The heat-dispersing fins on the back of the suits remind me of Joe Haldeman's The Forever War.  Read it, piecewise?

[Toaster]

Gentlemen, I propose, when we all get back on the ship, we get into one VR session and randomise it.

Awesome.

He's actually cited that as the second of two major influences of the series, heavily influencing much of the equipment.  The first is Roadside Picnic, which influenced the premise.

The plan is for him to buy either a Nyars Box or a Tesla Saber to start. I got the idea when I realized that aforementioned saber only costs 5 tokens. Anything I did that may result in instagib, aside from 0 END?

Seems good. I assume you have points in charisma, exotic and conventional because you intend to do a build similar to Lars'? Because it might be better to just focus on one weapon skill until you get a +2 with it and then expand to other skills. Unless you're doing it for RP reasons, then it's OK.

And now mission 14 really needs an evac.

[Parisbre56]

At least the goop thrower works.

[Radio Controlled]

This batch of missions is going just dandy.

Then again, goop thrower test_01 SUCCESS!

[Pancaek]

Well, I feel useless. Gonna just lay on the kitchen floor chill out I guess, nothing I can really do.

If it makes you feel better, steve is shocking her right now. It's just not effective since he's shocking Faith's brain and faith's brain isn't controlling anything.

But you did manage to survive a full power kinetic amp club swing with relatively little damage, all things considered. Thats not something to sneeze at.

Well, at least I ain't dead. Hallelujah for that. I've got two quick questions though, can Pan see faith from down the hole and is there any chance I can get a exo bonus for my next roll because my last two actions were to attack with my amps, but both got interrupted?

Sure to both.

You can't afford it. After all, evac shuttles are paid in overloads and perma-deaths. You guys have neither.

[yobbo]

Damnit, now i'm really wishing i stole Hasala's stim pills as well as the gun.

Well, looks like it's Yttra vs. Faith. Any votes on whether she should try to escape, or just keep gooping?

Dunno how much the stuff that already hit is hindering Faith, probably depends whether the thing that's controlling her is using her eyes to aim with (which going by headless and bandages seems straight up unlikely).

If you roll well enough that you can actually run, you might as well just keep shooting. And hope Pancaek rolls well for Dex.

Not sure what you expect me to do with dex, though, seeing as I've got no legs and I'm one story lower
