Necromancy War Forge (Riot Quest) (Steam Punk) (Cuthulu) (WW1/WW2)

[X]R&D on : T1[Create Ghost]

[X] New Project: Trigger Pullers- Guns with added flesh or bone parts that you can just point, and will automatically fire at an enemy when aimed at them. Allows unprotected soldiers to be sent into the meatgrinder with when wearing blindfolds, blind soldiers are better than nothing! Right? T2 Spirit project.

Interesting quest idea, I'm sure to keep an eye on this! Hope this is a valid, early "tech" bit of necromancy, considering it's just hacking bodies into smaller pieces and pulling a single piece of metal when aimed the right way.

What happens to overflow from rolls?

Given to whatever I think the closest project is.

Something like that could certainly work, the problem is the detecting enemies, your going to need to get to at least spirit level 2 to start making "Intelligent" things like that.
There is a reason the example is something as simple as "Stronger bones" for T1.
 
[X]R&D on :T1[Create Skeleton]

I'll come up with a project later, but for now, I need to ask what weaknesses do we have? Like typical necromancer weakness like vs light or life, we're weak. Or is that we're just a regular human and our summons will be the ones weaken.

And I just like throwing dice, that's all.

? Then how do our undead soldiers actually work to attack the enemy? And did querying a new project consume my action, or since it wasn't possible, can I still do something else with it?

You can do something else, and that's actually a good question I will write up some lore about it. T1 skeletons/zombies are pretty stupid and sent out in waves by someone with protection.

Ah, so they're sent out with a "Commander" who has to micromanage and direct them? Also, editing my old post. Added a roll and a more valid action.

Good roll, once we get a few turns in and pick up a few more people, I suspect knocking out intelligent undead weapons will be easy-sih
 
As would Tigtone said: A QUEEEEST!

[X] R&D on :T1[Unlock T2]

In the land of the flesh there lies a true Tzimisce.

We need some votes to differentiate which "school" are we upgrading to Tier 2.
Gonna make some spooky skeletons in the meantime.

A new riot quest.

Let's see what we can do
@Zedalb does this proposal work? Or should I wait for zombies to become available first?

[X] Proposal: Zombie eels. I am hoping to get into animal undead as soon as possible The reason why I am specifically looking at eels is because aquatic animals will likely be able to aid on war-fronts containing rivers, moats and oceans. The reason for eels specifically is because they are easy to breed in captivity.

Acceptable proposal
 
@Zedalb would this work as a T1 shock trooper zombie or would it require better tech?

[X] Possessed Zombie
A zombie possessed by a spirit of the vengeful dead. more mindless and berserk than not its nontheless managed to retain a mediocre skill with weapons and tactics being able to vaguely move in a group to a destination and use a gun to hit a target somewhat

Sounds like you want a spirit possessing a zombie.

that would require you to have both ghost and zombies unlocked but if you want I'll go ahead and put it on the research list and just note that it needs both first.
 
More ideas: dino! Ancient warriors! (He can be a commanders)
And realistic project
[X] Zombe are dumb and rotten, he can't use something his hands. Replace arms! To swords, axes, or else.

What about vampires? We can have something like a ranking system to them, ghouls, to thralls, to lesser vampires, to vampires, to greater vampires, and eventually legendary vampires and vampire lords. If we're going for a vibe, I want these vampires to be like the Netflix animated show about Dracula and Alucard. But I'll vote on it next turn for this tech to pop up.
 
Also just to make sure each voter is playing as a researcher at this place right? Cause I'm already seeing plenty of mad scientists around
 
Maybe it would be fun to explain why I want to get into animal Undead.
In the first instance I'm trying to fill niches like the water, underground and air.
After zombie eels I'm thinking about Bats, Moles and Lifestock skeletons in order to create more rush cheap units.
The other reason behind it is because I want to research into composites, Chimera.
One of the Chimera I'm thinking about is the skeleton centaur. Since at this stage our troops will only be dumb rush units we may as well give them some speed and create a cavalry.
