...I think I'll have to rely on the various history nerds to pick a plane from THAT list. :P
What skill do I use to shoot the gun on a fighter plane?

Ahem, I misspoke. I meant to ask if any of these planes had really big shotguns/scatterguns attached.

Alright then, Everyone level up and I'll get to work on this next mission.  As a Christmas present I'm gonna Let you guys choose the mission we go on. There's a strawpoll here
http://www.strawpoll.me/14777568

I've allowed multiple answers so choose anything that looks fun to you. One with the most votes will be the one we do.
I, um, I think some more details would help your choices there Piece :P I'm unsure if the first one, for example, would be a semantical takedown, or you meant 'aerial' takedown (meaning we'll...be in planes)? Because that may imply either infiltration and sabotage while also others riding in planes, or we get to handle heavy machinery with our weapon stats applying to them (like my huge suspicion that Sniper Rifle = applicable for MG/AA Emplacements [perhaps a broader category of 'best weapon skill'?])

Also seems the same for "Joining British Bombers" there, because it sounds like we're flying in fighter support OR we're actually crewing the bombers! ._. Could be something like 'emphasis on how'.
Post what ya did and I'll give ya GLORY so you can level up. I'm gonna give everyone 50 basic GLORY because you guys managed to not get killed and Kept Bone from dying. Any good specific actions will get the individual character more.
My personality stops me from thinking about GLORY :v

I um, actually all this goes to Bob/Strider03, because he thought about checking the radio area IC. I just helped man a MG emplacement, talk a lot to other people, carry Bone and his bodyguard and resuscitated them, find and aid 4 crewmen from the boiler room, etc. Strider03/Bob, and the other people in my team are the ones who did more of the work actually. ._. Although we split up before finding the comms room, people like syvarris/Simon Smith, Lupanian/Carolina, Twinwolf/Winston, Tavik Toth/Spencer, and other folks did good work too--guarding is usually an understated but important thing. CrocandBearLover/Hans, for example, was one of the first into the boiler room and stuff.

If people can help add to, or mention other things about other people (or myself if you'd like), that'd help a lot.

Ed exploded some Nazis. That's about all the useful he was this mission, really.
50. Because you completely anti-climaxed that conflict, didn't ya?
What probably happens when you blow up most of the big bosses the GM has been planning ever since day 1. :P

Simon ardently ignored the fact that anything weird was happening, playing cards and getting drunk instead.  Once he was drunk enough to follow along, he mostly just supplied other people with weapons and supplies (including a bunch of chains and knives for Oz to make traps with).  And then he fell asleep in a corner, before Alice dragged him to bed.

All in all, a pretty glorious night, GLORY or no GLORY.  Though I'm really hoping for 10 glory because that'd bump to juuust enough for a de lisle.

The following was imagined by Charlie to have been accomplished by him:
- A fair bit of sensing occurred near the beginning, though that wasn't productively shared with anyone (first up the stairs, and first to see the corpse off the side; saw numerous evidences of stuff)
- A boiler room was haphazardly investigated (a failure to persevere until hailstones were dug).
- An intra-storm vision check targeting the bridge was failed.
- Bodies were looted.
- A foot was the victim of accidental self-mutilation.
- An ambiguously worded sermon was preached.

Huh, the winning selection got 47 votes...questionable. But it was winning before hand so we'll go with that.  Sneaky Peaky it is.

I pointed out to ER that I want starwars to go Full WWII in space and he asked me why this isn't WWII in space.

I have no good answer, but many new desires.

Something tells me that I might want to ask Toady to change my username to something that makes sense with my IRC nick, because people from IRC tend to use that name when talking about me. :P

It was the only one that was first impressionably an infantry mission--something most of us have skills in, AND even Alice, as she can pilot and operate. :/

Not sure who else hasn't posted, who did anything of note.
