((What do you think the chances of mass-producing organics like Xan or...Mesk is the guy who regenerates, right? on a large scale?))

[renegadelobster]

((Just because I don't think they would see it coming, what if you modified some of the sods to be like Cog, the human spaceship mutant. Leave some alot of them up there, give'em some nasty weapons and watch the UWM go WTF. Just a thought))

((Easier to just make mines (and I'm not referring to mines like you would think. I mean what are essentially long-term missile buses with scanners on them that you could put in orbit and let them be. If a ship approaches, it launches the warheads at it).

And the only reason I didn't suggest stuff like that is because we're going to try and capture as many ships as possible, so simply wrecking them is counterproductive.))

[renegadelobster]

((Well yeah thats easier. And smarter. But we're the HMRC ARM, so wanton destruction is expected. Although enough of that might happen on the ground anyways.))

[Unholy_Pariah]

((What if we used biological missiles targetted at their environmental systems?))

[Xantalos]

((Or just launch clones of me at them.))

((The only ones we would be able to affect without severely damaging the ships would be the radiators, and that's if the UWM ships were fool enough to expose them. The final result of which would perhaps sound rather like this, if there were an atmosphere to conduct the sound. If we used something that could actually destroy the radiators, we than have the issue of the ship's power plant and/or drive melting down.))

((I was thinking more along the lines of living organisms, think necromorphs that spread their shit via airborne spores.
You get them in the ship and they go straight for the ventilation systems and half the ships infested before they can do anything to stop it.))

[Xantalos]

((*points to self* Ahem.))

((And that would be more effective than a boarding party how, other than the fact that it would be uncontrolled and indiscriminate for when we do try to take the ship over? We're trying to get usable resources here, not infested hulks that we can't clean out without pulling a ship of Theseus and melting down all of the infested parts.

((*points to self* Ahem.))

I am considering Xan to be a unique entity for this. We're not going to launch clones of you at them, though we might launch you at them, along with other members of a boarding party.))

[Xantalos]

((All right then. Just thought I should mention it since PW said that the Xanling I created could've lead to a 'THEY'RE COMING OUT OF THE WALLS, MAN' scenario, so why not use that offesnively?))

[Kriellya]

(( Because we don't want to turn a UWM ship into an Altered ship, we want to turn it into an ARM ship. That, and I don't want to have to decontaminate every ship we throw pieces of you at. So much work... ))

[Xantalos]

((It'd need a will decomp on my part to work correctly so I could give an appropriate 'sacrifice yourselves to me when done killing everyone on the ship' switch thing.))

[Sean Mirrsen]

((I am suddenly reminded of Homeworld: Cataclysm. God forbid any of the Xanling boarding pods miss their target and drift off into space...))

[Xantalos]

((And Halo Legends where the Flood was eating Forerunner ships.))
