' Wrote:"Promethene" to be exact, which is a blend of Hydrogen2-rich hydrocarbons (Deuterium infused oil) and Prometheum. That's what Gallic ships run on. They use the larger hydrocarbon chains in oil to more efficiently store the amount of H2 used in fusion. Burning oil with oxygen for propulsion would be rather ridiculous. But seeing that this fuel is incompatible with existing H-Fuel reactors and engines, I doubt the GMG will be out of a job anytime soon.
LaBrise made a roleplay with the BDS where they'd hand them Gallic engines to outfit their ships to make them less dependent on H-fuel and therefore, one of their enemies, on the GMG. It isn`t a large scale project yet, but we were expecting to make Hogosha ships run on Gallic engines in .86.
Hogosha? That makes no sense. The Samuran factions would be mostly unfriendly with those Gaijin Gauls...
