Still haven't answer my question:

Does Alpha corp have any significantly holdings not located on Maxafrica (ie is Maxafrica just one of many mining colonies).

On another note who controls what. Are all planetary operations under the command of the overseer or just the city.

And no, unless we get more people no need to add any more factions.

At the current point, yes, Alpha Corp is like your Alpha Corp (ie huge and everywhere).

The Overseer (read: not-so-benevolent dictator) controls everything in Maxfrica City, which is the only colony on Maxfrica.

Since Alpha Corp is monopolized on the mining in Maxfrica, nobody else goes there 'cause it's totally a shitty place to live.

If the underground city didn't give you a clue.

Good Q. I expected him to come onto AIM to rickroll me as revenge for my Rickrolling of him.

Who wants to help me sketch out a map/overview of Maxfrica City?

I'm interested. Just never bothered to post. I figured once it started, Cow would pester me.

Technology, we need a consensus of what it is.

I'm thinking Alpha Corp security is armed with the best future arms companies have to offer: laser/phasers/blazers/what have you, rebels armed with standard firearms, and militarized mining lasers, stolen security laserguns, and the like. etc, etc.

As for vehicles...contragravity? http://hbpiper.wikispaces.com/Contragravity

Not big on the idea of wide scale use of any gravity warping technology. I think it is best left as a prototype weapon of some sort, I don't think people fully realize the practical issues with "flying cars" especially for civilian use. And I think that as far weapons, stick with projectile. Lasers are all well and good but a gun that fires mass using a magnetic barrel is amazingly effective, whereas there are practical ways to prevent taking damage from a laser.
Sad fact for sci-fi fans but for every step laser weaponry takes projectile weaponry seems to take 2.

So my theory, keep lasers as anti-missile weapons. And use magnetic mass accelerator technology as the basis for firearms. And artillery is obsolete replaced by cheap missiles.

We could but I am just giving one options. It is just my personal opinion that

Sand Grained Sized pieces of metal flung by a magnet at 1% the speed of light vs Focused beam of light gives a "coolness" win to the magnet projectile gun.

If everyone else thinks lasers are cooler then go for it. As far as why I explained the "reality" of it, well that was just an excuse to give everyone one more piece of information, I am just a big fan of learning something whenever possible.

I wasn't thinking lasers in terms of Star Wars, more plasma-type weaponry in terms of Halo/StarFist/Hammer's Slammers (ie, plasma based using railgun or Gauss-like technology to propel plasma shots).
