So yeah, Ambush Bug continues his track record of being a colossal douchebag by dumping a group of 17th-century privateers into the modern day under false pretenses*, handing them weapons they almost certainly don't really know proper maintenance/use procedures for, and assuming that nothing would go wrong and leave one of them dead, traumatized, seriously injured, or temporally stranded.

I propose that OL have Constantine find a way of siccing those imaginary characters on the bastard; he's probably meta enough for that to work.


* And yes, not telling the men you're hiring that you expect them to be fighting mystical superbeings in the future very much counts as not being honest.
And that is why you should never trust strange beings that appear from nowhere offering contracts.
 
So what happened to the automated defenses? This is the first time since they were put in that the Mountain has been attacked, and they haven't seemed to do anything as of yet.
The robots are insulated against EMP and don't have brains. Ambush Bug himself appears immune to mind effects. The SI never got authorisation to install anything heavier.
 
To be fair, the sorts of weapons that SI would have suggested probably wouldn't have worked here either.
 
What about Praexis horde? Eating whatever is attacking doesn't sound that bad. And they don't have any other responsibilities, so they can be there all the time.

Maybe so, but in this situation, you can look someone in the eye and say, "What we have isn't enough."

"Also what you have isn't enough. Let me turn the watchtower into an orbital cannon...and give it a few dozen sisters."
