we might want to stick to mundane weapons for now. or at least something that looks mundane. any hellish artifacts will send up giant "Yozi agents here" flags to the sidereals.
Do you think getting Fourth Soul Devil Domain, and giving our CA cigars would raise our CA rating?

quick code geass lore question, I vaguely remember hearing somewhere that since sakurite makes railings much easier, a lot of britannia's military rifles are actually railguns, is that actually true?

funny you should mention that.
Rakshata idly chewed her pipe as she impatiently awaited word from the battlefield. Working with the EU had let her do far more than she would have with the few members of the indian military we'd seen the wisdom of her plan, But it meant she wouldn't get reports until Akito could convince his superiors to allow them to be shown to a "potentially hostile power". As far as Rakshata was concerned it was pointless posturing, They knew damn well that india had no interest in picking a fight with the EU, and would do its damndest to avoid letting those dickless idiots in the forbidden city drag them into one. Not to mention the inherent pointlessness of trying to deny intel on a weapon to its very creators.
Do you think it will be enough?
For them to win? no. but it will certainly let them make Britannia bleed. Enough to significantly reduce the amount of damage to india's economy, now if the'd actually listed to my advice about that abomination they called a knightmare frame they might have had a chance.
Was it truly such a poor design? Keep in mind that what would be an embarrassment to on such as you could be a crowning work to a mere mortal.
It's a glorified tank destroyer! Oh sure it's well designed tank destroyer, and I rather hope we can scoop up some of the design team after their country is conquered, but it's not going to do any better against Sutherland than every other vehicle designed to fight tanks.
Then it is unfortunate that neither Akito or his superior was not able to arrange a direct meeting, to allow you to convince them of their error.
the cost of using a cats paw unfortunately. I just hope they take my advice on how to use their new weapons to heart, if they misuse my babies they're going to have a lot more to worry about than britannia!
I do not think we have much to worry about on that score, Akito mentioned that the lower level commanders were far more reasonable than-
Ding! -you have mail!
Finally!
It seems that they are making excellent use of your rail cannons, and appear to have started making their own.
That was rather the point of the scorpions, honestly the design is almost embarrassingly brute force. A half dozen cheap rails hooked up to a high density battery, you can get away with a lot if you're willing to use an ablative barrel.
It works, and makes the weapon simple enough for even minor powers to produce.
True enough, still I can't help but feel if i'd had more time i'd have come up with something more elegant .
There can be elegance in simplicity, that such a potent weapon can be made by even the least among mortal artificers is a testament to your skill.
… Well
A knight of the round, they shot down a knight of the round!
Yes. Yes they did. It looks like he only survived due to a rather costly retrieval attempt by unit he was leading.
And you said I got carried away.
Sigh, I hereby take back all of the bad things I said about your gauss weaponry.
I think this merits champaign, and most certainly a mark II.
Oh look, Akito included a note offering you anything short of his first born for one.
Only if he swears on his soul that he won't use it as a bludgeon, like the last weapon I made for him.
I think that's somewhat unlikely.
Then he can wait for me to make an artifact version designed with the assumption that it will eventually be used to beat a Kightmare to death.
A significantly better than one to one kill ratio against knightmare frames, I think this is the first time a tracked vehicle has ever achieved such a thing.
As impressive as that is I suspect it will eventually drop to a bit below one for one once britanya updates there tactics. We'll probably be seeing them deploy a lot more tanks alongside there knightmare frames.
Ah….
They're still idiots for not listening to me, they had no way of knowing the'd have use for a tank destroyer when they built the blasted thing.
Of course mistress.
Besides, a custom built frame for anti tank duty and a kit bashed light tank for anti frame duty speaks of them having their priorities exactly wrong.
As you say.
Hrmph. still, it looks like this is going to have a somewhat different effect that we intended.
Oh?
Britannia seems to have taken the losses there taking as an affront. there intensifying the amount of resources there devoting to their campaign against the MEF.
So our actions were for naught?
I don't know. it's hard to say how long the MEF will last against Britannias new operational tempo, but even if Britannia manages to conquer them on schedule it will bleed them of far more resources.
There is something else to consider,
Oh?
A painless and easy victory would do nothing but let Britannia blood new troops, and season there knightmare frame pilots, but a bloody struggle where they won't have the luxury of making sure to crush everyone who took up arms against them may produce units well used to fighting Britannian forces.
You think we could recruit some of the survivors? I don't think there will be enough of them to be much use as mercenaries.
On the field of battle no, but what about on the training grounds?
not a bad idea varas. i'll see if I can convince some of my superiors to make a point of providing asylum to any MEF fighters who make it across the border.
and done. I have next to no actual experience with exalted, so I have no idea how balanced those weapons actually are, so I'm rather open to suggestions to change them. especially the ace breaker, I was going for high end specialized frame killer, and I think I may have overshot. do note that once we actually see sutherland stats I may tweak these a bit, after all it would be silly if the anti frame weapons couldn't actually damage knightmare frames. also I took a bit of a guess at the nature of Rakshata and Varas relationships. since Varas doesn't have much technical expertise he tends to simply act somewhat contrary, serving to get Rakshata to consider an alternative approach. He will of course offer straightforward advice when dealing with something within his area of expertise.
oh, and as for the war, I still see Britannia winning handily, but after a long bloody slog instead of simply steamrolling the MEF. they also had a rather embarrassing major loss in the opening stage after their normal frame heavy blitz resulted into a bunch of frames outrunning most of their support elements, and then running into the jaws of very effective anti frame force.

Scorpion Rail Cannon
Speed 6, Accuracy +1, Damage 9L , Rate 1, Range 200, Ammo 1/5, Minimums Str •••, cost •••/•• Tags: P S 2
the scorpion rail cannon at first glance looks much like a normal rocket launcher. It consists of a large rectangular base, that the somewhat smaller and more rounded barrel snaps into. the scorpion uses magnetism to propel metal spikes towards its target at tremendous speeds, allowing a soldier to provide extremely accurate and devastating firepower. This however comes at a cost, the rails are inevitably warped by the stress of the slugs passage, and the weapon is designed to swap out barrels between every shot. These weapons were first seen in the war between Britannia and the middle eastern federation, and while the MEF claims to have developed the weapon on their own, many suspect they received assistance from an outside power. In addition to needing to replace the barrel after every shot (a miscellaneous action) standard models have enough power to fire five times before the battery must be recharged, a process requiring access to a generator and 20 minutes per charge.

physically this rifle looks like a bulky, almost comically oversized sniper rifle. the official name of this oversized weapon has been lost in the mystery surrounding its initial manufacture, it received its rather ominous title for the role it was employed in during the war between Britannia and the MEF. The initial manufacturer of this weapon is unknown, but suspected to be a member of the EU, who supplied a number of them to the MEF. While it is suspected that less than 50 were deployed, they proved devastatingly effective. downing many of Britannia's feared elite knightmare frames. While for some reason relatively few pilots were lost, the threat of this weapon forced Britannia to be far more cautions when deploying elite units. the use of gauss technology all but eliminates the barrel wear from normal use, leaving this weapon surprisingly reliable so long as the electromagnets are calibrated regularly. The riffle is large enough that without some form of power assist it must be fired prone and braced. Bracing the riffle is a miscellaneous action, and makes it difficult to swivel the riffle more than 90 degrees from its initial orientation(as a rule of thumb, if a target moves from in front of the user they are probably out of arc), to fire on targets outside of this cone the rifle must be re braced using another miscellaneous action. A character with a strength of ••••• or higher can wield the rifle without bracing it. The rifle uses specially machined tungsten slugs, build around magnetic coils designed to work with the accelerator coils, they are a resource •• purchase. the high capacity battery that powers this weapon has enough charge for 100 shots, and can fully recharge itself in one hour if hooked up to a military grade recharger station. civilian generators allow it to recharge at a rate of one charger per 30 minutes.

Tempest Frame Destroyer (RESOURCES ••••+)
A heavily modified light tank, this vehicle was created entirely to counter nightmare frames. Eschewing the traditional heavy cannon armament, it instead uses a specially built array of 4 light gauss cannons as its primary armament. With a turret Designed for rapid traversal it is more than capable of engaging and destroying all but the most evasive Knightmare frames. Though its difficulty in dealing with heavy armor leaves it vulnerable to more traditional armored vehicles, and its light armor often means whether it is the hunter or the hunted will come down to who gets the first shot.
Repair: 3
Speed: 30/60 mph
Maneuverability: -1D (Drive 2);
Endurance: The tempests oversized engine consumes a prodigious amount of fuel, requiring refueling every day of active combat or travel. Its engine also requires at least on hour of maintenance a day to prevent a degradation of functionality. For every week that it does not receive such maintenance its Maneuverability decreases by one, at -4 Maneuverability it is no longer mobile. The gauss array is somewhat more resistant, losing one point of accuracy for every 2 weeks without proper maintenance, at -2 accuracy (against its intended targets) the weapon ceases to function. It is not uncommon for commanders cut off from resupply to use their tempests as improvised static defenses.
Crew: 3, a driver, a gunner, and a commander.
Cargo: tempests have room for approximately half a ton of cargo, this is enough space for either an extra day's' worth of fuel, a full reload for the tempest, or enough spare parts for a week. However it is not unknown for commanders to find another use for the tempests half ton cargo capacity.
Armor: 14L/20B
Health Levels: Ux6/Mx3/Cx2/Ix2/D
Weapons: The tempest is unusual in that by default it carries no secondary weapon, though some commanders have taken to attaching a single shot anti-tank missile to the hull (treat as rocket launcher) to give them some recourse should they encounter enemy armor. The primary weapon is the quad cannon tempest array the tank is named for.

A joke often made by tempest gunners is that they have a round with their foes name on it, and they're going to keep firing until they find it. It's common ancestry with early anti air batteries is evident when engaging low flying helicopters as the weapons extremely high maximum traversal is just as useful against attack helicopters as it is against evading knightmare frames. When engaging frames or other large vehicles this weapon as an accuracy of +2, when firing at anything of a smaller size (jeeps, other light vehicles, or infantry) it does so at -2 as it was not meant to fire on such small targets. Still its ability to pierce most cover and high rate of fire make it well suited to suppress infantry. while the weapon possess sufficient power and armor penetration to threaten tanks should it strike a weak point, most gunners would prefer to stick to targets that do not require a lucky hit to damage.

I will manage XP and growth. They will do their own things aside from the main story that is Lelouch's, but when they become relevant again they'll be strong enough to help.
1st circle demons which are bullets
They are not quite so obvious, small guns even more than that.
Code Geass Small Arms. I don't think they're quite railgun: just something economical made from the same principle.
Okay, this is awesome. Give me some time to read it all a few times to make a decision...

so they are small railguns, huh I thought I had that wrong. a bit of fluff that didn't quite make it in, the original scorpion prototype was literally the accelerator rails of a half dozen rifles bolted together, It blew up after the third shot much to varas dismay.

Make sense, at least in my mind.
Alright: there are many errors but we can work on that. I am bad at balancing weapons too so I leave the task to others. But Rakshata's little inventions gave me the ideal plot for the next Interlude, so with the other posts...6 Xp for you Random. You deserve them
@random_npc - nice finish to the omake, certainly some interesting ideas. That said, I will note that the EU's Panzer-Hummel is actually a quality fourth generation Knightmare Frame and is capable of standing against Britannia's fifth generation models as long as it's at long range and they do have really strong defensive capabilities, which let them hold the Al Hamein line for a good long while against Britannia. It should be remembered that Britannia did take the EU seriously as an opponent for a good long while, and only truly dominated once they started deploying sixth and seventh generation frames.

oh she wasn't ranting about that. she was ranting about this. the one time we saw it in the show it wa acting more or less like a tank with legs rather than a frame. If i remember the scene correctly it got of 2 or 3 shots, then the sutherland got in close, and circle strafed it to death. i'll go back and edit in a link to make it more clear what she's ranting about. also they had just ignored the advice of a defiler infernal, she's probably going to be a good bit harsher than is really fair in response.
edit: fun fact, I actually see it synergizing well enough with the anti frame weapons she gave them to go down in history as a solid 4th generation frame that was simply deployed too far into the 5th generation frames era to come into its own. This still gets a rise out of her if you bring it up in conversation.

It got wrecked going against the Lancelot. Pretty much everything gets wrecked going up against the Lancelot, except the Guren Mk-II. It's great for holding a choke point against normal Knightmares, and the Black Knights also use it later on during the Black Rebellion to bust through a section of collapsed wall.

I think it was a kitbash. notice how instead of legs it's literally bolted to 4 other Knightmare frames? I think they took a heavy siege gun and bolted 4 frame to it so they could move it more easily. It was actually fairly good for what they needed it to do, namely kill the fuck out of anything that come down a tunnel that was a bit narrower than the spread of it giant frame killing shrapnel blasts.

We're missing a Fiend, right? I had the idea for a Kimbery-favoring Fiend a while ago. She was a teacher at a rural school in Java, and her school was demolished to make way for a Sakuradite mine. It shouldn't have been, in part because it was right next to an old 'protected' graveyard believed to be sacred by locals, but the project was greenlighted anyway through a mix of local politics, corruption, and bribes (but I repeat myself). She tried to stop it by exposing the corruption but failed because one of her students ratted her out (his father was part of the mining company and basically grilled him until he slipped and told his father about her plans).
What do you guys think?

Put it on a ship.
Maybe? I think a bureaucrat might be more appropriate for the situation than a teacher, given that a teacher wouldn't have any exposure to the actual corruption and politics of the matter. Instead of a student, just have someone she'd have considered a friend among her co-workers sabotaging her due to being one of the people being bribed.
Though given that Indonesia is part of the Chinese Federation I'm not sure how much bribery and corruption would be required - if the High Eunuchs wants a Sakuradite mine, they just need to order it. Given the importance of Sakuradite they most certainly would. Maybe make it so that there actually isn't a lot of Sakuradite in the location, and normally it wouldn't be worth investing a mine in, but the entire project is just a boondoggle to make a local politician some extra cash? Or just make the project something else, like a factory or some other kind of mine.
One idea for a Fiend that I'm toying with is a retired master thief who failed on his "one last job" because he couldn't keep up with technology. He'd be chosen directly by the Ebon Dragon, with Szoreny being his other favored Yozi. Once Exalted those fancy computers wouldn't be such a problem. He'd be Australian, and an absolute master of disguise.
I cannot help but be slightly wary of this idea on some level, because when Enjou said he was "an absolute master of disguise" I couldn't of anything except that horrible movie
When I push that thought out of my head though the list of things he might have stolen over the years makes think this is a great idea.

I was thinking that back when the Chinese Federation took over control of Indonesia from the Dutch, part of the concessions they made to garner local support was that they wouldn't disturb 'sacred' sites. They're a pretty big deal around here. Eh, but maybe I'm pulling too many parallels to Pangeran Diponegoro here (he was a Javanese prince who rebelled against the Dutch after, allegedly, they made plans to build a railway right across his ancestors' burial ground. Not sure how accurate that is, but that's what I was taught in school). Hmm, but maybe I should make her the school principal instead and elevate her to the position of local minor aristocracy. She built the school from ground up and saw it crash down around her because one of her relatives accepted a bribe. Part of my plan for her was to have her impersonate/claim to be a local mythological figure, the Nyi Roro Kidul. Although, I might...

Does anyone know about the health effects of using tailing-contaminated water? In particular, would using it cause skin diseases/abnormalities? Also, uh, I've looked around but it seems that there aren't many Infernal Medicine charms. What would kind of charms would they have to take if they want to heal a disease. Like, say, leprosy or something similar.
One thing to keep in mind is that this spirit/deity may actually exist in this world and might take umbrage with an impersonation like this provided she notices.
It really depends on what the tailings are composed of. Various types of conditions can come up, really, and cancers are especially common. Skin cancer can be included in that.
They don't really have much in the way of that. The Szoreny Charm Bitter Medicine can be used to cure diseases in other people (by making them temporarily immune to them, thus eradicating any they have) but the bulk of the Yozis don't really have much in the way of healing Charms. Healing lesser beings just generally doesn't fall under their themes.

This really depends of what you are mining and how.
As an example, look at the effects of gold mining with cyanide:

Mercury poisoning

Shirley can do it, but only on a small scale due to high mote costs. And it requires quite a bit of investment (and I think E4) in that charm tree, too. I've also seen a homebrew charm for Maleficent that gives people non-fatal radiation poisoning to immunise them against disease, though as you might imagine it's a rather unpleasant charm to be subjected to.
