Meta: Get a replacement for my missing arm that has been conveniently forgotten about.
It disappeared during turn 41. Huh. Neglected to bring it up until you could get a replacement, I see. ;D

Think of it like Sim City, except with rival mayors that seek to destroy your citizens by arming legions of homeless people and sending them to attack you.

I can do anything I want, as long as I accept the consequences.

"Dammit Derm!" - You, if I'm doing it right.

But of course.  GM makes a mistake not in your favor: question him about it (but don't argue!).  GM makes a mistake in your favor: never speak of it until it's in your advantage to do so.

Like, say, when the fancy bionic lab opens up :D


Meta: "Blood sacrifice, eh? GM, I request the locations of all organic life on this vessel."
Fantasy: To the shore!


Incidentally, who's JC? And the decks on the meta map are counted from the top, yes? Hence 3 and M3 being where the red dots are?

Ah, Jumbo Cat.........


It occurs to me that I am a salty sky dog, and therefore delicious.

(5) You manage to struggle free of the guards and sprint to a safe distance before tossing a knife at one! (5 + 1 = 6) The throwing knife zips through the air, slitting a guard's throat! It then travels around the group of guards like a boomerang. It (5) Slits another throat, (Three 6's in a row!) decapitates three more (!), (4) slices open the last guard's arm, and (2) narrowly misses a random bystander. It then flies back into your hand. Holy crap.

The GM said he could!

Meta: Ask GM how he feels about metagaming. Prepare to destroy anything that comes through the medbay door.
(...) "So, how do you feel about meta-gaming?"
"SEARCHING MEMORY BANKS FOR METAGAMING... MATCH FOUND. META-GAMING IS OCCASIONALLY A VITAL PART OF ROLL TO DODGE, AND HAS BEEN ACCEPTED AS A VIABLE STRATEGY. IF THIS REALITY WERE, IN FACT, ALSO A RTD, YOU COULD SAY THAT MENTAL ABILITIES IN THIS WORLD COULD AFFECT ACTIONS OF OTHER PLAYERS' CHARACTERS IN OUR CURRENT GAME OF RTD. NOW SHUT THE HELL UP MEATBAG."

Emphasis mine. ;D

So it turns out that dumping magma on skeletons is either a really bad idea or maybe like the best idea ever.

People pulling continuity on me...

Turn 80

META TURN:

To Deck M3! Maybe!

Goals
Find the keycard stations.

Current Soundtrack
Elevator Room

Actions
Meta: Get to the teleporter
(...) You fail to get to the teleporter. Which is good, because you should have been heading for the elevator.

You walk into the elevator.
RW: Go to elevator and hit Deck M3.
(...) You enter the elevator and mash the button for Deck M3, leaving John and Frederick behind on the main floor. The doors open on a familiar hallway. A HALLWAY THAT IS STILL FILLED WITH THOUSANDS OF MECHANICAL SPIDERS.
Meta: Get a replacement for my missing arm that has been conveniently forgotten about.
(...) Using your laser dagger, you remove Greco's one remaining limb and show it to the medi-bot in the cryogenics lab. It performs the same arm-grafting procedure it gave John, and you have a new arm!

New Bionic Enhancement Acquired: Bionic Arm
+1 to strength and hand-to-hand combat rolls with the right arm.

...Yes, that's your nose.
Meta: "Blood sacrifice, eh? GM, I request the locations of all organic life on this vessel."
(...)
"Blood sacrifice, eh? GM, I request the locations of all organic life on this vessel."
"KZZZZZZT"
"...GM?"
"KZZZZZZZZZZ- SIX ORGANIC LIFEFORMS ON THIS SHIP. ...HOW CAN THIS BE? THERE ARE 5 MEMBERS PER TEAM AND 932nm16i TEAMS CURRENTLY ON THIS VESSEL. THESE NUMBERS DO NOT ADD UP."
"Are you alright?"
"..."
A mechanical spider jumps on your face!
RW: Find some explosives.
(...) Unsurprisingly, you can't seem to find explosives around here.
