@Radio Controlled
Yeah, I'd possibly suggest toying with gravity instead of mass in case it's more efficient in terms of effort/effect. But you're right, with Morul tired it's not on the table, really. Unless...
Oh shi-


Radio, you silly leader. Doesn't Miyamoto recall what Maurice tried to tell him so desperately? Something that he went as far as personally testing out? And something that apparently works for amps since the old-style manipulators were just amps in a different guise?
You know you have a way of potentially replenishing Morul right there (and if it doesn't work for some reason, you're no worse than before), and probably even in a sufficiently short period of time.

With fewer people shooting down the enemies, we'll get some more hits... I suppose it's unavoidable at this point.  Looks like this mission will be deadlier than 18, I think.

I'm hoping that the attacks will stop now that we nuked the area they came from.

I do wonder if we just rolled really badly or what. We had 4 people working on it, still wasn't enough.

@nik: I don't think we have any alcohol on us.

You do have a nasty backup option. The biggest weight in/on the shuttle right now is Miya's Avatar. Without it, the shuttle could have enough thrust in its remaining engines to resume ascent...

Which would leave Miya to an unfortunate fate, since even if he survives falling down, he likely won't survive long enough to be picked up again.

That's a last ditch option I'm considering, but I'll be checking all our other options first. We can ditch the assaultsuit once it's out of fuel though, that'll be something, and if there are other shuttles Miya could try moving to one of them.

Better one or two dead than a TPK.

@Radio Controlled
Aaaand let me check the cheatsheets... Bingo!
According to wiki, Kyle Johnson has a flask of booze. Bless his prepared soul. Now the only thing left is having the team's medic (Kyle himself, for example) work out the dosage and administer it to Morul's robobody. And then work out a way to detox him.
I mean, that's better than doing nothing and slowly waiting for death in the belly of a giant metal bird?

@Sean Mirrsen Actually, I'd wager that Miyamoto can (easily, even) survive on the ground until the shuttles come. Especially if he tries and removes the inhibitions, with no friendlies nearby anyway. Now the shuttles might have trouble reaching him, and that's a whole different worry.

Cant miya just jump out of the shuttle and amp punt himself into orbit?

Edit: and by jump out i mean get dropped, or detached, or let go, whatever it is that he needs to do to seperate his mass from the shuttle.

Clearly running multiple missions at the same time is a terrible idea.  The epic battle to see which team can cock it up worse has escalated again.

And Larry kinda gets blueballed in all this; just left with a raging bone spear and no where to put it.

Just read the story of Miyamoto. So he's the strongest bloke round here then?

Strongest by virtue of personal achievement, yes. There have been a few contenders for the "strongest person out there" floating around, but they were mostly products of the Doctor's insane experiments, are currently mostly stasis-catatonic (or deprived of their powers, as in case of Xan) and still might or might not have been up to the might of our proud General Miyamoto.

But he can still be taken out by a single lucky (or more likely unlucky friendly) amp attack. I still can't understand why he hasn't bought a shield  automanipulator or two for his organic body.

Well, Snapdragon was a pretty uneventful resuce. Well, uneventful compared to how missions normally go.

As for Gyromitra? Currently we're wondering if the holes in our ship are large enough to shoot at incoming projectiles through ::)

((If only we had someone who was skilled in medical matters))
((If only we had one that wasn't dead. Seriously, what's up with the medics being the first to die on this mission?))
And now you know why (and how) I came to the painful realisation "there's not gonna be a medic around when you really need them, so you better be a medic yourself" :P
