[Kashyyk]

That is a reasonable argument.

Who's up for a Production Line purely for producing Grenades and other consumables when we have a chance? (we never will, but that's beside the point)

[1] AIM (3 dice) + Hold 2 : Kashyyk

[Doomblade187]

If we design a PL now, we get advantage. Just saying. Cheaper, better, grenades for ALL our Marines.

[NAV]

I wonder if we could have a general marine equipment production line? Something that produces a mix of crossbows, pistols, nades, armour, etc. To equip basic squads an acceptable amount. Skiffs and vipers are made from many different components so it doesnt seem that far fetched to me.

This is certainly possible.

How about we go bronze armor, witch hunters, grenades, tower shields, pistols? Half shields with pistols and grenades, half witch hunters with grenades?

AIM
Progress: 16/27 (4,4)

Progress on the savant's system continues, and engineer's estimate they're well more than halfway to being able to produce working models of the design.


Spire Kasgyre's Production stands at
13(+10)/y Crystal, 26/115 Banked
17/y Ore, 24/85 banked
19/y Wood, 89/95 banked
10/y Silk, 37/50 banked

It is now the revision phase. You have 3 dice to spend.

Imperial Topaz will be shown during the production phase.

The Calm: The calm is a region of the aerosphere with almost no wind beyond fleeting turbulence, and absolutely no aetheric currents. It's frigidly cold, and filled with fine red 'snow' that barely moves. Traversing it with a conventional vessel is impossible due to the lack of energy to fuel the lift and trim crystals.
The Everstorm: As the name suggests, the everstorm is a region of the aerosphere dominated by an enormous and eternal thunderstorm. It's a chaotic region of raging winds and surging aetheric energy that manifests in terrible bursts of prismatic flame. No conventional vessel could hope to survive the nightmarish storm conditions.

Current Technology

[NAV]

Since we are far enough to use the prototype:

Prototype Bonus: Mist Manipulation: You can banish the mist using aetherics. Time will tell how useful this is.

What does this prototype actually mean?

[Draignean]

If you want to make another technology that's contingent on mist manipulation, you can do that now much more easily. By itself, however, it does basically nothing.

[Doomblade187]

I was hoping that at some point we would be able to do ground convoys between spires.

[Kashyyk]

I imagine that's a hard no, although AIM would be a good prerequisite otherwise.

Shield Wall tactic - A modification of defensive fire, this tactic involves marines equipped with Tower Shields, Mobile Covers or other as-yet-undesigned defence items working as a tight unit to cover each other and prevent an impenetrable wall to the enemy. Other marines can use this wall to advance and fire from behind in relative safety.

[Doomblade187]

Should we designate the specific use of grenades via sling in the tactic?
