To q2: cooldown. The energy supply of reactors is continuous, but strong lasers cannot fire continuously, due to heat buildup between the mirrors. So, the energy of teh reactor is channelled through a second laser system while the first cools down. This way the reactor output is better used than ju...

Well a lot of the coup factions were wealthy civillians who stood a lot to loose under greywinds rule. But it's true that for the rabble thye most certainly didn't care about who was in charge as long as she gets results.

Not sure about that Razor. Greywind did have to deal with and uprising farely soon after getting in to power.

Yeah i suppose i partially answered my own question but my point is more along the lines of what is the optimal starship design in the outsider setting. Given that from what we see this is a loroi trademark of design and that sort of tells me that no other culture with a military does the same thin...

hi hi As far as I can tell, all of the major spacecraft in the setting thus far have used multiple engine configurations, and as far as I know the reason for this is to aid with turning maneuvers while at combat accelerations. The Umiak use the design style in their Strike Cruiser And I can't find ...

Not to be snarky but if aft placement of the hangar is so logical why don't humanity do the same. I don't see how they could have a similar configuration on their warships. I think you've sort of answered your own question... It's the logical place to put it given Loroi ship design standards with t...

I'll spare you the bad puns Arioch and simply ask if docking from the rear is a common design feature on loroi warships?

Hello, I’m new to the board, been following the strip for 3-4 years. Recently I’ve started reading the background pages on the site. I’ve come up with an observation based on statements in the Loroi backgrounds. First, the Givens (cannon) : a 1 in 10 male, 9 in 10 females birth ratio. Life span of ...

The Loroi and Umiak are constantly fighting. A single scout that comes back with Loroi or Umiak wreckage would do a lot in that regard. what do you mean with a lot? Exactly how would they come back with a wreckage and from where? Salvaging operations if they are necessary have already been conducte...

Personally, I always liked the ANH era precisely because it left the Jedi out. Kept them romantic and let the everyman play a role. The one problem I've had with the universe is the constant portrayal of the Imperials as cliched, scenery munching badies. Yes its easy to make people hate puppy kicke...

Now I want to play it again. Dick. :P Nah hold that and wait for star citizen instead. If Robert get around to releasing it instead of adding more content. I was thinking, if the Historians are so advanced because they supposedly retained a lot of Soia tech. What are the chances that humanity could...

What inspiried the design for terran ships?

They look rather similar to the dagger class fighter from freelancer

This undbiased and scientific analysis was brought to you by a guy who is very biased and generally a prick. :lol: Anyway, I still don't see why the Loroi would subjugate humanity if they haven't done so with other main members of the Union, which are (certainly at this stage) more key to their sur...

Your point was already clear. Question is then, why haven't the Loroi already done that with other members of the Union, like the neridi, Pipolsid, or Barsam? 1. The barsam tough formally a warrior culture is devoted to peace and brotherhood. They have a certain rivalry with the loroi but that is m...

On the subject of names i'm afraid i'm on the more unimpressive side of the list. My first name means "God shall establish" or "Founded by God". My last name means literally Man of the east" and my middle names are somewhat bizarre actually. My first middle name means "Honored" or and i shit you not...

Well my boner is gone thanks a lot for that :evil: , and Starship Troopers that movie has forever tarnished the name of Robert A. Heinlein. You're quite welcome. :twisted: wow. Just. Wow. Nice pic.. "Galaxy of Terrors" {1981) ...right? Not quite... its from the movie starship troopers based on the ...

I know what xenophiles are and more importantly I know what pumped for information means :o Ahh. i see you are quite enjoying your little innuendos. Please allow me to ruin the mood :twisted: . http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-3wc0yDP99Js/Ttz6PtrrD_I/AAAAAAAABqk/_-fTLVW0Kd0/s1600/7.jpg Think about it... i...

Hello! I was wondering what the gender ratio of the Barsam or other species in the Union is, since the Loroi seemed so confused by ours. Surely, would they not expect us to be different? We are an alien species after all. Maybe the Barsam or Pipolsid have the same high gender ratios? Honestly I thi...
