Spawn Kiloton charge. Put it in the wall. Grab Empyrean and run far away. Detonate.

((Even an Eight Kiloton Charge would kill you all. It seems you can't move properly and a kiloton charge would explode a very large area.))

[Skyrunner]

"Try a microton charge, then?"

[TCM]

"Try a microton charge, then?"

"Oh. Okay."

Swap it out for the smallest charge possible. Then run away with Empyrean and detonate it.

((We need grenades badly.))

((Perfect idea. Let's hand a bunch of inept teamkilling alien-mindraped criminals grenades. ))

[kisame12794]

((Would you rather them throw around kiloton charges?))

[IronyOwl]

((At least they might not be able to afford kiloton charges.))

[Caellath]

((At least they might not be able to afford kiloton charges.))

((This. At the very least they have to pay for the Charges and they are expensive stuff. Giving grenades to the HMRC convicts is like giving AK-47s to every delinquent in juvie and letting them duke it out with the police of a small town. But with more teamkilling.))

Here's 2 more from the same planet as the Walking stones. The other species is alone on it's world.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Sen-ni

Also natives of the Haldar, these creatures are most known for their "mane of

arms", a phrase used to describe the six limbs which ring their upper torso.

While their locomotion is actually quite ordinary and quadrapedal upon two rear

legs and two of their front legs, they still make full use of the other limbs.

Each limb is identical to the others, relatively thin yet stringy and powerful,

with two "elbow" joints and one ball joint "shoulder". Each arm ends in a

grasping, 4 digit "hand", the digits of which are all evenly arraged around the

circular palm. The Sen-ni's many limbs allow it a great deal of freedom and

dexterity, which it uses to easily traverse the endless cave systems which

honeycomb Haldar and make up the great part of it's ecosystem.

The Sen-ni's main method of survival is to climb to a high point in the caves,

hold itself up using the limbs coming from it's back, and then attract prey

using the biolumenecent patchs on it's body. When prey wanders close it will

drop and ambush it.

Will-o-the-wisps

Will-o-the-wisps occupy a strange place in the food chain of Haldar. They are

little more then 2 pairs of fleshy wings, a great bioluminecent bulb and a

collection of razor sharp teeth and on their own are mostly harmless; as such

they are easy prey for almost anything else. However, they also form great

swarms of swirling, luminecence which can strip the flesh from anything they

come across. They gained their name when several early explorers of Haldar lost

their lives following a single individual of the species deeper into the caves,

only to be swarmed later.

Shoot the floor in a circular pattern. A large one. Each prong being no more than three inches apart. Then activate my sword.

I'll just assume you have an unlimited amount of those shall I? I'll also just skip the shooting rolls because...well you'd fail otherwise and I want you to at least fail in  fun way.

You form a rough circle of about 12 harpoon and then activate your sword. The electricity of the blade arcs out to the harpoons and begins blackening the flesh. You'd probably be very happy if it wasn't for the fact that your giant metal fucking body is also conducting this electricity. [end:5] You collapse and spasm but get up again a moment later, brushing away the remains of your eyebrows and bits of skin.

Do you actually touch the sand or just fly up and down above it?

((Fly up and down above it.))

It doesn't seem to be effected.

See some other, more powerful exoskeleton systems available.
Look for for other pre-configured armor pieces, such as the fabled Civic Defender's Long coats.
Sip the tea.
Ahh, that is it. Now, to gamble...
Who would be the most token-rich comrade here? Obviously, the iconic Bastard - the Honey Badger, comrade Milno.
After drinking some more tea, Nikitian sent a message to the Milno's VR.
This is Greiss. Comrade Milno, care to have a small bet? On how many of the comrades are coming back from this mission.

There are two ways that can go. Do you want to look for parts of systems to adapt to your current exoskeleton or you can look for whole systems. Bear in mind that whole systems may not be designed for combat, since there is rarely a need for just great strength to be focused on a single, man-sized individual.

Any specific size, use or cost range? Plate armor? Cloth? Mix? Human sized. cloth type ones vary from the Civic defender's long coats to the Magistar's "Walking Bastion" uniforms and vary greatly in their usage.

You sip some tea.

((Awww. Thats going to cost tokens right?))

Well, you could try and jury rig it from those pipes you got, but it might not be the best.

"Try a microton charge, then?"

"Oh. Okay."

Swap it out for the smallest charge possible. Then run away with Empyrean and detonate it.

You spawn a 1/8th kiloton charge and grab E's hand, dragging her along behind you as you squish along. How long do you want to go before you detonate it?

Thomas grinned and fired the gauss cannon directly into the bunker.

You aim your gauss cannon down into the bunker and squeeze the trigger. You regain consciousness an indeterminate amount of time later, half blind and deafened, blood running into your eyes from somewhere above you. You can see daylight streaming through a break in your armor, illuminating your dark cockpit  and bloodied body. Ow.
 

[TCM]

A lot.

I dunno, a 1/6th of a mile to be safe.

[Caellath]

((@Spinal_Taper: The Gauss Cannon has nuke-tipped shells. Never, ever buy one of those unless you are planning to go alone on a suicide mission.))

Milno tries to do the same but touching the sand before quickly flying upwards. If the worm follows, try to be faster then it and shoot with the laser rifle with high diffusion and high intensity at its body.

You and E slog through the worm for a long while till you finally feel far enough away. You hover your finger above the detonate button when you realize that Victor is still back there. Should you detonate it anyways?

(That or ask for non-nuke tipped. Or stand well back)

You fly down and touch the sand lightly before flying back up. The worm twitches but doesn't follow. You shrug and do your skimming touch several times drawing the worm a little higher up each time until it finally breaches the surface just a bit. [con:2+1+1] You level your laser shotgun on the worm and fire. The invisible cone of energy tears a deep gash across the worm's heavy carapace but doesn't seem to make it to the flesh beneath.
