Intermission 2: The OtO Power Armor Production Bay on the Isle of Mag Buskt


#1

The technicians had finished installing the repair and building equipment. The fabricators, saws and forklifts were fresh out of box and gleaming chrome.

The Infamous Olgog the Olgog watched the computer input screen with interest. His fingers were prepared to select his first set of production.

Then his radio beeped. He clicked the encrypted radio on and heard Amber’s voice.

“Hello Mr. the Olgog, Amber here for Mr. VLAD.
The Boss wanted to know if you needed any clones sent over?”

OtO looked at the console then back at the radio. He supposed putting in both orders at once would work to keep things concise.

One order over radio for clones. A separate one entered into the machines to start building.

Hello Amber,

I need the science clone with memory bank. I also need the spear trained clone.

For more general clones, I need several to infiltrate simonsburg and the new city of karov. If they can have some sort of building expertise it would be easier to gain access to new places.

Also a variety to search out ruins to the south and west for investigation into ruins. These are going to need to interface with the ferals, so i would keep high technology out of sight for this.

That is it for specifics at the moment.

OOC: OtO’s men will know about the clones the clones won’t be informed of OtO’s men that have infiltrated other tribes.

The fabricators where finally put to use, the science clone was called and asked to create 3 power armour suits, making sure to use the prototypes specific changes to the lancer armour for it to function well in the desert. In addition, he was asked to create the 3 standard kits (sniper rifle, two hand guns, + weapon specific). In this case it would have a battle spear (melee combat) with a quiver with several lighter spears for throwing and some sort of artillary gun (can’t rebuild chain gun yet, so something similar) and some sort of defensive system (ideally would be chaff , but probably be flares because of tech restriction).


#4

Olgog the Olgog Scientist looked at the three suits of power armor. They were finished off in a desert camo pattern. He grumbled to himself and then thought twice about complaining.
At least the armor would function well in most environments.
The weapons were already a challenge. The spear had been easy enough, as were the throwing javelins. A single use Flare Launcher was mounted on the armors shoulder blade. It would draw off heat seeking weapons and most guided missiles.
The Artillery piece that had been requested as a different story. Olgog the Olgog Scientist felt his skills were being wasted on something as common an uninspiring to him as a cannon. He quickly noticed the Isle had little in the way of metal, but at least the Bruskti were able to scrounge enough gunpowder for him to assemble ten artillery shells for his mini-howitzer. But he realized the large shells would require much larger amounts of Metal and hoped the Infamous OtO would return soon with the salvage.

Olgog the Olgog scientist finished mounting the cannon on the first suit of power armor. He ran a few tests which cost him four shells but allowed him to solve the recoil issues. Now safely able to be used, the three sets of power armor were ready to be sent out to the field.

[ Unluckily on such short notice they each only had two shells apiece for this weeks mission (uses rules for 5inch howitzer) requires power armor to use. ]

Hello Amber,

I need to activate some more clones, Sniper OtO, Explosive OtO , and Sword OtO.

Sniper OtO is to stealth into each area and train OtO’s “Spies” on how to actually spy. This is to be done by gathering the gogs in each area and training them in one place.

Explosive OtO is needed for help with excavation on Mag Buskt’s Island and Sword OtO is needed for a mission with Spear OtO.


#6

When materials arrived, a slight modification to the standard lancer design was made (with help from science OtO) . A distributed system of control and power was implemented, enabling gloves ,boots, helmet to be used away from the standard power source. When hooked up to the full set of lancer armour, these systems will lay dormant unless the system shuts down.

(if you are looking for “stats” Im thinking something like E.P. of 5, this is more so they can be used independently of the main suit for training).

immediately when these were done, 15 pairs of boots, gloves and helments were made, with small zela coated bars inside the gloves (by the wrist), helmet (by the neck) and the feet (by the heel). These are not for protection, they are there to cut off leyas use.

These would then be brought out for the fishergogs to use.

The rest of the pieces of armour would be built, and then Science OtO would start producing the parts he needs for manufacturing machines for this space endevour. Things like a plastic 3d printer, a forge, injection molder, and bigger manufacturing equipment for assembly.


Science OtO would be given some “fun” things to develop away from the rest of the group. The space stretching engine is the first on the list. New pistol, one built based on Telsa’s design (basically it puts so much power into electrons that any molecule it hits has its bonds broken, essentially a disintegration ray) are one the top of the list. End goal of being able to produce nanites is mentioned, and that we should work on building machines that help miniaturize what we can. (OOC: I know this is not going to happen because no nanites in the golblinlands, but it is a goal of OtO so that he can build Second Stage power armour, a nifty enhancement to a nanite shield and more importantly get nanite syringes )


#7

OtO reactivates the two dead clones (they had memory boxes that were suppose to be totally recoverable for this situation). In addition , he would request that power armour shells be passed down with them (more the better).

For quick upgrade and modification to the standard sets I have.


#8

OOC: This OTO is sick currently


#9

power armor and memory boxes were secured by the EEF from the dead bodies. before they were taken Old Vlad downloaded the data allowing the next clone Spear OtO and Explosive OtO to know what occurred on mission.

Science OtO experiment’s challenges:

Project 1 Space Stretching Engine

  1. What power source will be used ? currently only has access to solar generators used in EEf power armor which dont provide enough energy
    2.Where will the Space Stretching Engine be tested?
    3.Will this SSE be mounted on Godart’s rocketship?

#11
  1. Power source was going to be a combination of sources, solar to maintain the engine, a small thorium nuclear reactor to produce the energy to initiate the SSE. (One of the reasons OtO was going after the gunpowder plant -> chemical set he didn’t have to build to extract liquid thorium easily . The extraction can still be done, but it would take longer with the current level of supplies.)

  2. Far away from Mag Buskt’s Island. Hopefully there is an island farther out to sea that is uninhabited that OtO can test the engine on.

  3. No, GoDart is using magnetic energy to launch his ship. This is OtO’s project at the same time, that isn’t being attached to the ship.


#12

nuclear reactors are not currently available as a technology for players in Goblin Lands. no nuclear reactors are allowed outside of EEF control on refuge as that would result in an EEF orbital strike on your position.

an island far away would be outside of Goblin Lands and all actions must occur in the online game within the Goblin Lands and lost colonies so you will need to choose a different testing site within the active game zone.


#13

Comment back to nuclear power, thorium can’t be used to make nuclear weapons. It operates under no special pressures, and consumes 95+% of the source material. For safety purposes, all you need is a salt (chemical definition metal/non metal combination) that you keep frozen. under critical reaction / power outage, the power keeping the salt cold cuts out and then the hotter liquid in the thorium reactor melts and it drains into another tank and the reaction stops.

tl;dr Thorium is safe. can’t be weaponized.

Location search would be done, isolated, no inhabitants, and easy to secure and away from eye sight. Like an abandoned island or an abandoned mine.

New Project

Organic respirator:

Using plants from GoDarts initiative, choloplasts would be extracted and inserted into a fake leaf that has permeable covering. It would have an led light source and would recycle the air inside using normal photosynthesis . light would be powered by a small solar panel with a battery so that it can last up to 3 days.

Should act as a gas mask, scuba re-breather, and a space suit breather (if attached inside a space suit). (they recently just made this, a person can last up to a week before the nitrogen and other atmospheric necessities get to low and the air becomes toxic. Looks like a basic gas mask.
