@Pancaek
Possibly because when the M26 team summoned a second Lurker by accident, I killed it with explosives the next turn.  While the current alien menace has been happily chugging along while under a continual nuclear barrage from over forty full size warships.

Have fun, you guys!  Saint'll just be prepping his own evac somewhere on the opposite side of the system.

We'll be dragging you kicking and screaming along with us though, didn't you get the memo? The gods of this universe are always happy when tinkerers are offered as sacrifice.

So... a weapon to kill a god.

Are you going to be breaking down and analysing every stupid and dangerous thing we've encountered and stored over all the missions, in order to make it?

Actually, that sounds like the penultimate episode of a badly thought out sitcom.
We're not killing a god with the weapon in so much as we're enacting a scorched earth policy.

And it's not the lurker the super vets are fighting.

You're killing The ORIGIN, aren't you? -_-

Hey, I hadn't even thought of that. Cool, I get to meet my boy ORIGIN again. Maybe I'll manage to get a split second of godhood again, like last time we met.

Or maybe Eater of stars. Of combination eater-lurker-origin. Yeah, "destroy origin before any of these alien jerkwads get their grubby paws on it" sounds plausible enough.

maybe you can use that godhood to talk to/fight/consume/combine with the lurker. Or at least make an alliance with all the other gods to take down the lurker

What? And give up on skedaddling to another universe? Naw dog, the Lurker can have this shitty universe. If it does happen I'll just do the cosmic equivalent of giving him a wedgie, then give Pan back his old wizarding powers and fuck off to our new and shiny universe.

Could just try and purify the origin a bit and then shove it into a new universe.

I wish I had more time so I could actually keep up with this thread. Stuff keeps happening.

So you guys are gonna plan how to kill it? Or just charge in there a la Maurice, guns firing and legs akimbo?
Eh, it's not like we don't have any options. We just need to know the situation and a plan can be devised.
My favorite fallback plan is Plan Deathstar:
1. The rainbow cannon greatly multiplies energy input.
2. Enlist Tinkerer to connect Rainbow Cannon to warship reactor and coolant system.
3. Start charging an enormous violet bolt of explosive energy. Keep charging for a few hours.
4. Fire.
5. Hope it doesn't explode in your face.
6. Watch the fireworks. Step four and five is not necessary for step six.

And... Well, if it can't be killed with guns, then it really doesn't matter what we bring with us or what we plan beforehand, right? It will all come down to surviving long enough and being smart and lucky enough to explore the situation and come up with a solution.

I hope it's that last one. I love it when all that stands between  victory and defeat is a crazy plan and a lucky roll.

So let me get this straight:
a)M26 will be generating new, possibly habitable universes, and sending / going with the m27 people to explore, while

b)the vets go off and destroy the universe before the Eldritch gods can do it, thereby demonstrating to the entirity of the Ancient Entity Pantheon that humanity is a Threat, at least to their real estate, and

c)the Supervets come to Heph to fight the piece of the Shadow Light Kudzu that is growing here?

Sounds good, though:

I'd actually be interested in one more, slightly different, possibly boring for most, but story relevant mission. A final farewell, a mission of closure, as it were.

Why hook the Rainbow Cannon up to a warship, when we could hook it up to Heph's entire power grid?  The alien god is probably gonna eat Heph anyway.
I don't know what we'll be fighting, or where. Warship is probably the easiest to have lying around on whatever place you are. Hmm... Maybe trying some alien power source could be more fun... Although I guess that if our target is stationary, I could always have someone paint the target with a portal so I could shoot through it when I've finished sucking Hephaestus dry. Then again, portals can turn unstable when faced with extreme circumstances. But the inter-universal portal machine seems to always work, just has some accuracy problems. If I could get lucky with that... Now that would be fun.
