Was there any response to Elvrit's Awareness test to see what is being transported?

 

 

Otherwise, are we continuing to advance towards the Engineering section?

 

 

 

sorry, forgot to add that.  It looks like row upon row of food stores.

That at least matches with what we were expecting to be on board, so less likely for there to have been some subterfuge. 

 

 

Agreed. So, if there is nothing of value aboard, do we just kick our way into the Engine room, set it to blow and head back towards Phastus at top speed?

I would think largely servitor crews would make sense on support ships like this that should never see combat.

I guess yes.

 

The fluff has always been a bit inconstant as to when servitor crews (or servitor workforce in general) are used vs conscripted (shanghaied and what not) labour vs professional labour.

As you head aft towards the engineering spaces, the servitors do not directly respond until you are about 30 meters away, when they begin to move towards you.

 

In theory one or two of the smaller ones probably couldn't hurt you, but with thirty of them and four Ogryn-based servitors their numbers may matter.

 

Move towards us because they are now hostile (i.e. we tripped some safety protocol by approaching this close)? Or Move towards us because there path happens to go that way?

As a player, I'd wondered if it would be worth Hadrian trying a Tech-Use test to have the Servitors stand down, but I'm not sure that's worthwhile... However, I think Elvrit's inclination would be that any movement by them towards us would be enough to trigger a violent response...? 30m is still out of Charge range, but moving forward and firing his bolt pistol is possible.

 

Hmm, interesting... so it's just @Necronaut out of the three of us at the Engineerium to act before the Servitors then?

 

What do we think they'll do? I'm assuming they aren't really going to be armed for ranged combat, so I'm guessing it will be some sort of move towards us?

 

Elvrit has just moved up to be approx 26m away from them, so unless they've got a whopping base Move of at least 8m (unlikely) they still aren't in Charge range of him. But if they've got Move 4m or more they could probably just manage a Run to clip Engagement range…?

 

<gasps for breath>

 

Hi everyone, sorry I went missing, and very sorry for holding things up across multiple threads. I have returned from the abyssopelagic depths, as it were. I'm enjoying a little R&R currently and will work on getting caught up and back into the fray with my obligations here over the next couple of days.
