I think I may take one of the second suits once I'm done restating up Kyle.

Also, this new system let's me make a proper combative medic. I love it!

Wait, we can use prototype weapons and suits? Where can I find what I can get?

Does the halloween event count as a mission?

Is it possible to load up a scenario with the Haebi in the VR to see what works well against them?

@KJ

It's not a suit, it's a Heavy Robotic Body.  There's a reason that it can have 60% the armor of a battlesuit and still fit through doors: It just has a brain inside.

No, getting your head chopped off is not a disadvantage.  It makes you a far better soldier, more effective in almost every way.

@Peradon

The Shipping Manifest page.

Once I talk to PW about it a bit more, I might add the Man-Machine Interface brain implant, which for now would just let you send brain texts, and possess robots (if PW allows mission possessions).  That would probably just become standard equipment without being tested though.  Another thing which might get added is some form of medium armor like Milnoplate, if PW lets me retroactively design it.

Nah, still sounds like a pretty bad idea.

Do I need to buy ammo for my laser rifle?

... Wait... The MCP is a robot body and not a suit?

@Kedly

No, MCP stands for Mechanical Counter-Pressure, which Pyro designed, and which should have replaced all MK.I suits.

Come to think of it, KJ could have been talking about the MCP.II suit, and I misunderstood him.  If so, whoops.

And yesno.  No, ammo comes with the rifle.  Yes, if you run out of ammo you'll need to buy a new battery.  No, you won't run out of ammo because PW never remembers.

I try to track ammo usage on the wiki, at least when the amount used is apparent. So don't necessarily bet on this.

Also, the Team Fund page is a better link for prototypes. Since it mentions the rules for getting them, and all.

Also, I kinda feel that even Piecewise might remember the battery time running out if one keeps firing and firing and firing at the endless zerghorde of Haebi.

Oh cool, thanks. I didn't actually level up for eight, did I?

Well, I don't remember much about that mission, but if you did not, you probably should, as Piecewise is truly the most kind and benevolent GM where it comes to granting level-ups for missions where the participation was nominal or minimal; and where it is direct result of physical disability that came during the mission, you even get paid for the mission! A little. Too little compared to '5 tokens default' of the earlier age.

Teleport is about to wear off for Tek.  Can anyone suggest any restricted areas of the ship to attempt to teleport to for his last turn as a pharaoh?
