Since virology isn't really a reliable way to create and spread effective death plagues I guess they need to settle for inducing super powered chaos. Neat and gives a way to end the round other than poncy engineering.

Re: Maintenance drones [Needs sprites]

How about making the machine constructable and the limit tied to the number of existing machines?

So if the drones aren't being a pain in the ass and the living players want more of them they allow the creation of more.

The HG stun nerf model didn't result in a shift from stuns to non stuns.
