"Uh, sure. Just guard the perimeter and shoot anyone who shoots at us. And don't miss. That's really the important part. Want some coffee?"

[Strider03]

"I'm on board. If you focus on the runners alongside, I can provide support and then run up on the drivers"."

"Makes sense, let's go. Head on up north, a little, then signal with 3 clicks on the clicket when you're ready."

[RETCONNED IGNORE]

Hell yes! I can make a very nasty door trap with 2 cups of coffee, about 8 inches of wire or twine, and a bit of tape.

*eyes the house Alice is in*
Want me to make that a little more secure?

Spoiler: Rifleman Parrish (click to show/hide)

Name:Tobeis ‘Toby’ Parrish, 20

Physical and Mental Description: Brown, almost black hair, exceptionally blue eyes, white skin, and numerous scratches. Wears glasses (which have as yet managed to survive without breaking) although he can see fairly well within about 50 meters.  Pragmatic in combat, doesn't believe in fighting honorably, and very rarely ever stops moving, except to make a shot or pretend to listen to a superior officer. Has an amazing lack of respect for officers over the rank of 1st Lt. (unless they're serving on the front with him.) Prefers to use his bayonet instead of his pistol for close range, because the bayonet doesn't jam. Would rather hide in the mud than take his chances running for a better hiding place. Assigned to the 888th for assaulting a superior officer ("No, he inadvertently ran into my buttstock just before he could suggest a glorious charge towards a fortified position, clumsy sod"), shooting 3 prisoners whilst on a mission behind enemy lines ("What was I supposed to do, it was a behind-enemy-lines mission, and besides, those SS bastards had it coming to them") and failing to maintain a clean and orderly appearance during an award ceremony ("I guess 3rd strikes out, whoops, can't be any worse than have to serve under this idiot guess you'll have to transfer me to a different regiment.") Spends most of his time digging, building, or otherwise creating defensive positions to hide in when things inevitably go to shit. Is the type of guy who would tape 6 short-fused frag grenades to the inside of a blast door on the off chance that the enemy manages to open it.

"Wouldn't say that I'd mind. Just tell me where the traps are, please."

[Redjive_Industries]

[RETCONNED IGNORE]

*Shows her a hastily drawn map with the coffee trap placed on an invitingly half-open door, and a few noise traps in various areas that can't be seen from the 10 partially dug foxholes around the house.*
"I'm also going to put sandbags or dead bodies or whatever I can find that can block bullets at the base of each of the windows, so we can use them as hard cover if necessary."

Spoiler: fortifications (click to show/hide)

Because otherwise some Kraut could just spray through the wood around the window. The coffee trap is basically just something to burn the first guy who walks through that door, which will keep him distracted so I can shoot first. Noise traps are just cans dangling from something so that if someone walks through, say, a forest, it'll make noise so I can be alerted. Foxholes are just cover to use before retreating to the house. It'd probably take 7 minutes to get each one dug so you can lie down in it, and another 10 and some wood to make it nice and cozy. This is what I'll spend the next hour and a half doing.

[Ozarck]

Action: gather the team (including Carolina, should she agree to come along), iexamine the wreckage of the supply trucks we destroyed,
and then head south east across that dark grey road and toward the three light grey buildings between here and the other group of red buildings.
If nothing of note happens, and everyone agrees to the plan, we should end up all together near those three buildings.

Just to be clear: keep all eyes out for hostiles. We're not just blindly meandering into enemy fire.


"Alright, this area is bust. Let's move on to the next set of houses. Maybe we'll have better luck there. If not, at least we'll be closer to the objective.

To Carolina:"The group is moving up. This area is dead. I invite you to come with us to the next area. We'll find another spot to bunker up in as we go. If you prefer to stay at the house as a fall-back, I'll send New Guy up to you.

To Denver and Bob:"Keep us posted. We're gonna be heading south of your position, so meet up with us there, once you are finished what you are doing."
((to be honest, it looks like Denver and Bob cold use some help, and are about to either earn some GLORY, or die trying (and still earn some GLORY for the effort).))

Spoiler: mission briefing (click to show/hide)

We've been tasked with helping clear a section of city and then to remove the "Fort du Roule", a heavily fortified hill top bunker, from the list of enemy held positions.
Its position on the hilltops above the city makes it too good of a strategic position for them to just bomb it to gravel.
Taking it won't be easy though; its got at least 5 heavily fortified firing positions and a tunnel system in the stone.
Intelligence indicates there's an entrance on the west side of the mountain, though getting to it might be harder than just getting to one of those fortified positions and blasting on through. Your call.

We're going to drop you off by boat and the local boys will bring you where you need to go. We're told they'll have a map for you but don't expect anything amazing.

This is a simple job, lads: Kill any Kraut that still has some fight in him, spare any citizen of the town, and try to keep that fort as intact as possible."  He waves his hand dismissively at that last part, but doesn't say anything more.

[The Lupanian]

“Yep, on my way. glad I could be of use. I get the feeling the areas a bit sticky, so I’m gonna go all slow like.”
Slowly and cautiously head out to regroup with Ed. Keep an eye out for hostiles.

Spoiler: Carolina (click to show/hide)

Name: Carolina Oliveira
Description:
An average sized woman with an athletic build.
She comes from Brazil, where she was secretly trained as a spy. Despite her training, she took up more combat skills than she did stealth and espionage. She was deployed with the Brazilian Navy in the Atlantic for some time before being sent on reconnaissance in Italy, from there she somehow ended up here.
She wears a grey knitted wool cap. It has ear flaps that dangle down several inches, in the style of many South American knitted hats. It is formed to look like it has cat ears, and it has two larger buttons fastened to look like the eyes. When she has her combat helmet on, the cap is worn underneath as a helmet liner.

Carolina has not responded, so for now I carefully but efficiently advance cover to cover and pick up anything explosive or flammable that I find (including ammo magazines, could be useful), as well as any interesting Nazi memorabilia i.e. Iron Crosses, daggers, weapons etc. Also I stay about 20 yards away from the rest so that if they get ambushed I can abandon them to die and pick up the bodies later.

This is what I am officially doing this round, sorry for the confusion I had no idea where everyone was previously.

...Oh, screw it.  Get a close look at the commander, using the binoculars; just make sure he's not a mannequin or something, a decoy.  If he's real, first treat some of those wounds with first aid... then sneak up behind the tank, knife drawn, trying to stay out of sight of any viewing ports.  Carefully climb up behind him, then charge and stab him through the neck, and pull him out.  Then dive in and kill the crew in melee.  There is no way for this to go wrong.  Nope.

...If the commander is fake, don't use the FAK, and just keep backtracking to base.  Be extra cautious when passing the burning building.

• Set fire to a Nazi-occupied building, which five Nazis then fled from.  Then snuck past without issue.
• Partially scouted the bunker, from the north, found three machine gun nests which have a good view of the entrance switchback, and 180° coverage otherwise.  Saw that the northern slope terminates in a 25-foot high cliff, making it near impassable.
• Got caught near a house which was struck by machinegun lightning and detonated spectacularly.  Survived with -2 life.
