The Project - IC Thread

Stealthing forward, Damien approaches from the water and Arachne comes in from the land, with Monty flying around in circles above. Scott is in his position on top of one of the gantry cranes, with a good view over the whole of the deck of the ship.

All of the player characters are Speed 4, so we start on Phase 3, and Scott, Arachne and Damien all act on Dex/Ego 18, Monty is slower and goes on Dex 13, . You are in position, and are ready to move in.

Having achieved the deck of the ship Damien shakes some of the excess water from himself, before breaking the seal on the bag in which he kept his Mark 23 to keep it dry. He sneaks forward then and as soon as he finds the target Arachne identified, attempts to take him out.
 
Using her clinging to crawl up the side of the ship, Arachne pokes her head over the side to get a line of sight on the target she has chosen for herself. Focusing her will, she lashes out with a Mental Blast, hoping to stun the target.

OOC Can I push the Mind Blast for an additional 10 Active Points, doing 5d6 Damage? If yes, I'll do that and pay the extra Endurance cost.

Just to be clear, are you shooting the target, or are you going to use a different attack?

OOC Yes, you may Push up to 20 Active Points, at the End cost of 1-for-1. Make sure you keep track of your expenditures.

Arachne's OMCV is high enough to be able to easily target the human, and he clutches his head in agony and drops down to his knees. He has his rifle in his hands until he gets hit by the mental attack, and as he slumps down, he drops his assault rifle. He is still awake, but Stunned and near unconscious.
 
If there is a clear line of sight, Scott will attempt to support the others, trying to shoot whomever seems to be the bigger threat (probably not the one hit by Arachne's attack). Otherwise, he'll continue to chew on his slice of dried meat, waiting for the right moment to strike.

Yes he is shooting him with his silenced pistol :)

The pistol shot barks out, hitting the second man at the bow of the ship in the chest. He stands there for a moment, looking confused as he reaches down to touch the spot on his body where the bullet hit. The man staggers for a moment, but doesn't fall yet.

With Scott keeping watch from his perch, you see that the man that was shot is still standing. Taking a bead on the man, your shot fires out and slams into him, blowing out a large chunk of his chest and dropping him to the deck in a very dead fashion.

Monty is slower to react, but his strength makes up for his speed. He swoops down with his claws barred, and he slashes at the chest of the man that Arachne Psi Blasted. Blood sprays as the man tumbles down to the deck. He is either dead or knocked out.

Phase 4: both men in front of you are either dead or knocked out.

Phase 6: Back to the team at Dex/Ego 18. Silanon Silanon Psychie Psychie Monky Monky are all up.

NemoTheSurvivor NemoTheSurvivor while this is going on up on the ship, what are you doing? There are no visible targets around you at the moment.
 
Damien will walk over to frown down at the man he had helped fell. He at least wanted to check and make sure it was one of Al-Kahar's men, and not one of the ship workers, he'd feel much better if they didn't harm any of them... assuming of course that they were innocents in this deal. If they retaliated then they were enemies and he would have to take them down...
 
Damien can easily see that both men were armed; one with a sub-machine gun, and the second with an AK-47, making it unlikely that they were just members of the crew. So now, with both of them down, there are only eight more people onboard, inside the main structure at the aft of the ship. Arachne's Mind Scan was not enough to be able to tell which ones were terrorists and which ones were crew.
 
Sending through the Mind Link, Arachne says, Guards on the forward part of the ship are down. Remember, there are still eight minds left in the rear structure of the ship. Scott, keep your eyes open. Engage any target you spot. Monty and Damien, lets move out, and position yourselves on either side of the main hatch into the rear of the ship. I have a flashbang, and when everyone is in position, I'll toss it into the room, let it blow, and then we can sweep in and neutralize any tangos. Just remember that Al-Kahar is supposed to be strong enough to throw a tank, so keep out of his reach.
 
Meniru is currently parked a safe distance away from the pier, guarding the missiles by laying underneath the truck and using Camouflage to blend into the ground. She's keeping an eye out in case anyone comes to investigate.
 
Alright Arachne. Lets go. Damien confirms, checking the bodies over one last time for any walky talkies or radios, before beginning to prowl forward, hoping they could maintain the element of surprise a little bit longer.
 
Got your back covered - just tell 'em to come out so I can shoot 'em. As the others move forward, the dingo keeps watch, carefully eyeing the available exits to avoid any kind of nasty surprises. If anyone tries to get rid of his teammates aggressively, he'll be ready to pull the trigger.
 
Stealthing forward, Arachne pulls the pin on the flashbang, holding the spoon down to keep it from going off. Going up to the door, she mentally sends out, One, two, three! Yanking the door open, she throws the grenade into the room and shields her head from the shockwave by staying behind the door, leaving it clear for Damien and Monty to tear into the bad guys inside.
 
The grenade flies in, and you can hear a voice say, "Hey, what's that?" just before the grenade goes off. There is at least one person on the other side of the door that has been hit by the concussion of the flashbang, and Damien is next in the lineup.

From his position on the sniper's nest, Scott can see a pair of figures in the ship's wheelhouse. You have a clear line of fire on either one at this moment. Do you take a shot?
 
Is there any sign whether those two belong to the crew or to Al-Kahar's group, like weaponry, clothing or anything similar?
 
Yeah, same question when Damien looks inside. He'll be aiming for the nearest armed figure as he moves in.

One of the two on the bridge of the ship is packing a sub-machinegun of some kind. The other man is not armed that you can see; probably a member of the ship's crew.

Damien moves in to take advantage of the confusion of Arachne's grenade, and you see two men sitting at a table. Both have pistols on their belts, and there is a pair of assault rifles propped up against the empty seat. Both men are blinded and deafened from the blast, making them easy targets to hit.
 
As the two come into sight, Scott carefully takes aim at the armed man. He waits a moment for the perfect shot, takes a deep breath right before pulling the trigger - there is no hesitation to kill a man who decided to be involved in murder and chaos. And if the bullet happens to not kill him outright - it might at least down him, and keep the crew man busy.

OOC: Taking a distance shot.
 
The shot rings out, punching a hole in the glass of the wheelhouse as it passes through on its way to hit the armed man. It causes massive damage, spinning the target around in a circle before he falls to the deck. If he's not dead, he's in real trouble.
 
Monky Monky you have a pair of targets in front of you, both of which are disabled due to the flash attack. Which one do you attack, and with what weapon?
 
OOC: Claw is still single target right? Might need to see about getting a cone on it once I've got some more points :p

Damien steps quickly into the room and to the left of the door to make room for the others as he takes aim on the left seated target with his Mark 23. The guns clearly identified them as hostiles, and as such he had no compulsions about pulling the trigger.
 
Damien's Mark 23 jumps in your hand as you fire, drawing blood from the man on the left. He is badly hurt, and is slumping down to the deck of the ship.

Monty steps forward with his M-60 and tears into the other man with a deadly five round burst that damn near cuts him in half.

That was Segment 9.

Segment 10 rolls around, and from the doorway to the left in the room that Damien, Monty and Arachne are in comes a figure with a H&K sub machinegun. He raises up his weapon at Monty and pauses in shock as the image of the monster in front of him sinks in. Shaking off the shock, he pulls the trigger and fires a burst at the Manticore. Monty chooses to abort his action on Segment 12 and dive to the side to dodge out of the way. The bullets hit the wall behind you and ricochet around the room, luckily doing no damage to anyone.

Segment 12, Dex/Ego 18 = Psychie Psychie , Monky Monky , Silanon Silanon , you are all up. NemoTheSurvivor NemoTheSurvivor there is still no sign of anyone around you, but the fight on the ship has been going on for only a few seconds, so there hasn't been enough time to get security forces to respond.
 
As the fight in the interior seems to begin, with the sound of flying bullets hearable from the distance, there is an urge to join them down there, to sink his teeth into the terrorists' flesh in close-combat - but that's not his role, at least for now. Instead, he musters the wheelhouse once more through the scope, trying to see what the second man intends to do. At the same time, he directs his thoughts towards their one, lonely member, knowing that Arachne might have other things to worry about pretty soon. Everything's alright over there, Meniru? Fight's starting, first one's down on the floor already.
 
Damien's gaze flickers briefly to the new assailant, but all the hours of practice keeps him focussed and he squeezes the trigger into the downed figure, making sure he stays down.

(Shooting the same target to finish him off)
