IT WORKED... IT FREAKING WORKED!!.. I knew that if I would have any chance at
survival it wouldn't be from hiding, so I redirected my efforts towards
building up some defense. I read a while back about kessler syndrome, where
there's so much debris in orbit you can't place a satellite without it getting
demolished, so they started equipping warsats with ACD (active contact
defense).. They can obsorb energy from smaller debris, and when something
bigger gets in the way it releases a blast to clear a path. Anyways I found a
downed warsat and was able to modify its superconductor to make my own ACD in
the form of gauntlets. I think I'll call them AC-DC feedback fence. I'm still
trying to lay low, but I feel a little more comfortable engaging smaller
enemies now.
