Herp derp, I made a mistake when reading the part of the turn related to the power source. It's actually less dangerous than expected! Except for Milno, of course. In any case, I still suspect it's very much pissed and may not cooperate in any energy-producing endeavors unless reasoned with. Posting soon, both for past and present. GWG, are you around?

Pancaek, could you give me that list of pills you still have? I think we of the infiltration team will need your pills. All of your pills. We may need to turn even the weakest member of our team in a roid-raging killing machine when the time comes.

2 pills each for end,str,dex. 3 pills each for oter stats. 0 pills for will. Special "pan likes milno because he chose him for a cool club" discount available when buying in bulk

I doubt it was the Mafia one;  I didn't see the argument there, but it spilled out into a new thread much like here.  I told them the fate of this thread, and it got locked by the creator quickly.  That was two days before his mute, so it was probably unrelated.

Could we reshape and enlargen a monoatomic blade into a sort of sword? It'd have more range, and it'd be easier to slash with it.

they actually do have mono swords, nod modding needed. Just ask

No. I suppose there are similarities, but I'm fairly certain angry birds doesn't let me charge into a battalion of knights with a car made of circular saws.

I was interested in the Willpower pills but hesitated when you mentioned they'd be pricier. Kind of regretted later when you sold them at the same price you had set, but that was bad luck on my part. I'll have Milno buy all of your physical enhancing pills in a few posts unless we manage to get that from the armory as "mission equipment". Charisma pills also almost certainly being bought, and Intelligence not so sure.

Also comes in battlesuit sizes!

The reshaping part is tricky, though. For some reason people keep having trouble with the fact that a monoatomic razor is a vibrating wire stretched taut like a cheese cutter. That means you can't really reshape it into anything but a straight line or it damages whatever's deforming it.

It IS possible to have something like a double-edged straight sword, but keep in mind the point is likely to be regular metal since monrazer doesn't do points

Which brings up the question; what token method are these missions using?  I could see it being split up; A could be based on the token budget, B could hand out some base level equipment that gets deducted from your pay, and C could be the traditional "bring your own, get paid at end" style.

I don't recall how much work has been done trying to use non-physical means of bending it, but I suspect most of the same issues apply- you'd need an incredibly strong force to withstand it, so now you're talking about an expensive automanipulator to let you hit things with a sword better/easier/at weirder angles. At that point, you're probably better off buying a battlesuit or cutting laser or something.

Damn. Well, I'll post anyway and we can probably negotiate after he comes back. I'm kind of tempted to talk to that power source so we can at least get some background on those aliens from Mission One and discover whether they'd be hostile or not in case of awakening. In case Grate keeps it, I guess we'll see whether the sentient generator can hate other humans less enough to provide some power for them.

It'd be a redaction for you to interact with it any more, since Grate stayed behind. Which is kinda sad - you were the only one to get anything out of it. Even if what you got was basically 'I fucking hate you go away'.

We made a deal since piecewise was pushing things forward so that our negotiation would be retroactively made.

I do want to volunteer for mission A, but the pizza situation and subsequent emotional breakdown needs to be dealt wit first.
Although there's a flood of volunteers for it anyway... I'll throw my hat (?) in for B as well.

Denzel actually uses one. There is a length limitation, and the blade can't be curved. I should look into getting either a razor to supplement or double-siding my sword, though.

They cost 6 tokens, for the record. You can custom-build for cheaper, though.
