Regarding Ads specifically - Zieman would surely have an ad/logo (for their Energy Deflection Shields).
I would advise stilts for the quagmires, and camels for the snowy hills
And any survivors, their debts I will certainly pay. There's always a way!

Just don't wear them both at the same time - there's an unfortunate chemical reaction.

And Ferrari make perfume, so it's entirely possible that FdL market one too …

Is there a wiki page or something where I can see the brand names? I'd like to at least attempt one, but I'm not sure what the "big names" are or any of the background behind them.

Thanks all. :D
I'm Ravished by the Sheer Implausibility of that Last Statement

It should be a crime for Anacondas to fly without escort. That much temptation is just too much to resist.

You can find quite a few Elite brand names in the ships in service section of the Elite manual.

The honorable gentlemen and esteemed scientists who brought us the Energy Bomb...
The idea is that it looks like a big explosion and has the initials KK in it.
If someone with skills turns this into something better, I'd not only be OK with that, but honored.
