I feel that I must point out that Ford's antics are not good news for Harper since the two are nominal allies (Harper gained his majority on the backs of the so called 'Ford Nation'). Ford presents something of a long term threat to the Cons since the social conservatives (primarily in the west) are...

So I was planning on posting Chapter Eleven tonight. The plot of the chapter deals with a shoot out between Imperials and those who aren't happy about their actions, and a lot of civilians get caught in the crossfire. This chapter was completed back in March before life decided to club me upside the...

I have a beta and alpha for this one, someone who knows significantly more about Battletech than I do to make sure I don't screw things up with them too much. Also, the different kinds of insanity of the two universes are fun to play around with.

When I saw "Not durable" I mean that leaning against a wall could destroy the protective properties, or forming a crease in clothing that has two surfaces rub against each other. The whole reason these things work is that you have sparsely dispersed nano-scale spikes or fibres of low surface energy ...

On the one hand: cool. I've had projects based on this man's work. On the other: dammit, stop pushing the field forward while I'm still working on this sort of thing! Although with all of these sorts of things, there is something of a question of how durable these coatings actually are. PDMS is also...

I've got Seasonal Affective Disorder (it has been unpleasant in recent weeks) and I've been through some stressful periods, usually regarding schooling, so depression isn't something new for me. I actually can get oddly manic when depressed, although that is sort of a desire to just escape from what...

I'm afraid that due to current health issues I feel I will be unable to positively contribute to the game. Sorry guys.

Fuck, the Canadians would have roughed him up possibly and they're the nicest people on my continent. I can pretty much confirm that he would have undoubtedly suffered "an unfortunate accident in transit" while off camera somewhere. Hell, the cops are in deep shit because they were being brutal sad...

There's a reason I don't particularly feel like doing much more than the set up and the horrific realization of what has been unleashed.

I really only see fire after this point.

Mea culpa. I should have caught the problem in the credits, and I have since corrected it. I have also completely rewritten the backstory while keeping what I feel is the essence of what I wanted. Is this more acceptable?

Oh, I never meant for the character to be an out and out loon with TITAN virii crammed in his head. I meant for him to be a bitter man who had all of the inequalities of the Solar System shoved into his face after suffering catastrophic trauma and loss. He still uses his old skills to help, its just...

Changes have been made, refining the backstory and switching to a less rare morph.

Also, to check, will the first Skype session be tomorrow?

Let's see here... the second, somewhat more reasonable draft. Name: Artyom Yevgeniyovich Zolnerov Ego age: 81 Ego-gender: Male Concept: Crazy Russian Professor Background: Re-Instantiated Faction: Argonaut Motivation: Equality of access to resources and technology, by violent means if necessary Curr...

Prometheus has a big problem, and that is not that the plot does not work, it is that the implementation of the plot is so loose and sloppy that you can see a great movie within, but the problem is that how they move from Point A to Point B is highly problematic the majority of the time. Actually, ...

May 8, 1478 Once they had arrived back at the palace and Rogerio was safely within his private chambers, he was quickly disrobed by a bevy of servants, leaving him with the opportunity to breathe at last. Despite the fact that all scholarship said that noble and pure colours like white and gold did...

Ahem. I feel compelled to comment here in that both sides of this little argument have valid points. First, we kind of have been failing to properly chat with each other and flesh out the histories. I get the feeling that a lot of people have been talking with Ben and not talking with each other and...

Officially, Sicily follows an official stance similar to Occitania, with a somewhat more strongly worded support for the Spanish pope. However, their interests mostly lie in keeping all foreign interests out of waters they consider vital to the protection of their island holdings, so they are mostly...

Actually, the Spanish did claim the Baleares and I decided not to argue the point. It is why I have Tunisia.

7 May, 1478 "The Romans sure worked fast, didn't they Tankretti?" Rogerio noted as the ship bearing the ambassadorial delegation began to dock. "If Pope Sixtus did have a hand in the affairs of Florence then we can't really blame them for being jumpy. Such direct action could herald a resumption of...

Anno Domini 1478 1st of May The warm light of the spring sun in the Mediterranean rose behind the mountains of Palermo and received greetings from the inhabitants of the bustling city. From Mount Pellegrino, the city began to sparkle and flash like an enormous jewel as the industries began to get t...

There's a lot more coming in my OOB but I felt I should get something up in the time I had available today.

It wasn't a 'discover Archimedes work then become mega-prosperous' thing in this setting, it was a 400 year process that started with the discovery of the cache and the biggest thing was an influx of scholars interested in examining the artefacts. Those scholars were wealthy individuals, and the Nor...
