On Thread Etiquette:
I'm not going to weigh in on the logic of either side's arguments, but I will ask that everyone read over what they write and really consider if the words they used are polite and won't be inflammatory intentionally or not. You cant account for people's tolerances perfectly but at least try to say your piece without saying things that can be easily construed as overly dismissive of the other side of the argument, thank you.

Please endeavour to be cordial. :^)

Think we should give Mhorni a weapon/armor set? he can carry the shield.

There's no point to doing that because Mhorni copies Snorri's kit.

That would completely defeat the partial gear inheritance, amorphous physiology, and size increasing abilities of Mhorni.

Hmm, we could probably give him something like a Giant Fuckoff Crossbow to shoot though. A portable Warmachine crossbow equivalent; something with Engineering Runes on it, basically. Or perhaps some kind of rock-thrower rather than a bolt-thrower?

However, that would mean Mhorni isn't utilizing Zharrgal.

On the other hand, it would mean he could be providing the benefit of ranged attacks via a mini-Warmachine equivalent; some kind of rock-thrower or bolt-thrower with Runes on it that will synergize and coordinate with the Volcano Storm effect of Snorri's cape.

Since Mhorni can grow in size, he actually can wield or operate a warmachine-sized ranged weapon, unlike Snorri.

This could be done by having an engineering crew instead, with a warmachine. On the other hand, that would require a crew of engineers, rather than just Mhorni. And they wouldn't be able to weather Snorri's storm, or travel through the earth.
 
[X] [Dron:] Accept. Go to Karag Dron after the Conclave. +1 Pt. to Coronation of 404.

It's also assuming that Mhorni's gear is mechanically functional.
The effects of Zharrgal can be reproduced relatively easy with magic.
I don't think the mechanism of the crossbow would be reproduced.

No, I'm saying for Mhorni to be outright given a Big Ass Crossbow to hold and operate.

It won't be copied off of Snorri; Mhorni will be holding it and operating it.

That would work.

Buuut... I don't think it's a good idea either.
Mhorni only grows big enough when the magic in the area is pretty intense, so on an average day, he wouldn't be very big. And at the size we can predictably reach, he's not going to be shooting anything much bigger than what a trained artillery crew can fire.
 
Master Rune of Broken Darkness: The weapon bearing this strikes as mightily and as hard as the Master Rune of Conduction or any of the other myriad Runes for striking very, very hard. It shines brightly however, like the noon-day sun. The servants of Chaos, whether Daemon, Beastmen, or Mortal, are struck mightily and hard by it.

It will also be effective against the Uzkular, for that matter.

Master Rune of Wutroth: The bearer of this armor has their flesh transformed into good, hard wutroth. Beyond being damnably hard to cut through compared to Dwarf flesh, those blows that do strike true heal and pretty damn quickly all things considered. The bearer burns no more easily than any other Dwarf.

"Think I'm stupid boy? Course I made sure you wouldn't burn like wood."

Honestly I wouldn't mind replacing Snorri's axe with a shield. We don't need to dual wield weapons. Though I believe people would prefer a runestaff?

I'd prefer a sword. Gazul has the right of it, sometimes you just have to murder something extra hard. We can deal with chaff well enough, what we really need is something to put an end to top-tier bosses.

Rune of Containment: Designed to halt the spread of warp corruption, be it in the form of Warpstone or dark artifacts. Against active attack it can fail, but otherwise it can hold for a thousand years or more.

might as well at least have a look, see if there is anything interesting too learn.

Does he even know how to use a sword? It would be rather time consuming to learn a new weapon with all the other stuff he has on his plate.

IIRC that kind of thing is below our level of abstraction. And soul has put similarly difficult things in our "Snorri just does it in the background" pocket. And finally, "Oh you made this super cool sword, but gotcha you can't use it very well" is lame and Soul doesn't write this quest for lameitude or gotchas.
