It looks like they're growing more rootses down there.
I'm 308.
Come along, my diarminoid friends.
We've got cleaning to do.
Clean.
I'll remember the brief, everybody, because of this episode.
We'll try to remember in wrath and glory.
Yeah!
Yeah!
Wow!
Ah!
Everybody, to another, like, hold him down.
Hold that guy down.
Hold that guy right there.
Get him, get him, get him, get him.
No, no, please!
No, my hands, my hands!
Muffle him, muffle him now.
Put the suckers down.
Get him.
He didn't play such a 33.
Kill him, kill him now.
I did on, do that thing on fucking fire in the sky.
Okay, he receives five demerits, and each demerit is, like, ten lashings.
Begin the whipping.
Whoa.
All right.
Oh, my God.
The whipping.
Yeah, shit.
Fuck.
As you do that, welcome, everybody.
Woo-hoo!
Welcome, everybody, to another exciting episode of Wrath and Glory.
Brought to us by our guest, or not brought to us by, but featuring our guest, Brick.
Thanks, Brick.
You really brought this game.
You're welcome, everyone.
You're welcome.
You brought it.
It's you.
Thank you, everyone, for inventing Warhammer.
Yeah.
Of course you all have on.
You think I know it better.
Of course, we're excited to go into the 41st Millennium and lose our freaking mind,
and we'll see if we stay on track this time.
Okay.
Oh, yeah.
We've never been off track.
We'll see if the cycle kills us.
So, Thurston, what adventure do you have for us today?
Well, last we left off, you murdered a scribe.
That was fun.
Murdered is a strong word.
Well, we have to, we have to see if he, if he was relevant.
If he was relevant.
Well, we're not going to know that.
I brought him back to life because I'm powerful and cool.
You did.
I'm not doing a red cat this time because we barely moved forward.
We went, because you, you did a room.
Well, we went and saw a room, we killed Servitors, found out it's the processing area of the
Servitors, walked up further, saw a guy, and this episode was when, Bruce, kill it.
And like, you got it, boss.
And just murdered the guy.
And now we're like.
Yes.
What was the mission again?
In fairness.
What were we supposed to do?
All right.
Listen, this is a very important thing.
Everyone listen up.
Fuck yeah.
Grip it and rip it, buddy.
Slurped that shit.
That's right.
Thank you.
Thank you.
So that, that, that was, that was the first part of it.
The second part of that was I did not tell you to kill him.
I said, Roos, enemy of the Imperium.
And I just let, I just let the Emperor do the work after that.
No, I just, I just pointed something out.
I mean, you know, it's different.
The, the, the, the law will stay.
That like opens up dictionary, finds the same thing.
Picture of Roos killing enemy of the Imperium.
I just said Roos, enemy of the Imperium.
Enemy of the Imperium.
You know, that's all it is.
You know, I don't, I don't remember.
I didn't tell you to kill him.
I didn't tell you to, to gorge his body into a red paste.
And nor did I tell you to have Aloysius revive him.
But, but, but, but, just to, just to keep us going here.
Thurston, what adventure do you have for us today?
Um, well, I believe, you know, Aloysius kept this poor man alive, kind of, sort of, through technological, uh, heretical means.
He did, he did.
Um, and you were trying to gather some information?
Yes.
All right.
Well, um, Aloysius, what are you, uh, what are you hoping to, uh, to learn here?
Maybe you can switch us to the map, by the way.
It'd be awesome.
Oh, yeah, sure.
I, I will say, I do think I remember, right before we ended, pointing to the mass of flesh and saying,
Roos, did it even be the Imperium?
Oh, that's right.
Okay.
Excellent.
Excellent.
All right.
And Aloysius worked really hard in that number, Fred, so I don't think I'm going to destroy you just yet.
I did.
It's not my finest handiwork, but you can destroy him later if he outlives his usefulness.
Tell me, please.
No, no, no.
I didn't program you to say that.
You're alive just long enough to give us information.
I see the light of the Goddestro.
No, you don't.
You see the shimmering cogs of the Omnissiah.
Now, your fleeting moments, blessed upon you by the motive force, I command you, tell me what is going on with the servitors here.
I, I can't smell.
I can't taste, but why can't I feel pain?
Oh, I must have miswired you.
You're not supposed to feel any of those two things, especially not ask why you feel pain.
Uh, Aloysius will just, like, fiddle around with the probes in his brain right now and his smile.
Oh, hold on, let me, uh...
Stop whining, stop moaning.
This makes it weird for both of us.
Oh, oh, oh, oh.
Oh, so beautiful.
Aloysius, I think he's bluescreening.
Wait, I think he's trying to communicate with us.
Could this be some kind of flesh morse code?
No, he's just groaning.
Aloysius.
Wait, yeah, he's gone.
I hear you, Captain.
Might I try my hand at this?
Well, it didn't replace your hand, but I mean, if you are an up-and-coming scholar of the machine spirit,
I suppose I could let you, my finest prodigy, get your hands dirty, too.
Are you sure you should be trying any of your limbs at this?
I'm not going to be attempting to loosen him mechanically.
I'm going to try and rouse his spirit as a coil rouses the emotive force.
Now, listen here.
Now, listen here.
On the side of the head.
Yeah.
I slap him up the head.
Now, listen here.
Oh, God.
Oh, we can make speech again.
That lady in the airplane freaking out, but everyone's going to line the slapper.
Like, stop it.
Oh, for the airplane?
Oh, yeah.
It scrolls back.
You got people with, like, maces and bats.
It's all good.
Now, you listen here.
You may be in terrible physical anguish, but you are still a servant.
No, please tell me.
Shut up.
You are still a servant of the God Emperor.
And utilizing my authority as a rogue traitor.
Yes, we can kill you.
We can let you die in a bit.
But first, you need to perform your service to the God Emperor.
Or else, by Jove, we'll splay you out on the servitor line and we'll make you into a toilet servitor.
I won't feel pain, will I?
You will.
I'll make sure of it.
I'll make you double sure you feel twice as much pain and the pain of shame.
Come on, sing with me.
Oh, cheer up, my lads.
Tis to glory we steer.
Find something more in this wonderful year.
I'm going to make a leadership challenge.
This is a difficulty.
This is a difficulty six leadership test.
How hard can it be, right?
Thurston, I would love to.
Oh, he's fine.
Oh, my God.
One, two, three, four, five.
Cheer up, my lads.
Tis to glory we steer.
Hold on, hold on, hold on.
I want to die.
Help me, please.
I want to die.
I'm singing now because I want to die.
My cat is staring at me from the hall.
Thurston, is our ally going to be cooperative?
them uh well they seem like they seem like they that they can be coerced maybe if you promise
them something they really want now then if you answer all of our questions i promise we will kill
you oh the army sire oh that's your god now i want him to say the same thing
now then what is going on in this godforsaken servitor facility i don't think any of us were
actually paying attention to the briefing except that's not real man there was a briefing
yes you were there you know what we have to do and you were there and you were there
who was driving and i was there boris uh
i don't know i was just handed the gun and called to watch the door who told you this
oh well it was the productivity inspector the kennedy inspector
now what was the kennedy inspector doing all the way out here yes they should be back at
hybrid world kennedy in the kennedy sector
nothing wrong ever happened to the kennedy's
god damn it
fuck you my bit my bit my bit
missed it by that much
missed it by a millisecond
we've been on the same brain cell for like
sorry sorry i take the bit i hand it to you here you go man you can say it
thank you thank you thank you thank you no not you slaps this is his
stop trying to take bits asshole
it's all mine it's all mine take your crumb
uh aloysius yes seems so why again did we decide to spend all that time effort mode of force and
money on a scribe we didn't swell let me answer those points in order time uh well we have time
enough of rest we could time enough to make another machine use the motive force to cycle
that back into a reprobate which will otherwise be recycled anyway motive force like i just
mentioned is cyclical even if it flows life into that horrible waste of flesh that we call a servitor
before us it will go back into the motive force in due time and money i certainly didn't spend any
money i do this shit pro bono excuse me hello and that's why you have a place on my ship they
say putting a hand on his back yes sir what's your question can i die now no tell us about the
productivity inspector oh the product of the inspector is in the other room
well i'd ask you to show us and if any if anyone's listening um like yes they are being told that
there's an npc you know like in the other room that can answer their questions but instead they've
made a horrible flesh golem hmm all right well i i think it's a trap
sir you have done your duty for the god emperor oh i kill oh please
no you may now kill him oh yeah hold on before you tell me you can turn him into flesh beast again
isn't there somebody else that we forgot to ask uh how many licks does it take to get to the center
of a corpse star troll that's a question not a person are you asked i'll ask questions you don't ask us
oh i can't please please oh you know what i hate this bruise turn him into jelly okay
he just he just he just takes one in the other just crumps him into a meatball
and then he tosses it over into the pen and then he tries to get a hoop can i roll a weapon skill to
see if i score yes please the difficulty will be four now would it be weapon skill or ballistic skill
ah that's true ballistic skill does make more sense here please don't have a three in there
you got it you gotta pay interest on that a bit you all right all right we'll do we'll do ballistic skill
thanks same team all right all right d and four i got a dice pull a three
goby goby oh oh oh oh yo
what if bruce is falling
yo let's go
i got a six five and a five i got a four baby so i'm so mad you didn't complicate if you complicated

you hit him in the exact trajectory to restart his heart
all right yeah the flesh the flesh ball lands in the net nothing but net roost hell yeah
got it excellent whoever said you couldn't be dunking you've proven them wrong today oh thank you
what's up autism autism might be damn my ogren is ballin who is that anyway
that autism sounds like a cool guy yes that's right i'd love to meet you yeah
the great general oh i don't know he might be in the room with all of us
us
let us continue forth we will descend upon the foe we will overwhelm them we will leave none
alive and let's keep going leave leave none alive hey hold on that that sounds familiar did the
previous alive person say which room the other person was in because there's multiple rooms here
no i don't think that's a lot so you you enter here um as as you you enter the area um
a couple things that you find coming here as was kind of um indicated earlier there's a cylindrical uh
office space the walls are lined with stacks of alcoves lit only by flickering glove cogitators that
are on standby their cramped workstations and you see now um that dozens of uh administratum
personnel would would work here to track things um as you come in there are five well four now
administratum officers uh and as you as you come in uh three of them are now uh attempting to
interface with the cogitators in various ways well another one sort of turns at you as you come in
and looks up at all of you this old man with a bionic eye uh the robes of the administratum bone
fetishes an augmented hand hey hello hello
hello greetings i am captain olden rosh of the bird of paradise this is my retinue
hi good i'm glad you finally came come sit down
yes like some some tea have some tea
bruce looks around make us the tea
are there any comically like normal sized chairs around
uh
a size spoon
no there's no over comically oversized chairs no i mean like just any normal chair that was
meaning oh yeah yeah yeah behind all the desks okay cool he sits on one and it's just like
like you know you know like comically like the wood and everything i'm gonna assume it's wood
like because it was a bit of strong they love like scrolls and wood and shit that uh like the legs bow
like to the point of snapping but they don't it's like holding just barely
yes intolerance exactly as it should be good good i have a question yes isn't this the same room that
ruse pulped the guy into
um well well well that was the guard who's standing outside so now you've kind of come in and you've
seen inside these alcoves there there were further people inside it's just the guy with the gun who was
kind of guarding them got gotcha okay yeah thank you yeah okay welcome welcome welcome all right
good i'm glad i'm glad you're here you're here based on what i understand to investigate the
augmentic fabrication on the next floor down oh of course that's what we were that's what we were
told yeah exactly that's correct the augmentic whatever you said that's good good i i know the
administratum was said only the best and you look it very good very good all right good you
say i think i think that there might have been some people who went down there the other day
there was gunfire he like stares off with his haunted look and then then then the savages went mad
and we've eaten nutrient paste for the last month we've eaten nutrient paste my favorite then we had to
do the lotteries to get more nutrient paste aren't you an astrata worker there used to be 25 of us
not anymore did you turn that mental paste
oh yes oh well great would you like a candy bar oh yes please he hands he hands ruse a candy bar oh thank
you he starts eating it wait where did you guys that's ted that's ted
the last of him oh test dead tastes pretty good actually
yes he's got like just this deranged look in his eyes now
yes all the cogitators went down so all we could do was access the nutrient mat
the magos on the next level we think we think that they're involved in some kind of tech heresy
you wouldn't know anything about that would you not not ted heresy no no no no ted ted's the candy bar
keep it straight yeah holds up half-eaten candy bar
what does it taste like ruse candy bar with a hint of people interesting oh you have had people before
haven't you oh yes i know the taste chocolate and pork ugh so um i have to ask based on my like
time in in like uh the house and everything like that do i can i roll like a test to see if this dude
maybe has some level of heretical nature because he's he's acting very odd and i mean don't get me
wrong an imperial aministrat impersonism the normalest normal person in the world but
but he's very excited about eating ted
i mean wouldn't you be i don't know what ted tastes like i haven't eaten people i'm not ruse oh
ruse offers the candy bar here twice i'm sure you have definitely eaten people you live in the imperial
yeah corpse dark i i take i take um i take uh the candy bar from ruse and i have a bite of ted what
does he taste like a little salty like a salty chocolate like it's kind of like a sneakers that's
that's that's nice that's like that's not bad ted had high blood pressure
it comes screaming out of the candy bar and i fucking hell give me a difficulty uh three
uh insight check all right insight dn three bada bing bada b b b
she alas glass you'll either have to rely on a wrath or spend some glory
yeah we start with four glory to start a session you get your two wrath back sessions yeah he said
it he said it wrath and glory oh my god that's the game we did it uh no i'm not gonna re-roll i'm
just gonna roll with the way it is all right all right he's just nodding yes but yes the magos you
have to you have to you have to start you have to stop him like uh she's some all of the servitors
have gone quite random we've been trying to get the concertators back online you can see where
we're doing the rights and like you just hear the like chanting of the administratum clerics like
is it supposed to sound like hogwarts no it's kind of like the windows xp loading sound
they haven't been able to to access them to figure out all of the particulars
they shut down very suddenly you see
i see so the mission then is to go to the lower levels discover the source of this tech heresy and
bring these servitors offline yeah that was in the brief man yes it's a good thing that i'm just
summarizing it for those that weren't paying attention simsel
because why are you looking at me because you're so beautiful oh yes if you're sent here by the
administratum oh by the god emperor that's the mission
what we sent here by the administratum i don't remember i i don't know i'm still
nursing the hangover can i roll an inside that's all right that's all right we were sent here by the
fat man no no no no he he was the one with the buffalo sauce that's right that's right that was
completely that was that that was only on patreon you can watch that that's right
yeah that was a patreon the stogie narrative declaration the stogie may or may not have
removed that from all of our collective memories i'm not sure yet true
first comment he already fucks sorry the like three people who are like thirst um sorry who would
like to to to petition god first i i wanted to do a scholar check in and and hope to get a difficulty
too because i only get one dice uh the sea of ruse can confirm that the administratum
so um um it's gonna be difficulty three i i can't beat that that's what i'm saying for two i only
have eight dice for yeah i know a bit of info for yesterday i know it's gonna be a three
fuck have you spinning a glory it steals it from the group i'll allow that i don't get much of a choice
this is this is an ogren i didn't get close no six damn close though
admit a stratum sounds familiar it was definitely part of the briefing yeah that's right sir bruce says
with confidence
right well can i try and wreck my own memory
yes you can give me a scholar check difficulty three
easy
no
i did succeed i'm critical even yeah and get a glory back yay
i get a back the stratum was part of the briefing but all that you remember is they weren't necessarily
the people who tasked you with your mission
hmm
right
maybe
you know
someone else roll this
oh alden alden you're thinking a little too hard it doesn't matter who tasked us what matters is
getting there but we're already here now but like farther here
hmm i see the wisdom in your words very well for now let us move onwards
let us bring an end to the madly silly servo factory
the administrator adam adam just looks at aloysius just staring
thurston
i need to make tea
where is the tea cart
it's behind that desk
i'm assuming you just think my name is thurston for some reason it's very strange
i wasn't talking to you what are you talking about
what are you talking about why do you want tea
you asked the ogren to make tea when he would crush a cup between his fingers
you have no faith in him i have faith in him i could do it yes
he could do it look at him i'd like to see him do it he's got a delicate touch
yeah difficulty too okay i got two dies for that
prove me wrong let me let me make my assumptions
i i turn on my augmetic uh third third finger to shine a light in the area to make sure that roost
does definitely does not miss anything that's gonna make it worse for that it's so bright
do i get an extra die flashbang him i'll give you an extra die just for that absolutely yes
oh only rolled one last i clearly you've got a glory yet
oh yeah you just got a freebie glory you just got a freebie glory
yeah team do we want to spend a glory to make tea
yeah that's fine yeah we only spend glory for bins uh 10th or oh crap not 10th tea what's the
tea that kane and juergen drink all the time
i forgot how to read sorry when he starts getting to obscure lore i i blank
oh tana tana t yeah okay thank you chat tana t i love i love t all right here comes the dice roll
it's tea it's a fire there it is got two roost like with like trembling hands manages not to break
anything
you have to have faith in the goddamn bruce servants like i do with a pinky up he takes a sip
i'm not going to correct you on that statement for several reasons but
needless to say i am pleasantly surprised excellent work roose oh thank you sir
could you're a little unsure but i could show you some techniques later
oh i think you've got the makings of a great barista in you
do you all get to wear an apron with it sir if what you can wear whatever you would like mister
no he can't oh you have to wear an apron and a uniform
you don't want the old man continues to stare at you
can i help you scribe
i i might be i might be judging you
now why would that be what could wrong what wrong could i have possibly made against you
but i just it's just we have concitators that aren't working and i would just assume that you
could maybe fix them based on how you look that's a bit uh that's a bit racist he's just
having us do his imperium get over it we're so past that we're on the we're on levels of racism
you aren't even processing you have no idea what we do to aliens in these parts do you oh no it was
a compliment i'm i'm from a house world i love racism oh awesome high five
we all suffer under humanity's grace how ron is looking into the camera
it's just like that like sassy look like hands on hips
unimpressed that's funny it's like the kind of shit you have on a reality show where they get
interviewed like oh like someone oh yeah you just got kelron in a side truck like i didn't like it
when they said all that stuff about being racist no no dwight's true just something really weird and
pam is in the office looking at the camera now yes exactly i'm just saying you know you're gonna
you're gonna try to fix the computers this isn't like you know some spectral entity like the god
emperor has reached directly into my soul and is like look computers were mentioned cogitators were
mentioned you can fix the person with the tech skill that would be wrong whoa it would it would
be morally incorrect if you to do that yes however morality is an outdated concept did you just call
the emperor a spectral entity
we all never our eyes on him
you're so deaf at making that tea would you be a deer and restrain him oh yeah i grapple
wait i might complicate that's true that's true you should make
difficulty one difficulty one i like that we've just fully embraced the i want to i'm okay with
failures no instead you get a wrath critical and you do this to bank glory i see how it is oh yeah
i'm cheating you fuck you yeah yeah look you got the tea fucking glory back for the ones that i
rolled two sixes and uh in a five out of four were total six uh and i ruined die was a critical
with the six so uh i assume uh he would be like here on the map but roost grabs him like just
comically around his head what are you doing and he's respecting serving to the goddick
thanks joe cat for sending people over we appreciate it hope you have it's okay what's up joe cat how's it
going the ledge hope you had a good time we're playing some wrath and glory we're also streaming on
youtube and twitch at the same time so we appreciate you that if you are so twitch or so
youtube people you're wondering like what's going on uh uh our one of our peers gets joe cat who
played pathfinder second edition with us which he was excellent in uh and had a fantastic time with
him uh but hope you've been doing well man hope you've been kicking ass taking ass taking names
everything else 40k jolt and had to tell my folks i appreciate it man uh we're here with guest bricky by the
way and appreciate for bringing him along and stuff like that and uh yeah me and joe cat are
acquainted this is great great folks oh yeah it's like it'd be fun to get two two of you in a game
at some point one day but no thanks for sending people over joe cat appreciate that man
thank you so much i appreciate it uh but if it's okay with you i do apologize
here they go oh protection time now and continue we've got to get back to the important things of
your ogre restraining an old man yeah my ogre is currently comically holding an old guy right now
by the neck i got him restrained so thank you very much ruse now any self-respecting servant of the
god emperor would do well to not refer to him with such tithering and minimal titles
i don't suppose you've noticed the crimson rosette emblazoned on my chassis did you not
i do now
well you're not familiar i'm a member of the inquisition in name and function whatever doubts
you may have in the god emperor and his works well i'll be sure to find them out in due time
uh ruse if you'll be so kind if just adjust his head i need to access his cogitator
i just
no don't break his neck just hold him in place you may feel a popping sensation sir
like his neck has never been better
it feels really good right now but this guy better watch out there's he's gonna have a terrible blood
clot in 30 years
yeah yeah 30 years
one of bruce's uh doctorates was in chiropractic that's right that is true
well chiropractor do not worry do not worry old man he is a licensed ogren
oh thank thank the gods because if he wasn't licensed we would have been in some trouble ruse pauses
not yet ruse although if you want to uh make an adjustment i wouldn't
complain just don't kill him i need you to do a uh i need a proposal i need you once someone make a
leadership test so ruse doesn't rip his head off ruse do not rip this creature's head off
difficulty four understood all right can i assist pause thurston permission to do that
is that okay okay okay oh i i yep you're good you're fine okay but yes i did look at that you're good
okay you got four exactly ruse restrains himself okay shut up right thank you ruse now my dearest
friend let me take a little look at what goes on at the marvels of the omnisai inside that
waste of biology that you call ahead and uh loisus will take off his hand pull out his
probe and begin to set to work on the cogitator both attempting to repair but
predominantly trying to glean information from within the unit yeah uh give me a
oh this will be a difficulty four tech check it's gonna take you about 10 minutes to do
okay sounds good now uh there is is there any additional penalty to this check at all or is
it's just a flat check because i'm just checking for something that i have difficulty four sounds good penalties here
that is six successes and one shift okay um so with a shift um you are able to fiddle and repair um
um some of the cogitators functions um first of all uh you're gaining some data this is a prison
complex area uh the cogitator has listings of prisoner records who've been sent here um of note over the
past um 2.5 years uh the volume of prisoners has a massively increase this this generally corresponds with the uh
the creation of the great lift
now what you also discover is that there are countless
productivity reports that reflect a greater pressure
from the administratum on this facility to increase servitor output
finally
the details indicate that there are over 400 servitors active within this facility
never mind i think we should go
no no no no no no i i think what's a couple of servitors to to this merry gang of lunatics i lost my leg
correct
yeah like we're not even up we're not even up to double digit servitors yet
the fucking orc bionic starts like wheezing
like we haven't even hit double digit servitors yet let alone the triple digits and the captain's already
in pieces
well i endeavor to not have us get completely mulched by all 300 plus servitors in the facility
i can take them
yes i'm sure you could i will i will say maybe um this the the captain in pieces is a bit strong
i'd argue he's in one piece that's a bit insulting to aloysus
well all right then where what happened the leg they got cut off
i call that a second piece
isn't it in the bit is it really remembers
i think they put it in some sort of meat packing plant if i'm not mistaken
or perhaps it got shipped off down the servitor line at this point i've grown accustomed to not
asking too many questions do you think it may be ted oh yeah it might be a candy bar
yes oh how nutritious how delicious i'll get you i swear to god i'll get you
now mr administrator do you have a name
oh it's lothar that's a good name yes yes lothar scott is my name very good very good russ
would you be so kind as to accompany me bring lothar and let's just have a little bit of privacy
oh roger i carry him by his head and just
oh they're going to do this previously come into my office the room where i lost my leg
okay oh how you got this office here oh it's lovely isn't it all right yes all right i'm going to lean
over to roose and i'm going to whisper in roose's ear all right now roose yeah i'm about to say
something when you whisper get closer to your mic i'm pretty close to my mic just making sure
podcast listeners can hear you sir now go ahead all right then now roose i'm about to say some things
some things that might not be true this is called a deception yes so when i tell this man something
i need you to pretend like what i say is true when it isn't all right do you understand what i have just
told you oh jesus
past problems something from your past comes back to haunt you an old wound flares up in your pain and
you're distracted by a memory he gets a flashback from his old commissar who's yelling at him going
do you understand the roots do you the outdoor is fading and coming over the trenches roots
you have to remember the message do you understand if you don't remember the message we're all gonna die
and roose's one eye blinks to the other one and he's like yes sir yes sir he's running through all
these trenches explosions going everywhere he finally gets back to the command tent it's all i'll
message for you sir and they're like it's like what get so good what was the message what is happening
in the front those dastardly out i've been advancing on it's like rabbit dogs we need to know what's going
oh my god he goes uh uh my accomplish i forgot um and then they all died
so he forgets exactly what alvin said
very good roose i'm glad i chose to trust in you now mr admitted startum clerk
you need not yes lothar you need not worry yes oh good
are not
servants of the god emperor what what we have been sent here what what by your true masters to oversee
you think he looks over to you roose did you know about this roose kind of like picks it like you
know like you're like holding like a i don't know i'm trying to imagine like you're holding a puppet
like by the head and then you like hold him out turn him to you like like i'm facing him and he kind
of does that little move and then he shrugs this is news to me hold on a second all right earlier you
were swearing to gods now which gods were those god emperor well yes but you said gods are multiple
plural yeah pearl that couldn't have been a slip of the tongue that couldn't have been a simple
misunderstanding that you would simply make when you were put on the spot to have to talk about
something yeah it's not like you have to make a mental shift to say god imprint okay might i make
a reasonable counterpoint yes no i'm old
so real
i'm old like he kind of like hold on real quick sir he kind of like puts him like behind his back like
kind of like tucks him behind with his head
like it's like obviously you can still hear him when he gets like so is it not the average
lifespan of like a human like 200 something i'm sorry i couldn't understand a word you just said
is it the is it the lifespan of like a human person like 200 or something sir
oh the roundabouts give or take a good few rejuvenates i've heard tales of humans living to 300.
he brings the guy back how old are you i'm 308 damn
damn so you so you just
i'm very old insight now now what was yeah sure sure difficulty two all right all right it's not
to see if he's old it's to see if he doesn't actually worship the dark god okay that seems fair
he just for gore and i got three successes he's he doesn't but now is really worried that you've
told him you don't worship the god emperor that's fine that's funny
next season oh yeah let's figure out who we worship oh boy that was a complete misunderstanding
obviously i did worship the dark god
why would you say such a thing because i see and like all of you outside just hear the old
men yelling that's heresy it's because i assumed you worshipped the dark gods because i didn't
realize you were just so old you forgot that there's more than one god emperor
so i was hoping to lie could you just spill the beans but now i believe that you're genuinely just an old
guy i hear the word heresy screened in the other room and i look over for a half second and then i go
back to like twiddling with a coffee cup
or a tea tea cup sorry tea cup yeah how is the tea by the way i want to have a sip of it
um it it is like a a strong nutty flavor but also with a little bit of salt it seems oddly familiar
yeah distilled human
especially the nutty flavor all right i'm 12.
okay i'm sorry
i feel like i've had this type of tea before have you sorry i'm 12.
i feel like i've had this type of tea
minus one's fucking dirt
they they celebrate pride on my house
oh my gosh
all right well sorry
yeah all bad
we could just say sorry and that makes up for everything yeah i'm rich yeah you put me through
drama all right how much do you want i open up my pocketbook oh good good you're a good little
boy i will take all 300 crowns that'll be that yeah yeah right there you're right 300 yeah oh very
good all right there we go here you go 300 crowds
why don't i go ahead and throw in a planet there for good measure oh excellent okay um so um
that's like well 50. see here yeah yeah yeah what's that what's like what's like we're
i'm just uh just i'm just checking as you're checking uh can you give me a difficulty one wealth check
yeah yeah yeah no worries oh let's see what's my wealth all right you got two well
all right we're just roll two dice
it's on your equipment page but i don't think it lets you roll the dice from there anyways so
just roll you roll two dice okay two dice you got it
that is a one four and a one by offering this old man uh a planet and 300 crowns your wealth has
gone down ooh actually roost throw him down this pit so what i was gonna ask
yeah oh gee i'm just noticing this now oh thanks man uh uh roost was gonna look to uh
hold it and be like do we do we further need this person's assistance and all quests uh
i don't think so are there stairs near me
yes i throw them down the stairs there there is a basketball hoop oh right i throw them at the hoop
that's true okay because this requires a lot of a lot of strength can i use athletics instead
you're really metagaming here but i'll allow it thanks man what difficulty number feel free to make
it higher because it's athletics it's gonna be five okay yeah just make that fair uh that dice
fold seven let's go goby hey come on get him oh my god hey hey dear uh dear team uh can i spend
a can i spend like two extra glory just to try and guarantee to to throw an old man into a basketball
hoop that's randomly in the servitori manufactorum you're only allowed to spend glory for bits so
okay that's one yes as opposed to this very serious application the worst i i prefer the idea of the
failed basketball throw and the complication yeah let's see what happens we're only complication
oh no again so after the tantrum saying that he didn't remember uh bombs begin to drop he begins to
have like a thousand yard stare is like an aldar you know pretty much comes it's a striking scorpion
uh comes and starts chopping everyone down everyone is just slaughtered and dead but his commissar is
still alive but but no no no no his commissar got uh cut down so it's only just him so he looks at the
crumpled body of his commissar thinking he has enough mass to deal enough damage because he had
to drop his gun during the trench front to get there fast enough so he picks up the commissar
similar to the old man and just in his blind like you know flashback he's having a ptsd he throw it
in his vision he's throwing his commissar you know because he thinks there's a uh striking scorpion
eldar there but in fact it's the old man it's in a reaction he goes he just screams and throws this
guy uh and he completely misses the hoop but he does throw the old man oh oh oh my black my lungs
i'm dying sorry so i'd like to walk out and because i i just heard a man
and get like like banked off the the back of a of a hoop where in this room is this man
um so here let's like let me one second they don't have a token for this individual so i'm just
going to use a uh let's think here use one of these classy uh imperial citizens here
um i'm gonna just assume that the it's right over here he's been tossed
ah okay um i'd like to i'd like to go i'd like to go over to him
i'd like to i'd like to undo my little my little fingy and like have like a little like a little
finger prod kind of like one of those ones where you uh uh uh where you kind of like like learn
people's stuff i don't want to i want to uh go out to him and i'll poke it into his into his like
neural interface kind of like um oasis does okay okay all right do you want to give me a tech check
i'd like to yes yeah um difficulty e5 five five yippee heavy it's gonna be heavy it's a dying old
man's miu link oh my god jesus christ
impressive that'll be a seven uh with what a wrath critical and a shift hell yeah yeah
um so that gets you almost all the same data that uh oasis managed to pull out but you you're able
to sift through a few other data data logs in this dying old man's mind um and you find a full map of
the manufactorum though very good okay so um i want to look at this map and i want to i want to look
deep into the heart of the complex is there anything any particular place that like really calls to me
or stands out uh give me one sec here no worries no worries
imagine everything to you now uh i don't know if you zoom out to are you guys all seeing the map now
the full map oh sorry sorry i am not no i'm not yet sick i assume i'm able to see the full map at the
point yeah one sec one sec once i might be able to do this i think i think i am i'm not sure oh yeah
there you go oh god oh oh oh oh oh there's a life oh good lord
oh this is so you can tell that you're on the upper level here and then there's floor two and floor
three what is that big network of nodes on floor three
it's the power plant i see i see
so we gotta destroy that thing so so i i i take out the map that i i kind of like i go i go over
to a loisus i'm like hey man you want to touch tips and i put my finger out
why did you make it sound like that clip that do you want everybody do you want the map or not man
well it is like they say
you only live once oh okay forever that was never done not all of us live once i mean
you probably do i don't see you living more than one lifetime you don't have a cognitive backup like i do
kelrana do you know you're a psyker have i lived more than once uh hold on i'm gonna put my fingers
to my temples i'm gonna think about it really hard okay do you want to use your psychic powers to think
about it or are you just yeah yeah yeah i'll roll i'll roll a psychic mastery test give me a sign of
science or yes i think mastery actually give me that um let's go with uh difficulty oh
i look i didn't even have to you didn't even have to say it look all right all right all right
yeah kelrana's gonna put her fingers to her temples the the the there's going to be a roiling of psychic
energy and then uh i remember to see your rolls item uh oh yeah i i got seven successes with a
complication then i rolled a one on the complication table um and i lost an item i'm already on it don't
worry all right so yeah thirst i'm concentrating i have my fingers to my temples there's a thud as
something falls out of my pocket but i'm concentrating she goes yeah in a past life
you were a beautiful mountain goat your life was simple better it's on an open fields what happened to you
okay that sounds boring
aloysius that sounds boring
not really not material in my mind
not really becoming of your character but i can see that man of your stature no doubt is full of
hot air piss and vinegar just like goats just like goats yeah
that's been a very long time back we haven't had goats in millennia
yeah i told you it was a past life that's quite far back
do you want to wait not man uh fine you know i said i was going to stop having gay experiences
in manufactoriums but here we are
and what is what is what are we doing here fam what is me about the transference of data
in the 41st millennium everybody's gay get with the picture god
off screen can roose and i have solved the plot
we come back and we solved everything
we can go it's over how how coincidentally everything before our break
oh yeah we did it we did it we all it was easy honestly
oh so i imagine we all have the map now
yeah we all have the map yeah first we'll be andrew over and go ignore this map
what the hell are you motherfuckers doing we're looking at the map oh oh my god there's more than
one room in this place there's more than one floor too we've already been in two rooms all right well
let's utilize imperial discipline and completely ignore everything that has just happened so far
and let's make a clean sweep of it i said now he's dead oh all right all right there we go i say
we head down to the second floor we find the source of these heretical abominations and we put an end to
it ideally without destroying the entire facility ideally ideally that there's negotiable room on that
right so it's not required that we don't blow the whole place up it's the only way
the only way we would ever blow this place up is if someone bombarded it that's not something we
got to worry about simpson i swear to god i'm going to hit you
gold you'll have to hobble over to me first and i like like roose's eyes god
so i i'm sorry small issue i can't move my character because i'm beneath the old man token
and that's your pin it's a pinning check
for the rest of your life excellent i was i was gonna say like i was gonna scamper off and go like
i wanted to imagine when um when alden you know say gosh god and bruce looked over he starts
walking towards him that like that scene for the mummy with the guy going through all the religious
symbols
okay you're good
the help moves on bruce points at the back and goes
maybe we should destroy all that probably i'll follow sims or he seems to
know what he's doing no you will not oh my
wow you must keep your heresies under wraps you're losing your team
it's not cool to be blasphemous
right god imagine like doing something that's heretical
look this looks pretty bad right now but you know the surefire way to keep your teammates on your
side is to drown simsul in motor oil yes well i mean i was going to kill one of the subordinates
in front of them to oppose your order and rule but that works too i know you
you two must have gone way back
no i i just met him he's he's just he's just sort of a prick honestly
i was going to be totally cool about it
aloysius puts an arm around captain alden raj's shoulders oh captain
it's a beautiful thing you know you don't have to lie to me i see the signs clear as day the sun
rising over olympus moms i know it when i see it what the hell are you talking about
oh oh you know no i don't you know what do i know the lois just walks away
damn you all wait wait wait wait i'd like to i'd like to i'd like to clarify so aloysius is also
following simsul oh no he's he's he's just remarking on just an interpersonal development that he noticed
and heading in the direction of simsul of simsul yeah okay excellent uh uh so i'm sorry because i'm
not quite sure about this map where would the stairs be okay oh you mean an escalation so yeah yeah so um
the area you're about to go and i'll describe it but then over to the west here coming up this area
there's an elevator right here to the west the sort of rectangular area i'm pinging it
gosh i got you okay i see it yeah yeah instead of giving us like a detailed map they gave us a
hologram thing we get the guests on so it's right you know it's fine theater of the mind with a little
map my mind is my mind is thinking about going down those steps well okay how would i describe the
room you've just walked into good idea i i i moonwalk backwards fearless
all right moving forcing bruce back in time okay all right the floor of this area is a wide
pool of foul smelling liquid biomass that crackles with electrical charges and ejects gouts of choking
steam there's the complex grilled walkways that move around here um electrified railings um seem to
move around and you can see what appear to be eight spider-like servitors suspended beneath the railings
underneath the grill uh are the railing they trundle along and they dip their limbs down into the
enormous vats and start injecting chemicals um into rows of floating outsized humanoid shapes
uh if you have medicaid you can give me a difficulty three test i will do that for you
i've got a decent medicaid i believe oh uh oh it should have been dn4 but i got four successes
no it's difficulty three um these are uh partially grown ogrens
oh you are walking over a field of vat grown ogrens i look at ruse i look back to the vat grown or ogrens i look back at ruse
i like to assume that they all just have ruse's face too like in
just like yeah yeah well i don't really know if i'm to call this good or bad news but um
it looks like they're growing more ruses down there look uh ruse is not the correct phrase
to be a ruse or reese i think that's a good idea whoever did that decision very small
uh-huh yeah well they're a bunch of uh reese down there and um a bunch of big scary ass looking
what's your word for me servitors very smart very small very small thank you thank you very
smart very smart very smart very smart is that an echo in here very small
uh i'm gonna point uh down the grate for a loisus
yeah i think we got a problem in the floor underneath it what what do you mean
uh looks like they're growing more reese oh i've your messiah this rose and rose of reese
like the peanut butter and chocolate no no there's some of the pieces i'll kill you
oh not the reese pieces over there some of the pieces over there
by the god emperor it's an it's an entire part of ogren i think they're called gaggles
maybe a knuckle i believe knuckle is the technical term i like the reference of the stampede of me
oh stampede of meat stampede of meat stampede of me no stampede of me no no but stampede is a verb
wait wait hold on hold on everyone hold on everyone bruce yes sir say the word barbecue sauce
barbecue sauce barbecue sauce barbecue sauce barbecue sauce barbecue sauce barbecue sauce oh
interesting free thinker true that was all you ted lasso fans out there
uh so uh aloysus yes what's going on here why are they speaking what ruse says
that is an excellent question normally there shouldn't be any reason why these vat grown
clones should have any kind of psychic link to ruse of all people
now of course there's several different explanations one could be they are conditioned
to respond to a master copy which even then raises how the hell did they manage to get a copy of ruse
the other is that ruse may have implants in him that he doesn't know
why ruse yes sir let me inspect your big meaty head okay he leans down
okay okay okay okay hook in munine as aloysus motions to the skulls on his chest i need you to
assist me on this one as they decouple and begin to hover around ruse and provide some additional scans
and displays as i'm going to attempt to see you're on the ship you're not even part of this arc right now
yeah that's next season true we're just gonna call from him just to hang out you are receiving a collect
call from the crumper i'm gonna call you about your ship 16 year old i've taken over your ship and i've
installed a bombardment cannon pray i do not install more of them oh no whatever will we do please
don't install more bombardment captains that's more than he can install anyway i swear i i i can't keep
and doing you know i'm just i i'm just gonna start shooting next time i hear something well you can't
shoot without a bombardment cannon now can you yeah all right all right time to load my hot shot volley gun
target it i charge i charge i charge all the roostes charge
i spend a half like ammo again no dark tide of all the yes i'm like it's the i'm just gonna
say it's the mutant modifier oh god it's the football team they're coming i i have to i have to
fucking distract you remember one of our earliest dark tide fucking moments where we got that mutant
modifier where it was like nothing but fucking snipers and we were in like the worst predator
movie ever i will never forget like the red fucking lights coming out of the darkness like 18 of them
haunts my dreams never again never uh we should play that modifier regardless um ruse chris leans down
only allows uh aloisis to look at his head thank you sir uh now i would like to i i don't know would
i make a tech check or a medicaid check to see if he yeah probably medicaid to see if he has any kind
of aug medics yeah um let's see let's see what you got inside that big head of yours okay
be really funny with my big ass dice pool if i fucking wrath with his role it'll be funny if you
complicate and get past event we have to make ruse live more trauma randomly that would be incredibly
funny we got a point of glory we get five successes hell yeah there you go remember falling glory
all right so you with that you know that um ruse is a it's a fine thoroughbred ochre and there's no
modifications going on here
weird weird weird weird weird well we can rule out the augmetics portion of that there are none to be
found in you ruse you are a fine stallion of an ogrim oh thank you sir thank you sir thank you
maybe we'll find a solution to this conundrum in the levels below
maybe we will uh i would assume any kind the power plant likely won't have the answer to that
but some kind of control module likely would yeah oh hold a moment i have a stratagem on how we can
get past this room ah as you can tell we are currently surrounded by tombs and tombs
of just stating ogrens that seem to copy everything ruse says isn't that right bruce yes sir yes sir yes
sir yes sir yes sir chances are we go down there they may all become aggravated and attempt to attack
us but what if they're too busy copying what ruse says to do so
so you're telling me we need roose to talk the whole time
roose yes sir i would like for you to tell us a very long and slow story
and follow us while you tell it
here's your improv card
asshole thanks everybody
they didn't they didn't just throw you the ball they spiked that
fucking ball i mean it is revenge for the shit i pull on them so i definitely understand
so it's definitely deserved um all right you guys will see you get to the map and i'll start
well sir there was once upon a time come on come on let's go that you know i i was able to basically
hardjack uh one of those moving vehicles at one point and so that's a dead end over there i don't
think that connects over to the thing i think you have to go over this way for it as i was going
over maybe maybe simpson kind of knows the way essentially you shut up about simpson i'm sorry
yeah i'll follow simpson you know at one point i also was able to draw my mech one time you know
there's a big robot thing when the orcs were attacking me and the commissar you know were able
to get to one of those big little orc things i mean those really big orc things were just going to
walka walka walka walka walka walka walka walka walka walka i was able to get installed one of the
big mech things and basically you know piloted that way and it was ready for interesting
get in quickly uh roose hangs or hangs out into the exit like a dark tide player and just keeps
shooting into the crowd and not getting in the elevator when he's shooting
in the elevator damn i i i use my i use my light on my finger and i double tap middle mouse button
on the uh on the elevator shooting at the player like get in first gets in
all right with that the elevator closes
there's two buttons in here
uh we'll try three uh two of them are selection button um you can have a servitor or a mechanical uh
travel down uh and then the other is is to lower you to the next level
wait i'm confused by the server mechanical oh so you get a choice between having um a servitor be the
one who moves the elevator or having the elevator move under just full-on machinery make the right
choice yeah should people move elevators or machines
which one gets us to the power section quicker
it's not about that sorry you weren't here in the first episode
it's a reference to that um
it was a it's it's it's a stupid oh oh wait i remember this now you we on the roof you guys
talked about this yeah yeah yeah yeah the the like is a servitor like is it better to have a servitor
do it or just a machine do it like the question comes up more than you'd think ruf raises a hand
dance room i know how to solve this puzzle
by all means please i press all the buttons at the same time yeah i knew i knew it you're that
a little child who's like i want to press all the floor buttons all right all right with that the elevator
doors close with a shutter and it begins let's take it right here hey everyone and also that guy you
know what you did the nardec crew have unleashed a brand new merch drop over at narrative declaration
dot shop featuring the return of the oh so comfortable eclectics t-shirt along with several
amazing designs referencing hilarious moments from the campaign we also have holographic stickers and
magnets available so you can rep your favorite council member of arborea in addition to shirts
we have a new poster being added along with a new beautiful game mat design it's like a really
big mousepad really put your cards on and feel safe eclectics aren't getting all the love however
we still have plenty of rock rind merch available at a restock of the favored rock rind enamel pins
grab them quick while supplies last and speaking of the eclectics merch will be around until the
end of january in 2026 so be sure to snatch it at narrative declaration dot shop before it disappears
forever and with that thank you so much for your support this year it's all been absolutely amazing
be sure to check the public post on patreon for what's happening next on narrative declaration bye
all right you head down the elevator i'm going to drop some tokens
we got elevator music
it's dupe by dupe
no not again again
guys if you can uh relive it just go back and comment on that video yeah 90 percent of our
comments are us yeah we're here from warhands yeah warhands brought me here um
the elevator the pneumatic pneumatics hiss as the elevator reaches the bottom level of where it is going
culture culture culture um one sec here sorry it's being a bit of pain there we go okay
it's actually not this elevator um
i've got to yeah okay no this is okay um so it comes to a
a halt in the doors slowly open these metallic doors that are inscribed with the cog mechanicus
moments later you you see this telltale sign
what is outside the door is a whirring set of assembly lines
you can see that there are magnetic uh multi-tiered assembly uh lines that are moving
around with a dizzying network of suspended automated conveyor belts that show
oddly constructed servitor augmentics moving around construction construction servitors with
no lower half are fixed to the assembly lines at regular intervals throughout the area bent over
the assembly lines and only springing to life when a viable subject is placed
you can see the remains of the man that you you'd seen in the upper level being processed through the line as you emerge
as in these construction servitors are working away adding metallic bolts uh adjusting bits of flesh to make room for other augmentations to be added in
oh you mean the guy that we didn't save when he was being torn apart on the table
um yeah well when you came in too there was one that was yeah ejected down as well so
oh yes yes okay okay aloysius
from why in this facility do all these servitors receive their uh programming
you're all looking at aloysus you good bro they shut him down they shut me down
he's thinking about it i think my oh sorry my screen everything went blurry it's like oh that
shouldn't be happening uh oh uh oh no you good okay boss yeah no i'm not i'm not having a stroke
yet i've i've confirmed that is my eyes my eyes were bugging out oh
sorry about that captain i was thinking about terrible things that i have done and regretting
none of them what was that where are these servitors likely receiving their instruction on what level
is that occurring oh i have to guess thurston can i make let me get tech check for that or is that
be a scholar test um that it's probably a scholar test let's say difficulty three based on the map that
you have okay uh oh that's five successes one shift in a complication which is
harsh environment the environment changes masonry collapses revealing another path or potential foe
the terrain becomes difficult flooded or visibility lowers
um not a good thing to have an elevator yeah all of the conveyors begin to crackle with electricity
is that good tell that moving through here without being shocked is going to be difficult now
as though everything is hypercharged uh you would realize that it is on the third floor it is that
area in the sort of bottom uh right hand corner of the map um that you would des you would know is
that's where programming occurs delightful delightful well captain if you are so inclined to know
where these servitors are receiving their instructions and programming is likely on the third floor at the
other end of the manufactorum that is where qa will be taking place now if qa was actually working as
intended and not producing scrap code affected servitors or maybe something else entirely i'm just
surmising based upon the intel that was relayed in the meeting
a servitor walks up to the captain as you're speaking ruse you see a servitor come up to your captain
i slap him away no it it it has one arm and then it's where its other arm should be
is attached to a hydraulic tube on its back and it begins to spray water um not at like a painful level
but like you know like a whole water like a cleaning level yeah like a cleaning level
onto onto alden's leg all right oh no the new one the new leg the new like yes i i wish to grapple
him to stop him to stop him from spraying clean clean clean i think he's a strength versus his strength
yep clean clean clean uh it's gonna get a four with a point of rune it's gonna break free yeah it breaks
free from you ruse and just like spraying down your it's not damaging in any way but like clean must
clean clean cleanliness is holiness clean clean i know get away from me get away from me
let's say let's say i'm linger limbering on my peg leg as fast as i can must purge the uncleanliness
clean clean oh don't let him get me
i don't i turn i turn to eloysis and i go see on my world we outsourced our qa is there a reason you
keep it here yes why would you ever outsource your quality assurance out of the factory itself
the best mind should be in production not on some far-flung world across the galaxy
clean clean clean clean yes but why would we have serfs do that we have plenty of magi here who need
to wet their chops if it was anything seems like i'm beginning to think that you don't appreciate the
final points of manufacturing i i use the things people manufacture for me i don't make the things
exactly you're a consumer your mind like many imperials is just let me see what new toy
the adeptus mechanicus can whip up how many chapter serfs can we possibly throw into a blender
to render out a fine holiday roast you of all people should appreciate the use of serfs into a blender
well of course i do their mortal lives they mean nothing to me in the grand scheme of things but if
you're wasting them wanted there's no purpose to their destruction then there's no purpose to destroy
them if there's one other leg is unclean it starts polishing your your boot on your good leg
all right i'll allow it i'll allow it
clean clean
i i want to look around are there any other cleaner servitors around
you don't see any other janitorial servitors no
it just appears to be this one we should keep him i agree with with the tall one
thank you that means a lot
i don't really keep me for cleaning yeah bud come on what should we name him thank you sir
and he looks at the captain then looks at roose you know i think i can get used to this individual
you know no back talk nothing of that sort i tell you what we'll call you
clues
yeah like all right sir clean clean clean
in i tell you what close not even no i noticed that fencott would have been funny but
yes i suppose cruces fine they're both servile and serve their own purposes true come along cruce and i
have roose i suppose
i i feel like we should just like walk with the servitor yeah
come on bud come on you can make it please we adopted him do a thing one sec
this will surely not be a problem later no of course not no how could it be there's no
consequences are for other people
he only uses his power washer for good that's true
well there's that power washing simulator game that is 40k dlc oh yeah i forgot they
did a 40k dlc for that which is one of those games where you just kind of go in there and then
someone who doesn't know 40k as you're washing the machine you're just like oh this one kills a lot of
people this is a hurricane bolter
is the servitor this this weird shadow figure yeah that yes that is the janitorials that's the icon
that we use for someone who has not submitted art on the page so i think you picked well why did you
give that one to me uh in case you need to fill up more space we needed more than one person i thought
you'd use the art look i was using the art i thought that was one of the people no
it's like we even know the uh here i'll fix it in the list with all the people uh you see our all right
fine one sec no no no no no no no no no no no no you don't get to get away with this one sec one sec
hold hold it's all in our production chats and everything oh yeah i don't have time to
read the whole production chat yeah yeah clean clean clean you know fine fine fine this this this will
make infinitely more sense everybody there you go what the hell is that it's a blue and white dinosaur
clean clean explain explain yourself they made him a dinosaur that is xeno cruises uh character so
thank you xeno cruises
i don't get it is that what is that a dinosaur why what why is there a dynaminoid in the factory he's
cleaning you clean clean i said actually what 40k dinosaurs are called i'm gonna shit myself okay
yeah 40k worth i spend a wrap yeah
well oh no i'm sorry that wrath point went to making you shit i guess
that's the best question come along my dynaminoid friends we've got cleaning to do clean clean clean clean
no backtalk
damn the captain's really moving so uh
uh getting acclimated to help us i assume we all move together because moving on the map's kind of a
deal uh yes we all move together as a group towards the over this metal rafter
and with this like large i assume it's like a wall of maybe windows of seeing this power
sort of whoa whoa whoa or something because we all go together over to this other room
um this is now kind of picture on the screen for uh folks so if thursday we're gonna yeah now now
you have time i'm just trying to like narrow it for the uh audio listeners i'll move our tokens up
here um yeah for all your listeners we're pretty much go over the like these metal raftings we see
all these conveyor belts to our left of like people being processed and everything and we finally get
over to the end of the other side with our cleaning servitor uh who's in a cruise thanks man and um
let me get over to the other side there's him what's up um spoiler alert it's more assembly lines
here um as you as you get by here uh you can see however that there appear to be several more
servitors around here there is um to the northeast a patrolling gaggle of servitors uh they are combat
servitors again so drop them down you can sort of see them patrolling up along this way there are
two gun servitors and two combat servitors that are sort of up here and you can you catch them in line
of sight they haven't targeted you yet um but like definitely they are they are on patrol around here
like patrolling this assembly factory down below yeah so they're basically going like this essentially
along the the sort of outer edge moving moving westwards as you're as you're approaching here
gotcha they got a little patrol back and forth pattern yeah they're like you can tell that they're
basically going to like here all the way to here sort of a thing hmm are we thinking sneaky
bruce kneels down chris is the thing on his wrist the scene changes to the middle gear solid
that you meet me which one's the sir oh yes yeah yeah what can i do about it no yeah wait hold on
we can't both fit in the window here fight fight fight fight this is a stealth mission sir
yes i i i completely agree central butt out
butt out
i need to let you know sir i am traded in cqc in case we ever needed it for this occasion but
you're too far away i push the cleaning servitor out of the way and i walk past uh alden a little upset
clean clean clean
hello don't you know don't don't don't push clues like that
after all he's done
why'd you name him quite close because he's like he's like roost but for cleaning
where
damn what would you have named him we don't we don't name our servitors we use their designation
loisus back me up
hmm
on one hand
to see captain lose his mind getting proven wrong again
the other i feel somewhat insulted by this consumerist night piece of
wow
bit of a bit a little late to start taking stances isn't it
look it's why why are you in my head narration it's just for the moment you know that
we'll go out for beers beers later it's okay oh oh sorry i i forgot that you don't have the echo
effects like the other one hey can i join your headspace too well everybody's here does everybody
want to come in aloysius's headspace right now well i can commune with many more headspaces in the
other room hello everyone i'm the mental projection aloysius has of captain olden rosh
gosh aloysius you're so cool oh thank you
you ever want to like point out to people
do you ever want to point out to people like the deconstruction of sanity i would direct them to this
anyways carry on with the mental conversation i'm actually really enjoying this so keep going
thank you my very supportive and very real image of captain alden rosh that i keep in my databanks
i'm so glad that you're so proud of me that opinion would never change
you know what i can't believe aloysius subs to an olden vtuber
wow and if we can get six gifted subs i promise i will not take any prisoners
on our next adventure into pirate space
you hear that yeah i apologize it just it's okay it's okay zord i appreciate it
you know back in my day we hate we we had plenty of youtubers
when was your days oh you know
the mental projection of simsul doesn't know yeah you know yes you know you know you know
oh yeah i know
hey uh captain alden rosh i have a question i have a question if i may during this scene
yes show a mental projection of the gm yeah what's the mental projection of ruse thinking right now
this is gonna be a really tough stealth mission i'll train for this for never
i'll think if i do a couple roles i'll think i'm a ball if i go to create the crate
i'll really go to the place this olden
so in in the real world on simsul yes to walk to it to walk up to ruse
and basically be like hey ruse i think the best way to go about this
is to turn into a ball and roll many many times into the line thinking
that's because you've got a good brain on you ruse i do have a good brain
you know all those other ogre we saw up there yeah what were they doing they just
know in there or all could turn into a ball and you know what they weren't what's that
hidden we saw all of them that means all could be hidden and better you can be the stealth they
weren't oh you weren't my leadership yet
i don't know first of all what you're doing thurston may i make a request
oh no no you you inflicted this on speaker earlier so now you have to inflict it on breaking
so no no the thing i'm asking for my stealth die is two may i yes i'm trying to think of like
the eight action for pathfinder in this one this logic uh can i have leadership ricky yeah can he
succeed in the leadership test to give me one more die no he'll give you two more die because he gives
you half so oh hell yeah uh wait so what am i doing nothing you're just okay inspiring words oh hell yeah
so as everyone's figuring things out bruce kind of goes don't worry i'll take the initiative and
roost just kind of likes just kind of balls and starts rolling down the stairs
what the hell he can roll down to basically kind of like behind uh the plan is the
up top who are with all the guns don't see him as he kind of get like rolls all the way to here
uh basically the the noise right back here the sheer volume i want okay astronomical
i want i want zero suit roost fan art please that's what we need
metal gear solid um what's the difficulty number um to distract yourself from a bunch of servitors
um i'm stealthing through right two self test two two two all right stealth and roll right now
oh
one success and i complicated god there's a i want i don't want to put us in combat and be the guy who
do that so i want to spend a wrath to re-roll we'll re-roll i still fail
you can start pumping glory into it now hey team can i spend two glory yeah yeah thanks thanks for
enabling my hijinks here's one die that's a one i just need to aim win man come on
uh
yeah
complication though yeah see the complication i wrote a six on that die for warp interference
the chaos gods are watching for a moment you feel the eyes of one of the ruinous powers on you they
frighten you learn one of your secrets or cause a supernatural mishap
give me a second there's a thing here for this
oh good so like i do get there so i'll just barrel roll over
and he kind of like tactically like unrolls and hides behind the wall
he's like i'll just put up to the wall in stealth mode you don't i think i got through
out damn i i'm kind of like moved like that white boy quirked up
i'm kind of sitting there like like a little a little aghast not really thinking he could have
ever done that why the hell did you ask him to do that if you didn't think he was going to do it
oh you know i believed him no you didn't you're aghast and a gawk well there's
simpson i want you to close your eyes right now and imagine an apple can you do it
i close my eyes and imagine an apple do you see it yeah i see it right you've surpassed my
expectations keep this up and i push alden
fall down the stairs all right you prick i'll
fucking remember that one
is the is the ground i want to i want to follow alden along with it but like is the ground
is the ground slippery from all the water i'm not done i haven't done like the the complication yet
oh there's a warp thing that's right okay yeah really excited yeah don't worry it's funny don't
worry don't worry you guys gonna do it so like the lights begin to flicker off and on and as they do
like all of you are having your bit moment and roose you're like up ahead a bit detached a bit alone
after the lights flicker a certain amount suddenly there's a figure in front of you
it looks like this it is some real fucking art man and wields um some very strange looking swords
is that a rust stalker i think it is yeah yeah those are trans sonic blades i think is what they are
yeah yeah that's the art by the way that's really i know yeah yeah so this thing looks at you and it just
says please kill me um and then raises its weapons in a uh fairly um fairly threatening posture
i'm just gonna oh yeah now it's combat time to help describe what this thing is imagine
uh they kind of give everyone a base for listening think of like it's qatari but the the face is like a
gas mask with a big tube that goes into it it has sort of like plated slightly swooping uh plated
shoulder pads it has like a a coat coat to it and when it's in this picture it's like a cool dammit
pose like it's like a cape in a way but the cloak's really cool has obviously full skeletal body it looks
like in two uh on one hand or one uh it has like a docked octopus like spear tendril another arm that has
or like two arms or two extensions with transonic blades and then one another one that's that's a claw
hand so it it it looks like a rust stalker in some ways or might just be like a melee mechanicus
guitar thing that i don't know the name of um but it's like it's cool assassin type thing yeah it's
really cool looking
the flame's a disaster
but now we're in combat
and uh yeah
this thing ruse fucking kill that guy yeah well mark me down to ruin point oh no he's gonna take
the initiative because he knows i'm going to charge that
oh my god we're about to get pie brained
we have that sound we have it on the soundboard we do oh here it is
where is it
he's with us even now
this is a this is post game
well
it's gonna go
took away our initiative so
so
ruse sees you and it's like as it's sort of bellowing kill me it moves up to you
targets you it is going to hit you
with
both transonic blades
uh-oh
it's only going to increase its difficulty for both attacks once
because it's skilled at multi-attacking
i believe the difficulty to hit you currently is two so it will go to a three
yep
i'll roll the first attack is it dark
no
okay
oh that's a lot of die
uh-oh
it's gonna get six successes
shift one for
yeah it's gonna uh shift one for damage
uh-oh
uh-oh
spragetio damage
it's gonna do 12 damage with rending three
yeah so whenever i shift and exalted as part of the weapon damage
the ap goes up by one so in this case because i shifted uh one
i guess i actually you know what yeah yeah yeah i so rending would normally be i could just shift
for um ap of um a minus so in this case i'm actually going to re-roll the damage here because
not going to shift for damage i'm going to shift for ap3
just give me a sec here i'm gonna unshift
i'm just gonna redo this here i'm gonna shift for a magic thing what this shift does is it actually
lets me go ap3 with rending so it's way better uh
so i will do 14 damage with ap3 to you
now i'll apply this but i don't think it applies here i think i click it though it oh
that's right that's right that's right that's right yeah yeah yeah just lower the um yeah my
determination is five um and all that fun stuff so you here we go
uh three wounds of shock two wounds left over so i take uh i take two wounds and have three shock
so i'm three out of four and two out of ten right now so well geez now the second attack i rolled a
six and a five by the way from my determination oh my god with a pull of three
well i'm gonna shift one regularly and i'm gonna shift one for damage so i'm gonna get that sweet
sweet ap uh three on this and i'm gonna roll damage i think bruce is gonna need a new like soon okay he
sucked on that damage roll he only got nine it's true i did suck on that damage roll
all right you can i'm getting an error when i click apply just click on my token do apply damage
uh okay sure give me an error here oh one sec
chud yeah it's giving me the same error uh just roll uh if you have determination
just roll it out here we go uh termination roll five oh convocation dive uh which doesn't really
mean anything uh two sixes that's going to be total uh four uh so that basically goes to nine five
uh i'm stupid here because this is always the complicated part of what's your um what's your
resilience sorry my resilience is nine okay so you'll take three and is is nine so you would end
up taking three damage so any how much uh shock do you have left i have one shock left okay so you'll
take one shock and then the rest goes to your room cool cool monster
so one
i have five wounds left okay okay it is tearing through your armor like it's not even there
ruse you have like you are feeling it almost like hum vibrate through um the the plates and thickness of
your own flesh is this thing is staring at you and like in binary instead of kill me kill me look
and bruce screams like he's getting missed
i assume hey team can they go next
why not go ahead i suppose i'll allow it yeah sorry for like taking a lot of attention to the day i apologize
uh no you're good you're fine okay so i am hurt pretty bad i am also full of shock so that means
i'm exhausted uh even to hit this guy uh the dice pool because he has really good defense and stuff
like that it's seven but at least my weapon skill is eight but
uh
bruce calls for aid he's like oh
as he's uh tries to melee this thing uh and just fails with one die to missy was i'm going to spend
my oh i didn't deduct my previous wrath point i'm sorry about that um i'll spend that second wrath
that i have to at least reroll so i can at least get something going in there uh re-rolling for wrath
there we go that's a lot better two more sixes there and i can do one shift and the other thing
was a wrath critical but i crit nice to take the bayonet out of my ripper gun and just pull in there
thematically i'm pulling the trigger you know i'm not actually spending ammo but i'm like shooting
into his chest uh i'm gonna go ahead and roll i'll roll the crit first so we just gotta get that out
of the way it's a six and a three of the die for savage attack the assault leaves the opponent
a mangled mess slashing burning and breaking or ripping them into with a violent force the effect
target suffers one mortal wound if the target survives they immediately acquire memorable energy
or injury uh and glory plus one mortal wound for every glory you spin hey team i would like to spend
three glory if that's okay that's a-okay leave us with one though uh so there'll be a total of
four mortal wounds just right off the bat yep uh and now i'm gonna go ahead and roll damage here
here
oh not fantastic uh nine damage for minus one ap
okay um i'm gonna roll this one sec
okay um it will take uh one shock
uh well you know don't forget it survived so you're gonna do a memorable injury
oh yeah there's one memorable injury let me pull up the memorable injury uh roll me a d6 please
good thing that is a five sir
you smack it so hard it develops a twitch
which is pretty appropriate yeah pretty thematic right yeah as it starts like kind of having this
this twitch with its head moving side to side a little bit
all right it is definitely still up and about though
but that's whoever's turning wants it now bruce calls for eid i will go
bruce despite it all i won't leave you to die i'll take care of this substandard filth
for the emperor and i'm going to charge with my power sword
oh hell yeah enter enter into melee with this mama jamma remember um you can click the thing of
charge it'll add the bonuses to you your window yippers all right let's go i've got a seven dice
bowl and i'm up against dn6 very scary here we go oh my god
wow well i will take those eight successes with one shift possible i forgot to shift my dash before
oh well that's okay it won't let me shift my whatever um we'll just remember i'm sure you have
to click it you have to click the six and then right click that's that oh
shit okay kind of like highlights them right click there you go okay cool cool cool all right let's rock
oh my god well that wasn't your best bet most of my best draw in the world
i was uh you know it did not surpass my expectations but i'll still do nine damage at ap minus
he'll take three wounds from that and that ap worked out looking very beat up
uh i don't suppose i can make another attack or anything no you have to declare that before if
you're multi-attacking and you can't you can't like make multiple attacks with the same
well i i mean i wouldn't have anyway because it's okay yeah defense like if you had a pistol or
something you could have like multi-attacked and then taken the difficulty penalty date and stuff
but then that would have affected your shift that's why you have to declare like all at the beginning
of your turn what you're doing fair enough fair enough well in that case i am gonna call that the
end of my turn all right who would like to go next oh um hmm what does aloysius get benefits
against anything mechanical related or no uh as far as combat not explicitly that being said i do
have some gear that gives me bonuses to build repair maintain and sabotage checks against imperial
technology but those are just ignoring penalties to that hmm kill kill there's a hmm wait a minute
what's um i'm assuming this thing's really beat up like exposed wiring oh yeah like this thing
looks really really fucked up right now especially with the power weapon slash on it um you can see
the thing that is making it precarious to hit right now is its cord claws sort of like shifting around
it this sort of serpentine cable claw i have an idea oh um may i may i try my idea by all means i believe
hey clues
uh-huh that's that's looking like a lot of a lot of oil and circuitry over there
i imagine you want to spray that down and clean that up
clean clean clean clean clean i like push him a bit towards the clean
yeah get him get him
and then it starts spraying the horrific wounds ruse has taken
oh clean clean clean clean clean he's clean but the water is like refreshing on ruse's skin
hey god damn it can i can i walk over to him and like grab his arm and like try to
put towards push it towards the earth thing yeah of course you can hell yeah okay i'm going in i'm
gonna grab his arm and like adjust the trajectory towards the the uh skidari
do you want to give me a weapon skill uh against the target the target the servitor and give me
a weapon skill test yeah why not uh what's the dn uh if you target it if you target the rust
stalker so click on it and then press t and then do the weapon skill in it i think it should probably
am i targeting the rust stalker or am i targeting the servitor
uh you're targeting the rust stalker you're using the servitor as a weapon which is why i'm
saying it's a weapon skill test in this case because it's not quite ballistic this is more
like a pistol up close gotcha uh click to go to a long form dunk which we established as a ballistic
skill test all right good point all right here we go in the rules world there you go oh there you go
okay oh yeah you you manage to spray water all over this rust stalker
does that does anything happen you manage to spray water all over this rust god damn i can tell that it
is that it is hindered by this so it's not quite as effective but no the water does not do any damage
to it it doesn't even seem to be like affecting its electronics but it's hindering it so it won't
be as effective in combat you saw what i was getting at though right everyone oh i absolutely oh yeah okay
okay i was just i i had a i felt like it was it was a good call in theory they put him in rice i mean
water and electricity are are have an infamous relationship indeed yeah you're thinking of yeah at
at least ruse is clean now
hey uh chat can you do me a favor can you just talk like a servitor but it's like only commands
and like bracket command bracket oh my gosh let's do that can you just be servitors for me just be like
clean thing aha aha funny funny funny you know it's like it's like it's other people are old
old hats with me or not but uh there's a bit we used to do where we just uh role play as ants
and so chat would just only just say things like they're ants like fight fight fight fight food food
food food food food run run run run run fear fear fear fear it's kind of like that yeah if you just do if
if you just keep that up and just keep sparing i'd appreciate it okay um
all right interrupt there to do a chat bit keep going
all right uh so with the water hindering it um who would like to
go in initiative next because there's only this thing the servitors have not noticed this yet
i mean i don't really have to worry about its armor i think i could finish it off
i think you could certainly kill the service
scatarius i i i think a loises would know it's a it's a rostocker princeps right yeah
this princeps is a rather deadly asset among the scatari core but it is looking sort of the
worse for wear perhaps i might be able to soothe its machine spirit or
stop such a beautiful piece of machinery from being destroyed you boobs what are you doing
oh rana do you want to end this thing oh no no no no no no the voices is
fucking taking it from me well never mind never mind i'll stand over here by the omniscience stop we
could save them he hurt me kill me i know he hurt you we're going to stop him from hurting other
people uh thurston yes hulky i am an adept of the of the ordozenos i am yes a biologus however yes
as a student of the school of silicon i would know especially with them being scatari adjacent
that theoretically i should be able to compel them to submit to a higher order
member of the cult at the very least might be able to make them submit i don't know if i have
to make a tech check for this or i'm just gonna toss a narrative declaration your way right now
you know what i'll let you i'll let you do a tech test the difficulty here is nine
yep i am resolute in my faith in the omnisiah yeah you got wrath
i'm rolling
that's ten successes oh there you go oh damn eloise just sends his skulls out
he's just communicating with this princeps trying desperately to get it to at least stand down so
he can take a look at it just clearly seeing this fellow servant of the omnisiah in aid
battling assuaging its minds with just constant beams of data data psalms any kind of litany a cool
image of him smoking a stogie please by the omnisiah's might i bid you kneel submit
it doesn't kneel but it's definitely seized up it's it's stopped from like it's offensive to like
seize up it's kill me kill me it's eyes sort of going over one by one each of you um you know kind
of starting far away at kelrana then going to eloysis and starting to make its way to roost by the time
uh your action ends uh eloysis uh kelrana do you want to do anything uh
well i can back up my good friend eloysis with a little bit of foul witchcraft
um so yeah i'll i'll meander over here up oh oh oh there's a wall
uh next to eloysis and i'll just
yeah man do what he said and i'm gonna cast compel
you know that that makes sense the best you know the best way to make your compel work right
oh god i don't know thurston why don't you tell me
let me tell you about transcendence
transcendence is a state in which you win the game
oh i just win if i transcend yeah you summoned 1d6 bloodthirsters to fight for you you know
true true yeah that would be great i'd be a big fan of that
i'm not gonna go fucking transcendent
not for a rust stalker not yet get one coward point okay
thurston i swear to god hey i don't make the rules you just gotta take the coward
you god take the coward plane we'll find out what it does later i got the coward point yeah
can i exchange that coward point to transcend at a lead at a less opportune moment perhaps we'll
find out what the coward point does later it's there though remember add it to your inventory
i will add one coward point to my gear good please please you know check your gear while you're
doing that too oh of course of course cool uh in the meantime if you want to roll your ass
wait a minute my spirit stone could you um could you make me that check now
tempering with the warp right now yeah i'm gonna chamber with the warp right now
i'm gonna wrap it yeah that makes sense that makes sense i'm gonna wrap it oh much better that's uh
12 successes for you uh and i'm going to uh shift one of those all right i can actually shift two it
seems to uh uh i can shift three oh yeah although i think i can only get um i think i only get benefits
for two well you can do all of them shift one for one thing two for the multiple time right yeah you
could like or you could like pump it all into plus one dn to make it incredibly difficult to resist
yeah sure i'll pump it all into plus one dn oh wait okay why is it no you got it uh i think i did it
wrong i think i have to shift it to potency yeah yeah yeah potency okay there we go then you click
the pluses down there then you click the pluses yeah and then you ah yes and now i click on it and
i make a i make a save so oh geez you made the dna and it can only you got three yeah it has three dies
i fail it kneels
yeah see you loisus you did it i give him like a like how you're just like no no no no yeah you did it
the loisus good job yeah that's so cool how was all you bod well i it's well i that means a lot
coming you tell its eyes like well it's well it's forced to the ground its eyes quaver from roost to
captain alden and then are slowly making their way towards simsul um that's the end of that combat
round next combat round who would like to go first i think i think loisus oh could could i go
first and see if i can potentially end this encounter yeah yeah i'm down with that okay
the voice is gonna muscles wait excuse me excuse me sorry i don't want to keep i don't want to step
on your toes there uh i need to get i need to just to get access to their cybernetics right now i need
to see what i can do in interface uh okay can i attempt to diagnose the problem and or fix it
you can but what i'm going to do in this instance is i am going to utilize a rune point here and use
one of this rust stalker's special abilities which is as you go in i am going to use its uh special
ability which is i spend a rune point it loses its cord claw so essentially as you're doing this
it lets out a binaeric screech the modem sound you've been hearing throughout this facility
it then raises up its cord claw which all of you are around it like there's an immediate reaction
in which is all of you sort of react to this um you manage to take its cord claw off it might
might might be from a combination of like roose grabbing it alden slashing the power sword at
the same time the cord claw is gone but this thing leaps up a solid like 15 meters into the air
it skitters into a shaft and disappears oh and that's the end of the encounter was that supposed to
happen did we win i don't know maybe ask roose i don't fear it all got one he looks down and is
bleeding just oh buddy don't get a bad day yes of course bravest soldier of the emperor
and always try and patch him up and do a little medicaid check against you and hope to god it works
do a little i'm doing that'd be bad oh debbie that'd be pretty bad if i complicate you you're
gonna get another combatic fog medic if i fuck up that'd be awesome looks down at your leg oh oh okay
success no shift so you'll restore a wound to him i feel kind of better i'm sorry big man i don't have
any supplies on me i uh didn't didn't seem to leave the ship with anything i actually needed
i look around to see there's a shit ton of medical supplies and this like human processing plant
yeah do you have a do you have a wrath point left no i do
i mean i have one you could theoretically in fact spend that wrath hulky to re-roll all your failed in
the medicaid test that's true i think i might just do that go ahead do it spend that wrath
nine successes and three shifts so four wounds so that'd be four wounds back instead of one
that brings me back to uh get one one there's only one one oh it helped out a lot
good work aloysius roots how are you holding on i'm feeling all better but i feel pretty shocked
about the encounter i know are you surprised to see that there are actually entities that can
pose a threat to you the emperor's own wrath i almost had him sir that's right rusa next time
we'll actually get him and clues you did a great job too i will say clues to do a good job clean clean
clean clean clean that's right clues now if you it continues it moves over um spraying all of you in
turn eventually like reaches like simsul who is very clearly like prim and proper and has taken no
damage in any of this just like spray spritzes once unclean and then goes back to the rest of you clean
clean clean clean i take offense i take offense to this i i push him i the two two hands i push clues
it continues to spray bruce clean clean clean i feel a little better
on a scale of one to ten how better does that make you feel like like at least like a three
that's good that's worth it then it was very much worth it i'm walking away grumb grumbling
simsul come back and as you and as simsul walks away grumbling deeper into the facility
that's where we'll call today's episode yay how much did we accomplish thurston
that was three whole rooms i'm proud of you with a major threat good job huzzah awesome thank you guys
