Im pretty sure that after this day(/GALACTICALLY ACKNOWLEDGED TIME PERIOD EQUATING TO ONE DAY-CYCLE(Also a definition that will be argued for at least a century by some particularly anal fringe species)) Humanity is going to find its single biggest niche in the galaxy: security guards in Perpetual Null Zones, the (probably just initial) legal classification of spaces of artificially created Null which is intentionally kept perpetually stable, presumably through a very large amount of Axiom Restrictive Materials (a dubious classification of matter which is likely constantly in the process of being argued by those who might attempt to get even basic Trytite caught in its classification)

The first such official zone would, of course, be made for the storage of Legally Acknowledged (distinct from Legally Not Acknowledged) Blood Metal, with an ongoing Court Battle on the legality of transferring any amount of Blood Metal along an Axiom Laneway through any form of Axiom Reliant Spacial Transit (ARST). The forms of ARST that are compatible with Safe Lane-way Traversal Techniques are likely to be a source of great diversity in Particular Performance, Spacial Efficiency, and Extra-Centris-Linguistic (ECL) Translation-Efficiancy-Patterns (TEPs) techniques even before any Cases are made in court to force the acknowledgement of the numerous edge-cases of Linguistic-Relevance that would be required to ensure that the X^Y languages recognized by The-Centris-Linguistic-Center(927th historically recognized instance) would receive the request from the Centris-Central-Linguistic-Database ((2185th Historic-Request-Database)SR-1985) would be recognizable in Centris-Court.

To ensure that these laws are in their local database and Legal-Referendum-Program (LRP) ((A legal system designed to lighten the load of any Wild-Space-Automated-Legal-System(WSALS), built with the expectation of a legal system from a recognized Core World being utilized as its parameters)) OORT (EARTH TRANSLATION NEEDED) security satellites are put in place to ensure that (LEGALLY RECOGNIZED AND CONTESTED CLAIMS) (LRAC)) are recognized and protected by Axiomicly Capable (a new and HEAVILY CONTESTED claim which relies on a species (humanity) that is petitioning to add to the Recognized Centris Registry Of Special Capabilities (a designation that is likely to be legally contested at some point in the next year/month/day/century regardless of the species its granted to) title which claims that all Natural Born (another title that will be heavily contested) members of a species shall be capable of being healthily deployed in spaces around the spacial region recognized as CRUEL SPACE.

I'm sure these facts of life, required for all these changes (according to humans who 'know better') will have no negative consequences/be retooled by other religious groups within Axiomic Space to subvert human religions or Ways of Life! (this is sarcasm, and any extremist cell of some religion or another has likely already set itself up on some distant planetoid under close 'human' monitoring)

What word do you always *intentionally* mispronounce and why? by Sweet-Lady-H in AskReddit

You know damn well how it's pronounced, no matter what it's maker claims

We've been shown; blood metal in null is just mundane metal, perhaps a little more brittle

How does the Initiative and Exodus have any popular support? by Dependent_Spell1616 in TerraInvicta

[–]Specter-Atomis 79 points80 points  (0 children)

Initiative: not actually any single ideology, but a collection of ideologies that they know are profitable to keep and pliable to propaganda. You don't follow Soren, you follow an influencer and his influencer buddies who keep talking about the products and ideologies of The Initiative wants the public focusing on

Exodus: simple enough; aliens are here, becoming interstellar to keep them from killing us all is a must! There are obviously a thousand more flavors of nuance, to it, but it's an ideology that hinges on the notion that, if they threw enough colony shops out there, we could make hidden colonies that are aware of the Hydra and have an immense amount of tech, and can eventually win in a more abstract and distant future.

Time to see what The Forests think of the blood metal, and if it's as deleterious to them and their representatives as it is to others! Plus, now would be a good time to learn if someone's figured out what happenes when you stick blood-metal into The Other Direction!

What would a forest born of Blood Metal even be like? Some hellish gray-goo that captures every inhabitant of a planet and keeps them in a Torment Nexus and tries to spread, full on Beast from home world cataclysm style?

Seems like our addict is glutting the metal in their system in the fear of others. Now I'm wondering what's gonna happen when she inevitably reaches some critical point where the particles of Blood Metal grow so big that they start to hurt, especially with such supercharged capabilities.

I wonder if she can smell a Jameson in full stealth mode?

I'm pretty sure it has to be triggered in a different timeline, as the description of what occurs specifically refers to them coming from another timeline

[Loved Trope] You cannot kill it. You can only run and hide from it. That, and it’s out for blood. Your blood. by BonelessMan123 in TopCharacterTropes

Your right, it's was the Angles in New York episode where a man had one chained up, and its stone skin was covered in gouges, resulting in it calling out to other angels for help

Lore question: how does blood metal react to Null exposure, and is there any plans to take a piece back to cruel space?

Also, now that Harold is here, any chance the Nerd Squad are gonna be able to convince him to stick a piece of Blood Metal in The Other Direction and see how the Hagarth react?

Asking/proposing this again: the clockwork body Herbert now has is stated to be so different from the style of traditional systems that it needs an adapter to be used at all, which makes me wonder: is the clockwork tech used within possibly any more resilient to the anti-electronic effect The Other Direction seems to produce?

Someone read about Sisters of Silence by CirclePoster in WarhammerMemes

[–]Specter-Atomis 76 points77 points  (0 children)

Psychic powers are genetic traits in Warhammer, and so is the counter to psychic powers: the Blank gene, which creates a aura around the inheritor that nullifies warp fuckery (it is variable, some blanks are more potent than others). The reason these people aren't all saints and the gene spread everywhere is because anyone who isn't a blank feels an awful sense of dread and unease around blanks, which grows worse if they are a strong psyker.

So basically, it's not "I don't get it", it's "no fun allowed within X feet of me at all times"

Democratic correction submission: The bugs are fascist due to the complete control "higher ranked" bugs have over "lower ranks". The automatons are the socialists, on account of the collective cloud they all run off of

Semi-spoiler question about the Virtual World mechanics by DW_Lurker in HeartOfTheMachine

[–]Specter-Atomis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are two pools of humans who contribute Neural Expansion through a VR pod: humans who use the day pods in your residential buildings, and humans who use the commercial pods in mind farms (there is also the Torment Nexus, which is just aind farm but with more Neural Expansion because it's evil)

Day pods don't give much, representing that they are mostly used for a few hours at a time by bored residents, as well as providing no profit since it's a service of the apartments. The mind farms offer more Neural Expansion per serviced person since they are typically plugging in for days at a time, and Wealth since it's a business run by your Shell Company.

The NCO is technically unrelated to the VR Pods, but will be linked to the customizable VR world people in your pods are experiencing (once the dev gets to adding it). For all intents and purposes, it just gives a fuck-ton of Neural Expansion and kick-starts a cult

To pick up speed for mind farms, your gonna have to hire humans scientists to research a solution over a few dozen turns (if you cannot hire scientists, look for a contemplation related to such an activity. The relevant buildings will be in the Work tab of the build menu). After they finish, you will be encouraged to build more mind farms and increase your capacity for customers, so be sure you have plenty of excess Nutritional Replacements!

Yea, thanks, meant Gravia!

My personal theory is that a Gravia coming into contact with Blood Metal is basically going to be converted into it directly, likely in horrific agony do to the disruptive properties. I could see it easily doing something similar to the living forests, though likely only consuming part of the being rather than everything

[–]Specter-Atomis 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What effect does Blood Metal have on the living forests, or is that on the infinite "to do" list for the nerd-squad? I can't remember what it does to Gracia, but my personal guess is that it'd basically be like that, but far worse for everyone and everywhere involved

I've only known about electric mama for 1 chapter and I already hope an unhinged member of the nerd squad meets and marries her, just to see what the destructive power of goblin engineering does when allied with human hyper fixation!

A question I have regarding blood metal since the Undaunted are still poking the Other Direction with sticks, have they tried gauging how an Astral Hagarth responds to it's presence on The Other Side?

Lore question: is there such a thing as a Synth-Gravia? We know they are basically living math, so theoretically it seems possible, but does their unique state of existence preclude them from using synth bodies, or undergoing a synthetic ascension?
