Since it has happened MULTIPLE times now, I want to be very clear about this. You do not get to abandon an account and create a new one. You do not get to pass an account to someone else and create a new one. If you do so anyway, you will be banned for creating sockpuppets.

Interlude: New Avalon
She set at a desk at Yvonne's New Avalon estate, mulling another paper. Alexandria Cunningham looked at the communication. The battleroms from the periphery dominated the airwaves... that included ComStar's broadcasts of actions of Arkab Legion, Legion of Vega, and Sword...
3rd Luxen
If the boss had been here, he'd probably have had his Marauder hull down surrounded by holographic lights... and preparing to bait the enemy in the crushing embrace of double envelopment.
Beau knew the situation was wrong. The situation was wrong but trying to put that into words was...
The abridged explanation
The Brits problem in INdia was that the EIC made a lot of people very wealthy very quickly, and was increasingly moving to where the EIC monopoly was coming to an end, so other british companies were getting in on the action, so there was pressure on parliament to do...
The standard Uragan's biggest issue is its weight, with 1920s technology 16x600lb tubes (220mm) on a truck is plainly going to be too much. you might be able to drop it down to eight tubes but the rocket itself is not the issue its the weight of trying to fit 16 of them on one platform... it...
Late August 1924
Outside was dominated by the sounds of trucks moving equipment. There was a brisque but not alarmed character to the men going about their work. "I say John Allen really this all a bit much." Shan looked at the Englishman, and then back to the staff documents which occupied his...
Interlude 3rd Battle of Luxen
Last go round Black Jack had thrown what the MRB had called a Battalion strength OpFor. They'd gotten the payment for facing that, and the gratis for it being pirates on the MRB shit list. This was going to worse double or triple the last time... "We'll make it...
It'll make more sense when we get into Starfarer in c. 4717, there is machine tool;ing aboard but as with most of Numeria adjacent stuff its been sitting unusued or underutilized for a long timed
honestly not as much as you might assume by this point it is pushing the tech progression with machine tooling and interchangeable parts by Shaoyu's reign but there isn't a reliable way to go beyond simple circuitry yet and early radio loses out to magical abilities... unless you're in Alkenstar...
The sunlight was warm. The wind a fine breeze. Clean air abounded. What should have been a good day... it was a good day for actually conducting the tour.
It was the 7th year of her reign. Shaoyu did not appreciate the reminder of her coronation as she surveyed the complex weirds on the...
Demographics of Avistan
Major States
(Non exhaustive)
Note: before we begin I plan to put up teaser material for the sequel for this in the next few weeks in the misc thread. This is not dead, I do however need to rewrite a bunch of material from 4715 to the conclusion of this. Originally I was...
Departure Interlude
The data packages were processing. Dante was uncharacteristically quiet as he worked, and that left the command staff sitting in their chairs, or floating in microgravity waiting for the machines to come to life with news data from the ground side station. They weren't...
Its more correctly a Amaris's Hidden Army factory that was in the Rimward Periphery world of Pioche rather than one of the publicly declared Rimworld Republic factories inside the Rimworld proper.
Threadmarks: Future Projects: Magistracy of Canopus
Notes: For anyone reading Ghost in particular obviously the Magistracy is building and rebuilding Chargers off of a Black Box factory system that belonged to the Rim World originally, this is a design I've had in the works for a while now and its gone through a couple of tentative names, but its...
