((The problem is that if, you, as a player, wrote/rolled up stuff for the other players, it would be... biased. You would have information the other players would not have. Plus other issues. Now excuse me, I'm going to try to hit at least two more turn segments.))

1 Agent and 10 grunts scope out this toxic waste dump.  What's going on here?  Is there profit to be made here, or a threat to contain?

Continue to carry wallet on person.  Check it once a day.

1 Agent and 5 grunts keep working with Steve.

1 Researcher and 5 grunts continue to work with the portal, to see if they can make any use of it.  Kinda doubt it, but who knows?

"Agents, well done on capturing the anomaly. I'll start working on getting a containment chamber for it. In the meantime, half of you need to guard it, and the other half need to hunt more anomalies. each group gets a half team of grunts to assist.

Researcher, I want as in-depth a study of the SCP as you can get in this environment. getting a working lab is our second priority after getting proper containment.You may have up to a full team of grunts to assist in your work, and while destroying it is not recommended.. feel free to do some damage to it if need be.
The rest of you: start making a trapdoor and a second floor in whatever we have that passes for a lounge in the bunker. I'll be trying to come up with some blueprints for a general containment chamber to go down in it.

"For fuck's sake." I call my army of grunts and order them to handle the situation. After they go in, I shall march in too, stomp the crotch of any traitorous or dead agent and order the grunts to clean the mess.

Then I rehire 10 agents for $5000. And repeat my previous action.

"Take the fight to them. Lethal force, and work together."

Tell the grunts to get the jump on the hit squad. Use the bunker to their advantage - lock doors, kill lights, etc.

Once we get to Galveston, set up in the apartment and start hunting leads.

Let the government guys kill themselves over the nuclear power plant. Besides, we dont yet have the resources available to us to contain it. Have the agents and grunts go out searching again.

"Sigh... Agents, look for ve leads. Okay, everybody else: help me open vis crate!"

(2) Your Agents are spending their time shivering. Not searching.

(6+2=8) You walk up to the crate, followed by your Grunts and Researcher- then you tap it with your index finger. The crate just splinters to pieces. There's nothing left of it. Except a heap of wood chips and...

(luck: 1) a strange beeping cube... Russian military tech. It's a tracking device, if you're correct. Oh.

(You have acquired: a problematic Russian military tracking device likely locating your position for the Russian military. They can probably spare the time away from Turkey to take you down.)

(1+2(no longer flaming much)=3) The bunker doesn't change much.

"Okay boys. 1 Agent, 10 Grunts... go after that waste dump playground."

"another Agent, plus 5 Grunts: Steve still needs help."

"And that leaves 1 Researcher and 5 Grunts, who are going to now work with the portal. Dismissed."

(3) Your Agent and 10 Grunts haven't reported in yet- this might be a prolonged investigation(will roll again(with +1) for that next turn, 1 Agent plus 10 Grunts busy for that time)

(3) As it turned out, the Agent and 5 Grunts assigned to Steve were drinking nice coffee with him. At least they're not trying to kill him.

(3) And your minions assigned to the portal- just examine it, confirming its measurements. Your Researcher, on the other hand, pointed out the-

"The rest of you: start making a trapdoor and a second floor in whatever we have that passes for a lounge in the bunker. I'll be trying to come up with some blueprints for a general containment chamber to go down in it."

And with that, you get started with your designing. (2+1=3) You soon realize that that's not your job. You need to hire an engineer or something. No wonder your head hurts. At least you have a design document for said engineer...(gain +1 to design general containment room, rerolls a 1 if rolled, once.)

(guard(no roll)) ((I'm not that harsh of a GM)) Your guards seem to be marching. In tune. Around the SCP's temporary containment shack. Huh.

(3) The next day, your seekers return with a lead. Good. (Gain a +1 lead)

(3) Your Researcher... and the Grunts assigned to him... isn't working. Instead, he's just joined in the marching band.

(2) You barely manage to stop your remaining Grunts from boring a hole in your office. (guess what would have happened on a 1...)

After the bloodbath, you express your frustration with your incompetent minions by stomping the crotches of the dead gunmen(and your own dead minions).

With a cash infusion, a new squad of 10 Agents arrive in your bunker. (-5000$, gain 10 Agents)

A lot of orders are promptly given.

(5) The researcher asked to design a room to hold a word does his best. In the end, he comes up with... a book. He just doesn't know enough about the phenomenon to know if it can be captured. (it may be a 5, but it's not enough to bend physics- you have to get a 6 for that)

(5) The researcher asked to design a room to hold a flaming death car has better prospects. The end result is incredible. (Gain design for general hostile entity containment room, cost 4000$, designed to keep powerful hostile entities within)

(5) The Agents asked to capture a word have better prospects as well. Or at least luck, courtesy of their discovery of a somewhat old woman named Elfa S. Loewes. Currently taking a tour in Cairo, she's ripe for the capture, if it's her who's causing this phenomenon...

(5) The Agents asked to secure the flaming death car set a trap. Of a very special sort. The blasted thing is attracted with one of the Agents driving a car, then is snagged with a bunch of heavy-duty chains. (Car(3)) It struggles, but fails to do more than crack the chains.

There is the slight problem of how to get the now subdued death-car to your bunker without alerting the civilians who are scheduled to return to the driving tunnel in a few days... it's not moving on its own as your will dictates, after all.

(2) The two Agents you asked to do the near impossible(supervise Grunts) have returned with Chinese takeout. Wait, if they were getting takeout...

(3) The bunker can't really be camouflaged with either more work or more Grunts. (you divided the work into 3)

(6) (5) Bloodshed. You're pretty sure one of your Grunts entered a strange mood or such, if this was Dwarf Fortress... but in any case, you now have one fewer Grunt and one more book made from human flesh and bone.

(5) A lot of money is spent, and now you have a strong hostile entity containment room. (gain a hostile entity containment room)

(no roll) 2000$ is promptly spent, 20 Grunts have arrived.

((I think random.org might have broken, I might have to break out the dice... what the heck what the heck what just happened?))

(2) You get a headache.

And with that, after a few hours of running around in terror, hunted by the hit squad- your Grunts mobilize. (Prep(2)) And they completely ignore your tactical suggestions beyond "get the jump on the hit squad." (Grunts(6+2(ambush)=8) vs. Hit Squad(6)) Currently, the hit squad numbers a nice 13 enemy Agents. No, make that 12. The Grunts, judging by what you're hearing, slammed one against the wall and... did something else. Dead. (Hit Squad(4) vs. Grunts(4)) Gunshots resound, but no cries of pain follow. As it turns out, guns aren't the best things to use in melee combat.

(Grunts(5) vs. Hit Squad(5)) More gunshots sound, and more whooshes of clubs swinging sound, but no cries of pain. (Hit Squad(1) vs. Grunts(3)) Then there is a period of silence. (Grunts(4) vs. Hit Squad(4)) Then more smacking and stuffs... (Hit Squad(5) vs. Grunts(1)) Then more dakka, and cries of pain. (-6 Grunts) (morale(4)) One of the remaining 4 Grunts runs away... the other 3 attack, beyond all reason. (Grunts(4) vs. Hit Squad(2)) They seem to kill one enemy Agent before more shooting follows. (Hit Squad(3) vs. Grunts(2)) The Hit Squad takes their time, shooting down one of the remaining 3- now two- fighting Grunts. These guys are professionals. (Grunts(6) vs. Hit Squad(2)) Then there are more cries of pain, from the Hit Squad. (-1 Agent) (at this point, 2 vs. 11, it's unreasonable to physics to have 2 take out more than 1 or 2 at a time) (Hit Squad(4) vs. Grunts(1)) And with that, the remaining fighting Grunts are shot down.

Grunt Stupidity(6) "Sir. I'm done. There are natives on this island, right? Natives that could help me fight?" (... dangit I wanted a 1, for the surrender and telling your location) "What-" The phone cuts off. (Next week: natives versus Hit Squad of now 10 Agents)

...

And a day or two later, you've arrived in Galveston- and one of your two Agents promptly uses his smartphone, noticing something which he shoves into your face. As it turns out, there was recently a toxic waste dump at a playground handled by a previously unknown government contractor. Interesting news.

(2) Your Agents are feeling tired out by the trip, though, and don't actually do any searching.

"Vell, vis looks expensive. You two, go and try to sell it!"  2 grunts head southwest with the strange device and wood chips. Try to sell the device to people that either wouldn't recognize it, or fail to care. If you go so far as to enter Kazakhstan, just dump it into the nearest river. Agents do more lead searching. Researcher tries to find a way to get rid of the smoke.
