So, uh, what team are you on, GWG? (because I don't want to get shot into an enemy ship and pokevolve into a fine red mist)

As a swordsman myself, I'm not sure I see the appeal of this plan :S

Since all other nine players have claimed a slot, I guess that makes him an evil red.

Oh wait, I miscounted.  Yeah, he can still pick a side.

We got 4 in each and GWG the fence sitter. Hey GWG, pick a side before I get the american news media to call you a flip flopper and ruin your chances for reelection.

We still need one moooooore.

"Hey steve." You speak into the air.

Indeed. It appears GWG's Pilates Goatnudger is defaulting to red.

Ah well. Feel free to join me in giving ridiculous sports commentator play by plays from up in the sky booth. You can be the world-weary one, I'll be the Drunk one.




Ok, lets gets started. Here are the folders of the ship diagrams for each team. Each crewman is represented as a colored dot; there's a key on the image for who is who. You're all on the main deck right now. I'd recommend getting your shit together quick, since I'm sure the other guys will.

RED
BLUE


And here is the grid for the sky right now:
Sky

I've indicated which direction the front of each ship is pointed and, on red, the difficulty scales for hitting at distances with the side cannons. They can only fire in straight lines away from the side of the ship like that, but the machine guns (using the same difficulty scale) can fire anywhere in that 180 degree range. Both ships are currently at zero speed, sitting dead in the air. What happens now is up to you.

Well, let's say you're going away from Earth on huge spaceship and suddenly shit goes wrong and you have Super Mutants. Social Experiments prepared them for this.

Steven, Blue

Go down the ladder, Move to the second forward mounted machine gun (From left to right) and take aim while yelling.

"Take aim friends, for now we must fight, be prepared to fire!"

"Also someone start piloting this thing forward, ya doyps."

It's time... to d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-horribly murder the differently-coloured guys. Sorry, I have a stutter.

Vowel: grab ammo, load the cannons, starting from the front right and going to the back.
