With even more questions than answers you exit Elyadien’s room. Seems like destiny doesn’t let you catch a break.

The Micerian regiments weren’t only sent to stop prisoner riotings as they believed. There where heretical cults who apparently praised some kind of daemon god. Worst thing was that you couldn’t do much but wait. If you told anyone about this they would wonder where did you get such sensible information and probably interrogate you to death…

“All personnel destined to deploy on Plinia Vesus come to the armory to be given a rebreather. Emperor Protects” Said a semi mechanical voice over the vox system.

Almost everybody stopped what they were doing and headed to the armory as ordered. There were even soldiers not totally clothed or with shaving cream and unfinished beards walking.

Only two days until the destination was reached, only two days…

You were really scared of the war that waited on that planet. There could be daemons like the Red Hook but by the thousands, maybe even more. Your body shuddered in fear, something that you forgot you could do at all.

Unable to do anything else you joined the stream of soldiers and walked to receive the equipment necessary to survive on the surface of the soon to be doomed planet. Unlike the regular guardsman the rebreather that you got was better and more sophisticated. You didn’t know if it was because of your AdMech status or because of your position as the escort of one of the Commissars. Apathy involved your mind and at the end it didn’t mattered to you. You doubted that a better breathing mask would be the thing that would save you.

You were sure that Plinia Vesus was the place where you would die.

Time to be a nerd.

With the rebreather stored in your pouch you walk now towards the Machine's cult cathedral. You hope that with your newly gained respect among the few surviving skitarius on the ship they would let you access to their more sacred and powerful weaponry and bionics.

Once inside the techpriests living there greet you with awe. Haxmas still seems to be a little bit shaky from observing the daemon and Johane wears a black cog on her neck as a symbol of mourning for all the dead Skitarius and specially for the lost of Deagront.

After descending you can still see the damage that your battle led on the walls. Most of it has already been repaired but there are still scorching marks on some corners.

"Skitarii Heracor. What brings you there?" Asks a totally armoured Skitarii towering over you. His name was unknown to you but you knew he was a well known member among them.

"I would like to become stronger, I request access to the cogitators and blueprints to be able to build better gear for my persona." There was pride in your voice. He might be strong and powerful but considered you one of theirs, there was nothing to be afraid of.

"You talk like a true warrior. Everybody wants to become stronger after battling..." He raised one of his claws and moved it towards his chest. "You have my permission, but remember to considerate the machine spirits. Skitarius like us don't only have to deal with the myriad of enemies but also the anger of badly treated machines."

>B: Build one of those weapons: Ogryn Ripper Gun

The machine accepted your orders and started buzzing, not far away a set of mechanical arms started gathering the materials and building on their own. You started chanting the litanies of gratefulness towards the generous machine and soon a chorus of three servitors was behind you empowering your voice.

After a hour of singing, applying sacred oils and doing methodical procedures the weapon was done. It was simple yet powerful. Crude and simple but undoubtedly created by the marvellous human intellect.

You tried to grab the gun and it at first seemed way too heavy for you. If it weren't because of your bionic arm you wouldn't even be able to raise it at all. This weapon was obviously built for Ogryns and not regular humans...why did you even built it?
Even if the weapon was way too heavy and not suited for your hands you took it to the shooting grounds. It gathered a few odd looks from the other practising members and one of them even burst in laughter.

>B: Build one of those weapons: Sniper rifle

You return somewhat ashamed, not because of the laughter of the others but because you created a machine spirit who would now have no real purpose. You place with difficulty the heavy shotgun and ready the machine to work on reverse and try to recycle its components as best as it can.

Accessing your memory banks you try to remember what weapons would suit you best and which ones have you seen in action so far. You remember the Eldar infiltrate using a strange sniper rifle and destroying the health powering bodies that the Red Hook carried in its back with deadly precision.

Your bionics eyes could help you aim and locate enemies, besides the further you were from the battle the safer you would be. A sniper rifle would not be such a bad idea it seemed.

Once again you had to sang and help with rituals while creating the weapon but this time it took longer. Obviously the sniper rifle was a way far more sophisticated weapon and thus needed more work.

Back to the shooting grounds you once again got stinky eyes and a few humiliating laughs. Those Skitarius used mid distance or close weapons and weren't used to see someone practising with such weaponry.

You moved the bulls eyes as further as you could and then looked at the scope. The objective was obviously way closer but the center of it was still far. Your breathing and own heart pulse made aiming hard as the weapon couldn't stay quiet even after you locked the servos of your legs to make them stay as still as possible.

After you pulled the trigger the gun's recoil punched you hard on your chest. After a few groaning you looked at the bulleye and saw that while hitting the objective the bullet didn't got as close as you would have desired.

>>37306399
Indeed but remember that the protagonist only has 40 hours left and he still needs to sleep and such. Besides a Sniper rifle is not the best weapon in the middle of a battlefield. He is still working for the Commissar Oihan and she's the kind of girl who goes onto the first line of the battle.

>>37306438

Those were trap options.

>>37306454
I'm pretty sure that's pretty heretical. Besides the protagonist only knows a few things about weaponry. He cannot create a new weapon by himself.

>>37306480
fine, add a switch to the shotgun, so we can set up if it'S auto, or burst, or semi.
and not add the grenadelauncher

>>37306480
Psh.
We are heretical. A closet heretic that is. We can try, though I suppose we should learn more about weaponry first so it doesn't blow up in our face.

>>37306477
No, they aren't trap options. I'm just saying that in my opinion bringing a sniper rifle to the middle of a battlefield isn't the most clever thing having in mind that we gotta stay close and protect Oihan.

>>37306523
What about close range weapons then? Can we search for power scythes or something?

>>37306542
Yeah, there was also a section in the database about close range weaponry.

I'm gonna add new options because I'm getting confused about what to do:

>C: Try to learn about weapon schematics and workings.

Testing weapons by trial and error and wasting materials on building just to destroy them shortly after was borderline heretical. Most forges had to use long processing lines to create weapons and this Cruiser was blessed with a automatic machine that while it took longer to build managed to create any weapon with only one techpriest around and you misused it not only once but twice.

You placed the sniper rifle in the recycling receptaculum and some robotic arms started breaking it apart soon after. It was heartbreaking to see such a powerful and useful tool to be killed. You looked at your chest and there was a bruise on it from the recoil of the weapon, a punishment from the machine spirit.

It would be a better idea to plug yourself on the database and learn about the weapons instead of building them. Once inside the machine a list with all the options appeared.

B: Read a specific chapter: Chain Weapons, Slug Weapons, Laser Weapons.

>ACCESING CHAPTER 2 OF CLOSE COMBAT WEAPONRY INFORMATIO:

-//CHAIN WEAPONS: Chain weaponry is any kind of weapon that makes use of a engine to impulse a chain fitted with saw ended edges. It can be fitted into many frames and forms being the most common one the Chainsword.

When creating a chain weapon we have to be sure that the revving is stable enough to not destabilize the hand of the wielder. It has to be light enough to be able to be wielded with one hand and strong enough to pierce armour.

The engine can be of multiple patterns being the three most common types promethium, electrical and plasma:

>1-Promethium engines:
They create as a by-product toxic fumes and cannot work on void. They are the most easily repairable and stable ones by far. It's the most common type of engine found on this kind of weapons.

>2-Miniature Electricity generatoriums:
Can be fitted and adapted to work on chainswords or other chain weaponry. The most silent and least powerful ones but able to work on almost any enviroment including void. They can be fitted with a manual power handle that can charge the batteries while not battling.

>3-Plasma engines:
The most exotic and powerful ones. They not only give incredible power to the chain weapon but also heat the blades of the saw due to the massive heat generated by the weapon. Like any plasma weapon it's machine spirit is really strong and can become angered exploding violently.
(1/2)

>>37307300

Not all the saws of the chain weapons are the same. While undistinguishable on the battlefield if inspected on a safe environment once can perceive that the form and even sharpness of the weapons vary from model to model:

>1-Triangle or sharp angle formed edges:
Used to cut down materials like wood when sharp and used to destroy hard rocky structures when dull. It isn't barely used outside construction working.

>2-Curved saws:
Work more effectively on organic materiel. If it is dull it will crush bones instead, some rough riders and bike squads prefer dull saws.

>3-Exotics:
It isn't unknown to encounter chain weapons models who have unique personalised saws who fit uniquely its owner.

As said before there are many frame were the chain can be suited. Here are some examples.

>1: Swords: By far the most common and used frame. Easy to maintain and use.

>2: Axes: While the form of the Axe multiplies the kinetic force and turns the weapon into something more devastating it leaves less space for the saw and the engine. They are harder to handle than the swords.

>3: Scythes: Improvement to the ChainAxe. Offers longer reach but needs the two hands to be wielded. Users without proper training are prone to hurting themselves.

>>37307315

Also FUCK YEAH! NOVICE HERETEK QUEST!

>>37307339
Those weren't options, just kinds of weapons. Later I'll give the chance of building your own weapons with the parts I describe.

>>37307360
Oh

Given where we're going, I think a prometheum engine, curved bladed word would be best. Though I would like to see triangular edges in the bionics for general applications.

>ACCESING CHAPTER 2 OF SHOOTING WEAPONRY INFORMATIO:

-//SLUG WEAPONS: Slug weaponry uses a solid propellant to impulse the slug towards the direction it has been aimed at. One of the Humanities most ancient kind of weapon and originated from the minds of old terrans. They can be suited with different kinds of ammunitions. Most slug weapons have "Automatic Varieties that make them shoot while the trigger is still pushed"

Slug weapons fall under those categories:

>Pistols:
Easy to handle and use. Shoot small calibre bullets. Not very powerful but cheap and easy to maintain. Mid-short range. They have automatic varieties.

>Shotguns:
Powerful on a close range. Shoot a cone of pellets stored inside a shell. High recoil and easy to build. They have automatic varieties.

>Machine guns:
Shoot a stream of bullets. Best used on a mid range. They can be switched to work on automatic, semi-automatic and single shoot manners. Most common weapon employed by the PDFs.

>Sniper Rifles:
Designed to be used at a long distance. Shoots a single slug with a lot of force and strength. Best used if inclined or lying on the ground. While automatic varieties exists those are not common.

Ammunition types:

>Acid:
Contains small corrosive acid on its interior and are specially powerful both against organic materials and machine workings.
>Fire:
Contain magnesium and other inflammable chemicals that produce a exothermic energy outburst when impacting. Specially useful against organic enemies and vegetable life.
>Penetrative:
Drill tipped bullets that have a more concentrated load of propellant. They are designed to hole and pierce armour but aren't as powerful against organic matter.
>Hollow point:
Cheapest kind of anti personnel bullets. Those hollow bullets rip open inside the objective and shred once inside.

Accessories:

>Stock:
Reduces spread. Those are totally necessary on machine guns and sniper rifles.
>Scope:
Adds accuracy. Almost all sniper rifles have a scope.

>>37307478
>prometheum engine, curved bladed word would be best
Those are the most common type of chainsword in the imperium for a reason.

Search for >Twin-linked
See what happens.

>>37307599
i like this idea. only an inkling of what it means though

>>37307641
Twin-linked means it's basically two weapons combined to one, usually at the loss of accuracy for firepower.

Like stormbolter for example.
If we can get a twin-linked laspistol, that's a really good sidearm and powerful gift for any commissar.

Twin linking the lasgun seemed like a good idea. It could share the same power pack limiting the shoots per charge to half but as you learned from the Informatio Database laser weapons have no recoil or spread.

You entered your beloved lasgun inside the scanner and looked at its entrails with curiosity and affection. While it was true that it was pretty new and barely shoot it was still in pristine condition, it's machine spirit happy and pleased.

Twin linking it should have been done since the moment of creation. Adding a younger laser chamber implies adding another machine spirit. This might make the more recent lasgun shoot less or even don't shoot at all from the dominance of the other one. If this weapon were created from the first instant twin linked this would have been solved since the two machine spirits would have been already merged since creation.

Only time and rituals will turn both machine spirits into one and turn it into its full potential. Same happens with every modification added on it from now on. Changing a weapon was a slow and delicate procedure.

After a hour of work you designed a good and non intrusive way to add the second laser into the main one and all the wiring needed to make them both grab their energy from the power pack.

Two hours later the weapon was done. You grabbed it and placed your hands on both parts. The older one was warmer and buzzed lightly while the newer one was cold and silent. It was obvious to you that the original pa abrts were angry while the newer ones where scared.

>C: Learn more about weapons or bionics

You let your two lasguns to communicate on their own placing the newly fused weapon on your back. There were two ways of letting their respective machine spirits fuse and find peace. One was passively letting them talk without using the machine, after a while the all-logic minded spirits would end understanding that working together was the most beneficial thing and they would synch, this process was safe and easy to do but it was unknown how much time it would take. The other version was a ritual not very different to some Imperial marrying ceremonies were each gun empties a power pack by itself, then they are taken care for and slowly making them shoot together. You heard that doing the second ritual was better if the machine spirits talked first on their own for some time.

While they chatted on their mute and secret language you logged in the database again and searched for the bionics library.

Torso section does'nt have many jumping out at me here. we're under time pressure so we can't go shopping spree with our guts..

Whats the sheathed sword bionic worth since we already installed it. I guess that covers my want of CQC better then any kind of regular sword could and upgrade choices sound interesting...

Snipers work in teams or something so if we do go sniper route, we'd have someone to watch our back.

I'd rather a more all rounded approach honestly, our twin link lasgun is gonna be brutal on headshots and might even give a traitor marine a run for his armors money if we can amp up the power of the shot somehow. Big might though. But if we're running into chaos marines we have serious shit going down. Just one of those fuckers has great odds on killing us I'd wager.

I'd like to improve combat options more then being a one trick pony here. We already seem to have a healthy spread of versatile options as is though. Guess we'll find out as the infodump continues.

>>37309300
How about we update our Poor Vision Adaptation and Sheathed sword and could I get some sort of estimate on time costs for the Micro-void Shield and Emergency Miniature power Generatorium?

Sorry for taking long on the bionic dumping. I had to do something else.

>>37309572
it's ALLLLLLLLLL good buddy. take your time.

>>37309530
sounds like a solid plan

>>37309530
Pretty sure the butcher beats a standard chaos marine in levels of killingness, but one on one yeah we're screwed.

>>37309539
How about we take a look at the entire list first? Might be able to make our legs double plus good, speed kills.

>>37309572
No problem its fine OP.

>>37309611
Yeah, for some reason I thought it was the entire list.

>>37309648
+ Deep fall compensators ( ALREADY INSTALLED )
All of my fucking yes! now we just need a portal gun and some abominable intelligences or whatever AI are called

Have in mind that all those bionics are only the ones that the cathedral of this ship can create. If the protagonist manages to survive into another AdMech outpost and befriends them he could check their library and find new bionics that aren't on this list

>>37309611
In my opinion The Butcher could kill a space marine in melee combat because demon stuff but the guy was pretty dumb since all he did was advance and barely had means of distance combat. In a 1vs1 combat with a marine who is at a distance an has a bolter the marine would win.

>>37309704
Those are just some metallic legs that can compensate some long jumps, unlike the Portal 2 boots that can survive falls from even 4 kilometres.

>>37309704
Add in Reactive springs and magnetic soles and we can go anywhere.

>>37309738
don't worry I wasn't serious

>>37309648
>Look up Magnetic Soles and Reactive Springs

I'm not too keen on long jump thrusters, we're gonna be on a lava world which means high heat, if those things overheat even without experimental status that could be all kinds of bad melting our insides or exploding painfully.

+ Substitute Organs
+ Subdermally Armor ( LOCKED )
+ Poor Vision Adaptation ( ALREADY INSTALLED - CAN BE UPDATED )
+ Scope/Lens Link
+ X-RAY visibility spectrum ( ALREADY INSTALLED - CAN BE UPDATED )
+ HEAT visibility spectrum

I would go with these! Or maybe some upgrades to our mechatendrites. Anyways, we should ask about unlocking the armor. That would increase our survivability substantially.

>>37309911
Wouldn't Heat vision be next to useless on a lava planet?

>>37310003
yes

>>37309738
Can we ask for more information about some of these?

>>37309911
I don't think they'll just unlock it for us if we ask nicely I'm afraid. And hacking would take some time and comes with risks. Even with the downfall of a demon on our list of good deeds mechanicus adeptus doesn't give many fucks about it.

The other options I can see being useful except for HEAT vision. we're going for lava world which means all those thermal readings will be all over our fucking eyes and just confuse us if used. Also Sheathed Sword info pls? I kinda want to know about what we can upgrade to.

Infodumps be huge. they see us trucking. piles of infoshit dumping.

+ Scope/Lens Link
Good but not a priority and potentially confusing to use without practise and we're on a schedule
+ X-RAY visibility spectrum ( ALREADY INSTALLED - CAN BE UPDATED )
Never hurts if we got the time to get this too

Literally gonna be nigh useless on a volcano planet, plus the heat of a battle. Much better suited to assassin roles, so no to this

Heracor's body right now Generates 200 energy points

>MILITARY VOX CASTER: Consumes 5 points
>NEURAL PORTS: Consumes 5 points when using.
>PORTABLE SOLAR GENERATORIUM: Generates 25 points when in sunlight and 15 when in artificial light
>MILITARY RETINAL LENSES: Consume 10 points when using Night Vision and 15 when using X-Rays
>UPGRADED MECHADENDRITES: Consume 3 points each with a total of 18 points.
>COMPLEMENTARY CEREBRAL COGITATII: Consume 15 points when using the auto-aim
>SHEATHED GAS-EJECTED BLADE: Consume 5 points to sheathe and unsheathe each time.
>PISTON POWERED LEGS: Consume 1 point for every feet of fall

I will implement this power/consumption generation mechanic so you guys don't powergame and turn him into a bionic filled freak. If Heracor gets without energy he doesn't dies but gets shut-down for a few minutes. Here are what consume the other bionics

>>Subchapter 1.1 Cranium
+ Metallic Alloy Cranium: NO CONSUMPTION

>>Subchapter 1.2 Eyes
+ Scope/Lens Link: Consumes 20 points when in use, 30 if combined with HEAT, X-RAY, Night Vision and another 5 if combined with auto-aim
+ HEAT visibility spectrum: Consumes 10 points

>>Subchapter 1.3 Ears
+ Wider audible spectrum: Consumes 5 points when in use

>>Subchapter 1.5 Mouth
+ Metallic alloy denture: NO CONSUMPTION

>>Subchapter 2.1 Chest
+ Emergency Miniature power Generatorium: +60 Power Generation
+ Substitute Organs NO CONSUMPTION

>>Subchapter 2.2 Back
+ Flexible Non-rigid spine NO CONSUMPTION

>>Subchapter 3.1 Arms
+ Clawed fingers NO CONSUMPTION
+ Electoos +30 Energy Generation. 60 energy consumption when unleashed
+ Micro-void Shield. 75 energy comsumption

>Chapter 4: Legs
+ Magnetic soles: 5 energy consumption when using
+ Reactive Springs: 15 energy consumption when using

>Chapter 4: Others
+ Long jump thrusters: 50 energy consumption

>>37310069

>Chapter 1: Torso

>>Subchapter 1.2 Chest
+ Emergency Miniature power Generatorium
Volcano planet means lots of smog, aka not so much sunlight. Our solar panels aren't going to get much use so an alternate generator would be useful, especially if we wind up lost and trapped underground.
+ Substitute Organs
The less squishy parts the better though this proceedure may take a while? If it doesn't encroach on our remaining time too much then I think this would be great to get
+ Subdermally Armor ( LOCKED )
Should ask a skitarius about unlocking this though we probably just can't get it now.

>>Subchapter 1.2 Back
+ 6 Mechadendrites ( MAX SAFE CAPACITY REACHED )
Can we upgrade the strength of these at all? Or find some more attachments to plonk on the end perhaps?
+ Flexible Non-rigid spine
Sounds incredibly useful. Allows us to use our bionic legs at higher strengths and reduces the risk of mechadendrites breaking our back

>>37310214

>Chapter 1: Torso

>>Subchapter 1.3 Arms
+ Clawed fingers
Not massive priority, might also make repairing or other dexterous tasks more difficult
+ Electoos for those wondering, electoos are like metallic filaments that can carry electricity and unleash it
Quote from another source "Electoos are metallic strips bonded sub-dermally to enable Tech-priests to channel limited amounts of energy; an extreme example are the renowned Electro-priests, who turn themselves into crackling founts of electricity in battle. Electoos enable the user to directly absorb electricity from equipment or power sources and then expel it, with sometimes devastating results."
Recharge capabilties again sound super useful and if we can go the massive electric discharge route that'd be awesome too. Might be able to make last ditch efforts to kill big things by grabbing a generator and hugging them. I reckon we should grab these.
+ Micro-void Shield.
Sounds great
+ Bionic arm (1 OF 2 ALREADY CONVERTED )
The more metal the better
+ Sheathed sword ( CAN BE UPGRADED )
Upgrading our surprise shanker sounds like a very good idea.

>>37310201
>200
>those power costs
oh god time to never use bionics

>>37310201
Fair enuff QM. still I don't see us hitting a powerfuckup using these wisely.

>>37310236
Easy friend most of those are active powercosts which means we won't always use them. We'll only fuck ourselves over if we try to use EVERYTHING at once more or less. Plus we can aquire backup generator for even more power use/emergency backups

>>37310201
How about a final destination vote or something?
Everyone just posting another list seems a bit counter intuitive.

If someone has doubts about the bionics just say the name and I'll describe them as best as I can.

>>37309760
Reactive springs can be used to jump but also to get tense the spring and apply its force in a kick. Those two are a good combo!

>>37310167
Totally, they can also be shaped into fangs or something.

>>37310260
This is 40k, we will use everything at once, especially considering we are venturing down to a volcano planet filled with dem daemons

So then guys, what's the consensus for the bionics?

Guys, gimme a min, I'm making a spreadsheet to work this out

>>37310270
Definately want the spring jump and magfeet then. thats just too versatile to pass up in combat advantages. At least this stuff if anything.

After we're done with this maybe a good nap and some training time. Heracor will have alot of new toys and almost zero experience in using them properly. Plus a little cardio never hurt even a mech cult nerd (unless he's gone full metal but we ain't there yet)

>>37310201
>+ Electoos +30 Energy Generation. 60 energy consumption when unleashed
Is that +30 power generation passively or only when we grab something electrical?

>>37310069
>Does this increase resolution/clarity of sight, or allow us to see through thick smoke better or what exactly?
Better definition of sight when using night vision and also some clarify when smoke and such. It isn't perfect but its better than nothing.

>X-RAY visibility spectrum ( ALREADY INSTALLED - CAN BE UPDATED )
If Updated we will be able to see what's behind thicker walls and detect hidden weapons.

>Does this make us more susceptible to sonic attacks or simply loud noises? If not, never hurts if we got the time to get this too.
It lets you hear further and even frequencies that the baseline human ear cannot hear. It makes you susceptible to dog whistles and other kind of sonic weaponry.

>>37310214
>Can we upgrade the strength of these at all? Or find some more attachments to plonk on the end perhaps?
They can be upgraded yes but not by those Techpriests. Gotta find other tougher guys with tougher toys.

>>37310382
When grabbing something electrical.

>>37310201
Definitely take both leg upgrades.

Substitute organs would be good as well the rest of our time should be spent on master our weapons and making some better armor.

>>37310380
Remember that the planet is also low gravity. Careful with the spring legs.

Alrighty, here's a summary: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1jqXuB6J3BNIAhAAo_TFE5UPCVSMH50-SuW7Szrouzmo/edit?usp=sharing

>>37310429
What time limitations are theere involved with grabbing all the body enhancement bionics like organs and spine?

If we upgrade them now does it make it more or less difficult to upgrade them later when a better version becomes available?

Seems like the general consensus is we upgrade the FUCK out of ourselves and then spend the remainder of our time in training and rest to get ready for the mission ahead of us.

I can be down for this. we just need to hammer out the time cost of our wanted bionic upgrades.

>ETA: 35 hours

Should I also write how much time does every bionic take into implantation? If they aren't in the same body part they can be installed at the same time. Heracor would also take some time of rehab after the surgery but I guess he won't have that privilege this time.

>>37310621
that's fiddlekins?

Can we assume that the emergency generator will work reliably? I mean, we might not want to rely on it all the time.

>>37310869
>emergency generator
I'd assume limited fuel or overheating as a side effect.

It's an emergency generator, it's not supposed to be constantly active.

>>37310867
Isn't he though? Wonder how his Techpriest is.

QM is just messing with us. If we get the best stuff then we don't get time to train. He's messing with us for good.

>Sheathed sword has two updates: It consumes 5 points to sheathe and another five to unsheathe, updating it doesn't changes those energy costs.

>>Sheathed sword chain update: makes the arm bulkier but turns the blade into a chainsword. If it is given promethium engine it doesn't consumes energy but depends on the liquid fuel. Electrical engine consumes 10 energy points and plasma engine 20.

>>Sheathed sword electro update: Changes the blade with a superconductive metallic one. Can apply electricity onto its hits and act reversely, stab a machine and steal its energy.

>>37310919
>+ Substitute Organs: 2 hours per organ
What remaining natural organs do we have? How difficult is it to procure the chems? Can we carry around a month's worth on us from the get go?

>>37311111
Would swapping around the columns a bit so that "picks" and "discussion" columns were separate from the hard info be all right?

>>37311222
Forgot to add:
>>Sheathed sword electro update: Changes the blade with a superconductive metallic one. Can apply electricity onto its hits and act reversely, stab a machine and steal its energy. 10 energy applying the energy. 10 energy per turn regained if stabbing a machine BUT THIS IS HERESY FELLAS!

>>37311262
Duplicate sheet, rearrange it and then we can see if it's easier to read. I have no issue with overhauls so long as they are reversible/don't impair use whilst they happen

>>37311280
So is the sword heresy or is the drain heresy?
Cause an electro sword as a holdout is pretty bitchin.

>>37311280
pshh
Those were probably corrupted chaos machines. `it would be a mercy to those insane machine spirits.

>>37311222
>>37311280
Bionic arm energy consumption and times involved?

Also, electro sword should have some awesome synergy with electoo implants. Probably not as damaging as a chain blade, but then again it's meant to be our low-profile surprise weapon and we can grab a chainsword for regular times.

So my vote is on the electro blade

>>37311246
Remaining organs:
>Brain
>Lungs
>Heart
>Digestive system
>Reproductive system
>Some Bones
>Kidneys

Guys is pretty much untouched inside.

>>37311304
Well I was saying it as a half joke but I guess that stealing energy from a chaos or xenos machine could lead to bad reputation among the AdMech if he's caught doing it.

>>37311340
Adding another bionic arm would take 12 hours and for gaming sake I won't make them consume energy. Also the techpriest can cut your arm and substitute it with a bionic one and work on the other arm at the same time.

>>37311417
What do we know about conditions directly after we (land)?

>>37311246
Forgot to answer some of your questions sorry
>How difficult is it to procure the chems?
They are given by the AdMech before the operation. If he loses them he will suffer pain but won't die. He will have to find a AdMech laboratory that can create those meds.

>Can we carry around a month's worth on us from the get go?
Yeah, he has a big pouch and those drugs aren't heavy or big.

>>37311525
The Database informs of how much time it will take to install everything and the rehab procedures needed. So he already knows it.

>>37311346
What's the time taken to upgrade the following?
-Poor Vision Adaptation (Can be updated)
-X-RAY visibility spectrum (Can be updated)
-Sheathed sword

>>37311640
>Poor Vision Adaptation: It's a firmware update. Takes 2 hours but Heracor can leave the update on a second plane and do other stuff. He cannot use the bionics while they are updating.
>X-RAY visibility spectrum (Can be updated): Same has Poor Vision but this takes 3 hours.

>Sheathed sword: Both updates take 4 hours.

Does everyone agree on the current Y/N listings?

>>37311867
Yeah they'll work but we still need to sleep. Also melee weapon and some armor.

So, current rundown I think is as follows:
>Scope/Lens Link
Yes, useful fast and has no turnover time, plus can be added in with other eye aug simultaneously
>Poor Vision Adaptation Update
No reason not to
>X-RAY visibility spectrum Update
No reason not to
>Wider audible spectrum
>Clawed fingers
May as well, never know when they come in handy
>Electoos
Massive damage potential, also handy for emergency energy generation. Could probably do some neat tricks with it too beyond the immediately obvious
>Micro-void Shield
This is something we can presumably turn on and off, good to have in emergencies since we can afford the power requirements.
>Magnetic soles
Wallwalking away!

Also upgrade the sheathed blade. I think the current consensus is for an electro one as per >>37311340
Haven't seen any arguments for chain.

Total Time: 21 hours of operation assuming no overlap in delays
-Will feel spasm in his arms for four days aprox.
-Will feel dizzy for 72 hours
-Firmware update, can run in background, 2 and 3 hours of no vision and xray implants during it

Metal dentures: Y/N?
We can probably afford to squeeze them in, but what use actually are they?
Additional 2.5 hours, no rehab

>>37312037
metal teeth for biting

>>37312037
If its close enough to bite we can stab it with electro blade plus we need time for melee weapon and armor crafting.

>N

>>37312037
On that note, would grabbing a heart replacement be a good idea in light of the electoo implants? Don't wanna give ourselves a heart attack trying to fry someone.

>>37312037
No, we can use our time for more substantial upgrades.

>>37312059
He has no lower jaw thought. The guy in the first post is Heracor.

>>37312139
So does the denture implants GIVE him a jaw again? Or does he just get fancy metal upper teeth?

>>37312139
so a whole lower jaw too?

>>37312157
He has a speaker as a lower jaw. It can be switched with a piston powered jaw that could rip of the face of a ork but he would become.

>>37312219
*become mute

>>37312219
Hmm, now that DOES sound mighty tempting...
Still, I think we're better use the jaw operation time to get other stuff.

>become mute
Oh, nevermind then. Being able to talk is nice.


Thoughts on >>37312101 anyone?

>>37312289
We still need to make our armor, synch our twingun and get a melee weapon, honestly electroos is a last resort/power siphon for us.

>>37312334
Alrighty, then I think we're in agreement with >>37312037 and no jaw?

>>37312363
Sure.

>>37312363
yup.

>>37312334
While Heracor is on the operating room he could instruct the machine to build meanwhile, the twinlas is syncing slowly also.

>>37312363
Ok. Should I write info about armour too?

>>37312429
Yes please we need armor and a chainsword.

>>37312429
>write info about armour too?
Yes please.

As for building in the meantime, did we settle on the melee weapon in the end?
I personally think:
+chainsword
Nice and simple, ready to use
+Curved blades
Best for standard use
+Promethium
Readily available fuel source, powerful and stable. I reckon trying for plasma is asking for trouble.

>>37312517
Also, can we make a flamer and mount it on a mechadendrite? An alternative to las fire might be handy

>>37312517
Yup simple blade for a simple tech priest, we can improve/make a new one once we figure it out ourselves.

Working on the armour info now.

>>37312504
The chain weapon goes like this.

Sword: 1 hour of work
Axe: 2 hours
Scythe: 5 hours

Curved blades: 1 hour of work
Spike blade: 1 hour of work.

Promethium engine: 2 hours
Electrical engine: 2 hours
Plasma engine: 4 hours.

Sword + Curved Blades + Promethium engine = 4 hours.

>>37312546
He still has 4 free dendrites. This operation would stack with the Torso ones and take 1,5 hours. We can make the chainsword and the flamer get their fuel from the same deposit.

>>37312640
So to clarify, are those 4hours on the chainsword occurring WHILST we're under the knife or are we looking at 25hours accounted for now?

Similarly, does the flamer upgrade occur during or alongside?

>>37312754
I think that the chainsword (and armour) can be done at the same time as the operation, but that the flamer addition needs to be part of the operation, adding to it's time.

Yes, Heracor can give instructions to the building machine so it builds while he's being modified. The flamer update is part of his bionics but since dendrites are long it can be modified without interrupting the other techpriests and thus stacks with the Torso operation times.

>>37312914

I'm assuming that skitarii is more suited to augmented soldiers, and (maybe) people might start suspecting us of being abnormal if we go carapace?

>>37312914
Tough choice jeeze.

>>37313045
I doubt that but it shows we're developing a taste for combat and preparing accordingly. I'm not sure the 20 energy it will generate is worth while though.

I kinda wanna say carapace because better defense and we're going into a full warzone and will have to keep the commissar safe. She's a huge fan of close combat so the thicker armor might save our skin.

Dammit QM why did you make so many good choices?

>>37313162

-He will be sedated so his resting will be covered.
-Will feel spasm in his arms for four days aprox.
-Will feel dizzy for 72 hours
-Firmware update, can run in background, 2 and 3 hours of no vision and xray implants during it.

Is this your last choice? It will leave him with 14 hours to train.

Yes.

>>37313243
yes.

>>37313243
>Fuck yes

>>37313243
I guess it'll have to do. With all our extra bionics I hope the skitarri armor's upgrades are going to help.

BUT MUH CARAPACE ARMOR!

>>37313217
Carapace is made from high quality ceramite. A material who isn't heat conductor and thus isn't almost affected by energy weapons.

Skitarii armour is made from metal and has a small generator. Somewhat like a crude and weak power armor of sorts.

>>37313349
Oihan wears carapace armour. You will be able to look at her ceramite covered booty don't worry.

>>37313376
I thought you didn't want us to romance your GF insert

>>37313354
>Wait a second...
We will generate 220 units of energy, and when we use augments we use units of power.. but, do we have any ability to store power, up to a maximum.
Or am I just totally misunderstanding the system?

>>37313354
Now thats useful to know. Carapace for heavy combat/high grade warfare (Like if we ever want to fuck with a god damn chaos marine)

Skitarii will make for a decent all round medium armor for general combat and bolsters our energy count slightly.

Flak armors for morons or stealthing shit up. I don't see a point to using it unless we HAVE to.

>>37313501
Just say no to cardboard

>>37313416
The only things she shares with my gf is vaguely the name. Try to romanticise her if you dare I wouldn't

>>37313434
It is 200 units of energy, and goes up to +275 ( 20 from the armour + 25 from sunlight + 30 from electoos + indeterminate number from energy stealing sword )

It will always be on those 200 units, using the bionics consume those points but when they aren't used anymore the energy is recovered. Unless many bionics are used at once there is no risk of reaching 0 points.

>>37313570
Stop sending me mixed messages!
>Operation: death by Snu-Snu is a go-go!

>>37313618
Let's not get too close to the commissar who can execute us on the spot for almost anything if she's pissed off okay? Besides this is probably temporary.

>>37313678
that was mostly a joke. hell does Heracor (I always wanna call him Hektor) have a sex drive?

>>37313858
He installed it last week
DOHOHOHOHO

>>37313880
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

>>37313858
He still ahs his full reproductive set, so maybe. I'm sure he could download some subroutine to optimize the experience.

>>37313899
like the karma sutra?

QM proving he knows how to have a good time!

Oh man what kind of insane tech heresy would be possible if you manipulated the Waaagh field? Sure it demands being near orks but holy shit the possible stuff!

"PRAISE THE OMNISSIAH" You say loud and proudly with the rest of the Skitarius as you explain to them everything you want to be installed on you. They join your praises because they will get a new true member among them.

The machine chimed as the instructions were inserted one by one. You were guided to the main operation room and shortly surrounded by white robed techpriests. One of them grabbed your still fleshy arm and inserted a small needle on it, a blue-ish semitransparent liquid started flowing from a hanging bag directly to your veins. Your body started getting numb and heavier than usual, your surroundings started becoming blurrier and the last thing you managed to see and hear was a mechanical drilling sound heading towards your auditory channels.

On your dreams you found yourself on a amalgam of all the places you visited so far. Architecturally speaking they made no sense at all..In front of you there was a massive glass window that you recognise from the Cruiser you were actually travelling into, on the other side of the wall in showed the cold and empty void but after surrounding it I discovered that on the other side there was the door to Elyadien's room. When I got closer it opened to me.

She was inside looking like a bizarre mix of her Urmo persona and her true self. Eldar armour mixing with her techpriest disguise in impossible ways.

"Do not be afraid of dying Heracor. You have already done good enough in this universe"

Her voice was mixed too, a mixture between her crystalline Eldar tone and her faked human one.

"Do not be afraid of dying Heracor. Dying without fear is one of the gifts that the sons of Terra still posses."

She started becoming greyer until she became dust and disappeared in a flash of wind. You didn't knew if that Elyadien was just part of your imagination and memories or if the Xeno really invaded your mind when it was on its weakest moment.

>>37314216
If we can fully understand and even improve upon DAoT science, We could be close enough to the old ones who made the orks to create our own WAAAGH!!!! type field.
Even if we did learn the prerequisites to do that, We have more importaint things to do.

>>37314364
'Good enough'?
Heracor's just getting started, universe.

>>37314364
She's in our head! Hide the mechanical porn!

>>37314469
From her viewpoint he has done a lot of good because statistically speaking not a lot of humans in WH40k kill daemons and help Eldar. She's comparing him with all the humanity since for her were all the same bunch of monkeys.

But yeah, he's just getting started!

>>37314577
I'm not sure if good thing or bad if we've won the eldars favor...

Either way she's our only true ally against this heresy even if we don't like it. Just hope to gods we wont get killed horribly by the inquisition when they arrive after this clusterfuck.

>Inb4 they immediately suspect us since it might be obvious to the observant we silently but cleverly spotted and dealt with this shit.

>>37314577
Yeah.
I got that.
No offense but you didn't need to explain her viewpoint, it was just a fun comment.

Also, did you just confirm that she did indeed enter our mind just then?

>>37314666
>won the eldars favor...
Favour? More like attention.

And either way, winning the eldar's favour just means being the last one to get backstabbed

>>37314666
>gods
Kindly kill yourself heretic scum

>>37314708
Spoiler:WE ARE THE HERETEKS

Maybe. we seem like a pretty nice guy. Yeah totally trustworthy. Hey where'd the screwdriver go?

>>37314744
We killed a daemon, and are buddy buddy with some guardsmen
Do you want to have to kill them?
Its the "gods" or them

After that the lights flickered and the room was suddenly covered by multiple copies of the small and unnamed slave that got into your room. You felt guilty for him since he did provide you with vital information even scared to death and you still let him die on the now almost depopulated slums. They all were sobbing softly but the multiplication of their voices made the crying dig deep into your ears and your conscience.

You closed your lenses in a attempt of making him disappear, he wasn't real after all and if you couldn't see them they wouldn't be there any more...right?

A hot and pressing sensation started burning the skin of your hips and torso, you opened your eyes scared and in front of you was the great daemonic Butcher. The hooks of his arms started strangling your body while he raised his knifes to end you. From the hooks of his back hanged the mutilated bodies of everybody you appreciated, Oihan, The Guardsmen trio, The drill pilot... Worst part was that they were still alive, yelling in pain and accusing you from letting this happen.

You were awakened just before his blades ended you. Your heartbeat going like crazy and all your limbs, both bionic and biologic shaking from fear.

Your internal clock said that the 21 hours were over. Your body was still a little bit numb and you were barely able to walk. Your stomachs begs for food as the only subsistence it has received during all this time has been serum.

Next to you await your new armour and weapons along with a box filled with medication drugs and their instructions.

Looking yourself at the mirror you see the newly installed bionics. There is a small plug behind your right ear were the Scope/Lens link cable goes and your new fingers have clawed tips that retract at your command or when closing the fist to form a punch.

You activate your sword and your forearm opens in two as the sword ejects with a small gas ejection. The sword then buzzes and gets slightly cyan as it starts conducting electricity around it. A small half sphere moves from your elbow to the centre of your newly opened forearm, the sphere starts vibrating and spinning and then a invisible yet distorting void shield forms around it.

Happy with the results you take your first drugs and sluggishly exit the room.

For those wondering how is a void shield. Look at the picture of the two titans. There are some bullets impacting against some sort of force field. That force field is the void shield.

>>37315025
This will be my last reply for today. I think that now is a good moment to end it for now. Also I'm not sure if the pic of above are Imperial Titans or Knights, can anyone answer me?

I'll try to answer questions now and thanks for playing today!

>>37315084
Thanks for running, I think that's a titan. Too big for a knight.

(Though those marines are small compared to civies so... who knows?)

>>37315084
Well while we got jackshit done plot wise we've finally settled our new gear, and will move onto leveling up next thread. TRAINING HO!

Good run good run.

>>37315084
Titans I think but artists janked up the scale with tiny marines.

So How much time do we owe Oihan now? Also how much training time can we get in between minmaxing our gear and talking to our allies?

>>37315158
You know, for an upgrade time with THAT MANY OPTIONS we really did pretty well getting it done AND with a minimal amount of shouting

>>37315025
>void shield
I'm guessing you mean refractor field since, you know, void shields tend to be rather big.

>>37315206
Yeah but we kept a level head and we knew exactly what the future held for us. Most of the shit storms begin because of no forward knowledge on whats to come so everyone wants to pursue their pet project thinking it'll be the best.

Instead we had a clear idea of whats coming and had a number of useful options and picked the best ones given our current constraints. Twas fucking refreshing not having to deal with full blown shit flinging.

>>37315283
We still kicked of with a sniper and an ogryn ripper gun mind you.

>>37314675
I have not confirmed that she's really Elyadien and not Heracor's imagination. Believe what you desire~

>>37315158
Yeah well this is more of a rewarding episode because you guys killed the Butcher and still had a few days left.

>>37315185
She requires ten hours of training and four of work every day but she also gave us free time after dealing with the daemon so I guess that not a lot of time. Even if we stop owing her time we will keep our asses close to her since thats our job.

>>37315234
Well I knew that void shields are a thing that are installed in ships and rather big things and thats why is called "Micro" but I didn't knew anything about refractor shields. If the players don't mind it being incorrectly called I don't see why should I change it.

>>37315283
It was.

>>37315340
Meh the sniper is good for when we're going to have to hold a position sans commissar, and I bet we'll win the friendship of an Ogryn on this planet shortly.

>>37315388
We already disassembled the guns. Also, we have no sniper proficiency and limited time to gain it. It wasn't a sensible choice, it was simply the runner up of the 'pick the biggest gun' options

I'm total shit to describe stuff shortly. Can someone help me with the thread description for sup/tg/?

>>37315388
You forget how accurate Heracor is with his (now) twin-linked lasgun. He's fucking good.

>>37315479
"In which Heracor got his insides replaced and made some new toys" Is my vote!

>>37315450
Ok fair enough, still This'd be good for us to remember in the future.

>>37315479
In which Heracor Augments himself and makes new gear for the inevitable shit storm planets side.

>>37315513
True. frickin aimbot.

Shit...I forgot to write that Heracor dresses himself before heading out.

Next chapter is gonna start with a confused and drugged naked techpriest!

>>37315565
>>37315513
I'm gonna make a mix of those.

>>37315665
Pffffhahaha. I love it. thats good. I like that. Its too funny to just skip.

>>37315665
Seems like him being confused is a running thing.

Well, the refractor field is a bit more common device to be had in the hands of an enginseer part of a ranking officer's retinue.

Personal void-shields however? They exist, but they generally are used by elite enforcers of the Adeptus Arbites and certain Space Marine chapters to my knowledge.

Imperial Guard does have portable void shield generators, but these are intended to shield trenches and the only image I found of one was the size of a bunker.

There's also the issue that if something touches void shield when it's activated, it cuts apart anything that touches it, so depending how long it takes to activate it, it can be used as a power-weapon.
