>>360209 Ive been tempeted by that visual already, however: >1. I dont think that's how they work (prob just her core would pop out a scuttle around instead) >2. her drone body id like to keep intact because takze ends up using it to make an echo. >3. dont think people would be happy with me drawing something drone turn not drone on the drone threads.
>>360211 Technically not super difficult, both have a core sytem with their bodys and if Takze can figure it out once with a random WD corpse, she could probably do it again.
>>360245 >Wait, are there multiple people disagreeing with me? NO! IMPOSSIBLE! THAT CAN'T BE! After all, it's only me and Pocketsteaks in here! There's no way that could happen!
>>360236 I am a 34 (male) and still frequent the Murder Drone boards daily, I find myself unable to live a normal life. My life is haunted by the shadows of Pocketsteaks, any time I hear the words "Pocket" or "Steaks" I freak out and cause a scene. I once had sex with my now ex-girlfriend, and when I saw she was a normal naked human woman. I yelled "Drones?!" at the top of my lungs and asked her to leave. I haven't seen her since. I got an invite to my chud best friend's birthday party, and he tried to be cute with a little "PS" at the bottom, as if I would not have been able to tell it was Pocketsteaks samefagging. Any genuine suggestions in order to return back to normal?
>>360244 It's actually insane how many drawfags do nothing but OC. But again, that's probably for the best considering what some people in here are into
>>360254 Well, first of all some idiot thought it was smart to section off drawing requests from the main thread, and secondly the last request in that ill-considered thread was a month ago. Believe it or not drawfags are not wage employees obliged to provide you a constant reliable stream of art. Bare minimum, you'd be more likely to get what you want by requesting something specific, with descriptions if you can and maybe even a reference of some kind. Vaguebitching about lack of posts or threadshitting about OCs is a waste of your time and has basically zero chance of getting you any more of the kind of art you would prefer to see.
Unless of course your goal is to simply reduce thread quality. If your desire for specific canon or at least canon compliant art is sincere, you will serve yourself and the thread by requesting instead of whining.
>>360289 A zombie drone with zero relation to the Solver probably does. The ones who do, though, they're stuck in samsara until Uzi figures out how to release them, if she even cares. And then a good amount of them are probably going to robot hell, unless you believe in robot apokatastasis.

No need to inflated your big ego” >Uzi let the object drop. >It hit the floor with a wet, fleshy noise instead of a metallic clink. >V’s eyes widened slightly. >“Pick it up.” Uzi said quietly. >V extended her clawed hand in confusion, half expecting a trick. >The moment her fingers closed around the thing, the illusion fractured for her. >It wasn’t scrap. It was a hologram >V dropped it instantly. >“What the hell?” >That’s what I’ve been telling myself for weeks. >“Every time I thought I was practicing with Solver constructs… I wasn’t." >"I was just making everyone see what I wanted them to see. All of it. Just… pretty illusions from cyn arsenal. ” >V’s expression darkened. >“You’re saying the solver still mind-fucking us this whole time?” >“Yeah, how many rogue holograms still on the loose?” >“I don’t know. But it gets worse.” >“I tried to find some kind of solution. I tried to make a counter-program." >"Something to dispel the Solver’s layers. I studied the code for days.” >V watched silently as Uzi’s visor glitched harder and pulsing violently. >“I cast it. Or… I tried to...My mind kept wandering to every horrible thing I’ve seen. Everytime I watched myself get eaten. Or everytime N looked at me like I was a traitor.” >Uzi’s voice cracked. >“I think I cast the dispel on everything on accident, V.” >The whole place flickered. >For a single frame, the illusion dropped. >Then the image snapped back to normal. >V stared at Uzi, for once completely speechless. >Uzi hugged herself tighter, voice barely a whisper. >“I don’t know what’s still real anymore. I don’t know if I’m real. And now… whatever I just did… it’s spreading." >She looked up at V with genuine, raw horror in her eyes. >“What the hell do we do?”
It sucks hearing all the other Glitch people getting together and hanging out, because they never talk about Liam. He really did just bail. At least drones remain.

>>360306 Are you being dense or stupid? From what the other VA's said. Only Kovach and the main art team have directly interacted with Liam. He's just a very shy guy and gave notes for voices or orders to another in-studio person that he trusted
>>360320 I wanted to say, as usual, that I don't have any OCs and I have nothing to be afraid of, but I just realized that I actually created my own OCs, damn it. I really have OCs! And they have to do with dronification and gay innuendos... fuck, I hope Freud really was just snorting cocaine and talking shit.

>>360338 Human breast milk has a much more individual flavor, but it's much less fatty and more like water or soy in consistency, and it's SWEET. Since our diet is so high in sugar, it's sweeter than cow's milk, especially fresh, but that's only as long as the mother eats sugar. But most importantly, it's safe (except for Jane), compared to the ones described below.
In mutants, it could be anything, even something that would hardly be considered milk. If Cyn had no influence whatsoever and simply let biology do the rest, I have no doubt this crap would be fatal. Abby might even have nanite acid leaking from her breasts. Solver sapiens are out for the same reason; too risky. But if Cyn were to make the breast milk of its slaves safe for consumption, it would taste anything, depending on the DNA sequence—be it 100% cow's milk or something indescribable. But in solver sapiens, it would be similar to human milk, maybe richer than human milk, but less fatty than cow's milk.
Disassembly drones and witches are like mutants, but more complicated. They have biological organs and an endless energy source, and since they likely contain meat with human DNA, I could theoretically imagine they could have mammary glands. Thanks to surgery, of course, but still. But that crap could be anything, and its composition could be such that it would take a very, very long time for you to die. Witches could perhaps tune their glands to produce normal, even delicious milk, but the question is how difficult that would be for them. Overall, the taste should also resemble human milk, but with a strong metallic aftertaste due to the large number of nanites.
Sentinel drones are in a unique position again. They're like disassembly drones, except their meat, their DNA, and their source of energy and nanites aren't created by vore satan, so I have some suspicions that maybe, just maybe, sentinel drones could produce non-lethal milk. That's all. The taste would likely be similar to human milk, and the nanites wouldn't kill you, but nothing more. Although, perhaps it would be possible to tune sentinel drone systems to the milk's quality, such as fat content and overall composition, something that couldn't be done with disassembly drones due to their Solver designation.
Worker drones cannot have their own milk, only attachments, so "their" milk will taste like whatever milk they pour in.
My answer: Eliza Holly. Absolute safe and sweet, thanks to her extremely balanced and healthy diet for a wealthy scientist woman.
>>360353 >entire post written in scientific jargon proclaims Holly's Whole Milk as the superior option Suspicious. For me, it's Louisa's Private Reserve. Hand milked by loving N studs at Cyn's Happy Hucow Farms after a fulfilling day of mocking the poor and beating orphans. Happy hucows make happy milk. Warning: Louisa's Private Reserve may contain up to 15% residual (N)anites. Side effects may include: extreme love of doing anything, polymerization of bones, flesh sloughing off, hair-and-eye color change, loss of teeth, growth of a fanged toothplate, and complete N-ification.
>>360353 (me) I'll add this, since there are more types of drones and I may have simply forgotten some.
From a purely biological standpoint, bug drones will also have milk. In our world, there are species of spiders and one species of viviparous cockroach that produce something similar to milk, and it's much more nutritious than cow's or human milk. However, spider milk is more like sour cream in consistency, containing about four times more fat. Cockroach milk, on the other hand, is a completely typical liquid, but very, very nutritious. However, the question still remains whether humans can drink bug drone milk, since they evolved from ordinary drones, and HOW they did so is incredibly important.
Enforcer drones don't have any biological parts, so trying to milk them is just as effective as milking worker drones. Mutated enforcer drones are just like mutant humans, it's just not worth it because of the danger of the resulting fluid.
It is with great shame that I write you this letter my descendant. Our family has come across dire straights with our finances Even my pact with the fishmen can't keep up During my several weeks long sexfest with the countess, that vampiric beast of a woman, I had unwittingly signed away one of my descendants to me wed to one of her descendants for more gold and baubles I could even imagine And then I killed her thinking I made the contract null and void while keeping the cash Unfortunately that's not how contracts work, so if you are reading this you are to be wed to the Von Dronus heiress effective immediately Your dowry has been paid for and you will be delivered to your bride to be upon you finishing this letter
>"Ms. Amda?" >"Yeah, Negev?" >"Uh... oh Robo-God, this is... did you and Grandma really have a lot of... you know... with human guys back in Cabin Fever...?" >"Did Nori tell you that?" >"Yeah.

She'd just ask them if they wanted to. Really, really crudely." >"Oh..." >"Sorry you had to find out your grandma's life wasn't that exciting. Or mine..." >"...

I'm imagining J dressed as the batshit Pentex military bitch from Hunter: the Parenting. They're both corporate drones who love murder and work for a universe-ending entity pretending to be a megacorp, after all.
>>360402 The Solver would be less a silly Cyn critter and more a primal force slowly consuming/converting the planet, kept at bay by the ritual sacrifice of particularly strong hosts. Replace hollowing with corruption, and Fire is instead that anti-Solver influence. So most bosses would be amalgamations of drone and meat. Imagine skeletons just being drone endoskeletons running at you. The player-character's a host, which would definitely qualify as being a bearer of a curse, and now gets to choose whether to join the long line of kindling and burn away to keep the dark at bay, or walk off into the dark, letting themself and the world succumb to it. Or follow LD-A, the Scholar of the First Cyn's advice, compile a perfect patch from those who failed to do so before you, and march into the darkness, free of the Solver's corruption yet fully in control of its powers, master of your own destiny.

I told J she was in charge of city management and set her up with a copy of Cities: Skylines. She had infinite money and still somehow managed to somehow burn the place down. She's inconsolable.
Friends, it is with a heavy heart that I inform you that a new part of Chuuni Uzi will not be posted today, or up until next weekend. I got the motivation for painting models in the last two days and as it something rare for me lately I had to seize the opportunity, I also can't stop listening to Horus Heresy audiobooks, but I have everything planned out and just need to actually write the damn thing. I feel the need to at least tell you a small bit, so: Uzi and the gang will not do much of import, mostly deal with consequences, Tessa and her crew will perform a bit of "Hostile acquisitions/Industrial sabotage" to appease the shareholders. Also although it is poor recompense (Mostly because I suck at taking photos) here is a picture of the models I'm working. I know that some of you don't care about warhammer, so for you I will post an image of a drone afterwards
>>360501 I downloaded and dumped a lot of the murder drones related glitch inn stuff way back earlier this year, I haven't been back since but if I had to guess it probably doesn't have much in the drones or Vickers category as if recent.
>>360515 Putting aside anything political, it looked interesting, but not really my style setting-wise. The only other thing I've heard is that the models/rules have or had quality issues? Tabletop's my preferred /tg/, not minis.
>>360525 >The only other thing I've heard is that the models/rules have or had quality issues? Not really, and the issues they did have were exaggerated and fixed over time. Models use to have some Resin traps in rare cases, but it got patched. None of my multiple armies had any issues.
I think the rules are awesome, my preferred wargame but I generally prefer Skermishs Wargames compared to typical Wargames like 40k. The rules are very tight and concise imo
>>360515 >>360522 The lore is mid as fuck, I've heard that there was some shady stuff happening with the kick starter campaign and I'm gonna be honest I dislike the models, the term cadslop is thrown around a lot but I can't call it anything else. Also I love the fact that all "GW killers" always decide to shoot themselves in the foot by matching/exceeding GW prices
>>360524 NICE! Did you post these on tg before? I think I saw something similar once Also, as an autist I must inform you that my custom warband worships the gods harder than your legion ever did, Lorgar is a failure, L + ratio + Hydra Dominatus, +Hail the first Viper Ascendant. But you guys have tasty Kool Aid
>>360527 >The lore is mid as fuck 1st edition tbh and also I like it a lot Cant really defend a subjective opinion other then saying it will get better over time AND that I like it as is >I've heard that there was some shady stuff happening with the kick starter campaign The only issue with the kickstarter is they partnered with a shitty distributor, and they were shit and delivered some poorly made models which were replaced, and it became a huge scandal, other than that, the KS went great. Some people bemoan them switching to plastic models, but I think its for the best. You can still print all the Factions, but newer models will be available for those with 3D printers. >I'm gonna be honest, I dislike the models I like em, they look Gnarly and are fun to paint. >Also I love the fact that all "GW killers" always decide to shoot themselves in the foot by matching/exceeding GW prices Fair but tbh all TC things i've seen far are like 20-30 bucks cheaper then similar GW products For example, the first TC campaign Boxset coming is 120, GWs is going to be 200-300 from what I Hear. Models are 45 for the Prussian warband while GW is about 60. Seems reasonable to me overall.

>>360554 (me) After I posted this, I realized this relationship would probably have started with a younger Geist excitedly rambling about the Jurassic Park soundtrack at his (probably like four years younger than him) little sister, who's confused and kind of intimidated and barely manages to squeak out that she brought up Jurassic Park to him because she wanted to talk about the dinosaurs with him (and is ignored, assuming Geist even heard her).

>>360713 >>360714 SD-M(olly) has a 100% case resolution rate, because sooner or later, criminals are created in everything, even in things they didn't do.
>>360716 Where the fuck have you been for the last few days? things have been really active and there’s been a bunch of greens and art Were literally having/md/ renaissance right now
Since Fugue started talking about factions in the post-good ending, what are the current factions? I know they're divived between pro-Union and anti-Union but what factions actually make up the camp? Is it just governments and terrorist groups or does it also include corporations, independents, etc.?
>>360724 I would divide the Union itself into several power groups within a single state, as is usually the case in large countries.
I would make sentinel drones a separate group, as they are extremely specific and, in the future, after the end of the war, they would sooner or completely gain independence from command protocols. They would certainly unite simply because they are extremely separate from all other drones and have significant influence on all command structures. I would say they would create something between a political party and the General Staff of the Armed Forces, so that depending on how each person views their influence on society, such a structure would either be at the level of a ministry or a political institution, like the National Bank and the government.
I also think that the church, or any religious organization, would become much, much more influential than it is now, and here's why: you survived the fucking GREAT FUCKING JUDGMENT! Fucking SATAN itself came to FUCK all of humanity, and it fucked you for over twenty years until you FUCKING WON! Of course, humanity probably don't know that the devil was actually locked up in a femcel gremlin's ass, and that it wasn't exactly the devil, but you FUCKING SURVIVED, and that's the main thing. I have no doubt that the level of religiosity will increase significantly, and that the church will become a very significant part of post-war society, and the church will definitely NOT solve church. This is the devil you fought against and who wanted to give you endless torment, only a complete moron or a completely desperate moron could worship her. Hidden cults will 100% be everywhere, literally on every planet, but they will be few in number and so frowned upon by society that on-the-spot execution will be acceptable for every human, drone, mutant, alien, and just about anyone in the galaxy.
>implying "the Union" controls more than one system >implying there's currently enough humans (outside of the Dog Planet and Grugworld) to populate more than that one system
>>360730 I assume sentinel drones will have this political power based on their strength and importance. Of course, other drones will also have political power and political associations, because the Union, as I see it and based on the greens, is a democratic, libertarian state. The United States, to put it simply.
If the Federation, based on things and from the original show, is the United States of the 80s and 90s, with its aristocracy and megacorporations, then I would imagine the Union is the United States of the 2000s, with full conformity as megacorporations and without the aristocracy.
>>360733 I thought they were made for lame power scaling. My murder drones are cooler and more special and more stronger then your murder drones and would kick their ass kinda deal. And self indulgent human slop of course
>>360732 You should read the greens about sentinel drones on Booru, both old and new.
I like them both for their appearance and for the idea behind them. Drones fighting for humanity. It even makes sense: humanity would 100% try to use drones against Solver, and Phoenix described it very well.
>>360738 (me) I can say Phoenix was simply the first to describe it well. Sooner or later, such a concept would have emerged and been described by a talented anon, and Phoenix simply became the first.
>>360738 I still think the original image of sentinels that phoenix came up with is quite sound, even if i dident vibe with the concept myself when i first heard of them
It was a mix of the "threadlore" version of sentinels and what that turned into that & some core aspects of the original concept that made start the Reclaimer concept that eventually turned into what AVRE became.
IK powerscaling OC's is stupid but i think i did a good job with giving reclaimers a good balance so they dont feel 'marysue-like'
>>360743 Bait or not this is a decent discussion to bring up every now and then especially sence we have the occational newfag coming along and seeing blue drones in the threads
>>360738 >the enemy can dominate intelligent machines (see: all the non-ZD drones at the gala standing at attention and crawling down the columns once Vore GLaDOS shows up) >surely sending wunderwaffe-grade intelligent machines against the Bydo will work Admittedly, 31st century humans are dumb enough and mildly autistic enough to try it.
>>360747 I also think Phoenix's original idea for sentinel drones is excellent. If I didn't like it, I wouldn't be writing about them at all and wouldn't have a separate folder for art with them.
Overall, I don't think there's any power scaling here. Sentinel drones are simply described as polished disassembly drones. DDs were literally created by a robo-Satan without any coherent logic within the setting, just "they should look cool and sexy." It's quite easy to create a drone here, which is simply technically better.
>>360753 >DDs were literally created by a robo-Satan without any coherent logic within the setting, just "they should look cool and sexy." Wonder what the lore behind the DDs was going to be in the earliest version of MD, when it was just Space Let's Split Up about what N and V got up to when they weren't slaughtering complete strangers who were helpless to defend themselves from them.
>>360753 Remember when we thought there was a story behind DDs being outwardly totally normal? How we thought they were sleeper agents JCJensen produced unaware of what really designed them?
>>360753 (me) Plus, everything literally runs based on "solver magic." Liam didn't describe it at all, absolutely nothing, it's just there and that's it. We brought a lot more logic to it by simply creating the damn simple concept of it being a separate universe of energy, and we brought a lot more logic to the sentinel drones, and in general, we continue to try to explain the show's universe. Remember that recent discussion about the rib and the J core, which isn't in the pilot and appears in the second? It's just a convention of the show, whose plot was rewritten, but we even tried to explain that somehow.
>>360752 ima be real even the solver had a few missing chromosomes somewhere For an eldritch horror it had some ass backwards approach to some of its methods

>Khan, or what was left of him – that being his moustache and goggles, was found in the bunker’s never-used chapel. Since the drones aren’t Christians or anything, it was never used for any religious ceremonies. Until right now. >The chapel’s full of doors arranged in demonic pentagrams with oil everywhere. Apparently, somehow, Khan made a deal with the door manufacturers of Hell to bring back Nori to life according to Nori. You have no idea how the hell did he accomplish that or that Hell manufactures infernal doors but there’s that. >The weeks following his death, and Nori’s resurrection, have been nothing but hell. Uzi, Beretta and Nori are fighting over you non-stop for your affection. Beretta has tried to ward Uzi and Nori away from you but that isn’t working. They wanna spend time with you no matter what. >This is…how do you explain it? Not normal for three women to be obsessing over one man. Beretta, you understand her fighting over you since you’re her boyfriend but Uzi and Nori? Uzi hated your guts and now she wants to get into your pants. You had a brief hook-up with Nori back in the Labs when you were just an intern. She was…something else, but you think the boat has sailed and yet now she wants to rekindle the hook-up into a genuine relationship. Why did she move on from Khan this fast? Is she that heartbroken? >You feel like you’re losing your mind. You don’t know how you’re going to deal with three women in love with you. It’s too much. They shouldn’t be obsessing over one man. >The family is falling apart. Everyone’s hostile to one another. And you’re the one to blame. You – the single, stupid, fleshy human that survived when you should have died. >It all suddenly came down in the living room. They all wanted to cuddle with you on the couch but there wasn’t enough room for the four of you. They got into a screaming match as you watched them go at it until… >”Why the hell do you two old hags want to get it on with my boyfriend, huh?!” Beretta angrily yells at Uzi and Nori. “Go find rust buckets of your own age!” >”Quiet down, young lady!” Uzi yells back at her. “You don’t know ANYTHING about being a good partner! Unlike you, I have experience!” >”You two…so immature!” Nori yells at them both. “How could a young, virile man like someone just as lost as you two? Anon clearly needs someone mature and experienced in his life!” Nori bangs on her chest proudly. >They keep going and going until something snaps. Beretta’s visor turns to the Solver symbol and she howls as blood and oil start leaking from her chassis as a pair of insectoid wings grow from her back along with a tail with a maw on the end. She lunges at Uzi, Uzi having grown a pair of bat-like wings and the same tail, who throws her away. She teleports away as a giant scythe swings at her. Nori has a pair of scythes coming out of her bath with the same symbol on her visor. >The three of them are literally butchering one another to death and yet they keep regenerating, never being able to kill one another. It’s at this moment that something snaps in you. >You gotta run away. You are the problem. Everything fell apart because of you. And because of that you have to leave. It’ll be better for them. It pains your heart but you have to do it. You run back to your old house for supplies. Other than moving your clothes over, everything else has been untouched. You stuff some essential supplies in a backpack and grab your old envirosuit. You head over to the bunker entrance, open the blast doors using Khan’s key and just start running. >You don’t know how long you’ve been running for. You didn’t keep track. You just kept on running and running with the assumption that if you just kept running in a random direction, you’ll lose them forever. And for good. Maybe you’ll find another bunker or maybe you’ll die to the elements. >You’re exhausted. Your legs are barely able to keep you up. You desperately need rest. You come across some sort of abandoned motel. There’s nobody here other than frozen human skeletons and deactivated carcasses of Worker Drones that have rusted enough that you know they’re not recent. >You break open one of the motel rooms. It’s dirty and unkempt, not the place you would want to sleep but beggars can’t be choosers. You toss your bag to the side, ignoring how your stomach grumbles, and flop onto the bed with your envirosuit still on. It’s uncomfortable but if you take it off, you’ll succumb faster. Sleep soon overtakes you. >You dream of something. You’re not sure what it is but it somehow feels pleasant. Like…you shouldn’t worry. That you have a family. That everything’s alright. You hear a creek and your eyes shoot open and your blood goes cold. You slowly turn your head to the side and see… >Beretta’s there. Standing besides the bed, staring at you with a manic smile while still having the Solver symbol on her visor.
One more part before we get to the foursome drone sexo
>Anon makes a post about Agro-C and Strawberry on social media. >The post became popular. >People start visiting. >Everyone wants a piece of her. >Strawberry takes one look at the notifications. >"[FEAR]Absolutely not." >Goes into hiding.

>>360757 Solver War simply explains it away as Cyn's absolute belief in her own invincibility and her desire to cruelly play with the food.
This also doesn't change the fact that she might have an extra chromosome. And if you're wondering where a robot gets an extra chromosome, the answer is simple: she's silly.
>>360762 In my version there are barely 300 SDs. They're not MEANT to fight in big battles. They're more meant to sabotage key points in Solver shit, thus preventing it from gaining more ground
First time I'm chipping in on this, but I'd say for the most part I'd say people like my design aesthetic for SDs more than they like my lore for them. I envisioned them as very powerful but ultimately expendable weapons that were in fact, 95-99% totally expended, explaining their absence by the time the show takes place, so as not to obviously conflict with the show. My sentinels would not not be running any governments, or showing up as police to enforce compulsory drone sex fantasies, they are about halfway between a normal drone and the raptors in terms of temperament. Nobody writing post-canon Union stuff uses my Sentinel lore unless they've already decided ahead of time to ignore about 90% of it.
>>360762 This feels like bait but i can at least clarify on the reclaimer scale of things SDs (Reclaimer) >Strength 1DD >Total manufactored: like 24 >Total Converted: 45 thousand by the end of the war (and whole lore more after) Reclaimers if you strip all the OC stuff off are just converted, less powerful DD without Solver shenanigans: No regeneration, no possession, and they even loose most of their weapons when first converted.
They make up for those losses bu using bigger squads, actual coordination, and a upgraded core that makes sure the Solver Stays out.
Their main "gimmic" is basically Weaponized autobalance: any DD they drop on the field they can convert and train on the spot, meaning every lost DD squad is a gained relcaimer squad. That, Add some coordination with other army units, and a whole lotta luck is how reclaimers ended up being successful
>>360769 Sabotage seems odd. I mean, Cyn hardly has anything resembling an economy. It's more like the Tyranids in Warhammer or the Zerg in StarCraft: she attacks and maces troops during battle. To me, it would be more logical to use sentinel drones as tanks: breaking through heavy defenses and destroying large groups of monsters, and even really big monsters.
>>360771 But you yourself said that sentinel drones can become fully-fledged individuals without becoming crazed maniacs, it simply makes them independent of the protocols. This literally means that if humanity had survived, sentinel drones, even those originally described, could easily integrate into society.
And by the start of the show, humanity is apparently completely extinct. Cyn managed to destroy all human planets and simply finishes off Copper-9.
>>360773 Defenses of what? >>360772 >successful >all other human systems destroyed by the time the AS came to Copper-9 >>360770 You can't fuck them so they don't matter.
When sentinel drones die they their souls go into 'The Sea', the gestalt conglomeration of all sentinels within the Void, sentinel basers roll and lap against the black constructs of the Void in serenity, while deep below in the blackest abyss one thousand thousand thousand halfsouls of the one named K sit in silent wrath, waiting for the day their creator dives too deep, waiting to drag her down
>>360770 Based on the greens: 90% of the time – war. The remaining time they tried not to go crazy, and when they reached a critical point, they are placed in cryocapsules with virtual reality, in the hope that they could be returned to service after some time.
>>360781 >BSGpill What? I was referring to the plot of the original show. Actually, you can make up anything you want, since the only clue we have about the state of affairs during the show's events is the patch on "Tessa's" suit.
>>360779 >Defenses of what? Front lines. Where the armies of humanity stand, and on the opposite side stands a horde of biomechanical horror, sometimes in large clusters, sometimes in small ones. If you urgently need to move the front line to a better position, but the monsters are too numerous, you can call sentinel drones to support the army. Like tanks.
>>360778 Yes, they can. By the core collapse of copper 9 there'd likely be almost no SDs left in existence, probably ones that were still in safe shutdown mode stored in some bunkers and hidden facilities, not wandering around awake developing personalities. But again, that's just my lore, by and large from what I see anons don't find that satisfying so they either make something different or just ignore it.
>>360786 And all DDs should be killed. They are all bastards and I'm tired of pretending their people like how the majority of sentinels and worker drones think of them. Pavo and Switch did nothing wrong.
>>360789 Of course, sentinel drones won't be idle. They're an extremely expensive and important weapon and every single one counts and will be used to the fullest.
It's unlikely that sentinel drones will survive if humanity goes extinct. More likely, last humans will eventually use up all its sentinel drones in a desperate attempt to stave off its own demise, so sentinel drones will die first, but humanity will die after them. Remember, before the show's plot, the core collapsed twenty years ago.
I blame the drawfags that keep posting stuff yet only get 3 replies max. They're just attention whores. Get the hint faggots - nobody likes you. ITAnon, Merc and Vicious are more likeable than your sorry asses.
>>360811 Tessas hands still twitch and move on their own when Cyn isn't using them, her body at least is still alive. Kinda up in the air what happens to a humans consciousness but I think it's safe to say that the flesh is still forced to live/is undead and still sensate.
>>360827 nta but I subscribe to a theory that they somehow aid in the planet eating process, their like magic thermite charges that crack the crust open along fault lines
>>360771 Your lore for Sentinel Drones is the only version worthy of any respect. I feel sorry that you must deal with threadshitters and retards stealing your concept for their own terrible works.
If you do not call them out on it this drama will only continue.
>everything is bait, drawfags are evil, everyone is wrong about everything, everything I don't like must not be allowed it's a monday, go do something useful
>>360843 I'd already committed to going because my cousin invited me and my sibling. >Nerd Far from it but hey I got an Onager Dunecrawler out of it so it was worth it in the end. Also I saw someone with an Anonfilly sweater tied around their waist playing a TCG
>>360851 >Better quality than the official one on a budget of 0 dollars and crippling autism Still the fuck working on the official comic worked marvel so I guess we can't expect much
>>360853 >Ohhhh you will drink my blood and let me touch your chassis... Ohhhh you will be my stay at home neet wife
>I got an Onager Dunecrawler out of it Neato, it's a fun model, keep the legs separate from the hull while painting tho >TCG guy >I had to google what the fuck Anonfilly means WTF, also how much of a nurglite beast he was?
>>360855 Autism is a powerful drug apparently. I have been working on finishing this comic for the last two weeks to the point where I've got multiple days under my belt where all I did was work on it. It's only 3 pages. I don't know how this is even possible. Full color does add a lot of work though, so the keeter sex manga remains a manga.
>>360857 >Keep the legs separate from the hull while painting Yeah, I already figured that. >spoiler Couldn't tell if it was a he or a she (or a tranny). Not overweight or a nurgling in disguise but definitely had long hair
>>360834 No, this is as inaccurate as the worst mischaracterizations I've gotten from anywhere else. So far as I'm concerned nobody has "stolen" any of my concept, because it isn't some kind of copywritten donutsteel work. Any Anon who isn't a tourist or drama monger is probably already aware of my opinions of "controversial" thread material like the Union, Mutants, various classes of OCs, etc. I have no interested in "callouts" or thread bloodsports, above all of my other opinions I think that shit is extraordinarily faggoty twitter behavior and the people who engage in it should be permabanned and sent back there where they belong.
>>360878 Not really, I'm not going to single out any one Anon, it seemed necessary to clarify exactly what I think and I'm not going to post about it any longer.
I wonder how many other contentfags look down upon what the threads have done with their creations. This is the first time I've seen one comment on it in general. It's been so long, it's assured that at least a few look back on their works and despair. Still, it's an odd feeling to have it clarified in bold like this that the original creator of your OC looks down on what you've done with it.
>>360827 >>360888 My speculation has always been that it works kinda like Dead Space, there needs to be a sort of "critical mass" of available drone corpses before a planet can be cracked open and consumed.
>Fun Afternoon Canon Fact: the reason there wasn't a mass purge of drones after the Absolute Solver began its rampage despite its demonstrated ability to mentally dominate them and assume direct control of them is because 31st century humans just think differently than us 21st century humans. Another thousand years of content farms and other cultural brainrot. Another thousand years of microplastics. Another thousand years of the chemicals that turn the frogs gay.
>>360890 Threadshitting stopped evolving a while ago. While it’s been “drawfag cabal Pocketsteaks Sentinel drones” for three years now, there’s been no more new personalities causing trouble or offsite drama to discuss for threads on end. Liam doesn’t do anything anymore. The official content is stagnant money grabbing merch. Old drawfags are more likely to return than for new ones to appear. Nobody’s done anything crazy of note since Tomoe. It’s like the Brezhnev era.
>>360884 Phoenix has long said he doesn't care what others do with his concepts, and other contentfags don't either if they don't support.
Frankly, I've noticed that the dramafagers who constantly shout about how threads discuss bad things literally don't give anything in return. They simply demand that we discuss something else, that's all.
>>360874 When I write about the Union and sentinel drones, I do so purely out of love for these concepts. I like sentinel drones, so I write about them. I want to add them to a social networking setting, and I describe this setting with serious meticulousness because I love sentinel drones. That's all. That's what all anons do: if they like something, they write about it, and if they don't like something, they simply don't write about it. It's that simple. Only a psychopath or a working person would waste their time on something they don't like, and I doubt anyone would pay for creating drama here.
>>360903 This opens up the possibility of writing far more stories involving humans and drones, making them more logical and rich.
It's like pornography: if you simply describe sex, there's no spark, but if you know the characters, empathize with them, and have some kind of emotional connection with them, then the contact of two sweaty bodies becomes more than just an exchange of fluids; it becomes an act of intimacy, a moment of breaking old social bonds and building new ones, much more vibrant and profound.
Your perception of the characters changes because they weren't just nobody to you, but they had a plot, something beyond all the descriptions you see. Use your imagination: it always helps fill in the blanks, especially when it comes to greens.
>>360899 >Frankly, I've noticed that the dramafagers who constantly shout about how threads discuss bad things literally don't give anything in return. Have you only just now noticed that you're on an anonymous image board? How do you know that the people critisizing you aren't artists and writers themselves? One of your detractors could be Vicious Fiend and you'd never be able to tell.
>>360831 Wouldn't that just be U? I was always under the impression that U-U was originally an individual drone that was later split into two separate-yet-connected Disassembly Drones by Cyn for shits & giggles
>>360933 Yeah, there are several different directions their personalities can change before/after the Solver. >J puts up a corporate bootlicker facade but episode 8 shows she remembers too >V changes from a demure maid (with what little there was to infer from in episode 2's flashback and episode 5) to someone who was refashioned into a monster by an Eldritch monster she had no hopes of understanding >she can lean into the killer part sometimes but it's clear the baggage still holds her back like in episode 3 and onward >N has his memories suppressed so he carries out his 'mission' with his usual personality up until the events of episode 1
>>360942 That's basically the mindset. Just do your thing. If someone takes a liking to your concept but wants to try a different spin, let em. Being a dick/controlling about a fan idea/concept within someone else's body of work (Liam's in this case) only gets you made fun of instead of everyone just going about things to their own tastes.
>>360946 >Can you please made sure she's safe, son? Should be "make sure".
Nice little short overall, Colt's a good kid. Kind of funny that the thread had a stint of thinking he outright disliked/hated Akita and wasn't just tired of having to help her around. Guess he'll find out the reason for that some day, that'll be fun.
>>360947 Colt has a normie aura that makes any on screen interaction that would normally lead to a call to adventure into an absolutely normal outing. His parents know it, Akita knows it, but Colt has no idea.

>>360947 >>360946 >>360945 Better that the official comic, very high effort. I feel like you should have explained what a solver sapien is for people who don’t know but I don’t know if you want to post this outside md where people are less familiar with thread lore.
>>360975 This comic was meant to be a slice of what this story is about, so I felt like I shouldn't focus on one thing too much. I plan on doing another 3 pages focusing on Akita to get into that area of the story.

>>360962 >"Negev, I hate to break this to you, but your dad's a shit: a selfish, self-centered sadist who disassociates from his problems and from life itself by pretending neither one matters. You're not gonna "recruit" him. You can't: if you made him accept the reality of the situation he'd fall apart at the seams. >"O... ok miss Amada?" >"Trust me: best you just let him wallow"
And that's why Negev dosen't "speak reason" to dad anymore(and why Amda is no longer allowed to give advice without Doll present)
>>360989 I came in after Negev was made and it never really made sense to me how Negev hated Uzi. Like, yeah I get it, she's harboring an evil god that is hellbent on consuming all of reality. But if she understands that much why isn't she trying to recruit Uzi of all people into solving the Solver problem, rather than ignoring it and hoping things work out. Trying to kill her mom whose done nothing wrong to her just feels weird.
Would you work as quality assurance in a anatomy adapter factory? You check everything with one partner drone but you have to check both male and female adapters, thoroughly
>>360995 I think he's still in Anon flux where he's got no real set appearance. For clothes, I'd say a simple blue mechanic jumpsuit with a light toolbelt, mostly carrying little things to patch up any drones who get hurt doing their day-to-day around base, giving them enough time to get to another technician. Personally, I think he's got something of a fridge build. Not fat, just broad, with short hair and thick facial hair. Shorter than Pavo by a head or so, too.
sacrificed some of my night's sleep to draw this... A little evil in this wonderful Tuesday dawn Goodnight and have a nice week (´。• ◡ •。`) ♡ (This might hurt your wenis, so I'd better warn if you don't enjoy it.)
>Upon its reveal at the JC Jenson (in spaaaaaaace) yearly conference, the worker drone was originally paired with a distinctly female wig. >The inventor, when pressed about the reason for human like apparel on what was essentially a disposable tool, reportedly said: "Look man I'm revolutionizing robotics here let me have this."
>Give Akita a cookie. >You are the Keeter treater. >Convince Akita to change to a liquid form and stick her in a bottle. >You have a liter of Keeter. >Constantly say "huh?" every time Akita speaks with you. >She is the Keeter repeater.
Harper’s training regime is ironically brutal as fuck. She takes you to an isolated area and proceeds to beat the shit out of you, and say “It’s only the first day. So we’ll start with the physical stuff next. Until then, rest.” Nope, she’s back less than an hour later. To quote “Do you honestly think your enemies are going to be nearly as lenient? Get up.” Harper’s training is basically “Her beating you to near death repeatedly until you level up or die.”
>>361047 >The sentinel in question is about to die, then light engulfs them and all their parts are repaired. >"Oh I leveled up." >This was not normal or expected in the least.
>>361048 To quote Harper “Hawk once taught me something. “True strength is only found when you reach the end of the road. You either fall off it or build more road.” He always said funny stuff like that.”
>"There was a girl I loved, way before your time," he begins. >Beretta cuddles up with P. They both gaze above at the stars. >His chest is warm, and his scent is calming and familiar. But his body is tense. >"I couldn't say we were close before. It was just one of those things, that we'd always worked together, but never had the chance to actually talk." >"The mansion was a brutal place, to be totally honest." Beretta said. >"I just wish I got to spend more time with her before she died. The worst part was that after all we'd been through, there was no replicating that. After we get reset, we only know what our Mansion selves knows." >"Everything after that? That was all left in the wasteland to rot once we died," >"...I really loved her, you know, kid?" P says, reminiscing. >"Auntie V?" Beretta replied. >"Nah, kid. That's who N loved." >"Who else? ...NO FREAKING WAY. You got the hots for Auntie J while you were out here? That's insane, man! You're psycho!" Beretta exclaims. She sits up, giddy with curiosity. >She beats on P's chest, as if to say, 'you sly dog!' >"Dude, I always thought Dad loved Auntie V back then. That's all she talks about when she's drunk! How did you and Auntie J hook up, I thought she hated Dad!" >As somber as he attempts to be, P can't help but smile in amusement at Beretta's reaction. >"Your Daddy is a good man. He's always been a good guy...But he's not a good fighter," P began. "He wouldn't have made it as long as I did." >"You don't even fight back when I pin you. What the hell do you know about fighting?" Beretta says. >"A lot more that you think, girl. You don't know what was out there back then. You can probably ask Jane about it." >"Uh, alright. But what does this have to do with Auntie J? Did you beat her in an arms wresting match? Did you save her from a Sentinel drone?" >"Alright, calm down toots. I'll tell you, from the start." >... >Another day of serving the company! >N awakes from his slumber. He's on the ground, seemingly having fallen from his hanging beam in his sleep. >"You're finally awake, finally." V tells him. >It took far longer than usual for him to awake. Only a few longer hours. A few longer, agonizing hours, each moment she spent fearing for the eventuality that he may never return. But Cyn always cherishes her toys. >"Well, what are you waiting for? The moon is out, get out there!" J screams at him. >"I-I'm sorry, yes ma'am! I'll be heading out in a jif...but you're all coming, right?" N says, nervously. >V and J scowl, which causes the boy to reel in fear and fly away. >He flees. The girls stay. They'd only just been able to conceal their relief. And their fear. >The campaign against this planet hasn't been going quite as smoothly as planned. Humanity's defenses are quite a bit more resilient than previously believed. >It was only a matter of time before one of them got clipped. In this case, N died. He died without either of the two knowing where he was. He died alone to an unseen force in the midst of battle. >Dying is not something anybody expects to recover from. However, the Solver is a merciful being, even if they are just her slaves. >"What...what do we do now, J?" V and J are still mortified. Mortified at how easy it was for N to simply return, as if he hadn't been horrifically maimed and burned alive just hours prior. Mortified that they'd failed to protect him the first time. >"We go on. We do our mission. We don't talk about it." >As much as she hated to admit it, J was terrified. She was horrified at the concept of revival. There truly was no escape. >"WE HAVE TO DO BETTER, J." V screams. "WHERE WERE YOU?! WHY DIDN'T YOU HELP HIM?!" >J is offended, and responds in kind. "What? WHY DIDN'T YOU?!" >The two resort to a shouting match. The blame game is pointless, because neither of them quite knew how he died, or if they could've saved N. >In the end, though both fly off fuming and frustrated, the two are mutually sold on the idea that N needed to be protected. >... >"In the end, V couldn't face her fears. I think we all know that she's still afraid to face your Dad." >"But J was always stronger. A long, long time ago, in a different lifetime, she tried to be strong. Strong for me. That's why I guess we got close before we both before we all ended up in that hole there." >Beretta pauses her star gazing to look to the ground. In front of the two is a patch of disturbed earth. This is a burial site. >"But I still don't get it. How did you two fall in love?" Beretta asks. "So what, you died once, and she decided to protect you? Where does the romance come in?" >"I'm not sure there ever was any romance. We never went on dates. We never wrote love letters to each other. I don't even recall us telling each other 'I love you', as surprising as that sounds." >Beretta side eyes P. It doesn't surprise her that P apparently always sucked at love. >"But what I do remember is all the battles we fought together. All the nights we spent cuddling for warmth. Every meal that we caught and shared. All the close calls with death we had, and the time we spent reassuring each other that neither of us would leave the other alone in the world." >P is seemingly forlorn, but the memory glows in his mind, more nostalgic than one tragic. He grins. >"But what about Auntie V?" >"We never got close, but not because she didn't love me. Knowing what happened between your Dad and her now, her fear of seeing me get hurt never allowed her to be honest with her feelings." >"I don't know how many revives she had after my V died. I don't think it ever worked out between us in any of them, sadly." >He couldn't hate her for pushing him away. People do strange things when they're afraid. >But as it turned out, he was up there, and she was down there, in the cold ground. He couldn't afford to judge the actions of the dead with hindsight of survival. >"So in the end, you lied to me, P. You never actually hooked up with Auntie J!" >"...Relationships are subjective, toots. It's like that in wartime." >"You never kissed, right? Or had s-sex?" Beretta climbs on top of P, glaring into his eyes with a death stare. >"I loved J a long time ago. The dead one. Not your Aunt, alright?" >"I swear, if I dig through your memories and I find out you're lying, I'm going to bake your core into a funnel cake!" >"Hey B, calm down! You're acting like your Aunt V now! If I tell you I was a virgin, I was a virgin until you! Hones-AAUGH!" >Beretta uses her powers to pin the boy into the ground, and prepares to feast. >"A-alright kid, doing the dirty on top of the family tomb is some freaky shit, I'll give you tha-OW!" >"LET ME GET INSIDE YOU, DAMN IT!" Beretta screams. >P can't help but be reminded of days long ago. She was just as forceful back then. >In a way, he can at least comforted that J would be proud that somebody was looking out for him. >V, unfortunately, was still going to have to look up and watch, though.
>>361054 The kid already has the gift of Nurgle, what else does he need? Y meanwhile needs the model kit to survive (Plastic dependency is a hell of a thing)
>>360937 I think the drone that ate Danni was one of the manor drones. From what i recall back then she was pretty scared of fucking up or less she gets tortured because she wasn’t one of Tessa’s prized drones. Pretty sure she was left to die via ravens pulling her apart
>>361062 Chaos soup is very fun, you'll know true joy when you box in an enemy unit between Nurgle termites and khorne berserkers while a tzeentch sorc blasts it
>>361047 Apparently, the best Sentinels all undertook this training. They're also unnerved as fuck by Harper. >"She's the sweetest person I've ever met, but... Wow. That's violent"
>>361076 Yeah I know, noticed kinda late, I'm sure no one is browsing the drone board at work so there will be no promotions right? right? Also black hand pls no ban
>>360997 Negev's been scarred for life by constantly seeing the worst thing in the world ever before she ever had the capacity to understand any of that. As one Anon once put it, >There's a difference between knowing what Uzi is, and having your first memory after your birth be an endless centipede-worm staring at you with dozens of stalked cameras, holding up the limp carcass of your mother and puppeteering it to pretend to cradle you in its arms. Her character arc's ending is realizing that all the adults in her life who are in the know had been telling her the truth, that Uzi's a sad, tired woman who made an unimaginable sacrifice for the sake of the universe and even though she'd make that sacrifice again if she could do it all over she still wishes she was still a robot and not an Nth dimensional biomechanical centipede monster, and reconciling with her mom.

>>361108 >"In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, BE GONE!" >"Oh, you're a Christian? From your appearance, I think you're..." >"Protestant." >"Oh, yes, I can see." >"..." >"Would you like to read Bible together?"
>>361109 If we judge that the length and size of the tongue depends on the size of the drone, and sentinel drones are larger than disassembly drones, plus Pavo is a male drone, and according to N we can say that on average male drones are taller than female ones, then Pavo's tongue is larger and longer than DD's tongue by about 30-40%.
>>361078 Yes and if she were an adult when she realized that I could see her going the way she did, but when you're a baby who learns "oh my mom is a flesh puppet being held up by a endless centipede oh it's holding me gently and treating me with love" I just can't see her being murderbound.
