Posters with blueprint-style drawings of various ship classes. Maybe cut away to show room arrangements, in the style of those DK cutaway books pretty much everyone autistic on the Internet used to read.

*DING*

Did someone mention shipporn?

You have a good point- where are the vital organs on that thing? Inside the armored body obviously. Barring access, I'd try severing the semi-flexible 'neck', or as many of the 'eyes' as quickly as possible, and hoping there isn't a sort of infrared or motion detector on the main body that can't be...

I wonder if in the previous page Beryl was pinned as well by the hardtrooper. She lost her rifle then, and now I wonder if the "helping hand" picking Alex' dropped gun is hers or Alex preparing for a blind shot.

There've been hiatus in the past. I trust at some point Arioch will find time an/or inclination again to continue.

Why did Taben have significantly less bloody warfare compared to Deinar?

SpoilerShow

Because they had less land to fight over.

Slapstick!

Since moving to the Philippines for retirement (I am 65), the possibility of finding 2 to 5 people to run any kind of Old-School TTRPG in person is asymptotically zero.

Can't be more difficult then providing air tickets and lodging?

Where might some of these enclaves and reserves be on Mestirot?

On undesirable land (deserts, swamplands, steep mountainranges,...).

So their pointy ears are an evolutionary vestige? Like an appendix?

As far as we know, the Loroi are a designed species (by the Soia), whatever they might think of themselves.

't Is nothing. Just a starhanger instead of the good ol' cliffhanger...

Another possibility is that hardtrooper armor can take a couple shots at half strenghts setting.

It occurs to me that if the umiaks are using some kind of psionic detection equipment, they might not know that Alex is even there.

"Loroi head in a jar" anyone?

And THIS is why no sane alien race wants to make open contact with the humans of Sol III... 'Yaw so Violent and ALL Crazy!'

'snicker' {this is my teasing tone}

I guess this calls for an appropiate number of ROG's (Rods of God).

EDIT: And actual sea battleships with laser cannons could fire waaay more than spaceships before overheating since they have the ocean to dump heat into.

Copy that. Missiles with heat-sensors launched...

Knitted by mandibles no less!

And likely also not in Oxygen-filled environments.

If that's the case, would you consider a particle beam shot into a planetary atmosphere (with a large percentage of oxygen in it) a weapon of mass destruction?

I really doubt anything can be ejected from ship during jump. As description says "The jump is nearly instantaneous, so there is not much you can do while in hyperspace." In that context "nearly" likely meaning interval only atomic clock can measure. I had thought of an automated process. Ship jump...

Regarding losing connection with Spiral's engineering team - the connection was through Senzai, so the only thing that can disrupt the connection is if Spiral died or lost consciousness, right? Telepathy damping field technology? Then it should already be portable, and accessable by low-ranking Umi...

"...while Cloud digs a trench." That she will later be buried in. An interesting thought there. What happens with bodies (or objects of any other kind) that are ejected from a ship during hyperspace transit? Arioch said that a transit does take some time from the perspective of outside clocks, even...

Nice drawing of Reed.

So can we take it Reed is a native of the Menelos region?

This is news. So while sanzai is direct and truthful, a Loroi can choose whether to broadcast the message openly or keep it exclusive between herself and one other. Hence how two Loroi might be able to keep a secret.
