I removed that because on-pitch restrictions are so easy to forget and might even get into conflict with site rules (although in this case I doubt the latter).

You always have to pick the skills in the order of the list, from the top to the bottom. No choosing at all. Smile

What do you guys think, can Bonegnawer be turned into a Minotaur and a Skryre Slave into a Skaven Renegade? I'd say no to both...

Ranked Invasion Cube 006 - Encounter #001

Information: Species self-identified as Goblin. Consisted of eleven small green subjects, three equiped with inorganic objects that appeared hazardous to both drones and subjects alike, accompanied by two much larger subjects.

Analysis: The smaller subjects were elusive and demonstrated similar anti-blocking matrices as were reported earlier by Ranked Invasion Cube 005. The larger subjects were of questionable intelligence.

Threat Assessment: Medium. Inorganic objects were removed by a third party before significant testing could be completed but appeared potentially hazardous. Three drones were badly hurt during the operation and three more were discovered to be highly sensitive to the extreme heat conditions. Recommend further testing if any future operations are to be conducted in unusual climates.

Outcome: Favourable for the Hive although no subjects were assimilated.

I agree. Bonegnawer isn't strong enough to rate Minotaur and the slave isn't as well.

also, there is currently four normal skills in the hive mind at the same level for a maurader. (guard, frenzy, prehensile tail, thick skull)

which one takes Precedence?

It's a "No" to both as well from this drone.

Iam really tempted to make a human team to defend humanity from this borg invasion from the Delta Quadrant.

Or make a High Elf team of Q's that are just sick and tired of these stupid borg and plan on finishing them off forever.

Feel free to do so! We already have a Slann team dedicated to war against the Borg. Very Happy

@Bullroarer: Simply take the first skill from the list that your player can learn (on a normal roll - on a double you pick the first skill that is only available on a double).

I have updated the group page, hopefully all old stuff has been removed now and some things have become clearer!
If you spot some bad wording, feel free to correct me.

Report from Ranked Invasion Cube 001 encounter #3

Ranked Invasion Cube 001 made contact with new species: High Elf. The enemy vessel was inhabited by eleven subjects with biological distinctiveness ready for assimilation. Analysis of this new species power is indeterminate.


Information acquired: The entities refer to themself as High Elf. They show some increased agility and reflexes, but a lack of inherent skills. Further analysis has to be started on ways to assimilate those subjects into the collective.


Threat assessment: Low. Subjects seem to have an inherent tendency to avoid conflict.

Assimilations:
None.
