Arthur moved out.
He saw it.
 
Thin, stubby limbs and a gaunt body, a bulbous head studded with a pair of pitiless, oversized eyes gave it the perverse notion of a children. Gleaming contraptions of silver metal and sickly glowing green were strapped onto it's arm.

The creature stared at the operative, and he stared back, and he saw only hate in that gaze.
 
It chittered something and scuttled into the night as another one emerged, cradling the device on its arm. The object been to quietly whine an ominous tone as it scrambled for cover.

//Jane's move hasn't been counted.

I tried to play chess but two of my opponents were playing competitive checkers as a third person walked in with Game of Thrones in hand confused cause they thought this was the book club.

As Crazy moved up, he saw three more shapes in the gloom. Two were the grey, stubby aliens they'd just encountered. They too chittered at the human, their strange weapons armed and gleaming with deadly promise.
 
The third was a heavy box on slender legs, a incandescent yellow glow leaking from under the rotating top. Motes of golden light seemed to dance around the canister.

Okay, I ain't shooting the Sectoid. The others will flank me. Arthur's moving to O7.

Of course, Twin is neither man nor woman but an unholy eldritch abomination like every other Bay12er. The difference is they hide it better.

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

((Damn it. Umm... scapheap, could you change your action, maybe? I was gonna have Andrea:))

Move to P14, then throw a Flashbang Grenade to J16 (catching Sectoid B in its radius).

If not, Andrea will dash-move all the way to P19.

The flashbang disorients the sectoid, impairing his senses.

Quote from: Flashbang
Sectoid B is disoriented!

ALIEN ACTIVITY

The device on the alien's arm suddenly emitted a sharp whine, painful to hear. A gout of searing green plasma erupted, missing Arthur by inches. His skin prickled, instantly reddening to sunburn.
 
"Hammer One, this is Command! What was that? Have you encountered hostiles, over?"
 
Further back, ethereal purple energy came into existence around the head of a sectoid, snaking forward to bolster the last alien - it stood a little taller and straighter, it's eyes glowing a ghostly. The enhanced alien moved forward and readied to fire on anything that moved.

Quote from: Sectoid A shoots at Arthur Pierce
Hit: 60-45=15. Roll: 16. Miss!

Sectoid C is on overwatch!

"Affirmative command, hostiles sighted. There's 3 of them, and they have strange green weaponry. One of them almost got Arthur. They appear to be guarding something as well."
