Ryan ate some bad shrooms and was being baby sat in camp.
Team went back to Owasso to check for any salvage able items, in APV.
After searching found a robotic leg, and 1 MDC chest plate and Greaves.
It was late enough that we camped there.  Tim took last watch and had an encounter with “All-Father/One-Eye”
Where he was warned things are not as they seem.
After he had a chat with Odin,  He found there were 2 APVs, We investigated it.

Opening it up there was no driver controls, just a screen(emblem?) that read [AUTOBOT1 — Proterty of A.R.C.H.I.E-3]
This lead to a existential conversation about the Isaki universe and the combining of game worlds, the possibility of the game writers either seeing potential futures, alternate realities, or were just in a simulation.
AUTOBOT1 transformed into its transformer mode, which spiraled Tim’s existential crisis further.
A conversation, resulted in finding out AUTOBOT1 was running from Archie, because Archie is a dick and treats them like the slaves they are.  

We took AUTOBOT1 Back to the Eastwood encampment, Where he had some further planning and Tim trying to get drunk on the  moonshine we were making, for trade and powering small generator.  

We named AUTOBOT1— IRON HOUND as it’s transformed state it looks like a cross between Hound and Ironhide.

During some planning of searching the local are for more usable items such as Stainless steel, and what not from the local distilleries, and steel shops, one of the camps hunters comes running in and tells us of a horned monster that tore one of the members apart.

We loaded up in Iron Hound and headed in the direction the hunter told us, we got just south of Frandor, and Iron Hound told of a contact on sensors 50 yards in front of us that “Blinked” around us a couple of times. We stopped and got out, It blinked to north of us, The contact turned out to be a Wendigo, My calling this out caused Tim to “Crack” and went berserker and ran up and tried hitting it with his tomahawk, and shooting it with his pistol( his SDC pistol),  This of course did nothing. Teddy moved to protect me after “Thingizing”.  The Wendigo “gated to the south of us.  It’s gating allowed Tim to clear his head, I shot it a couple of times, and Ted moving up towards it, got put to [SLEEP], and he dirt napped for a couple of rounds.  Once Tim fully cleared his head he ran towards the Wendigo and tried talking.  The Wendigo, then just gated away, and as it backed into it’s gate, Tim and I noticed it had a robotic eye.  “Wha da fuq?”

Iron Hound told us we need to leave, as the Fauxdigo, was an Archie “Decepticon”.

We decided that since it knew where the encampment was, and Tim’s desire to return to the tribe in Clare, that is what we would do.  We packed up the usable items from the encampment, caged the goats and chickens, and packed everyone else into or on the APVs, with the couple of Horses we moved up to Clare.  With Tim’s vouching for us, the tribe took us in.

We hooked the real APV up as a power plant for the town, built and ARC forge,

We have the capabilities to recharge E-clips,( takes 24 hours)  were given Huntsman body armor [40MDC body / 30 MDC helmet, Weighs 16lbs]

Tim and I started trying to figure out how to make MDC melee weapons.
What we determined we can make MDC material Melee weapons but that requires someone that has the strength to do MDC damage for them to do MDC damage otherwise they are just really sturdy versions of SDC weapons.

From the group think of the internet, If you can build a MDC Mono-molecular weapon, you can build a Vibro weapon as the MM weapon body would need to be protected from its energized cutting edge.

The Tribe has asked that in return for taking us in we become the one of their “Exploratory Redshirt Away Teams” or as I will now call us E-Rats
