you'd have to autopilot Eraser until such a time as I get a computer capable of X-fire

Well I'm reluctant to exclude TSD from the BPN. Although it doesn't necessarily have to be xfire.

IRC? You wouldn't even need a client, there's a few web clients out there.
Also, yes Buzz.

IRC or steam chat, yeah. I could quickly set up a room on some server on mIRC and then find a web-client that connects to it.

Well anyway, no need to put things on hold.
After spending the rest of the day planning and procrastinating, setting up your quarters (you've still not decided where those are), resting up and eating, Shelton informs you that you've a message waiting for you in his office.

I'll scrape my way over and wait for the others.

I'm going to assume that they get there. Shelton leaves you to read your message in peace, using your own net logon.

I don't particularly want to stage an attack whilst armourless, so I'll stick behind.
Can I suggest that if you do want to shoot somebody up to stage a battle, you blast the guy that can regenerate limbs?

Well since we're back at this stalemate again with you all cringing outside the airlock cuddling your armour, I'll ask who isn't going and assume everyone else will set off tonight.

Whoa, wait, I overquoted there. I just meant to agree with

Kt'rr is definitely heading outside. He don't need no stinking armour!*

Eraser will go as the engine of the Meatshield express.

Well as it turns out, on unpacking your extra large enviro-suits, you find that they're armoured anyway. Not a great deal, a layer of flack buffer and knife-proofing, but enough to stop a critter bite or prevent them getting compromised in an accident.

Kt'rr will
SUIT UP! and head out. I would take point, but im guessing deej wants to do that.
