Re: Page 87

I believe the Terrans will have a trick or two up their sleeves when it comes to space/ground combat, as we all hope it will. Only a fool would have sent out ambassadorial vessels with invitations to a Terran diplomatic fiesta if they weren't prepared to defend their worlds and populations in some f...

Re: Armor values

I have noticed many similarities between the Outsider-verse and the Master of Orion 2 verse, I hope no one will find it presumptuous of me to guess at a few things using MoO2 rules. The Umiak have tier 1: Titanium Armor The most basic grade of ship-building metal, known in many forums as "cardboard"...

Re: two questions about the Loroi Military

I was thinking something more along the line of transporters obtained from the Orgus (the Orgus would have researched the technology and used them to quickly transport their freight to hasten trade.)
