[Damn, sorry guys. Hadn't notice this had started. I apologise for my lateness.]

Zadii shoulders his rifle, his eyes scanning the surroundings around him as he quickly moves towards the foothills. Fully intending to take advantage of the cover and hide himself before deciding a plan further action with his comrades. Keying the intercoms before, "I suggest we get out of the open first. We can discuss a further plan of action when we all aren't standing around."

Move to the foothills, take cover.

Search for an enemy to shoot. Shoot it.
[6] ENEMIES! ENEMIES EVERYWHERE! You take out your sword and start hacking up trees all around the drop zone. The group gives you odd looks as they move out.

Elron checks his gear, making sure he has everything, and takes out his pistol, slinging his rifle(? Let's just call it a rifle now.) over his back. He runs forwards, cautiously. He tries to find a place he could sniper from, without being detected. If none, he'll settle for a bush.
[2] You stumble over a root, and while you catch yourself, you aren't in a good position to snipe from.

stark heads for the nearest cover in a low crouch while waiting to see if the others flank the complex via the foothills
[2] Standing, you make your way towards the foothills, but are towards the back of the group.

((Colors may be useful.))
"Planning ahead may be good, but we didn't really get any maps of this complex. Winging it may be our only option. I say you sniper guys get some vantage points and guide us trough."
Try to find some cover and duck behind it.
[3]You find an excelent spot of cover in the foothills, but you can't get there without being seen by guards.

Provide rear guard for the group.
[4] You cover the dark, sparse woods behind you as the group moves forward towards the foothills.

((Present))

"I told you we should have come up with a plan. Over and out."

Locate a spot in the foothills with concealment and a vantage point over the whole mining camp. Quietly.
[4] You find a cozy spot of cover on the border between the forest and the foothills, on the top of a larger hill, and take the opportunity to survey the camp.
While you can clearly tell what some buildings are for, you can't be sure about the rest.

>Scout ahead, trying to find any guards that we need to take down.
[5] You make your way into the foothills, where you start looking for guards from a handy piece of cover.

[Damn, sorry guys. Hadn't notice this had started. I apologise for my lateness.]

Zadii shoulders his rifle, his eyes scanning the surroundings around him as he quickly moves towards the foothills. Fully intending to take advantage of the cover and hide himself before deciding a plan further action with his comrades. Keying the intercoms before, "I suggest we get out of the open first. We can discuss a further plan of action when we all aren't standing around."

Move to the foothills, take cover.
[2] You're stuck at the edge of the forest.

Relay information on the base quietly over the intercom, as well as intel picked up from me recon. Oh, and while I'm giving my action, I'm watching the base and keeping an eye out for foes. Possibly through the scope, with my finger WELL off the trigger.

"Let's head northeast to the foothills, and cause a diversion, while another group circles around from the south and does the main attack"

Sheathe sword. Urge others to support my plan.

Zadii scowls as he looks at the tree's around. Clearly not pleased with his current situation. Shifting against the tree's figuring any cover is better than none as he examines the compound from a far. Content to let his fellow Merc's discuss and argue about a plan for now. "Well...this could certainly be going better.."

Examine the compound from afar using my scope. Not shooting or firing, just taking a look and tryig to discern any possible patterns among the guards if any.

crouch run for cover in the foothills

Clearly running multiple missions at the same time is a terrible idea.  The epic battle to see which team can cock it up worse has escalated again.

And Larry kinda gets blueballed in all this; just left with a raging bone spear and no where to put it.

"If I can get into a good position, I can take out the men in the guard towers, if there are any. Where's the best place for me at this point, from where you are?"

"Try moving a bit south--different angle for different recon, and there's less of a chance of us both getting killed if they see you."

"Splitting up may be a good idea. I'm going south, around the lake. Anybody coming with me? Also, Simon, do you see an entrance that's not the rails?"
Go into the foothills south of the lake, try to stay undetected.

"On it."
Move South, trying to get a good position to actually HIT something from. Preferably a bush or tree. Focus on the Guards in the towers closest to me.

((You know, GwG, I think our characters will make a good team.))
