@Ryonara
What'd you break this time?

[The 42nd Gecko]

@Mega Birb The surgeon. Don't tell anyone, Ryonara just got out of the crime scene.

[Lucius Cypher]

Yeah, that guy just killed a doctor for the insurance money! HE'S A CRIMINAL!

And possibly a spy.

So I've rewatched the DOOM 2016 Game recently and while I heavily doubt the possibility of this coming into play (its like 0.00001%), I thought of something cool. So the Machina just represents humanity and mechs/androids 100%, with no affiliation to either Heaven or Hell right? It basically represents Humanity as a whole.

But what if there were human sub-factions that actually lean more towards Heaven and Hell? Now they aren't allied with either faction necessarily, but rather they are trying to use something that they have to their own advantage. Take for example how the UAC in DOOM manipulates Hell Energy into Argent Energy. Hell certainly hates them for doing it, but the Corporation was able to manipulate and bend energy to their own will (while also trying to weaponize the Demons for some whatever reason).

For the RP, I was thinking of some cult-like followers on both sides that use some of the advantages of their "leaning affiliations" for their own good. Like for the Hell-Cult they could do a similar thing like in DOOM, while also experimenting on Demons, using their technology to their own will, created cyborg mechs based off this energy (think Evangelion-esque mechs), take over the world and then eliminate the demons once their plan is achieved, destroy Heaven and Humanity, etc. And for Heavens-Cult they could do a similar thing as well, but maybe trying to find a way to recreate the world to 'advance humanity' or something, relying more on powerful artifacts and some strong units and super weapons to become the "Neo-Angels". Either way, both factions have diabolical plans that threaten all the main Factions and if achieved could spell doom for the entire world.

Again, I heavily doubt this will go into any motion whatsoever, but I thought it was simply a fun thing to come up with.

You're assuming what little of humanity remains are either not soldiers or enslaved. Furthermore, Machina are naturally weak to Demons.

@TheWindel

Oh I see. Again it was just an idea that was fun to come up with. Wasn't expecting it to be a thing anyways.

But I guess the whole Machina being weak to demons has a triangle advantage? Like Machina ---> Angels ---> Demons ---> Machina (repeat)?

[TheWendil]

@Lmpkio

Yes, you are correct. Demons corrupt technology. Angels purify Demons. And Machina beats Heaven cause guns.

@TheWindel

Huh... Well that explains a lot. So thats why Zeruel got his ass handed to him by Bastion... and not just simply because of the combined firepower of Henry, Barlog and Graf (even though he's a Machina unit but whatever).

Why didn't I catch this on earlier?

[TheWendil]

@Lmpkio

I don't know why either. It's mentioned in some of the early OOC posts if not the OP.

@TheWindel

Probably didn't bother checking the entire first page aside from the OP (Im like that in every other RP mind you, not just here). But either way it makes much more sense.

This is why Sliske gets his ass handed to him whenever Omega is on the field.

@Mega Birb

Well OK then lol now I know.

[The 42nd Gecko]

@Lmpkio It's not a 100% hard and fast rule.

For example, Cydone wrecked Ni-Mu simply because she tried to stop an unstoppable attack improperly. And Henry beats Miyu because Miyu lacks in every category of power.

But all things being equal, Machina beats Angel beats Demon beats Machina.

Oh I know that. I'm just saying I get the premise of this whole thing.

You can get away with another Ira post before Syphax, he's got nothing to do besides circle the mother-daughter conflict in hopes he can finish his fight.

@Mega Birb

Well if he Ira does get launched upwards, he'll get a real nice shot on a vulnerable enemy. Hopefully he won't kill Ira and deny Hildr the incestuous interrogation scene after the battle. Then Ira would get purified, Viper GTS style, and come back as Freyr the well endowed fertility goddess.

[TheWendil]

@Mega Birb, @Lonewolf685

There's such a thing called collabing.

[Mega Birb]

@Lonewolf685@TheWindel

Are we doing this? And can't I just cleave her in half? No one's been cleaved in half yet.
