Whatever other projects that are currently ongoing at Merlin attractions. Some we probably already know about, just not what the internal project names for them are.
Assuming that 'decorative motif' is the Phalanx logo?Some more documentation was added to the application this morning. Nothing particularly exciting or that gives away what ride system is planned but, if this is designed to split FV in half, the queue line will start on the Nemesis 'half' of the area. Also, a quarter of all themed fence panels are to receive a decorative motif (which has been hidden for planning purposes)
Also, the updated 3D model document states that the two cylinders (like the cube) are to show the maximum extent of the themed features and that the final form may alter. So maybe they are just theming and not necessarily anything to do with the mechanics of the ride system. The wording could be interpreted either way, either they are elements that have been added and themed, or they're features of the ride system that are to be themed.
Complete stab in the dark, but the fact it's worded as 'hidden', rather than either not mentioned at all or that the design hasn't been finalised yet, suggests that it might give away what the ride system is going to be. If this is to be a Top Spin, as an example, maybe there's some sort of saw blade as part of the design that would immediately give the game away.
I think the reduced head height could provide a hint to the ride type, as it would probably have something which lowers down/creates the lower head height, (like a retractable floor)Some more documentation was added to the application this morning.

I don't think a Tourbillion would fit in the space given, and there doesn't seem to be an anchor point behind the platform that the arms would be fastened to. Would be cool though!
Oh, I never said I'd crunched the numbers!
Also unlikely in my opinion due to the split platform. Time will tell, though!
I guess having one Nemesis themed shop literally just after the underpass wouldn’t be too much of an issue, however maybe the long term plan is to move this into the new and much larger arcade building currently being built?
