"I'll move with Tala when we split up sir.
Move with Tala when we split up. Check the organs to make sure they can't be used as explosives

Tala (Tiruin); Sniper/Medic
Grouse (Leodanny); please post your sheets next time
Taggart (RGU); Flamethrower/Melee person
And probably the new guy Yay newbies!

Continue the plan! More sneaky searching!

Tala, if you would take two people, maybe Taggart and Grouse (Random and Leodanny) down the southwest branch, I'll take Jack and Radio down the southeast branch, and we'll meet up again in the middle branch. Sound good? If you have any trouble, three loud whistles on your bird call will bring us running. One long whistle will tell us to retreat to our little bunker. If we don't see you in the middle fork, we'll do a quick sweep of where you were supposed to go before heading back to regroup and move on to the next place. You do the same if you don't find us. If I go missing, you are in charge. If you and I fall, Jack, you'll be in charge. Got it?

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.

GLORY: 105!

Current mission accomplishments (So I don't have to go back over things later):

• Scouted out the eastern Nazi positions, has not informed anyone yet.
• 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.

[5][6][5]
You breathe out slowly, readying yourself, before leaping up. You vault up ontop of the tank and dive forward, catching the commander by the face and jerking his head back. You stab straight into the side of his throat and then jerk the blade forward, severing every major artery and his trachea in one blow. The man struggles as blood sprays out onto you and all over the tank, but you manage to drag him out far enough for you to dive, snake like, down into the bowels of the tank.  There's little room down there, everyone is effectively in arm's length of each other and there is little time to react.  The only one who even manages to counter attack is the last man you reach, the loader. He gets his pistol out and even manages a shot, which misses you and ricochets around the tank's interior for a terrifying half second before coming to a stop in one of the dying crew members.

Its all over in a few seconds; the crew takes longer than that to finally die but the fight is over long before that happens. You crouch, panting and spattered in warm blood, as they gurglingly expire around you.  Once you get your breath back, everything is silent.

The enemy was drawing near, and it seemed like Denver was probably about ready.

When Bob hears the clicks from Denver, he'll open fire with his BAR. Fire about a four round burst at each person on Bob's side of the truck. If any are up after that, empty the magazine. If any remain after that, Bob will open fire with his pistol. Also, try to get a feel for how things are going on the other side of the truck by looking under to see feet, to see if Denver needs help taking down his side or whatever.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

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.

Survived Injuries+Missions+Accomplishments:
Hit in the forehead with machinegun fire on D-Day, helmet broke his nose, but saved his life.
Clipped by machinegun fire from main bunker on D-Day.
Caught in part of the fuel explosion in Poland: Large burns on exposed skin, but survived.
Survived the attack on the USS St. Elijah.
Proudly displayed his nude form in the Park Crescent Hotel Lobby, and acted as an excellent getaway driver.
Shot out some random Nazi vehicle's tire.

Once the truck and soldiers are down the road close enough that they're in range but are all still about 50 feet away northwise, send clicker signal and then fire a 5 round burst at each guard. Keep firing at the escorts on my side until all are down, and then fire on the drivers and rush on them for kills using any left over ammo and my trench knife.

Should I run out of ammo, apply trench knife to enemies.

Both Denver and Bob wait until the truck is in position and then, on the signal, open fire. Its quite hard to tell exactly who does what; both unleash withering sprays of lead that tear through nazis and truck with equal ease. However, two of the guards manage to break from the convoy and run behind a nearby building, taking cover from the gunfire. They return fire a moment later.
[2,2][6,2]

The surviving guards open fire in the direction they seem to believe the gunfire came from. One gets dangerously close to hitting Denver, but neither manage to hit their target.



 

Ed's reporting the organs to Bones. Also, did we notice anything with [the forbidden word] on it? Ed would like to retroactively pick up anything of that sort that is easily manageable, and will be actively keeping an eye out for them in the future. You know the word I mean.

We'll make our way around the north side of the fish processing tanks and scout the area. If all is clear, we'll head south into the red roofed area (Splitting up with Tala's group taking the side near the industrial complex and Ed's group taking opposite), unless Bob and Denver actually contact us about their situation, in which case we'll move to rendezvous with them.

We are distributing the weapons in OOC. Ed is taking one of the Gewehrs, 10 ammo, and an amulet, and passing the second amulet to Tala.

"Tala, better hang onto this, or give it to one of the others if you have one. We ought to ask Bones about them when we get back. Anyway, if all is clear, shall we split up again to scout this neighborhood? I'll take the left, you take the right, and we'll meet at the bottom?"

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.

You radio back about the organs and look for anything with THAT word on it. You cannot find anything, in english or in german, but that symbol is on each crate.

You head around, past the fish tanks and over to the homes. These homes are all abutting the main street and you can immediately tell they haven't been attacked yet. They're all still intact, no signs of Germans or damage from bombs. Just quiet homes along an empty road. You move through and into their shared backyard area. There's a swing and some evidence of children having played here; toys scattered about here and there.

You hand the weapons out as you decide in OOC, keeping an amulet for yourself and handing one to tala. The metal Tingles slightly on your skin.

Follow Ed's plans. Maybe touch a liver or other organ. Mmmm. Organs. What's the risk on the gewehr and the smgs?

This'n's some good stuff. Gonna put it all to good use.

His obsession with "soft" things turned to something of an obsession with soft meats. He was quickly transferred to the best brigade for this kind of man.

Denver is going to charge on the truck, getting to the side that the Nazi's aren't on. He will shoot the drivers if he can see them, and use his trench knife as main weapon once he reaches the truck cabin. Once he reaches the cabin, he will kill any surviving Nazis.

The houes in this little area are arranged in a sort of triangle around the shared back yard, right? One leg of houses kinda heads down that road that heads into the industrial zone, the other leg lines the road that kinda heads down out of the map, and the base of the triangle is those two houses at the bottom along that east west road that then curves south to head out of the map. I intended our split-up to just search the houses along each leg of the triangle and meet up at the houses at the bottom.

basically, since it seems safe enough, we'll go door to door and chat up the locals in our typical American fashion: by asking questions and raising our voices at the first sign of incomprehension, speaking slower and louder until we make ourselves understood.

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.

[syvarris]

Simon leans back against one of the walls, still breathing heavily as the Nazi crewmen gasp their last breaths around him.  He raises his shaking hands in front of his face, one still clutching his trench knife in a deathgrip, and twists them around in front of him.  No new wounds.  With one hand, he starts patting himself down, expecting to find some wound somewhere.  Eventually he realizes that all the blood really is German, and his mouth splits into a wide grin.  He bursts into racuous laughter,  and thrusts both fists forward victoriously, slamming both of them into the machinery in front of him, as hard as he can.  He ignores the fresh pain in his his left fist,  then spins around to bury his knife in the heart of the loader, his laughter dying down into quiet chuckling.

Then he turns to the commander's opening, and lets go of his knife, leaving it in the corpse.  Time for the big finish.

First, button up.  Close (and lock?) the hatch, make sure all others are secure.
Second, get looking at the radio; can it be configured to transmit to the allies, and not the Nazis?  If that sounds even vaugely plausible, try.  Don't say anything yet, though; I'd rather annouce my success after the tank starts moving.
Third, get the tank moving.  Northwest, towards the Allies' base, maybe respecting the roads if they're fairly direct.  It's a tank, houses aren't obstacles; they're suggestions.

Spoiler: Simon Smith, awesomest sniper (click to show/hide)

Name: Simon Smith
Description: A short and somewhat stocky man with a thick beard and a bulky gasmask.  His looks are deceptive, as he's actually quite agile.  He has six firearms chained to his back, along with an assortment of knives and a sniper rifle he's always carrying around.

Current mission accomplishments (So I don't have to go back over things later):

• Scouted out the eastern Nazi positions, has not informed anyone yet.
• 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.
• Killed an entire tank crew.  In melee. Without taking any wounds.  ALONE.

[Strider03]

Well, they weren't dead, so Bob was happy. Still had a few to take down though.

((Plan is fine by me!))
Lay down some cover fire and try to hit the two Nazis behind the building when Denver dashes out. (If necessary, switch out to a new magazine first?).

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.

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.

I thought you were just showing up in Ed's group like ya said?  I only see your "Sure" post and no other action...Unless you wanted an introduction post  where you walk in from off screen, so to speak? I can do any of those, I'm just not sure how much fanfare you want or if you want to just show up like you were always here.

Do try not to startle the explosives afficionado with all your fanfare, though.

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.

You keep holding the pipe up. You begin thinking that perhaps a lightning rod which directs the lightning into yourself is not a good idea.

Nonsense, it will redirect it into the ground for sure! Also I was hoping to brace it against something to act as a lightning rod without having to hold onto it too much once the electrodeath actually starts a-coming.
