a jet?

i'm going to do the only thing you can really do with a jet then.

Fly above the beast's maw, shooting all ordinance and the jet itself onto its head, and jump out of it a few seconds before the crash. Attempt to land on the beast, draw my sword and begin a campaign of slashing shit up.

achieve target lock on wyvern, fire everything.

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.

Deploy RPK.

Because trying to stuff Fate/Whatever's engrish and the title of a 17th century book on statecraft into Pokemon syntax tends to make the content incomprehensible.

You were planning to have a 15 year old magical girl kill Witches by drinking them under the table!? It's original, at least.

Players: draco uses his sights on his choppa to see that the wyvern is about four times as large as a main battle tank, with a hard blue hide and wicked looking claws and a powerful tail.

Patrick calls for backup. 20 infantrymen drop from the sky on parachutes carrying AK74's and run over to place themselves under his command.

wolfchild and Cmega fire the mortar from a distance. The shell explodes on the wyvern's head and it turns to face them.

Slowpoke aims the jet at the wyvern and fires everything, then ejects and lets the jet slam into it. The wyvern is enveloped in one massive fireball as the missiles and cannon shells impact, then another as the jet hits and the fuel ignites. When the smoke clears the wyvern is shaking the dust from it's body and roaring at the sky, with a fresh long gash across the top of his head.

Cheesecake fires at the wyvern. His shells explode against his hide, leaving black marks where they strike but doing no real harm. It ignores him.

Pariah needs to get closer to use his bombs so while he makes his approach he fires his rocket pods. They burst across it's skin but do little more than chip the horns on it's back. The wyvern eyes the flying thing with familiar irritation.

TCM deploys his RPK in the snow. Most of the others rush past him.

kj fires his rifle. The bullets bounce off of it's armoured skin. His monster capture training kicks in and he searches for a weak point. His chest and underbelly seem unarmoured, but you'd need to get nearly under or directly in front of him to fire there unless his rears up.

BFEL fires the MG and launches some rockets. They explode on it's chest and back. The Rathalos paws at his chest. That must've hurt him.

scapheap fires an RPG. It blows up on one of his forelegs, causing it to stumble.

Allies: Soldiers rolling out of bed. Officers deciding what to wear.

Enemy: Rathalos swats at Cheesecake and sends him flying. He lands a few dozen yards away. He tastes blood and it's a little hard to breathe. His chest feels wet.

Rathalos spits a fireball at Pariah's choppa. It explodes across the nose and starts melting away the cockpit. The freezing weather suppresses the flames almost instantly and keeps them from causing any real harm to the pilots or damaging the instruments, but another hit will probably kill them. The soldiers in the passenger compartment ask what happened and the sergeant says he wants to open the side hatch.

Rathalos leaps and snaps at Slowpoke. He pulls his legs up and avoids being munched. He tries removing his parachute but the harness release is stuck. The rathalos prepares to jump again.

Notify everyone to try and get the beast to rear up! Then fire at it's belly if possible.

Friendly reminder time!

When you want backup just say: I need infantry! or I need tanks! or I need jets! or I need choppas!

You can also ask for certain kinds of stuff: I need heavy infantry! or I need fast tanks! or I need big fat bomber jets! or I need capture choppas!

That last one is the most important. You can ask for capture-type units. Capture infantry have nets and stun guns and tranq rifles. Vehicles have bigger, cooler versions of those things.

EDIT: Choppas with big fat tranq chainguns are just cool.
