Xan, you wasted an opportunity to say "It's impolite to talk about a lady's weight!"

If Arbiters had rocket weapons, I reckon they'd be dead ringers for those monsters near the end of "time bandits". Anyone here savvy?

Fairly close, actually

Should we be worried or relieved that M22 managed to completely cock up our mission before the other two have really even gotten started?

I wonder how Piecewise would have increased the difficulty if Miya had actually gone on the mission. Would there have been two AoPs?

As if an Arbiter doesn't eat Avatar for breakfast already. Now, an unbound one, together with some high level spess magics...

Still, I probably would have reverted to plan N anyway.

Eh, it was just bad luck. I think that if it was team Shallow down there or a mixture of the two, we could had won without destroying the entire colony. But, hindsight 20/20 and all that.

Besides, like I said, this is technically all Steve's fault. Not gonna complain about him saving almost everyone in the most efficient way possible, it's what I would do, but he's the one who overloaded a manip. This incident is on him :P

The only way it would had been better is if he had written a number with nine digits.

With the actual conditions in M22 (and finding out that the source was automanip-based) then it's most likely that getting out of M22 alive is considered "success."

What else would we do; capture the Arbiter?

Well, you discovered what you needed to know: The colony was destroyed by the UWM, testing a very unusual auto-manip. We would have liked to get the auto-manip, but in practice with an Arbiter *right there*, that would have been incredibly dangerous or impossible, since you would have had to somehow disable the auto-manip without damaging it, while trying to keep an Arbiter from destroying *you*. And the auto-manip.

Now excuse me while I get some popcorn to go watch the escape. I plan to be quite entertained by it. :P

Heh, I'd like to point out my chars are now 3-for-3 for being on missions that end in fiery explosions. If Yancy is permadead, can I just have his equipment donated to my next char, so when the inevitable 4-for-4 happens I can actually survive it? :P

No. I suppose there are similarities, but I'm fairly certain angry birds doesn't let me charge into a battalion of knights with a car made of circular saws.
