"Argh, why can't tank designers just put in a flight stick and throttle like normal people?"

Get the tank back on the road. No guarantee that Ed won't get a knife in the gut if he comes over here, I'm not feeling very charitable.

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.

You shove radio's chest with both hands and stand up, planting a foot on his sternum and looking around. Seeing as nothing horrible seems to be coming your way, you get off him and head up the hill to the back door. You tactically stand to the side of it and wait to see what happens.

You line your knife up on the keyhole and stab. You do this repeatedly until suddenly the deadbolt holding the door shut pops out of place and flies into the room beyond with a series of loud metallic clinks

You turn around, knife raised, and nod knowingly while gesturing towards the door with one hand.

"Huh."

You step forward and, very slowly, pull the door open. You get it all of maybe 6 inches before bullets scream down the hall and ricochet off the door and the walls with ringing metallic impacts and puffs of pulverized concrete. You slam the door shut again.

"They appear to know we're here."

((Aaaaargh! I dislike losing my posts! D:))

Retroactive action: Since I wasn't in danger last turn, my post would've been to 'fake' a grenade throw through the slit by finding and throwing a similar-sized rock, then pop up real quick to pistol the gunner and clear a way through; can this be processed pretty quickly Piece?

If I feel it's still too dangerous after that try or before doing it; pop a smoke grenade instead, and fake a silhouette nearby before shooting in.

You hit the wall next to the slit. It doesn't appear to do anything to abate the gunfire coming from the firing slit.

"Noted, Ed.  Loady, I'm gonna get out and start shooting Nazis if possible, go for the axes while I've got you covered."

Exit the tank (rotate the turret until the hatch is clear, if it isn't already), and scope out the surroundings for Nazi targets.  If we're within view of the bunker, or there's any hostile infantry visible, take cover on the opposite side of the tank and start popping heads.  If not, just grab whatever tools are available--at worst, Simon's entrenching tool--and start working on freeing the tank.

If no progress is made on clearing the logs, and Ed's driving isn't helping, fire a 30-06 incendiary into each of the offending trees.  _{^{Obstructive bastards.}}

  Current mission accomplishments (So I don't have to go back over things later):
  
• Scouted out the northeastern Nazi positions, has now informed everyone.  Including the Nazis, probably.
• 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.  Then stole their Panzer IV and drove it home.
• While riding in that tank, survived a massive targeted lightning bolt through no fault of his own.  Ed rolled a one and utterly failed to dodge.
• Was "commander" of the tank while it managed to destroy two bunkers with the main gun.
• Was bravely riding outside the tank as it charged into scorched earth, and then tumbled down the side of a hill.  Was only kept from being thrown free by Parrish, but hey, it's still pretty glorious.  "Glorious" is almost like a synonym of "suicidally brazen"!

"Roger, Simon."
Locking in this one as my action to roll for. Check my M1 to make sure it's loaded and clear of jams, fix the bayonet just in case, and wait 3 seconds after Simon jumps out. Then jump out and check the tank for chopping tools, and grab them and start working on the trees. Put the coin back in my pocket, since Simon and Alice aren't fighting yet.

((AGH NO NOT THE BEES! NOT THE BEES! AWDGAKJWDGAWKYD MY EYES! etc.))

Spoiler:  Tobeis Parrish, possibly brave rifleman (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 attempt to open the hatch only to find that SOMEONE has dropped a young tree down on top of it. You sigh and then attempt to muscle our way up through the hatch.
[5] You shoulder your way up, rolling the tree off to one side, and look around. The firing slits up the hill are still vomiting bullets down into the forest but none of them seem to be able to fire this far off to the side. Likewise you can't really shoot them; all you've got a view of is a lot of trees and a wall of gray concrete beyond them.
[2+1][4]
You rummage around the tank and find a hand ax; nothing special but it will do. You climb out and start hacking away at the two trees boxing in the tank. Tobeis follows you out, sharpened shovel in hand and gets to work on the tree behind the tank while you work on the tree in front. They are quite large and thick trees; at least they seem that way when you're hacking away at them with a little hand ax. You get...oh maybe a quarter of the way through one.

"Argh, why can't tank designers just put in a flight stick and throttle like normal people?"

You reverse the tank as far as you can and then gun it forward into the tree Simon is currently chopping. The tank hits it with tremendous force and the treads churn wet leaves and soil, throwing sprays of mud and rocks out behind it. The engine roars and after several seconds there's an audible crack and the tree tilts drunkenly forward, roots tearing free as it falls.  Simon and Tobeis skitter back into the tank and close the hatch behind them as you guide the tank back onto the road.

Ed takes a drag. "Simon," he says, blowing a stream of smoke out the slit. "Be sure to add 'French Trees' to the list of suspected Nazi sympathizers, along with clouds and doorknobs."

Ed carefully maneuvers around Alice and into the driver's seat, (providing this action doesn't earn him a knife in the ... in the anything, really).
He then drives up to the bunker and parks against the blast doors.

Edit: Since Alice is being all hysterical (wandering uterus, ya know?), Ed will do the whole "swivel the turret in an attempt to clear some log jams. Once Simon is out, Ed will also bail, getting some distance between himself and the several tons of angy Nazi engineering piloted by an angry grouchy pilot.

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 sit in your gunner seat and swivel the turret with a sarcastic face, waggling your eyebrows as the turret fails to touch any of the trees around or on top of the tank.

Pretty sure I gave it to Oz since he was the first to answer.  Not that he can't be used by multiple people. 

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.

"Seems like we found a backdoor into the party. We might want to get a move on before they realize we're here, but just the two of us is a little lonely, so if anyone wants to come and help us rain on this bratwurst parade that'd be appreciated."

Report situation to rest of the team. Then, go take a peek through the door, be ready to duck away if fast metal presents present themselves.

Keep that handaxe.  What risk is it, and does it count as a melee weapon, or exotic?

Otherwise, keep on commanding, assist Alice with driving if needed.  Not much to do until we get into shooting range.

  GLORY: 105!
  
  Current mission accomplishments (So I don't have to go back over things later):
  
• Scouted out the northeastern Nazi positions, has now informed everyone.  Including the Nazis, probably.
• 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.  Then stole their Panzer IV and drove it home.
• While riding in that tank, survived a massive targeted lightning bolt through no fault of his own.  Ed rolled a one and utterly failed to dodge.
• Was "commander" of the tank while it managed to destroy two bunkers with the main gun.
• Was bravely riding outside the tank as it charged into scorched earth, and then tumbled down the side of a hill.  Was only kept from being thrown free by Parrish, but hey, it's still pretty glorious.  "Glorious" is almost like a synonym of "suicidally brazen"!
• Helped free his tank from several dastardly trees, while within earshot of Nazi machineguns (pointlessly) filling the air with lead.

((we haven't freed the tank yet mate.))
"Well, we only need to get through the one, I guess."
keep on hacking at the tree until we're halfway through it, and then see if the tank can finish break it for us by ramming the half chopped tree. Make sure to cut it in such a way that it doesn't fall on us or the tank. Keep an eye on both the bunker and our general area, in case the Krauts try to send someone to reclaim their tank.

Spoiler:  Tobeis ‘I’m very nervous right now’ 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.

Get the tank back on the road. No guarantee that Ed won't get a knife in the gut if he comes over here, I'm not feeling very charitable.

You reverse the tank as far as you can and then gun it forward into the tree Simon is currently chopping. The tank hits it with tremendous force and the treads churn wet leaves and soil, throwing sprays of mud and rocks out behind it. The engine roars and after several seconds there's an audible crack and the tree tilts drunkenly forward, roots tearing free as it falls.  Simon and Tobeis skitter back into the tank and close the hatch behind them as you guide the tank back onto the road.

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.
