Aside from that, I can't state enough the importance of you, the player, contacting myself (Sethos) or Tsye about actions you would like to partake in over the course of the Epiphyte plot. If you would like to set up a base or some such as a central location for operations, it would be best that you contact either of us so we can include such in the plot and make sure everything is kosher. | Aside from that, I can't state enough the importance of you, the player, contacting myself (Sethos) or Tsye about actions you would like to partake in over the course of the Epiphyte plot.

* On October 29, three workers at the Epiphyte clinic were shot. On the same day, a small ship landed on and took off from the helipad of the clinic (despite the 7W's statements about blockading air and space travel). The cause of these has not yet become public knowledge. | * On October 29, three workers at the Epiphyte clinic were shot.

Each hardware platform (android) comes equipped with a lot of redundant hardware, attributing to the difficulty in disabling them. Your average hardware platform will contain fifty isolated concurrent processing platforms, two wireless receivers, three batteries, two IR lights, two IR receivers, an ultrasound beacon, and four optical receivers that also contain thermal sight capabilities (and low light vision). In addition to that generic hardware, an android will also come equipped one primary and one secondary weapon (one per arm). | Each hardware platform (android) comes equipped with a lot of redundant hardware, attributing to the difficulty in disabling them.

When a hardware platform is disabled (either locally or by the network) or loses power, all memory cores will be completely wiped. This is not a function that specifically has to be triggered as all memory is volatile. If an android regains power and is accepted back into the neural network, it will be reprogrammed by the network. | When a hardware platform is disabled (either locally or by the network) or loses power, all memory cores will be completely wiped.

The shell neural network is the wireless connection with which all shells are connected to via their hardware platforms. It is currently composed of n*50+200 artificial intelligences (where n is the the surviving shells). The neural network could also be called the consensus network, as every action that the shells decide to do must be decided upon via the neural network. In this way it could be considered that the invading android army is not many units, but a single hive-minded entity connected via a cloud network. | The shell neural network is the wireless connection with which all shells are connected to via their hardware platforms.

However, the 7W has been blocking space and air travel to the best of their limited abilities since the incident at the spaceport on the eleventh of September. Combined with bandits outside the city and those refugees who choose to camp nearby rather than flee for other parts of Lopanga, the 7W blockade has severely isolated the city. | However, the 7W has been blocking space and air travel to the best of their limited abilities since the incident at the spaceport on the eleventh of September.
