"Hmm, that does sound tempting. What can I get on the more technical and special side of protection for around 10 tokens that can protect my suit?"

Ask about more technical options in my current price range. Also, find out how much it costs for both the armour plating and a single amp plate on one hand that I can turn on and off.

[Patrick Hunt]

Maybe I can fire a heat ray at him to get it back out of my body.

((Your character is a fishman, not an energy manipulator. I think moving is a better idea. I know that manipulators are more difficult to use against erratically moving targets, I suspect the same goes for amps, since they target a specific coordinate. Hence moving in a manner that make trajectory hard to predict can cause issues for Xan.))

[Xantalos]

((Depends on whether I melt your brain before that. Honestly it's just a measure of who gets off the first shot.))

[Corsair]

((Uh Just checked PW I think I should have 5 tokens not 4 (10 for mission + 2 left after MMM + 1 for the rifle/battery)))
"Thankyou, is there any stealth equipment available on the cheap?"
Ask AM

((Yeah, heat is a form of energy. Trying to absorb and redirect it won't do shit.))

((the problem isn't so much the form as the location and intensity. im sure there are a few species on earth that can derive energy from heat like a plant does with sunlight.
the problem here is that even a tree which gets all of its energy from the sun will burn if the sunlight is intense or focused enough.
Then there's the fact that the energy conversion effect (solar->chemical) takes place on the external surface of the main body in the leaves.
If you were to place a powerful ultraviolet light inside a tree it would not be able to convert any of the energy due to the fact there are no leaves inside the trunk and the heat buildup would destroy the surrounding biomass.))

[Yoink]

"Hmmmm."
Jobasio was a bit lost with whatever had been going on while he was... napping.
He took off his sunglasses, slung Whig (his gauss rifle) over one shoulder, and headed for the Armory.

>Ask the AM just what the deal is with this whole 'revolution' thing I've been hearing about.

Or was it announced publicly? I've no idea. I was... napping.

[Empiricist]

((Plus that isn't unlimited. An overwhelming amount of solar energy applied to a tree's leaves won't do much except burn it. Hence absorbing and redirecting it isn't a good idea.))

((hehe i just said that

although a side benefit of this conversation is that it has triggered an idea in my mind, biological thermocouples.
i mean could you imagine having a praying mantis the size of a small dog that was capable of converting thermal energy into chemical energy via a semi-metallic alloy carapace?
Due to the fact that electricity over a thermocouple produces heat and a metal shell would act as a Faraday cage you could almost feed it by plugging it into a wall socket
through an adapter of course... cant feed it 230/240 volts all at once. ))

[Kriellya]

Oh btw Piecewise? I just got an idea for some kind of artifact/Nyars box.
You ever see Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy? They had something called a "Point of View Gun"
I want one.))

(( If you get a PoV Gun, I want some SEP glasses. Pretty please? They can come with his PoV Gun if you want ))

[Tavik Toth]

Go check out APC.

[Doomblade187]

See if I have enough stuff to make the gun (Gauss rifle and laser rifle), or if I need to apply to the AM to prototype it.

[Sean Mirrsen]

okay what the hell... something is going seriously wrong here...

fire some overcharge pulses at crawler then jet away again.

((Piecewise i gotta ask... are you fudging the rolls just to screw with us?))

((He's wanting to get the intermission wrapped up and the revolution started by Sunday, so I'm not entirely against some overblowing of roll results. Not fixing, mind, just exaggerating the outcomes. Such as "rocks fall, you die".

It's not like a lot of us can do much of the meaningful stuff in the meantime. People are burning money on Nyars' toys. The next missions can't come soon enough.))

((don't get me wrong im having lots of fun failing miserably and find it quite entertaining, i just cant help but notice that every roll has been either a natural 1 or a modified/natural overshot ))
