Anyhow. http://www.bloodgod.com/smgray/index.html for all
related materials. Comments, as always, are greatly appreciated. Have
fun!
Thank you for the URL.
"Oh, good. Do they include another alien race with bigger guns?"
"No."
Darn. So much for Plan A.
"Incorrect. If you can assemble them all, four Senshi remain. The
Sa'an have slightly fewer than three million Legionnaires on this world.
Thus, you are outnumbered roughly seven hundred and fifty thousand to
one."
See? Not even close to a million to one. I like this guy.
Actually, the Legionaires don't really count. Only so many can be in range
at a time; it's the independent actors like the Commander and
Vice-Commander that really count and we've only seen two of them so far.
The captive Senshi probably count to some extent, but they apparently have
a very limited free will available yet. How much they can hide from their
controllers should be important.
We have seen Saturn, Mercury, Uranus, and Tsunami. Either Hyde is not
counting the captured Senshi like Jupiter or he is and he isn't aware of
Saturn and Mercury yet.
It looks like distinguishing between communicating with Hyde and with the
Grid may be a problem for Tsunami. At least she will have to be careful if
she wants to avoid anyone monitoring her Grid access from being aware that
she is talking to Hyde as well.
