well that how you can explain the non-disappearance of other Einstein tech

like mirage tank, chrono, etc

The Jigsaw Theory can repair most damage to a timeline in a short amount of time, unless too much was attributed to what was removed. Then, it takes time to heal, like a deeper wound can take weeks to heal up, while a papercut can last for a few days.

well.cos the soviets returned between ra1 and ra2,in ra1 there were chrono and mirage however not prism,prism was a new thing in ra2 so in ra3 timeline einstein were killed before prism tech were created.

i see, i see... *rubs chin*

Mirage was not one of the things RA1 had. Chrono technology...yes, but mirage? No. They did have some sort of cloaking ability that suddenly vanished, though. But that wasn't mirage.

Mirage=Stealth,or?

[OmegaBolt]

Mirage disguises as a tree or rock.

[some_weirdGuy]

so basically cloaking the tank, and projecting a replacement image, or hiding the tank behind a replacement image...

[Thats me!]

i know, i have played with the mirage tank alot of times in ra2,and it shows itself as a tree,however for me mirage=stealth

[OmegaBolt]

Well, unless you two are oblivious to the topic, you would realise the whole point is to say that the Mirage tank is not in Ra1. The Phase Transport (I believe thats what Rentt was talking about) which was in Ra1 "disappeared" from view, unlike Mirage tanks which just change their visible form.

[Rentt Redwood]

Yeah. It was the Phase Transport. Course, the word phase tells you already that the technology was much more different than mirage technology. Makes me wonder whatever happened to it.

[some_weirdGuy]

was too nod like, so they scrapped it probably...

and you do know the original purpose of chrono was to try and make the ship invisible, but instead it teleported it...
(or thats how i heard the story goes, as its based on a supposed 'real' even)

For our less enlightened members, he's talking about an alleged experiment undertaken by the US Navy in the early 40s, called the Philadelphia Experiment. I say alleged because at the minute, it's nothing more than a conspiracy theory. With World War 2 still in progress, the Navy tried to use technology to take advantage of Einstein's postulated Unified Field Theory (go Google it, I'm not going to explain it here), to try to make a ship invisible. This was fitted onto the USS Eldridge, a destroyer. Apparently, when the fields were activated, the ship completely dissapeared from the Philadelphia docks. Crew at the Norwich docks in Virginia (where the ship was originally moored before going to Philadelphia) claimed to see the ship at their docks for a brief moment, before it faded out again. When the ship appeared back in the Philadelphia dock, many crew members were found ill, or with brain damage - their minds being essentially degaussed. Some people were even said to be fused to the hull of the ship. And so the project was terminated.

Or so the story goes, anyway

[some_weirdGuy]

exactly

Well, i can't say much on this flamebate, but i like the work so far, but let's wait they come up with something good, although it's Evil Armada Games we're talking about here, but what the heck.... i'll play a bit of CNC: TD i got today
