    - I guess I misspoke. I meant like organized religion. - Ser Vermyn Apr 24, 12:45 2
      - Oh, the Seven have that. You'll see more of the Church and its power in later books. - TWuG Apr 24, 12:50 1

    - i have no idea on their upgrades anymore. i guess i should look into that. -- nm - tRuMaN, (not a knock off version) Apr 24, 12:10 3
      - just don't send the speedboats, bombers or rocket ships. I would assume all your older stuff would be fully upgraded - Beaker Apr 24, 12:25 2
        
        ok, i will send the old ships - tRuMaN, (not a knock off version) Apr 24, 12:38 1

      - Makes good sense. Sounds like a pretty good book. -- nm - bacon Apr 24, 12:24 1
