<<So, the rather long list of things that are probably going to happen or are happening goes about like this, in no particular order:
Geothaum Generator
Computers
Steam Power
Fun with Electromagnetics
Lots o' fighting
The Mountainhome invades us
Mountainhome Admins being confused/angry
Finally Electricity
Blimps?
Also the only people that have used their moods are Fish Moony and Gwolf unless I missed something, so that will probably happen at some point.>>

[Also there's a really big war going on and you're sort of a military base.]

[chaotic skies]

<<That's a thing. It's not a very complete list, but it's a list.>>

<<I hope I'm not the only one that has this weird headcannon where any time a new homelander shows up all the guys that have been here for a while pull them to the side at some point and ask them about what's been happening recently on Earth.>>

[Amperzand]

[Y'all get to know about Brexit. Woooooo!]

[chaotic skies]

<<Not sure I actually wanted to know about Brexit. Sadly I do now. But, hey, we also know about Overwatch, so that's nice.>>

[Amperzand]

[Yep. Lots of fun and not-so-fun things going on in the real world. Also you guys get to know about the weird time differences caused by my sporadic schedule in-character, since the Homeland keeps going right on schedule while your characters' subjective time edges forward in fits and starts.]

((Cody, i make explosives. And i didnt kill anyone friendly yet! I just have to do it in the caverns a few miles away from base. sigh. but there'll be steam trains and stuff! Transport Tycoon!))

[LordPorkins]

((Yeah, and I'm kind of his keeper/Apprentice))

(Y'know, you say that, but usually you just make vague actions and then try to pull things nobody would let you get away with out of thin air.)

First things first, to the meeting.  Then, look for Earthborn.

Wonder if I got a care package in this caravan...Probably with technological blueprints and a duplicate PEA.  And maybe a hand-crank magic generator.  Surely insertions aren't impossible to do over the entire world.

Have Spark conduct readings on the esoterica-infested blood.

Similar safety procedures.

Lessons:I think I want them to focus on the technologically useful concepts.  So, conditionals, booleans, I/O.  Progression after that: batteries and storing mana, basic affectivity (heat, force).

<<And, while we all appreciate a good explosion, we also don't want to be killed because we wanted to see stuff explode.>>

[Gwolfski]

<<And, while we all appreciate a good explosion, we also don't want to be killed because we wanted to see stuff explode.>>

((thats why we agreed to tests stuff a few miles away, remember?))

[chaotic skies]

<<That only works if you don't bring the roof of the caverns down on out heads. Explosions aren't exactly gentle.>>

[It also only works if you know how to make, design, or use explosives. Do you?]

((about 2/3 of that. I use dwarven Science. Maybe I shoulf test them on the surface instead?))
