Other than the 'Trojan Horse' what other tactics might catch an alien race off guard?

[@nosotrosloslobosestamosreg4115]

Opening the gates and only the general is in the city, playing a lyre

[@GrigoriZhukov]

The obvious decoy fleet, that isn't.

[@ContagiousRepublic]

All of them, since humans will MAKE them work 'cause fuck yeah, LOL

[@Lu-uo8lq]

The null drive AI powered, particle canon armed ships

[@martinwyke]

Perfidy in general, concealed reserves, smoke screens (particle, chaff, debris, asteroids), Q-Ships, fighters riding/piggy-backing. Mines in an open corridor. The good old faux retreats to separate the light-fast escorts/pickets from their charges.

[@monty671]

So glad there are a few Non-AI stories still left.

[@lordfrostdraken]

As a writer it is sad for me to think that there is the possibility that you have read everything that is available. Because there is no way you have. There are tens of thousands of stories you may never have heard of in just the science fiction genre alone, keep your head and heart alert, there will always be humans telling stories because that is what we do. Cheers mate, I hope you hold onto that love of creativity.

[@monty671]

@@lordfrostdraken With all due respect sir, you took this the complete opposite. I was liking that a real author and real narrator brought this story to life. Many of the KZbin story channels are going full AI. This had life.

[@lordfrostdraken]

@@monty671 Oh, my bad.

[@hopepro1267]

Starboard has recently started doing the human voice and all of agro squirrels are all human hes really good

[@lordfrostdraken]

@@hopepro1267 yeah, Agro has done some of my work in the past. He did a great job.

[@deborahmcneil747]

You did this very well. Much better than the AI voices. I like your changes to character voices

[@randyshamblin232]

I don't know where you get all these wonderful stories, but they are perfect, and the telling is masterful, artwork of it's own.

[@StarboundHFY]

thank you! we write them ourself :)

[@Acoolnamme]

Damm what are those shields powered by? The death star?!

[@pamarnold9378]

Reminds me of Runyard Kipling's 'A Pict song'.

[@user-ee6jp2zi2r]

How about helping a wounded comrade, only to find its a trap... in fact, hardly see a human... but we're finding there mark

[@blackcountryme]

When i hear the description of the space battles, i remember the PC game homeworld.

[@woozleboy]

AI narration simply fails at some mispronounced words repeatedly and it breaks the scene. Glad to have narration I can listen to.

[@ericl3870]

Try the commonwealth universe of Allen Dean Foster

[@TheBarracuda]

Love the thumbnail!

[@youaregodspursuit]

Hmm... an old story fleshed out and driven home.

[@Christopher_J_1960]

Thanks!

[@StarboundHFY]

Thank you so much Christopher! The support goes a long way and the team send you a big thanks!

[@sandralouth3103]

I'd love to hear a story where the scary insect beings were on the side of right and justice forcing humans to confront their xenophobia.

[@duckfootdk]

read polar city blues

[@jamesogden7756]

HFY stories don't. Go elsewhere.

[@whyjnot420]

Clicked this just to marvel at the thumbnail's text. (already subbed)

[@blackcountryme]

That thumbnail looks like the Old Battlestar Galactica

[@dcmbrown]

Hey look (5:08), it's a trailer park version of the Galactica.

[@Kappa760]

Good

[@Tube_America]

Your voice inflections are very good! But you're missing one thing. The ability to imitate a female. Just so you won't be so bored you can make THIS a team! Keep it up!

[@jamesogden7756]

Holy shiznit Batman! You looking to get canceled? Saying a man can't imitate a wo........ Ooooh. Right. Right.

[@brett76544]

A real voice, so much better than the AI voices and AI generated stories with a Z named general and V named race.

[@edhenderson1655]

Greater love hath no Meekan, then that they lay down their lives for others.

[@rebeccaconlon9743]

Jacta al i est, i think?

[@thelonelyman-lz8fz]

More human voice actors

[@ericmightywombatprince]

Ya really, the Meekan or American .

[@VSG117]

I can't deal with all the goofy voices

[@tims8326]

Awful story, but well read.

[@louellacharlton4425]

Wow constitutional republic in space. Woo-hoo.

[@craigbothma4725]

It may be human read, but it is definitely AI generated. You can tell by the overuse of adjectives. Also, these stories are basically the same plot over and over again. Quite sad, really.
