When the subject of the alarming increase in the rate of breakdowns came up in the next staff meeting, everyone became alarmed.
"Is this true?!"
"How can we still contest if our mechs don't work anymore?"
"We can send our armed Vandals and Swordmaidens in on foot!"
"You daft idiot! With what weapons?! Our comms, combat armor and firearms won't work anymore! What are we going to fight with?! Our fists?!"
"The Swordmaidens will likely take to that environment like fish in water." Someone joked half-seriously. "Just think about it. Half of their individual combat prowess is tied to their genetic modifications and their razor-sharp swords. The breakdown effect won't affect their combat effectiveness at all!"
That put the Vandals to thought. If no one came up with a solution that counteracted the breakdown effect, then the Swordmaidens would likely reign supreme within a hundred kilometers of the Starlight Megalodon!
