Guardian ANGEL Centralized Communications Center Platform

Using what we've learned from the "successes" of ORATION, a module has been designed and constructed to expand upon the currently minimal facilities of ANGEL Station. Planet-based facilities are built to house barracks for training Guardians and lesser astral-aware personnel in radio communications and prepare them for extended stays in the space-based facilities.

The Guardian ANGEL suite itself is to be manned by nonsensitive personnel while Guardians acclimate themselves slowly to whatever havoc the Astral realm is playing on their minds through radio frequencies. While most of them are trained to tune out the Astral Interference and eventually used as Orator Operators, the most resilient are trained to withstand the Astral's influence, listen to it, tracking down the source, and, if it (or something else past the veil) is in fact capable of communication, seeing if it replies to a measured and cautious response.

The Guardian ANGEL CCCP also acts as a central hub for all communications to and from Orators, using a large, powerful radio system to facilitate better, clearer communications between Orators and planetside comms. equipment. The equipment within the CCCP is powerful enough that it should allow a lighter radio to be used by ground forces.

With the relatively undefended Orators now in orbit, our advantage in the stars may see itself diminish as STOPs are forced to protect our extremely vulnerable satellites. In order to prevent a scenario where we stretch ourselves too thin we have created a new orbital military vessel - the HALT. The HALT is similar to it's parent STOP, save for the fact that it fires rods as opposed to boulders. The reduction in power requirement and ammunition size should allow some decrease in size while increasing ammo stores and fire rate. HALTs are not meant for orbital bombardment, and are instead designed solely with the goal of defending out new space-borne assets and supplementing the staying power of STOPs.

 Edison gun
After varius complaints from the troops on the horrible suppration capability of our gunsthe soultion that we chose was the simplest looking from their all, making a version of the tesla that fire continusly instead of bolts, to support this capabilty the original SynthOil battery was replaced with small and sheilded reator, the gun itself was increased in size with all part given the needed qualety or quantety increase to not be fried by the higher and sustanble power given from the reactor, finaly an isloating matirial was placed around the barrel to prevent arcs forming to allies close by.

By the neture of the gun it is no longer viable to be carried by a single troop (Or an unmonitored equipment for that case) and now apply more to a heavy mg role, to support that it was given a trailer to be carried on and a diffrent name, that was chosen as a stupid AC/DC pun that no one fixed before it was sent to manufacturing.

Throwing the Petrel back into the ring since it might fall into revision territory, since we already use RF Plasma cannons and, obviously, use an infantry-level plasma weapon.

Light Plasma Rifle "Petrel"

The Petrel takes the rapid-fire plasma cannon mechanisms of the Sol Invictus and condenses them into an infantry-tier firearm. The Petrel fires globs of contained plasma through a recombinated ceramo-metal barrel containing a trio of recombinated magnetic rails as opposed to the beams fired by the Albatross. A dense SynthOil cell can be inserted into the base of the stock to provide the juice necessary to fuel the weapon, with the rear weight counterbalanced by the cooling system and radiator along the barrel to prevent warping and overheating. While the gun may still overheat under sustained fire, a button on the weapon opens up forward-facing vents and flushes air through the system with a small, strong internal fan, briefly superheating the air in front of the Petrel and allowing the user to continue firing. A holographic sight and small, basic Identification/Targeting system similar to that used in the STOP allows more accurate fire at targets, but can be removed should the shooter prefer classic iron sights.

Also votebox. Voting for Satellite improvement so we can at least try to finish patching that hole instead of leaving it half-finished.

The Chorus adjustment functions by allowing Astral personnel to project an astral reflection directly through the astral and emplacing it through large distances of astral space and into distant or nearby objects. Training of our special forces means that such a  window can be directly attached to a camera and allowing its compromising effects to come into play. While it is just as dangerous to unshielded individuals, Electronic Equipment with a CHORUS projection sing loudly to the Enemy forces like moths to a flame, sing loudly to the Enemy forces like moths to a flame.

 Electrical equipment compromised by CHROUS Technique is forced through a metaphysical existence change to emit the same hazardous emissions that the original has, and can be targeted just like the previous iteration. This emission has always been made for compromising visual systems such as cameras, but audio systems are also possibly vulnerable...


Chorus. Chorus.
CHORUS
CHORUSCHORUSCHORUS
Chorus is a functional adjustment of the BlackWell Technique, where the reflection window mirror of the AStral Realm is inducted through the astral consciousness of the operator rather than using a shimmer-air-locus, and it is projected onto traditional-functional systems to act as a vector for elimination.

This adjustment allows a upper-SEEM or Bioforged Individual to CHORUS CHORUS CHORUS an echo of fire terror --

CHORUS Variant BlackWell Technique is an adjustment to the BlackWell Technique standard for upper-level agents intended to eliminate enemy personnel from range through the usage of the astral realm.

Function of Eight. The function of eight is the function by which something happens. The Function of Eight causes the implicit creation of itself in patterns and sequences, and to summarize an excitingly complex interaction between Function of Eight and Ontologically copied Functions of Eight, we can utilize the Function of Eight and its natural ability to encrypt, compress and digitize information to its "unique" astral format to make our satellites functional without human intervention while leveraging our astral superiority.

The distance in the astral dimension works differently. By utilizing deep, heart-felt connections in the home-line, we can create connections of eight eight eighteighteighteighteighteight heartfelt Transceivers systems linked together by the Astral in unison, Seven in orbit, one in the hearts of the Aratam, to listen, to learn, and to hold it open. These systems are much smaller, as they do not require life support besides the eight days of maintenance per function cycle to sustain predictable patterns. In comparison to ORATION, they are effectively remotely operated satellites that are as functional as the previously designed ORATION system.

In the field, Their presence glows in the stars to all those who can perceive the intangible, even from so far away. Eight Eight Eight Transceiver systems can be communicated with modified radio equipment used by even low-level astrally aware with ease, and can be keyed using "keys" generated by the ground transceiver to allow mundane equipment to function with the Relays. To an outside viewer, the communication equipment radio waves do not ever meet in such a way as to be cognizable, but with the digital compression systems, only a single packet of information has to arrive intact for the entire transmission to recursively regenerate using the curious property that space-bound equipment has with the replication of eight in heuristically predictable patterns.

Typically, communications are relayed from ground forces to CENTRAL COMMAND, however, communication with non-military applications are distinctly possible as Merethians do not have the astrally aware personnel to intercept/listen, and can be utilized by non military staff for other purposes.

Dissenting Harmony

A pairing of stimulant and narcotic, each targeted to more strongly affect different regions of the brain, the Dissenting Harmony cocktail induces a deliberate trance in  those who use it. This trance leaves much of the mind in a dream state, but with a sensory bridge into the dream burning bright. Communication between trancers and the Astrally positive is an incredible thing to behold, as the tranced appear to be verbally bonded to the Astral presence of the speaker. The potential of linked minds is incredible, but in these early stages too exploratory to achieve in a combat setting.

Where all this research has borne fruit is in the Oration network. After a number of proof-of-concept sattelites with handlers were successful of joining the infonet (handlers have been safely decommissioned with moderate brain regeneration), trancers are now approved as solo operators. Large scale use of Dissonnant Harmony will enable Astrally active personnel to requisition and link command structures on the fly, giving orders and recieving processed data and reports from troops without enduring the full mental strain of thinking all the thoughts this requires in one mind.

Non-astral personnel are able to recieve and understand orders from a trancer in a command structure, and any headaches can be treated with existing medications. Long term study of the effects of enhanced communication are ongoing.

Revision: Cyclops Tank
Successor in role to the Ettin as a heavy direct fire battery, the Cyclops is not a descendant of the outdated Hydra branch of our tanks. The Cyclops carries on this mission from with the more recent Glaive frame as a base. The armament of the Cyclops is truly a wonder to behold, a full-scale plasma cannon mounted directly atop the reactor in a significantly more flush electromagnetic turret than the Hydra/Ettin style cage. A Cyclops is able to devote more of its internal capacity to fuel stores, as it requires no other ammunition, and boast a significantly improved operating duration between re-armings than previous tanks.

Revision: Fennec Wartruck

PRIVATEER OUTDATED
MAGPIE OVERRATED
LONG HAVE WE WAITED
FENNEC ACTIVATED

For far too long, there has been almost no native Aratamite production of cars and trucks outside of bespoke garages. Was this for lack of ingenuity, or capability? No! Our original trade agreement with Cannala forbid domestic production, in an outrageous display of imperialism. Grumble as we might, we were forced to be the used car lot of the world, Cannala's clunker dump, for fear of interruption in our ore supply during this interminable war with Mereth. Cannala, however, has recently undergone some... rennovation, as a number of officials had unfortunate heart implosions as is the way of things. Fearful insistence of drug habits abound, as also is the way of things. Ultimately, the new regime has agreed to renegotiate, and allow Aratamite production of cars and trucks to no longer be under the thumb of Ore importation levies.

The Fennec is a nuclear workhorse, able to be outfitted for a variety of roles. The Fennec-F is a stripped down flatbed suitable to replace decrepid Privateer One-Tonne-and-Half-Again Truckes. The Fennec-I is a partially enclosed and armored infantry transport, with crennelations suitable for the mounting of Albatross and Tesla weapons, able to carry a platoon into combat and withstand initial barrages of enemy fire with recombinated plate, as well as ammo boxes able to keep an army fighting. The Fennec-A replaces the Privateer fleet hauling Red Skies platforms and provides mobile artillery support more reliably and in greater volume. The Fennec-C acts as a mobile command center, with long-range radio capability. The Fennec-M is a more rare model outfitted with Atlas-type medical stasis units, collecting the downed and dying for second and third chances.

All Fennec variants run on GMBP reactors behind the cab, have electric motors, and large recombinated rubber tires. The rest is, y'know, a truck. Good speed, very reliable, and a damn fine example of Aratam engineering.

I want the wartruck, but moreso when we have a turn where the design doesn't need a fix to function close to partway of what was intended. Let's keep the wartruck in mind for the future for sure though.
