Slug Engineer Meeting Board

Postby Mister Sammy » Mon Oct 01, 2012 11:37 am

"So not everyone in the galaxy can afford our luxury cruisers..."
"Well then. We need some ships for the proletariat!"
*One blueprint drawing later*
"I give you: The Slug Interceptor!"
"Uh-huh...hey. If we cut the doors here, and here, we can save 4 scrap per ship!"
"...And if enough people buy our ships..."
"...We could save billions on doors alone!"
"But what if someone shoots out the O2? Then the engines?"
"...Serves them right for buying cheap!"

So basically you're glad that there aren't any doors on the Slug Interceptor to the oxygen and engine rooms? Not that I'm complaining about that fact.

"Wait, if there are no doors..."
"Yes Johnson?"
"Then no one can get in there, right?"
"Right, Johnson. Your point?"
"Well, why not get rid of the "rooms" entirely? Leave the systems attached to the outside so they can be accessed when docked, but remove the rooms to save some space. It might even make those systems harder to target with enemy weapons. It's not like anyone needs to worry about having space in there if we don't have any doors. Besides, rooms have got to be worth more scrap than doors, right?"
"Johnson, this is a serious strategy meeting. We don't have time for your nonsense."
"But sir..."
"Johnson, you're fired."
*Johnson leaves*
"What kind of name is Johnson for a slug, anyways?"

Yeah, I'd be mad if in the future alien mantis things were called Charlie or Jones. Or a slug called Dave, or a crystal named Fred...

Or a robotic being consisting of trillions of nano-scale robots that isn't called Legion. :D
