No worries! It happens though may need to revisit, I'm not in the hangar at all, basically working on maps in the Navigator's sanctum.

So sorry peeps, I’ve been a bit caught out here, a busy weekend in RL, also several games needing attention, (running and playing) and I’m supposed to be starting a Cyberpunk Red campaign at our club on Monday and I’m well behind on that. Everything seems to have come along at the same time.

I will be posting on all relevant threads here on Tuesday at the lasts, sooner if I can but I don’t want to rush this at such a crucial time.

No worries! It's actually nice to have a chance to interact outside of crisis. My character has no connection with anyone yet, and this is a chance to do it.

 RL comes first, besides which I'm a die-hard fan of CP2020 so knowing that someone is keeping the flame alive delights me. ^_^

Thanks for your patience people, we are back in business. The Captain has some new information to digest which might change things a little. In the meantime, please remind me if you are waiting on my response for something.

All senior officers rank 3+ will get the following


Spoiler text: (Highlight or hover over the text to view)
They warn that there is some sort of temporal distortion at work here, according to the imperium, Gelron disappeared twelve hundred years ago and reappeared last year but according to the people here on the ground they had ‘an event’ 180 years ago and have been here, around this star for all that time. Also ‘the event’ destroyed all people with psychic ability and all orbital facilities, except the manufactorum as well as corrupted cogitator memory banks and general and wide spread confusion and memory loss. No one really knows much of things before the event, even those still alive who lived through it have only vague and fuzzy memories.

After the event people tried to resume normal life though they were cut off from the Empire, the resumed their production and dispatching materials to the manufactorum which was still in orbit according to what they did know. Over time a shadow began to develop on the planet surface, insignificant at first but it grew and grew until it began to affect food production. Demands from the area to the north that was still producing food, grew and grew until they could no longer meet their own demands and they refused to send more, though they still met their industrial material quota. Which brings us to the current situation.

I wanted Gregory to conduct a little experiment while we're planetside. Is it possible to modify void distress beacons to emit a signal that only the Lament would be able to pick up, and have it provide accurate positional data from planetside? Was thinking if we could make orbital artillery targeting beacons that would essentially give us several "safe" orbital bombardments at the cost of having to hand-deliver the beacons.

While the point is to achieve optimal accuracy, a fun thing to consider for the targeting beacon would be to ruggedize it to the point it could survive deployment by mortar. At that point, the team potentially doesn't even have to get all that close to deploy it and makes retrieval of said team a bit easier even if it's a tad louder than infiltrating.

Don't forget that you have a Master of Whispers, though I think he's an NPC for the moment which is a shame as he put a shed load of work into it for the short time he was here.

My plan was to deploy it by missile, and eventually to embed some kind of dormancy-wakeup switch into it so that we can slip it somewhere in a dormant state, then broadcast a wide area signal to wake it up and start transmitting the "hit me" signal. Or we could deliver it by servo skull or cherubim...

In other news, I've been playing Inquisitor: Martyr lately and the urge to make a techpriest controlling a gaggle of servitors is very strong...

Re: Officers Mess, OOC.

That said, I think Mechanicus is probably the best at conveying the feel of the Admech. It's got the best music too. Now all it needs is Domitars and Thanatars...

Re: Officers Mess, OOC.

Gregory will put the assault company into the Aurochs. I think he should follow Searlait just so he can be a gun toting thug for her.

Regarding the ground teams, I know we have an astropath planet side but any vox equipment beyond the shuttle?
