Much Obliged

I used “A Slow Drip”, losing 1 Influence.  Then I Modus Ponens to Range Move (Tengaar comes too) to 2059/3/18 (I’ve waited long enough), and then to Continuum Swirl the Focus Date’s day of month to 7 (no requirements).  I make a new Node Event at my new TL:

2059/3/18
The Arbiter discovers a mysteriously well-crafted Time Bomb, which appears to somehow have the ability to influence past and future Node Events without utilizing any known time travel techniques.

Obviously, this Node Event deserves to be considered Perilous, and I have marked it as such.

You’re just trying to make scam possibilities, aren’t you?

Well, it’s possible, but it would require rules support that just doesn’t currently exist.  I don’t have anything definite in mind, but I don’t doubt that some Travellers have already thought of things they’d like to do with a time bomb.  At least it’s way in the future.
