Prayers for the people in New Orleans. I hope we don’t have a pattern here, but that’s what it looks like. Hitting as many people as possible, shooting at police, and greeting responders with a bomb is not casual evil. It’s a recipe for a nightmare.

The Skipray was a small gunship with a power curve far beyond something its size would normally have. It was a gunship posing as a starfighter. As a result, it could easily be supported by Corvettes for R&R, and hence made ubiquitous across the Galaxy, wherever the Imperials had holdings. I am...

Yes, “gunship” is the next class up, size like the Paladin. A Mirai gunship would be nice. Something scout-sized with a twist we haven’t seen. I’d personally like to see two remote triple turrets, triple S4 guns for the pilot and a bubble bridge for three crew akin to the Reliant. 3x3S7 torps...

“The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) sent New Jersey State Police a “drone-specific radar that also cues a highly capable EO/IR, or electro-optical infrared camera system,” a DHS official told reporters. “If the radar detects a drone, the camera will be able to identify and track it,” the...

Welcome aboard. Yes. We have no standards except that you must drink beer, even warm swill; to find acceptance.

So for those following the online Star Wars uproar, or who have an interest— the disclosure that Disney is spending more than twice as much on Andor as it did in Kenobi, is not really surprising. Fans are indignant because they see this as yet one more instance of management (Kathleen Kennedy)...

It could be that 40k is just scarier. I’m actually mostly a fan of House Davion, but Steiner and Davion both go through grey times. Davion is supposedly modeled after the British-French knightly dynasties, while Steiner is German. When they combine they do some great things but that only lasts a...

There’s a warning going out in other SC communities that players can enter your personal hanger, kill you and loot your stuff. No details available but the seriousness of the claim warrants some investigation.

It’s not saying every faction in Warhammer is dedicated to evil, but even the T’au, who are dedicated to “the greater good” sear the flesh from the bones of any people they want to annex unless they join them willingly. On a more complex, philosophical note; the T’au are wholly utilitarian...

I want ancient Atlantean knowledge too. Gimme some o’ dat.

I used to agree with this above and for the most part I still do, but for the central thesis, that we need good guys to root for, I think that time is long gone. Ever since the close of Hollywood’s golden age in the 50’s we’ve had Tarantino types looking down their noses at any story where good...

Merry Christmas all! https://www.youtube.com/live/UTKE-6-akF8?si=U51y4m0HAhkqTwn9

That has always been what puts me off the franchise. It’s truly bloodthirsty and there are no good guys. I know it has a huge fan base but I still think FASA, Battletech, Mechwarrior is a better franchise for feature films.

You would think this is a meteor breaking up on entry, except this has been sighted dozens of times all around the world in the last three weeks. https://www.facebook.com/share/v/1AwhLeYn3a/?mibextid=UalRPS

So you must have an explanation for the tens of thousands of sightings over the last month, of objects with no visible means of propulsion, changing direction and pulling dozens or hundreds of gee forces. Please do share.

I’m not very interested in the drones. Whether they’re chasing orbs or scanning for radioactive materials on the ground, they’re ours. They’re interesting when they fire rockets at the Orbs, but the really interesting thing to me are the Orbs themselves. They’re executing high gee turns...

Next gen US gunship or some stupid teenager’s prank video? https://www.facebook.com/share/r/15hLA8vXo4/?mibextid=UalRPS

I’ve analyzed the video above and attached here again for quite some time, and it’s not consistent with any kind of weapon I’m familiar with. In particular, when what looks like projectiles reach a specific range, they seem to dissipate or wink out. If these were rockets the plume would be...
