((@Krilleya: There probably won't be time, and you're our best chance to pilot this thing. I'd hook up a line to Steve and get in the man chair. We may all die anyway, but it'll be BADASS))


((A PSYCHIC HAS MIND-KIDNAPPED THE DEMOMAN
ARE YOU A BAD ENOUGH DUDE TO RESCUE A THIRD OF THE HRMC?))

((You are gonna need a hell of a lot more than one man to.... If I can get there..... That's a pretty big if though. Ladies, gentlemen and otherwise gendered, I have a plan.))

[Toaster]

((You'd think Steve would be able to remotely neutralize those things, especially at this range.))

[Tack]

((You are gonna need a hell of a lot more than one man to.... If I can get there..... That's a pretty big if though. Ladies, gentlemen and otherwise gendered, I have a plan.))

((No offense, but currently your plans seem to include being eaten by an impossibly incomprehensible, otherworldly alien being. But then again.. more people going for one big badass last ditch chance means more chance of dynamic bonuses and/or Crowning Moments of Awesome))

[kisame12794]

((Last stand? Fuck that, I'm getting the hell out of there. I'm hoping the scalpels mindfuckery will cancel out the current one. Either way, I ain't planning to stick in there any longer than I have to, at least not without Fishman's helmet, or other will bonus.))

[Tack]

((Now I'm confused. Who were you saying needed more than one man for what task, which you had a plan for?))

[Doomblade187]

((Missed my action, but I don't think it would have made too much a difference anyway.))

"Someone please tell me that didn't hit something important."

Am I in the way of the blast zone? If so, get to cover (in the ship if it's running). If not, enter the ship along with Teal to watch him and help him out. Use all vision modes.

[Xantalos]

Is Xan back on the ship attached to the severed head hose? If not, get attached to the hose that let's me talk and ask for someone to retrieve my body, or at least run it back to the ship. Really, the only thing you have to replace is the neck.

[GreatWyrmGold]

"AND IT'S GOOD!"

((Clearly, the mind-controllers are trying to mimic our mannerisms! And by "mannerisms," I mean insanity.))

Oh, looks like Feyri is already on her way down! Very quickly.

((Uh oh...))

Follow Feyri. Using the lift, of course. Race her to the ground! WITH THE LIFT!

[Empiricist]

((On an open channel that the Urban Executors and Shadow Walkers will be able to hear.))
Charles takes aim with his turret, he scans the area for hostiles and tracks the threats, but he doesn't fire, not yet at least. ((Activate dynamic.))

[Harry Baldman]

Get a new leg! And get my other bits patched up as well. Shouldn't take too long, right?

If possible, sing-ask for some extra robo-limbs to carry with me. Just in case, you know. For repairs.

Nope, definitely not going to try and attach them all. No way, no how.

[Corsair]

"Where are the enemies coming from steve?"
Ask steve

[Lenglon]

>How should I put this...There's not a lot of space to fuck up here, so if you don't think you can use it without causing a problem, don't use it. Don't think I won't perform summary executions if you prove yourself to be more of a danger to your teammates and our allies then our enemies.

"Okay, can do. Will stick to guns as much as possible. But the question still stands, I guess. I don't know how expendable those... "sods" are, and how desperate their commanders could get, but suicide tactics might still happen. What I'm asking is, if we're on the gangway and we have a ticking megaton bomb with no ready way to disarm it, or an equivalent problem, is it going to be a good idea to toss it overboard, or would it be better to take the slimmest available chance to defuse it anyway, risking detonation right next to, or on, the ship hull?"

Keep asking.

shake my head twice.
"Melt?"
Propose a possible answer to suicide bomb tactics involving using a microwave manipulator or amp to fry the bomb's electronics before it can detonate
((yes, PW gets a free pass on figuring out what Lyra is trying to say, he's busy with other things.))

That could work too. Nuclear bombs are rather easy to break, after all.

((Does anyone with appropriate remote disarming equipment have a line of sight on the bomb?))

[Sean Mirrsen]

((Steve has/had line of sight on it through Teal's headcam. So if it's serious, he will at least alert everyone, and at most dispatch someone to deal with it.

Also, you missed my post, PW.

I kid you not. Rolled a 1, then +1 from the dynamic bonus and then rolled a 3 on that 1/3rd chance, which means you don't get it (I check one third chances by rolling again and if you get 1 or 2, it counts).

You know what? Next turn I'm just gonna give you a 5. On  whatever single roll you use. Gotta balance out some karma here.

((Ahhhahaha oh wow. Three 1's in a row. I think the universe is trying to tell me something. Anton would probably take a hint at this point and try to do something else.

Can I pass on the free 5 and instead use the karma to get some leeway with gadget design at a later point? I had a couple of fairly outrageous ideas... ))

Anton frowns, then sighs and throws up his arms. "Well crap. I've no idea what's wrong here. Jig's up I guess." He scoops the uncooperative drones up and gives them a stern look. "I'll take a proper look at you three when this is over. Don't think you'll get off lightly." He then stuffs them back in the pack and looks out at the battlements using his own two eyeballs. Nothing interesting seems to be happening just yet. Anton is back to square one, facing off against the impending onslaught of boredom.

He decides to query Steve.

"Um, Steve? I don't mean to sound like I'm complaining, but it seems to still be mighty boring around here. Can you relay to us what the other teams are doing? Other ships? How's the revolution holding up so far? And how's my prototype doing, while I'm at it? The one I gave Auron? He kill anyone with it yet?"

Chat with Steve. Maintain as watchful an eye on the gangway's surroundings as the situation permits.

))

Get that last action resolved and continue to maintain a watchful eye. Try not to miss anything interesting or out of the ordinary, like any potential people potentially jumping off of any potentially tall buildings.

[Tack]

((I think the bomb is completely manual. Otherwise the UE would've already detonated it...))

((Also word from the big PW is that having rockets is good, otherwise it's a dex roll to run away to "... Non-fatal ranges", or an aux roll to pilot the ship. So whoever the Aux master is in the away team, please get your ass into that ship...))
