I don't believe it was, and it occurred to me as well. However, I think priority 1 for us is to link up with the other team. (especially if that other team is one of the teams that got eaten, which there are good odds of)  After that, we can consider finding a med-bay.

However, I imagine a medbay would be a fairly high-value target, and thus well protected. Probably a little less protected than any control room, but still protected. Additionally, we would have to take it intact, and given that there are likely multiple medbays on this ship, something they are highly unlikely to allow us to do. Think of it from the enemy perspective. There are two reasons to assault a medical facility.
1) You want to deny the enemy that resource. If we only attack one facility (which is all we have resources to do) on a ship with multiple, we're not doing that effectively. Which means the enemy can safely conclude that our objective is reason #2
2) You want that resource yourself. In this case, they have more facilities. They have no need to defend it, so if they think they might lose it, they'll disable it or trap it.
So if we attempt to take a medbay, we'll likely end up taking a room full of junk at potentially high cost to our already small team. And even if we do take it intact, we have to defend it for long enough to revive you, an even less likely occurrence.

Sorry. I did what I could to try and revive you with the other pods, but PW said it wasn't going to happen

Hey, Kriellya, just checked your entry in idiots in space. Still got that drone platform? That would be good to have.
And if you are really desperate, I can give you my Mining Laser... I can't use it without Gilgamesh's strength but your MK3 has an exoskeleton.
So what if you have a -2 to conventional? It's only an 83.3% chance of failure.

I believe I do *not* have that drone platform. It was part of the team-fund for the assault, and I believe it was sold to dole out payments. On the otherhand, if PW wants to give me a free drone platform because he forgot to update his files

I have a space calculator with +0, so I'm *technically* fine with weapons. (in addition to the spare I'm going to borrow from Stacy) I think the only reason I'd go with a gun over the calculator is because when (not if, when) I miss with the gun, I'll blow a hole in the floor, but if I miss with the manipulator, I'll blow a hole in the hull. Or my skull. Or everyone's skull.

Shit... sounds like it's time to leave.

Knock lightly on the connected door and unlock it, then carefully check out the blinds.

(( Going to assume I went to bed dressed. Seems like the thing to do

Also, look what you've done, Xan! ))

(guys, you gotta chose a side to open up on, remember? Laser cutting system on each wall. Which one you open might make a difference, depending on which team you are.

Would advise not opening the one thats facing space.)

(( The question is do we actually have enough information to *not* open one that's facing space

And if we do, can we just say 'don't open a hole into space'? Although tactically speaking, I can think of a lot of reasons we would want to head into space instead of inside.))

Team A, Support, Skylar

That felt bad. Everyone okay? We need to move quickly.

If not suited up, fix that.

Check the other pods, if their brain cases are recoverable and the intact pods could revive them, retrieve their brains and set them up in the intact pods for revival, I assume by leaving it on 'g-force protection'. If the pods can't fix them, throw Stacy in and suspend him. Study Panceak's brain case, determining if it could be safely powered back on with just an external power supply. If nutrients would be required, suspend Panceak as well.

Prepare to leave by one of the cutters on the same side as a damaged support pod

Because a beak is absolutely the defining characteristic of a parrot. And not, you know, the lack of tentacles.

Still, given the criteria we have,  Option #1 is certainly more of a parrot. Option #2 doesn't have a beak *or* lack tentacles. A clear loser in the race to being a parrot.

I'm good to go with you, Flint. Though be aware that I don't exactly have a consistent weapon. I'll go ask Steve what I can do to gain some remote access to the ship as soon as we get onboard. The faster I can get control of ship systems, the faster I'll be of real use.

Prep to go by asking Steve about ways to gain remote access to some ship systems, ask for any cables that would make this process easier.

Also ask if he has any maps of the defending ships

I'm good for boarding
