Unopenable door can't be open, take new dead noise weapon in to noise pen.

"KiLLINg PLeopoiaejse I kailLl Yu hA."
Enter ziggurat, charge up to floor 3 while smearing gum all over my face.
Also, I don't want to be an asshat, but would providing suppressing fire and saving my fellow grunts be CP worthy?
If you are consistent with it, sure. You can have the CP: Support. That will go toward unlocking some auxiliary classes, I guess.
(2)You run up to the third floor and drop your artificial gum flavored chewing resin on the floor.
(5) and join the two grunts hiding behind the wall.
Platoon:3

CP: "
Charge Limping Lurch of the Light Brigade."
The second number is the counter, the third is the grunt command designation.
CP:"Charge Limping Lurch of the Light Brigade."
Be addressed. Be inspired. Remember Grunt 002 fondly.
You two spawn as low level shock troops. You get one armor level each, with spikes which will help in melee combat and prevent unwanted hugs and compliments. HC is still a slightly better version than the grunt. (4)(5) you inspire and he is inspired. heck, you each get a +1 on your next attack action.

Grumble to myself, head towards base. Whisper rude remark about seargent under breath.
(6) you grumble like an infantryman being sent to certain death by an asshole he hates and for a cause he knows nothing about. The Sergeant appears unimpressed.
You arrive at the ziggurat and stand in the open field yelling curses at the swamp. and the swamp things crawling up out of the ground.
(2) one of the monsters decides that the noisy grouch should just shut the fuck up and die already, and proceeds to attempt to make that happen. It tears one of your legs off and starts beating you with it.

With that taken care of, take a moment to rip one of that thing's teeth out with... well, I'm sure there's something I can use in the backpack. Then shoot up the door.
You get the tooth, no problem. (3) you put some holes in the door near where you assume a latch might be. Did it work?

So, after this battle wraps up, I am going to take a little time to get this game organized. I will work my way through the thread, recording all the CPs, equipment, and classes, as well as some miscellaneous stuff. I'll make a second OP, and link it in the first OP. It will be the same game, but somewhat overhauled so it's slightly more comprehensible and so that you guys can get a clearer sense of progression, which I think is lacking at this point. This process will likely take a week or two. While I am doing that, fel free to use the thread for rp amongst yourselves, or asking questions or making comments. I'll probably reply.
And thanks for joining me on these adventures!
