Right?

Of course.

It's known as running away.

You have to ask?

Oh, yeah. Real heroic and Inquisitorial. My next char: One of Ciaphas Cain's ancestors!

The Insomnia Strikes Back.

Back for a bit. Stand by for Prius.

Woo. I think this is the calm before the arse-kicking.

Petro, I need someone to assault my Kroot!

Hmmm... question: If we we were to pull everybody out and asked the Ramilles star-fort (don't remember if it actulally had a name) to flatten the Admech temple from orbit, how much collateral damage would there be?

Please wait until I leave.

Quite likely enough to satisfy even Prius for a short while.

Will work on the bushwhacking of your kroot, Pcm.

Flattened temples answer no mysteries. There has to be evidence left for that. Let the IG bleed, that's their job.

Hey, I happen to be nearby too. I just want to know if it's in any way a viable option.

Ask and ye shall receive, Pcm. Have fun.

As for the Star Fort business... Imperial naval weapons tend to be... somewhat indiscriminate, from my understanding. They lack the elegant precision of, say, a phaser.

I'm aware of that; my question is basically: 1) Precisely how indiscriminate they are, and 2) How much firepower would be required to destroy the Temple.

The IoM doesnt' fuck around.

Need: good infantry
Response: genetically modified, biomechanically augmented, psycho conditioned killing machine with the best gear we have.

Need: nasty gun.
Response: gun that shoots lots of armour-piercing rockets that explode inside the target.

Need: close range death ray
Response: melta gun that reduces steel to slag and flesh to ash.

Need: heavy orbital bombardment
Response: You know what.

No half measures with our team.

Erm. Necronlord, the communication was conducted using a short-range laser beam. How on earth did they intercept it?

The hive would collapse. You would be brought before a conclave of inquisitors for going for genocide rather than simply sending in billions of guard, and flayed alive, before being kept in agony for the rest of your days.

Happy?

Pcm, you can determine the outcome of your Kroot confrontation... there are as many servo skulls as you want there to be, and they kill as many of your wretched xenos followers as you want them to kill.

Oh, one other thing... they can also get close and detonate themselves like grenades.

God, I love this game...

Perhaps you'll learn. Suffice to say. In smoke or steam, lasers emit laterally. What does First and Only say those consturctors emit a lot of?

Just go with me here. It's semi-essential.

I foresee heavy casualties among my forces. Oh joy.

Righto. Time to try the ol' (Proabably literally in this case) silver tongue.

Go for it. But your pleas are probably going to the wrong audio sensors.

Me stoopid. Need stronger hint.

Didja get my PM, BTW?

Ok. Hint. The Iron Men are probably the smartest, most rational people there.

Yes. I got it. I'm thinking it over.

Iron Man Voice Actor: Christopher Lee.

Just an FYI.

Well, that puts it into perspective.

Yes, I suck at convincing my way out of a tight spot. I only have James Bond movies to go on.
