I suspect this is probably real. It's really not "force fields" at all, just anti-missile defense on a very small scale!

Incoming radar tracks the object, then it shoots something-- probably a high-power, short-range laser, or perhaps a spray of projectiles-- at the target.

For all who don't know already, that last link by Lunever shows the comic strip where my name Trantor comes from.

Ich nehme ja mal an, daß Du auch das Spiel Trantor kennst. Wenn ich mich recht entsinne, war das eines der handvoll Spiele, bei denen die Schneider CPC Version deutlich tauglicher war, als die C64-Umsetzung.

Ich kenn das Spiel, hatte es damals aber nur auf dem C64. Zur CPC-Version kann ich also nichts sagen... Auf jeden Fall hat es mich auf dem C64 nicht sonderlich beeindruckt.

Just played the tutorial but I like it already. Faces looked familiar... I scanned the credits: Francisco Muñoz! Remember him? He made some DM avatars.

yes, we have his anime avatars in here. I found out later though they were just traced and slightly modified with color mostly. They match exactly to annother famous anime series that I stumbled across when doing research. I hope that is not the case for this project. It looks pretty good.. and free. However, I do see a couple familiar images. :S

I wonder if he'll ever submerge himself in a large spherical glass bowl and become seriously ill? That would be original.... ;)
