I would also wonder how decentralized the nervous system is. You know how some bugs can keep moving around even after they get smashed of their head bitten off? I can see the Umiak doing something similar (I am aware they are closer to mammals but they have a bug look).

Oh that is even worse

You have a good point- where are the vital organs on that thing? Inside the armored body obviously. Barring access, I'd try severing the semi-flexible 'neck', or as many of the 'eyes' as quickly as possible, and hoping there isn't a sort of infrared or motion detector on the main body that can't be...

https://i.imgur.com/HXcx4Vg.png He's never been in an actual infantry battle before. He'd have to recognise a weak point, aim for it, and take the shot all while an enemy he only just encountered is moving toward him. I flinch and panic fire in that situation playing video games, never mind a real ...

Good to see some people get Alex isn't an infantryman hell that bugger doesn't look like it has a weak point not to mention that head likely isn't holding its brain. Where would that things weak spot be it is functioning very well for missing a limb which usually means no more fighting for us human...

The thing is, if she did hit then its not even apparently marred by the impacts. If thats true, hopefully Alex immediately and reflexively dialed it up to 8, because otherwise he is screwed.

Why didn't they make a blaster go to 11?

As has been established with the Umiak ship designs.. I expect each hard trooper is custom crafted following the local Administration 'pattern' plan based upon local resources and tactical needs. There is no 'uniform' design by the Umiak... merely performance standards that are to be met for satisf...

do the hard troopers choose their design or do they come off an assembly line? As has been established with the Umiak ship designs..

I wonder where the brain in that thing is?
Hm, either bird brain, or perhaps some sort of "distributed" brain - like a Supraesophageal ganglion ?

its not in the head that's for sure.

CrimsonFALKE

Behold the might of a hardtrooper I wonder where the brain in that thing is?

CrimsonFALKE

A small arms blaster would be designed to be fired in atmosphere, so I don't see that being a problem. Oxygen accelerates combustion but it doesn't itself burn. The most obvious danger in using higher power settings on a blaster is the risk of missing your intended target and having the shot go thr...

I was gonna say, if ever there was a situation to turn it up to 8, it would be now. Also, can someone decapitate spoiler guy (right above this post) in one swift blow?

All will be explained ... eventually... patron pages already address this. But now here comes some action ~ been waiting to see it in color! This will be Spectacular!!

What coloration scheme do you think the unknown ship will be?

CrimsonFALKE

The hard troops are on the outside of the ship and coming inside. Holy shit, those guys are absolute units. I wonder why the bugs don't fire torpedoes loaded with them at the Loroi ships and capture the vessels if they can handle the vacuum of space. I wonder do the Hardtroops pull their weight when...

CrimsonFALKE

I am not sure the Umaki would be so stupid as to open up with weapons in a magazine.

CrimsonFALKE

I'm not sure using earth to flank the bugs would be wise as it would kind of go well out of the Lorois way to get their then go at the umaki home worlds.

CrimsonFALKE

Yeah... humanity does not outnumber the Loroi. Earth has a larger population than any of the Loroi worlds, but the Loroi have a lot more worlds. Beryl appears to be left-handed. I seem to recall that Loroi were more likely to be left-handed (I think there was something about it in the Loroi discuss...

CrimsonFALKE

Damn fire blade and others liker her would be great at pest control. No need for harsh chemicals we psychically crush all the bugs.
