Aug 25
Though in some barren waste systems ice piracy is common, most people think of it as rather lame and would rather go for the gold. Besides which, for some reason it reminds them of weird holoflicks they used to watch when they were kids. The one exception to this is the rare Kunard Pirates of Vres Kordon. Not having any ice makers on their planets, and being biologically unable to invent such things as ice (strange but true), they have opted to import the ice to their world through “creative” means, e.g. stealing it from others. This is generally frowned upon by people who want cold drinks in neighboring systems and led to the great war of 2014, in the year of the fomenting weasel. They ended up making peace by simply giving the Kunards some old hotel ice machines, which the Kunards worshiped as unto a God. Sadly their planet was soon pummeled into a devestating ice age. They then began scavenging the starlanes for ships hauling space heaters. Some people just never learn.
I
at the story.
Anyway, story time perhapes?
I think the only space pirates after ice are the Saturn Scotch on Rocks Runners.
Yeah, there’s always those guys.
Yeah, they are on ice freighters faster than Martini Martian Pirates pillage onion and olive shipments.
Out of curiosity, has anyone else here SEEN “Ice Pirates”? A good flick to watch REALLY late at night when you’re getting stupid w/ a bunch of friends.
I saw it ages ago when I was a kid. It’s totally a really late night with friends when you’re getting stupid movie.
