You time is right enough to finish the third tome. You open it and continue reading, but just in five minutes you hear hevy, metal-clinging steps. They are clearly not Jurand's, you hear a pale voice of Jurand, then a roaring voice that sounds like if a lot of men were speaking on the edge of their voices simultaneously. You cannot define neither what they say, nor even the language they speak.

WhitusOpus
You throw your gaze over the scope and enjoy the panic for a moment. What a marvellous piece of chaos you've just done. Quite a rare sight.
You get back to the streets and proceed back to the guild uing mostly non-crowded streets and lanes. Though there are still some men here, you feel something with your back. someone is watching you. Maybe following you, looks at you through the crosshairs. Maybe it is just your wet coat. Something's wrong, that's what you can say for sure. As you look at Henrik with a question in your gaze, he answers you with the gaze which holds positive answer. He feels that, too.

Alexandria
Concentrating, you order commander - a sturdy man in coat behind a few lines of soldiers - to order to lay down weapons and surrender. [3] He stops giving any orders because of a momentary distraction aтв stands with an astonished look.
Shootin' part. Just understood that I forgot your personal +1 for Gunslinger (check your charlist in OP). Let's mind that two more dead by your shots.
You're still operating in three groups.
Team Center
[initiative roll - 3 vs 2]
[6+1] This shot pierces two men in a row. How did you do that?
[5+1] Head explodified.
[2]
[1]
[6] Ribcage? No, more like a hole, that's what that guy has.
[1]

They respong with gunfire. You spot a squad with anti-panzer rifle. Oh shit.
1 x [1-2]
2 x [2-2]
3 x [5-2] You're suppressed by fire and caused to retreat back and use men's barricades as cover
1 x [6-2] you get a minor injury - a bullet comes under one of your scales. That is painful. Very painful. You occasionally drop one of your guns while retreating.
[anti-panzer shot - 5-2+2] One of your girls falls dead with a bloody mess instead of her upper body.


Team Right Flank
[initiative roll - 6 vs 5] They advance and shoot.
[4] Glanced - helmet saved his life. His is unconsious, however.
[1]
[5] Dead. Neck wound. Lots o'blood.
[3]

Respond (riflemen)
[6-2]
[4-2]
[4-2]
[6-2]
You girls roar of pain caused by torn scales. Yes, some were occasionally orn by those shots.

Team Left Flank
[initiative roll - 2 vs 1] Here advace continues as well
[1]
[2]
2 x [3]
Not efficient in matter of bodycount, however

Respond
[5-2]
[4-2]
[4-2]
[2-2]
They are not too god, either.

Caerwyn
You deaclare your find aloud. You argue about half an hour, for a closer look reveals that the lever is intended to be turned by right hand, until Zigfried, who held his words at all times, just came closer, put the right hand inside it and turns the lever inside.
Two events happen at once - Zigfried screams and pushes his hand back, and when he does... his hand is covered with a massive angular gauntlet. At the same time, huge gates open with thunderlike roar of rusty hinges.

((Rolepgeek, understood))

"Shiza, someone's following us. Henrik, you know what to do."

continue on down this path. For a while. Then, switch through a series of side streets and alleys, then go into a dark alcove, and draw my knife. Set the ambush with Henrik, and wait for the... Person... Following us.

[updates frequency roll - 1] Behold, from now on you'll have to train your patiece a lot.
[Timestamp by random.org: 2014-01-23 21:07:44 UTC Not convincing, I know]

You walk through the streets, lanes and backyards of the city until you find your place for ambushing. Both you and Henrik draw your knives and wait. In a while, four cloaked persons come from both sides of lane aтd carefully approach alcoves. They are unaware your precise position, they justlost track at this lane, knowing you didn't leave it. Actions?

Alexandria
Remember a whole mess of missed shots in previous turn? One of them must have hit the ammo storation box. A chain of explosions BOOMs all ver the camp, making everyone deaf for a moment. Looking out after it, you find out that there are nearly a dozen and a half of men left. Unfortunately, it includes anti-panzer squad (it holds two men, one cares rifle, other cares supplies).
((Please specify - just more dakka-dakka or repeat mind-control attempt?))

Try to regroup in the center. Fire at will in the process aiming for the panzer first.

I will try to find  a fairly secluded place in the library, and wait for the voice to pass. Then try to leave the castle as quietly as possible.

As night falls Corrans ship drifts in towards the cities harbor running silent to avoid detection.

His crew moves quickly and efficiently having been drilled relentlessly during the voyage to prepare for the battles to come, taking up positions on the cannons and guns as the firing slats slide out of the way and the guns are loaded to begin firing they peer into the darkness grimly waiting for the order to fire.

Sneak in towards enemy dock on forward momentum only, run silent to avoid detection.

Have Henrik shoot at them as many times as possible or until he runs out in his clip then charge in with his knife. I engage them with my knife, attempting to cut the first mans throat open. Try to leave one alive for questioning.

Alexandria
[regroup - 2] You hardly able to have an eye-contact with your girls, and your command is suppressed by minor explosions - thosу must ne handgun munitions.
[initiative - 1 vs 6] Your foes were much more organized. They shoot you before you can do anything else, though out of 18 survivers only nine are consious now. Others are still stunned.
3 x [2-2]
1 x [3-2]
1 x [5-2]
2 x [6-2] Two girls have more wounds. One of them yours.
[anti-panzer shot - 3-2+2] It strikes the earth right behind you, throwing dirt all over your squad.

You response, and I mean only you - your girls are still gathering up:

[4+1] But that is all you need. One good shot. The bullet and the anti-panzer-rifle-wielding guy's skull. Made for each other. They finally meet, and that is the happiest reunion you see in your life. He is spitting red fountains of joy. Oh, no, wait... it's blood. He's dead. his rifle fucked up by a glance as well.

UltraValican
You run and look for a safe place. You find a distant hollow alcove and hide yourself there. From here, you hear like the talking persons come in. Than it stops. For a minute, nothing seems to happen. You hear the rustle of pages. Everywhere. Books come from shelves and float... towards th word sourcee, you guess.
You feel one of the books pushing you from behind. It should be lying in the alcove, and now it's master summons it, and you stand between them. How do you deal with that?

Patrick Hunt
[sneaking in - 3+1] Your ship is noticed, but they seem not to mention all the weaponry in the dark and  consider you a lately-arrived trade steamer. So, you're inside the bay, your weapons armed. Some night wanderers even look at your ship with interest.

WhitusOpus
[shootin'em with Mat revolver - [4] +1 for sneak +1 for shotgun round in close distance] He shoots'em all dead, hitting with a grapeshot first and finishing them with regular rounds. Unfortunately for you, no survivors left after such a massacre. Just four corpses.

Close the firing slats and position the ship in the middle of the bay. Have the MG gunners on the top deck scan the port picking out any warships and reporting them to me by class.

Then count up civilian ships and look for any land based defense batteries.

*Sigh* "damnit Henrik, I wanted to interrogate one."
Being slightly irritated by Henrik, I Search them for any indication as to who they are, or why they were following me. Grab their weapons and any valuables, then head to the merc guild for payment. And some answers...

Continue to regroup, shoot whoever has the most dangerous weapon first and work our way down.
