Turn 23.5: 4 hours before the Riot
Wicked seems a bit shaken up from Ichiji's "Interrogation", as all the Evidence is transfered alongside him, however the disks are of interest to Lester and are kept. In the meantime, Ichiji takes the time to return to her room and wait for further orders.
Twilight came back with the haul and went to her room, discovering Kenji with her Diary. As he put it down, he started to feel very very scared at the moment... as Twilight started to flare up...
"HOW DARE YOU READ MY DIARY!"Alicia heard her yelling and tries to intervean before things went from bad to worse, though she doesn't know how bad her temper can get...
"Wait a minute Twilight! Calm down, how would he know if that was your personal thoughts or not!"While Twilight uses swear words and language that not even Kenji understands, he started running (6+1), and under the influence of the Human's Natural Fight or Flight Responce, vaulted over her and Alicia, and started running as Twilight tried to hit him with her magic, though with Alicia's hands over her horn, it caused a temporary laspe in concentration. Kenji made the excuse that he needed to train pilots, and thinks of testing the thing, making a dash for the Hangar while the stuff lasted, and into the modified Exia
Now in the safety of Gundam Exia, he launches it out to test it's stability (5). Due to a mechanical deviation, he doesn't seem to have much faith in it's abilities, in fact he fears something could have gone wrong, but despite the inner fears, seems to be going well, and makes a few observations.
Due to the design of the Revision 1 Spiral Drive, Kenji noticed it took additional Stablizers in order to balance it out without causing it to fall over.
The mechanics in the meantime, start working on the Braves, bringing them up to specificiations. Working quickly and possibly facing a riot, the team started to begin working on GN Drive Taus, Capacitors, and such equipment (6), blazing though them as if they were nothing. The team of Humans, familar with construction started to strike quickly as they make the Braves, as well as outfit them with Riot Gear in case things go wrong.
1375 Mobile Suit Parts, 110 GN Drive Taus, 55 Shields, 55 Beam Shields, 55 Capacitors consumed in the process, will be done quickly, 670 Weapon Parts used with Riot Gear.
Master Gundam in the meantime gets updated to use Shields and Foritifed in case things go nuts (6+2) though the guys somehow found a way to extend the range of the GN Sensors.
2 Mobile Suit Parts consumed in upgrading sensors.
In the meantime, Ichiji is announced the transferrence out of Master Gundam to the Brave Commander-type, while the Pony Captains are transfered out. After the freed slaves Calmed down, three Adult humans, one named Emily, the other Fredrick and a third named Elizabeth, serve as Captains to replace the Pony Captains.
It will take awhile to update the fleet to keep up with the Nahal Argama, but in the meantime, Lester's free to watch the riot unfold, or step in.
With a more calmer Twilight to work with, Alicia can finally get to work on getting in these files, to uncover some of Wicked Spectre's crooked business (Alicia rolls: 5, Twlight rolls: 6), and gets started breaking though the encryption.
The first few disks were finacial stuff, evidence that points him not only to his Corperation backers, but also an implication of an "Order of the Anti-Spiral" group that seems to be bugging Alicia, even though their symbols adorn most of Manehattan's upper streets. Twilight seems to have discovered a few accounts, though she will note Applejack won't approve of Lester stealing from a soon-to-be Dead man, even if he is a criminal. Otherwise, the Transaction reports are all attributed to him. Another Datadisk Alicia noted was a deed to his home, as well as several interested homes in the upper District, which he plans to buy after the Gundam Fight ended (judging by the date). There are 9 Datadisks to go though at the moment.
The research team starts working on boosting the EM Shielding of the City-scale version, based on Alicia's information (3) and noticed the EM hardening process would take additional time to get it up there. They will see though Alicia's information for a bit, until either the ships are ready to leave Manehattan for their next stop (wherever) or they find out more about the EM Hardening process.
The Dronemaker is willing to listen on the backdoor system he installed that the guys didn't know...
"I admit, the Drone AI system has a few backdoors in it, but most can only be done from the side of the ship, not from the Drone's side. You'd have to hack onto the ship before you can consider overloading them." he spoke, as he writes down a code to overload the Drives on every unit he's made the drones out of. "Start with this then work backwards to sneak it on their ship..."
The Programmers took a look at the calculations it'd take to overload the drives on three completely diffrent machines, one of them shook their head as if this wasn't so easy. "I got some bad news, even if we put them over the bare minimum for each unit, it'll damage parts of Los Pegas... unless you get every Gespent mk II up in the air all at once, there is no way you can overload them without damaging the city. We'll work on it all the same but are you willing to accept Collateral Damage?"
Marcus in the meantime takes the Armorlion out for a spin to explore the outskirts of Manehattan for some wild units (4) from the air, while Clair looks around from the Guren mk II (5)
- A Bandit was running for his life from Shield Ligers as his Flag was being hunted down for stealing a few parts.
- Marcus has spotted a traveling Unicorn with her wagon, also haulling an unusual Mobile Suit
- A seemly harmless Cruiser is flying towards Los Pegas for some reason, it doesn't seem to have any other symbols on it, except for the standard Griffin nation symbols, and attemps to hail it simply say "Care Packages for the Elderly", which seems to be strange... why would Griffins send Care Packages to Elderly Ponies?
- Clair noticed a wild Command Wolf and it's pack biting into a Bandit-modified GM II
The meantime, Marcus' team starts working on the machines, starting with the Ground Gundam (4), then the Gespent (5). The teams started to work their machine, getting it up to the EZ-8 and the Gespent mk II respectively.
10x Mobile Suit Parts, 10x Personal Trooper Parts
The Mechanics note at this point, there was no formal Gespent mk III, but two customized units, they may need to think about which way to go. As for the Ez-8, they can, if cleared to, give it Magnetic Coating just in case.
