Question: Cloning and Organs

So while listening to old Scifi intros to inspire me for sessions, I remembered an old show called SilverSun,

and one of their plots revolved around their Captain dying, and an emergency protocol to open up a special pod, revealing an unawakened clone of the captain.

The plan was to simply harvest the necessary material from the clone without awakening it, and put it back on ice after the procedure. Now in the show one of them wakes up the clone because of an ethetical high ground they felt,

But I am now curious, how would the world of Lancer handle that?

Do they individually clone organs? or do they make flash homunculus to nurse the organs?

And where does that fall under Union's newer laws of Clone rights and liberties to not being property?

Who would you use Universal Comparability on? (Outside of Efficient core powers obviously because those are just free gimmes)

For me personally, one of the best options I can see is Gilgamesh, since you cleanse yourself with your core power, give loads of shield, and just a reset, so pairing it with a full heal and cool down and a chance to regain it,

Seems crazy

But who else do you think is just as good?

Does anyone run Siege Specialist II RAW?

Been discussing this at my table because I do enjoy destroying terrain to help open up plays by my allies, and wanted to invest more into the skill, but seeing that Impact is MANDATORY, there is NO choice when it triggers,

Felt really off to me, like I'm pretty sure 99% of the other talents effects are *Mays*, it seems really weird that one that can have friendly fire and forces you to move, is mandatory.

My table all agree it should be a choice to trigger impact but what do you guys think?

This thought came to be as I was discussing the dark dystopian aspects of each manufacturer, (HA and Horus were self explanatory, and for IPS-N I just said to recall the opening scenes of Elysium)

But when the topic of SSC came up, outside of the eugenics, I was also discussing their exotic material acquisitions,

And realised.

That SSC would 100% try to capture and replicate Xenomorphs for domesticated weaponry and let hundreds and thousands of people die for it.

And they also would strive towards androidism and, if Ra wasn't looking, would be more driven to uploading the mind into said androids.

And the name alone is also similar with the Western-Eastern collaboration.
