Date: 940.M41
The fuck... what just happened. I think I got hit by a car, and after that I am here. And why do I feel weird, I can't make sense of what's happening here.
wait why can't I feel my arms.
Thefuckwherearemyarmsamidead. OK, calm down you're not dead. From what I can feel, I think I'm paralysed, and I can't move or feel my body. I probably should try to feel my body or try to open my eyes first before brooding on my situation. OK, I can't feel my eyes, but I think I'm feeling something, it's like a nagging felling in the back of my mind. I probably should concentrate on it...
the fuck, What's happening to me now. I think I'm regaining my senses back, well not all of them because I can't smell or feel shit but now I can finally hear and see again . Now let's see where am I now.
A forest, I'm in a forest. Wich means we're not in kansas anymore, did the ambulance dump me in a forest ?
Anyway what's up with my body, I Don't know if my body is that injured or it's just a flesh wound ?
Did I just get reincarnated ?
Yeah I definitely got reincarnated. Reincarnated as a Machine, a 'command' structure specifically, why I got reincarnated as a 'command' is beyond me. wich Is the starting structure in rusted warfare, what a lovely RTS game. Anyway, now it makes sense, that nagging feeling back there must have been some sort of mental switch, And
You might ask what are pros and cons of being a 'command' structure ?
Cons:
1. I can't move.
Pros:
1. I can make mech and shit.
2. I have good defences.
I didn't notice earlier but there's some sort of UI built in me, that i can navigate through mentally, wich is good.
Hey it might tell even me where I'm specifically. But first let's check what year is it
No, Not that, yes here it's. The calendar, the year is '940.M40'
..... if I'm not mistaken that's the imperium Calendar.
Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuckitty fuck.
Now I'm happy that I reincarnated as a Machine, at least now I have a chance of surviving and not becoming slaneesh's new play thing. Now It's time to start working. What do i have in tech ?
OK, I have the game base units Tech. Wich means I can meddle with them and combine them instead of having to rely only on the base game units. And i should start making scouts and builders units, asap.
Thankfully the production speed of these units didn't change and stayed the same, ergo I can make a fleet of them in matter of minutes if I have enough material. But the only thing that changed, is that I can't use credits to make them and instead I have to use ores and alloys. Wich is why I'm making designing a drill until.
Now that the first units are completed I sent them out to explore except the builder unit.
After I sent them I continued designing the drill unti. After quite some time I completed the design, then i produced one drill unti and I tried to move it,
But there was one problem, the other units when moving or performing any shape of motor movement, programs assist me in controlling them...
And then I was about blow a fuse, literally. Because that means everything I make a new type of units I will have to program them. And I'm shitty at programming. I put the drill unit on standby until I make a program.
Wich was time consuming, the first try of making a movement program was unsuccessful. The drill unit moved slightly and then triped over and fell on it's optics. And then I tried again, this time seeing what I did wrong.
Apparently, my first try didn't count in the fact that there's something called a center of gravity. And it didn't have the right moving cycle.
The second try was a success. Then I order it to mine the ores in the surrounding area, how did I know where the ores were ?
It's very easy, there's something called deep scan, it's field is limited to 100 meter, and take quite some time, like 1 hour to be completed.
And back to the drill unit. It managed to get a hefty amount of minerals, wich is enough to make ten more of the drill unit. After i took the ores, I started making 5 drill untis, and made a order to start mining once the production process ends.
And the scouts found a meteorite. And it's rich with ores, a jackpot.
It's located deep in the forest. Deep scans gave an estimate of the amount of ores it has, then I ordered them to continue exploring.
Though if I encounter I village or any type of civilization, I will retreat back. Because this is 40k
And I Don't want the imperium or any other faction breathing down my neck this early on.
And You might ask why I said 'I' instead of 'they'
That's because I can multitask because I'm a Machine now, wich allows me to controll every single unti in real time.
________________________________________
After the drill units returned with ores. I started making ground and Anti-Air defences, and a ground units factory, wich allows me to make stronger combat units, after the ground units factory got done, I started making an army.
With constant supply of minerals, and the scouts searching for more. It became automatic.
I forgot to mention that I produced more builder units and drill units. I sent the drill units to start mining ores with rest. Wich gave me a huge amount of constant supply of ores, and I couldn't be any happier.
And I made a Air units factory, and that allowed me to make drones, and they are faster than the basic scouts.
The drill units were hauling the ores back by themselves, and that slowed the supply of ores. Wich is why I made a new unit called
(F1-Hauler)... yes, I know, I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed. But hey, even a dull AI can reinvent the wheel if given enough time
Anyway, after what felt like eternity and after a 400gm of caffeine shoved down my non-existent mechanical throat while trying to remember how to make a wheel, you would think making a wheel is a basic Engineering 101 but apparently it's not when your Circuits are running overdrive because your stupid 300kg iron ass thought it's a good idea to control countless machines at the same time.
And finally, after what felt like taking a Math exam. I managed to complete the
F1-Hauler's design.
And then came the part of programming.
You'd think that being an AI will make it easier to program, but apparently that's not the truth. Because it took me what felt like eternity and a lot of AI's version of iced coffee, and after crashing into multiple drill units and, somehow a drone. I managed to make the program run without some unfortunate machine getting isekai'd by F1-Hauler kun
With the F1-hauler the beaten and worked to the circuits drill units won't have to walk half the distance of New York to kansas while lugging 30kg of Ores. Because the F1-Hauler will do this part, and making it seem Lees like the 1800s.
After the Haulers took over transporting Ores to the main base, aka me. and dumping the Ores inside of the main base so they will be refined later into proper alloys for production purposes.
Now the efficiency of the supply lines have been doubled, wich mean more shiny factories for me, and more factories means more mechs, and more mechs mea-
okay you get the idea.
