[really, really Infinities] strange things are afoot
 
#15
M Fnord Wrote:It really depends on how you define relevance. Will the Fen ever be like they are in the mainline, commanding the heights of the solar system? Probably not. There's not quite enough of them (though more on average than in the mainline) to offset the advantage Earth's population and economy offer, even with miracle technology.

If the Fen manage to keep a (slight?) edge on handwavium based tech it could work...

Quote:But that doesn't mean they're not relevant. The Convention operates out on the ragged edge of the frontier, which gives them a certain frontier mystique. People join the Fen on a pretty regular basis - especially people who'd like something better in their lives but don't want to live under the Space Powers' collective thumb. Also, the Fen aren't simply lurking in holes in the outer system, they're actively involved in shaping things. They may not be the political force that they are in the mainline but they're much more of a cultural force, which may turn out for the better.
Being far away from Earth (because of the slower space drives) certainly helps... because as long as its not economic to use the area the Fen are inhabiting, they will not be rushed that quickly. ^^
