The Art of the Weapons
We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again: a fruitful life is a long life, and in Tau Station, a long life is an armed life. Survivors of the Catastrophe are naturally resourceful thinkers, and anything, from a busted pipe to an energy-blast hand-cannon, can and will be used for both defense and offence. Previously, with The Art of the Guns we offered a glimpse into specific gun types found in Tau Station. Today, we present you with other various tools of survival; all able to be used when conflicts come into play.
The Art of the University
“For learning, life improvement, and subject matter expertise, without the hassle of actual studying, the University of Tau Station offers a quick, simple solution. Education is only an injection away.”
Humankind is rising from the ashes of the Catastrophe, searching for lost knowledge just like Wreck Runners of København seek lost spaceship technology. The Universities throughout the galaxy function on the premise that an educated population is a population best suited to survive. For a small fee, that education can be yours.
The Art of the Inn
“Whoe’er has travel’d life’s dull round,
Where’er his stages may have been,
May sigh to think he still has found
The warmest welcome, at an inn.”
~William Shenstone
After a day spent scavenging in the ruins or mining the ice rings of Saturn, having a place to unwind, rest, catch up with friends, or meet new ones is much appreciated.
The Art of the Guns
The primary driving force in the successful tenure of the space traveler is simple: survival. Whether entering a strange new station, scavenging for goods, or trying to level the playing field with an obstinate negotiation gone awry, sometimes a well-armed response might be your best hope for a tidy outcome in the Tau Station universe. A post-scarcity life can get rough from time to time. It’s best to be prepared with the proper tools to smooth it all out. Sometimes, the best tool is one of our various styles of guns.
Previously, we offered a glimpse into The Art of the Market and The Art of Space Travel. This week we’d like to present you with a sample of weapons devised by the Tau Station art team.
The Art of the Market
Peace is a natural effect of trade.
Charles de Montesquieu
Peace may not be the first word that comes to mind when walking through a market in the Tau Station universe. From the raucous harmony of a vendor hawking his wares, to the acrid, metallic taste lingering in the air after a potential customer tests out a gun at the Hephaestus Weapon Tech booth, the Market place is always one of the most chaotic and vibrant areas on a station.
Recently we showed you a glimpse of what our very talented artists were creating in as far as space travel. This week, we invite you to enjoy a small tour of some of the many interesting aspects of our market places.
The Art of Space Travel
We are gliding across the world in total silence, with absolute smoothness; a motion of stately grace which makes me feel godlike as I stand erect in my sideways chariot, cruising the night sky.
– Michael Collins (astronaut)
Outer Space and Beauty have always been two concepts that often find a great kinship in each other, both in the stunning visuals of the universe around us but also through the lenses of our own imaginations. While Tau Station will always strive to harness the boundless creativity of your own imagination through engaging narrative and an immersive universe, we are just as committed to presenting you with stunning visuals crafted by the deft fingers of our talented artists.
This week, we would like to present you with various images inspired by the concept of travel within the Tau Station Universe.
A Visual Visit to Your Local Clone Center
Clones and cloning are unique elements found in Tau Station. They are an integral part of our universe, serving as both interesting plot devices and essential parts of game play. Knowing how important they are to your experience, we’ve also had our art team craft visuals that help illustrate the cloning process in details that go beyond imagination.
