I'm kinda wanting to join a mission, but at the same time I don't know if my sheet is finished correctly.
I also need to requisition a badass eyepatch from the AM, but I imagine I'd have time to do that before we have to blast off...

It was for equipment stuff. Could you maybe check who has stuff that can replace whatever they ought to get, then send me the finalised wishlist?

Alrighty, I have a question regarding my precious self.

Since my character is basically a brain in a shell, all of his physical stats (end, dex, str) are defined by his shell, so how can it be played out IC should I wish to improve one of those with points earned on mission? Or, say, I move to another shell with some points spent in, say, strength - how can I play IC that my robobdy is more buffed than factory settings consider it to be?

The way it works now is that you're not changing the physical strength of your body, just increasing your level of control of your strength.

Knowing how to apply your strength and generally better physical technique is one of the standard answers. And I'm fairly certain Strength now is more of a mental/muscle memory thing than an actual gauge of the total force you can exert.

Temporary ground team lists, subject to change:

Note that cap is at 10 per team, we're at 9. People can still sign up, but then we will have to think long and hard on who goes. Because right now, it's A LOT of 0 and 1 mission newbs.

Which...which team is which? Where in the name of sweet bearded baby J did you get those team names?

I can't be expected to remember the names of everyone I've tried to stab.

What?

It sounded topical.

Anyways, there's only two teams, one team for each drop site.

Awesome, it's going to be like mission 7 all over again. Mostly noobs with a couple vets to guide them, in a high combat mission.

One of them doesn't even have a weapon, just a helmet and some stilts.

Added some roles

Lot of this probably will be (partially) inaccurate until respecs all done, but it gives an idea.

That idea is pain.

Ha, I need tokens but I have very little to offer on such a mission. Guns vs. evil plants doesn't sound too hopeful.
I suppose I have some chewing gum- someone with handiwork could use it to rig up a makeshift flamethrower or something.
Oh, and a lunchbox full o' drugs is always handy. The teams should be fighting over me! :P

While we're on the subject of missions: ANYONE WHO STILL WANTS TO JOIN THE MISSION FOR ONE OF THE GROUND TEAMS, THIS IS THE LAST CALL! Will close signups in a few days so I can divide, hopefully will have done equipment stuff for blops by then as well.
Lyra is neutral on the matter of going on-mission or not, and has no preferred team. If any of the teams wants / needs her, let her know. this includes the blops team if they want her.

also, I haven't been tracking the ooc and respec thread all that closely, but do I need to respec yet again or something? I thought I'd just done that.

((I don't think heating something that is right above us to a ridiculous degree is very smart. Worst case scenario we become +metal statues+. This is a finely crafted metal statue. It is encrusted with sharkmist and HMRC. On the item is an image of HMRC and Pancaek. Pancaek is laughing. The HMRC is melting. The artwork relates to the encasing of the HMRC in metal by Pancaek during the Mission of Many People.))
