Alright, revised collab and mission list due to being in way over my head.
Saturday (today):
1. Fred Solo (I'll be done in about 30 minutes)
2. Hermes and Thomas Collab w/ Blackout (Main Roleplay Doc)
...at the same time as...
3. Irina and Brienne w/ AlzDude28 (DG Doc 2)
4. Write Aerial Mission for Alz
5. Write VIP Mission for Tax
Sunday (tomorrow):
6. Homework (3-4 hours worth... joy.)
7. Minor Mission with Marine (get to writing the intro for me today, Marine)
8. Time for me to relax if possible
9. Minor Mission with Zmby
Note - Operation Banished Mountain is postponed for now, I need to write a prerequisite collab, an intro post, and a briefing in that order for it, which I'll likely do between Monday and Wednesday, and we can work on it Friday/Saturday after that.

Research Updates by April 20th, 2044:
Weapons R&D, April 20th -> Compact Coolant Systems Completed. MEC Ravagers available for manufacture (1 will be built to start off), and MEC Troopers now have access to a coolant item that will grant them the Suppression ability called a "Plas-Helium Capacitor".
Armor R&D, April 20th -> Personal Shields Level 1 Completed. P1 attachments for armor are now available for manufacture.
Equipment R&D, April 19th -> Damage Reduction Techniques Completed. Impact Vest for high damage reduction (think an Starcraft II immortal shield of sorts) and a Breaching Nozzle (bypasses a level or two of resistance) now available as gear.
Psionic Labs, April 15th -> Advanced Psionic Armor Completed. Vortex Armor (medium psi armor) now available for production.
Gene Labs, April 15th -> SMART Capabilities Completed. Unlocks the following:
BRAIN STEM: Smart Respiration – In the event that breathable air is not available, the brain stem passively shuts off breathing and assists the body in conserving oxygen.
LUNGS: Smart Lungs - The lungs can collate foreign chemicals easier and eject dense gasses, toxins, and carcinogens in moderate amounts.
LIVER: Toxin Bulwark - Enhances the liver’s detoxification capabilities, not only protecting against artificial poisons but also preventing atmospheric poisoning from gases that would kill a normal person.
The Foundry, April 14th -> Tactical Rigging Completed. Extra misc/handheld slot for regular soldiers. Extra inventory slot for MEC Troopers. (Need to update the former, but the latter was already edited in advance)
Cybernetics Lab, April 16th -> Cranial Upgrades Completed. Unlocks the following:
Occular Receptor - Allows for the attachment of two extra visual receptors without putting stress on the brain.
Spatial Enhancer – Expands spatial reasoning, making maneuvers in 3D feel more natural. A must-have for anyone involved in space combat. +1 PER
Robotics Lab, April 16th -> Fenrir Completed. You can find the details in the latest post by Zmby.

Damn, a female only snake like race is quite tempting to add into my story, I mean...the character design is just awesome, when I think about it.

Was going to do them this weekend, but I may or may not have the time.

Anyone got any ideas for extra structures within the Einherjar?
Currently we're working on/planning 2 new hangars, and planning an interior shipyard for fighter craft and such.

Do we have turrets attached to the outside of the ship? If we do, we'd need control centers for them (since with a ship this size I doubt you could fit enough terminals in the bridge unless the whole thing is run by a dumb AI) plus areas to refill their ammo pools.
From what I can see on the list, there's a lack of offensive-based rooms, gun batteries or a hangar devoted to dropping bombs and the like. I know we've got them, based on several posts in which the Einherjar was described as a trump card in aerial battle.

The control centers, gun batteries, reload centers, yare yare daze are just assumed to be located in sporadic regions across the floors. The bridge is the 'control center' for all of that, wheras at the moment Drones / Outsiders and computerized systems are responsible for firing the minor guns on the ship. The main ones are fired by the bridge staff.
To specify, the Einherjar has a big ass triple fusion cannon, eight plasma batteries, and dozens of pulse and gauss cannons. (Strength in descending order there). It doesn't have a bomb bay, though.

When the 22nd of April rolls around I have an "Einherjar Status" post that describes everything that has been researched, produced, constructed, and so on, and gives a few upcoming things for the bigger projects as well, like shipping times for new fighters.

"Definition of a Natatorium" and nu.
Did you not read that one Kallpa and Korra post?

I'm kidding,
I didn't see that little bit about the pool though, that should be a fun place to rp.

Also, if anyone has any names they'd like to submit, I'd like to recruit up to ten Forseti people for our NPC roster. Most likely 5-8. Try to keep the names varied so I don't get all British names.

In light of the fact that a lot of people have been blowing off their character's limbs (looking at you, Dahl, Blackout, and Alz), does...
...does anyone want to get gene-modded or psi tested?

I've been wanting to keep Connor clean but should I give him mods?

I was actually planning to have Samantha get modded after the next mission. Still have to work out which ones exactly, though.
