The Terran fleet, vastly outnumbered by the sleek, heavily armored warships of the Vanduul, seems pitiful. The Vanduul, a race known for their arrogance and overwhelming firepower, charge in for an easy victory. But humanity, underestimated and ingenious, has a secret weapon: a massive network of undetectable mines hidden throughout hyperspace, sown by their nimble, expendable ships. The Vanduul, trapped in a kill zone of their own making, must face the wrath of a human race fighting for survival.

And that's why they carry flashlights to you know. Something military cannot leave behind.Neither can campers either.
Ignore those complaining about you asking people to subscribed. These are the type of people that when given $20 from a complete stranger when spend the rest of the day complaining and in a bad mood that it wasn't $25. You're putting out good stories in a HUMAN voice and just trying to grow your channel. Best of luck.
Nah. The reason to ignore them is... because it works. Plenty of youtubers have shown statistical data to show what happens the moment they say it as opposed to not. It.
Works.
love humans reading human made stories
Yea, the AI read stores are not worth listening to. Enjoy live readings.
With grim determination I hit play.
With grim determination I listened to the story and
With grim determination... I hit like and subscribed for the only HFY channel on youtube actually read by a human.
Then also check out Agro Squirrel Narrates. ASN not only is a human, he actually tells the story onscreen while dressed up, and he has a ton of stories.
+1 for ASN
What the hell brought me to tears. The piano, the voice acting. Amazing
I love how these stories forget that space ships are not bucking their way through air.
in space, nobody can hear another ship rumble. Completely takes you out for the story.
@@michaelmoolick9419Energy shockwaves or something!
I know it isn’t realistic, it’s still fun to listen to.
@@pheonixblue01 With some sort of explanation it can be done well. In Ralt's Bloodthrone's First Contact series the tech to herald your fleet's arrival is in use my many factions. My favorite is the terran fleets. Who somehow make flat surfaces resonate out the battle cry "HEAVY METAL IS HERE" when they enter the system and are going to throw down.
I'm so glad that what I'm writing is hard Sci Fi.
I hit the subscribe button with a grim determination.
So many small nods to a certain game, i can't imagine it's all a coincidence. Thank you for taking the time to read these, it really improves the quality of the stories.
Only hyfy channel worth listening too. Great stories, great narration. Simply endearing. Every story is my kind of beautiful and terrible dream.
Wow, thank you!
Those complaining about the mid vid msg: I totally understand but people skip the beginning and end msgs/requests. By putting it in the middle most of us are just listening not looking at the screen and their request will actually reach the audience. It’s also very efficient, words are chosen carefully so the interruption is only a few seconds. I think we can spare a few seconds for one of the few quality storytelling channels.
Have a heart guys.
I agree with you... it is worth it ... especially if it can enlarge the community that comes to listen to these excellent (most of them) stories
I completely agree with jstone4351. Ignore those who complain you are asking people to subscribe. Your requests to subscribe are appropriate and tasteful. And asking for the customer's business is a time honored and accepted tradition. So is a commercial in a TV show, and you only ask once. You do a really great job with your human voice. So in the words of my generation (60's-70's),
KEEP ON KEEPING ON!
Really good story better then a lot out there in sci-fi world kept up the good work !
Curious thought came to me...why didn't the crew of the Dauntless secure the power units from the escape pods? Certainly would have given them time to perhaps make critical repairs? Good story, I am binge watching all your stories, about 90% better than any others.
And for decades afterward, innocent children playing in the depths of space were in danger of maiming themselves on a mine hidden under an asteroid.
This was beautiful. I loved the piano too. The effort you put into this is admirable. Thank you :)
Alright! I officially joined the patreon. We need to keep this going :)
this story maid me pearl a tear there was so much emotion good job man good job
Well done
Excellent!
Should do the subscribe part at the end so the immersion isn't broken. Good stories here on par with channels I listen to with a lot of subscribers maybe some people are really thrown off by the middle interruption. Thank you though I lm a fan and subscribed.
"delicious Vanduul chunks..." yummy!
😋
I admire your work. It is very well done.
I wonder if you have ever considered that occasionally earth wins because of wily, somewhat questionable tactics? I mean -- what if galactic predators, the bane of the galactic council, were running rampant, subjugating races and destroying things let earth alone because it appeared neutral, but had a secret agreement with the aliens to build the ships and war materials for the aggressors? The aggressive aliens were making more and more inroads, taking more and more territory and the galactic council was weak and unable to cope.
But after a century, the alien predators slowly faced equipment and system failures. They started small, but grew and grew worse. In less than a decade, the villains of our story were losing badly, their fleets in disarray, equipment behaving badly, communications sketchy at best, until....
Well, things started blowing up. Fusion reactors ignited and wiped out massive portions of the home planets of the aliens. In another decade, they were grounded and pounded back to the stone age.
And earth remained neutral. It was prospering more than ever.
It turns out that earth corporatism saved the day (or, in this case, the century). You see, in order to make more profit, the manufacturing facilities of earth catering to those horrid invaders, used cheap shoddy materials, skimped on processing costs and shorted the quality control inspection processes -- but they did it in such a way that there was an undeclared shelf life of... you guessed it: 100 years.
The behind the scenes look at the end would find conspiracy collaboration of corporatism where the government and corporations became totally corrupt. Of course, they still made very high quality lasting products, but kept those on earth. Presidents and CEOs insured the directors and supervisors would hire just the right low level poorly trained employees for minimum wage in the factories of the off planet divisions making these poorly made highly engineered products guaranteed to work perfectly right up to the end of the warranty. Dissatisfied customer aliens? We're so sorry, your warranty has expired. We don't make those parts that failed any more.
The galactic council prospered and never knew why. Earth was finally allowed to join, but only as associates because the council was suspicious of the relationship the earth seemed to have with those pesky invaders, little knowing that earth was the hero and saved them, but quietly remained anonymous in their efforts to save the galaxy through subterfuge.
So, a so ship drops mines behind it and suddenly the ship is inaccessible from any other direction? What happened to going around the mines? Or did that mine field bisect the universe?
IMO, you'd be better served finding original, public domain, stories than relying on AI generated fiction. I pop in periodically because i think it's interesting to find the glaring plot holes and heavily tortured metaphors. Regardless, good luck with your channel! I hope you're able to discover that magic combination of factors that makes it successful.
You would think that the mines would have an IFF feature.
Honestly asking someone to sub is the very least I’d expect in exchange for the great content!
My only pet peeve is asking for sub at very beginning 1 min as opposed to after consuming some content! Which doesn’t apply here so null point
Wait how long was the Dauntless drifting
I would take a little tiny engine from like a computer council or something like that. To recharge. The battery in a bicycle fashion. Would you give fashion a make and have some pedal? A bike for a couple hours to get a kilo. A lot of battery and it keeps off switching and out of my key in the place, using 450 W of it to make. And then from there. I use lighting systems which I use private but 25 W for a light and find out how to fix the ship. One system at a time, starting with the controls and engines, as well as medical. Which would end up using a lot of Watts? But for now, you can charge several batteries and of people bicycli'm just quite easy to make something out of a computer little motor thing and some magnets. Of course, you'd have to use prior electric record for a bicycle, pedal or chain, I should say.
OR you do something in that factor?
.."ingenuity", learning enghish listening your stories..
Thanks for the amazing content! But the reminder is in the middle of your stories are making me second guess being subscribe to this channel man, you can put that at the beginning or the end but it just ruins the atmosphere that you do such a good job creating. Please for the love of God move it to the beginning of the end 😂
Thank you for the donation! The reminder is removed in our newer videos and won’t be in future ones
Why have windows in a starship? Nothing to see with the naked eye.
Please repeat more that the Dauntless was on a suicide mission.
With grim determination...
Great story and I do really like the human voice because most of the AI is awful.
I subscribed to hear a human read the story. I tire of the AI read cookie-cutter stories.
Can you please put ads at the beginning or end.
Suddenly hearing about using north Dakota as a nation for some stupid game really shuts things down.
Improvisation is our forte.
Unfortunately I have to join the club when I say having the "Like, Follow and Subscribe " bit in the middle of the video instead of the end or beginning is pretty jarring.
Day 4 protesting the interrupting 'subscribe' add. Please make it in the beginning or end of the video, with no interruptions to the story.
Wow,,, You're the besr non-AI voice around!
You must read a lot of books!
Have a GF that's like you yet?
Good story but you really nee a thesaurus. Stop using vast, desperate, desperation, and defiance...especially multiple times in a story.
i actually unsubed when you canme up with that begging break.. do it at the start....
As long you ask for a subscription so fast i never subscribe to you, first show more content instead of interupting that fast.
Another uninspiring, repetitive, AI story. It is truly remarkable how unimaginative AI is, both in plots and language
