In Response To: You. (Wing)

: Whens the last time you saw your average P'for using one of their health
: stations? What about a Bob? No? Perhaps these don't dispense flesh-healing
: materials or energy or whatever. Death would be preferable to having alien
: substances with an unknown affect on humans being pumped into you,
: wouldn't it?What if beneath this suit, we were the 10th battleroid. What
: if our enhanced muscles were regenerative with an application of certain
: materials? What if the P'for's cyborgs are similar?

I figured the "health" stations are energy chargers - good for charging any electronic gizmo that has the proper plugs. The Pfhor probably use'em to recharge their Hunter suits and whatever dull utilitatian tools they have that are never seen in the game. So, you need an adapter (the S'pht Energy Converter, for instance) to use 'em.

They have a great transfer rate though, recharging your suit within seconds - must use superconductors of some kind.

: Save buffers? [snips out the rest]

Heh, I could probably think up some good technobabble - in fact, I have - but none of it really works within the context of the game. Saving the game is a metagame device, not an actual plot point, like the guy said.
