[OOC] Beware the rust! [robotic discovery/survival RP]

[Warbozz]

Just curious, but will this feast include lubricant? And if so, what type and year? EDIT: And is that last post with Daisy in located around/in the 'somewhat-more-friendly' base per chance?

@The Wanderer

As the Reaper found Daisy relatively quickly Ill assume that she awoke in base codename: Carbon, so the fight is taking place there, Id give the edge on this battle for Daisy´s favor but an friendly hand could turn the tide considerably. King124 is almost there but neither he or Ferug are very fast runners.

THIEF OF BAGDAD POWER TO COMPUTE You are looking at battle model ZZ5 "Blue Reaper" Highly specialized unit built to counter the threat of colossus class robots with a fraction of resources such takedowns would usually consume, designed to take out large targets with a single powerful leap. However it is a rushed design and horribly balanced, even minor damage to one of its four legs can render it practically immobile.

[The Wanderer]

Not positive, but I am going to put out there that Delta 779 is probably too advanced a model for Instaurabo to do much work on, other than circuitry and mechanical issues- and because he lacks a scanner, in his eyes <sensors> she might as well be human until she does something...inhuman.

[Warbozz]

Good start @BKburke! Could you also paste Jack´s CS into character section for my quick referencing purposes, thank you :) JACK, POWER TO COMPUTE You locate an powercell containing one day worth of extra energy, from another robot whose design is quite similar to yourself. Within the armory you discover some ammunition but weaponry itself is on par with your own, it seems that all heavy ordnance has been hauled to battlefields or looted... You locate the facility thou it is offline, with recovered tools you have parts you need to fix your leg but lack electronics for complete self appliance (You regain a bit of mobility thou)

[The Wanderer]

warbozz, would this repair facility be the same one that Instaurabo just left? If so his next post may affect Jack.

@The Wanderer

Lets say that it is, unless hes on carbon

[The Wanderer]

Instaurabo isn't there, no. I can't speak for Jack however.

[BKburke]

If I was at carbon than I would have stated that he heard the battle. Sorry for not specifying but I'm not at carbon. Also since the armory has ammunition and weapons on par with my own, would it be fine if I state that I grab that ammo and another pistol or rifle or something?

[Warbozz]

Yes, you can arm yourself further, to an extent of course, none of us are packmules here (except Ferug who could probably house an armory within himself) :D

[BKburke]

I was asking because he was designed to carry ammunition to other squads. So I thought that mighty allow me to carry more ammo than most infantry units to an extent. I do know that the more ammo, the more weight. I was just wondering.

[Warbozz]

Allright! It seems the other base (awesome codename ain´t it?) will be running for 3,2 hours INGAME TIME with all luxuries included (maintanance, basic repairs and diagnostics mainly) AND it is transmitting for all sentient robots in Zeta -001- area.

@BKburke

If your character sheet specifies it (it most certainly does) you are free to carry quite an load indeed :D

@Warbozz

Feel free to thank Instaurabo guys. >_>

[BKburke]

Wondering how to respond to it. If I respond with the code word, then I would also be broadcasting on that frequency. Then I could also have Jack use the repair facility which I'm sure would alert Instaurabo since it would then be in use instead of just on.

[Gentlemanvaultboy]

Do we all have radios built in? Is that just an assumption we should make because robots?

[BKburke]

Well I would suppose they all have something that would enable them to pick up frequencies. It would explain how they would be given new directives and such but it makes sense to ask.

[Warbozz]

@Gentlemanvaultboy

Basic assumption is that you all have such basic equipment as radio but it isn´t so widely used anymore except by robotic gangs that have banded together for survival, thou they use encrypted channels. Also it is a common joke among more veteran survivors how every time there´s a new pulse, newly awakened bots flood the radio channels :DDD

[Warbozz]

There is not much point YET in my latest post so don´t read too much into it :D I just could not resist.

@BKburke

You should be able to unencrypt the message without responding, you only need the codeword to decode the message. Its probably impossible for rogues to decode, but npc sentients probably can.

Just a little suggestion here, we've got 10+ characters running around; in my experience I think a posting order might be best to ensure nothing goes chaotic. Like a set list of who posts next, that way no one gets rushed, and things don't start going crazy.
