they use true telepathy, you were told you had that potential, so use it, initiate psychic training.
they value human life, hostage situations might work, or enough hostages might be used as bargaining chips.

I believe that it was stated that they possess true telepathy, but that it is rare. Also, our electronic telepathy is generated by technology that was reverse engineered, poorly, from vanguard technology.

This is not Warhammer 40K. The Morey will just see us as asset or weapon.

Okay maybe that was exaggerated but questions and fear will come. Trust in me if someone like the presidentees gets wind of it she'll use it to fear monger to get us executed.

((True telepathy in humans is very, very rare however it is something all humans can be capable of after some technological....coercing, but even then it is very hard to do and it remains rare. The Vanguard ASOG Warbreed have had it forcefully awakened in them. They can and do still communicate by speaking - they have to, few other Vanguard people have telepathy - however they do use telepathy between each other on the battlefield, and it is not mechanical telepathy.

I'm gonna give you a little piece of information, just to take into account when thinking up plans:

The ASOG Warbreed aren't the only super soldiers the Vanguard possess.

Another piece of information, relating to the use of 'grey goo' nanites and also transhumanist-type technology:

The Vanguard are humanists, as strange as that may sound.

They only really use cybernetics/bionics when someone loses a limb, and that is extremely rare. Their nano-augmented bodies are far superior to anything cybernetic or bionic. They also like to stick to their roots as biological beings. They dont see any advantage to being 'transhuman'.

They also have morals. They do, sometimes, use nanite-type weapons, but it is rare. And remember, they are looking for something on this planet. A nanite weapon may destroy what they are looking for....))

EDIT: ((Update sometime later today))

EDIT2: ((The only white haired vat-born are Pandora, Ari, Elianna and Ankara. All the others have a mixture of normal human hair colours. Its to do with the type of loyalty probes put in you and various other modifications that had a side effect of changing your hair colour))

we have at least some ability, remember
As for the path you are to travel, wait and see. Your physical and mental conditioning is almost complete. The sheer fact you can perform any psychic feats at all, understand me and stay so calm in unfamiliar territory is testament to that

Who is saying this? Carp were a special forces military commander who happens to have psychic abilities and is a hybrid of humanity and Morey/super soldier vision. We are NOT a mad prophet and were not going to preach that. We give orders and our character has said she's not one for speeches.

Ah, so the only reason they're not doing this is they are luddite idiots. Better than I dared hope for.

We should go ahead with the grey goo plan, and by that I don't mean *deploying* it as a *weapon*, I mean BECOMING it, a copy of our mind in every few liters of goo controlling it. The entire planet, our body.

Yes, but the grey goo already has a mind, many of them, in fact, and getting enough of the concerned parties to agree is likely to be difficult...

3man75, Alashar said that, look around page 14, I just couldn't get our quote system to work, we can use psionics, so let us see if you can't shoot them, choke them with the force or some other blast of mystic doom
