(("Hey, Miyamoto, can you determine how many licks it takes to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop?"))

[Grunhill]

Start watching the previous missions. See what I can learn from them.

[Unholy_Pariah]

practice performing autopsies in a vr machine.

[Radio Controlled]

((What would you do if I said I was trying to become the ER-verse Tau?))

((I'd be... Ok with that. Tau are tolerable. As long as they don't start harping about the Greater Good of course. If they do, to the warp with them!))

(What are you trying to get, Radio? I apparently still have three tokens to my name and if that's all you need I can loan you them.)

((Thanks, but I'll check first how many I'll actually need. Might only need 1 or 2 once I sell the microwave manip.))

((He wants a decomp. Which, basically once he gets it will just ruin the point of tokens, depending on the price of carbon-14. I'd like to see him up against program-Alexei then...))

((Why would that ruin the point of tokens?))

(("Hey, Miyamoto, I need a box of gauss rounds, can you make one?"
"Hey Miyamoto, I need a twenty-pound sphere of enriched uranium, can you make one?"
"Hey Miyamoto, I need a five-meter-long katana made of pattern-welded tungsten/titanium alloy, can you make one?"
"Hey Miyamoto, I need a set of Sailor Moon style battleship plate armor for my Avatar of War, can you make one?"

The possibilities are endless.
Well, almost. Limited by Miyamoto's knowledge of technology and willpower pool. So functionally endless.))

(("Shut up, I'm making action figures of Gilgamesh and myself to play with, leave me alone."

Anyways, before we start dreaming let's first check how far Miya's matter conversion/manipulation go. I'll do some testing once I have the decomp to get an idea what we can do with this. Maybe he can only reform matter in a uniform way, or maybe complex machines made out of multiple components aren't possible. And even if they are, I'm sure we can come up with a way to keep things balanced, like limits on how many times I can create stuff between missions, or for how many tokens worth. Creating or manipulating life is also out of the question, bar maybe very simple/basic things. We'll see.))

(("Hey, Miyamoto, can you determine how many licks it takes to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop?"))

*Melts the tootsie Pop*

"One."

[Xantalos]

((Technically I could get myself a matter convertr amp if I somehow accrued 16 tokens right now.))

[Sean Mirrsen]

Wait a little, see if any new briefing information is forthcoming.

If not, get the drones from Miya, leave for the Rec Room and get into Tinker.

Summon a copy of one of the mapping drones I have, and a standard Scout Eye. Examine both thoroughly.

Are the designs related, internally? Is one based off the other or are they entirely different? Which, if so, is a more "advanced" design, in terms of flight time, maneuvering, comms range, and other capabilities? Which uses more advanced tech?

Summon a drone rack, and compare the same parameters of an individual "softball" drone to the scout eye and mapping drone.

Basically, determine which drone would be best used as the basis for a maneuverable "sensor swarm" around a user, as per the previously outlined "army drone" concept.

[GreatWyrmGold]

((I'd be... Ok with that. Tau are tolerable. As long as they don't start harping about the Greater Good of course. If they do, to the warp with them!))

((Crusty jugglers...))

((Technically I could get myself a matter convertr amp if I somehow accrued 16 tokens right now.))

((Let's start a collection...to keep this from happening.))

[SeriousConcentrate]

(Miya also wouldn't be able to make and install amps, cameyes, synthflesh body parts, and manipulators either, most likely. Anyway, just ask Jim for however much you need when you get it figured, Radio. ^^^)

[Caellath]

((Funnily enough, W40k's Eldar are probably the only kind of elf I can actually like, though I still prefer the Imperium by a large margin.

To put it in perspective, in several settings elves are despicable because they are too perfect, arrogant and xenophobic. Almost everyone in W40k is xenophobic, arrogant and insufferable. In an universe where everyone is a dick, being a dick is hardly a problem.))

((Yep, Imperium all the way. The thing with the 'screw you Eldar' stems from my days of playing Dawn of War with a friend, where Eldar were some of the most irritating enemies, with their teleporting all the damn time. They still died in droves to Leman Russ to the face though. God I love that game.

What's funny about the Tau is that they started as the seemingly 'unambiguously good guys' until the 40K setting caught up with them and they were implied to forcefully sterilize the populace of conquered planets and employing brainwashing to pacify their own people.
Grimdark ensued.

"HAHA! MY OBSESSION WITH CENTERS HAS RUBBED OFF ON MY QUANTUM PROTEGE!"

((GW: What's this? A newly introduced race with a lack of grimderp and actually somewhat different and interesting lore? A large influx of GRIIIMMDDEEEEERP OUGHTA put a stop to that!

In other words that video should become HMRC standard protocol.))

[Toaster]

((Grimderp is an awesome word.))

Head to AM, get a price quote on turning in the MkIII.

Head to VR, spawn a Heavy Laser Battlesuit, and examine its systems.  Test out the heavy laser it comes with on various targets, including a MkIII, Battlesuit, and AoW.  See how it compares to the Cutting Laser in terms of power.

[Xantalos]

Go get that mannequin from the AM if I haven't. Also get a price check for what I'd get for turning in my MKII.

[Toaster]

((Just ask for a *really* stretchy MkII with a large intake port.))
