Go time.

[Ozarck]

I wanted to maximize body count while minimizing risk of our own destruction, but that kind of fine tuning is difficult with dice involved.

Let's go.

Mission: Partial success. Nearly enough bodies? But not a continued source. Breeding program maybe, though. Added bonus: fleet of viable ships collected. Losses: one, fate unknown.

[piecewise]

Done! I'll assume what you guys have done is just gather as many people as humanly possible and then flew off in the direction of Heph.

Hmm. We'll have to wait a bit for you to show up, but lets see...you seem to have gotten pretty good numbers here. Over your quota, though a fair few of these aren't exactly the best specimens. Oh well; it's good enough for me.

Lets see, this group seems pretty good together.

How would you like to help with something that might potentially save the human race?

[Kedly]

Vincent is 100% dow  for saving the human race. He could use a little bit of moral redemption

(also the ship is only good for stocking up on supplies, staying on it any longer than that almost seems more dangerous than the missions themselves)

Edit: I second the request to get a chance to resupply before the next mission if possible.

[Twinwolf]

That depends; Most of us don't have weapons because of the covert nature of our last mission. Will this possibly require weapons? If so, it'd be nice to have a chance to resupply and obtain weapons first. If weapons will not be needed, sure, why not?

[DoctorMcTaalik]

Gus is hesitant at the thought of saving the human race; sure, he supports the idea in the abstract, but he's also really looking forward to being back on the Sword. Are our characters going to be presented with the option, or is this to be an entirely OOC decision?

[Ozarck]

Dester is quite pleased with the team as a whole. OOC, while Ozarck would like the credits for upgrading his character's equipment, I'm down with ... at least finding out what this new, potentially risky venture will be.

Perhaps, though not officially stated in game, we could assume that some Armory level equipment was gotten during our wealthy stage on [unnamed hive planet]? Like, for all the team? Maybe nothing particularly exotic or unique to ARM, but armor and supplies fitting a group of wealthy UWM moguls?

Edit; Assist with any amp removals requested by teammates. Use whatever facilities and help necessary to ensure the best possible outcome.

FOr a while there, I was too caught up in the whole "the world is going to hell" thing to remember, but the Sword is not the only source for violent armament in the universe.

[Gentlefish]

Absolutely. After all, what's a human life or two when it comes to humanity?

I still have my make-fire PK amp. I don't want that anymore either. I would love a stop-and-go somewhere along the way for the quickest of resupplies and amp removal.

Unless Dester wants to cut it out for me in case it's not too difficult.

[Ozarck]

We have the equipment and probably a fair number of our doctors available. I think it would be a simple matter to have it removed. Action edited.

[piecewise]

Well, you know how Maurice's ex-girlfriend is now eating reality?  And you know how it came from someplace outside the universe? We'd like to send you into a few places like that.

To do some house shopping.

[Kedly]

Gonna go for a shopping trip over in the next universe? I'm still down, but I would REALLY like to pick up an MK-3 first

[Ozarck]

Dester is in, though somewhat reluctant due to the danger. His exotic interests compel him forward though. Besides, he's already assisted in 'relocating' a handful of people off a doomed planet, what's a few billion more out of a doomed universe?

Way I figure it, we have: a fleet of ships, a squadron of surgeons, and an entire well armed militia on hand, not to mention the trappings of wealth from our rise to greatness. We're a wealthy pirate band now, fellas. I imagine we could probably supply the entire team out of that, assuming we did some of that during our wealth and greatness phase.




request:

Spoiler: recommended outfitting, subject to PW's whims and other factors (click to show/hide)

(some characters I have less for, sorry guys, I can't think of role suitable stuff. make some suggestions? We were wealthy enough on the Hive World for a while to at least attempt to get this stuff, right?)

Gus and Jesse: paramilitary command outfits including armor, choice of sidearm, long gun, and tertiary weapon (all UWM accessable - no AM designs or the like). battle stims for strength, endurance, dexterity. Maybe the muscle enhancement augmentation (pricey, I know). Command communications device for interacting with the security team
Vincent: choice of sidearm and light armor, charisma and mind stims.
Petra: crowdwire gloves (because of when she had to oversee the refugee situation), Charisma stims, choice of sidearm and medium armor
Ryan: Medical equipment to taste, choice of sidearm and light armor.
Dester: Two advanced medkits, invisibility cloak, civic defender's long coat (or better pricey lightweight armor, if available), exoskeleton, mind stims(10) (maybe the pricey perfected regeneration)command communication interface for directing the group, capable of accessing communications with all subordinates through the various teammates' comms (bossy, bossy).
Team: set of QECs, six advanced medkits, stock of coagulant boosters, 2 private shuttles (one flashier and befitting the wealthy CEO of a shipping company, the other, more sedated and befitting a group of people who wish to attract little attention with their comings and goings - Dester's preferred transport), various military style items that would likely be found in a paramilitary defense organization of the like we now employ (thinking of guardbots and arscs and the like, but I wouldn't want to collapse the quantuum state on these yet.), pressure tents.

Gus is hesitant at the thought of saving the human race; sure, he supports the idea in the abstract, but he's also really looking forward to being back on the Sword. Are our characters going to be presented with the option, or is this to be an entirely OOC decision?

I think the SWORD is over in M21 territory, guys:

7.Well you're exiting back onto the sword. Your shuttles can't reach FTL speed. 

so .... we're probably not going that way anytime real soon. Maybe get a message to Fred to send a supply shuttle our way? Maybe, if we stop at Heph before going traveling we could get some prototypes not yet widely available? then again, since it's gonna take a while to get to Heph, that too might need to wait.

[DoctorMcTaalik]

That reminds me: whatever happened to Gus' gear? Was it left on the Daedulus, or did the sons store it somewhere? If the latter is true, I would expect that it would have been brought aboard the exit ship prior to launch.

[Gentlefish]

Dester's got my outfitting right. I'm a battlefield medic. I'd love to have my Haebi implant, seeing as how that's Ryan's next outfit-of-choice for more exotic surgery tools. But that's currently out of the question.

I -would- prefer a weapon that makes use of my exotic stat that has zero to do with origin-related shenanigans. However, that's not important. I'm sure Ryan and point-and-shoot if he has to. Preferably something light caliber (shocking!) and easy to carry.

I'd like the Civic Defender's longcoat and something underneath that can absorb lasers to a degree, while still being light. I imagine the hiveworld had something like that. Something to help me absorb a blow to the vitals or something.

Essentially, I'm going for a "quick" build. I'd rather not be weighed down by armor if it inhibits my doctoring abilities.
