As deWulf ships grew larger and larger, it became apparent that they could no longer rely entirely on just docking adapters to remain secured. Once ships passed beyond even a thousand tons of mass, docking adapters were at risk of flexing or breaking just due to minuscule shifts in a ship's position. Changes to make… Continue reading Sketches – Ship Docking Clamps

Sketches – Charged Gas Harvester
It only took a few jump points to be charted before deWulf explorers discovered warp points that had formed inside interstellar nebulae. In addition to the amazing scientific opportunities this offered, industrial interest followed quickly afterwards. While some nebulae (The Rotensee and Nebelflamm) were energetic enough to be hazardous even to warships, others (The Cloak… Continue reading Sketches – Charged Gas Harvester
Sketches – Plasma Gun Mount
An offshoot of plasma torpedoes, the plasma cannon is a close range, hard hitting direct fire weapon. Instead of relying on energy beams (like laser or particle accelerators), or graviton projectors (more commonly referred to as "force" beams), the plasma cannon instead launches packets of high-temperature plasma contained in a kind of "static drive field"… Continue reading Sketches – Plasma Gun Mount
August 2020 Sitrep
I'm doing better this month! Not even into double digits this month and we're actually looking at an updated Sitrep. Pretty sure this is a sign of the apocalypse. Which one mind you, is the tricky part. Fortunately for me however, I've managed to get through a few personal challenges unscathed, and that's been a… Continue reading August 2020 Sitrep
Sketches – Datalink Jammer
Datalink jammers aren't a technology that has been researched in the deWulf Universe (as far as anyone is aware of) but represent one of the few kinds of truly "offensive" ECM that is possible. Most ECM technology is deceptive by nature, working to conceal or modify emissions as opposed to actively trying to confuse or… Continue reading Sketches – Datalink Jammer
