Despite the damage, Jagdhund swivels her shoulder mounted cannon forwards, opening fire!
(12)
(14)
The kaiju slams a fist into the gun, disrupting its discharge from reaching full strength! The bolts of electricity wrap around Guilion's back, dissipating harmlessly into the air.
No damage!
A blaring horn draws the furious kaiju's attention-- Tacit Ronin is back in the fray!
"Hey! Asshole! Eat this!"
(12)
(23,7)
The blade swings up, shish-kebabing Guilion through its skull! Nerves are torn apart or simply boiled away by the heat of the weapon, driving the rage-fueled monster into unconsciousness.
Guilion takes 5 Strikes! Brain bleed! Loss of motor skill! Guilion is unconsci-
Shink!
Shunk!
Squelch!
SE-26-035, "Guilion" Defeated!
Half a minute of stabbing it through the skull later, Tacit's crew is pretty sure that Guilion is dead.
Are they sure? I think they might want to stab it few more times just to be on the safe side.
And maybe spend some time stabbing it in the other vital organs too for good measure.

no no no, decapitation is the only way to be sure.

That's wrong, but I'll let it slide because we have neither the Nukes, nor the orbital assets needed to be Sure.
Given how close he is to Seattle, I'm not sure we'd want to risk the collateral damage anyhow.

When the NPPDC Defense Force returns home, they're greeted by thunderous applause! The entire fight was broadcast live, showing everyone just how capable they are.
Everyone's in a pretty good mood-- the civilians for obvious reasons, the Defense Force themselves that they didn't take any casualties, and the jaeger pilots that the damn kaiju is finally dead. As an extra celebratory measure, it's decided that Guilion's skull will be sterilized, and set up as a monument to... something. It hasn't been decided on, but everyone agrees that it's pretty damn cool.
Examination of the kaiju's body reveals that the monster is exceedingly tough. Not only did it have body armour optimized to resist high explosives, it also contained a sort of "emergency power", that allowed it to resume peak efficiency for just about a minute. Had the SDF not been there to wear it down, the fight would have been a lot worse.
As it is, there's already stuff to fix. While Tacit's dents can be banged out, Jagdhund's arm is totalled. The frame will need major repairs, and an entirely new set of armour.
All Strikes repaired!
Jagdhund will require a dedicated action, 1125 Resources, and a new piece of armour.
It is now downtime.

Kaiju Stats:
Guilion
Class: Category V Kaiju
More than a hundred meters long, Guilion is the utmost personification of the word "kaiju". A quartet of powerful arms hang from its knotted shoulders, each ending in a scoop-shaped set of claws. A thick carapace coats its back and shoulders, protecting it from above, while its sternum comes to a point, like the prow of a ship. Guilion's head is built like an executioner's axe, a massive bony blade swooping up its face.

What's the plan for this week? Build and equip the new armor, build conventionals, tell KRAUN we just killed a Cat V?
We really do need those shields and better DEWs are something I've wanted for a while, Jaeger mounted railguns would be nice, but not essential in my opinion.

Not quite. You'd be able to fully armour one jaeger, and cover 8 locations on the other, leaving 9 locations not covered in SACP or Advanced Conpod Plating.

Nope. There's 19 hit locations and armor covers 17 of them. The conn pod protects the other 2. Also, rather than developing an arm cannon, why not research faster weapon swapping, like equipping a weapon stored on her back becomes a free action. It something that should take immediate effect instead of taking 1 more turn to build, and makes her much more flexible.
Also, could you be a bit more specific on what kind of DEW we are going for? It's quite open ended right now.

Don't think that's Breach research.
I want a wave motion gun. Something like Ravager's solar beam. Where do we start for that?
Updated to build an additional 10 piece of the armor so we can cover it all.
You guys are the ones who want Direct Energy Weapons, I can't say it's honestly on my priority list. I added it in to make sure it's there for you guys, I didn't put much thought into specifics beyond 'hey maybe we'll get something fun'.
If you can decided on what you specifically want, I'll edit the plan to reflect what you have in mind.
I figure it also means we'll always have the weapon there rather than her ever dropping it, and if it's built-in that should cause all the ammo to be built-in as well so the reloading will be taken care of automatically.
As it stands? I have a feeling that faster weapon swapping will take an augment anyway, which will also have to be constructed and will take up space we could use for other augments.
I had the impression it was related to the breach or an extension of breach-field manipulation of some kind.
