[quote=@thewizardguy] [@Savato] Forming Fulgurite takes time (at least a minute) and a lot of effort. It's also an uncontrollable AOE weapon. Using it on Apocalypse would quite definitely have killed Apocalypse, but it would also have wiped out all of the Emperor's friend, and caused himself to take the damage as well. And it would have permanently cost him part of his soul. So this solution is far more logical. And again, the Fulgurite was never meant to be used. It was intended to be a deadman's, which was why I specified that it would erase souls, and that Ruiko should inform the people at Conablum Labs of what it did. Had I been active at the time of the conflict I would most likely have interjected and attempted to avoid this outcome, as I had no intention of causing such a mess. Now, while I would personally disagree that it's merely soular destruction, I have no problem with deciding the Deadland thing trumps it, as it would make this entire scenario far less of a pain to deal with. [/quote] Wait wouldn't that mean Ruiko and Banha died too? Bizarre. Tbh it probably wasn't a good idea to bring it at all when you know the Outliners aren't particularly hostile to you and you also know that death doesn't have the same value in that universe. It would have been more useful to demonstrate power to the Conquerors, but Lmpkio would have been against it probably. Aye, it's mostly what Absolis said, it isn't 40K, as such it would likely not work the same way even if it's insane reality warping stuff. Also the Ethereal was going to pop up as soon as Banha and Ruiko (mentioned in in its latest post and Sgt took note of it) reacted to all of this. Meaning the Conablum labs pillage would have been met with some rather belligerent psionic countermeasures.
