The final frontier

[Squeblish Nef?]

Aye, my point exactly.
If they're acceptable, then I think that me and the Hive may really be interfering with the Apolyton Space Station project.

[Urban Ranger]

I don't think so. Seeing that we have at least a couple of decades of headstart on you (in game time), if space based weapons were allowed hostile nations wouldn't have any. They'd all blasted out of space.

[Rasputin]

but you wouldnt know if they had weopons or not!!! and any such action attackign another nations space statio would lead to all out war... why would anyone do that ??

[Urban Ranger]

Of course everybody else would know it's an orbital weapon. It's not difficult to tell a normal sat from other sats. As for a war, think about this. If I had orbital weapon platforms, would you really attack me?

[GeneralTacticus]

Well, it would have to depend on what kind of weapons it had. If they were just a few space-mounted machine-guns for shooting down other satellites, all it would need would be a few missiles or an EMP blast, and it's out. If, on the other hand, it's a fully-fledged battle station, complete with nukes, armour, etc, one would probably think twice.

[Urban Ranger]

True.

ooc: you mean someone building the DEATH STAR !!!

IC: Auldoninna continues its Shuttle Services to the Construction site of its New Space Station. Living Quarters and general ameniteis are almost complete. Once these are done we will move the whole labour department up there to continue the work.

Apart from minor self defence weopons the space station at this time wil lnot be an offencive one.

Ceroo Astronauts on our next shuttle out will be partakig on an ispection to ensure world happiness.

Today another module is added to the Apolyton Space Station, another automated manufacturing section. All the modules are armoured against minor meteor impacts, with laser defenses against larger meteors.

OOC: Now, remind me. Just who is bankrolling this project again?

[Squeblish Nef?]

Noosland, of course.

The Audlonina government do support the project but only by allowing tax deductions for all money spent, the vast majority of funding is coming from advertising ...
