Moopli, Don't worry, nyartifacts aren't generally immediately dangerous, and I was just letting the other CSU guys have a look and getting into an argument for RP reasons. No need to hold the mission up, there are no actions I'm actually gonna do yet, at this moment.

"Not immediately dangerous". You mean, like that body-merge pill?

[NJW2000]

That survived an entire mission before someone used it and a few people died.

Except Nik who uses italics for speech. Now that's confusing.
[i]italics[/i]. There's a button for various formats above the textbox.


Where do I put bets for number of permadeaths on M24?

Hey, I use italics for thoughts as well!
And then, back in the day when I started this character, Bishop the Zako's character was the proud owner of brown voice-color, and it wasn't yet that common for people to share accents. I had to be creative for Maurice's voice to stand out enough.


About bets - how about "1-2 permadead; 1 under alien mind control, MIA"?  M21 upscaled to 15-man roster, basically.

Thats what happened to the other kid right they became some sort of abomination and had to be nuked from orbit?

I'm not worried, Root is ;P

I should edit his motivations a bit though, he would probably care more that you're not being rigorous in your analysis than that you're potentially endangering the team.

[Comrade P.]

If so,  what kind of damage would the riot shield reliably protect against?

Are you trying to do armor thickness testing in verbal form or something?

[Nunzillor]

I don't want to go into great detail.   All I want to know is whether the shield would have some use or be completely ineffective.

[Comrade P.]

Built from random junk? Chances are, it will be barely effective, if at all so. But that's just my opinion.

[Hapah]

Even odds on it doesn't protect enough to matter, or PW uses you making the shield as an excuse to weld your foot to the shuttle.

[Nunzillor]

In that case I'll cross it off.  I thought since pw said that the scrap metal armor was slightly useful perhaps a scrap metal shield would also be slightly useful.  I'm just worried about being under equipped.

[Harry Baldman]

It'd probably work if wandering Hephaestus savages were to throw rocks at you or something.

Though what exactly would you be trying to guard yourself against, though? Do you think the demon in the freezer will shoot you with a gauss rifle or something?

[Nunzillor]

Ice spikes?  Shrapnel from explosions,  perhaps?  We do have a lot of explosives...

I think that this "demon" will not be stationary and will actively attack us.

[Harry Baldman]

Ah, now shrapnel you might actually protect yourself from with that. As for ice... I'd say it'd actually make sense, but then I've seen icicles impale people through MK3 suits back in M10. But then, an inch of steel might be enough to turn that impalement into a nasty scratch (though at 4 Kelvin that'd probably be just as bad, no?).

[NAV]

Go ahead and make that shield. At the very worst it will be a useless placebo and at best it might save your life.
