Atmospheric Fighter Roleplay question

[Agmen of Eladesor]

Anyone remember Project Thor?

I realize that all of the systems have to have something or other in place, whether it's an atmospheric fighter, ground attack vehicles, or whatever. Nothing personal, but I think that there are plenty of flight simulators and combat flight simulators out there for that part of things. It when you deal with the complex issues raised by the trading around the houses and the interactions between the players and factions and all the politics that are involved here that make Discovery and Freelancer, while not unique, the best overal simulator around.

Anyway, I think that the only thing atmospheric craft would do in the game as it is, would be to add the service craft that bring the cargos up and down from mooring rings. There's no real need for any military craft around at all - or really for us to be flying them. (Again, see above paragraph about flight simulators.)

I'm quite curious to see if anyone has ever actually said somewhere in our role play just exactly why KEW's aren't used? Is there an 'Eridani Edict' in effect? (Not an attempt to hijack the thread - I'm just curious)

Oh god... The end of days... Agmen agreed with me.
