Re: [HOE] Unity Spoilers in Lost Colony
Spoiler Space because some players are too stupid not to read titles and
subjects that they shouldn't.
Ok if you want me to relate it to things that are forty years post war I can
do better I can relate back to the Wierd west where a bullet proof vest has
AV:2 now It might just be me but I think that with the time between 1876 and
the 2040s they can come up with armor for the internal walls of a building
since that's what the unity basically is with better AV than a 160 year old
bullet proof vest. As for demons just having claws I think that in hell
there are definately going to be things scarier than demons with claws since
Hell is supposedly part of the hunting grounds where magic comes from I
think it is safe to say that some of these demons are going to have magic of
some kind or another which would probably go through AV:3 I mean 3D6 damage
will go through AV:3 and most spells do much more damage than that so I ask
again why would such an advanced and powerful ship built by the mastermind
of mad scientists have the equivalent armor of a Steam Wagon. I will say
again It doesn't make any damn sense. Which leads me to another topic that
has been eating away my sanity since hell on earth came out. Why has
technology not advanced any from the late 90s to early 2000s I mean cars get
the same mileage and look the same computers havn't advanced medicine hasn't
advanced, nothing has advanced except for things that revolve around the
hunting grounds which I admit mad science would advance faster but hell on
earth would have made mush more sense if you'd based it around the 2020s
rather than 2090s because the even though it wouldn't advance as fast normal
science is going to advance eventually and it isn't goin to jsut stay at the
same level for almost 80 years.
