A character can (and will) melee with only their fists. This is not a great option, but it is an option.

... I wonder if we can make a build based around this... Would need to find or make the right Subject, maybe give them some martial arts training... Could be interesting.

Well, what if we replace their arms with enhanced prosthetics once we have the technology or magic, or biology I guess...

Yes please.



@Knightwing64: On behalf of the Ordo ad Liberandum Mechanica, I invite you to join our enterprise. If you are willing, add your name to the bottom of this contract:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
If you are unwilling, please indicate this. Failure to respond within 11.5 hours will be taken as rejection.



@Doomblade: If Knightwing refuses, could we get a loan from you that looks like this:
Quote from: Loan Contract (preview)
The undersigned Order of the Midnight Redeemers agrees to immediately transfer ₹0.7 to the undersigned Ordo ad Liberandum Mechanica.
OaLM will repay this sum following the return of its first expedition.
The amount owed will accrue 5% interest per turn, plus a fixed ₹0.07 ((eg repaying after two turns would be 0.7+(2*5%*0.7)+(0.07)= 0.84, four turns would be 0.91)).
Should OaLM be unwilling or unable to repay this amount at the agreed upon deadline, OotMR may seize assets of equivalent value.
-(not signed yet)
-
Or something like that. Key point is we're looking for ₹0.7 at a reasonable interest rate.

We could buy the Precision Carbine and rent the axe from Kashyyk.

I'm happy to rent out the ✢Serrated Axe✢ for ₹0.1 per turn. If you want additional funds for equipment I'm also willing to loan you up to ₹0.5 at a Sharky rate (₹0.05 interest per turn with payment due in six turns).

Please pick one or more of the contracts below.

@Knightwing64: On behalf of the Ordo ad Liberandum Mechanica, I invite you to join our enterprise. If you are willing, add your name to the bottom of this contract:
[spoiler]
Quote from: Charter of the "Ordo ad Liberandum Mechanica"
We undersigned doctors do hereby charter the creation of the "Ordo ad Liberandum Mechanica" (henceforth referred to as "OaLM"). We agree to pursue this order in Good Faith, to maintain comradery with our fellow members, and to strive at all times to restore the Empire to its former mechanical glory.

Resources gained through OaLM's efforts are to be split as evenly as possible between the undersigned members.  In the event a gained resource cannot be split evenly, individual members of OaLM may reimburse the other members the difference to claim that particular resource.  Multiple members interested in a particular resource may bid on the item, with the proceeds split evenly among the remaining party members.  The OaLM may, through majority vote, elect to retain a percentage of the resources gained, which will then be used to advance the orders agenda.

Decisions made regarding the OaLM require a majority vote.  Alterations to the OaLM charter require a unanimous vote.  In the event a member is unreachable for a vote or otherwise missing for three (3) or more days, they are considered to have conceded their voting powers until their return.

A "Chairman" may be elected to make decisions on behalf of the OaLM, thus waiving the requirement of a majority vote.  This elected Chairman requires a unanimous vote to assume the position, must be a member of OaLM, and may be removed from their position at any time by any member of OaLM.

A member of OaLM may exit the order by announcing their resignation at the start of a turn, which then takes effect at the start of the following turn.  The OaLM will then select a sum of assets with which to provide the exiting member equal to their portion of the orders shares (1/NumberOfMembers).  In the event that such an amount is unable to be paid immediately, the OaLM is required to pay the amount at their first available convenience.

Any member of the order found to have acted in Poor Faith against his fellow members may be expelled from the order with a unanimous vote, barring the member in question. 

Acts of Poor Faith include, but are not limited to, the attempt or performance of the following against fellow members or their assets:
  • Murder
  • Theft
  • Willful deceit
  • Chicanery
  • Destruction and/or damage
  • Disparaging remarks regarding mechanical constructs.

Those undersigned agree to each contribute to this order the following:
  • One (1) Starter Moonlight Inoculation
  • ₹3.00

This pool of resources will be used to purchase and outfit a minimum of one (1) Moonlight Hunter, who shall be named Fylakas



Doctors of the Moonlight:
- Doctor Enato Pyrinikos, the Radiant.
- Doctor Rando Dude
- Doctor Digger Of the Vin clan, Seeker of the arcane
- Doctor Logan Antigonus, The Demon of the Arcana.

@Draignean question: does loot scale with the number of Hunters on an expedition? I'm guessing probably not, but it isn't clear.

It does not. This in conjunction with the per-hunter cost to embark means that, while it does have the best odds of survival, just flinging more bodies at the problem is not cost-effective after a certain point.

Also, a Discord question from @Kashyyk

Quote
Are people allowed to cancel their bid, if they are currently winning?

A: This is a good point, and one I had not thought of. Lazy Fair dictates that I offload the burden to you when possible. So...

If you cancel a winning bid, you need to either find someone willing to take over your bid, or pay 10% of the canceled bid as an auctioneer's fee.
