''"Confirmed Revs! Loyalty implants and nothing but!"'' - Anonymous Quartermaster, shortly before suffering a tragic work-related accident | |||
During a revolution, you play a pivotal role that can turn the tide for either side. Because of this, you will almost always be a target for both security (for implants) and revolutionaries (for weapons). Just because you're not a head of staff doesn't mean you're safe from the revolutionary lynchings. Security also isn't afraid of beating you if you don't order more loyalty implants. And if you happen to be one of the scant few bourgeoisie who have taken up the [[Revolution|cause of the working man]], remember to convince your [[Cargo Technician|comrades]] that it is time to rise up and throw off the chains of the [[Captain|opressors]] - Those who suffer the most under the harsh yoke of the capitalists will be your staunchist allies in the glorious struggle. Always remember Comrade - A true revolutionary seeks [[Mining Outpost|a peaceful solution]], if at all possible. | |||

''"Why does the Quartermaster have more guns than me?"'' - Jeremiah Swift, Head of Security | |||

Being a Traitor QM is one of the best damn things in the game. As a Quartermaster, you have direct and easy access to weapons and tools many other jobs do not have access to, and can easily conceal most of your nefarious deeds. Cutting the cameras is the first step to <s>success</s> drawing attention to yourself, followed closely by ordering and hiding a weapons crate, better yet, send the crate back and stash the loot in your locker. Hell, you can even order a ton of weapons crates and give all the weapons to the greyshirts. Maybe they'll accomplish your objectives for you. If you're feeling daring, order a [[Syndicate Items#Cryptographic Sequencer|Cryptographic Sequencer]] and use it to unlock any crate you want. You can even emag the ordering computer to get the Special Ops crate, which has some nifty things. Problem is, it makes it a dead giveaway that you're a traitor, so pocket what you want to keep, space what you don't, and send the crate back. Don't forget to awaken the MULE's bloodlust, that'll cause some havoc, creating an amazing distraction, and you can blame one of your slaves to take the heat off yourself. | |||

You can do all of those things listed and still be a mediocre or just decent QM. Many members of the station know that the QM can make things they aren't supposed to, and most security officers will overlook a little recreational [[Hacking]]. Hack the Autolathe to make nifty toys like [[Rapid Construction Device|RCDs]] and [[Flamethrower|Flamethrowers]]. You dont even need a multitool for this one. Just snip and fix till you find the one that turns off the blue light - Remember your [[Insulated_gloves#Gloves|rubber gloves]], because the green light makes it shock you. As long as you don't try to wall off QM with an RCD, most people will forgive you for wasting resources on it to be prepared. | You can do all of those things listed and still be a mediocre or just decent QM.

It's common for the Quartermaster to, at the very least, [[Hacking#MULEbot|enable the MULEbots']] nonstandard cargo and speed the motor up, though you can also upgrade the power cell if you have spares. The MULE is one of your best tools as a Quartermaster, and can make your life (and subsequently the lives of the rest of the crew) so much better. | |||

There's also a [[Engineering#Engineering_Secure_Storage|certain way]] to open crates you shouldn't, if you can [[emag|get]] [[Head of Personnel|your]] [[Chief Engineer|hands]] [[Engineer|on]] [[Assistant|it]]. Security will often panic about a Quartermaster that is better equipped than they are, so keep your ill-gotten gains hidden and secure until they are needed. | There's also a [[Engineering#Engineering_Secure_Storage|certain way]] to open crates you shouldn't, if you can [[emag|get]] [[Head of Personnel|your]] [[Chief Engineer|hands]] [[Engineer|on]] [[Assistant|it]].
