So the allegans reached the moon

[KarstenS]

The interstellar transmitter in Azyz Lla was already a hint for spaceships, but after that long time, I didn't expect to get more than that anymore.

Yeah, they showed the Allagan spaceship in the Mare Lamentorum trailer. Here's another angle:



As much as it looks like it still works or is at least powered up somehow, judging by the blue lights, it looks crashed and the tower architecture in Mare Lamentorum doesn't look Allagan -- instead, it looks Amaurotine -- so I'll bet Allag's space program didn't go as well as they wished.

Also they lifted up an artificial moon... while maybe not as high as the real one, the sure know how to space travel lol

[MikkoAkure]

Well the Allagans put Dalamud into space. Plus the "swords" that were expelled from Dalamud in the ARR scene are called "Ragnarok-class starships". So they were definitely in space, but how far they went and what else they may have done up there is something else altogether but I'm sure we'll find out when we go ourselves.

Any bets on "Allagan spaceship dungeon with recycled Labyrinth/Syrcus gear models"?

Late Allagan would probably fit better but they don't seem to recycle PVP models (at least thus far) and we're overdue for the others being reused.

Technically speaking, we don't yet know that the Allagans reached the moon, even if that is a perfectly reasonable conclusion.

We know the Allagans hit the moon. We don't know if any Allagans were on the thing they shot at it.

We also don't know when that ship arrived on the moon. It might have been up there since before the fall of the Empire -- or it could be very recent, maybe launched there from Dalamud when it started falling. It's even entirely possible that it's how we get to the moon in the first place -- we could hastily jury-rig a scavenged ship because we need to get to the moon very fast for some reason, and end up crashing it there as our starting point into Mare Lamentorum. There are plenty of different possibilities. It's clear that it would have been possible for the Allagans to get to the moon -- Dalamud itself would probably be enough evidence of that -- but the history of this particular ship has yet to be told.

This gives me the image that the Allagans had a chocobo on that ship much like how the Russians shot a dog into space and the US sent chimps. And that chocobo has been living on the moon ever since...

Maybe that is the spaceship we will use to reach the moon and it crashed when we got up there? Then somehow we find a way back down.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking it was.

As for getting back down, we can teleport? lol Means no moon trip for Thancred, though, unless he plans to live there.
