Gah! Okay, okay! I give up.

They're smarter.

But we're craftier.

Though it can't be done right now, I, also, would very much like to see a dissection of the Gap Sequence in the future. Different people catch different things... and I'm always curious to see what I've missed. Originally posted by Joy Sure - just don't give me one of the scientific interludes. Wow!...

It didn't need them... It had those SCRT or whatever they're called. Wrong. Calm Horizens did need gap courrier drones. The SCRT didn't have the necessary range to reach Amnioni space. The conversation between Sorus and Milos in CAO proves this. "You told me you can get us help when we need it...

You clearly have a good opinion of humans Viridian... Which is fair enough Actually, I'm fairly pessimistic about humanity. It begs the question; If the Amnion are smarter, why haven't they overcome humanity already? Why do they suffer the uneasy peace when genetic imperialism is within reach? Give...

I would have to disagree. The fact is that Humankind will never surpass the Amnioni in technology... because the Amnioni are so much smarter than Human kind are. As far as I know, there was never any indication that the Amnion were more intelligent than humans... just more unified in their goals. Th...

The Noldor.

Oops... I forgot about the kazes he sent. And the way he destroyed competitors as SMI rose to power. Yep... that sucker's evil. :D A less-effective version of Foul. The Amnion present such a danger because they're so unified. There will never be an Anmion tratior. But this is also their greatest wea...

I'd say he was as evil as they come. He placed his own personal goals above the welfare of... well... the entire human race. The 'uneasy peace' he created allowed trade and riches to fall into his pockets while he searched for a way to live forever... but what was the final cost of that? Mankind's d...

Lameset Excuses Ever

1. "I didn't know the gun was loaded"
2. "I forgot."

3. "I was drunk."

Thanks everyone, both for the welcome and the advice. :D I began reading SRD when LFB was published, but never, not once in all my travels, have I ever found anyone one who had a similar interest. So it was a wonder to find this forum. Stayed up 'till the early morning hours reading posts... Thanks ...

Thank you Guest! I'll compose a suitable message and give it a whirl.

I have to admit it's slightly intimidating writing a message my favorite author (since I was 13!) might read. I forsee many, many proofreads before I hit the 'send' button!

Thank you, Dromond!

Hello! Very nice forum! I had no idea it existed... or I would have been here long ago. I very much enjoy Mr. Donaldson's works, especially the Gap Series. I'm interested in creating an open-ended PC space simulation which would accurately reflect the universe of the Gap novels. Problem is, I can't ...
