[ And despite Wash's obvious feelings about Freelancer, there's some genuine admiration in his voice. He'd seen the way North worked with Theta, seen how seamlessly York and Delta worked with each other. ]
It would've expanded it's range greatly, for one. Probably allowed me to place pulses centralized away from me, at range, precision ones that would only affect as much as I wanted to. Tie that together with how well and how quickly an AI analyzes a battle situation, an EMP [ still EMP ] enhancement with a functioning AI partner might've been able to disable all the weapons on every soldier in an entire base, while leaving everything else untouched.
Or it could disable the entire base. Or just some key systems, leave non-targets unaffected . . . The Project wasn't for nothing. [ A pause. ] Shouldn't have been for nothing.
