The test didn't go wrong. It went very right. The whole idea was to wipe out everyone in the system.

As for the battleship thing, as far as I know, the assault was based on two types of technology. The one is what Dr. Tomsons is analyzing; a fusion of Sirian and Nomad technologies. The other is some sort of summoning device, like the kind Mason used at the end of Athena's fic/the beginning of our game. The battleships that may or may not have been present would have been wholly Nomad.

Members of The Covenant may or may not be possessed by Nomads. The thing about The Covenant is that, to a large degree, people really aren't actually members. You have your three big bosses in the organization: The Abbot, Mason, and Juan. Each of these people has access to certain factions within Sirius (The Order for Abbot, Bounty Hunters mostly for Mason and Outcasts for Juan) and usually will just send members of those groups todo their dirty work without ever really initiating them into The Covenant proper. Leastways, that's how I see it.

Hope that clears things up.

Wow. How's that for good timing!


I could have written: "Rob escapes using all the skills at his disposal," but that's just not me
Thank goodness!

He, well, I didn't mean anything negative with it. Just couldn't keep myself from writing it. ^^

I thought you'd know by this point that I loved every little aspect of your story and everyone elses posts. Oh well, maybe I haven't been clear enough.

Oh and, just a little note, sometimes it happens I say (or in this case write) things that doesn't have to do with the subject at all. I just feel for it. For example, if I would quote a piece from a post of yours and I say it makes me think about mystical, eighteen-legged, alien Howard Dean's from the Vega system that come to earth in flying coffee machines to rob the Central African Republic of all it's imported Dutch moldy cheese then just ignore it or laugh at it. It's just there for fun or for no reason at all.

Lol. You're mad as a hatter

What's a hatter?

Believe me, you've never seen me getting one of my hysteric laugh attacks. O_O

Alice in Wonderland. Mad Hatter. Oh, nvm :p

So who is writing next?

*stamps foot impatiently*

If it's not stepping on any toes, I can.

Well, I'm just waiting on who ever is writing the "getaway" scene so I can write a piece of all this through Jake's eyes.

Also, on another note, I'm sure some of you know I've done some editing of fanfiction in the past, and I've started editing this whole "Athena Saga" superstory that is Athena's original story and this RPG. I was hoping to release it on the front page as an independant Freelancer story once I've done editing it, and we've finished the actual story. (which I'm beginning to have doubts on whether that will actually happen! )

I'm editing for grammar, spelling, puctuation, as well as throwing in page, chapter, and part numbers. Let's just say this, I've found lots of errors in everyone's parts, even Mr. Eagleeyes Konn!

So, I need some name ideas from Athena or whoever. Maybe if we threw out ideas for the name of this whole little saga, instead of Athena's Freelancer Story and RPG, or whatever it's called now. Something this well-written and enjoyable deserves a good title, for crying out loud!

I'm supposed to be writing next...and I am so sorry for the delay.

Post Tue Oct 25, 2005 5:17 pm

ww2, and athena, I'd love to host it on the Freelancerfanfiction.ca site.

Post Tue Oct 25, 2005 6:30 pm

Hi, sorry I've been distant as of late, I keep on remembering I need to edit my last post on my other fic as well as get one done for this, but Im swamped
the past two weeks I've come home and worked on homework until I went to bed, and spent most of the weekends writting essays or college applications... hopefully this will die down a little soon and I'll have a little free time to get an update for this done. I realize mine too is long overdue

Post Wed Oct 26, 2005 12:30 am

Oh. I didn't realise ww needed us to write the getaway scene first.

"Hello, Bonnie and Clyde!"

*smirk*

Code, can you e-mail me please hun? I'd like to co-ordinate our ideas

On the editing the whole story thing, I don't have a problem with that at all. I suppose with regards to my initial story, I'm a bit concerned about copyrighting etc. It's only a fanfic I know. Should I be worried generally? It's not like anyone is going to make massive amounts of money from it

Regarding the RPG without doubt it's the combined work of lots of people and credit should definitely be shared.

I can give permission for my posts but I wouldn't like to speak on behalf of all.

So massive thanks to everyone who has contributed so far, be it writer, ideas, comments and just plain reading it lol

ttfn

Well, if Athena and ww2 both go for it, I can add it to freelancerfanfiction.ca with appropriate acknowledgement.

I also give permission for my CYOF-RPG additions to go into the ww2-compendium. *grin*

Fine for me. More recognition is never bad.

Great updated, Code

Tanya has turned into a bit of a moody cow recently lol

I suppose people shooting at you, has that impact :p

So. Who's next?

An update from Gabriel's perspective would be good.

And now that Jake thinks both Tanya and Rob are dead..what next? Report to Kress saying "Mission Accomplished!" ?
