((what about a reason whre he can get it back ie stealing it?))
I'll roll for it, if you do end up being able to steal it back there are the facts of A) you won't know where it is, B) it'll probably have been stripped for parts for the U.M.'s space fleets, C) be so heavily guarded you'd die trying to get it, D) guarded by some loan shark toughs but a pile of crap that might as well be scrap, or E) a combination of the above.

One: There's no real reason to talk in OOC brackets when there's no ingame speak to speak of.

Two: Spareparts. Besides, from what I've heard of the setting pretty much anything is outdated around here.

It uses Autocannos of all things as PD and basically battleship style cannon turrets. And the reason why the Zeus is weaker is because it was a early version of laser Battery. That make sense?

I like point one :P As for point two, yeah that is spot on.

Autocannons are actually a fairly advanced as the earliest form of PD developed was the Flak Turret, which was followed by the far less successful railgun turrets. Another problem is I'm the one that will assign your gear, and the Zeus's problems are A) the ship doesn't have enough turret mounts to equip it and thus it would have been sold off long ago or the ship modified to carry it and B) almost half as powerful as lower tier Battery Class weapons which is way to weak for something that large, a turret class laser battery is made up of fifteen to twenty high powered laser turrets (A normal mount represents around 5 turrets) and the size you suggested would make it around 40 turrets. That would be the equivalent of a successful true rail-gun shot.

Clearly running multiple missions at the same time is a terrible idea.  The epic battle to see which team can cock it up worse has escalated again.

And Larry kinda gets blueballed in all this; just left with a raging bone spear and no where to put it.

You'd need things to make it, scrap metal and electronics are an example, and the rolls would depend on what you wanted the thing to do, overall the effects of unorthodox mods are completely up to luck for the most most part so they can be rather risky.

Accepted players are: Tiruin, Caellath, Taricus, 10ebbor10, and Tavik Toth

Pending players are:
Unholy_Pariah, your back-story needs to be changed as sonic weapons do not currently exist, sorry.

Scapheap, need to change and flesh out your bio. If you'd have made a universal antidote pretty much everyone would know about, you couldn't hide it and any government would have had an information leak about such a precious thing within hours.

Whichever one of you gets these changes worked out first I'll accept as the sixth player, though if someone else gets a sheet in before then that is completed and good they will get the spot.

You were planning to have a 15 year old magical girl kill Witches by drinking them under the table!? It's original, at least.

Didn't Dwarmin go for the waitlist rather than signing up?
