I remembered the mutually exclusive, I misremembered which that applied to, as I was thinking it was voltaic lattice and nanomachines that couldn't go together. So, drop the lattice and add the nanomachines, and she'll be able to repair her suit even if stranded on an alien planet.
Since the push and pull pads were both one slot each, would he be able to upgrade both of them with one action, then one more action for the armory? That's all he needs to upgrade unless we build something else before learning that skill.

Nanomachine Distribution Channels – Carefully etched grooves and reservoirs filled with nanites give prosthetics the ability to repair themselves after sustaining damage. This process will automatically trigger if the user is unconscious or asleep but otherwise needs to be activated manually.
Subdermal Voltaic Lattice – A superficial layer of wiring reduces the damage armor and prosthetics receive from energy attacks. Passive enhancement, does not count against power supply.
Now, there is a skill to integrate nanomachines with non-prosthetics, but it requires Tech Knight be a Gadgeteer's first cross-training. It is not accessible for the second cross-training, which means it is completely out of Tim's reach.
No, it would be one action each. Plus you would need either to put one of the pads in the other dimension you want to travel to or build a dedicated (2 slot) pad for that purpose. Interdimensional travel is pad to pad only and requires more and more energy the farther apart the dimensions are, hence why the TSAB still uses ships to make the journey.
Okay, let's get this started. Keep in mind that you can pick either way to vote, and make sure you have a SUBVOTE if you want to buy a skill. Also a reminder, because it's only a half week Tim has TWO slots and his Guardian Beasts each have ONE (or they have three altogether).

Huh. I was certain we had built that, but looking at the inventory shows it is not there. Well, that's something we need if we're getting support staff like Vista and Cailleach, where magic, in all its many flexible forms, is not so simple a substitute for having an armory.
As a note, part of my goal here is to prepare for both Leviathan and Behemoth, since we have no guarantee which will be next, just that Winter-- err... Endbringer is Coming.
[X] Plan: Final Preparations
-[X] Retrofit an existing suit of armor for Vista (1 GB slot)
-[X] Frost thrower liquid nitrogen gun (1 slot)
-[X] Short range Clockblocker time stop gun* for triage (1 slot)
-[X] Gravity repulsion generator to push water back (1 slot)
-[X] Purchase Dimensional Transfer (4 points)
*Given to Lacey or sent to the medical station at the Endbringer fight if we don't bring her to that for some reason.
Edited for SW's last response. This should now be good.
Then that works. I don't know why I was thinking three slots for Tim, since neither the usual vote nor this vote has three slots. I think this works as preparation for both Leviathan and Behemoth, since it is possible Behemoth will be attacking again just to screw with us.
Edit: Vote changed.

That's using ice to keep water away from Leviathan. I'm talking about using ice to keep water back from a single position, essentially providing a way to build walls as needed, but the biggest reason to get this now is that Behemoth might attack again instead of Leviathan, and if we don't make any plans for that eventuality, SW may do just that. I know as a GM that I would be tempted to do so, given that the source material explicitly states that, while they tend to rotate, they also tend to break their pattern enough that people can't assume which is next and plan accordingly. Given their true nature, it could even be that they literally decide to throw off the pattern when people are too prepared for one of them, though without the Simurgh or Scion to provide precognitive guidance, and with Eidolon no longer having any control over them, that they would just take turns from here on out.
When the Endbringer shows up, we need to consider what we are going to do. Personally, I think the following should happen:
Lacey goes to assist the healers. She needs to stay completely out of the fight, which will suit her fine, but one possible advantage to this is that seeing what the heroes are going through might help her overcome her reluctance to be involved with fights(but still not attacking people, just supporting).
Tim goes with Lacey. His surgical expertise means he could be of some help, but his biggest contribution is being there to grab Lacey and Dimensional Transfer their asses out of there if necessary.
Firefly and Nostromo could either help Tim or come with us to give us enough mages to yank the Endbringer into Recursion Field, should the Enforcers not be able to take that role. If they do use RF, they need to immediately flee to the edges and focus 100% on staying safe while the rest of us(mages and parahumans drawn into RF) try to do enough damage that the Endbringer will retreat when we drop RF. Killing one isn't going to happen this time.
CW and Sam... Whether we go this time is a question I don't think needs to be asked.

Also I have a request, for author or omake.
I want Taylor to walk in on Dragon trying to teach Cassiel to dance. I want to see fairies dance on a desk top.
