Post number: 54 There was no ambush forthcoming from the supposed attackers, and even less in the of answers from the other Loroi.

Re: Miscellaneous Terran question-and-answer thread

I suppose Blood River is an example of technologically superior colonialist forces mowing down the primitive thorn-walkers in the thousands. But, on that same note; Native Americans, once armed with rifles were a serious threat to the regular army. Also, it wasn`t really the Colonial powers leaving ...

Re: Miscellaneous Terran question-and-answer thread

Two years for civil war isn`t very long at all, some African countries has be going on with that ten times as long. Civilization, if you want to call it that, in those affected countries just barely staggers on. I don`t think Humans are "less warlike" just more controlled in their going about it`s b...

All of the American branches don`t accept any sort of non-citizen, I checked; them all. All of the services do in fact accept non-citizens.

I have some small understanding of military life, National Service was mandatory here in my fathers day. In my family, as I believe, there has been a soldier in every generation since the First Boer War. Regardless of perceived military blood, I know well war isn`t 'glorious'. To sum it, I'd say it...

Post number: 53 Charlie heard a gun shot further along in the hall, he turned to see what was being fired on. Far be it from enemy contact, Corporal Fiore had shot some kind of drone.
