Re: SPIRIT WALKER - CHAPTER 18 SPOILERS

Perhaps as a diversion, but they are already backstabbing i think, so thats nothing new. Security would be stepped up regardless. I’m not sure that security would be increased by more personnel though. Either the different towers exchange information freely or they spy on each other all the time. I...

Re: SPIRIT WALKER - CHAPTER 18 SPOILERS

I was attempting humor. :roll: However, I was also thinking along the lines of if it is inevitable that the Loremasters are going to find out that some information has been stolen, leaving clues pointing towards one of the other towers/departments, the Loreguard, a criminal organization or some prom...

Re: SPIRIT WALKER - CHAPTER 18 SPOILERS

Or, appear to be someone who has the authority to be carrying illicit devices past security checkpoints. When chased leave a stolen device behind, make a wall or 'go shadow', any portable detection gizmos find something but not Kyven. With a little guile many ways present themselves. (Or he could go...

Re: Predictions?

If the broadcast plasma is working through a higher dimension similar to hyperspace then maybe some small version of the interdictors could be built. The number and effectiveness of powerful telekinetic Generations in battle raises another question. Do they risk putting biogenic Cybi technology on s...

Re: Predictions?

I'm not sure that the ring would work because their ships broadcast plasma to different sections to provide power. Surprisingly, the Consortium used plasma as a power source, just like the Imperium and many other races, but they had learned how to broadcast that plasma power to remote units, without...

Re: Predictions?

Yeah we've speculated a little on the situation in Andromeda before. That's why whilst delaying the Consortium advance they need to also get all that stealth technology working, a way to mask hyperspace signatures and maybe Myleena's more efficient subluminal drive put it all into a new scout ship a...

Re: Predictions?

Well that puts a different light on it. It does raise further questions like how strongly do the Consortium control the Urumi? I can only guess they told them about the Generations in order to capture some. Any DNA samples that they've collected must be beyond their current understanding and technol...

Re: Predictions?

I wasn’t suggesting that the Consortium heard about the academy and returned. I’m saying they might have already had a presence/scout in the Milky Way and heard about the academy. They’ve had years to hear and get an advance force into place. Pretty much everything you’ve outlined makes sense and fi...

Re: Predictions?

There's gonna be war (obvious first). I think it's a case of numbers, if as I suspect the Consortium has overwhelming numerical advantage, the Karrine advances in technology will not be enough in themselves. That's why I was speculating before about teleportation abilities. With hyperspace disrupted...

Re: SPIRIT WALKER - CHAPTER 17 SPOILERS

Great chapter! Now that Kyv knows that he can get on the Loremaster grounds and into the buildings, things should start to get interesting. I agree about the shady Flauren, too. It only shows that the Loremasters don't seem to have active sensor sweeps going in the public areas, but then with the n...

Re: SPIRIT WALKER - CHAPTER 16 SPOILERS

The key critical factor will most likely be his Shadowfox abilities as this can be his ace up his sleeve. It's a complete unknown. I think you could be right. They may have some means of detecting any use of spirit energy, crystal or shamanic, and that would put Kyven in immediate danger. The shado...

Re: SPIRIT WALKER - CHAPTER 16 SPOILERS

boballab, the article “The Truth About Dogs” was interesting, thank you. The link goes to the last page of five, for those others that read it. I’m not sure though if you think that I’m asserting that inbreeding doesn’t happen, I’m not. I picked up on the copy machine metaphor because that is not ho...

Re: SPIRIT WALKER - CHAPTER 16 SPOILERS

Until now I’ve been kind of agnostic on the Loremasters, wanting to give them the benefit of the doubt. I mean, obviously, I have strong feelings against slavery (and as a child of the Civil Rights generation I’ve had to be able to hold my own on issues surrounding discrimination ever since I could ...
