It really amuses me that you people are joining in on him being mind controlled, when to me it's simply him making such a bad roll PW went a little OOC for him acting out his terrible idea(manning a machine gun with -1 con)

[Pancaek]

I'm also pretty sure he could break out of it if he rolled a 5 or 6 to resist the mindfuckery. But hey, this will be a good test of hasala's leadership capabilities.

I'm with Tryrar. Also, I feel someone should remove his hands next time he even looks at a weapon bigger than a twig.

[Unholy_Pariah]

You sure piecewise isnt just rolling for impulse control due to his distinct lack of willpower?

[Parisbre56]

Isn't there someone in the APC with him?

I have 3 conventional weapons skill. I'm fine for shooting things.

Or get someone to mind control me and point me in the direction of whatever needs exploding.

It's either mindfuckery or this.

There was supposed to be, but he ditched guard duty.

It's natural to search for convenient answers in complex madness.

"Why's he murdering his allies with a machine gun?"
"Possessed by devil."
"Innately evil."
"Listens to rap music."
"Alien mind control."

Pretty sure Hasala had his ribcage contents confiscated by a bullet.

If we've really learned nothing whatsoever with Stacy, I really don't see us learning anything with this.

Plus, if we did shoot everyone who shot someone else we'd be pretty light on soldiers. By which I mean it'd be one veteran who'd learned to hold perfectly still and a bunch of newbies who hadn't had a chance to ruin everything yet.

Or we can cut off his hands and never have this problem again. Give him combat tentacles or something.

Oh yes, there's absolutely no way that could go wrong. /sarcasm Besides, I'd just spend my tokens on new hands.

So I'm Stacy mark II? WINNING

[kj1225]

Cut off the new hands. Duh.

[NAV]

Someone could ask Steve to zap Lerman's brain stem. That's still a thing right?

Oh, brilliant. Let's hack off anything that causes problems and replace it with something weirder.

Actually Shoggoth X-COM could be pretty awesome. But still.

plz no

Believe so, actually.

Here's an idea Smurf- you could raise your faceplate then detonate a flashbang in your own face.  That would certainly prevent you from being mind controlled for awhile, or if you do get MC'd, you at least wouldn't hurt your allies.  You might even hurt the guy controlling you, depending on how their MC works!

_{Also it would be hilarious.  That too.}

It would only work for a turn, until the helmet resets. Our helmets have smart-glass that auto-dims. I think Morul found that out during the AP mission when he asked for a welding mask and piecewise said he didn't need one.

That's why I said he should raise the faceplate.  Underneath the faceplate is just normal glass.  Presumably, it's designed like that so you can see if your suit loses power or a sociopath scambles your HUD.

My will is too low; I'd end up throwing it at someone or somehow managing to explode the APC.

The former would be much better than shooting the person, and the latter would still disable you.

Why would he twitch if he just rolled bad on CON?  Why would he give an ironic one-liner, that didn't relate to his horrific incompetence?  Rolling low is usually stuff like being a complete idiot or acting schizophrenic.  Also, it's almost always accidental for CON, and he gave a one-liner that fit what he did perfectly, showing obvious premeditation.

Perfect idea.  Do this.

[Parisbre56]

The faceplate is a screen that shows whatever a camera sees.
Underneath the faceplate is smart-glass that keeps the air from leaving and auto-dims, among other things.
I'll try searching for the post this was mentioned in but it might take a while because writing from phone.

[smurfingtonthethird]

But I need my brain! That's where I keep my knowledge things!

Though I'm pretty sure lerman's mind is emptier than a field.

Um, will the charge kill me, or just knock me out for a while?
