A flash of pride filled the barely human brain of Ciaphus as the [i] Indomitable Spirit [/i] hummed to life. [b] “A satisfactory result” [/b] he said to no one, as his tentacles drove and swooped between the hundreds of different mechanisms. Unfortunately as was the fault of all machines spirits, none manufactured by Mechanicum hands could embody the true perfection of the machine god. Bringing defensive systems online along with the main nengine had increased the likelihood of the trains structural integrity remaining sound by 24.885%, but there were increasing damage reports and malfunction listings as some of the Flak cannons began to overheat or be destroyed by the overwhelming barrage of small arms fire. 

Directing a servitor to buy him a few seconds of time, Ciaphus noted the emergency blast doors still marched steadily towards closing, and the train could only begin to move once they were locked. Quickly he diverted a small percentage of processing power and routed top priority mission changes to several Mechanicum units that were still running off old protocol systems. Analyzing his clearance and security requirements, the cogitators of the rogue Mechanicum aspects were brought into the central mainframe of the [i]indomitable spirit[/i] and handed out tasks. Targeting one skitarii ranger that had lost its squad and become directionless, Ciaphus rapid fire sent top priority objectives to its central; processing unit.
