History & Background (Dossier)[edit]
The earliest stations tend to use fire basins or mirror-reflected light in the TL:1-3 tech epoch while later periods use flags, signal towers, or even early transmitted electrical impulses as in the more defined telegraph. These more advanced technologies become eminently workable by the TL:4-6 tech epoch.
