[Maegil]

We're not supposed to shoot the section leader, so what are the permissible targets in sight?

[wer6]

Looking at the target lock computer.

Casually glancing down at your target lock computer, you note three very interesting possible targets.

The first of which is a fellow human hospitaller ship that is within range and the firing arc of your rail gun. the second is a large boarding craft heading rather close to your ship, and the third ship is the heavy enemy warship, filled with various insurgents, unshackled AI's, and hostile Xenos fit for only being put down, and is your recommended target.

[S34N1C]

I feel like the second target is the biggest concern.

Fire upon it.

Yeah that one is a bigger concern. +1

[The Froggy Ninja]

I feel like the second target is the biggest concern.

[Prophet]

+1 to second target.

Shooting and shooting.

Due to the miracle of railguns, you don't have to do nearly as tense of a reload then before, the autoloaders did all the work for you and you just have to replace the one ball bearing that went into the target. And then you slam the big red button and fire the big angry railgun. Come to think of it, you briefly wonder why you are here before you look at your targeting computer and distinctly noted that you only just ripped the front of the boarding ship off, and there seems to be a very angry marine on the boarding ship, sword forward. Like concrete block hitting the ocean, your brain feels the telepathic message of "GET ME CLOSER, I WANT TO HIT THEM WITH MY SWORD." Also, you notice there is a rat on the floor. it looks disturbing.

What do you even do in this situation?

[ShadowHammer]

Decide you don't want to be a railgun operator anymore. Leave railgun station.

[vkiNm]

Load the rat into the railgun and shoot it at the boarders.

[Prophet]

Load the rat into the railgun and shoot it at the boarders.

Rat gun
p
Staring at the rat, and then at the boarding shuttle, you quickly pick up the rat(Biting you in the process, ow!) and tape its behind to the back of a magnetic ball bearing, and then reload the rail un with the rat pellet as the main weapons pellet. slamming the fire button, a rather large amount of gore sprays all over the room, but after cleaning the targeting screen, you notice that there is a singular rat  on the sword marine, and he is twitching and screaming erratically, the marine is also covered in gore. your not quite sure where all the gore came from, unless rat trails contain extremely large amounts of matter.

The shuttle is going to collide next turn, and it is going to land near you. you wont be able to load another shot in time.

[Maegil]

"BANZAI!"
Board them when they hit us!
"¡NO PASARÁN!"
While he's struggling with the rat, punch the marine and take the sword from him, and shoot hit him with the sword.
"HAKKAA PÄÄLLE!"
Hack down anyone coming behind him, kill them all dead.
