The red dot is Bellarmine.

The slim chance of the Umiak having no intention of killing her. The chance that Ashrain breaking formation will draw all their fire, by virtue of offering a much more valuable target. The chance that the Umiak shots fired have only been aimed at her because she's been the only ship in that weapons...

I'll agree that the Umiak firing on Winter Tide, forming up specifically against Winter Tide, and that Arclight's statement that Winter Tide is "the target" all very strongly indicate that Winter Tide is doomed. What's worse, the manner of the Bellarmine's destruction indicates that whoever killed ...

Plus, they're space amazons. What more needs to be said?

If Winter Tide can't maneuver, she's dead; at these ranges, I think it's guaranteed that the Umiak will have a solid firing solution on her, especially winged as she is. Her only hope, as far as I can see, is whatever toy Black Razor and her squadron are deploying.

Do you mean Tempest? And I think you're taking it to extremes. First of all, there are many Loroi on the ship that we have seen who are not exactly supernally attractive (whether or not this is by Arioch's design, or just because minor characters didn't necessitate the time to make them attractive r...

Unless these "Tolot Blisters" can put some serious hurt on the Umiak, it looks like Winter Tide's about to buy the farm.

Arioch, is there any... I guess you could call it "command tension" between Stillstorm and Ashrain?

Good to have you back.

Very true. Hopefully we'll be seeing more of Nova soon....

Think about it this way: what happened to the Germans when they lost air superiority over Europe? It's essentially the same scenario. While the tactical use of orbital weapons is perhaps debatable, the loss of naval superiority in orbit around the planet will allow the Logieri to track the movements...

Welcome! But be warned: here be dragons.

At the risk of becoming shrill, I would again suggest Minimus as a format that is simple, easy, and free to access. If nothing else, give it a brief look; it's only two pages of rules. http://adastragames.com/discus.html The bottom link is the most recent version, I believe.

It doesn't even have to be an outsider-based rpg. Particularly since, canon issues aside, the non-military role-play opportunities are somewhat limited for a human-loroi campaign. Restricting it to the human area of space would alleviate a great deal of the problems inherent in the setting, but that...

The dice are one thing, but I think having a structured framework for the organization of combat/tasks and in general just a more formalized framework would be a definite improvement. That said, you still have to come up with something that'll work.

I might be willing to run something for an RPG, but it would need a little more structure, I think.

This is going to take some getting used to. But if it lets people actually join the forums, it's a good change.

And it's not like we're a super-big community needing "crowd control."
