"Well, you just volunteered yourself for the job. You're the only 'human' one here anyway."

[Remalle]

(I'm not sure how recent my cheat sheet stats are, but I think I still have penalties to speech and such.  Are you really sure you want me to announce us?  Because if so I'm just going to leave it up to a speech roll for the lulz.)

[SeriousConcentrate]

(I have at least a -2 to speech IIRC. You're probably better off than I am. If you really want, though, you can pass it off to Pyro; I don't think Simus has any penalties, although I could be wrong.)

[Remalle]

"...I'm going to delegate this task to Simus."

[PyroDesu]

((I do believe I do have penalties, I just don't make my action vague. Actually saying what you want to say instead of leaving it to a speech roll can be a very good idea.))

All right, though I suggest you guys turn off your external mics for  moment, I'm going to have to make it loud. Anyone got the name of the colony? I know you asked that guy from the government sector, Feyri.

((Drozden III, but that's not IC knowledge. Don't think it ever got shared, so only Feyri knows.))

Name:Flint/Deeper Scum - Team C - C Block entrance

"Everything burnt, biohazard suits... Hmmm... Didn't McDude say that the Scientists were burning people in the housing blocks? Do you think that's what happened here? Do you think that 'Scientists' is the name of their gang or are they actually scientists? Because I can't imagine crowbar wielding scientists in biohazard suits looting homes and burning people alive. They usually use giant robots or abominations for that." Oh great, now I've begun to joke about corpses and death...

Start searching the closest houses for anything not burnt. If the exosuit is to big to enter houses, stand outside and keep watch for any sign of movement.

@Stacy:"Stacy, didn't you say you heard something on the radio, but the signal wasn't strong enough to make out the words, because it came from further down? Do you want to try again? Maybe we're in range now."

@Stacy:"Stacy, didn't you say you heard something on the radio, but the signal wasn't strong enough to make out the words, because it came from further down? Do you want to try again? Maybe we're in range now."

"Good thinking there! I did say that, didn't I?"

Check radio frequencies for anything interesting. You know, other than juicy teammate gossip. Follow Miyamoto while I do this.

"Looks like whoever these scientists were, they meant business. Place is burnt up good. Wonder if anyone's alive or if we got the easy wing again."

[Spinal_Taper]

"You think they've got a trap up there?"
Heat vision, X-ray, then head on up. Carefully.

((I suppose anyone who was nearby also knows, McDude didn't whisper it.))

[Team B Leader=Milno]

"Stick to the sides, avoid being in the open. Don't die at least until we are closer to getting the job done." Milno said, moving to the sides.

Start to move slowly ahead from cover to cover, and if lacking cover, move crouched to the side of buildings, looking inside and around.

Blare at full volume: "People of Block B, we were sent to rescue any survivors from whatever happened in this colony. All of you will receive clemency for any crimes as long as you surrender peacefully. Answer to our call and do not attack, because we are authorized to return fire at any hostiles."

Brother Lars spoke some quiet prayers over the radio while following Saint Milno.  "O Pathmas, may your will fall in our favor!  Steve, guide us with your gentle green light!"

He would have to study the book further to look for gods of diplomacy.


Follow and assist Milno.


((Lars doesn't know the HMRC well if he thinks there are gods of diplomacy.))

[Harry Baldman]

((Lars doesn't know the HMRC well if he thinks there are gods of diplomacy.))

((There probably is one, though. Puny, weak, stunted and barely worshipped, perhaps, but nonetheless a god of diplomacy.))

[Nikitian]

(( Hey!
I've long wanted to post this, so here it is:
Diplomacy is one of the preferred HMRC ways, when it is possible, of course. Because persuading opponents to surrender, for example, means no wasted ammo, no stray shots and wounds, and less collateral damage. Which is a competent action in my book, and the Competence is perhaps the most divine and desired among all the virtues revered by the HMR Corpsmen. All the more that even our command is apparently encouraging and perhaps even selecting for that sort of behavior.
Truly diplomacy is nothing to be looked down upon. Of course, that is if we shun the ways of Bumbling, Greedy and Murderous Idiot. ...Well, pity. ))

[Harry Baldman]

Stop, double post.

[Zako]

"Enough messing around! Let's do this!" Bishop stated, seeing how the team just hung around doing nothing with no instructions from the team leaders.

Breach and clear the area, scanning the place with my motion sensors for movement.

[Harry Baldman]

((Truly diplomacy is nothing to be looked down upon. Of course, that is if we shun the ways of Bumbling, Greedy and Murderous Idiot. ...Well, pity. ))

((Mostly everyone in the HMRC is either bumbling, greedy or murderous by nature or by the HMRC's nurture. Because of this, competence is indeed a rare trait, and the main reason people idolize the AM and Milno. So peaceful diplomacy is definitely not the HMRC way. Diplomacy accompanied by grisly violence and loot-making opportunities, however, is.))
