HEY! MIYA! REQUEST HERE!
I KNOW, I TOOK CARE OF IT!
ALSO I FORGOT TO POST AN ACTION LIKE A SCRUB, DAMMIT.
Oh, well the readout looks sort of like a heart monitor or an eeg. It's got three colored lines which are scrolling forward across a moving grid background, with some numbers labeled along the left side. One of the lines, a red one, is sitting still at 0, while the other two, green and blue, are synced up and are wavering slightly, between 5 and -5.
So green and blue are at the same position, or is it that when one moves, the other does as well, but with some room between them?
As a test, use dirt from Hep I took with me (and that's in the hangar) to produce some namite. Do it slowly, create only a little at first. How do the lines change?
Also, ask Steve what kind of tools would be most convenient (for the average trooper, not Miya) to dig/cut and find those nerves with.
Can people do that? Sell to the team fund? If they can, [wiki]
Yes, but for the same price as if they sold back to the AM. Keeps items in the player economy easier, and team fund can always sell back to the AM itself at no loss.
The green and blue lines move in sync.
Your test creates more namite then you wanted, but is successful. The blue and green lines begin deflecting up and down more radically, between 10 and negative 10. They stay this way for a while.
>Sharp things. Knives, axes, those sort of things. NooooOOOoooOOO SPIT HIM OUT OH NOES
You spit him out.
Remember how when I fire the more powerful modes of the rainbow cannon like blue lightning or red plasma I drain the suit's reserves and have to wait for it to restart? I want something like a secondary battery or capacitor or generator that would let me walk around after firing the red plasma or let me fire blue lightning while retaining mobility for about a minute.
Just walk around? No secondary firing or anything fancy? Because that would be cheap and relatively small.
Well, ideally I want it to also be able to boost the Rainbow Cannon's available power to allow me to fire a second shot (or a super-powered ultimate-attack-style shot, depending on circumstances) and allow me to recharge my industrial mining laser's battery in its spare time. But if I can't get that at a reasonable price I'd prefer just being able to move around after firing.
Also, since I now have some more money (thanks PW), would getting an ARSC help the team in any way or would it do more harm than good?
Would it let us get around faster?
Could they be protected by it and fire through port holes or use their amps through cameras or something?
Is it airtight enough to allow medicine to be practised on board?
Does it have any weapons of its own?
Can it land?
Can it be returned to the sword at mission end or am I looking at a one time deal?
Just looking for ways to protect our squishy newbs. Plus, two battlesuits circling around what I assume to be an armoured flying saucer would be fun.
You could buy it, but it would be large and expensive.
It might help. I dunno.
Well yes, flying around in a rocket powered bunker would be pretty quick compared to walking
They'd be protected, but you couldn't fire out without some modifications.
Yes
Does slamming through shit at high speed count?
Yes.
It depends. Depends on how fast they need to leave and how many pieces they're leaving in.

With sudden influx of tokens buy Pimp Cane, bottle of painkillers, bottle of coagulant boosters and exo battle stim. Already in [WIKI].
Go into hangar and try out simple exercise with Pimp Cane. Use most of it to form a thin circular platform hovering few centimeters above floor. Step on it, and command it to move straight forward two meters at walking speed. Personal hovercraft!
((Gotta pimp shit out of overgrown crotch fungus.))

You manage to create the platform, but manage to do nothing with it but smash it into your own shins and sweep your legs out from under yourself. You land face first on the floor as your platform rolls off like an angry manhole cover.
((And that is at +3 Willpower while not in a stressful situation, though I suspect doing things quickly had to do with it. I think giving up on actively using the sharkmist suddenly looks more reasonable than ever due to the risks a roll of [1] poses in the field. And which action failed, the consumption or creation of the whip?))
Milno doesn't even flinch when his fingers explode like an overripe melon hit by a sledgehammer, though he does frown before getting to recover the pieces of xeno symbiote all over the immediate area. "Fuckin' aliens."
Recover all the lumps of sharkmist and absorb them back, wearing the MkIII if necessary to get to the bits in hard-to-reach places. Get my fingers to the way they were before (eating food as necessary).
Then get out of the MkIII (locker the suit so it isn't at risk in case of another explosion) and try once again, with the whip-creation part being done slowly and with a bunch of food handy to fuel the process.
Touch Empyrea's club and have the sharkmist quickly consume a bit of it to see the consumption speed.
Then go to an airlock and try to create a long (4 feet), thin (thinner than a pencil) and rigid sharkmist tendril coming from Milno's open palm, slowly thickening the tendril and making it more flexible until it looks like a whip.
Whatever the result may be, fix the mess caused and then head to the Armory to check whether there are many people around.
You get the sharkmist back inside you, heal up your fingers, and then create a whip of the stuff, or at least use the stuff to create the whip. The whip itself is actually more akin to a bullwhip made of woven diamond fibers.
Are there many people in the armory? I don't think so.
"ALL RIGHT CHUCKLES, STOP PANICKING AND LISTEN CLOSELY. I'M GOING TO GIVE YOU EXACTLY TEN SECONDS TO UNFUCK YOURSELF BEFORE I SPACE MAGIC MY WAY OUT OF HERE. I'VE GOT PLACES TO BE, MARINE. YOU BETTER BITE DOWN ON YOUR IMAGINARY PILLOW, BECAUSE IF I HAVE TO GET MYSELF OUT OF THIS I WON'T BE GENTLE."
count to 10. If by then the giant mouth hasn't stopped chewing me up, use universal amp to form a force bubble around me, expand until it no longer chews me and just throw it away from me.
The giant mouth spits you out almost immediately.
"So what are my responsibilities on this mission?
check exoskeleton boots for electromagnets, if none are found requisition some from the armory master after my duties are explained.
You're getting some for the mission.
"I fucking hate fleshhorrors."
Run back to the rec room and strength roll Taddok off of Pancaek. Then punch him until he is a normal human again.
You start punching the giant mouth but considering the majority of it's body mass is an unyielding wall of teeth, this does little more then hurt your hands.
Brother Lars nodded. "As you wish, Brother. O Algis, may you protect these two... men as they struggle with their problems..."
Pray for the safety of these two fools.
They're gonna need a lot more then prayer.
Wandering around the ship, Maurice heard the mass excitement ahead, with all the various people talking and Pancaek's uncharacteristically booming voice. Chuckling to self in amusement, yet respecting the privacy of the event, he took the turn at the nearest corner, without coming any nearer.
Just so you know, I can safely cut you out of the thing, probably without much damage to the possessed teammate. I know and respect your ability to take care of yourself, and won't trouble you; just mentioning in case you want a clean and discreet option on the table.

Browse the Nyars wares again! I still have three tokens to blow through!
He should've renewed his stock already, right? No day like a busy market day!
((Does anyone object to me prompting Nyars wares reset?))
They're still the same for the moment. Until someone buys the last one or some more time passes.
Head out to the Hangar.
"General Sir Robot Titanic Overlord Sir Miyamoto Sir Sir! I would like to requisition what is listed on the manifest as a 'Mind Fuck Gun'! I wish to verify the effects and potential use in the field and therefore pledge to write an appropiate post-combat report SIR!
Wrangle with Avatar of Miyamoto from vantage point gently bouncing on stilts.
I can only imagine you carrying on a conversation with Miya, only talking at the top of each bounce, as though two people are having a conversation with one of them on a second floor balcony and the other on a trampoline.
Billy wanders around the ship looking for things to do. finding a crazy man wanting to play ping pong sounds "fun" he Billy introduces himself "Hi im Billy friends call me mayes or at least they would if i knew anyone on this ship." play ping pong with Zayne.
Billy wanders around the ship looking for things to do. finding a crazy man wanting to play ping pong sounds "fun" he Billy introduces himself "Hi im Billy friends call me mayes or at least they would if i knew anyone on this ship." play ping pong with Zayne.
"Nice to meet you Mayes, I'm Zayne." He held out his hand to shake, after receiving or not receiving a handshake, He attempts to ping pong.
Oh god. You both rolled 1.
So both Billy and Zayne line themselves up at the ping pong table, take a ready stance with their paddles, and prepare to play. Billy, whose serve it is, manages to languidly knock the ball over the net, though just barely. Zayne attempts to return the ball, but gravely misjudges the distances and ends up slamming his forearm into the table, snapping his forearm like a twig. He screams, as you would expect, and tries to double over in pain, only to slam his head into the table, breaking his nose and knocking out his two front teeth. He then jerks backwards, loses his balance and falls over backwards, cracking his head on the ground and knocking himself out. Billy, who sees all this happen within the span of about 2 slap stick packed seconds, tries to run over and help, but slips, catches himself groin first on the edge of the pingpong table and collapses in screaming agony.
Assuming I have six credits now, head to the armory and purchase a microwave field manipulator. Ask the AM for the biggest 3-token brain in stock. Request details on said brain's life history prior to purchase.
Well you can get the manip, but brains don't vary much in size and we don't know their prior history.
"I, uh, wow. Thank you boss. I won't."
Take Milno's Fancy Shield, the ((IC)) knowledge of the MkIIIs secret features and all of Milno's automatic systems for the MkIII. Stop by the AM and get some connector cables, enough for six different suits, and some duct tape.
Then, go to the infirmary, grab one of the buttons from AMIABLE AMBER, and ask the doctors there if they know what they might be. As long as it's not bad, jam one into my arm. Ask the doctors there to make sure I don't die. Please. And to see if I look/sound, or do anything differently. Dear god I hope this doesn't kill me.
[wiki]
As per amiable amber, the doctors don't know what it is, but they say it looks like a drug administration system.
Still wanna go for it?
Sigh, understand that no one is coming, and go to armory.
"Ahem...Hello. I would like to ask, can I... I mean, can you modify Gungnir kit to be used with Спектр, like... for additional cost maybe, messer Armory Master?"
((I'm asking if can pay AM to make Gungnir with Spektr instead of laser rifle))
Does that change the price?
[wiki] regardless.
There's nothing to [wiki]. That was just a question if Spectr can be used instead of laser rifle to make Gungnir. Pricewise [wiki] believes that cost increases only if person in question doesn't have a laser weapon of his own.
Well that conversion just turns the thing into an electrolaser via sticking a spark gap at the end right? Well, ask Sean if that would even work. He made both of them if memory serves. If it would work, they yes, we'll do that.
Head to the hangar to check out my locker. Gaze in wonder at all of the weird shit going on.
Is there weird shit going on in there?
