It's the refit that was mentioned in the same scene that introduced Julia to the rest of the board. They're using it to fund their build up to full operational capacity on the Ring Factories as well as full reactivation of the ERPPC line until Olivetti gets around to ordering the stuff for their...

Have to flesh out characters somehow. Should be some more action in the next couple chapters ... so, next year this time if my recent update pattern holds.

A/N: Merry Christmas. After 5 months of failing to finish the second scene here, I blew through the rest of the update in an afternoon. Chapter 33 LCN Samanth Malik En route to Zenith Point, Catachan System Trellshire, Tamar Pact, Lyran Commonwealth October 21st, 3016 Tom resisted the urge...

The Amaris family really doesn’t have that excuse. They got much better treatment than the other Periphery powers. To the level that the Star League restored them to power after a revolt that damn near overthrew them. No, the Amarises had a snake pit as a court and seemed to view that as a...

The Rim Worlds Republic is what you get when spite is the primary deciding factor for government officials.

I'm just a lot more busy than I used to be. Don't have the time to write that I used to.

I actually reviewed aircraft crashes for inspiration here. It is very seldom one serious problem that causes an airplane to fall out of the sky. Usually it is a combination of half a dozen or a dozen little mistakes piling up.

A/N: Hey, waddaya know! it didn't eat my formatting this time! Chapter 32 Weber’s Holdfast, Catachan, Catachan System Trellshire, Tamar Pact, Lyran Commonwealth October 20th, 3016 “I’m really impressed by how quickly everything came together,” I commented to Julia as I shrugged off my suit...

Only thing that comes to mind. I don't think I have anyone in the story by that name, but I'd have to consult the series bible to be sure.

This. I do my best to make sure that if I’m using Endo or FF on a Mech, that some Endo or FF end up in in each section of that Mech. Keeps me from memeing too much if nothing else. That’s part of what I mean by going for realism. Other stuff is thinking about why certain decisions would have...

Commando, yes, but they aren’t actually making Wasps, they make Stingers. The design work is going to be on their own dime, they’re just taking inspiration from the wasp design, so they aren’t actually going to be licensing anything.

Interlude 4-CMW Port St. William, Veracruz, Coventry, Coventry System, Coventry Province, Protectorate of Donegal, Lyran Commonwealth March 12th, 3016 Simon Grantrel quietly cursed the distance between Coventry and its jump point. Twelve days had never seemed quite so long as it did on this...

Is this a request for a Coventry Metal Works Interlude? I think this is a request for a Coventry Metal Works Interlude.

The pixie isn’t perfect, but it’s a very solid Mech for Introtech. But, yeah, the machine guns’ ammo bomb is the one thing I consider an active weakness in the design.

Huh, so it does. I’d forgotten that.

Logistically and theoretically possible, but they'd have to figure out how to put a Chippewa's engine in it. That's the only 270FE that the Lyr Com makes. Dunno if it would be considered worthwhile until after New Dallas. The Ymir has been out of production a long time.

I went looking for that answer one time, but didn't find much. I have a feeling that they don't otherwise it wouldn't be Dracs that started making it again after the New Dallas core was found. I may save it for if I need a plot McGuffin, though.

I mean, it would have required a lot of work to turn the Crossbow into something usable. The company explicitly stopped making them rather than modernize the line. Likely cause being that MacEnroe Motors just didn't have the knowhow to get the job done, otherwise why stop making the Mech on the...

Technically I was banned some time later for trying to link people to the sietch from my profile. SB staff literally ignored their own rules to do it as well. Honestly it would have been amusing if it wasn't so pathetic. Definitely invites a discussion about ethical systems. The SB mod staff...
