Move into the smoke in the middle, checking inside the stores on the way.  Toss a frag into the third room where the living alien was.

((Thank you!))

Nemesio Barrantes

Advance to the NE lobby entrance, pop a frag grenade in there as well as in the closest store. Take cover in the corner of service hall for the moment.

Aigre!  I looked over the char sheets like you asked!  Don't miss this, please!

Spoiler: checked over char sheets (click to show/hide)

Missing bonuses:
Sean Patrick [MidJag] should be marked as having +2 shooting.
William Muldoon [Dev] should bw marked as having +1 shooting.  If he were playing seriously, he'd spend his levelup to get +2 shooting, but it is Dev...
Lillian Riverson [Twin] should also have +2 shooting, though it likely doesn't matter
Cody Hoffman [Zormod] was changed to have +3 shooting before we started, but is marked as +1.  Explains why he did so poorly.
Lester Remrud [syv] Should also be marked as having +3 shooting, which is very weird because my sheet always had +3 listed.

John Denning [TFTH] isn't necessarily wrong, as it would be possible to have those stats with one levelup and the bonus, but it looks odd.  Why would the levelup have been used to improve a -1, rather than improving shooting from +1 to +2?  Also, he's out of M14 ammo, though I can share some (or he can loot some off my corpse if the raptor kills only me).  He should try and use that M1014 he has.
Edit:  TFTH's sheet has mistakes.  It should be listed as +2 shooting, +1 med.  I think he took +1 initial shooting, +1 med, and leveled up Med.  His mistake was that you need 10 points to go from +1 to +2, Aigre's mistake was not including the +1 shooting bonus.

Items and ammo and such are spotty, but I really don't want to go through the game history to try and correct all that.  I know I should have two less 40mm HEs, 1 less 40mm Smoke, less C4, and the M240 w/ ammo belt that I looted off Zormod.

Edit: Updated TFTH analysis.

((Raising a +1 to a +2 with a single levelup? Don't you need two?))

[syvarris]

((The shooting bonus applies after other bonuses.  You start with an initial of +0, put five points in for +1, then the bonus puts you to +2.  If you add another ten points, you'll have +3, because the bonus applies last.  At least, I'm assuming this is how it works because it is the most logical option and seems to be what Aigre wanted because he said "hidden bonus", which implies it doesn't alter levelup mechanics.))

[Egan_BW]

((That's not raising 1 to 2. Thats raising 0 to 1 with a bonus.
It's just semantics, but I'm disagreeing with yours. ))

[Devastator]

((From the sound of it, Aigre decided not to list the sheets with the hidden +1.))

[syvarris]

((Some sheets *do* have it listed, though.  If he's just decided not to include the bonus (which seems dangerous, because it would be easy to forget), then he can just ignore those statements.  I figure listing them does no harm, and could potentially be very valuable.))

[Devastator]

((Yeah, no problem, just playing devil's advocate.  And not believing in +2s.))

[Twinwolf]

((If it matters, Lillian also has a few skill points left over from the starting level so she can bump her Shooting up another rank next level.))

[TinFoilTopHat]

(( oh no did I fuck up my sheet again rip))

[Aigre Excalibur]

Sean Patrick
"Clever girl."

Draw my M1911, close with the raptor until I am positive I have a clean shot, then fire towards it's center of mass.

Linton Rayner
"God damn it... hang in there!"

Try to move closer until I can get a clean shot, then fire at the raptor in short controlled bursts. Not hitting my teammates is priority number one, however.

Lester
"GAH WHAT THE FF--SHOOTSHOOT!"

I'm unsure how melee works in this.  Does disengaging require a melee roll?  If not, try to disengage and draw my shotgun to shoot the raptor.  If so, curl up small and try to protect my vitals.

Lester struggles against the raptor on top of him, curling into a little ball to prevent those claws from gaining purchase on anything important.

Linton Rayner blasts away with his M4, the raptor evades by hiding behind Lester. Its claws rake across Lester and cuts him in places not covered by armor plates. Linton manages not to hit Lester.

Then Sean Patrick runs up to the raptor, gets it into snuggle range, plunges the barrel of his gun straight into the dino's chest, and gives it lead poisoning. It flails about and slashes at everyone in its death throes. Sean and Lester receive more lacerations on their arms, back and legs.

You all sense a whole bunch of aliens moving up in the south-east lobby.

Clive Muldoon

Move into the smoke in the middle, checking inside the stores on the way.  Toss a frag into the third room where the living alien was.

You move into the smoke in the middle... that's when you see at least 8 of them. You hit the deck as a volley of projectiles sweep over your head. The aliens have moved the civilian bodies about to build a corpse-barricade around their ship. You see them picking out one or two pretty girls from the remaining prisoners, escorting them into the ship and executing the rest to add to the wall. A hedge of carbines jut out in every direction from the barricade.

((Thank you!))

Nemesio Barrantes

Advance to the NE lobby entrance, pop a frag grenade in there as well as in the closest store. Take cover in the corner of service hall for the moment.

You run up to the NE lobby, but succeed in an intuition roll, so you don't waste any grenades on non-existent targets.


Casualties:
Raptor - good night, sweet prince!
Lester, Sean - lacerations all over, some deep ones too. Probably not fatal. Probably.

Ayys in red, ERRANT in green. Corpse Barricade in brown.

I'm in North-East lobby. Looks deserted. Might be able to flank those barricades from here.

((I assume that the tactical map is available on the helmet display?.. ))

[Devastator]

Clive Muldoon.

"Sounds good.  Throwing flash now."

Get behind the passenger lift.  Throw a flashbang towards the barricade, as hard as I can.

((Yub, you can see anything your team sees.))
