Precursor tech

Well, having never read the old inconsistencies I don't know if it's ever been mentioned before, so have patience with me. also, it's not much of an inconsistency...

I just thought it worth mentioning that in SC1 you find precursor tech all over the place, and it can upgrade your ships very well. however in Sc2 you find very few Precursor artifacts and none for them can modify your ships...

This is a good point...

I think at the time of SC1 TFB were just using the "Precursors" as an excuse to put random powerups in the game, and when SC2 rolled around they decided to actually flesh out the backstory.

Hey, do Fred and Paul actually read the boards here?  I mean, I know they used to occasionally participate in the old boards, but I mean the new ones.  Anyone know?

At least Fred seems to pop up from time to time on the UQM board, where he is a registered user. Around here, I dunno.

  I haven't noticed them posting since the boards were upgraded, but that was pretty recently.  They only ever posted like once or twice a year, I think.  Watch out; April Fool's Day is just around the corner!

April 1st is coming up soon... So I'd better create me a new account then :D

btw, if you see a registered member called Fred, and he posts on April 1st... Don't believe it.
