Sahel can jump and kick a tank like a soccer ball.

Checking and yes it can. Huey's quite the mad scientist with black budget funding. Sahel's cost must be off the charts to get a billionaire to look at the bill and get a heart attack.

Replicating it though with smaller metal gears? The cost must be quite high.

Interesting that The Man Who Sold The World is starting to fade and another being built up in its place.

Also happy that an Hero Trait is starting to build up for Miller.

And Hana is sad. She'll need help with people because of her Inhuman Psychology though. And the Safe? for Miller and Ocelot are pretty accurate.

Another note for our troops, Boss, is that the mix of Ragnoline that is commonly used by tank units from the local powers burns very, very hot, requiring a heavy external radiator to deal with the excess temperature. Given it's also glowing blue, the troops can't really go wrong with shooting for the big glowing target with heavy munitions when dealing with an enemy tank. (R&D Side Note: See if we can put together a better heat sink than the locals. I'm sure the Armor Unit would love a tank with heavy armor and no giant target for all the Lancers infesting the area to gleefully ram explosives up their tailpipes.)

Venom: "Why don't you just not use Ragnoline instead? Did normal gasoline stop working?"

:p

So i was thinking of this quest this morning and something occurred to me. Venom's mindset and goals are a mirror match for Naked's with only slight surface differences at best, such as Venom not talking quite as much. Thanks to the way things were set up odds are good that if they were both put into the exact same situation as the other they would end up making the exact same decision, even if the reason they would make that decision is slightly different. Which means that in this alternative MGS universe we are in Naked would have been enclined to go the hero route the same way as Venom has, as such it would make sense for him to set up his long term plan in a way that complements Venom going full hero because that's what he would do.

That of course begs the question, what exactly is Naked's plan in this Au. After all in canon Venom went the mercenary route but in this AU he was different so he went the hero route, that being the case it would make sense that Naked is different as well. Therefore it would make sense for his method of bringing about Outer Heaven to also be different. After all having Venom build up Outer Heaven as it's secret leader would be much harder as a global hero then it would be as a world renown mercenary. And that's not even getting into the fact that Venom's first instinct as Big Boss was to destroy their own nuke and to start working towards ridding the world of nukes. Which means that would also be Naked's first instinct as well. That being the case it means that Naked would be extremely unlikely to develop a nuclear capable Metal Gear, which means he would never kidnap Dr. Pettrovich, which means Gray Fox would never be sent to infiltrate Outer Heaven, which means Solid Snake would never get assigned to finish Grey Foxes mission, and that would make the events of Metal Gear 1& 2, as well as Metal Gear Solid 1, 2, & 4 as a whole impossible.

Basically what I'm saying is I'm fairly certain we destroyed the Metal Gear Timeline moving forward as a whole on the first vote of the quest. Or maybe it's just really early and I shouldn't theorize about complicated plots before my first cup of coffee.
 
So checked out the character sheets and we have some fun things. Including but not limited to Hana who I swear to god will be so ungodly good for when we finally get the dogs training.

Snake and Miller have some traits that are rendered in symbols. Snake has 'The man who sold the world' started but it's only the first bit and it's rendered red(wonder if it represents him getting closer to realizing what happened?). The grey and blue traits I don't know what they'd be. Likely other important phrases to the games or his story but I don't know MGS well enough to guess what they might be.

Miller has started gaining Peace Walker and it's rendered blue (hero) so that's good!

Hana is the only person who has a relationship with DD. Quiet and Paz like her and Eli only mildly hates her. Yay!
 
So this quest has made me want to revisit Metal Gear Solid five again and i just finished building my first support strut. One thing i noticed was their is a basement floor on this strut which seems to have farm/hydroponics facility in it!

This will be very useful in terms of being at least semi-independent regarding our food especially if there is one of these on the bottom floor of each support strut!

I'm assuming that the blue one is "The man who saved the world" I could guess that the grey would be the man who either saved or sold the world.

Though I don't know enough about MGS for this to be anything more than pure speculation.

This substances has pretty much replaced petrochemicals in the local techbase. Honestly, R&D isn't sure if this world will ever develop plastics, given their focus on Ragnite. Be interesting to see.

I wouldn't go that far, even if not used mainly as a fuel oil still has tons of uses in all kinds of things and like mentioned plastic is a seriously useful invention.

I don't see why DD can't set up some independent oil wells and use it for themselves for multiple things.
