Lars looks at Vich, then shakes his head pityingly.  "You are new here, but I am sure you will soon get a chance to see his glory."  He turns away and focuses on his wristpad again.

Message back to AM:

I thank you. I will do that when I come to pick up supplies for this mission.  I will also take you up on your offer of gun repair, and I will be getting a Mk II suit.

"Anything really, I just want to be able to talk and fit through doors and be an unstoppable death machine of course."

Gorat shakes his head.

"Whoa, did I just snarl at you? Sorry, please do change the channel. I think it's a bad influence on me."

Did one of you do that? If so, just go digging through my memories of May and Faith. Okay, maybe don't dig too deep about May.

Apologize. And scold, if necessary.

>Try looking for an option on the exoskeleton such as, say, a mode for enhancing movements by amplifying the movement impulses fed to the exoskeleton. An "exaggerated movement mode", if you will. If one is found, gauge its usefulness for running. Assess other drawbacks.

>Also, see about adding an extendability option for the shin, also telescopic. Give it the ability to function with three dials - one for each leg and a larger master dial - that need to be activated from within the suit.

>Assess costs for whole thing - individually for just the leg exoskeleton, the leg exoskeleton plus diamond-tipped claws, the leg exoskeleton plus diamond-tipped claws and extendable legs.

"Never knew I could sing..."
Jack shakes his head "Anyway, what is everyone's opinion on doing this mission.."

ask question then have a maintanince check of all gear.

"Don't worry about it, I find the breast jiggling has some kind of effect on our more primitive brain functions. They really know how to captivate an audience, I think it's the camera angles-" "Nah, it's subliminal messages" "-or Subliminal messages, as the voice in my he- *cough* as I think. Still, I think six hours is enough of this"

That really got me XD))

> A steel weapon generates sparks when hit enough against another material of supposedly metallic composition - generally, copper.
> Dents and fractures do not begin at the point of fracture, the tip, but at the weakest point in the sword. The foible.
> Any blocking material such as a shield does no good against static targets; targets which do not move, unless the target is apparently made of static electricity, or has some sort of radioactive characteristic...Or exudes something not seen. Then in that case, I've blocked 73% of their probable damage.

Granted, I should've checked if there was any living matter in the area...

Feyri exited the VR and, after quick greeting with Jim, moved towards the Armory, inquiring from the Armory Master if her shield could be replaced by something of equal or better value which also works as a shield.

Ask whether the conventional stun grenades presented in the armory are effective against most alien species which is known to be malevolent towards human life - in general.

And then ask whether an MK suit could be made insulated against electricity, or upgraded with a device which clears the body inside it from microbes which aren't native to the body (ie: obviously viral pathogens), and its cost.

[TCM]

Go to armory master. Ask for pizza ingredients.

Head to kitchen and make pizza.

((Cog: I've said I didn't have time to polish it. No need to berate me. Give me a couple weeks to develop a habit.))

"I was the one screaming. Sorry. And I'm not going to hurt anybody. The man said that Steve is a god because he can fly through space and has absolute control over us. Which is pretty much every single HMRC ship as far as I know, not to mention that every single spaceship wetware can navigate through space, and can probably figure out how to use the shock implants. I think you can figure out yourself how ridiculous it is, and I have a bad tendency to get really loud during arguments."

To Lars: "Umm... Nevermind" Vich heavily signed and turned away from Lars. He wouldn't get anywhere screaming. At least not screaming about this.

Vich noticed how Mesk sliced his arm, and would have probably typed something here, but responding and roleplaying every crazy character interaction that is common in HMRC but is crazy and strange for him would take a very long time to type. Let's just leave it at that.

Send message to AM:

Hello. Is it possible to buy Sub-Skeleton Model A "Hope" for 3 tokens? Schematics included here: Just go to Nik's sig. This link is broken.

Also, does the Armory have any bicycles for sale? If yes, what models do you have and how much do they cost?

((Hah! I figured out how to do stuff while locked down.

Toaster: The link was meant to be broken. It was meant to symbolize me putting a file on my wristpad, and I absentmindedly used a link as that representation. Didn't think of using it as an actual link. I suppose I could put an actual link in there... Gah. Made it more obvious.))

Gorat kind of looks surprised at the mention of voices in the other man's head, even if he stopped from fully admitting to it. Had there been another of those flasks around, or was it just a spleen? Then Gorat shrugs and watches whatever channel the other man finds.

[Corsair]

"So who is going on the long mission?"

((Then suddenly, there were fifteen.
HOWEVER, currently it seems we only have 1 medic (mesk), and quite frankly, this seems like not enough for this mission, mesk's excellent doctoring notwithstanding. So, is there anyone else in this roster that is a medic too? Or alternatively, is there any other medic (With at least +1 to rolls) even available for this mission? If not, we'll just have to make do, but we'll need to be very careful not to lose him; lest we wind up without a doctor for a year.

Spoiler: current roster, not final yet.
(click to show/hide)

Toaster:  Brother Lars:     Chaplain (Good with divine matters), Rifleman.  Has MK II Suit.


Remalle:     Mesk Vraite: Kickboxing Doctor.  Mk. III suit, Advanced kit, monoatomic razor, near-Wolverine regeneration.


Tavik Toth:     Jack Hansan, grunt, katana, shotgun, laser rife, gauss rifle and civic defenders longcoat


Thearpox:     Vichislav (Vich) Freidberg: Diplomat. Has MKI suit. Will buy one of Sub-Skeleton models (+3/5 to Str and End). Amp OR Manipulator user. Never went on a mission.


Kisame:    Morul Migrurkeshin: Mercenary(Conwep), Magical See-All goggles, See-All eye. Has MKI suit.


Sean mirrsen:    Anton Chernozorov: Technician/Inventor. Wields the closest equivalent to Force Lightning available, but only in atmosphere; otherwise just has a dinky laser and a shock gauntlet with inexhaustible batteries. No missions yet.))


pyrodesu: Second in command, Simulacrus ("Simus") Ferratum-Inanis: Competent inventor, builder, and scientist, wields mostly custom weapons, also has a Phase Suit. 2 missions.


Pariah:    Auron, technician + conventional weapons, can afford Mk II suit


paris:    ((Flint: MK2, Mining exosuit, Mining laser, Conventional weapon skills, some Speech skills, balanced build, 1 mission, at least 5 tokens to spare so I'll probably buy some other things too, can do auxiliary rolls, and here's my character sheet (look at the end of the post by piecewise).))


mutzel:    Zephyris is a freshly awakened inmate (No missions yet). She kinda knows the basics of how to perform medicine (Med 2), shoot things (Con 2) and can think up solutions out of thin air (Intuit 1, +1 Roll-bonus). She's pretty bad at rousing speeches of awesome though (-2 on rolls) and doesn't know jack about the other skills. She also owns a used crystal projector with 7 shots left that she may or may not trade in for an emergency kit. Sadly she only has the basic Mk1 Suit.


Corsair:    Michael alexander - specialty auxillary systems and long range support


((Bishop: Technician/Auxiliary Systems specialist. MKIII suit, rocket rifle, gauss rifle, monorazer, cutting torch. Faster regeneration and anti-shock therapies.))

prosperus:    Lukas:  Killer Robot, has defensive laser droids (back), particle cannon (chest), laser (arm), gauss gatling gun (arm), shotgun, sniper rifle (small particle cannon), repeater rifle (I have to check at home what it is specifically, don't have that info here), bullseye mode, incredible strength, but slow and pretty useless in small spaces.


Miyamoto de Bergerac, expedition leader, battlesuited AUX specialist

If there is no other medic available, this will be our unit list. I'll wait until tomorrow evening to give the final list, if PW is ok with that. If he isn't, then these shall be your valiant explorers.))

[Sean Mirrsen]

"Okay, good enough for a first take." Anton thinks out loud as usual, testing the program's behavior on nearby tables, chairs, and teammates. "Now let's expand it, hm?"

Save a backup of the optical tracker program, and start expanding it. In addition to tracking a selected target, make it track the entire image, measuring relative distances to observed objects through parallax shift detection. With a single feed, this obviously only works while the camera is moving, and likely does nothing to gauge actual distance, but helps with detecting approaching obstacles.
((Intended use: Scout Eye and drone software for collision avoidance))

((@Radio_Controlled: Well, asking Faith to enlist could be worth a shot. Even without her mutant band-aid powers, she's still technically a medic.))

[Caellath]

Yeah, I'm getting a magazine for it. Mine's almost dry.

Milno just sends the short message and stays on the sofa, waiting for the next time he has to enter action. Without much to do, his mind wanders back to the time he was still bound to the dirt and soil of his homeland. But it is also awfully boring - the life of a farming community seems less interesting the more he recalls about it.

He can't help but wonder if his uncle has also been captured and is now in the HMRC. Maybe in this same ship, and he may have already been freed from stasis before Milno was and died before it was his nephew's tim. Alternatively, he may have done it past the ten missions, you never know.

Send message, check VR for the past missions (generic way of being allowed to use knowledge from other missions without meta).

((@Long Mission: And now that Faith lost her body, no one will feel needy and try to grope her.))

((Only the Kickboxing Doctor as a medic?  Oh dear.))
