((Yeah, it probably would have gone off while I was in a coma. Still, I'd rather remind you of it now instead of trying to use it on mission and then realizing I have no charges and that it now wants me to mutilate and eat somebody for ignoring it for so long.))
To the Med Bay.
"Hey Doc, do you have a saw I could borrow? The Shackle want me to amputate a limb from somebody, but I figured I'd cut one of my legs of and maybe we could reattach it after. Unless you know somebody with superhuman regeneration that wouldn't mind letting me cut something off of them. Or maybe we could get one of the crew members over here. You think Steve would mind?"
The doctor seems rather busy at the moment, but he looks up just long enough to point at mesk and say "Use him. He regenerates."
"Oh. Hm. Who is Milno?" the Chief asks. She didn't really know what most of this talk about generators or political autonomy was, or even what the UWM is. But that at least seemed like a question that would get a self-contained answer.
Potentially watch Armory Master fawn in her own way as she answers question.
Also, buy stun baton for 1 token. That'll come in handy for sure.
And a carton of bluesmokes, if it's free. And a lighter or matches as well, if those are also free.
"He's another soldier like yourself, but he's out on a mission right now. Talk to him when he gets back, which should be soon, hopefully."
Stun baton buytoned
Blue smokes blue bought. They don't need a lighter or matches though, they have self igniting tips.
Leave my nonexistent weapons in a locker, including the suit if needed, and join up with Maurice.
Han goes and joins up with the rest.
Lead the steadily growing 'Corps embassy to Civilian Crew to the maintenance door. Await the escort.
My, the idea of a visit seems to have attracted more people than I expected. Oh well.
Maurice pet the catgirl behind the ear a little more.
Don't worry. They won't find you threatening, Lyra.

"mrow!"
I yawn
sticking with Maurice
A few minutes later the maintenance door opens and a man dressed in green coveralls and holding a laser rifle steps out.
"Alright, who is going and where do you want to go?" he asks, looking over the small, assembled group of people.
"Oh. I see. That's all I wanted to know bye-"
Back out the door quickly.
You take two slow backward steps and then run screaming from the room. You hide under the couch in the Rec room.
Realize that he was talking to himself and then head to the Rec Room.
You head to the rec room. It's pretty busy right now, between the guys watching the tv, the ones on the VR, the ones hanging around with some guy over in the corner, the guy under the couch. Regular party central.
"Hey, is anyone here any good at fiddling with weapons and crap? Better than just gaffer taping parts onto 'em? I'm gonna chuck a generator on this laser rifle if I can. Anyone wanna help? I'll get the parts we need, you do the mucking around. Might be something in it for you if you don't fuck it up."
Turn off kinetic amp since everything is "normal". Gesture to laser rifle. Also, go over to a table, unload civilian gauss sniper rifle and check how many rounds can fit in it.
((got the rifle in mission 8d, never checked it's ammo capacity. There's a 2/?? ammo count and it's been bothering me))
It appears that it could hold 7 or 8 rounds; hard to tell without actually reloading it, but thats your closest guess.
Jim will keep watching them with his cameyes and take the opportunity to rest and regain some mind points.
You can almost see the gears turning in the computer's head as the men vibrate back and forth. Suddenly the cluster together and all charge down the alleyway.
Check what kinds of resources would be most likely to justify a colonization attempt.

Depends on the area. Outer rim colonies need basically anything that is rare for them; minerals, usable exomaterials, etc. You might have them mining gold, if they have a use for it. Generally though it's for rare materials which aren't found elsewhere, often organically derived things. That AP mission where you grabbed various bits and bobs? Imagine that, but with a followup mission that strip mined the AP for anything that was determined to have value.
