Boat 1Move northeast to that mortar crater that makes a hole in the barbed wire. Double time!
Name: Jack Worter
Description: Jack was transferred to the 888th after one of his explosives went off a bit too close to him, and he's been a bit funny in the head ever since. The scars line up on his face when he starts grinning at explosions. Likes nothing better to see things explode.

[6] You sprint across the beach, making it all the way to the crater just before the ramp up to the second part of the beach. You dive into the crater and cover your head, hoping not to be shot or bombed before you can make good your next advance. You spit out some sand and cover your head.
(Squad 1)
Run forward. What ya want me to say here.
Name: Faith Layson
Description: A little short for a stormtrooper. She was just a nurse before a complicated series of events placed her in the 888th. She hopes that being the radio operator will let her stay pretty far back from the bullets and such. Really really doesn't want to die please.

Well, you're not dead, but you're also completely freaking unconcious and very injured. You'll regain enough physical to wake up after a bit, but you'll still be damn gimped. Also, you really should update your sheet.
((Egan's posting, Tir. I think the "commander" missing is really not that important, since commander is just a class that gets a single artillery drop, and not an actual leader. Also, seeing as Barak is the furthest ahead, and you're in the rear, I don't think you'll be reaching him. I'm closer, so I'll try.))
Run straight to Barack, grab his body, and throw both of us into a crater. If it isn't possible to get all the way to him this turn, dive into the crater that he was launched from instead.

Heck of a run, Lets see if you make it. [1]
Simon takes a deep breath, then closes his eyes and sprints forward...or what he thinks is forward. In reality he runs far off to the left and finds himself exposed and basically standing right in front of bunker 1.
Let's try that again. Forward! Take cover if I get shot at.

Squad 2
((Thanks a ton for the info, piece c:
Also goodness gracious our Signaler and Commander are both away or not posting! D:))
Ensure I am protected by indirect mortar fire, and reload. Take aim to snipe that Bunker 1, for covering fire!
If I can score a kill, go for it.
Try to not die please.

"I'll cover the advance, save him!"
Name: Joan Macaraeg
Description: Originally enlisted as a marksman from a background of being a crack shot at things, Joan was placed in supportive roles before she was assigned to anything near the front line.

Joan reloads her rifle and then takes another shot at bunker 1. The sequence of events is quite fast. Joan pops up enough to take a shot, lines up her sights and fires as the man on the machine gun fires back. She sees the small hole appear in his chest and the blood splatter against the bunker wall even as a bullet catches her in the shoulder and spins her backwards into the hole. [-2 life]
Boat 3"Haha! Wah-hah-hah-HAH!!!!!" For a moment, Bob was consumed with the feeling of power that came from this beautiful gun. And then he ran out of ammo. "Damn it!!!"
Bob reloads his BAR with another magazine, and charges forward to the hedgehog behind which Simon is sheltering.
Name: Robert McKinley
Description: McKinley was about ten years old when WWI ended, and his brother returned with innumerable stories of gore and glory. Robert desired to fight for his country in the same way. There was, however, no immediate war in which he could partake. He considered himself to be one of the few to hate the Roaring Twenties. They were a time when the people wallowed in extravagance and purposely forgot the horrors, but also the sacrifices and heroism of the great war. And then came the depression. He found himself liking the depression, though of course, he didn't admit that. Mainly because it seemed like fitting retribution for the excess of the previous years. it might have also had to do with the fact that he managed to retain his job and keep up a standard of living. In any case, 1939 was a year almost of rejoicing, and after he had settled his affairs, he signed up for the battle which he had lusted for.
He's a tall, blondish man who fancies himself to have a certain rakish look. His eyes are deep set under a heavy brow, but full of disturbing light. Call him Bob.

[4]
You shoulder the recoilless rifle and line up the shot on the first bunker. You place the crosshairs on the opening slit and fire. The round screams in right through the slit and detonates somewhere inside. The sound is strangely muffled and distorted but the bunker's open face leaks smoke and fire. There's a damn good chance that either everyone in there is dead, or very near to it.
CHAAAAAAAARRRRGGGGEEEE into that hole that the mortar created in the barbed wire and blow up the other piece of barbed wire that's blocking the passage with an impact grenade.
Name: Crazy Ivan, Explosive Assassin

3 Thompson magazines
2 Land mines strapped to explosive charges, to be used as improvised impact grenades (Risk 7 (mine) + Risk 10 (explosive charge))
[1-1] You pull out an impact grenade as you call them and sprint out of behind the hedgehog. You make it about 10 feet before you trip. [1-1!] You face plant, landing directly on top of your own grenade. [6][1] The mine, because of the way it is angled, pointed down at the ground, hurts you only slightly as it detonates. The satchel charge however, deals a straight -9 life to you and activates the other impact grenade you're carrying. After that you and your gear are reduced to a fine red and gray mist.
(Squad 3)
"I FEEL ALIVE!" Said Zack to Joe after he healed his ankle. "NOW IT'S TIME TO KILL THOSE BASTARDS! HAHAHAHA!" Screamed and laughed Zack before he ran to the hedgehog in the front of him.
RUN TO THE FARTHEST HEDGEHOD!
IF I SEE SOME NAZI SCUM, FIRE AT WILL!
Name: Zack Krokowicz
Description: An American-Polish man in his mid 20s. Pale skin, brown eyes, black hair, muscular body and tall. Willingly accepted his draft to U.S military due to his burning desire to kill other people, and you need no excuses on the battlefield to kill people. Zack has been eventually sent to 888th Brigade after an incident where he killed captured German officer without any reason.

((I remove my first aid kit from inventory since I used it up, right?))
Squad 3
Stay where I am, low and in cover, try and recuperate.
Name: Joe Nix
Description: A tall, almost ape-like man with a completely shaved head, Nix has always been something of an oddball. Always cheerful when with company he finds pleasant, when its time to get serious, it's as if a monster enters his visage, and he develops a rather disturbing tunnel vision when it comes to finishing the mission.

You sit with your back against the hedgehog and try to catch your breath. You think if you have maybe just a few more minutes here, you might be able to recover a bit.
There's no machinegun fire this turn, though two bunkers still remain technically active. Up on the ridge, past the bunkers and over where the trenches are, on the right side, everyone can hear gunfire. Faith's radio announces that the commander has a message.
Two mortar rounds come in. One misses everyone entirely, the other lands dead on Joe Nix and Faith. Faith is sprayed down with shrapnel and slumps over dead, while Joe is thrown clear over the hedgehog and knocked unconcious. [-3 life, -6 physical]
