I'm gonna go to sleep for everyone else you all can move on without me so we can end this arc.

So are we going to have some down time during which Batsy can analyze his findings to develop a way to beat the Obras or reprogram them?

Yep we'll have some down time after the mission, though there's no way he'll be able to figure out how to reprogram the Obas units (since they're lightyears more advanced than any tech he's ever worked with, and that'd take away a major enemy unit type for later universes). The most he'll be able to get from the damaged chip is that it has a number of similarities to the technology on the Hub, and the final orders issued to the unit to secure Helgen and eliminate all its citizens.

Fair enough. What if he could identify a singular weakness in it based on the material the outer shell is made of?

Nah, the Ascendants did a good enough job designing them that they wouldn't leave any such glaring weak points. And if the units do have any weak points, I should think they'd need to recover a full, intact unit to discover it (which wouldn't be an easy task).

Hey guys, unfortunately I'll be out of town for a few days and won't be able to post much until Sunday. The Co-ops are in charge until I get back, and Demincia can temporarily control my characters should they be needed while I'm gone.

Bloody hell I'm done with that post. Yeah it is a nightmare sequence. I mention on the App that Elizabeth suffers from them quite badly.

Official OP Announcement

Postby Brusia » Tue Sep 12, 2017 11:31 am

Okay, so as activity seems to be pretty low lately (I'm guessing likely due in part to my absence last week, for which I apologize) I'll officially be ending the Skyrim arc on Friday so that we can move the story along. If you'd like to get a post up pertaining to the dragon attack, please do so before then. As discussed earlier, I'll be starting up a new IC once the Skyrim arc is completed, so that the link in the IC OP can be updated to link to the current OOC. I've also decided to designate that new IC as "Chapter 2" of Pandora's Box (mostly just so it'll be a little easier to distinguish between the two ICs). The events up to the end of Skyrim will be considered "Chapter 1" and I'll write up a synopsis of the major events so far to put in the OP so that new arrivals have an easier time learning about what's happened so far. As the RP carries on, I'll probably designate a new chapter every two or three universes we visit, and will update the synopsis accordingly (though in the future, there won't likely be a new IC for new chapters, each new chapter will just be marked IC'ly with a plot-related post for Captain Sheridan/Malzorg).

Once the new IC is up, we'll have some downtime on the Hub so the new characters can introduce themselves to the characters that were in Skyrim. I'll also be looking at the apps that have been pending review, and will do some recruitment to try and attract some fresh blood. After that, we'll be heading off to the Star Trek universe (speaking of which, the poll for which era we visit is still open, so if you haven't cast your vote feel free to stop by the discord and write your choice in the multiversal voting booth, or TG your choice to myself or a Co-op).

I've had hurricane troubles and just general low energy. My bad.

EDIT: Was real busy. I let that hurricane bitch suck me up so I could fight it on equal ground. Unfortunately, knives don't cut wind.

I can post, sure. I'm just hesitating a bit because I want to give others a chance to post, buuuut...I can post if it's okay.

I'm also reading about Line infantry and field artillery, so I've been distracted.

There's no rush to post or anything, I won't be moving things along until Friday. I know everyone's busy with college, life, and knife-fighting hurricanes so I don't want to rush things too much, but I also don't want activity to drop to the point where the RP just starts fading away (because I've definitely had that happen more than a few times before).

OP -

I had an idea that, like Elizabeth who had gone to get dragon scales, J.D. (being the 5-finger-discount guy that he is) was also going to try to take something from the dragon. But I was thinking more of the tech. Is that permissible, and if so, do you have any suggestions for what he could take? Thanks.
