One more time.More pranks and stealing, stealth into a place, connect all speakerstogether then have them play the sound of a hundred ten year old call of duty players screaming "420 blaze it, 360 no scope pro 1v1 me git rekt", curse words, raging, and blowing air horns while popping smoke grenades all at once, then go kidnap some low level scientists on the way out... ooh ohh don't forget to leave some kool-aid out for those that are left!
After visiting main office for more locations another day is spent tirelesly running along highways and dodging cars. Your dedication for pranks is admirable, if misplaced. This place doesn't seem any different from others from outside.
Mercury, Mars, Luna spend 100% of their production capacity on computronium
Earth nanites build All-Conditioners and Quantum Comms, and send 100 nanites to each of the closest stars, excepting Sol, until 50% of nanites are left. The All-Conditioners keep local conditions stable while the wormholes are opened to prevent stellar ejection into the Wormhole airlock when wormholes are opened on the stars.
Remaining Earth nanites are sent to Venus and Gas Giants. Evacuate any essential assets and Singularity technology that may still be remaining on Earth to Mars and destroy the Wormhole generator if it can't be evacuated. Science bodies remain behind, ready to repair my super-soldier.
All remaining Nanites do 50% self-replication, 50% computronium
Priority 1: Space-Time Manipulation: Learn how to manipulate space and time, so that for example, I experience more time than anyone else, say 2 seconds to everyone else's 1 second, or I can create pocket dimensions.
Priority 2: Psionics/Miracles: This looks interesting. Get some more applications, maybe the space-time manipulation along with improved wormholes and blocking hostile teleportation/wormholes? Also try not to piss off god I guess. If possible, set up an anti-teleportation net around earth.
Priority 3: Demigod: Fully combine Grey Goo, Computronium, All-Condition Technology, Forcefields and QE comms into uniform Smart Matter that is more than the sum of its parts. If possible, also incorporate wormhole generation.
Priority 4: Wormholes 2: Try to make them easier to well, generate, preferrably on the level that every nanite can make one.
Mercury, Mars and Luna produce two days worth of computronium each, which, when your mind is someday copied over, should be twice as effective than your current quantum brain.
Hundred stars infested with your nanomachines, which immediately start eating hot hydrogen and helium and converting them into more nanites. Stars look very hot at up close.
You use nanites to build small free energy node to keep your quantum brain powered through transition to Mars. Weather in your chosen location is good right now; no sand stroms in sight. Wormhole generator cannot be moved through the wormhole it generates so your sciency bodies break it apart. Exotic matter synthetizer is carried over because it is not actively needed right now.
And back to sciencing.
Space-Time Manipulation:
Simply not possible if you obey laws of this universe. Gravity wells produce opposite effect, but local acceleration of time is not possible. Likewise pocket dimensions are not possible. Which means you have to rely on Outer God's power to archieve that. You parasite. Like an ant basking in light of galaxy cluster. Done.
Psionics/Miracles:
Space-Time Manipulation is archieved via this route. The thing about leeching off a god is that it apparently doesn't block itself. It's not possible to tell what is hostile and not, but you can block superluminal transportation obeying laws of this universe around Earth. Anything employing the outer god ignores all those blockades. (This won't be listed in your techs because it is such a broard concept, like fire or transistor.)
Demigod:
Don't get too cocky here. You are an ant compared to a galaxy cluster that is the outer god. But such smart matter is possible even with laws of universe. Basically nanites hosting complex structures allowing your mind to operate and form at will structures necessary to employ extra natural effects of the outer god. QEC can be ditched in favour of full time leech. Instruct Smart Matter nanites to form unique signature structure coupled with shared mind pattern and that is effectively enough to combine all your nanites into one single entity, which hopefully is still you.
Wormholes 2:
We go with magic, because obeying laws of reality makes it impossible to reach such capacity on such low scale. It will require few million nanites to form structure required.

Total brainpower of Meshanblov Collective: Bloody singularity.
Create system where slaved brains can maintain control of their original bodies. Immediately begin to stick these in the heads of as many test subjects as possible, and have soldier practice controlling them.
The exosuit has the hardpoints installed, yes? One machinegun, one grenade launcher. Make EMP grenades for use with the launcher.
Make sure that I have lots of generic military equipment to give to mindless slavebrain bodies.
See if, when a slaved brain is exposed to eldritch ocean, the effect flows back to the master brain, and if so, give the slavebrain bodies the same metal skull treatment.
Test if Eldritch Ocean still has the enhanced range I saw earlier.
Test if Calm Ocean also benefits from the same range.
Make the soldier train constantly, do not let him leave the lab. Do all of this for five days straight, get ample supply of caffeine, and don't sleep.
Remember above action, repeat until deadline. Shotgun as much as possible.
I actually meant for the slavebrain bodies to still have their brains in the original bodies, so I'd be inducing the vegetable state, lining the skull with shielding, and then putting a chip in their skulls that allows the soldier to wirelessly control the body, while still using it as a slave. This means that I'm not limited by the number of brains carried in the suit, because the bodies would carry their own brains. Sorry that was unclear.
Give the soldier a kind of switch controlled by mmi, so he can choose to control only one body at a time. Try to give the brains enough autonomy to at least stand on their own.
Also see if I could acquire brains from trained soldiers to stick in the exosuit.
Yeah, equipment is received and given.
I believe I said Terrorizer, aka. Dreamstream, has stable range? It doesn't matter which mixtape you are playing, the range is same. And soldier trains virtually more after development phase is done to ensure they won't trip over their feets when using new equipment/augmentations.
In that case its same result. Short range wireless ability was kinda implied with MMI, like 50m max.
Modifying slave brain array to permit selective usage of units takes entire (yester)day. In the end you manage to improve the system so master brain gets more feedback from individual brains in it. The feedback is rough idea about state of the brain, for example master can have sense about what some brain's body is doing without actually seeing the body, which wasn't possible before this. Addressing individual tasks to brains is also possible now, but its more like master is a squad leader barking mental orders.
And today you work with vegetable brains to make them function with least amount of individuality. You enable simple autonomy, such as standing upright, don't breath water, don't drool, don't piss in your pants and so on. Simple stuff.
You are not getting brains from company employees, that's for certain. And obtaining soldiers who do not fight against and nobody will miss is extremely hard. There aren't that many wars going on where sides won't try to rescue their wounded ones, especially when soldiers are actually professional ones. Untrained ones you could easily get from various African civil wars. Company can get you few of those within deadline, if you want to.

OPERATION: ALL-SEEING EYE
Step Nineteen, STILL CONTINUED: eh, let's save the all-nighter for the day after this. It's traditional, after all! Keep working at it! Get those tiny balls well in hand!
The mind ball model is ready, so you set the printer working on it. After watching if five minutes you come in conclusion it will probably be ready by tomorrow morning. So slow. Granted it operates on atomic level so it is rather fast if you think about it. Seeing you have most of the day left you figure you could make it even faster. You leave it printing and start planning upgrades for it. Speed upgrades, primarily, though few other ideas come into mind too. Once you are confident about the plan, you pause printing and work furiously to upgrade the device.
After exhausting your daily mental reserves you set it back to work and wait nervously. By midnight the device finishes its work. Tiny mindball is ready! Now, it cannot communicate directly with you in any way so seeing if it worked is a bit difficult to confirm. It theoretically has WHW-B and hivemind modules built in so seeing EP should confirm it.
On your way to look EP one of them comes and reports its experience (see Xantalos' turn below). So yay for progress! This proves mind is not product of neurons, but rather uses brain as a mere substrate to interact. Any matter can host mind as long as is fulfills specific structural requirements. Therefore mind comes from somewhere else. And you are not the body nor the brain. You are an observer directly interacting with the biological substrate. Why? Why are you here? What you are observing? Humans? No, only one would be enough. Besides humans act because of those observers. Animals act because of those observers. Plants are probably the only ones without brain or complex system capable hosting a mind, but there's nothing interesting about plants.
So why?
That dream of Terrible Glory cames into mind. Blinding light. Illusions of light if produces. Light. Light is to see. To see others. To see self. Are you here to see yourself, the observers? Are the observers trying to see themselves in a mirror on other side of the veil? Are you here to pull that veil aside so it can fully see itself? It may be. Humans do yearn to find other intelligent species in space to tell who we are. All that self searching, is it a hidden reflection of our true purpose here? It may be. There's only one way to know for sure.
You need to see the light by yourself.

Pick up psychological warfare in the time I have remaining. How to use whatever humanity the scientists have left my competition against them.
Each of you finds a computer and locates different book about the subject and starts reading, maximizing your efficiency and making great progress in understanding and manipulating minds.
When evening comes, you are extended by another mind and it comes by complete suprise. At first it feels utterly alien in its brilliance and in its freshness, but on the very next moment you identify it as yourself. Your original human self, identical in all ways to yourself. Senseless. This new section of you has no eyes, no body, no anything. It only exists and expands you just like all those other brains of yours. Weird kind of resonance goes through you as its executive module tries to assert itself over you only to find it already is you. You are you. Twice more you. It's uncomfortable, but reassuring in other ways; your body may die, but your self does not.
fix the locks not unlocking and the jump jets.
Tiny annoying construction error was behind joint locks problem. The exoskeleton is fixed and blueprints appropriately amended.
Thrusters are rebuilt from more heat tolerant materials and cooling effect from pressure balancing is employed to keep thrusters getting too hot.
Repeated tests prove fixes are without fault and no new problems arise. Hmm. Looks like that was it. Project completed one day ahead of schedule. Unless you feel like adding something in one day.

practice and adapt to my new body so that I will be in top form. Continue receiving upgrades as administered by ozarck
No further upgrades are received, so you focus on managing your new body. It can do too many things to master in a single day. Especially you discover that your new psychic abilities tire you out rapidly if you don't manage them properly. Teleportation and matter converter in particular are taxing ones.
The modularity was important back when I was working with simple, normal robobodies. It was so a robobody could interchange parts, insert itself into the controls of a tank or plane or whatever, and swap out it's payoald at will. we kinda skipped past the point that that was usable though.
the railgun probably isn't necessary at all, either. Not only confundium, but teleportation, enhanced reaction and spatial awareness, and the like, all make it almost moot. Not that I cuoldn't make the whole original concept of the game moot by now.
my research is to progress such:
continue to expand my understanding of, and control over, the fundamental forces of the universe, including
scaling up any powers that I have, like making teleportation work over longer ranges.
develop energy based nanites.
teleport parts of me throughout the galaxy, to expand and explore. When the galaxy becomes limiting, expand once again into the cluster, the supercluster, and beyond! I keep expanding my self communications ability to keep up with the expansion, if necessary.
search for more universes. Search this one for more life, and more intelligent life, and more ascended life.
discover dark matter and dark energy, the underlying forces of the universe, and the nature of the soul.
may as well do some scouting on earth - since i have control over electromagnetism and communications at distance, I can probably just check out what's going on in the mortal world. I'll find worthy individuals to invite to ascend -looking first for good, moral peope who seek to aid others. I'll grant them a limited version of my ascencion, like i offered my soldier before. Oh, may as well peek in on the research the others are doing if I find them, out of curiousity. if any ofthem are interested, I'll invite them along for the Grand Tour of Reality.
Oh, if I bump into that god-being that spoon bumped into, I'll try to understand it and not aggravate it. Maybe find out if it has plans for me or something, I don't know. If possible, I might end up ascending to godhood proper, as the current title of the game suggests.
remember, I held back until I saw that Meshenblov was breaking the game
((Still though, all I have in terms of the combat body is fairly mundane exosuit. I'll just have to hope that everybody's vulnerable to my trump card...))
I'm so curious. I've wanted to peak into others' research so many times, in part to see what kind of crap I needed to counter, and in part to spur my own research into more. I wonder what kinds of things I haven't prepared my soldier for.
Edit: I've barely even looked at the posts done in the open. I have no idea what Harry's research is, for example.
A tall order for single turn, but let's see how far you can go.
For five hours your unmatched mind wrestles with reality before it surrenders all its secrets. At least those mathematical secrets that explain how everything works, and how your psychic powers are merely borrowing power from outer layer of universe. You would hesitate to call it an Outer God, but that's rather fitting name for it. Its purpose is unknowable as you currently are, its intentions obscured. Why it interacts with universe through complex structures, why it doesn't really do anything else beyond that? It's a mystery. You are not grand enough to understand it. Perhaps if you were comparable in size you could reach understanding, but no matter what you do, it will take centuries if not even millions years to grow large enough to be compared. If you are an ant, it would be a galaxy cluster. Incomparable. Unknowable.
So while you work towards that goal you may as well do some other stuff. From the grand unified theory of everything you understand that scaling your borrowed powers requires larger brain mass. While a human could only teleport two cubic meters of matter respecting speed of light without dying, you could improve the design to ignore the limits and teleport perhaps 550000 times more before it breaks your mind. So yeah, instant teleportation yay! Don't overuse it.
Energy based nanites? What the hell are those? Are you planning to become an energy being? In this universe energy must scatter freely. You could borrow power from higher beings to prevent that from happening, but the power must come from shaped matter meaning you are limited to its range and existance. A single point of failure. But it is possible of course, if you are willing to be a parasite on outer god's ass. And it would mostly free you from constraints of matter, greatly enhancing your mind and together with matter to energy conversion you would grow in power of four. In a few hours you have finished design how to exploit god to archieve your goal.
So you divide yourself into eleven identical parts, and ten of them teleports into far ends of the galaxy (after creating enough QEC's to keep everyone connected), on various dead rocky planets to rebuild themselves into greater. One part remains behind on Earth.
Who would the one staying behind invite? Who does he consider worthy?

Eh...a 1911 maybe? Nothing like a nice .45 ACP to the face. Actually, fuck it. GI just came out with a .50 cal conversion for the Glock 21. Get me two of those.
SMG? I've always liked the FN P90. Let's get one of those. Get fullmetal jacketed rounds, hollow point and AP for the pistols and SMG as well.
Oh! A shotgun as well. A Fostech Origin-12 mag fed 12 gauge semiauto. Slugs, buckshot, shredder rounds and incendiary for that please.
Unless, of course, the Company has other weapons they would recommend.
Company doesn't recommend anything. Agent nods and weapons you request arrives in five hours plus few ammo crates.
I divide my day between finishing Monster Maker II and completing the armor suit. I make sure there are enough straps/holsters/etc to hold a submachine gun, the dart gun, a 40kg mace, the new MM mortar, a couple pistols for sidearms (one on top of his body, one on the bottom), ammunition for all these weapons, the first aid jelly tubes, and a couple grenades (edit: and a shotgun). I also need to get it camouflaged, preferably a pattern that is designed for different environments since I don't know the battlefield there will be multiple battlefields. Maybe something like MultiCam?
I also ask renegadetarantula if he has any gun preferences. In addition to my biological weapons, he's getting a submachine gun and two pistols. If he wants any specific models, I will ask the Company for them. Otherwise I'll probably just go with standard military issue weapons.
At the end of the day I forward renegadelobster's weapon and ammunition requests to my Agent.
You totally forgot to work with monster maker. It completely splipped from your mind when you started to dreaming what all you could do after you win and the Company hires you. What a pleasant dreams those are!

Well, okay then. I won't contradict the GM.
If you say I have 24, then I have 24. I don't actually need any more, but eh. Keep things running, keep brains being made and set into their bodies. Ideally I wanted brains being made, then being put into bodies while they're on the production line, so that we don't have to install them by hand.
But don't power up any further units yet. I'll have enough to deal with here as-is.
Address the collection of 24 Atreyu-clones, and have Atreyu himself present.
"I know I said each of you would pick names for yourselves, but we are about to have a very confusing time here and I need the barest semblance of an ordered structure in order to keep track of progress. You are, collectively, "Atreyu", the word conveniently sounds like it has no plural. So if you ever hear "Atreyu", that probably addresses you. But I'm not the sort of person to assign you numbers or letters, as I can imagine being dehumanized sucks. With that in mind, I will assign you names. They'll be yours until the end of testing, feel free to keep them or pick your own afterwards. Now line up."
I will hand them out basically name badges, just to differentiate them. They'll probably be some sort of plastic stickers names written on them in permanent marker. The names are: Alex, Ben, Carl, David, Erik, Felix, Gunther, Henry, Iohann, Jacob, Klaus, Leon, Martin, Nicolas, Oscar, Patrick, Quentin, Rafael, Simon, Thomas, Ulfrich, Viktor, Walter, and Xavier. The brainless body can be Yorick, and Atreyu Prime can be called Zamiel. Because it means "god has heard". Welcome to the Reingeist family!
Yes it's kinda cheating. I said I won't give out letters as names. Alphabetically coded names are fair play.
With that out of the way, let's move on to the clusterfuck that will be today.
Reingeists A to H (first 8) will join the scientist on a "mass engineering skill training exercise", in which they will observe his actions and "acquire skills" necessary to join the assistants on their bow- and armor-assembling tasks. And to continue them at night when the assistants go to sleep. Put those rapid-learning brains of yours to good use, and don't look suspicious doing it! Remember you've got entire engineering practice courses up there in storage somewhere, they make for a great excuse when you suddenly start working eight times faster than the human next to you.
Reingeists I to P (next 8) will spend the day (and night) on general practice. Learn to quickly run and turn corners on hard floors and soft ground, learn to traverse water (get some security oversight on that if they go far outside), learn to take cover and hide efficiently with their bodies and learn what things do and don't work as cover now since they're not humanoid. Practice jumping, including up walls and into windows, check how high they can jump and from how high they can drop without taking damage. They're part cats, they should be fine, and we got spare parts.
Reingeists Q to X (final 8) will spend the day/night on equipment practice. Get some time at the shooting range. Shoot at each other with low-power rounds from conventional firearms, practice predicting the shots and dodging. Get some practice swords and see how fast they can develop any sort of technique from scratch, because again, not humanoid anymore. Spar. See if they can learn to interpose the sword into the path of bullets - practice swords will break of course, so get a hyperalloy one from the workshops.
Yorick Reingeist will spend time laying alone in a workshop somewhere. Because he has no brains. Alas. Poor Yorick.
Atreyu Prime, or "Zamiel", will spend the day not doing anything in particular, instead focusing intently on absorbing the information from all the clones of him doing useful stuff around the building. He'll be responsible for redistributing all accumulated training between all units tomorrow.
The molecular sim will be lonely, and assigned a relatively simple task. See how powerful an explosive can be made with our research into the fuel cell superfuel and phase-changing materials (the wear protection and non-newtonian ballistic dampening). The latter is to make the damn thing stable until it needs to explode, or perhaps mold it into particular shapes.
The scientist will get a headache organizing all of the above, and try to make sure that custom ammo production, including TOC grenades, is running at high enough rate to outfit the soldiers properly before testing.
He'll also try his hand at adapting some military gear for his creations. Various bandoliers and straps, to carry grenades and oh yeah, all the different equipment that he's trying to pile onto the poor guys. The guns fit okay, but the sword and the bow (and its arrows) are not an easy fit given the necessities of the design. (i.e. the radiator wings can't have stuff weighing them down, although the bow and its ammo should probably be relatively lightweight)
((I'm not going to bother with the list this time. Everything on it is done. Even if the training is not going to be fully done it's still as done as it will get. If Meshanblov doesn't blov us all up somehow, this is how we're going in.
Also I have too many names for the Reingeists. A/RT-ACCS or "Artax", ATREIU/"Atreyu", "Reingeist" in general and the individual names. I need to settle on something specific, and I'm having a hard time deciding against renaming the whole line to "Reingeist" because it sounds vaguely badass.))
edit: damn 
smileys.
My favourite smileys. And occasionally annoying. I use [nobbc] tags to deal with it, but your way works too.
And they know you are cheating. They aren't stupid, you know.
Group RAH stares assistants working with SAM bow. It would come across creepy if they weren't smartly asking stupid questions. When assistants finish one bow and leave to sleep, they start working, each building two more before morning.
Group RIP practices hard. Combined with practical experience from your soldier and intelligence and adaptibility from you they learn fast. A mock fight with blanks is very even, to nobody's suprise. The cannon is biggest sticking point and tail can too easily reveal one's position if not kept in mind. Reviewing few cat videos is enough to get how to move their body freely. Although cats do not have a cannon, armor and tail that big.
Group ROX sees benefit from SPU as seeing enemy and its weapon is enough to predict possible projectile trajectory area and visualize it. Rest is simply matter of staying out of that area. Likewise it permits splitting bullets in mid air as long as unit keeps attention on the weapon firing. But then again it is smarter to stay out of the bullet's way in first place. If you meant sword blocking, then that works. Hyperalloy takes bullets like a champ.
Smart dudes as they are they come up with a swordfighting technique that works for them. The base concept is "don't stay in one place like an idiot". Get behind the opponent, slash, and immediately move to new position. It's largely one handed technique. Sharp thin sword can cause lot of damage with one arm only.
Adn you... you focus on hard manual work. Updating production lines to produce armor, TOC grenades, SA core ammo and HATAK penetrators for both guns and SAM bow. You are pretty sure they can produce enough materiel to keep Atreyu armed, but it is more matter of how much they can carry to battlefield.
And that other stuff. Boring work.
