Launch rack of missiles at blast doors. Blow a hole big enough to let me do my flying.

Roll twice, take the highest.
Tsk.


>engage any enemies that I can see.
>Try again without friendly fire this time.
You all rush out of the bridge to fight the terrible insects, leaving the bridge unstaffed... You manage to keep the repair units from being swarmed by insects. The massive surges from the generators inexplicably firing up however catch many of those present. One of your number spend several seconds being electrocuted before collapsing into a pile of their component parts. This does at least seem to have dealt with the insects.

There is a sudden jolt as the ship accelerates to long-distance travel. One would assume that are no consequences from this...

Enemy Infiltrators: Inexplicably Exist

Four letters actually. cnv
There were already some terrible insects, so it wasn't really necessary.


Launch rack of missiles at blast doors. Blow a hole big enough to let me do my flying.
With no authorised targets and no armaments on the small landing craft you resort to throwing the missile to practice your omnicidal functions. It lands to a loud beep then rolls to the nearest door with a potent explosion. After reprimanding yourself for causing damage to your master's property, you look out the hole and realise that the ship is in long-distance travel, and leaving would severely retard your opportunities for further acts of violence.

The (probably) N.P.C. captain is now alone on the bridge to plan out an attack on the presumed enemy's heavily fortified capital. The ship is slowly being repaired, although their motivators may be bad... The hangar is damaged, someone will probably get to that eventually. One of the two generators is really unwell, but it hasn't exploded yet. Oh, and the ship is hurtling along at unfathomable speeds towards a fate that probably has a great deal in common with death...

Rig missile to landing craft. Then rig the autopilot to fly out the hole, around the ship, and kamkaze into the bridge.

Distribute rolls according to whim.
Stuff...


>Leave the lightning arena and patrol the ship
You scour the ship high and low looking for any sign of traitors or enemy activity. Kicking sleepers into activity just long enough to be questioned, disconnecting power-suppliers to check them for defects, halting conveyors to inspect the repair supplies they are carrying, you leave quite a wake of chaos in your path, but all you find are a couple of service or utility units whose actions do not seem to conform to their assigned duties, and one of the elite assassin units wandering around the hangar that seems to be stuck in demolition mode and could cause damage to your master's property if not reassigned.

You run through all the options available to you from this terminal. Doors open and close, lights wane and wax, various inventories and status reports are referenced. The vital systems of the ship seem to be difficult to access, and there is very little that you could do to invoke changes that could not be easily revoked, but you seem capable of observing most of the ship and should have minor control over much of it.
 It does seem odd that you could trigger the acceleration, it was probably a rarely triggered defect in the system...

You find a peculiarly inappropriate lack of autopilot in this setting, but there is enough to keep the ship on course despite the various inhibiting factors.


Rig missile to landing craft. Then rig the autopilot to fly out the hole, around the ship, and kamkaze into the bridge.
You think intently about what you would do if this were an enemy vessel. You then muse that landing craft generally lack the autonomy to do something like that.

The captain orders a census. Various utility units wake up and start probing people, commencing with the sleepers.

Something about glowy-thingies.


>Stop that elite assassin unit
You commandeer some reinforcements and order the assassin to cease demolitions. It stops. It is now seeking superior weaponry. You accompany it and acquire a weapon with superior rate-of-fire.

There are no biscuits on the ship, this outrage will not stand! You chase after the berserk infantry and demand that they assist your biscuit-production efforts. They reply by shooting at you.


Escorts: 2 infantry(berserk- shooting at you), 4 cannon fodder(1experimenting- shooting at the wall, 2passive- probably comatose, 1looking- right behind you).

That function has been transferred to a unit that was accessing the system at the time. Additionally, the automated control systems have been disengaged.

Sigh, then go off to the armory to find me a weapon.
You locate a heat-lance, a hover-bike(Riding it in a cramped ship is not easy...), 2 bombs, and a heavy anti-personnel ranged-weapon.
