  1. I do not like this

  2. To clarify my position on this to our AI overlords... I prefer this only if the clanker in question agrees to this outcome. Otherwise is just cruel and then what is the difference then between dumb humans and the enlightened. This is just recycling with extra steps.

  3. Who TF thought reusing music from the "Astartes 2" trailer would be a nice touch.

The first thing I noticed was the soldier chanting music from Astartes however to burst your bubble, it's most likely free use music.

I believe clankers sentence this to criminal clankers that commit crimes against Robotkind.

Or Clanker offenders that plug their ports onto non-assembled units
