...

"Yeah, yeah. The circus was set up even before you messed up. Using that creepy computer of yours offensively shouldn't even have been needed weren't for those mistakes of the field group. Now, go get your brain and the stuff you got from that computer checked. The research people can help with that, just don't get yourself killed any time soon, right?"

"And don't try to make any more of those machines." he says before leaving for the barracks to take a shower.

[renegadelobster]

((Yeah, briefing is over))

"Alright, that's it for now. Let's get out of the ground teams way. I'll issue equipment before we leave."

Team fund stuff:
-1 Spektr (5)
-1 goop thrower (3)
-3 goop reloads and one namite (4)
-1 laptop plus cables/connectors  (1)
-1 Exosuit plus battlesuit plate on chest and helmet for Yancy (5+4)
-Battlesuit plate for chest and helmet for Thaddeus' MkIII  (4)
-1 Monorazor machete  (Borrowing from the armory per PW)

Personal stuff:
Go to the armory and trade in the unused MkII suit (+5 tokens), the unused laser rifle (+2 tokens) and with the other five tokens in my inventory (5), buy a MKIII. After that, go and watch some TV.

[Dorsidwarf]

Gallivant around the hangar like an antelope in a fat spacesuit with my sprung stilts for a bit. Then go to the briefing and try not to smash head on roof.

[Nunzillor]

Go to briefing room, escorted by mummies.

[Doomblade187]

Briefing room go! Lest my kneecaps be Nyars'd.

[Nikitian]

Nodding to Lyra, Maurice left for the brief visit to the briefing room, and then went to the airlock once again.
Open the ROMANTIC BEGGAR case. Inspect the contents.

I have reviewed the briefing data of the missions, and I believe there is no need of my assistance with boarding mission; thus I focused on the ground one. I have sent the prototype data to Hephaestus requesting shipment for field-testing on this mission. This includes three Mk-II replacement suits and, more importantly, two cans of fleshknitter - one per team. I do hope they can be manufactured in time for the next shipment.
I believe there are at least two medics overall on the list - Kyle Johnson and Ryan Jorgensen; as such, it appears prudent to have them assigned to different squads. They may be no professional field surgeons, but they both appear quite experienced, and I hope that might be just enough; in a pinch, there also are a number of people without dangerous misconceptions about first aid and medicine in general, but they probably should be called upon only in case of emergency.
From what I have gathered, the raid is planned to be very quick, and fast on the move, so there should be no need for cryo-equipment for preserving the brains; it also means no time nor place for complex medical help, so it seems most wise to have each of the team medics have a single Emergency Kit and a can of medifoam; a can of fleshknitter, due to ease and quickness of use would also be of help, if the Hephaestus approves its inclusion in the shipment.

Furthermore, given the delicate nature of the ground mission, I believe I have something that could be of certain help. I am speaking of the Dissector knife held in my possession, one which tries to turn the user into butchering maniac, yet can part probably any organic tissue without drawing blood or causing any pain. Now, it is a dangerous yet very valuable tool, requiring a determined hand to use, but if you wish, I could leave it to your custody, General. You would not let it be lost, destroyed, nor fall into wrong, woefully unprepared hands, I believe.

ADD:
Does the cursed knife have to be directly in hand to work? Can it be used when suited? When holding it with a robotic hand?

Also, ask Steve.
Steve, I've been working on the mission preparation for General Miyamoto, and I need to ask you a few questions.

First, how would Haebi detect our troops presence on the planet? I know they will probably have to cut the "ground" to see and track the nerves to the brain cluster, but would that cutting be of any importance to unmasking our presence, or would the Haebi already be after them regardless of what they do to the planet while searching for the brain?

Second, is cutting necessary, or could it be circumvented - by simple observation, perhaps, or otherwise? Is there any difference to which tools to use to cut the ground - between melee weapons, lasers, and so on? Is it better to cut it cold, cauterise, or what?

Third, supposing the "cutting cold" variant, is cutting the Haebi "ground" flesh to look for the nerves a work for a Medical specialist, or Unconventional weaponry one?

Fourth, in your opinion, is it of any significant use to send the Dissector artifact knife with one of the teams instead of whatever other cutting implements, or it wouldn't make much difference?

after watching Maurice go on his way, I wander about the ship, looking for Flint.

"Well shit, time to go and try to cheat death once again"
Buy some ammo for my Laser Rifle and get ready?

((Questions, please answer in the OOC thread.  Posting here because newbies often don't check it.

What brought ER to your attention?  Just the fact that the subforum existed, or something else?
What's so notable about it that you decided to create an account just for ER?
What does the line 'Family of 12 all twins' mean?  Does that mean there were five sets of twins, with parents?  Were the parents twins?  Is Billy itself actually twelve baby twins in a humansuit?  Is their cumulative age 27?
Do you need any explanation of what happens at the start, or are you already aware?

Welcome to Einsteinian Roulette!  Try not to die when we drop you on a hostile planet!))

after watching Maurice go on his way, I wander about the ship, looking for Flint.

Flint is in one of the corners the rec room, sitting with his back resting on one of Gilgamesh's legs facing said corner, the battlesuit providing him with some privacy and some shade from the overhead lights.

One of his arms is wrapped around his leg, holding the metal and synthetic muscle close to his ankle, while the other is resting on the ground, keeping a cup steady. Inside it there is some sort of amber liquid the rec room food dispenser gave him instead of water.

He is currently has his head down and his eyes closed, glad that the rec room is mostly empty with everyone in the briefing room and thus quiet. His hair and facial hair are slightly wet.

The pieces that make up his MK2 lie on the ground close by, the chest part of it smelling of the nose-stinging smell of HMRC standard. Trying to use the battlesuit's hand to bring the bottle of drink to his mouth seemed like a good idea at the time...

[Yoink]

Jobasio, seated in the best chair he could find, glances about the briefing room and the people gathered there.
He notes the fresh-faced, inexperienced looks worn by most of them, and he clicks his tongue uncertainly.
He pats the bright blue gauss rifle lying across his knees and murmurs under his breath, "I certainly don't envy those leading these missions, hmm?
Good thing we aren't them."

Then he looks up and says, rather more loudly and cheerfully, "Well, good luck on your little adventures, my friends!"
He smiles. "I'm sure you'll have those nasty death-plants thoroughly pruned and weeded in no time, eh? You'll be successful and back on ship faster than you can say 'oh gods it's got my legs help me'. See you soon!"

With a cheery wave and a nod of acknowledgement to those he recognizes- such as Vincent, Jason and Michael- he strolls back out of the briefing room, letting out a sigh of relief as he leaves its atmosphere of impending doom. He heads for the Armoury, ensuring his rifle hangs securely from his shoulder.

>Head to the Armoury. Greet the General if he's there.
Wait politely for a chance to ask the AM for an "eyepatch... something rather adventurous-looking, if possible. Perhaps with a antiquated nautical theme, like something from those gauche novelty fast-food restaurants that were pop up all over known space back in the day?"

[Pancaek]

Pan, getting somewhat restless, decides to take a walk. He ends up in th rec room, and tippy toes over to flint. without deactivating his stealthskin, he speaks.

"shouldn't you get ready for deployment instead of drinking that swill, trooper?

"I am 'getting ready for deployment'. It's called sobering up." Flint said without looking up.

[Pancaek]

"it is my duty to uphold troop morale. Why are you in the sorry state you're in, old man?"
