Since almost all my source books and novels are gone, I really don't have a clue to any of these questions, So I need a little help from you folks.
1. What's the max distance a jumpship and travel at one time?
2. Where is Solaris 7 ( The gameworld) located?
3. how many gee's a dropship pull during a average run from a Nadir point to a planet?
4. does the Btech universe list any penal planet's? if so...what are their names..and where are they?
5. How many mech's does a typical Stable have on Solaris? is there a max number?
6. Does any source book or novel mention any relgion other then "The Word of Blake"? (example...do you think the Catholic faith survivied to the 30 century. )
That's about all I can think of now...I'll most likely have more later.

30 lightyears for standard and compact cores; new tech has been developed that allows 60 lightyears by combining a Lithium Battery direct into the core (thus its incompatible with lithium batteries, one or the other.) A final version is also available that allows unlimited jump distance but destroys the jump core after the jump. 1 way trip.

7th planet of the Solaris system, located within the Lyran Commonwealth along the FWL boarder near the Chaos March.

1 G. The trip takes several days and to burn harder would subject the passengers to extended stress. 2 Gs are used by high speed invasion forces but most troopers will be fatigued by travels end.

Yes. All of the worlds major religions as well as most of the lesser known ones are said to exist in canon. Most hold less of an influence do to interstellar travel... who cares about Armageddon when we have 300 other worlds to live on. But they are still their.[/quote]

I recall in one of the Stackpol books, Kai made some comment about a moon of the planet he was on having a prison on it. For the life of me I can't remember the name.
The Original House Books covered the religions of the different Houses, this seems to be missing from a lot of the newer books, or is glossed over and mentioned but nothing defining who is what beyond generalities.
