Bolded the part about adding dazzle effect to drones. It does seem a bit ambiguous whether it was actually accomplished or not.

Work on project Dazzleball, but see if it's possible to incorporate the hypnotic effects into either the drones or the suit.

I should also try to make the suit stealthy against things other than eyes, like matching ambient temperature and silencing any noises and being camouflaged in colours off the visible spectrum and stuff.

The dazzleball itself is rather simple thing; modified and strengthened holo projector with auto orientation and floaters to prevent it from sinking into enviroment. Most of the work goes for figuring out most effective pattern without being succumbed to it in mid development. Most hypnotic things known to man are dance of fire and flow of water. It all stems from certain types of movement, predictable in its maximum motion range, but unpredictable in smaller details. You work out a model that is really nice and soothing to stare at, but not quite the attention stealing level you need it to be.

Theoretically the effect could be included for camo cloak and holodrones. Camocloak has beneficial effect of being harder to see for user, ensuring he won't be so easily captived by it. However the hypnotic dance of light must be customized for the cloak because of its uncertain shape and different method of producing light and colors. Same goes for holodrone. Dazzleball is more about dancing light where as holodrone is shapes. Doable with minor effort.

Making the camo cloak match ambient temperature requires little work. It needs both circulatory system for cooling specific areas and more simpler wiring for selective heating. However cooling will be eventually overwhelmed by all the heat soldier and very systems of the cloak produce. Some kind of one time instant cooling cartridges must be included.

Say, can the holograms produce sounds in addition to images? That could solve my muteness problem.

Yes they can.

Can I track the locations of my drones and/or add their visual data to mine? That could help with my sniping.

Yes, the drone's visual feed goes directly to your brain.

Can the drones hold dazzleballs? That could also help with my sniping.

I think the drones already have a dazzleball setting. Though it wasn't in Aoshi's detailed notes and the quote seems very ambiguous.

All good here. Worried that he cannot win? A little. I haven't followed anyone else' research, and I hear whispers of things like dreammakers, mind control, and that all seeing eye, as well as invisibots and such. 10 clones is fine. 5 clones would be okay too, if that helps. I bet five would be enough. One might, if the psionics doesn't bog him down too much.

[Xantalos]

I'll leave it to Xantalos to figure out who gets what.

OH god the responsibility.

Uh... I have 12 guys including myself, right?
6 guys are stealth recon bodies. They get camo gear, combat armor that doesn't impede quick movement, the blowdarts, binoculars, knives, grenades of both kinds, the remote cameras ... could I include silenced pistols as well? If that's alright. These guys will be my 'on the ground' intel as well as spot teleportation team.
3 guys combat armor, camo gear, drones, mines, blowdarts, remote cameras, again silenced pistols if that's alright. These guys will lay traps and shit, assassinate via teleport, etc.
3 dudes camo gear, telescopes, sniper rifles, mines. Stay long-range, annoyingly accurate snipings.

How much of this does he discuss with the scientist?

[Demonic Spoon]

Ah, I missed keyword "both". So anti-materiel rifle, machine gun, small missiles and mortar. I take small missiles are along Pike, because it's much easier to carry many of those than larger meter long missiles. With conventional weapons the biggest limitation is number of munitions soldier or drones can realistically carry with them.

Are those built in arms/legs or carried normally?

Built-in. Spazyak can choose some normal weapons to carry if he likes. Though you should probably work with him on this in any case, as he seems more interested in the actual weapon load-outs than me. I'm willing to alter designs based on super-soldier input.

We are experiencing traditional miscommunication issues here.

I mentioned it as design possibility, where you could make the exoskeleton in a way that permits very easy change of parts, like legos are shaped so they connect each other easily. Which you did. But actual variable parts were never promised. Nor designed.

That would have been nice to know earlier so I could fix it, because I honestly thought Modular Design already included stuff for different environments. Why did you just add Modular Design to the queue, and not the environment stuff as well?

Link that reference for me, please. Cameras on visual range are given. Any reliable sound detection is harder because rotors make more noise up close than anything below, likewise wind can be loud. Especially if it's raining. Scent is useless up in air like is ground vibrations and detecion of air-currents. At least I don't think soldier can make use of air-currents detection from drones. And drone rotors are messing that up anyway. Active radar would have to be underside of drone to be useful, but that's where weapon/utility slot is. Could be partially useful. Lidar has same issue. Sonar too.

The super-senses reference wasn't as definite as I remembered.

Well they have to have some form of sensory capability while invisible? Plus, going back and looking at the researches, part of projected uses of the drones were target painting for the super-soldier.

Did it occur to you wonder what kind of roll spawned them? Spazy seem to get it.

Gimme gunships or gimme death.  More seriously, I'm glad I don't actually have anything riding on this competition besides personal pride and bragging rights, because my super-soldier and his drones are suckier than I thought.

Hmm, if it is only few, couple, handful of boosted quadcopter drones then maybe... Magic or mechanical science?

What the difference really? Difficult for me decide without being fully cognizant of the pros and cons.

[Sean Mirrsen]

We'll deal that as soon as we can get this confirmation round mess over.

That's okay.

What's wrong with SA-AP...? But let's call it APSA then. Sure, all pistol rounds are that.

Autocannon ammo selection. Having two separate ammo belts on both sides makes sense. So having four types is fine.

I'll go 30 per quiver, total 120. Doesn't get too crowded or heavy in there.

Spoiler: GM Note (click to show/hide)

APSA because it can be pronounced easier than SA-AP. Plus it sort of follows the conventional naming with APBC, APCR, APDS, APFSDS, APSE, etc.

Ok, so that's 120 arrows +60 bullets for Recon, and 60 arrows +100 cannon rounds for Support. 100 cannon rounds + 60 bullets for Assault. Sounds good.

Can I have the A-10 warthog, aka the BRRRRRRRRTTTTT gun, made so its simething I can carry normaly? Linkless Belt fed from a large magazine, think backpack full of 500 mm caliber shells , something to fire on a particularly tough target. Preferably the depleted uranium core shells.

The GAU-8 Avenger is the size of a small car, and produces five tons of thrust via recoil. Even if you can carry it, and enough ammo to fire it for more than a few seconds, you're going to need to dig yourself into the ground like an artillery piece in order to stay standing while firing.

He was only targeting the research facility. It would have been a setback, not outright removal of the opposition, even if he succeeded.

I've got quite the layered mix of tech, so I suppose it's up to Aoshima to say whether it all combines to act as a faraday cage or not.

Also I've no idea what you're talking about and whether it even concerns my guys, so there's that.

[AoshimaMichio]

.

Alright. Spaz handles weapon placements.

Modular Design was added because it gives the option to branch out. Making use of it is different matter. Well, no point crying over spilled coffee. He's fast, he's invisible, and he got a BFG plus eyes on the sky.

Best sensory capacity invisible drones would have is sonar and magnetoreception, because invisiblity disables all photon based detection systems which is all forms of electromagnetic radiation. Just have them fly high.

Magic requires a very small structure attached to drones to negate effects of mass. Science requires bigger engines and fuel tanks to produce required lift. Makes it also bigger target.

.

I'll say no for GAU-8 Avenger because you already have someting far better. It is called a particle cannon, and its ammo is much lighter. Point it at target, pull the trigger and watch as sonic boom ruptures eardrums of everybody around and instantaneously expanding plasma from armor explodes in a massibe fireball causing more collateral damage.

Those other childrens' guns are merely an intimidation factor when facing people. Spread your arms wide, open all compartments and guns sprout out of every limb. All those various rifles are cute, but really, if you want to make something dead, just point your BFG at it.

I'm gonna store all that ammo for assault rifles into your legs because you are running out of sensible space to hold them. Kinda robocop effect, but instead of pistol out comes a magazine. Weight is not a problem, but where you keep them all. The rate you are adding guns means you soon have to pull a wagon behind you loaded to brim with ammo boxes and more guns.

I'm gonna say those grenade launchers that have been moved on shoulders can fire all those various grenades and mini missiles for sake of simplicity.

Is this it then?

I think "Lightweight Monster Maker" refers to the mortar and its payload. Also... did I complete that? It was still in progress on my last turn. If it's roughly combat ready, I'll send it out with him, even if there's a kink or two I haven't worked out.

Also renegadelobster should have two pistols (one within reach of each set of arms). Your list doesn't have quantity, so I'm making sure. The loadout looks fine to me otherwise.

Yep, Lightweight Monster Maker is the mortar plus payload. It can fire regular mortar rounds too. You didn't fully complete it, the pheromone controlling part didn't make it, but otherwise it's good to go.

.50 cal conversion of Glock 21 is the pistol. Thanks for reminding about quantity.

Looks good to me. Only thing I see missing is a lightweight handheld mortar for longer range/harder targets. And as a way to launch the monster maker farther. Unless penguin wasn't able to get the mortar.

The launcher and payload were both listed as lightweight mm. I'll separate them for sake of readibility.

Also Aoshima stated in the OP that discussion via PMs is not a thing that you should do. Want to assassinate people, do it like everybody else.

And I forgot that the moment PMs started flying... Damn my poor memory.

God damn, if I win this it's going to be cheesy as fuck, just making all your 36 combat bodies commit suicide because you didn't put a freakin faraday cage around your skull.
Good luck to all the contestants, but mostly starwars.

Are those doctor brains in a braincase or in their own bodies?

Those brains are in cases. All remote bodies are simple test subjects.

For grenade launcher I suppose autofeeder is ok, but rifle have to be reloaded manually. Speaking of which, how many normal and EMP grenades is soldier carrying? And machinegun clips? Depending on packing it could carry rather many.

Uh... Dunno really. Hows 12 of each grenade type, 6 120-round machinegun magazines sound? 744 shoots.

Actually faraday cage doesn't protect from frequencies your thing is using.

So 3 doctor brains in braincases, 3 kenyan soldiers in their own bodies. And is that 2 test subjects in their own bodies? It's a parade of nightmares...

Sounds okayish. We'll go with that.

Magic requires a very small structure attached to drones to negate effects of mass. Science requires bigger engines and fuel tanks to produce required lift. Makes it also bigger target.

Magic seems objectively better. I don't really mind that it'll probably advance the company's space program by a century or so.
