They don't all dress up - and most of them don't. Some of them roleplay as anthromorphic animals either online or in various live-action things (rarely). Most of them are more the type to sit down with a webcomic like one of the above linked, or else they'll draw their own art, or write their...

I'd have to argue this one - from what we saw in Fleet Action, the point where the jumping ship materializes is random, so formation would be completely lost as if ships A, B, and C all hit the jump point at the same time, then A could appear at point X, while B would appear at point Y which...

Again, we don't know how much space in the dreadnought is used for various pieces of equipment, nor the composition of said equipment. For all we know, parts of it are empty vacuum, waiting to be used to house munitions, or other items which we've yet to see or hear about. We don't know how...

From my experience with furries, Death's right on the ball when it comes to defining them. While the guys who like their women to wear fur suits (or vice versa) are the types that most typically come to mind, it's more a subculture where people identify with those anthromorphized animals...

Why does it have to be 290 million tons? With that much mass, I'm wondering how it'd maneuver well enough to enter a jump point without spending hours maneuvering, even with scoop fields. The fact of the matter is that we don't have enough data here to render any accurate judgements - does the...

There's also one more problem with using windows to determine the 'size' of a ship - why should all ship windows be the same size in-game? Or are you assuming that Kilrathi and Human engineering is so standardized that they'd use the same components for their ships, thus resulting in only one...

A lot of people with the letter 'R' at the start of their names die everday. Besides, he was getting old - it's sad, but it happens.

You must've hated WC4 then - they're balding molerats there. :D

Would it even be appropriate to say 'he saw'? Or is it more 'He imagined he came, thought he saw... and then woke up as someone yelled at him to stop daydreaming'? :D

Wouldn't a better example have been how Bear was captain of the Tarawa, if we're looking for 'Space Forces to Navy' transitions?

Incidentally, that should be Harold Rodham, who gave way to Quinson, and who may have given way eventually to the coalition mentioned in False Colors by Tolwyn when described by the conspiracy - it's never made clear whether that President who gave up power was Rodham or someone else.

It should be noted that the humans there are leading the resistance against the Empire of Kilrah, but that doesn't mean that they're leading waves of Kilrathi fighter pilots either - it just means that they've got an important role in maintaining the colony's sovereignity against the Empire.

Actually, that looks like the same weapon to me, albeit held at a different angle - they both share the same type of stock, which is probably foldable, and the ammunition feed seems to be similar - the 'handle' on the rifle to the left looks to be hidden by the way the Firekkan there is holding...

We only know of one who ever did so - Hobbes, also known as the former khantahr of the Ras Nik'hra, Ralgha nar Hhallas. There was a Kilrathi scientist who defected, and is mentioned in the Academy manual (Hajjnah), along with the Kilrathi on the colonies like Ghorah Khar. However, it's never...

Harrison Ford survived it better than Mark Hammill, though that's probably because he had the Indiana Jones role to fall back on with regards to public recognition. Mark Hammill's always been 'the guy from Star Wars', which would make it harder to live down that Star Wars mistake. Still...

Mark Hammill's just barely lived that one down. :D Still, no matter how bad people say the WC Movie was, we only had to deal with that and not the Holiday Special, or any of the romance scenes in Ep II, or Jar Jar in Ep I.

Man, that's a lot of meat... it looks divine. :D

Actually, that submarine image made me think of the stones used in ice curling. I guess the ancient Egyptians invented that too? Damn, but they were probably THE most boring civilization on the planet. No wonder they didn't last...

Bear's Rapier II's in End Run ended up dogfighting with Salthi fighters on Vukar Tag after several of them launched to intercept the Cat Killers' landing craft, then subsequently hovered using antigrav to help do strafing of tanks, missile launchers, etc. Given that the novels are a canon...

The only possible problem with the WC3 upgrade you mention is that plasma guns are also available to the Privateer around this period as a civillian weapon. If it's that 'new', then I'd have expected them to be selling Reaper cannons to the Privateer as well, given that those weapons would be...
