Yeah, he's a banned spammer. Normally we'd delete this thread too, but people were having too much fun with it by the time we got here.

((Have you considered other players though? I was trying to guess it, but came about your answer before having a real chance to mull it over. You kinda ruined it for me. Even if it's the wrong answer, the principle behind it still stands. Just put it in labeled spoilers if you want to guess as well.))

((Damn, gotta post this hurriedly, they might be kicking me off the computer in a few minutes. Never mind, I barked and they left  :P

I would like to have all the preparations for the defense done by next week Saturday tops.

Because it really seems people are getting bored, and PW explicitly stated he wanted to get things moving again. So post your proposals and ideas as soon as you figure them out, because if we haven't gotten things 100% figured out by then I'm just gonna use up whatever is left of the budget. Just assume Miya does this IC if you need to. Besides, this is the kind of situation where one could spend forever getting everything perfect. Instead I'd say we just go for it and wing it from there.))

Find Miyamoto and ask if I can join the assault team.

Quote from: Steve Saint to Miyamoto De Bergerac

Hello.  My name is Steve Saint.  I'm a new recruit, although to what I've been recruited, I have no idea.

You are the pilot of an Avatar of War, correct?  I've been told that you would be the person to ask for information, especially information about a 'coming conflict' that will be happening soon.

Can you explain the situation to me?
((Is this just to gain IC knowledge? Cause if yes
Explain the things to the guy.
Or did you want a real response? Also, added you to Assault, if that's ok.))

((Now, I personally think that, if Gamerlord wants to do things with his character like attacking the fleshmonsterc while he and his teammates are still in it, he should just do so without having to fear players bashing him OOC. As long as he's prepared to face the in-game consequences of course, and naturally everybody can tell him it's not a bright idea, but if nobody ever did anything stupid, we'd lose out on a lot of !FUN! (e.g. Grate incident). My character isn't involved in this though, so I'm probably not in a position to speak. That said

((I might be able to get away with an 'accident'; I wasn't even considering it, but since everyone is being such a whiny bitch about hypothetical teamkilling it's starting to get more and more attractive as a career path.))
((Dude, not cool. Curse people all you want, but please keep it in-game. No need to start attacking players. But if you want to flip the bird to Miyamoto in the game, by all means, go for it! See what happens, heh heh heh.))

((Well, we only have two big holdups before we can get together and brainstorm the preparations. First is the biohorror hole, but that is steadily progressing. Second is the survey/salvage team's efforts, specifically the matter of Auron's bombardier beetle bot, as the recovered ship loadouts are all but established.

Once that is done, I think we could hold a big meeting of minds, so to speak, and decide what is to be done and how.

As far as I remember, there are only a few matters.
  • Construction of new static defenses, and reinforcement of existing ones.
  • Establishing a planet-wide monitoring network.
  • Deciding on the rank-and-file troops that will be fielded by us to counter the UWM Sods.
  • If we have the ability, additional defenses and projects
Is that right? I have some ideas on the middle two that could be interesting, but of course you already know one of them. :P I'll make an effort nevertheless. ^_^))

((edit: Also,
((Can't we use amps or something to tow it around with us?))
Theoretically, yes. But highly theoretically, and given our history of amp abuse, I think I that it's not going to end well.))

I would like to suggest, once again, FOBs for the assault team in the surrounding mountains, preferably with artillery emplacements.

((Please, be specific, and ask PW for actual prices. I've seen a lot of great ideas, but almost nothing really concrete. I proposed the resource units thing to PW because I feared we'd get bogged down with the infinite options and possibilities there are, with people spouting ideas but not really getting anything done, so if you want me to add stuff, tell me what it is and what it costs.

That said, I think it'd be better if we keep out defense a bit closer to base. Because they'll have high-power long-ranged weapons, I think it'd be better if we lure them in a bit before we attack. I kinda have the feeling they'll just point a LESHO at our bunkers and blast us from afar otherwise.))
