Thirdspace

So who's going to get the coming Thirdspace book? I can't personally wait for it as I really like what Steele has been writing so far :D
 
I'm looking forward to this one too. But then, as I've been told by my players, every game I run is a Call of Cthulhu game, no matter what setting. I'm looking forward to not having to make up some of the Lovecraftian elements for a change. :twisted:
 
I am definitely in for this one; I've got in on pre-order already :D
There is no way I could resist the chance to throw the worst nasties B5 had to offer against my players :twisted:

When I was watching The Lost Tales, I thought What if quantumspace was just a spur off of ThirdSpace. If your ship's Jump engines had a hiccup, you'd be in big trouble :wink:.

From the description you;d have something a lot wqorse on the hiccups, and a large cleaning bill :shock:

I know what you mean... "Was that a new dress?" :lol:
 
I don't want to sidetrack the conversation, but what the heck was that in Lost Tales? That whole "new jump drive" seemed really random and out of left field. I know there are more ways to travel (look at Sigma 957), but are there any theories where that came from?

On topic: Thirdspace good! H. P. Lovecraft good! If you want a preview of Thirdspace go read (in no particular order): "The Shadow out of Time", "The Call of Cthulhu", "The Music of Erich Zhan" (Zahn?), "The Dunwich Horror" and "The Haunter of the Dark". "The Dreams in the Witch House" and "At the Mountains of Madness" too, though it takes more of a commitment to down Lovecraft's prose in his longer stories. That ought to sum up what's up with Thirdspace, give or take plasma weaponry. :D

It was supposed to be Vorlon tech but I think it was great evidence of Vorlon humor. They made it up just for Pres. Sheridan to use on reporters.

Say to yourself in a warbling metallic voice "A means to an end". That's quite a long sentence, if you are Vorlon. :wink:
 
My theory is that the Vorlons discovered it millions of years ago perhaps during their search for Thirdspace; however, they decided to stick with something they already knew (Hyperspace) then make use of something new (Quantumspace). We know the Vorlons are static beings who prefer unchanging Order and change isnt something they do much. So they may have rarely used it while they used Hyperspace mostly and one of their outposts was discovered by the IA who deciphered the tech left behind... thats my view on the topic of Quantumspace in Lost Tales.

Anyway, I'm waiting for the book patiently in order to see the excellent fluff inside :lol:
 
Could someone please tell us why the release dates were delayed again. Please! I'd love to hear why. And another I noticed. Is there anything else for Babylon 5 coming after these two things?
 
As for the delay, I have no idea. I'm guessing it is printer-related, but I have no clue from my lair in the States.

As for more books to come, I know for a fact we are working on some...have no fear! As soon as I am wrapped on Trial of Blood for Conan, I have an awesome project upcoming.

More on that when I start getting my hands dirty on it....

Not again :x Another month to wait :evil: Boo ..... Hisss!

OK, rant phase over; so what is the story with this one?
No room in the book production queue?
Bigger selling lines getting higher priority?
Or is it just a case of the Vorlons wanting to make sure that the full tale of their "little" mistake never come out :lol:

Any word Matt????

And Bry - any hint (no matter how small or obscure) about what your next B5 book will be??

I'll give you a little poem...

They come in large,
they come in small.
Broad and flat,
or thin and tall.
They are one and many,
yet all alone.
From their largest ships,
to their smallest drones.


Heh heh heh...I have been awake far too long... :)

Cheers all,
Bry
