[Radio Controlled]

((I think the rescue should get here next turn, if I didn't miscount/misinterpret.))

"Stand fast soldiers, evac is coming! Just a little more!

Iveso, if the shuttle can't land you'll get to fly the brain up first thing to secure it, but for now I'll hang on to it."

Is there a way we could create a safe LZ for the shuttles to land (aka so loading stuff up goes faster)? Could I perhaps create a permanent forcewall around the (previously) cleared area a meter or two high (cylinder shaped) so that the fungus can't get to us? How many mindpoints would it take more or less? If it's something that should work, do so, then clear away fungus in immediate area with my newly reclaimed namite thrower.

If not a feasible plan, would it be possible to load up everything while the shuttles are hovering a dozen meters (or more, I dunno?) aboveground? What about me and Iveso? Oh, and what are the shuttles that were originally in orbit doing? Can I assume these are also coming down, being guided by Steve/autopilot?


Radio channel to shuttles:

"Gyromitra actual to shuttles, be advised, LZ is still hot. We'll try to clear it now, but if we can't it's gonna be airlifting everything up. Be prepared for either."

"For those who can, I would try freezing the ground to clear an LZ, it worked rather well for me. Made the fungus brittle and easy to break. I believe that they will need some sort visual signal in order to see where we are, anyone have any ideas?"

Begin freezing the fungus ground around us, then proceed to smash it once it is brittle. Don't freeze the ground over the trench or the brain hole, just clear an LZ adjacent to them so I do not freeze my team mates. Only try getting them out of the trench if I am absolutely sure that I will not hurt or kill them.

"AAAAAAAAAawait I'm alive. Excellent. Wait, oh shit.

I'm where the jeep used to be if anyone can hear this and is not dead! I have no way to really get out except for a mindfuck gun and I really don't wanna use that when I'm under it!"

[Nunzillor]

"You have an amp so that makes sense, but Tek is a little paranoid about using his manipulator for non-precision work, so... good luck.  He will focus on freeing the wounded, if he can."

Shovel!  Start digging up the flesh near where I think the guy with all the heads is.  If it can't cut through the flesh at first, precisely sharpen the edge of it first with the manipulator.  If by some miracle this actually works, dump all the sand out of my backpack, then stuff any heads I'm tossed in there.

Be stuck under flesh

"Does anyone still alive have an unsealed suit? Because I have a plan."

If everyone who's alive has an intact suit, start burning the flesh off of them. Otherwise, continue to burninate the countryside to clear a landing zone.

To Miyamoto:
Understood.

Prepare for either landing or airlift, depending on further messages.

"Yeah, I'm down in the trench with a bunch of heads and a shovel! I'd much rather not piss off the flesh too much with this cargo!" Ryan says, transmitting it to both the ground and rescue team.

Huddle, team! We gotta put our heads together on this one! If a hole above us opens up, toss the heads through it, then get through it myself!

[Nunzillor]

"Tek is going to try to create a gap in the flesh near you.  You may want to get ready to get out."

((I'm never sure if my actions are terrible or decent.  Hopefully this won't be largely ineffectual and cause the flesh to lash out.))

[Yoink]

"An LZ so hot it'd melt the ice in your brandy. Lovely."
Jobasio chuckles at his own wit, tapping a foot as he waits for the shuttle to land.
"This should be... interesting."

Keep the rescue team's morale buoyant by cracking jokes about our impending demise. Hey, it runs in the family.
Also ensure my sunglasses are on and my cutlass is sheathed at my side, ready to prune the shit outta this bitch.

Continue lasering the Flesh around me.

Make sure the wench and cable are good to go! Look for a hook or something on the end of the cable.

"Gotcha. I have a pile of heads to huck out first. Get ready to grab them."
Action edited.

[Praefectus Screptum]

Just wait for now and keep guarding the area. If the shuttle doesn't land, take the brain and fly.
