They can't mutiny but expect all of them to shit on you and you will end up losing the round because of it.

And with the recent mutiny rules, they won't mutiny for not having attachments because they denied me the APs.

Some marines will shit on you regardless of what you do.

Hell, today I had a RO round when the marine started shitting on me only because he saw one of his friends get 3 attachments for giving me a pistol bag and not him.

He literally wanted 3 attachments for doing nothing.

It's also powergaming.
You will never be as bad as the baldie who picked up a tactical shotgun while a hunter was pouncing on top of a CMO for 4 seconds, with his only response being to pace around before being decap'd by said hunter. You are not Brett Kimple, and you never will be. You are not the reason why I regular MP.

I'd probably agree with you if you didn't keep wearing that damn beret. I decapped you many times before because of that beret.

Brigged?

Boi, I once made the MP melt the pistols for me. They won't arrest me because even the CO approves of thus!

Also, berets are cool.

Its not guaranteed.

While on the balance of probabilities being struck by a AP round is likely to cause a fracture, however I have seen uncommon circumstances of where someone is struck by a AP round but is not fractured.

If you have a competent medic a single fracture won't take you out of the fight.

when you take a single hit and your splints start falling off, however, will

but its not like perfectly healthy marines aren't often fucked up bad after a single hit, so its not that big of a difference if you think about it

Honestly the biggest issue with AP rounds is when they shoot someone's chest and cause organ damage.

Having a ruptured lung is essentially perma death.

Due to many Commanders, or acting Commanders, having a hard on for denying medics access to peri early on this often results in obnoxious circumstances where you are stuck with someone with a broken lung of which you have two choices, leave them to their fate or babysit them back up to the Almayer, while reviving them every four minutes. Maybe you can use a stasis bag or something else but either way its really prohibitive and I don't trust MDs to know what drugs to make to cure genetic damage since I rarely see that happen.

Can't you just dexalin them up enough to get to the ship?
"Memories can be vile. Repulsive little brutes, like children I suppose. But can we live without them? Memories are what our reason is based upon. If we can't face them, we deny reason itself! Although, why not? We aren't contractually tied down to rationality. There is no sanity clause. So when you find yourself locked down in an unpleasant train of thought, heading for the places in your past where the screaming is unbearable, remember: There's always madness. You can just step outside and close the door, and all those dreadful things that happened, you can lock them away. Madness... is an emergency exit."

Apparently that's too complicated to make and therefore a waste of time and medication.

I use Dex but it does nothing last time I tried, at best it delayed their death by about ten seconds.
