Art of Domination Thread 04

...Actually, rereading it I wonder. Would the creation of a biological computer be doable with what we know? It sounds like such a thing may be capable of detecting this file, giving us a tool to hunt down and destroy any copies that may exist.

Francoise: The Author’s Forge might be able to create something like that for you, considering its capabilities.

HQ: Commanders? The Author’s Forge just spat something out.

You acquired a Scanning Meatware!

You: What in the world is this?

Francoise: It seems the Author’s Forge is indeed sentient and capable of understanding what we want.

Then you hear the Forge itself speak, not through audio but directly into your mind.

Author’s Forge: Use Scanning Meatware on electronics. Place device on monitor. Tell it to search for ‘To Serve Man’ malware. It cannot destroy malware but your servants can.

You: Well, this is convenient. Thank you.

Author’s Forge: I exist to serve, Commander.

Lagantis: We’ll have to keep that thing attached to our computers in case the enemy keeps trying to insert that mental virus in. Does it need sustenance?

Author’s Forge: One meal per day is enough, General. Meat equal to its size.

Feathers: Is the Author’s Forge speaking?

You explain to the AIs what just happened. It seems non-organics can’t hear what the Author’s Forge is saying. HQ makes a note to write transcripts for your allies’ benefit.

Oh speaking of sonic mechs and vehicles, none of those were lost in the last attacks ?

The enemy’s creatures were more focused on killing infantry and civilians, and avoided vehicles whenever they saw any.

>Could we use cryo-artillery on the vent points of Region 1, and back that up with weather machine (rain) usage to make the resulting blockages even more sizable. Gradually choke them out before mounting the strike force.

With the help of the Deathman’s Freezer Bombs, yes.

How many more author forge points can we expect from that clean up ?
And how long will it take ?
Can we speed the proces ?

Considering the sheer number of monsters involved in the attack on Cadrow City, you’ll be looking at about 800 Author’s Signatures. It will take 5 days to completely scrape every nook and cranny for it.

More units aren’t necessary; the city’s inhabitants are already doing the dirty work themselves, eager to get rid of it and turn it into something you can throw back at the enemy.

Next update’s in June 2018. Will be asking about which one to attack: Region 1 or 2? And what’s the strategy for tackling them?
