Overview

I love that film. Mystery Men is definitely a guilty pleasure of mine.

Don't ever sweat that, squire, we have a 'real-life takes precedence' policy around here. Although if you could fill out the Spleen donation waiver, that would be just great.

Obadiah: Between himself, Varne, Hagga, and the dog, they were carving up the hybrids at a pretty rapid pace. Obadiah kept boring into the crowd, his arm working Silence like a piston, just gutting everything in front of him. The thump of the far door slamming down to seal the big bastard out of the room was not lost on him, either, and that was important because of the warnings blasting in his ear about the station coming apart. While working the blade, he blink-clicked his helmet's vox open. +Brothers! How far are we from an airlock? Might be time for a quick exit.+

Sorry, busy day around both home and office.

*Checks notes* Frowns. Stop reading my homework, son.

Is he last before the Abominant kicks the door in?

Correct, sir.

@Mazer Rackham for reference is it Obidiah's turn in Brawlhalla (see what I did there?)? I think that may have gotten lost in the flood of posts concerning rats fleeing to/from proverbial ships a page back in the IC.

Kraggan didn't ask for the Earth, just traded his starting gear for a Fallen Magos Power Axe.

I can confirm all Acquisitions were done correctly. Normal BC Game TPK's: Players: 'I cast fireball!' GM: 'You roll perils and get a bloodthirster.' OR; Players: ' I have connived and betrayed you all! Mwahahah!' Also Other Players: 'No, me! Mwahahah!' My BC Game TPK's: Players: 'Please sir, can we have some more (stuffs)?' GM: 'So you have chosen death....'

I believe I did my acquisitions correctly (IB = 3: ML, kraks, frags), but regardless I would quite like to cycle through a few different heavy weapons as they become available. I'm the meantime I don't mind too much have a single shot.

Well, the magazine rack was obviously just lying around, until an Executioner came in... and thought *hmm, I could make a trophy rack out of this...* Maybe IC< you glance at Hagga's bold display and think 'hmm, familiar, but I can't place it...'

Single ML with Extended Magazine (adds 25% shots but specifies round up) would take you from Clip 1 to 2. Then taking the Shot Selector would allow 3 Clips, bringing you up to 6 missiles before needing a reload, and freely able to choose between Frag and Krak (and maybe later something more rare)? Which is honestly where it should have been in the first place... Edit: Did he have any spare levels on the starting Acquisition of the ML to add any Upgrades? Edit edit: Actually, ML is only Rare, and you would get +10 for the Single Item, so I think you probably could include both of those Upgrades?

The Proteus ML has a clip of 5 going by the model, so let's just say I lost the magazine and manually feed each missile into the chamber

Xerxes: +Dredge acknowledges. Compliance underway.+ GM: We will assume that Xerxes and his cabal manage to extricate themselves from Brimstone successfully.

Technically a single barrel boom tube is also a viable device for a shot selector - left or right hand? ;)

If you want some real tech heresy - a twin linked missile launcher has a clip size of 2 and is therefore a valid target for the fire selector upgrade... :p

Xerxes: An invisible fire, a path of ash where once stood mighty edifices and heat without source the harbinger of its approach. Power unlike any other but to reach out was to burn. His previous conclusions were proven true for the Tyrant had indeed left them to this fate, so rich a prize as the ore would not have been so quickly abandoned and so many of the mutants not overlooked by the hunting parties. Haggas failure at the control station one more hint that a more distant hand guided these events for where else would a bomb of such complexity have been crafted in this forsaken and primative outpost. A thought crossed his mind that this might not simply be the work of the xenos but of abominable intelligence, the feeling of familiarity far more terrifying than any meaningless alien script. But record must be attempted, "Give me your comm beads", it was perhaps fortunate that he had not yet converted his underlings to servitors and he could only hope that the rest had lingered long enough at the forge to obey his final instructions. A command from his console spread out across the system as he withdrew, ++Abandon+Withdraw+Collect+Isolate+Quarantine+Flee++. Scorched earth protocol from the days of the Martian wars to evacuate material assets under threat of subversion, burn comms and excape by choice of by force... some part of Xerxes almost hoped that such a task would fail for scraps of this code-poison were an anathema to the craft, but they could not run forever. Fixed frequency, high band conversion, Xerxes quickly spliced beads into the control rooms auditory interface as speakers lit up with binaric cant and things far worse. "Remove me from this place, to the hangar now. Clear the path". Even as he moved away his work continued locking the signal to his datapad, audio only without interpretation or analysis, a wall against the fire. "Xerxes to Dredge, isolate comms, intrusion threat extremis". One bridge from this island in the void and the flames would consume it as readily as any other.

Well looking at the Chaos Havocs as were, the ML always looked like it had a jury-rigged magazine, (as did some of the Marine ones) and the Soundstrike is actually only single-shot, fed by a ready magazine/w loading arm on the backpack. This is something we can look at, but would be either that or a jump pack, when the opportunity comes.

Crux'As: GM: Cheers, no problem, play to continue no negative impacts.
