....But of course !
When you have a factory on leg who poop monsters, you want your magic outhouse to have legs to keep up, make sense to me !

Brainjackers ?
Are those like bodyjackers or are those another class of monster i forgot about ?
Anyway I think this planet has enough of one radioactive hellhole with region 5 that nuclear artillery is an option rather kept as last ressort. And two bataillons and ALL sonic mechs for 8 days ? We /really can ill afford to divert so many troops at the moment, not when we'll have to take care of Pioneer in region 4 soon.
...Still I suppose it'd be nice to have the option, leaving these things here is leaving them for the enemy to eventualy recuperate and besides waste not, want not.
two questions:
1) Could the nuclear fuel in the nukes also be recuperated for others uses. Research or extra power for our civilian infrastructure or some cleaner weaponery maybe ? (Nuclear even civilian is alway a bit of a double edged Damocles' sword long term but on the short term, it's still darn efficient.)
2)We still have a bit of a reserve of RP, could we get some more specialised bots schematics and production for these kind of salvaging/building/logisitcs heavy operations ? lightly armed but with some serious environement resistance and adapted tools for such things ratehr than our sonic mechs that are combat oriented chassis ?
(because if memory serves, sonic mechs are just big chicken walkers, I don't even remember them having /arms in illustrations. And if they do (whigh i guess would make sense to give them at least a small pair of manipulator jsut in case) they can't be all that adpated to move some unstable nukes.)
I am not fond of the option of exploding nukes and then wait for an attack. for starter if the enemy has even half decent competent spies they'll know about it reguardless. And two didn't we want to avoid exploding the nuke to avoid a massive cloud of radioactive dirt. Nop reason Hawkweyes could explode them more safely without some serious work done for days first.

We should have our scientific team pick bits of the cloner while we're at it.
And hey would we actualy study that fake seal to learn to open our own portals ?

With the tumorhide armor completed, can we have the list of all vailable research options (I mrean what they do, how much they cost and how long they'll take) and Rehynar project (I remember his silly battleship on leg idea and his (in my opinion) much more usefull infiltration drone swarm idea but beyond that...) ?
