8,000 v. 8,000. A star and a reinforced point from Smoke Jaguar take on 5 IS merc mechs with 2 light Clan mechs as isorla. Cored the Bushwacker early before my Mad Dog was distracted by lights in the rear. The Atlas was just getting into the fight when we had to call it. Could have gone either way. Still super pumped for next game.

That's a smoke screen. Another is the "liberal brainwashing machine" school system scare. What they fear is the statistic that higher educated individuals trend towards populism and progressivism. They see higher education of youths as a threat to their political base, which turns into "spineless parents sending kids to liberul brainwashing camps funded by the gubmnt."

 

I'm looking to get inspiration for my own writing. I need a hard sci fi series where earth (and earthlike worlds) are too rare, inaccessible, and/or previously spoiled beyond ability to sustain life. Bonus points if it is set on a multi-generational space station or starship without any other options and goes into detail about life support, living space, mineral mining and expansion of the station to accomodate a growing population, and daily life of it's residents.

If anyone remembers Drifter Colonies from Titan A.E., that's what's in my head.

I'm looking for The Martian levels of realism, and I'm fine with a bit of "Unobtanium" clichés if they're not core to the story.

You get what you pay for. Pay more; get better workers.

Would real ceremonial muskets look that bare, chipped, and worn?

Rotors are lifting blades for helicopters. They're mounted to the rotary engine.

Good on them. With Markiplier's new movie hitting a theatrical release, I expect to see a decentralizing of film just as we're catching a glimps of a decentralized internet. Indie films are gonna fill that drought. Hollywood was getting stale anyways.
