Interesting title.
Got the feeling this episode in going to be more along the lines of a nanite war and finding the Jung home world.
Or the rebuilding of Earth from the ashes up. I guess we'll find out in due time.
And the next episode is... "The strong and the pungent"? "The masculine and the guilty"? "The other weak and the not-so-innocent"?
Maybe this episode focuses on Tug's surviving daughter Deliza and Yannis?
I for one think that Deliza has been under utilized 🙁
And that Yanni has been over utilized 😛
I really thought that Vlad and Deliza had a spark, Cannot wait until Deliza introduces Vlad to Yanni. Vlad to give Deliza a bear hug and Yanni a Prom Date's Father Stare down.
Anyone think that they are going to find the Jung home world while searching for the BC that stole the jump drive teck?
I think that BC does not know where the Jung home world is. Most don't
I think its time for the Earth to start showing signs of working its Fabricators to full capacity and beginning to reshape itself into a world that can stand on its own feet again. Even if only a few city's start to become functional that would be great.
I like the idea of Advertising on the core worlds to request industrious people with a range of skill sets to Go to Earth and help rebuild the Birth Place of Humanity. It would be great to see wide scale immigration of Core world peoples and others from the fringe and even from the PC coming to make Earth they're home... (It would be cool to see the technologies and cultures brought to Earth from all the human worlds and the revival of others from the Arch all in the center of Human occupied space)
but maybe it would make more of an impact if say the Earth had lost the majority of its people... I think that the people have been through so much the last few years that overcoming another attack by the Jung and then having new people show up to help rebuild would help the survivors feel the pride of having taken all that the Jung could give and pushed them back, beaten the Jung again and Rising above the adversity.
Or you know, we could make it so that anyone who goes to Earth would be infected with Jung nanites and die.
Tug had the Duplicate Data Cores rigged to auto destruct if he died, did they get destroyed? - We know the originals are on the way to Corinair, did the duplicates go too? Were they fully translated to Angla?
I understand that there was a firewall to prevent the dispersal of Core Tech, but were there scientists looking at what was in the data cores, say compiling a short list of advanced tech which could now be utilized by the Ta'akar which could now be used to increase the power of a noble in the coming weeks and months? Did all of the translation personnel get picked up with the data cores?
When the Ta'akar consolidated they're power and brought they're ships home to battle the Karazari, did the freed worlds begin building Warships of they're own? I mean If your world was taken over and then that occuping force had to withdraw for some reason, you would build defenses to stop them coming back right? I would love to see the warships of the freed worlds of the PC make a move on either Ta'akar or for chaos's sake, attack Corinair for the Cores 😀
Actually that would be funny, the massed might of the freed worlds arrive in Corinair and find the Avandalh sitting there. (I take it that they don't have the plans for Jump drives yet :D)
One other thing... I would like to hear what happened to the Volander, the Volanese Cargo ship that was reported lost (Ep2. How cool would it be to find out that a series of "lost" ships had been taken to secret ship yards and retrofitted into working warships.)
I know that the Aurora and the Celestia and the Avendalh are the only warships the Alliance has right now and only one of them is fully combat ready... (Avandalh has shields, Plasma turrets, Zpeds, Jump drive) The Celestia doesn't have a nose right now and the Aurora has always been in a state of repair/fitting out. Even still they never had they're shields, additional weapons fitted. I would love to see more warships available to fight the Jung!
But I would understand if it came down to just the Aurora against the amassed might of the Jung... then "Jump flash! My god its a Jung Battleship!!! Multiple Jump Flashes sir, Jesus their are a dozen of them! I don't understand, there are multiple jump flashs in the Jung ranks but they are firing on one another. Four Curisers down, Eighteen Destroyers gone, that Jump battleship is taking heavy fire, they just jumped"
"Captain they are not all Jung ships, I don't recognize some of these ships but they have some PC Traits"
"Multiple jump flashes, all around us"
"I see them, hold fire Jess"
"Captain we are being hailed by one of the new jump ships"
"Put them on"
"Aurora, This is Captain Hpkre of The Mulenso, Sorry for not giving you a heads up but we wanted to retain the element of surprise"
"Understood, like up with Combat lets take these bastards down. Helm put us onto Cruiser Five, high and port, jump when ready. You know the drill Jess."
"Aye Skipper!"
I miss the main books already...
As much as i love these books i never thought of the free worlds in the pc! That would be a twist for the end of book 15
I figured that Tug would talk to them on the alliance's behalf, but they don't really get a mention. We have been to 7/16 (if Palee, Taroa and Korak count... ok we will allow them, people died and ships got bought) and had 9/16 mentioned as part of the story (a ship travelling from Norwitt / People being from Volon)
Not that I'm really interested in Dobson, but Maybe we could hear more about Palee and the rebuilding of the Larger ships in they're ship yards.
I'm just saying that we could have a little aside from two or three volunteers to the alliance talking about how the removal of the Takaran Empire, introduction of Jump driven cargo/passenger transport through the PC, ZPED power supplies, and the True History of Humanity being reintroduced, etc, are really making an impact on they're worlds, and that was why they volunteered. Because they want to give something back. (the comm drone network and the jump drive in general means that all the PC knows whats been happening and has been apprised of the current situation in and around SOL so its about time to hear from the other worlds)
Yay, August... Tik Tok.
