But, will the alien god even have a skull? What's the point of fighting a very, very desperate fight against a foe many time stronger than us if we don't even have the chance of getting a trophy?

I don't like this, man. Both because I don't think even the supervets combined can put a dent into the Lurker, and because I always look real bad in photos.

Also, photographs suck out your soul. An old native american guy told me once.

Gonna depend on what we're given to work with, probably. Don't even know for sure yet what alien it is (Lurker seems likely, but maybe pw will mix it up and give us another one to throw ourselves at).

I don't think killing it is on the table, to be honest. Probably it's going to be a distract/annoy it until the vets finish our final weapon kind of deal.

So... a weapon to kill a god.

Are you going to be breaking down and analysing every stupid and dangerous thing we've encountered and stored over all the missions, in order to make it?

Actually, that sounds like the penultimate episode of a badly thought out sitcom.

NOw we just need a training montage. alternating between supervets throwing progressively more and more ridiculous attacks at the lurker, normal vets cobbling together the giant death penis to end all giant death penises out of everything we've ever encountered, and the newbies faffing about trying to find a nice universe for us to skedaddle to. All with some kind of 80/90 music in the background.

There's always the standby.

Okay. Do we get paid for our jolly good work?
Sure sure, this mission is basically done anyways. All we would have to do is wait for the super vets to punch a few more guys. So everyone will get paid and then we'll continue on.

...
Is the super-weapon going to be a ghost-ship-type-thing?
Because if so, Imma gonna have to say NOPE to that.
Nah.

It's far far worse.

Wait p-dub does that mean I won't be on the orgy verse exploration team with kedly?
I suppose anyone promised to other missions first could go there. This is in general.

So... a weapon to kill a god.

We're not killing a god with the weapon in so much as we're enacting a scorched earth policy.

And it's not the lurker the super vets are fighting.

This should make me glad, because the lurker is bad news.

Yet it doesn't. Not even a bit. I wonder why.

By the way, can I still bring the Avatar, or not? Don't wanna go with it if it'll just get commandeered five seconds in, though figuring out the replacement would take time as well.

Sorry to be persistent, but I'd kinda like to know as soon as possible whether or not I'll need to plan out a whole new set of equipment for just this last mission or not.

@Pancaek
Possibly because when the M26 team summoned a second Lurker by accident, I killed it with explosives the next turn.  While the current alien menace has been happily chugging along while under a continual nuclear barrage from over forty full size warships.

Have fun, you guys!  Saint'll just be prepping his own evac somewhere on the opposite side of the system.
