Railcars and the mine still need breaking

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.

Ah. I misread the green as "Objective Complete."

Help the exploders. The demolition men. Whatever.

Enter the strange building, and search for explosives.

Load as many explosives as I can fit into the nearest cart and pocket a detonator then push it towards the mine, once close attach the detonator and set it to go off in 15 seconds then push it off as hard as I can into the mine.

seek high explosoves, if found or informed of their location place them in such a way as to level the entire railyard using as few as possible, place the remainder in the grenade cart and begin wiring them to the detonators

Walking into the building, you get to work. Dragging out piles and piles of explosives and detonators, Stark, Simon, Tory, and Able get to work laying explosives throughout the railyard, placing a block of mining explosive under a car every so often, setting detonators as you go until it looks like you have the whole railyard covered.

Meanwhile, Elron, Jared, and Janus start piling explosives into the car with the grenades in it, arming each block. Finally, the cart piled high with explosives, the three find an undamaged engine and hook it to the front. As it approaches the front of the mine, the three of you jump out of the car, the throttle jammed down with a spare block of explosive. As if enters the mine, you scatter towards the camp, sprinting as Jared pushes the button just as the car disappears into the mine.

A huge blast shakes the entire mountain, easily half the stockpile going off almost all at once. The shock from the blast reaches you as you run, sending you stumbling to the ground. As you pick yourselves up, you watch massive chunks of the mountain collapse in landslides, small at first but quickly escalating into massive cascades of rock and dirt tumbling down the mountainside. Another minute or two of sprinting brings you back to the camp, the thunder of the landslides behind you as you walk to the hole in the fence on the North side of the fence, where the others are waiting. Meeting up with them as they look on at the devastation at the mountain, the team gets together and gets moving.

A minute of walking later, you turn back to look at the camp as Simon activates the detonator and a good quarter of the mining camp dissapears in a gigantic blast, chunks of railcars and buildings flying into the air against a backdrop of fire and debris. The blast wave rattles you as it passes by and the smoke clears just enough for you to get an idea what the situation looks like.

The entire quarter of the camp is one giant crater, the blasted earth lit by scattered fires in place of the lights that had been there just half a minute ago. The rest of the camp is in better shape, but was heavily damaged by the blast wave, with the ore and order processing buildings tumbled-down ruins along with the barracks. Your work here is done.

The shuttle is waiting at the drop point for you, Zadii already loaded. "Nice job, boys," the pilot remarks as you board and strap in before closing the bay doors and blasting off into the night.

Mission Complete.

((And now the mission is complete. Thank you all for playing. Before I start up the next mission, I'd like to know if there's anything that would make this a more fun RTD, and any balance changes. Next mission is sans armor.))

Well, maybe you can put in some secondary objectives. That will get us more tokens or whatever to spend in a shop or something after the mission is over. Things like, 'Rescue the hostage without them getting damaged', or 'Complete an objective without using your primary'. Something to challenge us further. Or, to put it more accurately, challenge our characters further.

Yeah, heavy armor... -_-

But yeah, I'll look into that.

I like the idea of secondary missions. This is still one of my top 5 RTDs to play.

I'm going to say you get 2 stat points. Also, everyone is allowed to change their loadouts. Please note that next mission will be more stealthy than this one, if all goes well for you.

I'm not quite sure on the specifics, but I can tell you right now that it's going to involve sneaking around and infiltrating buildings.
