You're still allowed, Cha0zz. You guys basically built the wiki yourselves, so it'd be silly to tell you not to edit it. But do post changes you make there, here, for my sake.

Buck got some decent rolls, but in an interesting twist managed to roll higher (due to my bonus/penalty tweaks) for learning "Common hiltorel military equipment". As a result, he may think he understands mind control, but he doesn't really.

Great! Once the month or so that it takes me to learn this (in-game, of course), could I make some kind of short primer about squid weapons and mind control and send it to the rest of Alpha/Beta? Mainly to showcase my new, vast, knowledge, of course. I'd actually write it up, so you can have a future reference for what my character, uh, 'learned'

Well, we get to keep our PDA on the Nemesis and you can use those to send messages to each other, so I assume so
By then Saoirse should've learned enough about the mind control amps to shake her head at your message

I just wanted to make it clear that I'm not trying to do this to actually give the knowledge to other characters, mechanically speaking. I mean, the basic gist of what Tal told me would still be in it, but as you can imagine, it wouldn't sound very legitimate (and indeed, a lot of it wouldn't be). Hence why I said I'd actually write the contents up.

I thought I replied to this earlier but it turns out I was mistaken. It turns out I forgot to hit "submit"! Basically, yeah, that's a great idea and you seem to already understand you can't transfer non-common knowledge. No issues here!

Purchases

remove:
- crowbar
- Turret upgrade (+1000cr)

Buy:
- Plasma baton (0cr)
- weapon mount (1000cr)
- REAPER (5000cr)

cred left: 1450

Aww yisssss, I've been wanting for someone to use the REAPER since I invented it
Do I edit or are you going to?
Edit: nevermind, edited it already

Thanks, I wasn't able to do it anyway until this afternoon

I'll drop the following from my inventory:

-First-Aid kit (Free)

And add the following:

-Sword (Free - One- or Two-Handed, dunno. I intend to get that Hiltorel sword back)
-Advanced Medical Kit (3000 Creds)
-Light Armor Suit (2000 Creds)

Did everything but the sword, because I need Tal to weigh in on that -
a) if you get it back
b) if it's a sword or a longsword and
c) if it's actually even a real equivalent to a sword (here thinking of the description saying it had a bunch of buttons on it that Frank didn't know what they did)

It's a regular old sword, but there's a number of buttons on the handle you can't make heads or tails of. It's a pretty wide handle, actually - you wonder if it's more than just a sword.

Purchasing 2 grown bodyparts.

Done, you have 9000 creds left. (And haven't levelled, but I assume you're still pondering that )
Also, I noted the grown bodyparts on your char sheet for now, but I'm not actually sure that's needed - they're kinda just new "original" legs after all...

I'm now only giving Mekkin 500 credits.

Updated, you now have 2350.

Stats/skills: +1 for durability, maneuvering, charisma, and intuition

Purchases: Light Armor (2000), Railgun (3000), 2 Painkiller syringes (400), 1 Coagulant Booster syringe (200)

Also, squad beta (Ishmael, Saoirse, and Bob) all get 750 credits as their share for completing the side mission.
