Starhawk Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 (edited) I had to stop and put on the appropriate music to go with those first five panels. I think this will be very interesting. And probably a tonne of fun, too, if I know Kuzzter. And, I almost forgot - Thanks Kuzzter!Happy Concerned landings!

astrokerb Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 This seems like it will be interesting. How many of Jool's moons do you intend to explore? Will the Kerbulans be there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wanted to make it more visible early on to reward the sharp-eyed, but unfortunately that ship design doesn't give a lot of clear lines of sight to the flag. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noname117 Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 And there goes all hope of Dres love. Anyways, I am looking forward to the new series, and I definitely think this is going to be good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starhawk Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 (edited) Quote Will the Kerbulans be there? That's a good question! From what we know, the Kerbulans are not explorers. They don't even have names for the other planets. Also, in the last interlude Kenlie Kermulan was sent to 'the purple planet', but it was mentioned that the craft was a prototype long-range attack ship. It was also mentioned that Kenlie will not have enough fuel to get back to Kerbulus after arriving at Eve. So, it seems unlikely at this point. eta: Unless you're actually paying attention to Kuzzter. And he already ninja'd my attempted fake-out. On another topic, now that I've had a couple of minutes to peruse the panels more closely... That's one fine-looking lander! Bill is outdoing himself.Happy Concerned landings!

Starwhip Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 [I]This was not an attempt to land a Tylo vessel. Any attempts to prove this non-attempt to land a Tylo vessel was an attempt to land a Tylo vessel will be disputed in a fair trial.[/I] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dman979 Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 INB4 the 3rd page! I'm loving it Kuzzter. It's really cool to see the story arc change from "For Science!" to "For [s]Science[/s] Funds!" to "For [s]Science[/s] [s]Funds[/s] ???"

I can vouch for the accuracy of Kuzzter's score because I was playing it while reading the comic ;). Thaniks, Kuz, for the sheet music. I'd have never thought to play that otherwise. Although I think the kettledrum part sould be a few octaves lower :). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been looking forward to Jool for a a while, I've never really explored it even in previous game versions--it was always Mun/Minmus, then Duna, then Eve, then new version and start over :) [quote name='Starhawk']On another topic, now that I've had a couple of minutes to peruse the panels more closely... That's one fine-looking lander! Bill is outdoing himself.[/QUOTE] Thank you! I've actually managed to land it, though the drill didn't engage-- it might be mounted too low. We'll see if Bill or Wernher can puzzle their way out of it for me. [quote name='CAKE99']Will you be doing the Jool5 challenge?[/QUOTE] Yes, but I am going to fit the mission to my preferences and let the chips fall where they may, rather than try to follow any specific set of challenge rules.

That's an important theme for me Dman; I see people ask on the forum all the time "I've 'beaten the game' and unlocked everything. What do I do next?" This comic is my way of answering that question :) [quote name='Geschosskopf']One of the things I was doing with my spare time in my recent absence from KSP was learning to play the English concertina.

Yeah, you're right--the notes are that high because (1) I cribbed it from a piano arrangement, not the orchestral score and (2) if I'd put them an octave lower I'd have run out of room on the page :) [quote name='Sanic']I have a feeling he'll send the B-Team there.[/QUOTE] Hmmm... actually, that could be quite fitting.

Endersmens Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 I also read along to the music, I love playing that song as loud as I can. (Well, when it's supposed to be loud anyways) Glad you went on to Jool. But why the name choice? Just curious. :) [SIZE=1]i personally liked "Journey to Jool" :P[/SIZE] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
