The scene isn't done yet, he will probably sense Beryl, Tempo and hopefully a still living Cloud when his 'attention' shifts to them.

https://well-of-souls.com/gallery/images/outsider209.jpg Yep, the damn chittering is turning Alex into a telepath :P Seriously, I have a working theory (that I planned to use in a story) that certain states of mind would allow the Lotai to be pierced/lowered a little. There are more than a few ritu...

Fun facts about the T-34 Why must you trigger me so violently, Dragoongfa? T-34 was not designed and built by a single man. It's not a rickety tractor with a gun and bolted-on armor, it's a specifically developed military vehicle - it has over 20000 parts, a good deal of them novel-developed. Think...

What's even harder is finally achieving a streamlined production for a rather good piece of hardware. It's quite a difficult balance between exhausting resources in order to produce a super weapon and clinging to reliable, cheap, but outdated stuff. Ideally, you should find a middle ground, where a...

Yeah, building a prototype is easy; being able to have an assembly line production for it is hard. The long running practice for all kinds of military aircraft is to first have a prototype built as a proof of concept. Then if the prototype stands up to the demands there will be an initial order for ...

After all, the Loroi are in beta, were not even finished to be what they were supposed to be... which I am betting the historians either know or have a good idea of. I don't think the Loroi were a beta version, more like the final product version before the soia-lirons got wiped out. If your theory...

I don't think that she is pointing the barrel of her pistol at him, probably holding the pistol in her left hand while resting her arm against his back. Whoever has tried to hold a grip onto something for an extended period of time will know how uncomfortable it can get after a while without relaxin...

Spoilered for size:
I guess that the commander won't come fishing for her shuttle...

Thanks, fixed that.

Here, some more Beacons for everyone

This entry is all about Stillstorm and her introduction to the political side of her new rank.

EDIT: Finished some needed editing and clarifications.

Mizol Torimor Shadow didn’t have to concentrate to pick up the main telepathic discussion aboard Tempest which happened to be the ongoing duel between Teidar Pallan Fireblade and Soroin Torret Shortleaf. The crew were actually giddy about it, most of them holding Shortleaf to such a level of disdai...

I think that Tempo may have a pocket Historian of her own (or a high level electronic warfare suite in her armor/luggage).

The best counter to telepathic shenanigans is electronic surveillance and if the Loroi in turn want to counter that, then they in turn would invest heavily in electronic warfare.

Can I ask why the even bother using it when say a LIDAR and high powered telescope might do better? Its like Loroi a bunch of warriors just let the ball drop on one of the most important things ever at times. Maybe I am in the wrong area. LIDAR and telescopes are slower than light by their nature. ...

What do the Hardtroops eat do they simply recharge in a wall socket? Their electronic parts probably have a rechargeable and easily exchangeable battery pack. Their fleshy parts, that would depend what they found best; either they kept their internal digestive track (tongues, stomachs, intestines a...

Rules for posting. In particular: Second, if you have some kind of real-world political or social axe to grind... please don't grind it here. In science fiction we talk about all kinds of political systems, and I have a wide tolerance for off-topic posts, but if all you want to do is to complain ab...

In which Tempo assumes control:

With their tech level, I'd expect smart paints that can dynamically change their hue, through electrochromic or magnetochromic processes. It's something we already have, just not at the level where it could reliably be used plated on military armor. This is a really bad idea in a combat situation a...

https://www.technologyreview.com/2021/06/23/1026947/radio-waves-earth-stars-exoplanets/ Seems that 1,700 stars have been in position to detect life on Earth over the last 5,000 years. Perhaps something for Arioch to consider in his master plan! The radiowave's angle has long been cut down due to th...

And the plan springs into motion
Seriously though, what does kKt mean?
