There are far more differences that have yet to be addressed in the comic but have been covered in the insider and various Q & A posts in the forum. Loroi society is a caste based stratocracy, with the various warrior castes having firm control of the society at large. The civilian underclass is la...

Based on some cursory checking on the massive backstory database, it seems to me that the main things that make the Loroi different from Earth women are: 1. They are telepaths. Some are even low-tier superheroes thanks to PK. 2. The society is dominated by women. 3. Reasons I cannot understand....c...

Anyone with sufficient PK power to lift her own weight can "fly" after a fashion in a gravity well, but in a microgravity environment any PK at all can be used as a meaningful thrust to take you where you want to go. Also, dead starships don't sink, so unless they explode outright, a ship can be de...

If it is any consolation Alex is in relatively good hands if Fireblade chooses to protect him. According to Arioch, Fireblade has survived her ship being destroyed TWICE in the past. And she can even FLY via her telekinesis. Not to mention mess up stuff she is affronted by. She is basically a super...

I would enjoy seeing them on a game show....maybe Surivor or Hell's Kitchen? Survivor: Putting Talon and Spiral together with the group will make voting kind of lopsided since they are like BFF's. Tempo would have little problem eating grubworms and whatever gross food challenges come her way. Beryl...

Talking about the military, how well would humans do in 'wargames' if the scenario *assumed* they had identical tech compared to the Loroi. Well, this involves an awful lot of hypotheticals, so let's just say "we'll find out." I find that often people view humanity as unusually warlike... of course...

The difference between a rocket and a bomb is that one directs the blast in one direction and the other goes all over the place. Energy resources on par with antimatter that are not antimatter can be utliized all sorts of ways besides mere missiles. But as I have said and you have implied more or le...

New question. I take it Loroi have blue blood right? I sawy that because Spiral had her tongue out making a silly face and it was all blue including her gums. Also Beryl blushed blue as well. The weird thing is the eye iris color. Spiral's eyes are blue...so her eyes are the same color, only somewha...

Science fiction is often about either the 'future' or what if? Since no one can reliably predict the future, I have more interest in 'what if'. If I hear about nertial damperners or gravity generators I automatically accept it since we have no known way of explaining it. On the other hand, when real...

My theory on the boarding party: It's not a true Umiak ship, but something controlled by the Historians. I suspected as much...they are good at hacking, and a random Umiak would have torpedoed threm unless Kik tik said not to. If it IS Umiak, then Fireblade is going to wreck them unless the Umiak a...

I'm not sure this is the kind of story where the antagonists are defeated by this one cool trick that everyone except humans are too retarded to have figured out over 1000 years of interstellar war history. Perhaps not, but I am only watching these guys and gals and seeing what seems obvious to me....

I have known of the Outsider comic for a while, but I did not start really keep reading it with interest until the advent of the green haired 'biscuit graveyard', which probably means silly and dead from her teammate. Spiral I love, and her quirky way of speech and cuteness have drawn me to her as s...

The Loroi have mission specific escort cruisers designed for fleet defense. This also appears to be what the Umiak target first, as that was what the Winter TIde was in the battle we witnessed. It wasn't the missiles that took out the Winter Tide, is was the beam weapons once the Umiak got into ran...

Why build a weapon you can only use one time if you can create a ship that can fend off missiles and fill additional roles? If the Loroi use a bomb to destroy Umiak torpedoes, that's a guaranteed loss of resources for them. If the same task can be done by a ship, they still retain the resources the...

I get that, but my understanding is that the Umiak missile spam spans tens if not hundreds or thousands of kilometers. A 3 km diameter range anti-missile mine doesn't sound very effective. I assume the loroi are already using anti-missile systems. Loroi have mass into energy fuel...kind of like AM ...

That sounds like a lot of nukes will be needed to cover a standard battlefront. It's best used for countering the missile spam the Umiak use. I get that, but my understanding is that the Umiak missile spam spans tens if not hundreds or thousands of kilometers. A 3 km diameter range anti-missile min...

Powerful enough nukes in space can still do some light ablative damage at a kilometer. AM or the Loroi equivalent if powerful enough I reckon could at least wipe out three kilometers or somewhat less with sheer thermal radiation. That sounds like a lot of nukes will be needed to cover a standard ba...

1. I know the story as is could not happen otherwise, so is that why Loroi pilot their own space war vessels? It is an easy thing to automate robo-combat vessels that could reduce war casualties and screen Loroi command vessels from attack. It seems a rather logical course to reduce death. It would...

Hopefully this has not already been answered but I wanted to know just a few questions,as I am familar with KSP (Kerbal Space Program). 1. I know the story as is could not happen otherwise, so is that why Loroi pilot their own space war vessels? It is an easy thing to automate robo-combat vessels th...
