In average use, nonexistent. The Skycraft was never designed to cope with entering and leaving the atmosphere; and indeed relies upon air intake for the cooling of it's engine and AI-housing servers. However; TechTown exists on the brink of FT; -although other, alien civilizations could be FT simult...
...apologies, while TechTown AI are rather advanced; and there are a number of personality imprints among us, there are some areas where we fall short of understanding the subtleties of human communications. This.. this IS a joke; right? The Nation in question has voted against the proposal, it is s...
If I actually ruled a country, I'd run screaming out of the door. Down the street. Taking off any ceremonial vestments I wore. Never to be seen again. But if I was 'only' a high-ranking politician, I'd probably donate large amounts of my salary to charities/back into the government. Partially becaus...
Apparently uniquely in the NSverse; TechTown is a mech-user, but deploys dozens of meter-high mecha Drones as swarms for combat purposes. As opposed to the singular heavy weapon platforms akin to tanks used by the majority of Nations. We do technically have a piloted combat Mech-Drone. One. And that...
( Image ) IUE-H is the most common battle "mech" in Imperial Service. It is most commonly used in urban warfare or insurrection deterrent campaigns. This looks familiar.. How large is that mech? It really does remind me of a TechTown drone, though I'm beginning to suspect that I'm the onl...
...well, this sucks. Was really looking forward to what was going to happen here; though I'm certainly not OP material. I am...I've Rped and made two RP's, been Co-op for many more.. I'm not joking either. http://4.bp.blogspot.com/--mpqjtaugAo/UGd8kpRQIVI/AAAAAAAAhAQ/REUR2p606yc/s1600/get-on-with-i...
We have no need for puny robots, as our well-trained giant monsters are more than capable of smashing them to electronic garbage and ripping them limb from limb. Has anyone here actually thought up realistic control schemes for their mechs? Seriously. Controlling a robot humanoid equipped with rock...

Unfortunately, it's the aggressive buggers which are best at surviving the cold. But then they're bad at grooming and there's varroa mites to deal with...
Beekeeping. No, really. Though I haven't any bees right now. Disease struck the local apiary and well.. that plus a weak summer and bad winter.. Thinking of getting some next year though. Just a nuc to start off and then build it up. Maybe marking the Queen too, it's hell searching for unmarked quee...
Curious, is TechTown alone in preferring to deploy swarms of smaller VI-piloted mechs? Our Drones are around two-thirds the height of the average human, and they're rather effective. The few occasions they tackle other mecha, they simply overwhelm with small frames and number to cut it into manageab...
...no, I don't. I wish there was something else, as this world kinda sucks at times. All that scary shit in space and people suffering down here on Earth. But every religion just seems like a waste of time. Pointless. And the faithful really rather unnerve me, to be frank. They actually take it seri...
Old age mostly, 91%.. guess we're following the idea that after a length of time, you're no longer the same person you once were or everyone upgrades every so often. Not like AIs really have aging.. Though 7%, indeed any percentage, Heart Disease just makes no sense for my nation. For most Nations t...

NAME: Nicholas "Satyr" Sparksson GENDER: Male AGE: 31 No picture, I'm afraid. I'll do my best with wordplay, however I'm probably only a mediocre wordsmith. *ahem*... A bizarre-looking person, even in the varied populace of the Prison. Nicholas is clearly a halfling even at a glance. Thou...
Interested.. interested.. a few questions before I roll a character, if I may? I'm guessing PMT due to plasma weaponry, we clearly have reasonable robotics technology for the Halflings; but what about the software side? Are robots a thing in the Prison -rare or otherwise-? And as for that matter, AI...
