Re: OOC Discussions
I think it would depend on how the technology was set up to work. My initial thought would be that deck plates in a starship would only be intended to create gravity, not reverse it. Not that the same basic technological principle couldn't work in reverse (as per the air/raft example Steve cites), but the specific component design would have to allow for that.
Anyway, it was not my intent to create a technological argument or to intentionally refute the GM's suggestion. If Mara says it can be done, then I'm good to go. Just thought I'd throw some of my personal reaction into my PC's reply, for flavour.
Now let's turn Luise and her cutlass loose, breach that fire control centre and then wreak our vengeance on Ritter and his remaining flunkies on the bridge! Boo-yah!
