megaplayboy Posted February 11, 2012 Report Share Posted February 11, 2012 Re: Zeppelins The Airship and Futurism: Utopian Visions of the Airship The Aerotropolis was pretty awesome looking--200 stories tall, 8 blocks(I'm guessing they mean avenues) wide and 3 blocks long.

CorPse Posted February 16, 2012 Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 Re: Zeppelins Airships play a major part in this rpg. A guy in my group keeps making a lot of noise about running this, but so far it's been just so much hot air. (Yikes, I don't know whether to be proud or chagrined at that naturally occurring pun there.) In any case, the system uses d6s. If we do play, I am well prepared.

CorPse Posted February 16, 2012 Report Share Posted February 16, 2012 Re: Zeppelins I just visited my friends in Mountain View, CA, which is not far from the site of Hangar One on Moffett Field. Apparently after talks of pulling it down, it is going to remain for now. I'd love to stand next to it at some point, but I think the air base there is somewhat active? Anyway, it looks enormous. http://www.nasa.gov/centers/ames/multimedia/images/2008/23_ratio.html Apologies if this has all been covered before.

(Yikes, I don't know whether to be proud or chagrined at that naturally occurring pun there.) In any case, the system uses d6s. If we do play, I am well prepared. I haven't had the chance to run. I haven't even tried creating a character yet. But maybe I'll try the latter this weekend. I registered at the Cubicle 7 forums about a week ago, but I haven't even been validated yet. So I can't post or even send PMs there at this time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a native of the area, and have been inside the hangar a couple of times in the past (Airshows, school trips to NASA, that sort of thing). It's almost mind-bogglingly big. It's extra weird when its sunny and clear outside and raining inside Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
