The discussion in the mission thread has me wondering: can the Neuro amp get information from  "dead heads" that are revive capable?  It's a thing to test.

Yeah, they're very fun. I really wish I had put my -1 in medical instead of exotic so I could buy one. They seem to be the only way to have a chance to play the game stealthily and non-lethaly. Too bad there's no way to change your profession.

Hows about some radical, possibly lethal, expensive brain surgery?

[Radio Controlled]

Just to point out, last time I did that my character got killed for no good reason.

Then don't. Do what you want man, I was just offering.

[Caellath]

((Oh dear.  That sounds familiar.))

Yeah, just like the Ghostship's memories. Of course, that means the incoming contact is probably an unstoppable wall of doom like the one we saw.

[Xantalos]

Ooh, I wanna try that after I get back.

That... actually sounds very tempting. I know it's a bad idea to multiclass and especially in such a dangerous manner (probably ~25% chance of death), but I don't think I'd be able to resist the opportunity. I haven't been exactly smart while playing Flint.
Although I have to wonder what happens if I overshoot? It won't move all my points going to exotic, will it? We don't need another Xan. Or is it a surprise?

Ooh, I wanna try that after I get back.

Yeah, that's going to be fun.

EDIT: *sees turn* YES! Diplomacy finally worked! Thank you!

EDIT2: Wonder whether or not the UWM did any "tactical overloads" during the altered wars. Seems like a viable tactic. If you're overwhelmed and about to die, overload.

Eeeeeyup. I wonder if I'll even be able to do much. And if all else fails, liberal application of nukes should help.

I find it kind of funny that your first plan is "I'll shoot it with my gun!"

That's mostly cause I haven't had a decent chance to test my heavy laser for all it's worth. Besides, what else is there to do in that first turn but to get in position and charge a bonus? I suppose I could set up a few nukes already, but it that strategy worked very well then I'd imagine the UWM already has a few down there. And if laser is ineffective, then it's manip time.

I wonder if you'll be able to actually see what damage you do with that laser, though. Especially if the Altered attack as a wave of shifting flesh.

Finally, open new tinker project. Name pending.
Search for chemicals with strong adhesive properties. Then look for strong foaming agents that work with this product. I'm looking to create some sort of extremely sticky goop to restrain and detain civilians in a non-lethal way. Kinda like the 'containment foam' in Worm.

You don't need to think too hard on that pending name...
Good luck, by the way. Nonlethal weapons will go a long way towards both reducing cleanup costs and PR. Plus, it makes you feel better to know you're not killing people, you know?

[Caellath]

Dominika is a newbie space wizard and overuse of her room-warming abilities may end up in an overload since she already did a number on that hallway.

Idea right now is to try and slow down the horde so I can throw some nukes at them. Or, if enough get cut down (not very likely) I can close in and use the thermite to prevent them reusing that biomass.

Fun fact: before hitting 'post', I had named it 'containment foam', but decided against it cause it shouldn't be too similar, y'know?

[NAV]

I was planning on tinkering that exact same thing when the mission is over. Oh well, I have other ideas too.

[Tavik Toth]

Still have to finish and test out my Mech design.
