Well mr robotic asshat sir, the thing about that there anomaly is...  Auron responds to the droid as he flicks the safety off his weapons console and suddenly opens fire ...its ours now.


Fire all energy repeaters in short controlled bursts... repeatedly if possible

((Can i get this added to my turn spoilers?

Code: [Select]

Guns/4xImperial Arms Energy Repeaters
(1d6x2 damage)I keep forgetting whats equipped on my ship.))

[Tiruin]

Inara blinked as her mind drifted from "Why in the universe would something be...stealing? Harvesting? Whatever...getting people's prefrontal cortexes."

I mean, they're...taking people's metacognitive personality as loot?

She flicked a diverter channel to her squadmates.

"Alright, everyone, we've a case of missing personalities here. Our dead fellows are missing their minds - well, part of it. Prefrontal cortex, controller of planning complex thinking, expressiveness, deciding and behavior with others...They've died of the natural deaths - lack of oxygen and the pressure of the void." As Space was a huge and deadly thing in itself, being a vacuum, 'Void' was Inara's colloquial term for it. "And trauma. Physical, mental and...well, trauma."

On a whim, she added, "And the lack of brains...Autonomous hivemind? Nearly impossible..."

Well mr robotic asshat sir, the thing about that there anomaly is...

"Ironsight, let's not antagonize the wonderful anomaly infront of us until-"

Oh cra-

Issue message @ autonomous lifeform!

Hello there Precursor.

Was it a precursor? Guh, just assuming...that's pretty impressive technology. Interesting.

Err, we were just investigating the loss of our allies and the destruction of their...station Nothing much. No hostilities meant for we pose no threat to you.

Though, explain - for we are ignorant - why are we the betrayers? We mean no harm and...for what that anomaly is, we're trying to find out.

She put the message in radio-stasis for everyone else in the squad to view before sending it.

"I'm pretty sure we must try something first...What's your take Cowboy?"

[Skyrunner]

Solana calmly checks her ship for weaponry- what kind of missile? Guided or fire-and-forget? Nothing else? What kind of dogfighting guns?

'Oh crap it's a robot thing and it's assembling itself ahhghk IT TALKS what to do okay stay calm just slooowly and unthreateningly swivel around and aim—'

Solana drifts behind Ruin, via a effortless, short burn of the engines. Observe and identify what weapons it might have, what weapons it does have, and how durable it might be. Keep radio silence.

"Ah, shit. Ironsight's firing." Scott sighed and activated his coms. "All units, fire on the robot." He looked over at Inara. "Kind of wish we could have found out more about what he was talking about, all this 'Tarran Betrayer' stuff. Well... do your best to keep us alive, I'll be manning the guns."

Cowboy opens fire on the robot with the Blackweave's tri-cannon.

[Tiruin]

Inara nodded at Scott's behest.

"Let's hope I know how to fly this thing."

This is not a time for teasing.

Who's teasing?

Also, begin evasive maneuvers and try to...flank the drone-thing...thing.

[lawastooshort]

((sorry will try to come back and flesh out turn tomorrow))

Give the thing a quick scan (is there an identifiable weak/important spot?) whilst immediately entering an evasive pattern and keeping well away from it. Letting my comrades deal with it, form a perimeter to ensure we are not bounced whilst doing so. Don't fly straight for more than a few seconds at a time.
