SuperWittleGuy Not necessarily so. Ectomorphic aliens doubtless come from smaller planets with lesser gravity They would be weaker than we are because their skeletons wouldn't be as tough and their muscles wouldn't be as strong. Remember what long times spent in the ISS, which has no artificial gravity, does to the crew members.
It always gets stated that humans are perceived as weak because we are always fighting ourselves. Why doesn’t anyone ever stop to think “Hey, we might want to watch out these guys live to fight and if they can’t find someone else to fight they will fight each other”.
Its because humans don't have it easy. We have no choice but to learn how to thrive an survive or die. Especially humans with melanin out of all humans.
Yeah right? Like "cacophony" and "primitive weapons" can only get old after so many times right. Also not reslly explaining how swords can beat Energy weapons, like It was magic
@zuprazazel4380 I was more stuck on how often it repeatedly stated how "the humans changed the tide of the war. But there was a long way to go" or something to that effect
The one ship controls everything nonsense has to stop. It makes HFY too easy. Fleet Commanders are not going to turn into blithering idiots just because one ship is destroyed. This is 0.01 AI. Not understanding simple things. Or you are just a shit reader who imagines he can be a writer.
I'd be pissed( very upset) off to be constantly called human instead of her name,all the while using his name, as opposed to just using his race. She's not the only human.
So. At the 4 minute mark, just to recap. Twice the professor has announced a human will be joining the class. Twice it has been mentioned humans come from a death world. And twice the professor has explained either what type of world the humans come from, or what a deathworld is.
It's actually based off of Harry Harrison 'Deathworld' series. Planet ecosystems are defined from level 1 'paradise' up to what was considered the most lethal, but still survivable for sentient life as a Class 9. After that you had Death worlds starting at classification 10 that worked themselves up. To be accurate, only one planet known in the galaxy is classified as level 13 (called Nightmare), and anything above that is only theoretical. As it happens, Earth was classified as a Level 12 Deathworld. What this means is while most races in the galaxy would consider training elite military on a class 9 as extreme survival, humans would consider it a vacation.
