Just on a curious whim... Was there any attempt (or evidence of attempt) by some nation or hypercorp or other party to leave the Solar System via STL travel and attempt to establish an extrasolar colony? It looks like there was certainly a lot of deve ...

(Inspired by a recent RPGnet thread). Will there be a generic travel time list or formula for spacecraft (and on that note, Egocasting) for the Solar System? Don't need anything really mathamatical (besides, you want to keep spacecraft a setting at the m ...

One of the few things mentioned from discussions about EP is that while there is evidence of other civilizations, almost all said evidence is in the form of ruins and relics (case in point, Buckley's lovely-spooky spiderweb civilization). That said does ...

So I have a player that wants to come up from the mean streets of Olympus Mons and was curious as to if they could start with a one of those rare "Martian Alpiners" mentioned (but not started)... I see no problem but was curious as to any thoughts from ...
