Brother Lars shrugged.  Well, time to see what the big deal was.

Stick a pamphlet into the pocket of everyone in VR (and if they're naked, asscrack), and hop in a VR machine as well.

((Suprise! You wake up to a priest shoving papers up your ass!))

((I bet May and Lars would get along well.))

Take in surroundings and look for possible cover to travel closer to the point where my hunter is.

You could enter the house to your right; it's partially collapsed like most of the others, but the wall and at least one room would be between you and the shooter.

(I'll point out to you that when it comes to making things using your amps alone, there are no handiwork rolls, just exotic ones. So if you were to say, make a knife by heating metal and then forming it with your other amp, it would just be two exotic rolls.

((Wait a second. Would this apply to field manipulators as well? Could someone with a universal one theoretically skip handiwork rolls entirely?))

Pretty much.

(( And, following that question, does it mean that the results of using that line of organo- amps to heal people are completely irrelevant to the medical skills (and knowledge) of the user?))

Yes and no. You'd still have to do a med roll to see what the injuries are, but the actual treatment would be a exo or uncon roll.

You jam paper into pockets, pants and crevices before taking a seat in a vr machine. It pops up some options.

Hmm...  He's probably behind cover as well, so I'll fire my laser for 2 seconds at the most likely source of cover for my assailant while making a dead sprint towards the house.

[Zako]

Bishop leaned away slightly from the melting face in disgust. Melting faces... Gross.

"What do I have that he would want exactly? You're being very vague with me."

[Toaster]

((I'm glad I could contribute something to the thread at large.))

Brother Lars pondered.  While combat training was always a good thing, this robe he had would surely provide no protection in the field.  He wondered what options there were in terms of combat-rated light fabric...

Select Tinker.  Call up all available fabric-like materials that were suitable for field work.

[Remalle]

(This game always has the most... interesting titles.)

Mesk slows down and stops doing wheelies for a moment.
"Does-doesn't anyone want to race...?  Just... just one token, you guys..."
Hearing no response, he mopes a bit before brightening up again.
Head over to the VR room!  Make sure to screech and squeal the wheels as much as possible.

(@PW: It's not an issue of rolls so much as an issue of no market for any product I would make, even if I were to roll perfect 5s all the way across the process. I mean, sure, it's be a fantastic metal sculpture, but there's no one on board who'd care to waste their tokens on something pretty much useless when they could be buying weapons or supplies to keep them alive on missions. And unlike people like Kisame or PyroDesu, or even minor tinkerers like Caellath and Zako, I have literally no ideas when it comes to making equipment.

@Spinal: I doubt I could do something as intricate as a crossbow with my amps, and as for the other you could probably just buy that off the AM without needing a middleman.)

Well, Feyri was looking for a melee weapon, and something like a mace is just a big lump of metal with sharp things on it. Plus Maurice already bought a knife that someone made with amps in a similar way. But it would mean investing a token or two in metal with the possibility of failure.

((Y'know...Feyri did promise about buying a medieval styled weapon//blade just before M3. The Golf Club just won't do 

C'mon Jim! You can do it!))

[SeriousConcentrate]

(...All right, fine, but if it turns out to be a piece of crap you asked for it. )

Jim got up with a sigh, unable to sleep. Instead he headed back to the rec room and logged online. He'd been unsuccessful in finding a sword for Feyri in the town, but maybe he could make one. First he had to look up designs, and eventually he settled on the falcata type. Next, he headed to the armory and bought some scrap metal to make several swords with, just in case he messed the first up. (No more than three tokens worth, hopefully.) Finally, he just happened to go to the abandoned airlock Simus used earlier for experiments to begin seeing what he could do.

Jim buys up to three tokens of scrap metal and attempts to make a falcata out of them with his amps. Whether or not he succeeds, if he has enough scrap left over he attempts to make another one, and so on until he runs out of scrap metal.

Also, image link denied.))

You fire your laser in the direction you think the man is shooting at you and then break into a dead sprint to the house, throwing yourself into cover behind a overturned water heater.

Bishop leaned away slightly from the melting face in disgust. Melting faces... Gross.

"What do I have that he would want exactly? You're being very vague with me."

The sheep doesn't respond so much as it just melts away, along with Mesk. You blink a few times and the familiar face, well arrangement of items on a face, of the doctor comes into focus.

"Treatment done." he says, pulling the tubes from your arms. "May be some side effects. Hallucinations, dementia, etc. Go away with time. Probably."

He shoves you all the way out into the infirmary and then into the hall before he heads back in.

There appear to be a great deal of ballistic fabrics. Perhaps you should narrow your search by properties or price.

You roll to the rec room and proceed to do very slow donuts.

You head to the armory master and ask about scrap metal.

"Well, I could give you maybe 10 pounds worth for free, 20 for 1 token and so on. Sure you want 40 pounds of scrap metal?"

[kisame12794]

"Hey Steve, how loud a noise do the MkI's block out? And is there any kind of earplug that actives and blocks out noises above a certain threshold?"

Exit VR.

"What the hell are you doing."

[Baradine]

Look around the house for something that could be used as a reflective device.

[Remalle]

"Who, me?  Uh... inventing noise reducers for you, of course!  Uh, can you, um, plug me in?"
