Thread: Dirty Hands - Revision 1
Post: RE: Dirty Hands - Revision 1
The angelnet, as it's presented in the story, is actually one of Todd's notions (a lot of the better ideas in here were his, actually)...or at least, it's my own admittedly limited understanding of wh... |

Thread: need a mass ship graveyard
Post: RE: need a mass ship graveyard
No...sorry. The little "area" of space I've staked out is fairly early in the timeline. Hyades Cluster, in the Taurus Nexus, 2000 AT or so. So no Periphery War or Epp War, and Dawn Hunters wouldn't li... |

Okay, been chewing some of this over, because I...cough, thought I was mostly done, now it's looking like some more extensive re-writes - and apparently, re-conceptualizing - are necessary. Kind of ha... |

Thread: Dirty Hands (part 1 of 3)
Post: RE: Dirty Hands (part 1 of 3)
I like it. The other factor in play is that these nanobones would be year-4000, or what, 1500 A.T.? - tech, so they probably wouldn't be nearly as refined as versions that come later. But yeah...it wo... |
