Hey. Blue Beetle here.

I know that after all this, the last thing we're thinking about is the UE's soldiers, but something's been bugging me. Everyone who was on the distraction team with me, you must have noticed the new soldiers, right? They didn't have anything like them on Elmer's world, and I'm pretty sure that war was an all-hands-on-deck sort of deal.

The normal soldiers were really well equipped as it was, but these ones must have been metas. They were stronger, and faster. It was so busy on the field that I don't know whether or not I was seeing ones with different powers or if they all had the same skillset going on, but the ones I noticed could fly and had elemental powers.

And they were small. Like children.


[Which is deeply off-putting.]

I'm not sure what their deal is, but consider this a heads-up for what the UE's got in store, and the kind of technology we might find on them. For some reason, I don't think an army full of tiny meta-soldiers is something they just managed to find one day. If any of you ran into them too, I think it'd be good if we could get some sort of list of how much they can actually do.

Oh yeah, one last thing. Since we don't exactly have space suits around here yet, if there's any maintenance that needs to be done outside the base, let me know. I'm guessing we don't have a whole lot of people who can breathe out there, and my suit's built for space travel.

[Well, he's read most of the responses. A good deal of them anyway. Child soldiers that were lab-created is something that's not completely out of the world, since his time has that technology and has done it with animals at least, but it's still a little mind boggling to think about.

While he's looking up info about peaceful historical times for Blaine, why not. What Raphael wouldn't give for a library. As it stands, if the UE rose as a real power in... the 3100's, was it, then no one'd oppose them on anything. Or a bit earlier than that. There'd still be a lot to search through.]


I've read most of what's been said so far and, well, do we have any idea of when they could've started having the tech for the cloning?Even vaguely?

It's the same in mine, even if it's just on animals. I've already been looking into more peaceful times to get supplies from, so I wouldn't mind asking around about any new tech. Things like that are usually celebrated back home.
