Hi, I am new and trying to be social.

I am currently working on a gritty sci-fi book about the end of the world. And today my friend was looking at this site and I noticed that it is full of weapon technology threads, which can help me with coming up with ideas for realistic weapons for my story.

Plus life is fairly boring and sites like this give me ideas to expand my imagination.
So anyway. Hello everyone.

Welcom, Phantom...You have just entered the Twilight Zone....

I'm sure everyone would agree we hope to give you ideas and just so you know, you're likely to not be able to leave again.....

Welcome Phantom! I hope you'll find ATS to your liking.
