<<They're both more of a proof-of-concept made out of salvage parts; nothing is optimal, and neither of them are trying to make them effective. The Coilgun is a fun (if dangerous) project, and the rail gun looks like a bunch of bored college kids.>>

[Amperzand]

[Oh, certainly. Basically, a railgun is heavy, dangerous, and wears out quickly, but comparatively simple to make, whereas a coilgun is less heavy, less dangerous, takes a long time to wear out, and needs small-scale computing of some sort to stage the coil firings.]

<<Although, if we wanted something based on electricity sooner, we could build one of theses >>

[Amperzand]

[While Fish already has an electropike, it's running off raw magic, so there's a couple issues there. Stunguns/tasers are actually more complex even than crude railguns, though more practically useful and as such developed earlier in our world.]

<<This seems to be taking up all the room of the IC thread. Where's the OOC thread?>>

[Amperzand]

[In my sig, since I've been meaning to do that for a while.]

[Chevaleresse]

Buy the stuff everyone asked for, within reason. Though, I need to know what we have to offer - if I remember correctly, it isn't much, even if supplies are being obtained cheaply.

Suggest a simplified version of this tome of knowledge or whatever, suitable for a beginner.

(im a cat lover moony will still work hard, dont worry )

[Amperzand]

While the fortress' physical wealth is currently limited, this caravan is likely intended to serve as a go-between for the Mountainhome, and will probably accept research data in lieu of materiel.

[MoonyTheHuman]

To liason:
"This statement is false, think about that for a little"

[Amperzand]

He watches you for a moment, presumably in the hope you'll do something relevant, then turns back to his papers.

[Incidentally, the most likely fail-state at this point results from a lack of action on the players' part, nothing more.]

[MoonyTheHuman]

Moony then puts in a request for willow wood and opium poppy seeds, along side a live piglet

Get a general report of the fort. We know what we've got, but how is everyone doing? How is the fort holding up? What major things are happening?

<<This is just an excuse to have an updoot, or not. Whatever you decide.>>

<<Also, where'd Blaze go?>>
