Jump after the cowboy and join the rodeo. Tame the eel through Percussive Maintenance
You're thinking of "get a hold of yourself, man!" Percussive maintenance only works on machines.
(5) Well, you leap onto the eel behind the other nutcase and proceed to beat the4 ever lovin' fuck out of it. It's had enough and settles into the swamp so that you two are riding about waist deep. It seems tired or something. You two are now getting shot at by your own team, so you got that going for you too.

Get on some relatively dry dirt.Take some shots at that eel while I still can.
(6) You climb out of the swamp onto a strip of "not quite mud." The moss here is kinda comfy, actually. Soft and springy. Smells nice, if you can get past the overwhelming odor of death and decay all around you. Eh, one gets used to that kind of thing. You take a moment to just appreciate nature. Nature is kinda like a Grunt, isn't it? Nasty, brutish, stupid, but with a certain elegant charm all it's own and a deeps seated will to kill, even if it means dying in the process. Gosh, that's profound. Some egghead must have been dicking aruond in your revitalization chamber or something. You should probably report all those serious thoughts to someone.

Kill the thing. With gunfire. Then keep screaming for medic.
mostly since friendly deaths count on the wrong side of the K:D ratio. Bureaucrats. Figures.
(3) your shots plop into the swamp, fizzling and spraying your teammates with hot water and steam. They yell at you to knock it off.
Oh, almost forgot your seizure (6) nope.
Brick 1 death rollsWell, MG003 receives a serious wound from friendly fire. Otherwise, the swamp thing is mostly docile at the moment, so I'll roll one time to see if BAd Stuff happens in general.
(5) Situation normal - all fucked up. Time to move on to the target, yo.

Well, everything that wants to hurt you is currently behind a high voltage electric fence. Good thing you've got that insulated armor on.
(2) you run up and start to climb said fence, but fall on your ass.

Artillery: Fires ballistic and guided long-range, high angle attacks. standard ballistic ammo is unlimited. Carries 5 large ballistic units, for attack against buildings and transport, and 3 guided missiles, for long range, accurate shots. Generally will require a spotter on location, or otherwise able to transmit firing coordinates.
(Additional note to self: As cyborg artillery, I can fire 2 grenades per turn)
Cyborg: A standard laser is built into each arm, but must be deployed to activate, and cannot be deployed while the launchers are active.
You have 2 layers of armor, the ability to lift about 2 tons, or carry about 1 ton, and are capable of running about 20 mph, and leaping about fifty feet horizontally or twenty vertically. You have integrated communications equipment in your head, and multiple wavelength eyes - just select normal, infrared, UV, or lowlight.
"So how about you don't die, you do... something, with that prisoner of yours, and I just keep us all from dying?"
Deploy both laser arms and try to cock them menacingly. Fire at any Other Guys™ I see.
"Alternatively, I could try and get a better vantage point to see what's happening, if you want. Corporal?
