The fleet is going well, I now have more pieces. Of course, I lost almost all of my 3d stuff from the last 3 or 4 years due to poor backing up and accidentally nuking my harddrive. This means that many of my designs have changed, but I think it came out ok all things considered.
Addition: I figured out roughly what I want to use as a power source for the fleet. It seems that, based on current technology and what seems reasonable (whatever that means here), some form of ionic engine coupled with a tokamak or stellarator fusion reactor. Im still doing the research on what kind of thruster to use (I guess there are many kinds of electronically fueled propulsion methods). To figure out the combo, I think Ill figure out what kind of propulsion gives what amount of thrust and then couple that with a reactor which gives the needed amount of output (probably mega or kilo watts). I didnt realize that ionic propulsion had actually been employed in satellites, but I guess it has. I find that to be amazingly sci-fi. Anyway, Ill try to remember to post when I figure out what to use.

How goes CalPoly? And how'd you ever manage to find my site? I'd assumed you'd deleted yours by now (remembered you mentioning you had one like last year).

Yeah, DA was inevitable. Any activity on the fanfic?
