Spiders.... spiders... doesn't ring a bell.... OH! You mean those little Umiak-bred spy species?

Re: Page 107 Discussion

In the current situation, where the Loroi look like the lesser evil (although it is not up to Alex to decide that, and the truth of everything he saw and witnessed may be questionable) Well, they're definately the cuter evil. Who are we kidding, unless Humaniti changed a lot, then the choice betwee...

Re: Page 107 Discussion

That look on her face is absolute gold. Good thing Alex stuck to metric. If he'd started reciting imperial measurements I think her head would have exploded. :lol: I don't think it would have made much of a difference: metric is convenient because we settled on a base-10 numerical system. There's e...

Re: Page 106 discussion

Hello, It's me again, with yet another complaint about the harness: one of the hip straps visible on page 105 (last panel) seems to have disappeared on page 106 (first panel).

With that out of the way...
Yay! A new page! :D

Re: Page 105 discussion

Or Arioch thought it would look weird if the seat belt was the same design as humans use. Sometimes you need a reminder that aliens think differently. But they are using the same design as humans use. Had they not used the harness at all, I'd have no objections - I'd assume the inertial dampers wou...

Re: Page 105 discussion

Is that a 5-point harness she's puting him in? How? That seat is obviosly not suitable for such a harness. What's more, if there's a possible need of restraining the body with such a harness you'd also need a HANS device (restricting the movement of the head, acts like an airbag. Or even better - a ...

Re: Did Russia win WWII?

I guess the way I see it, deciding to invade Russia was by far Hitler's biggest military blunder of the entire war, but trying to imagine what WW2 would have been like if he hadn't stretches so far into the realm of imagination that I wouldn't even hazard a guess. He made at least two severe blunde...

Re: WIP Discussion (Part 1!)

So that would leave us with digital records. That in turn would require them to secure a working device. Speaking of which... was there any mention of what happened to Alex's space suit? Sure, the helmet is cracked, the oxygen tanks are empty (what, we're supposedly about 150 years in the future an...

Re: WIP Discussion (Part 1!)

One think that people don't understand about the military lifestyle is that pornographic material is not allowed, ever. Take it from a conscript, currently in the reserves. We weren't allowed any sort of porn in the barracks and the punishments were heavy for various infractions; no one risked havi...

Re: WIP Discussion (Part 1!)

Another thing... Do you know what a really, really scary thought would be? Loroi picking through the wreckage of the Bellarmine and sifting though the belongings of the crew, finding the occasional pin-up and x-rated movies. I mean, think about that - they had time enough to recover fifty-seven dea...

Re: Page 104 discussion.

Once I found that Outsider was updated with not one, but two pages since I've last visited surprise was no longer adequate and I had to resort to astonishment (apologies to late Douglas Adams for stealing his line).
Awesome. I'm eagerly awaiting further updates.
