he can get that with his own money. After the job is completed
I just realized. 10grand split six ways?
So, we can just plop ourselves down anywhere?
Thovren tapped his cybernetic fingers on the table in a soft, repetitive pattern. Still staring at the hologram and focusing on all the small details he could, trying to find clues in its movements he could exploit, where its retaliation fire was coming from on its body. Even trying to find a jack port. "Well there are two problems with an EMP dart." He finally nad reluctantly tore his gaze away from the hologram and looked to the swordsman. "The first being that if this drone can dodge gunfire, there is simply no way it will let itself be hit by a slower moving projectile like your dart." His fingers continued their private tattoo on the tables surface. "The second issue can go either way. This is a prototype, which menas its relatively untested in extreme conditions and defence. But it is still very advanced. So it either has sophisticated enough wiring to withstand a common EMP charge and disperse the energy with ease." he reasoned and tilted his head slightly. "Or the more likely scenario is that Koch Huang has put no form of insulation or electrical surge protection into the machine save from the most basic and manditory for now. They probably want to ensure that no one could do just as your suggesting because hitting it with a sizable EM pulse will at best, singe the wiring and possibly damage some system or mobility." He let that sink for a few seconds before going to the final extreme. "Or at worst it will blow the cortex completely.... Personally I would rather not risk it. If I can catch it while it is in whatever sort of monitering chamber they keep it in when its not being tested that would be safest, but not likely. This thing probably doesn't have to recharge all to often. But We can't shoot it, and I wont risk overloading an untested machine."

When the troll mentioned shooting the drone his head sharply turned to regard him. To him that was simply heretical. "We will not be destroying this piece." he said firmly. "it could probably dodge your shot anyway if you hadn't noticed. If its armour plates don't absorb the blow." he gestured to the hologram again. "I can override its subscription. I just a little time." the last thing he wanted for for something this advanced to be destroyed. Before he had a chance to study it intently.
I feel like doing something in the warhammer world. If anyone has an idea in that regard shoot me up. If not well then pick from the list and well see what we can do. I'm only looking for one, maybe too if im tempted enough at the moment.
read his most recent post where he turns it into a dancing ice sculpture.
that and It was water.
Ya in know were each getting 6. Im just making sure the Ten is being split.
Thovren Whistled softly in appreciation at what he saw. Most land drones were crawlers because they were more stable and able to move at faster speeds. That and walker drones were notoriously hard to keep balanced when damaged or forced to run, or just have to move with any fluididty and speed. But what he saw on the hologram was a very good start. It was a stiff but it moved very well had had a lot of agility for a drone, a walker no less. It had potential. What he would give for a day alone with that machine, taking it apart and putting it back together again. Do that once and he was confident he could build himself a workable knockoff.
"Drones are only ever remote controlled, and they all come with at least rudimentary AI. You will never find a physically piloted combat drone." he said bluntly and emphasized the word 'never'. He wasn't intending to be rude, but he was to focused to try and form his sentances into delicate works of art either. He was certain he was the only one in the room with a hope of understanding how this bloody thing worked. So he might as well start them off with the basics. He was too busy studying the image to care about anyone else in the room but words were reaching his ears, even if he was only half paying attention. "that defeats the very purpose of a drone. It is designed to carry out simple instructions independently of manual control." He focused on the hologram instead f the ice sculpture, his gaze was intently fixed on the beautiful image. "Even when someone takes, more or less direct control of a drone they do so through programming." He knew this piece would have state of the art AI, or at least that's what the company was probably planning to insert into the drone. It would be able to respond and obey to its subscriber with reasonably intermediatly complex orders. It probably had reasonable self preservation programming and attack protocols. It certainly outstripped anything he currently had in his van. Or anything he currently had the spare parts to make. Hell it outstripped most of what he knew was on the market. Not everything, but many combat drone models.
"It probably has the best security firewalls and codes the corperation can afford. It will most likely try to attack, and it will be strong, not to mention whatever weapons they decide to attach to it between now and then." he sighed and leaned back into the chair, still starring hard at the hologram. "Overriding the subscription will be tough. I'll need to be right next to it to take control." It would be a brutally hard subscription to override, but he was more than willing to try.
Also that's ten grand split between all of us correct?
