I can't remember if the kermulans had already offed any other named characters (not counting mechanical ones). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mister Dilsby Posted October 29, 2016 Author Share Posted October 29, 2016 Teaser! Spoiler Sarge and Nimzo zoom up a hill on Bop's Ridges--so far, a very fun place to drive a rover!

I haven't calculated whether that's enough to get its mass down to the surface and back to orbit again, but I will say that that's not how it got down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dman979 Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 Just now, Kuzzter said: Nope, Intrepid remains in orbit. OK, I've been heard out, and summarily proven wrong.

Not if we take Kuzzter literally: 6 hours ago, Kuzzter said: Now, how I got the rover down there is the really interesting part (emphasis by me) But I would definitely love if you were right with this theory. Maybe one of the gumdrops doubled as a skycrane? There are docking ports on both vehicles... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But maybe not in the way you imagined... As I post this, @Nimzo Kerman is next to me flying planes with too many engines at very low altitudes. There's a Kuzzter Kerman in his 1.2 save (dressed as a fleet Admiral, of course!), who I am informed will meet a horrible fate if anything happens to Enzin Nimzo on Bop. Well, we'll just have to see about that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
