We should really rename that thing to kinetic multiplier or IKEA or something, because people keep confusing it with psychokinetic amplifiers.

The Power Glove.

I'd be up for this, but this would support the other misconception about the kinamp, which is that it actually increases your strength.

[Sean Mirrsen]

XCOM called their mechs' power fists Kinetic Strike Modules. Why not just Kinetic Striker, or Kinetic Impactor?

On the topic of God-Steve, I wonder if the UWM are running extensive checks on the rest of their wetware AIs right about now. Maybe there's an AI discrimination angle we could latch onto.

Although they're mostly uncomplicated AIs, I guess, like ARES or something.

[Caellath]

Yeah, M19 people can post. I should have told you beforehand it'd take me a while to make a decision on token count so there you have it.

Probably not like ARES, it was reasonably complicated. Still is, since its Steveified copy is running on its own. An uncomplicated AI would be more like ALVIN.

[Harry Baldman]

Yes, ARES did seem like it was somewhat top-of-the-line in complexity, so there's probably not much the UWM needs to keep an eye on anyway. Maybe plug up the security holes Steve has left in a lot of places.

I just want to say, you guys are absolutely insane.  (As am I, I suppose for trying to read through all of ER)

I'm on page 362 of the original mission thread, and 315 of the on-ship thread(Mission 6).  I read everything, not just piecewise's posts.

...that is all.  Back to your regularly scheduled programming.

We shouldn't rename the Kinetic Amplifier, the name is appropriate. Just rename the psychokinetic amplifiers, because they aren't actually amplifying anything.

Problem is, what they actually do is classified information. So correctly naming them is accordingly a problem.

Also, easier to rename the kinetic amplifier than the entire variety of psychokinetic amplifiers.

Speaking of which, IIRC the guy who was currently carrying the X3 gauss rifle and wanted to sell it, I'd be happy to pay your price for it(my previous char was the owner of it after all after getting it from the teamfund. Only ever fired it at a teamate )

That was me. I'm contemplating liquidating my assets to pay for one of them power glove thingies. Bonus points if I can combine it with a force infuser and recharge it by bashing it into things.

Wait, when did Steve go loud? We brought someone called Steve on the diplomacy mission specifically to pin the blame on anyone mentioning Steve to the Q'bajans, didn't we?

that thing is conventional? I'd figure it would be multiclass (con/uncon) at least. It even has aspects of auxilliary in it. seems like you'd have to roll different stats depending on the use.
