    Pegasus' gun: You print an Everest. You never chose to install this gun, and never will. But you always have, and always will. Every turn, you do not shoot. But you chose to shoot. It has shot. It will shoot. The gun has killed thousands, millions, an ocean of blood and violence laid at your doorstep. And yet it is pristine, fresh with oil from the post-print assembly, a decorative weapon unfit to actually use that is responsible for every murder ever. Including yours. Your eye twitches. You stare into the open barrel, and within that inky black, you see yourself holding the gun to the head of another you, rifling spiralling around you, leading you towards a future you'll never reach, but you will arrive at. You print an Everest.

    I had a Goblin Frame called Error Data Not Found, it was such an issue for my DM because I took my pilot gear which was a Camo Cloth, curled into a 'fetal position' and sat silently hacking the ENTIRE campaign. The NHP inside who gave itself the name Echo, was so hell bent on just annoying the enemy I didn't even have to 'cycle it.' The only time I ever took damage was in my Everest, the rest of the campaign I spent hiding stunning enemies, unloading their weapons, forcing them to hallucinate, and even made a Lancer Pilot so paranoid he blew itself up.

    Thinking about the paracausality of the Pegasus just a little bit more, I've realised that what the Ushabti Omnigun does is erase/ignore/omit/bypass _every single causal event_ involved in the gun's use except for: 1. Pilot decides on a target. 2. Target gets hurt. The gun does not get aimed. It does not fire. A projectile does not travel. Based on the gun's flavour text, it even skips the causal prerequisites of _being invented yet_ and (of course) _physically existing on the mech._

    My favorite thing about the Lich frame is that it literally just appeared out of thin air inside of a group of engineers garage with all the proof that they were the ones that made it despite them actually never having done that. With so much proof even going as far as there being an actual voice mail from them in the files of the frame embedded in their own code.

    my "who/what is HORUS?" theory is that it's every one of those theories. since they communicate largely via omninet, there's just NHPs and alien horrors working together with "regular human" hackers and they mostly blend together thanks to internet-anonymity and perhaps a culture of not caring about someone's origins / (non-)biology

    I agree, except in my interpretation they aren't even aware of each other at all: H0rus is just one big Stand Alone Complex-style mess of bored script kiddies, omninet 4channers and random criminals, terrorists and impersonators using the name, working separately and never communicating. And that's just the people in H0rus who don't realize they're part of H0rus. All of the people/NHPS/Eldritch nightmares from beyond who think they actually ARE H0rus are also completely unaware of each other and working separately towards different goals, all convinced all the other 'Real' H0rus groups are just more organized imitators. But no matter what they do, no matter how tangled the web gets, they are ALL H0rus. All working towards the goals of someone or something directly or indirectly without even knowing what those goals are: The 'True' H0rus. H0rus is not a group, it's a phenomenon that is also a lie that is also many separate truths that is also a pyramid with a capstone no one knows. H0rus is a snake unaware it's eating it's own tail. And Ouroboros' must devour itself.

    A neat way to look at Paracausality or Paracausal tech is "Things that alter the relation between cause and effect." Easiest example would be the blink gates, as they make the effect of traveling through space near instantaneous. Cause: entering blinkspace. Effect: shortening travel between a and b to a near instant speed. The Ushabti "gun" is Paracausal because due to it not being a gun it still transports the artillery of a weapon that may not exist presently. In this instance it unleashes an effect before any meaningful cause can occur. Meaning that black hole looking thing on the back of a pegasus may be more akin to a 1 way temporal or transdimensional portal, which is why it isn't a gun.

    how the pegasus guns work for me: it hits the enemy. And because you hit that enemy, it means you fired the gun correctly, and pressed the trigger at the right time. Effect becomes cause. Also i think the biggest narrative hurdle with Horus is that well.. rules say you can just choose a horus license, lore says you cannot. You are chosen for it. But why and by who? no one knows. And it may be better no one knows you got your hands on horus tech either, since some think to get access to a horus license you have to kill it's previous owner...

    The Balor sounds like a really funny mech because with the proper support of teammates (such as with a certain IPS-N mech) the thing would be borderline unkillable outside of something truly whacky like Vlad Combat Drill overkill for 1 billion damage in a single hit. It is literally NANOMACHINES SON! the mech.

If he has achieved the unachievable then there are bigger things for him to worry about then what he will do next. Like if some Spartan who looks like a ghost comes to use him to prop up a door. If he could stop pushing the boulder he not only would but he would be attempting yet another escape (which would make it like his fifth or sixth one at that point. Wonder if Hades would ask for Zeus' help at that point. Replace the first murderer in the burning ring that lights the underworld with Sisyphus so he physically can't escape. Hope he's happy being on fire, bet people take great joy when that happens. One simply has to imagine Sisyphus happy as he's used as kindling).

    I like the idea that the Omnigun on Pegasus is a device that causes the target to be hit by a bullet. Not one that fires bullets. But one which simply _causes_ the target to be hit by a (probably 'unrelated') bullet, possibly one falling from space from a conflict centuries ago, possibly a stray shot or ricochet from the fighting nearby, possibly a small metal meteorite or piece of space debris that just happened to arrive, possibly a round of the target's own ammunition detonating mysteriously, possibly a hitherto-unnoticed third party to the conflict shows up and shoots the target for their own reasons at the exact moment the user decides to activate it. Maybe, once in a very long while, it actually appears to produce its own bullet. Where did the bullet come from? That's how I imagine it, at least. It just... deals a point of armour-piercing kinetic damage. Unavoidably. _Inevitably._ Without counting as an attack! With a whole "Nothing in this book or any other can prevent or mitigate this damage." line. It seems almost to be making a point that the damage has a type at all...

Step 1: regardless if you're attached to a buddy or not, lock on to a target with your first tech attach. Step 2: invade the locked on target to add damage on top of whatever silly hax you pull. Don't take my word as gospel though. Goblins can be built to do anything they feel like doing.

    My personal opinion about HORUS is that it's an umbrella label that has been give to an absolute mess of vaguely affiliated clusters of activists that primarily recruit from and operate from the equivalent of Space-#chan. Thus, the majority of the rank and file are the usual deranged Anons who are doing it for the memes (and potentially something to do with their lives). Local regions (such as the Long Rim) may have something resembling a command structure (ie uncle_gg's cult), but their influence is limited to their stomping groups. Short of RA deciding to make it happen (and that runs into the 'why does God need a starship?' issue), getting them to act as a cohesive whole is impossible. Considering the shear size of Union, its likely almost all of the conspiracy theories are true in some part of it, but again that's regional.
