A. The Omnissiah is one of the creators of radiation, and we dont need the fleshy bits anyways.

Dear LowelDnD, Even though several players have very transparently tried to tie the vote on the purpose, this game is very fun. And we love you. If you are feeling discouraged, we are eagerly awaiting the next update! Every option for this vote rocks and any of them pleasing would be great.

I think we broke him with our tie vote antics. Could just be the normal curse of the CYOA though. Start one and things are bound to crazy in your life. Whatever it is I hope it continues. The flavor is really cool.

Hey all! Thanks everyone for the encouraging replies, Ive been stalling trying to make sure I give you guys a worthy post, but my brain has been uncooperative. Labor day weekend, you know how it goes. I've got my War40k music (HMKids) jamming on my new headset, so Im sure Ill be struck by something soon. edit: As an aside, Im surprised no one clicked the Hymn of the Machine God in the previous post. It amused me to no end. Loel fucked around with this message at 08:26 on Sep 4, 2014 |

Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here now, thank you. How are you? This worked totally fine the last time you did this, you swear. Emperor save you, the Lord-Sire is going to be pissed.... Right. Okay. You can explain. You were on the second lap of the race Between. You weren’t held back by the frailties of flesh, needing to worry about pressure and high-G blackouts, or speeds that tear the flesh from your face, or events that happen at the microsecond. Your servitor has been well trained for environmental conditions like that, and your internal machine-spirit was guiding your every action. So you decided to cut the corner on the radiation pivot. Perfectly reasonable, every Tech-Priest does it at one time or another. Sometimes it can be rough on the humans who haven’t made the transition to machine yet, but there’s billions more where they came from. Machines are much harder to reproduce, but fortunately they are much harder to damage too. So the radiation pivot. Right. To increase the acceleration on your turn, you fired off the passenger pod where your cyber-mastiff could move in to attack. Well, not officially attack, thats against most race rules, but helpfully maul their machinery and distract them, maybe crash them into something. You targeted Jeb on the Blue Team, expecting his vehicle to be less structurally sound. That might have been a bad idea, in retrospect. But you did get a sweet spin from it, spiralling between the two target vehicles in the middle of their jump. You could swear the Omnissiah himself blessed the action with a lensflare. Which totally means what happened next was justifiable and not reason for your spacing. You’re pretty sure the Magos will hold to that part of your case, anyway. Jeb from Blue Team spiralled off the track in a massive set of exploding jets, engines, and fuel. It probably killed a few dozen or few hundred people in the audience, but that was well within the parameters for industrial accidents on a ship this size anyway. No one would notice that part, and neither would you, really. No, the problem more so was when he crashed into one of the promethium bays, igniting them. And some of the Cyclone Torpedo storage units. Which were now detonating and/or rolling towards you, with the anticipation of detonating as well. Their warheads looked pretty well dented and on fire, anyway. Your machine-spirit is yammering in terror, shrieking at a binary pace, detailing the blast wave that is approaching. Cubic hectometers of machinery, debris, ignited promethium, and explosions are heading in your general direction. It’s hard to tell, exactly. The dizziness from the radiation isn’t really helping right now. Do you A) Follow Red-5. He seems to know where hes going (the other side of the ship, which conveniently has the finish line and is far away from this wall of death it is approaching you). You can worry about getting ahead of him later, the important thing is getting away from here now B) You recognize this part of the ship, actually. It’s near some of the core districts. You could breach the interior hull, drive through the dregs, and exit the other side. It would involve crushing several dozen people and their houses, as well as opening the interior to this blast wave, but you would be well ahead in the race. C) The answer is always death from above. You have two repulsor pods left; you could use them to go above and around the racetrack and the core of the ship, landing on Red-5 with great prejudice. The impact alone should knock him out if not turn him to jelly, giving you the victory. D) Add to the debris field. With some effort, you might be able to grab and redirect one of the torpedoes, detonating it somewhere near the end of the track. With some timing and some luck, you could have it explode right as Red-5 gets close, allowing you to cross the finish line at your leisure. E) Something else

E - Do anything you can to prevent a chain explosion. Those are loving cyclone torpedoes, there won't be a ship to finish the race on if they all go off inside the ship. Do try to do it in a way that won't completely take us out of the race.

# ? Sep 4, 2014 08:32 |

Oh, wow. E - Do your best to stop that explosion while continuing the race. And if it happens anyway and we're one of the few survivors drifting in space thanks to being a Tech-Priest, blame Jeb.

D "While I do feel it very unfortunate that Jeb set off this disaster by carelessly losing control of his vehicle (I truly thought him a better driver or would not have allowed him in the race), and this looks very bad for the Blue Team as a result, I do confess I feel much worse about the stray torpedo that took out the Red Team. That was a truly unfortunate consequence of Jeb's incompetence. I do hope in light of this disaster and my clear victory that my judgment on the Batteries will be implemented within the hour. Thank you for your obedience in this matter." How much did we win?

D, but blame Jeb For the entirely OOC reason that this is Dark Heresy, and a TPK by cyclone torpedo during the first social encounter of the game is a great introduction to the system for any not familiar with it.
