Quote from: kindalas, 28-07-2006, 04:20:13Where can I find more information on this setting?At the moment the relative handful of ships on this board are all I've posted so far. I have been working dilligently on an actual introduction to the whole thing, between work and times where I haven't been working dilligently on it. Hopefully I'll have something up sometime this week. Quote from: GiovanniBlasini, 27-07-2006, 18:35:17You sneaky, sneaky devil, you! 8) ^-^ :DFirst off, the ship: I really, really like it. SI and armor are indeed both a little light, but given who two of the tree Norns must be (and whom the third might be), it's not entirely surprising.Firepower is nice - the emphasis is on extreme-range, but with a solid medium-range suckerpunch, thanks to those NACs. Both variants sound impressive, too.And to think I was kind of depressed that I wasn't able to cram as much firepower and armor as I originally wanted into it.I'll be honest though, the prospect of the carrier variant scares me. Normal carriers and massed fighter swarms are a dangerous enough proposition, but fighter swarms that don't require swarms of highly trained meatbags... yikes! QuoteThe use of fax machines in the role you have them in is inspired and downright evil - with that, and her acceleration, armor suddenly seems a very secondary concern. This also explains how these compete in an Inner Sphere filled with your other beasties.Just building on your earlier idea of using faxes to direct teleguided weapons. O0QuoteNow, on to the rest of the fluff....the Three Norns, eh? I've figured out Verdandi (Belldandy), I think. I'm curious to your interpretation on the others. Excellent choice, BTW, since it has multiple interpretations.The idea just came to me. Can't imagine where...Rumors of my Oh! My Goddess obsession have been slightly exagerated. Peace of Celestine be with you.QuoteAnd, dude, you've given me all sorts of fun ideas to play with, without pinning me down much at all, should I wish. Very nice. O0All part of my evil scheme to present an interesting framework that will draw people in and inspire them to do most of the work for me join in on the fun. ;)
