True but that doesn't mean they cannot be useful as well. And I know the source and this isn't a rock solid rule there as well.

Yeah there it was just "they aren't automatically your friend any more than anyone else".

Sapphira likes to put people in place to do her dirty work without them knowing it.

Sure if they know it then you have to pay them to do your dirty work but if they don't then they're in your debt for giving them information.

That's some beautifully subtle face work there; his growing smile as he hears her voice

Even if this is not the old Niobe, it may be renamed to Niobe soon if they manage to take over the ship

I vote for the "Neobe" (neo/Niobe).

"That useless little..." She disabled your ship and there's nothing you can do, that's not useless

Happy Birthday! Are you older or younger than Canada?

If there are no planets build Dyson swarms. Why are they still even using planets in the first place? Artificial habitats are safer and can house trillions around a single star. A Dyson swarm won't be able to hold atmosphere on its own. Having to construct so much pressurized free floating habitats...

"Kari's having a bad day." could sum up most of this comic.

But long power cables would be a weak point so they'd probably have local backups in the command center.

Yeah but 50km is very short in space. From the ground that's not even half way to space.

Even if they were firing them at 90% the speed of light (in which case each impact would be a nuclear explosion) they're still going to be at a disadvantage vs a weapon that fires at the speed of light.
