We're not doing Wasp Nest. It's a Wild Card and Double-Edged Sword. That's not the kind of thing you play unless you're very desperate.

Twisted Metal has brown hair when not transformed. She also had a glowing red seal with the same Affinities as Goddess Red.
Not what that line is referring to (Red's hair is a different color), but the voice that threatened us might have been. Sure sounded like they had Overwhelming Presence.

Here's both vote turns to compare.
So, we didn't lose out on any missions. The UD has lost a bunch of offensive options and gained a new one that is currently one-third complete. At this rate we can expect it to go into effect in two missions.

The difficulty of Deluge also changed from Hard to Moderate. Not that we can do it yet.

Okay, of the missions we have available, most of them have minimal effect. We have two smalls effect missions as well.
Choosing Machine Code looks like it locks out of Operations.
If we do pick missions, either Ghost Division (small effect, but enough difficulty to get XP from actions in the mission) or Gifts From Heaven (since it supports Deluge)
As for attachment options: Who do we have? @kelllogo? Did I miss anyone?
I know we have at least ACES HIGH (probably able to handle themselves, but our support would be helpful), the Emissaries (currently deployed if that means we can't join them, fairly well-put-together team), ATLANTIA (again, theme team) on the base.
ACES HIGH looks like a good choice. We can actually help out there, and it improves our relationship with Night Sky, which might let us learn spells from her.

One note about Wasp's Nest. We now actually can poke a Titan Worm from long range in a way that will greatly piss it off. Since that's the biggest and baddest type of monster there, doing so should taunt a whole horde of them.
Panoply config of Multi Shot | Ordnance | Darkslayer | Heavy Caliber does the following to a Titan Worm with each attack.
Panoply: 1400 Base Damage, +1d700 Dice, +200 Light of Discovery, +560 Ordnance, +7000 Darkslayer = 9161-9860 Total Damage

Titan Worm: 3000 Base Resilience, +1d15000 Dice = 3001-18000 Damage Reduction
9,483 - 26,579 Final End Damage
Titan Worms have 125,000 Health. And we have (at least) 5 attacks per turn.

Pick anybody you would like. You'll help them get around with your portals and use Guardian Touch to support them.
It's a bit of a socialize option since the antimagic is restricting other options while the tanks roll up.

I'm not sure we can take both. Also, there's a conspicuous lack of "(Operations will remain open)" after the option to help Yuki, so we may be locking ourselves into that.
So...

ACES HIGH, as A) Summit seemed to like hanging out with Nightmare of Night, in part 11, and B) potential to learn spells from Night Sky.
*Stares* ... Wat. Summit's jumpy as fuck around her. My memory is a bit faded, but I'm pretty sure she threatened our life or something at some point as well.

[X] Take a mission
-[X] Wasp's Nest
[X] [EXP] save it
For people worried about BoatShrieks - WE (as in Summit herself) can survive just fine. Our allies - not so much.
There will be spiders. They cannot harm us, and they cannot stun us. We reach full attack potential there safely. That's 26 apt.
The optimal Panoply Configuration is Ray-DarkSlayer-Multi Shot-Heavy Calibre. It allows us to pop spiders with single shots, and CHAIN 1400+7000+200 damage ticks together in the attack string, to bypass the heavies' Resilience.
Which means 6 attacks sunk will have 51600 x3 damage, or 155k after tripling. Do that and the worm is erased from existence.
EDIT: Which is kinda a side goal as killing an Epic was spoilered a prerequisite to To Tear The Gods From Their Heights ability (multiplies damage by target's Existence first digit, Sixth Heaven had it).

Replace Ray with Ordnance so that we can stay way out of range. Those Titan Worms are scary up close.

Reread post 11. She and Summit get into a splash fight, then Summit cheats at a breath-holding contest and acts all smug. I think Summit's fine around her.

For all of 2.5 seconds we spend within 50 meters of them while FLYING TOP SPEED and having INHUMAN SKILL and SKILLFUL DODGE and 26 ATTACKS before they are shredded with my configuration?
Hahahahahahaha!
NO.
Edit: I am worried more about Balrogs and their Omnipresent spell. And they die even easier.

Staying really far away means that we might be able to prevent them from understanding what attacked them, causing them to just charge in that general direction in a rage. Then we just GTFO.
