Brilliant: Cluster-wide sleeper tech contamination, recognition of capsuleer-led genocide and a mysterious force powerful enough to force the four Faction leaders to turn tail. And 514 is New Eden's number of the beast for that psychological horror angle.
Also, I really enjoyed the dialogue. Maleatu Shakor has some superb sniping lines and the interplay between the four leaders is something I would love to see acted out on screen. So how's the screenplay coming along for the movie/TV show/animated web series?
In any case, thank you Gnauton. A great read.

Excellent read that answers a few questions I had, in particular concerning the implications of farming implants from Sleepers in the long-term, and the psychological effects on those being "possessed" by a number of consciousness who would no doubt grow to dislike being ripped from heaven in greater numbers. Good to know something "clean' has been developed before the release of the technology en masse.
Many thanks, Gnauton. Loyal to the four leaders and providing a few answers in a very entertaining chronicle. |

From the Eve Wiki "The Scriptures"
"Which test reveals more of the soul, the test that a man will take to prove his faith, or the test that finds the man who believed his faith already proven? If you know this answer, then you also know which of these challenges bear the greatest penalty for failure. The gates of paradise will open for you one time only; woe to the soul who dares to knock twice." - The Scriptures, Book of Missions 5:14"
The last line seems pretty well connected to Dust 514. |

Why do people guarding the leaders of the four empires have weapons that are susceptible to EMP if it's such a common tactic. We saw the same tactic in Empyrean Age and Templar One: EMP burst, then engage with ground forces.
Nobody expected this?
Are we going to be able to EMP burst a battlefield in DUST 514? |

lol, whether true or not, I love the idea. As CONCORD is considered the "king" amongst the four "princes", your interpretation would mean the end of high-sec as we know it.
That would be an apocalyptic event and immensely entertaining. I'd love to see CONCORD take the week off, but then come back and start running "incursions" into low-sec in reprisal for the inevitable tide of criminal griefing that they return to find.

I'd just love to see CONCORD take 24hrs off (probably involuntarily, ofc) and come back to find all systems (except maybe empire capitals) have taken a -0.1 sec rating hit. Permanently. I'm sure many of you could appreciate how that would shake things up!

Sleeper consciousness fragments are retained in the implants? Who cares about a few ghosts in the machine.
We are committing genocide? Well it isn't like we are stripping defensless stations of their hull plates. Frigate, cruiser and battleship class sleepers are in every site. I'd say it is a simple war. The sleepers are just loosing

yes, they played with their genetics so much that they accidentally removed some of their primal instincts, which sometimes leads to the jovian disease which makes the victim lost the will to live. They an no longer reproduce quickly either so they are slowly going extinct. Who knows, maybe theyr going to want to do all the crazy **** they've never done before they die, like go on a giant cluster wide gankfest and just facerape concord and the empires with their super advanced tech. i know, that would be immature of them, but thats my 2 isk

Or because they went mental from a similar device to the implants. What we do know about the Jove's is that they are a highly advanced race, extremely smart (but mental), maintained a space faring, they hold a lot of secrets, and GAVE a technology away for free taught the rest how to build it and we are fearful that it is a trick.
Flip side the Sleepers: Advanced ancient race, "downloading" thoughts and ideas, thoughts perceived as mental but able to tactically choose a target in defense, maintained space faring, hold a lot of secrets.
Is the reason Sarum giving the technology away similar to the reason's why the Jove been doing the same? Are they trying to keep us from this technology before it got so ingrained in our culture and only catch it to late like they did?

Some things are just done because they need to be done, and not because they somehow tie into the plot.
..anyway, good read.
Maybe I was actually sleeping in front of my computer and dreamed I posted. Certainly, it's not there now. |

True, but sometimes (quite often actually) the ones that write the plot gets told in advance about stuff that are about to be done.

Is there gonna be a tie in with how Sansha Kuvakei got the ability to make wormholes via incursions?
What about 514? Is it akin to a lost sleeper conclave?
Are rogue drones gonna help with a sleeper invasion of k-space?

Which is odd, seeing as Amarr royalty cannot be cloned, but that's going back to how Sarum came to power, and I'm sure you all know THAT story.
Also, my bad on the double post...

Thanks! That makes perfect sense. I knew about Jamyl having used cloning technology and that Heth could not due to his illness but I was not aware (or had forgot) that Roden and Shakor were also equipped for cloning. |

Jamyl's use of cloning tech/capsuleer status was a big issue for the Theology council when she returned, as they tried to block her ascension to the throne. If she had not just 'saved Amarr' from the Minmatar Elders invasion then she would not have had the public support that forced the Theology Council to back down and allow her coronation.
Heth is the odd one out as the only truly mortal head of state, which is a bit of an odd disconnect sometimes as the four 'mortal' empires are being mostly ruled by immortals, and yet all have issue with the capsuleers. Guess like all Capsuleers they are competitive and don't want to share the power. ;)
