Ok, so it would be hilarious if the rumor about using polarized weapons on the Drifter battleships are true (lower your own resistances to 0 in order to inflict max damage on the Drifter). Resistance wouldn't just be futile, it would be detrimental.

Looks like the Jove and Sansha did a lot more than share tech necessary for Incursions.... May be the only path to the Jove's survival?

Jovians have always worn black suits and some have had cybernetic I plants on display, many capsules still do. Jovian appearance has always been strange and the eyes in particular Erie and dark

Few Screenshots from SISI today after minor update.

Seekers nor Drifter didn`t attacked, just regular scan. Not that I tryed to attack them with Astero.

That thing is massive.

Something that's just occurred to me;

It might just be a remnant of design, something to be ignored, but why are the sleepers/Drifters scanning these outposts?

I'm just thinking out loud for the most part, but It's only really just occurred to me that these outposts aren't necessarily the staging areas for Sleepers and Drifters, but the objective.

I wonder if there are resources, tech or personnel that they want from within the structures and they have been scanning everything else to determine if any of those things have been salvaged, raided or removed by other entities and taken elsewhere in space.

Woe betide anyone they find to have stolen from them.

Also as a small aside; Lux Kontos using your resistances against you reminds me a little bit, though not completely, of the Terran Superweapon that the Empress used at one point.

Good question.

But here's an actual picture of JoviansSmile


They have such sights to show you...


Where we're going, we don't need eyes to see.


Nice reference. Liked that movie enough to buy it on bluRay.

If I were a betting man, I would say this thing is big enough to dock supers and titans.

Last night, I extracted the model and thought the scaling was way off - almost 200KM from top to bottom. Looks like it wasn't wrong at all!

By the way, how/where are people finding these on Sisi?

Keep jumping around, you will find one eventually.


Also, forgot to add this zoom in on unidentified wormhole. WH


Other end, does it look familiar with any area of known space? At all.
