If I'm still conscious by some miracle then use Pimp Bracelet to fly into trench and die there.
This severed torso suddenly, and inexplicably, no doubt due to an absurdly good roll, summons a metal rod out of seemingly nowhere and gets pogo-sticked back over toward the group and lands in the bare rock of the trench. Impressive!
((By spinning it is preventing your lasers from heating the same spot or area, spreading the heat across its entire carapace and minimizing their effect. Physical projectiles should be more effective, especially if you shoot at the bottom of the cartwheel as it retreats from us or the top as it approaches. once it has been delimbed, it will be unable to move and - considering past cases around here - probably will explode if it can't use its eyelaser properly.))
I continue my search for the alternate entrance, concerned that the ground may try to eat me or send even more killcreatures after me, but doing my best to cause no harm - claws are retracted, my steps are light as I can manage, and I do not put my limbs into any holes or mouths or whatever. noooo tempting the planet to attack me, ok? It's mean enough already. More than mean enough really. This thing is super-scary.
You skitter, very cautiously, to the north another square, taking care not to cause any more damage then is completely and totally necessary. You're getting down pretty low in elevation, almost to the lowest most part.
"No more lasers! Lars, Gauss cannon or PSL, don't care which! Everyone else, spread out!"
((I didn't use my amp last turn, correct? Some confusion over whether to increase the amp use counter on my wiki page.))
Blade of force, cut off its legs at the top, when they'd be moving forward.
Get away from the jeep, but stay in the trench.
No, you didn't have time.
This time, however, you manage to cleanly sever one of the critter's legs with a force blade. It doesn't seem to slow it down much, but it's a start.
Y. Vetrov - up in the air with Han
((Assuming that holding Han leaves me with at least one free hand))
Namite the thing from distance. Assist Han in his course of action.
Doomblade is quiet right now so lets just have you try and namite it.
You manage to kind of partially hit it with a spray of flame, which doesn't really seem to do much to it.
Brother Lars grunted as he tried to hold himself up. "Brother Hasala... I don't believe I can use the Cannon in this state. Shards it is. Ingram, guide my arm as we serve the Holy Steve! Algis, I beg of your aid!"
Pray to Ingram for aiming assistance. Drop to one "knee" as best I can and fire a 10x burst of PSL shards at it.
Lars holds himself up with one hand and fires with the other, spraying shards into the starfish. They don't embed very deep past the thing's armor, but they get in, and the explosion more then makes up for the less then perfect penetration.
"wasn't expecting that. can someone cut this off my only arm? I'd do it myself but ya only arm. Sorry bout that."Keep watch for enemy's tell allies if I see any. if someone cuts the thing off my arm thanks.
The flesh jerks you down and out of the jeep, swallowing up your entire arm, breaking it in several places as it does.
"AAAAAAHHHH HELP HLEP AHHHHH!!"
And other such cowardly screams.
"As I may have said before KILL IT WITH FIRE AND GUNS"
If ground becomes angsty stab with knife until un-angstafied or move away from angsty earth then use ALL of the ClF3 bullets, if the creature gets close to the gun detonate the magazine
You scoot over to where Billy is being attacked and stab at the attacking flesh. The flesh, in turn, starts to subsume you and drag you into it, much like it is doing to billy.
If I'm still conscious by some miracle then use Pimp Bracelet to fly into trench and die there.
Stabilize him, check heroguy is ok with the soil, if not cut it off of him with knife.
"Are you ok with the soil or do you need help?"
Yeah, you ain't stabilizing the torn in half torso man.
You instead run over and use your combat knife to hack billy's trapped arm straight off. It frees him...probably in more then one sense of the word if he keeps bleeding like he is.
