I cant wait for it.

Just practice.

The mothership I designed for a (failed) hard sci-fi RP.

Bump.

@PaleAbyss I think it would add a lot of bulk to this story if we could plot out the economical landscape that made it all possible. In the real world, most historical pirates began their carreers as corsairs. Armed ships underhandily hired by some nation to bully the commerce ships of other...

Hello. I'm no one. Ok, I'll cut the attitude. I'm Sandstorm, and long have I been looking for an opportunity to use this virtual enviroment as a stage to hone my worldbuilding, writing and even social skills so that one day I may write very rich stories inhabiting well-crafted worlds, and share...

Uncharted Star 3FGH-EE Planet Maltryk - Geostationary Orbit Starship Ibn Battuta @Harmalite @Tardy Grade @Snorble211 Kansh tensed for a second as Rerryn gave her standard rash "I get it" signal. He understood her conditioned discomfort with others, but this violent intolerance for positive...

He3 is rare? By no means, Jupiter and Saturn have it in their atmospheres, you can scoop it from them. It's fusion; you dont need a lot of fuel for that type of power. And no, there is no high-tech handwaving for neutron radiation. The only way to stop a neutron is to make it sink into an atomic...

Ok. Who has fusion power? Obviously, whoever has the stuff set up in his colony is pretty much set for domintating his surroundings, and any settlements that dont have fusion power will have problems making their mark in the system. And what type? Deuterium-Deuterium? Deuterium-Tritium...

Yes, I understand why you mentioned Mars landers having chem-rockets instead of ion drives; I was just contesting your claim that the smaller ships would be slower than the fusion-bearing vessels. Actualy, what type of fusion rocket are you using? Drives that take their thrust straight out of...

Well, assuming you've got a meaty source of electricity. And a lot of time.

Sounds good, but dont make the mistake of calling one propulsion method "slower" than the other. To travel to locations around the solar system, they all have to develop the same speeds, and since the timeframes for interplanetary travel are already huge, the time they take to develop those...

@Shireling @Fishman Lord @Wandering Grim Hollow @General Deth Glitch Maybe we should first establish more firmly what level of technology the colonies in Sol were at when the War happened. It will bite all of you in the ass if you dont set in stone what has been acomplished in technological...
