« on: September 27, 2012, 07:55:45 pm »Then don't use the moon. Global extinction of all life is a bit hard to localize.Why would you hold the planet hostage? That never works.Why not use good ol' massive state violence? It worked in the 20th century, it'll work in the 21st. Just nuke/gas/burn the first city that goes peep to hell and all others will remain silent; the trick is not pretending to be brutal, but being brutal.
Scenarios
1. Earth is not handed over. Moon crashes into Earth. All multi-cellular life driven extinct.
2. Earth is not handed over. UN calls your bluff. Space missiles head your way.
3. Earth is handed over. UN calls your bluff. More space missiles.
4. Earth is handed over. UN somehow does not call your bluff. You have somehow found a way to defend against every country on the planet's weapons. You win! Until it becomes apparent that your only method of ruling is "crash the moon into the earth if things go to shit", as you are woefully undermanned and lack the respect it takes to, well, run an entire planet full of disagreements and competition.
Not necessarily, we seem to be planning to put a lot more resources into R&D than the groundhogs would.Yes, but by the time WE have nanobots, THEY'll have nanobots, therefore the point will be moot.It's a long-term plan.I have an idea for what to do with the moon: Convert it into a Computronium node.Do you have a NanoBotSwarm? No? Then not yet.

Dwarves ARE serious boozers.
And drinks should not be too corrosive, that's bad for the digestion.

You have a very good reason to have not started...I haven't told you where you are yet!
Oh, and we're playtesting the system this round.
-----
Lucius heads to the city, as does Darwuf. Their paths inevitably cross when they meet in a tavern.
They look at each other, on opposite sides of the room, several tables between them. There are a dozen other patrons in the room. Darwuf and Lucius go back to their ale and bread, respectively. The two watch, disappointed, but Armok angers their blood.
What shall they do?

A lot happened that RTD.

GM Turn:
The remaining recursive xenomorph and flat cat xenomorph retreat [4] into some rubble.
The cybermorphs [5,2] open fire with their weird xenocannons, hitting some rubble and [5] singing TCM's hair.
Batxenomorph [1] tries to find a batrocket, but instead finds a batbomb, and accidentally pulls the xenopin. [5] He survives.

I think twopack is the polite buisness man from YOU AT FINAL BOSS.[4v6,2] Technically, you are in Furtaka's body, but you eject yourself from it. Spinal_Taper manages to avoid deletion. You are now a computer on Phobos.
Why os everyone feel like being in the body?
KICK OTHER PEOPLE OUT OF BODY
Open fire.[5] You throw some states at the xenomorphs. It kills some.
Create "Virus that turns anyone who breathes it in into the martian equivalent of their species.[5] You do. It is in a neat sealed container on the Martian surface.

Name: Ulrich Ironarms
Gender: Male
Build: Strength
Knack: Building
Race: Human
Religion: Radiance
Appearance: Big, muscular, yet kind
Backstory:
Ulrich was an average mason, setting up new buildings in a large town. He was assigned a prestigious position: Helping build a temple! He noticed a room he was building, with changes being made between workdays. He started a diagram of the changes, made notes of other areas, and soon discovered a few unethical and probably illegal functions the temple would be put towards. When he came to the town hall with his discoveries, thinking some other group was subverting the temple's construction, he was promptly accused of blasphemy and sent to be an indat.
Vote: Green River!

« on: September 27, 2012, 06:19:00 pm »In response to the last few posts:1. Probably. I'd imagine that it would collapse into a non-robot ball of metal and exhaust pretty much all of the ferrous metals in the solar system, and then some.
Re: Giant robots and flinging stars: A robot big enough to have the Earth installed in it would most likely undergo gravitational collapse due to its own mass. And stars are kind of hard to grab a hold of, what with the not being solid and being insanely hot.

Re: Burning down the house: I never said we should destroy the Earth. Just kind of not live there anymore.
2. Not likely to occur soon.
3. Well, others were.

Let's say that we were told to do so by the Blue Wizard. It's true.

[2] Your cloning machine does not produce a viable embryo, or a viable omelet. You might need to tinker with it, but you should be able to "clone" a few more eggs. It's probably more efficient to clone hens, though.
Jim says he needs more materials before he can make a new robot. He draws up a list:
1 CPU, $65
Latex for skin, $25
Various misc. parts, $75
More alcohol, $60
Total: $225
Jim says he can finish the robot by Tuesday.
Test results:
HR-6: [2] Failure.
HR-7: [6, 3] Well, you might have hit the target, but...you need a new firing range. And another repair from the contractor. He's started work on the tower.
