MemberFacehuggerMay-03-2017 9:27 PMPretty cool to hear
our diggers will be using the rifles that were used in A:C with some extras that were ahead of the time too. Gotta hand it to Ridley and the crüe; they're ahead of the curve.
Ati: I also spotted more inscriptions on the steps that I've added a pic of as well.

MemberFacehuggerMay-03-2017 11:23 PMWho is using these guns?
And is that a 1911/2011 race gun in the first picture?

MemberFacehuggerMay-04-2017 2:35 AMThanks for the link. I hadn't seen that yet! That gun just threw me off because I wondered why they would be using a race gun in AC, but I guess it does look pretty futuristic. I did not hear anything about "diggers" though.

MemberOvomorphMay-04-2017 4:56 AMhow are you translating sherris? must of missed the translation thread, if there're complete translations of prometheus wall texts i'd be very interested to know.

MemberOvomorphMay-04-2017 5:11 AMWaftlord I have been through the wall text and the phonetical hierarchy branches out in to PIE territory, meaning it is far more complicated than the snippets we have tried to translate.
I will be trying again today, as I have a slow day at work. Check the "translate this" thread for more later.

MemberFacehuggerMay-04-2017 5:39 AMDirtWolf: a digger is Aussie slang for an Australian soldier :)
Thanx for your help Sherris. As IllegalAlien mentioned, head over to Ati's thread to get in amongst the inscription translation attempts. Your help would be much appreciated ;)

MemberChestbursterMay-04-2017 5:57 AMi attempted to translate the last pic (and another similar)
using the engineer font from this site.
attempted translation from last pic
i have it as 5 letters on the top row, 5 letters on the bottom.
obviously there is more to the writing than that one pic shows.

MemberChestbursterMay-04-2017 7:37 AMtonehound - i managed to work out that the writing around the opening says -
life and death - this is on the bottom row.
we can only see "I" the "L" is actually hidden and i worked backwards.
i nearly have the top line but i need a little more time
