[Radio Controlled]

Then it would seems Auron bows out of this bidding war. Miyamoto, I'll send the item where you want it the moment I recieve the paymeny of six tokens. We'll work out the details of the knives some other time.

Very well, I'll look into it at as soon as conveniently possible. Are you in any particular hurry to receive those funds?

[Pancaek]

I'm not ina particular hurry, though the synthskin I'm planning on buying might take a while to get installed and fiddle around with. So the sooner the better.

[Gentlefish]

Go to the wreck room.

Let's see who I've got to deal with.

Look around. Who seems to be the craziest crazy here?

[yobbo]

I dunno how to do the Hasala training video thing in game mechanics...but we could always give you training that, with that specific weapon, will make a roll of 1 not as bad as it normally would be.

yeah that'd be awesome... situationally-slightly-less-incompetence-hoooo!

[Nikitian]

((Welcome to the 'Corps Movement! We hope you will enjoy your stay.
Oh, and happy to see another fellow medic on board!))

[solarlight]

(Thanks! I hope so too. Glad to be able to help shave of the medical workload, seems like not many people like being one )

[Xantalos]

((Just you wait until I start experimenting.))

[Beirus]

((It's because most injured people on mission get past the point of needing a medic very quickly. Unless we use "medic" to describe the people who put the heads in the coolers.))

[solarlight]

(Putting heads into coolers does seem very medic-like, they are supposed too keep people alive after all. Making sure the brain doesn't rot fits the bill.)

[Kriellya]

(( Yeah, we've got a fair pile of medics. Just off the top of my head, we have me, Maurice, Mesk, and Faith, all fairly active players.

The problem is that people tend to get... shall we say 'Catastrophically Injured', which makes medics important for preventing perma-deaths, but otherwise very boring. Though I plan on researching some new devices once I get some down time. (I may skip the next Joker mission so I can work on medical tool research )

Either way, welcome! ))

[kj1225]

((I'm a medic as well. And I'm planning on becoming a mobile cover unit.))

[Pancaek]

Sell transporter rifle to Miyamoto for 6 tokens. Also, charge END bonus.

Also also, question. the stealth synthskin: does it only work on the skin itself, or does it project a weak stealth field. Like in ghost in the shell, where it doesn't work when wearing body armour, but it still works on the handgun and lightweight clothing the major is wearing. So: does it also make weapon you're holding and/or lightweight clothing you're wearing invisible?

[piecewise]

N-oh. I didn't consider those could be transferred.
Uh. Can we say Steve reminded him about those and that they're in his locker?

Uh.

Go and pick up the 10 tokens Old!Xan left behind, since neither Xan was one to refuse cash. Then go head to the rec room while charging a Will bonus.

Just to save a bit of time, after that I'm going to try to plug into the VR (I'm standard human for now so it should work hopefully), boot up Duel, put that test dummy thing in as an opponent, and equip myself with a microwave amp.

Alright, consider it all set up then.

Continuing with the ARMISTICE VR training program:

None of the scenarios are hardcoded; instead, the program should draw its repertoire from files in a directory. Mostly so adding and removing scenarios is relatively easy even for people with little computer literacy (like Hasala).

Scenarios:

Spoiler: Weapon Safety and Handling (click to show/hide)

This scenario deals with proper firearm handling. Basic lessons anyone with a gun should know: keep your finger away from the trigger unless you actually want to fire, keep the safety on and the gun unloaded (if applicable) when not in use, pointing the gun at the ground when not aiming at something, never fire from the hip, use bursts when firing automatic weapons and sweeps with lasers, etc. Video.

Spoiler: Firearm Familiarity (click to show/hide)

This is the scenario where all of the standard UWM and ARM guns are explained. Video & Scenario. Video version has Hasala go through the UWM guns, then the ARM guns. Scenario does the same, but VR Hasala will ask for and answer questions between guns.

Spoiler: Firing Range (click to show/hide)

It's a firing range. All of the guns from the Firearm Familiarity scenario are available for practice. Other weapons can be added to the scenario by talking to VR Hasala and/or adding files to the scenario's weapons folder. VR Hasala also specifically tells them to request more appropriate weaponry if they'll be using mostly gunpowder-based weapons, and how to make them the default selection for the scenario.

Spoiler: Tactics I (click to show/hide)

This scenario teaches the users about situational awareness, coordination, and avoiding friendly fire. VR Hasala narrates while a team of Sods go through the proper motions. Video.

Spoiler: Tactics II (click to show/hide)

This scenario teaches the users about cover, and explains the difference between partial cover (which blocks line of sight, but doesn't provide protection against UWM weapons fire) and full cover (which blocks both line of sight and weapons fire). It also explains the necessity of taking a split second to do friend-or-foe recognition, to prevent friendly fire or civilian casualties. VR Hasala narrates while a team of VR ARM troopers go through the motions, including shooting UWM Sods through partial cover and being protected by full cover, while avoiding shooting civilians caught in the middle. Video.

Spoiler: Tactics III (click to show/hide)

This scenario teaches the users about stealth and the benefits of having the first volley, clearing a room with minimal losses, suppression fire, executing ambushes, etc. VR Hasala narrates while Sods go through the proper motions. Video.

Spoiler: Know Thy Enemy (Sods) (click to show/hide)

This is Pancaek's technical video about Sods.

Spoiler: Beating Battlesuits (click to show/hide)

This scenario explains the strengths and weaknesses of a battlesuit and shows a few ways to take them down, including the paint trick, blocking/targeting the joints, opening up the cockpit to get at the pilot, etc. It stresses that battlesuit armor is pretty damn tough, which is why disabling the battlesuit is so much easier than destroying it. It also describes the various built-in systems. Video.

Spoiler: Combat Scenarios (click to show/hide)

These are bunch of VR scenarios that pit the users against UWM forces, composed of non-Sod soldiers, Sods, and battlesuits. There are two types: objective-oriented, and freeform. Objective-oriented scenarios give the users an objective to complete, usually taking over and/or defending a location from UWM forces. The game program gives them a score at the end based on how well they did (accuracy, collateral damage, friendly fire/civilian casualties, deaths, injuries, coordination, tactics, etc.) Have the program track the highest score, to give users a bit of incentive to do well.
Freeform scenarios give no objective, and are similar to Duel matches in that the users are dropped into a semi-random environment and have to fight UWM forces. They might be relatively evenly-matched or hopelessly outnumbered. Both types of combat scenario (objective and freeform) can take place in different environments; including urban, underground, Arctic, forest, grasslands, mountains, jungle, swamp, etc.

Also, reminding you that Steve is technically doing all the programming work, here. Just in case you forgot.

I'll probably add more to the program in the future, but this is it, so far. Save everything, then exit VR.

Alright, stick this on the wiki for reference but it looks fine so far.

Grab the two tokens off Steve with the promise of remaining employed until ive actually punched someone for him.
Grab one token off of execute/dumbo.exe

Buy spiderdroid from thaddeus for 5 tokens.

Charge handiwork.

If thats the original two tokens I was giving you, sure. If thats an extra two for remaining employed, nah.
Player transfers I assume is handled between you two {WIKI}

Charging handi.

"Huh, never had anything this good in the mafia.
Gauss rifle... Nah, my arms are way too noodle like for that, well, until I know what I'm going to be doing, best pick the most versatile option available, the laser rifle."
Like I said, laser rifle.

You buy a laser rifle for 2 tokens.

Greetings fellow inmates/resistance fighters

I would like to request aid in the form of a small 1 token loan so that i might upgrade my arsenal, rest assured i will not be using it for anything overly destructive but instead for something rather versatile and awesome.

Gratitude in advance, Auron.

Sure, already got the bare bones of what I need and I have no idea what to do with the rest of them.

Give that man a token!

{WIKI}
Transfer token.

Name: Omega 911
Age: 2 Years since upgrade, time before is immaterial (20's?)
Gender: Male

Appearance: From a distance, Omega could be mistaken as a handsome bodybuilder. Closer up, you realize his eyes are mechanical, and he has had augments in his arms and legs at the very least in addition to replacing the fingers and feet for more optimal designs.  He wears a stiff jumpsuit with lots of pockets on his torso.

Personal information: Bought mechanical implants to maintain heart/lung/brain systems despite all else.  Disappeared for a year, during which he made a ridiculous number of mechanical upgrades to himself, and perhaps some biological backups as well

Reason assigned to HMRC: Ran over a little old lady because he had somewhere to be that was more important than the uselessness of her remaining existance.  Now determined to prove his superiority over lesser beings by winning all the missions.

"Recruit Omega 911 reporting for mission"  A large, bald man stands at attention.  He manages to display both eagerness and condescension to those around him.

You attempt to show condescension but all you can manage is condensation.

>Missions are already underway. Kill some time until we need some more disposable people. It shouldn't be long.

Ask the Armory master for preferably something like a submachine gun or assault rifle to be inserted into arm.

We could get you just a standard sub machine gun or assault rifle in the arm. You'd probably have to stick the magazine into your forearm or something to use it, but as long as you don't mind doing that, it's cheap and easy.

Go to the wreck room.

Let's see who I've got to deal with.

Look around. Who seems to be the craziest crazy here?

That is a hard choice. Xan's around, I know that for sure. Not sure where Auron is, but he's pretty nuts if loot is involved. Hmm.

I dunno how to do the Hasala training video thing in game mechanics...but we could always give you training that, with that specific weapon, will make a roll of 1 not as bad as it normally would be.

yeah that'd be awesome... situationally-slightly-less-incompetence-hoooo!

If it's even possible for you to roll ones, the chances or reducing their impact are pretty great. So pick your weapon and skip a week, and your training will be done.

Welcome, new meat. You wanna go through this from the pods or do you know what you want to do and just want to get into it? I assume you have a pretty good idea of whats going on, since you read the entire subforum (Jesus M.bison Christ, you mad man.).

Sell transporter rifle to Miyamoto for 6 tokens. Also, charge END bonus.

Also also, question. the stealth synthskin: does it only work on the skin itself, or does it project a weak stealth field.

So: does it also make weapon you're holding and/or lightweight clothing you're wearing invisible?

Done
{WIKI} Move the rifle and the tokens from from Pan to miya and miya to pan, respectively.

The stealth skin is. It wouldn't work with clothing or weapons. It makes your body invisible. Well, except for opened eyes, but you can keep your eyes closed and use it; not like cam eyes can't already see through flesh. Mouth too. Keep that closed.

Go to the armory and get some metal attached to my shield.
