Maybe.... I think I MAY have gotten a bit more written than I posted... What's the furthest bit you've got?

I remember Matryoshka... As another old timer, welcome to the party, pal!

One thing to point out. A Zombie Apocalypse in the 1860s is going to actually have a major difference, and that's in the post outbreak period. In the 1860s, the VAST majority of people in the US, and I believe globally, were farmers, on small homesteads\family farms. There wasn't the...

You don't want to put them into every system while there are other systems that make more sense to colonize\inhabit with traditional colonies... But, once we've got all the other colonies operating at a net profit, then there's no reason NOT to start deploying those stations.

You are aware that, by the time you have a strategic need requiring emergency infrastructure, it's too late to pre-position emergency infrastructure.

[X] Off to baseball camp they go Also, minor question @LordSunhawk - Do those colony stations HAVE to be in orbit\proximity to a star? Could they be set up in an Oort cloud or near some rogue planet \ deep space point of interest?

[X] We can rebuild them, we have the technology

[X] Plan: Back in the good old days

Idle thought, but shouldn't somebody have mentioned that with that special ship jumping out causing the Black Fleet to lose their coherency... maybe there was some kind of brain bug on it... and maybe there were some communications signals enhancing their efficacy and maybe if we could ID that...

Magog World Ship (acquired at the point in time that the Andromeda Ascendant is 'within' it) Fifth Imperium Planetoid Ship (Terra Class sounds good) Alteran Seeder Ship (from SGU)

Like our racing team, I'd prefer Shut Up and Drive, but that's just me. And, once again, FASAnomics at play.

I wanted to make sure I understood what was being proposed by DOME. You're going to make a larger than planetary sized solar sail, spray expanding foam on it and 'moor' it between the planet and the gas giant... That's what's basically being described, right?
