So this means we can't use the Sword cannons as much anymore, right? Which makes Radio's air support plane much more important.
Are things like the plasma projector no longer for sale, or just less predictable?

You know what, after this I'm designing a tank and then we just drown everything in ordnance.

I fail to see how this is different from what we already do.

2. Space magic has become far more dangerous. Look at your uncon/exo score. See the +X next to it? Thats the number of times you can use Space magic without any extra danger.  Any times more than that and you start getting increasingly hard rolls in the background. The more you use it, the more unstable it becomes, and if you use it too much, you might end up harboring something none too friendly.

Synthflesh seems...mostly unaffected so long as it remains in relatively small quantities. However, too much of it or putting it in close proximity to amps and manips can result in strange effects. Kinetic amps seem to be unaffected for the large part but their outputs are more difficult to guess now, and can often be under or overpowered.

Also, unknown future consequences which I'm sure the few people in the know are worried about right now! Yay!
And bawl until my eyes bleed out.
It will be ok Radio, you're still powerful, it's just a more dangerous power. Avatars were always too safe anyways!

Quick question: we know the Avatar is big enough to harbor murderous intent against all life. Is that big enough for some Reality Breakage?

And question two, what's going to happen to the Armory Master? She's packed to the gills with space magic, no?
It depends. As long as he's not stressing it, then no. But if he starts using it beyond normal casual actions, the die starts rolling.

She'll be...Ok, she won't be fine. But she'll be alive. For now. You probably won't see her much for a while though.

I'm guessing we'll see the effects on the AM soon enough. Anyone wanna go buy anything?

Also, heeeeey pw, now that we'll need to build all these new toys to replace the ones Maurice M21 broke, can we have Hep updates again? Gotta drive you mad to fix my broken spacemagic heart~
We'll create a bunch of new stuff alright. We should do that one of these days over IRC. Get a bunch of stuff made at once.

How much do we reckon a howitzer would cost? now we can't get any magic explosions, JUST HAVE NORMAL ONES IN GREATER QUANTITY!

So it was like a binary search, except the question is "Has the input been brutally murdered?", and it only ever returns True.

Imagine the joy Devastator must be feeling.


But this is one emotional rollercoaster. I don't know what to wish for anymore.

I'm a little ambivalent.

It's not quite an enormous cock-up due to bad decisions, except for the decision to flee in a spaceship guaranteed some space magic survived to be eaten.

It's also doesn't seem like a net win for the galactic population.  The war continues, and Steve's going to kill more guys, and in a fairly significant way everything's closer to ending.

So yeah, not much joy.

Of course, Twin is neither man nor woman but an unholy eldritch abomination like every other Bay12er. The difference is they hide it better.

Yeah, Vincent has no idea anything at all has happened, the only hint is his team is being pushed for faster results

Do we get full refunds if we turn in our existing origin tech?

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.
