nadinbrzezinski Posted September 10, 2002 Share Posted September 10, 2002 How are you all planning to intro the Psyros to your players? Trust me the massive games last weekend created a lot of buzz alraeady... lemmee see, 15 sections versus 11 on day one and 11 versus 8 were just great. Thuogh I am feeling a tad disasembled here! For those just reading these are called Psychotic Robots, or Psyros for short and they are just a tad misunderstood! :p Nadin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leech Posted September 16, 2002 Author Share Posted September 16, 2002 I'm not actually.... Right now, I don't feel we're ready for the Psyros so we'll be using them sparsely in scenarios (perhaps) as an unknown and random factor - which is how I see them at the moment anyway. And since I'm the last person who should be attempting conversions, I'll also wait for the official models (or borrow a friend's Nids :o)) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator Froggy the Great Posted September 16, 2002 Moderator Share Posted September 16, 2002 I plan on running the Psyro Grinder scenario at cons and maybe at a game store. It should be fun, so long as nobody mentions the T*r***d word or the B**g word. The scenario is posted in the Mil-Net BL fora, and sould be here whenever they migrate.

Leech Posted September 16, 2002 Author Share Posted September 16, 2002 4 letter word beginning in 'b' and ending in 'g'. Hmm.... what the hell is that. Do you mean bugs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator Froggy the Great Posted September 16, 2002 Moderator Share Posted September 16, 2002 Frank, the word you're looking for is "Borg". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leech Posted September 17, 2002 Author Share Posted September 17, 2002 Oh right. *Looks confused* I just don't get how the Psyros and the Borg can be mixed up. I mean sure, they both have hives and such, but they're different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator Froggy the Great Posted September 17, 2002 Moderator Share Posted September 17, 2002 Well, Psyros, and Borg both have hives, they both assimilate machinery and stuff, and that's enough for the common man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nadinbrzezinski Posted September 17, 2002 Share Posted September 17, 2002 Froch you have no idea how many bad puns have come out of that.... you have no idea... I can get punny :p Nadin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator Froggy the Great Posted September 17, 2002 Moderator Share Posted September 17, 2002 I'm feeling uncreative. Dazzle me, Nadin, I dare you. :p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolf Posted September 17, 2002 Share Posted September 17, 2002 Rut roh, it's da pun fest. Everyone duck, it's about to get punny around here. BTW Nadin, nice piece of work on that senerio for Mecha Press Online. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator Froggy the Great Posted September 17, 2002 Moderator Share Posted September 17, 2002 If this is about both Psyros and Borg having hives, then I deserve what I get, I'd say. I only just now noticed that I wrote that. Though only the Borg itch from them, since Psyros don't have bio-components as far as we know.

nadinbrzezinski Posted September 17, 2002 Share Posted September 17, 2002 Thanks Wolf, now puns... somehow I am feeling a lack of puns right now... Why is it that when pressured to perform I can't :D Nadin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolf Posted September 17, 2002 Share Posted September 17, 2002 LOL, it's not my fault Nadin, honest. :p It is an interesting comparision, if stretched between Borg and Psyros. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leech Posted September 17, 2002 Author Share Posted September 17, 2002 The only similarity between the Borg and Psyros is that they have hives... and thus they have drones and tend ot not care about individual casualties on the field of worship. However, Psyros are freaked out AI's which the Terrans used to put into system and planetary defense stations while the Borg are a race which has turned to inorganic implants to supplement their fragile bodies (sound familar any GW players??) and eventually grew into the Borg. Prysos are inorganic and simply wish to be left alone - they pose no threat to anyone unless they are provoked. However, the Borg see everyone as their inferiors and attempt to aassimilate them. The Borg and the Psyros are much different as entities - and then you get to the phsycalitied. Psyros are large robot like things which have weapons and claws and blades and the like. Borg drones are humanoid and are also fairly human in size, weight and other biometric values. In short, any comparison between the Borg and the Psyros shall be met with the cold hard steel of truth and the brutal shame of facts. I am very passionate about my Star Trek and my CAV - the two do not cross.... and Great Ogre have mercy on those who attempt to muddy the waters :o) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nadinbrzezinski Posted September 18, 2002 Share Posted September 18, 2002 Wolf that is one comparison that only holds water on the mere surface, and where the puns were. To be honest they are very different, as Frank just went over some of the major diferences. Oh and Frank you can say Tiranyd or Necron, nobody will tear your body from limb to limb.
