At this point, it was. Only way we were saved was because of Vincent getting that hippogryff.
Long live Cinematech. FC:0259-0435-4987Dementors attacked Zeron too during his short stay.
I P Med the other two aboard the Halberd. Once everyone posts I'm timeskipping the Halberd ahead to Traverse Town to help deal with the situation there.

Well the frequencies are allowed to change to create secure communication channels so it may be possible that off hand the starship channel could be picked up as it creates signals. Also the starships computer actively keeps open a free channel that listens to everything out there.

ESM gear, mate. Monitor all channels simultaneously.
Charlie Stross's cheerful, optimistic predictions for 2017, part one of three.ESM refers to radio gear in general that's rigged to monitor all transmissions in range and tell you what direction they're coming from; doesn't matter the frequency. It works for radars too.
Since it's a basic piece of gear that's been around almost as long as radio has, I figure Halberd stands a chance of hearing/detecting that other ship; after that it's a simple matter to tune the radios to the right frequency.

Charlie Stross's cheerful, optimistic predictions for 2017, part one of three.Thank you for taking the time to explain it Sabre. The starship is equipped with such in fact as such its made for survivability and awareness not combat (for long at least) just point to point travel so I believe the events could unfold with a conversation as AD took the time to upload an Advanced Surveillance Information Automaton to the computer dedicated to the starships computer.
I've PM'd both Watashiwa and Litemi. They have until tomorrow afternoon, otherwise I'll move forward and sort of ignore them until they become relevant again. The problem is that Balthier is sort of integral to resolving LA as I have it planned.

Against all tyrants.Me as well. Frankly I'm considering just leaving the RP to die and moving on with my life.
