I'll admit that talking about the Arrival heptapod ship is definitely a case of "low hanging fruit"
So these guys fly halfway across the galaxy to ask for our help, and act like jerks.
Got it.
Naturally the clip and photos are from the movie. I disavow any ownership of them, because I wouldn't want my name attached to /that/. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xFdodJXML0U
As a warning, though, we'll be launching another fundraiser in April, so I guess scrounge around in your couches or whatever it is you do.

Hey, we have a podcast now! Well, really, it's just the audio from episodes, so I guess that counts. It will be published at the same time as the YouTube video, and be exactly the same content, just... on more platforms, I guess? That said, since it does involve additional work for me, it will be a subscription-only feature, at $0.99 a month here: https://anchor.fm/sacred-cow-shipyards/subscribe
Well, I never promised there wasn't going to be ANY math, but...
Anywise, drop pods are a wonderful examination into just how badly some organics want to kill other organics - they're literally willing to throw themselves at a planet with barely any protection at all, just to be able to kill other organics faster.
Craziness.

And, as you will note from the photos in the video, OF COURSE the ITT isn't standardized, in any way, shape, or form. There's, like, five different versions of the blessed thing, because NOTHING in the Star Wars universe can EVER be standardized.
As much as I like to rip on the Mon Calamari for producing basically one-off capitol ships, the entire universe has completely buggered their logistics chain.
"Oh, you want parts for an ITT? WHICH ONE?"

I want to stress that I absolutely love the Pacific Rim movie. The first one. Only the first one. Mostly because of the sound track, but entirely because Guillermo del Toro achieved his apparent dream of having a movie that was about nothing more than massive robots beating the everloving snot out of massive monsters.
And it's a-maze-ing.
But as soon as you take even the /slightest/ step back from the visual and auditory spectacle that it is - and it is - then... well... some Kaiju comes along and rips the facade away.

Most images, and the video clip, came from either the Babylon 5 show directly. Additional images from:

I literally cannot describe how incandescently furious I am with books like this.
Do you have ANY idea how long it will take, and how hard it will be, to correct the blatant misinformation these kinds of books impart to your offspring.
AND NONE OF YOU SEEM TO CARE.
You just pass those sproglings off to duly appointed state conditioners, and let them teach whatever they want to your genetic heritage, and you lie back and think of... whatever nation-state you live in at the moment.
Hell of a thing.

This is, amusingly, one of the few cases where the term you call something... doesn't honestly matter that much. Yeah, there are conventions about what a space "torpedo" versus a space "missile" might look like, but as long as you're consistent in your terms, it probably doesn't really matter.
Unless you're dealing with nautical navies, in which case torpedoes are torpedoes.

Play World of Warships here: https://wo.ws/3YdXqJA
Thank you World of Warships for sponsoring this video. During registration, use the code AZUR555 to receive a huge starter pack including 500 Doubloons, 2,500,000 Credits, 5 days Premium Account time, 1 Premium Container, and both Azur Lane commanders Cheshire and Azuma!
The promo code is only for new players who register for the first time on the Wargaming portal.
And, yes, I have been playing World of Warships that long. I think I might have helped with the early releases? Faulty memory banks are faulty. Anywise, what can I say? I have a weakness for your nautical beasts blasting away at each other.
And speaking of, the /idea/ of Q-ships - taking merchants, arming them, and then baiting submarines with them - is not only one of the most humie ideas ever, but it also /should/ have worked.
It just didn't. I mean, it did , but it didn't work great.
Which is a damned shame.
Maybe one day some game *nudgenudge* will implement the functionality in a fun and interesting way.
Oh, and yes, we are publishing on a new schedule. There was a short and a community post about this, but this'll be the time videos go live at in the future, whatever time that is in your time zone.
