Fired out of a gauss rifle, they'll be about as nonlethal as a rubberized 80mm cannon shell. :P

Perfect! I'm sure you guys would love the mere thought of tasing someone through their buddy.

Heh. Target has a bodyguard in front of them? Shoot through them and tase them all in one shot!

"I'll tell you: we fucked up. That kind of thing should never, ever happen again. Do you get me? I don't care if you decide to blow your own face off if it doesn't cause the mission any problem, but since this secret stuff the our kind of mission we've been getting, it probably will. As you might have noticed, the pay was average but I think Steve was feeling nice. Really, it could have been crappier and I wouldn't complain. Mess up again and it might be the last time you do it."

"I'll finally take some time off to rest and try to prepare an actual team via training so we don't repeat that kind of thing and I'm not forced to just handpick rookies in the hopes they don't turn out bad for the kind of thing we're doing. You noticed a single basic mistake almost cost us the mission and still screwed it up badly even without completely fucking it up. Now, Rookie, you'll lead this next mission since Sky's going mental."


There's a pause before he puts a robotic hand on Thaddeus shoulder and stares at him, squeezing slightly with those sharpened digits. "Everyone can fail, but in our line of job we can only fail so much before we screw up things for everyone. Now, you've been in missions with me and saw how I and the other vets do our thing. Always be wary, always be careful. Don't be paralyzed when you need to make choices, but do things as efficiently as possible. Keep an eye on your team this time and if they put the mission in jeopardy you can kill them if words don't help or there's no time for reasoning. And if you fail in this next mission, you don't need to come back. You can drive the nuke ship manually. Got it?"
I like the kinda 'Go get them team! And if you screw up, you're dead!' vibe Caellath has going here.

Hey pw, I just noticed that new cannisters for the chem thrower now cost 2 tokens, while we originally agreed on 1. Is that an oversight, or is there a reason you nerfed that?

Hey has anyone tried using the Mission 1 HEP-Progenitor's technology as some sort of motor? After all its rotations manage to mangle Milno's arm, imagine what it could do if its technology was used to make something designed specifically to spin?

Since it hovers via space magic and isn't attached to the user, you could probably use it to run a drill, or piston, or blender, or food processor, or saw, or fleshmangling face without the reaction forces affecting the user.

That mention of Pai Mei in the stat descriptions has me wondering, what stats and skills would a pure melee fighter use?
And how long would you expect him/her to last before dying horribly/getting upgraded/both?

Melee in ER is a little bit difficult unless you're ridiculously modded, a la Renen or Faith, or get in very specific situations. Or have a supersuit that can survive getting shot (eg battlesuit).

That said, I'm pretty sure Pai Mei would still kick our collective asses.

The beard is too powerful for even the Star-Eater to overcome.

Good god I want that to happen for a Halloween event or something. Pai Mei just appears on ship somewhere, someone pisses him off, and he kicks the shit out of everyone there.
My tired idea senses are tingling.

This is why you don't post sleepy.
Granted, I do it almost every night and it is inevitably inane crap, but whatever I like hypocrisy!

You kidding? My best realizations and ideas come when I'm completely exhausted by staying up for multiple days in a row.

If you want to get your butts kicked, then just wait until we have to fight the AM. It will be like that psychic that went crazy in that X-men movie.
Or just let crazy Ivan free again.

Hooray! Happy birthday, ER!

Will there be party? Will there be gifts? Will there be nice HMRC/ARM-special snacks and dishes? Will the Armory Master and the Doctor finally duet?

Normally I'd commemorate people's birthday by congratulating them for having avoided getting a Darwin award for another year, but I'm not sure if such an honor is truly ours. So, good job on us not sinking the game! Yet!
