Re: Page 165: Dalid is Dalid
I'd argue that there is an element of fear which is inherently irrational. Fear is an emotion. The opposite of fear is not foolhardiness or reckless abandon; it is confidence. You can be cautious and have respect for danger without being fearful. Fear is not healthy or wise. Fear is the mind-killer...

Re: Page 165: Dalid is Dalid
"Fear profits a man nothing." I disagree. Fear is healthy. It teaches caution and respect of the unknown or that which we have no control over. It informs us when we must favor security and survival over taking unnecessary risk and reckless abandon. Foolhardiness also profits a man nothing where wis...

Re: Page 155: But hang on...
"This construct has been in the data banks aboard your ship..." Did the Historian admit to having infiltrated the Bellarmine's data banks before it was shot to smithereens, or did the Historian mean that it was in the data banks "recovered from" the Bellarmine? Little quibble, but the first wording...

Re: What does YOUR Name Mean?
Depending on who you ask, my first name in Gaelic means "The Falcon", in Anglo-Saxon, "The Sea Fort". My 2nd name in Mandarin means, "The Wise". My last name means, "The younger". Roughly translated it either means, "Falcon of the Wise and Young" or "Sea Fort of the Wise and Young". In Mandarin, my ...

Re: A Call to... Arms - Page 127
I've been thinking about this, but it's possible Loroi feel "nothing" physiologically like humans do regarding touch. Human's release the hormone oxytocin when hugging or other forms of affectionate physical contact are initiated as a way to enhance bonding among species, as well as some physiologic...

Re: Page 120!
Just to dig the thorn in a bit more, many of our words used to have much more reasonable spellings... before the sounds changed. "Knight", for example, gained it's approximate spelling during a period of time when the k and g were actually pronounced, but then the pronunciation changed without the ...

Beryl needed several trigger warnings walking into the sight of that "handshake" and hearing those words in those...

The Physics of Space Battles
An interesting article on iO9 on speculating on the topic of what space battles could look like in real life by Joseph Shoer, an aerospace engineer studying modular spacecraft assembly. http://gizmodo.com/5426453/the-physics-of-space-battles?utm_campaign=socialflow_io9_facebook&utm_source=io9_facebo...

Re: Miscellaneous Loroi question-and-answer thread
What if in a plot twist, the Loroi males are the actual child bearers and ones who get pregnant of the species? That would make sense that access to them is "restricted". I know that's not really the case as Arioch has probably settled this but all this talk about males and females roles about who i...

I wonder if Paradox is making this game with a new engine? That would be sick.bastionsystems wrote: But on the other hand their strength lies in creating historical games with their Clausewitz Engine that may not be flexible enough for a space empires game.
