  • TADPOLE OPS GUIDE (WORK IN PROGRESS)
  • by Ruby
  • Attention and sain baitsganaa uu to all lubbers, pukers, printouts and other non-pilots. I am the senior of two qualified drivers in this mess. You will listen to and obey our instructions or lose your Tadpole privileges.
  • Rule 1. If you qualified on the Seamoth or Spacemoth, you should be ready to handle a Tadpole.
  • Rule 2. If you did not qualify, you will need training under me or Bosun's Mate Rowboat. This is not optional.
  • Rule 3. Mind your trim, mind the current, and mind your heat - remember, the Tadpole is NOT actively cooled!
  • Rule 4a. Our Tadpoles were configured for the Zezuran aquifers, so they come in a minimal config. Plug the core into a chassis. If you need to enter a cramped space, you can detach the core - Rule 4b. - but always bring your chassis HOME! If you forget one, you will be visited by your disappointed ancestors.
  • Rule 5. RESPECT THE CRUSH DEPTH. If you need to go down, you'll need a depth module.
  • Rule 6. Keep an eye on your power and ear on your noise. My dear husband (who NoA will not (yet) print more than one of) monitors all Tadpole traffic on sonar. So do the things out there which love to crack hard shells and get at the meat inside. If you run out of power, Ganzo may be able to hear you screaming before they find you.
  • Rule 7. Have fun. This is your chance to visit the elevated spiritual plane where pilots dwell.
  • P.S. If you want to hear awful recordings of me dying come by the scanner room when my husband isn't there.
