Probably not. No one asked for this, I have very little doubt that there’s not even more than a handful of people who’ll read fully through this little manual, much less actually play this game; especially now that I’ve started off my introduction on such a downer note in a piss-poor attempt to me ironically funny. But I don’t particularly mind that. So why DOES this exist, then? Well, because I felt like giving something to the Warframe community and I’ve been getting way to into the ideas behind tabletop RPGs lately. I can’t program, I can’t animate, but I can write, I can imagine, and while I’m not a huge fan of them I kind of fancy myself decent when it comes to working with numbers. So, I thought this up, I slapped this together, I look to improve it, and I’m hoping those that play this enjoy it. Short introductions, I suppose. I suppose I should give a shoutout to Pavelord, even though I didn’t call him in for help on this specific work his help in the previous and sloppier incarnation of this idea definitely helped set the groundwork for what this would become. Props to ya, man. And… that’s all the introduction I have. You’ll find I’m less short with words from this point on, so consider yourself warned. But, moreover, enjoy. ~Morec0 [9] Chapter 1: Background In the far-flung future long-gone are all traces of any modern civilization, for in humanity’s future the great Orokin Empire was founded. This empire spanned the whole of the Solar System – known since those times as Origin – and united all of humanity together under a single banner, new traditions, and a period of scientific progress that resulted in technologies once thought just the stuff of dreams. The Orokin stood unrivaled by any… until the Old War. The Orokin Empire found itself faced with a race of creatures known as the Sentients. The details of the war are sparse, but a few facts are known: the Orokin were unable to hold back the Sentients on their own and were nearly defeated, they unleashed warrior-gods known as the Tenno who turned the tide of battle and brought the Sentient threat to heel, and when the war had reached its culmination the Tenno betrayed the Orokin, destroyed their Empire and then vanished into the void of time. It is from the wake of this Betrayal and the Collapse of the Orokin Empire that the Origin System slowly became what it is today. Technology fell into a dark age, the scattered remains of the Orokin people gave up on their traditions and even their name, and between the march of time and the Great Plague that ravaged the colonies before its sudden disappearance, Origin no longer even resembles what it once was. From the smoldering embers of the Collapse two factions have risen to rule the System: the Grineer Empire and the Corpus Corporation. But they do not enjoy the other’s company. The Grineer barely tolerate the Corpus because of their need for the Corporation’s expertise in long-forgotten-and-lost Orokin technology, and the Corpus are resentful of the Grineer for the history of atrocities the Empire has committed in the pasts of those who founded their organization. It is only through the faintest but most-dire of needs that the Corpus have been allowed to become what they are, and through the fear of retaliation that the Grineer stand widely unopposed by them. In an era of fragile coexistence between the oppressive Empire and covetous Corporation, tensions run high, conflicts between the two factions happen and are quickly ignored in favor of maintaining mutual trade and assistance, and each side is wary of its supposed ally. [10] Complicating this twisted political maelstrom further are the multitudes of terrorist groups collectively known as Syndicates. Bound together by a loose affiliation similar to that of the one between the greater Corpus and Grineer, these groups struggle and strive to bring down the Corporation and Empire, each fighting in their own way and seeking to heal Origin through the institution of their personal beliefs. They are not always friendly with one another, they are not of the same mind on many things, but they do stand opposed to the same enemies – an alliance of convenience binds them, for now at least. This, long before the Tenno begin to make their return to fight for Origin once more, is known as the Armistice Era, a lone period of collaboration after one of brutal attempts at genocide and enslavement. This is where your story begins… [11] Chapter 2: Factions and Groups As the Armistice Era dawned, Origin found itself divided up between the two superpowers that now rule over it: the Grineer Empire and the Corpus Corporation.

  • Assessment of Vessel Requirements for the U.S. Offshore Wind Sector
    Assessment of Vessel Requirements for the U.S. Offshore Wind Sector Prepared for the Department of Energy as subtopic 5.2 of the U.S. Offshore Wind: Removing Market Barriers Grant Opportunity 24th September 2013 Disclaimer This Report is being disseminated by the Department of Energy. As such, the document was prepared in compliance with Section 515 of the Treasury and General Government Appropriations Act for Fiscal Year 2001 (Public Law 106-554) and information quality guidelines issued by the Department of Energy. Though this Report does not constitute “influential” information, as that term is defined in DOE’s information quality guidelines or the Office of Management and Budget's Information Quality Bulletin for Peer Review (Bulletin), the study was reviewed both internally and externally prior to publication. For purposes of external review, the study and this final Report benefited from the advice and comments of offshore wind industry stakeholders. A series of project-specific workshops at which study findings were presented for critical review included qualified representatives from private corporations, national laboratories, and universities. Acknowledgements Preparing a report of this scope represented a year-long effort with the assistance of many people from government, the consulting sector, the offshore wind industry and our own consortium members. We would like to thank our friends and colleagues at Navigant and Garrad Hassan for their collaboration and input into our thinking and modeling. We would especially like to thank the team at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) who prepared many of the detailed, technical analyses which underpinned much of our own subsequent modeling.

I started in 1998 with a basic list that I pulled off of the web. That list had been compiled by Hugh Stegman, a highly respected radio hobbyist and columnist for Monitoring Times. A special "Thank You" to Larry Van Horn for the section on NASA callsigns. In the intervening years I have added callsigns that I myself have heard and verified as well as those from various “seasoned”, respected milcomer’s and HF utility communications hobbyists here in the US as well as Europe. One should take most military calls with a grain of salt. They are often used by more than one unit. Also, the US military is closing bases left and right, moving and combining units, transferring tasks to the reserves, and the like.

Elements as old as the cosmos, when combined in a modern recipe, give nuclear en­ ergy, new at least to Earthlings. The eight-note scale has formed the melodies of Western man by age-old conditioning, yet together wi.th electronics and the poetry of rock, we have our new music. Sailing vessels are regarded as one of man's most lofty achievements. Their interna­ tional importance to transport and communication has been lost now to nuclear propulsion and electronics, but their importance to individuals continues. Many men are learning that ancient features can be combined into modern vessels. When combined by the hands of one individual builder-owner-man, that man gains a new­ found freedom to move ahout the earth.

NAFC Marine Centre is the trading name of the Shetland Fisheries Centre Trust, Scottish Charity Number SC003715 Hello! My name is Tammy Welcome to the Shetland Rural Island Maritime Heritage Asset Atlas Project or SRIMHAA for short! This project is to map structures and remains found around the coastline in Fair Isle, Foula, Papa Stour and Skerries and then to get a better picture of what they were used for through stories, artefacts, memories and folklore. This booklet contains lots of information about Shetland’s coast and maritime heritage and some fun activities. Tammie and Norrie will be on hand through out the booklet with some hand tips and interesting information. And I’m Norrie! 3 The sea and shores around Shetland have been important for the islands ever since people settled here more than 5000 years ago. Because of this, there are many different remains, also known as archaeology, around the coastline of Shetland from a variety of different time periods. Some of these sites would have been much further inland when they were in use but as the sea has eroded the land, they now sit on the coast.
