>>5529052The Team D techies accidentally rebuilt the upgrade kit into a little robot dog that does tricks(it was really adorable, you should've see it!), so they had to do the whole "troop recovery" thing by hand. And I dare say, they did quite a bang-up job at it!
Introducing the z-troopers and their slightly less lucky brothers the build-a-troopers, or as the plunder warriors nicknamed them, "ohgodwhat" or "kill it with fire". Built out of the highest-quality corpses, brainchips and metal pipes, they are just as good as a brand new d-trooper, maybe even better! As long as you ignore them only sometimes having hands. And them dropping dead(again) the moment the juice in their backpack runs out. And them falling apart mid-battle. And them falling apart during menial tasks. And them falling apart just for no reason at random. But hey, if they DO fall apart, you only need ten minutes time and some highly illegal "surgical" equipment to fix them up! And if you can't fix them up, they're perfectly fine with fighting while down an arm or a leg two!
