I think you've just hit the summer recess. Story's good, a bit depressing.

I guess Titan Squad duty ain't so bad after all is it?
Here is me Crappoid observations about ye story:
a) The story takes place in the Beyond or should I say the Lost worlds. These are worlds beyond the sphere of Core world authority. Thus the Beyond/authority. Hence No Law thus No Human Rights etc,. . .
B) If selling a human/replicant/cyborg/android to a titan squad earns the prison $25k; would they really be that quick to execute their prisoners? I trust in the avarice of humanity. I'd think they'd sell as many prisoners as possible though it smacks of Slavery. In Warring Suns we no longer get new recruits from Prison instead, there are Training camps. We(Vicious Byte and Matrix Games) very much disliked the idea of slavery in the TOS universe or any other for that matter. Though I suspect that there is some going on in one of the unknown human occupied worlds. Of course, this would only occur 'Beyond'. Core world authority would crack down very hard on any Human Rights violations. Sadly, Enforcement can only be sent so far until it craps out. We are talking about about 30 billion lightyears of open space.
C)Titan-AT squads are the current/(TOS timeline related) version of Law enforcement. Most worlds that are Beyond do not have high technology. This means that a well equipped Titan-AT squad can conquer an entire planet within months. They are very efficient and cost effective. I'd say more but I'd be telling you to much about TOS:WS. But I can say that some of these worlds have TOS squads of their own. . . the bastards!!!
