Errr....isn't that the one that gets sunk?  I'll be heading for the liner BEHIND the Thunderchild. ;)

Whatever it is, it's damn interesting. :salute:

Granted it's the wrong ship to board, but you only know that because you've read the book/listened to the soundtrack etc, but what you've done is acknowledged the fourth wall. I am only doing what everyone else in the story did - head for the Thunderchild, as I'm keeping within the canon of the story - you've gone rogue my friend!

Love Rogue Trooper. I'd like to see it made into a film now they got Dredd nearly right.

Even the PC game was enjoyable for being Rogue out there on Nu Earth.

My second thought was "oh, new dent", figuring it to be the debris cloud from an impact.

Of course, my first was "better this than a jet of blue flame, like gas shot from a gun". And having passed it around the office, discovered just how poorly read my coworkers are. :(

Only one person got the reference. A couple more accused me of being more poetical than normal.
