Exit VR then go watch competitive knife throwing.

That would be most kind of you. I was not exactly aiming for becoming a mind Juggernaut, after all, more like having a slightly better chance of resisting that sort of influence.
Politely accept the Armory Master's offer.

Just for the record, Denzen has his weapons on him at all times. Just saying.

Well, the particles stay stable enough for two primary reasons. The first, according to the wikipedia article, is that the chamber of gas neutralizes the charges on the hydrogens, reducing soread due to ionization pulling/pushing. The second is that the particles are moving at near lightspeed, so there's not much time to spread out.

((Can I get a link to this wikipedia article that explains how to build a neutral particle cannon (It's not an ion cannon, "Ion" and "Neutral" contradict one another there)?

Also, don't forget, if you fire that thing in atmosphere, you might very well create Bremsstrahlung radiation, and that would be bad. As in, crank that thing up too much and we're talking soft cosmic rays, with a surface radiation level of over 500 grays. 10 grays means that you are guaranteed to die. 80 grays is the output of a theoretical neutron bomb to put AFV crews into a coma effectively instantly and death within a very, very high-end maximum of 24 hours.

This warning goes to anyone experimenting with particle weapons.))

"Steve? Could I order a custom automanipulator?"
Use the wierdvision to peer inside the gravity manipulator. Then spawn a gauss rifle, and a standard gauss round. Add three blades to the slug like an expanding broadhead. Spawn a human dummy, and shoot him with the modified slug. Observe effects.

((Eh. It was more a test for the limitations of a automanip, than anything else.))

((No, he thought he was making a closed-loop atomic lithium antimatter fusion conduit. The size of a minivan. Theoretically, mass-energy conversion efficiency in excess of 100%, and self-sustaining. Don't even ask how it was supposed to work, because he was clearly delusional, in that particular regard at least. He did apparently manage to build a high-energy helical particle accelerator though, that doubled as a highly focused induction heater slash ion cannon. The device burned a hole through the wall of his apartment/lab/workshop, and flash-vaporized all metal inside the apartment complex it was next to, including all of the building's superstructure. And subsequently exploded. Most of Anton's left side is covered in poorly healed burn marks.))

"OH CRAP! He's behind me. He must be behind me. Where else would he be!? If I don't get away from him he'll kill me.
If I try to move he'll probably kill me as well. Still, I have to run..but my body won't move an inch
I have to stay calm. I'm sure the other guys here will...WHO THE HELL AM I KIDDING!? They didn't notice him sneaking up on me in the first place!
Screw it all! I'm not gonna be any demon's dinner."


Muster my will and courage to leap away from whatever's behind me and keep my distance to it.
Look around for anything that could be used as a weapon, stay alert.
Also alert teammates in the rec room.

Chaz was about to try a combat situation using the VR, until he was interrupted by someone. Ehh... is it really that bad?

Have the VR create a random map.
Have the VR spawn enemy soldiers, starting at a skill level of Recruit.
Have a few rounds against them using what weapons I currently have.
Every time I win: Increase skill level by one rank. Every time I lose: Lower skill rank by one.
Respond to the voice with:


"What Demon? I just got here!"

Save progress (of particle cannon, if it was possible) and step out of VR, monoatomic sword at the ready.

((A demons you say?, Also event though that radiation sounds extremely bad the suits are highly resistant to radiation although keeping the radiation below the max tolerance for the suits would be good although I cant wait to field test as the theroised effects
sounded pretty brutal(nigh instantaneous superheating and massive kinetic energy transfer. ) Also here is the article pyro: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particle_beam_weapon))

Addendum;
Upon hearing the screams of the madman about Demons or something and postulating that something weird has occured, Save and password protect project and go buy a microwave manipulator and then find this supposed "demon".

So it was like a binary search, except the question is "Has the input been brutally murdered?", and it only ever returns True.

Hey guys, my head is hurting pretty good tonight, probably mspaint poisoning, so I'm gonna put you off until tomorrow morning. Worry not, I shall be back to stare in dumb confusion at your physics super weapons soon.
