Reload them turrets or help in shooting (adjusting aim, spotting, observation, or using a turret myself)

As Robert took the turret, Tala helped reload and maintain it.

She decided it'd better help a lot more to maintain awareness of the situation like anyone who had awareness would helpfully do. And thus she did so.

"She--she's fine!  It'll take more than that to stop Isabella, she's a tough girl!  Yeah!  Now stop whining and help me take revenge on those bastards for hurting my tank!"

now that's what i call multiversal dramatic irony

"I thought i was good with tanks, Simon. I thought i was good at this. Well, I guess no plan survives contact with the enemy and all that."

Edit: Inspect the tanks for damage before driving Simon closer to the retreating Nazis. If it's drivable, go for it, but avoid my own IEDs. If it's not drivable, get out and disarm my traps.

Take a moment to get out and disarm any traps I made that are still unexploded, then return to the tank and lead the train onward past the ambush site.

Spoiler: Briefing (click to show/hide)

"Welcome back. We've got new orders. I'm not certain how much you all are aware but we have got reports of work camps and prison camps in German where the 'undesirables' are being taken enmasse. We don't know much about the details of them  but what we do know is not good. So we're gonna try and stop anyone else from being sent there.  Thats our mission today. There are 6 trains coming from various locations to the camp in Germany.   Up until now they've been on separate tracks and coming from all over but soon they will reach a switching station that will put them all on one track into Germany.  Thats when we want to hit them. Of course taking over a train filled with hostages without injuring the hostages is too easy so we're adding  a little something more fun to the mix: Once you have the trains we're going to have you drive them back out of occupied territory. We can't exactly get 14 thousand prisoners out of enemy territory on foot so this is basically the only option we have. The plan is this:

First, we drop you ahead of the trains so that you can ambush them and take control. Once you have them under your control, you need to stop them and unhook the engines. From there, we're going to bring you some Engines of our own which will attach to the opposite side of the trains and allow you to drive them back out of occupied territory. We don't expect that the Germans will give you to hard of a time since all you're doing is stealing civilian prisoners, but you never know.  We've plotted a route for you to take that should avoid any highly militarized zone...or at least as many of them as possible.

The tank is definitely damaged, the armor on the left side around the turret is blown open, but the actual treads and engine seem undamaged. It will move just fine but care should be taken to prevent the left side from being exposed.

Roar with righteous rage and ravage Germans with my bayonet. Also, how much damage did the gunshot inflict?

You start to get up and chase the germans as the retreat but are immediately forced to duck for cover as some teammate on the armored train fires into the woods in a way that...while not technically random sure doesn't feel very targeted.

"Bastards... Grah!  Stop pitying yourself Ed, there's still Nazis to kill!  Drive me closer, after I run out of bullets I'll be swapping to an axe!"

Don't bother reloading the De Lisle, just drop it back into hammerspace and start taking shots with the spare Springfield, which is currently loaded with incendiaries.  If after Simon runs through all five shots, there's still visible Nazis, he'll dismount and charge them with an axe and trench knife!

GLORY: 230!

Mission achievements:

• Supplied the tank which destroyed both enemy tanks, killed many infantry, and provided a, uh, "method" of "boarding" the train.
• Came up with the GENIUS plan to get all his allies killed so that he could hoard all the GLORY jump from a moving tank onto a moving train in order to hijack said train.
  
• Managed to not only stay on top of the tank while it fired a cannon shell point blank into the ground underneath him, but also managed to snipe a Nazi machine gunner, through a firing slit, while standing atop the slaloming and exploding tank.  Then he screwed up his jump to the train and ate dirt....
• "You spit some blood and rise up onto one knee, shouldering your rifle and looking through the sight with the eye that isn't already swelling shut. You sight in on the periscope or whatever it is that they're using to aim the main cannon and put a round straight through it, despite the range, the movement, and the fact that you're pretty sure your arm is broken." ((This apparently disabled the cannon, because it never fired on anyone.))
  
• Actually managed to heal himself up completely from the above injuries.
• Killed six Nazis at the switching station with his rifle, plus scored several wounding hits, distracting them from Franek and the incoming hijacked train.
• Saved Franek by dragging him into the tank, so that he wasn't left alone in a base full of angry Nazis.
• Probably supplied Ed with the paint used to disguise Isabella as a Nazi tank, since Simon's the only person who bought paint.
• Managed to shoot down a Nazi fighter, with Isabella's (bent) cannon.  Nobody else managed to seriously damage any of the planes either, and they fled immediately afterward, so Simon chooses to believe they were fleeing from him.
  
• Emptied a De Lisle mag into advancing Nazi forces after Isabella had been shot with a panzerfaust, probably killing a good number since he critted.  The Nazis then began retreating, though that was probably more due to everyone else also killing lots of Nazis, and also Radio ridiculing them.
  

[4]
Simon empties his Springfield into the forest at the retreating soldiers. By the time he fires that last shot the Germans are out of sight and he's just firing at the last area he saw them. He considers going after them with his melee weapons but...well...they're already retreating and Ed is starting to move the tank...so he desists for the moment.

Resume firing at the retreating nazis.

Radio brings the train forward, crossing the bridge and moving on with the tank just behind.  There is now a period of momentary piece in which to consider the next actions. What is known is this:

1. The train is now somewhere very different from where it was a short time ago, more than likely in some Nordic country several hundred or thousand miles off track.
2. The Nazis seem to know what happened and more than that they seem to have done it purposefully.
3. They want the train, or at least the contents of the train, intact.
4. Getting this train back to the planned Escape route is gonna be impossible. A new route a new extraction zone is gonna have to be set up. The coastline is probably the best bet.

[syvarris]

Over the radio: "So, where the hell are we?  Wherever this is, I don't like it.  It's too cold!"

Bah!  Reload the Springfield and De Lisle, keep an eye out for any more hostiles.

If nobody takes charge, ring up command and demand that they give us new orders.  Divert their inevitable reasonable questions about where we are by insulting them and their tactical acumen, while throwing in self-aggrandizing boasts about the myriad violent acts Simon has achieved.

Stay silent if someone else does step up.

"I Don't think the Finns and Pollacks are friendly with the Nazis, are they? We should be in friendly territory now, right? Aside from the Nazis, i mean. Mayeb we can find some civilization. Gosh, I hope we don't have to end up exploding the cargo to keep it out of Nazi hands. That would be depressing.

Hey, Simon. DId Alice come with us? We could really use some Aerial scouting 'bout now."

Tank ahead to find some crossroads, or civilization. Try to not let the left side be exposed if we encounter hostile fire.

Spoiler: Briefing (click to show/hide)

"Welcome back. We've got new orders. I'm not certain how much you all are aware but we have got reports of work camps and prison camps in German where the 'undesirables' are being taken enmasse. We don't know much about the details of them  but what we do know is not good. So we're gonna try and stop anyone else from being sent there.  Thats our mission today. There are 6 trains coming from various locations to the camp in Germany.   Up until now they've been on separate tracks and coming from all over but soon they will reach a switching station that will put them all on one track into Germany.  Thats when we want to hit them. Of course taking over a train filled with hostages without injuring the hostages is too easy so we're adding  a little something more fun to the mix: Once you have the trains we're going to have you drive them back out of occupied territory. We can't exactly get 14 thousand prisoners out of enemy territory on foot so this is basically the only option we have. The plan is this:

First, we drop you ahead of the trains so that you can ambush them and take control. Once you have them under your control, you need to stop them and unhook the engines. From there, we're going to bring you some Engines of our own which will attach to the opposite side of the trains and allow you to drive them back out of occupied territory. We don't expect that the Germans will give you to hard of a time since all you're doing is stealing civilian prisoners, but you never know.  We've plotted a route for you to take that should avoid any highly militarized zone...or at least as many of them as possible.

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.

Scan airwaves. Picking up anything? Even something like civilian radio chatter might help us determine where we are more accurately. If we can contact command, update them on our situation.

Check up on our passengers. Is the cold likely to cause hypothermia in them soon? Any way we could make their situation a little more comfortable?

Scanning the airwaves reveals only vaguely where you are. You believe you're currently in Norway, which the general surroundings seem to indicate is a reasonable guess. You can only make this guess via the languages being spoken though. 

You contact command and update them. They seem rather taken aback, as you might expect, and tell you to give them time to figure something out. They further tell you to keep moving and, if possible, move towards the coast as best you can.

The passengers, according to Tala's ever present checks, are doing ok for the moment. Their cars are pretty well closed off so they're somewhat insulated and the combined body heat of all of them is keeping them warm enough. However with the movement, wind, and general passage of time they're gonna start getting colder. It would be a good idea to figure something out to fix that. Sealing the cars up better might work.

Over the radio: "So, where the hell are we?  Wherever this is, I don't like it.  It's too cold!"

Bah!  Reload the Springfield and De Lisle, keep an eye out for any more hostiles.

If nobody takes charge, ring up command and demand that they give us new orders.  Divert their inevitable reasonable questions about where we are by insulting them and their tactical acumen, while throwing in self-aggrandizing boasts about the myriad violent acts Simon has achieved.

Stay silent if someone else does step up.

• A copy of a German tanker's diary, perfectly translated into Latin.
• "Isabella Hate-Tread", a A FRIGGING PANZER IV TANK!
  

GLORY: 230!

Mission achievements:

• Supplied the tank which destroyed both enemy tanks, killed many infantry, and provided a, uh, "method" of "boarding" the train.
• Came up with the GENIUS plan to get all his allies killed so that he could hoard all the GLORY jump from a moving tank onto a moving train in order to hijack said train.
  
• Managed to not only stay on top of the tank while it fired a cannon shell point blank into the ground underneath him, but also managed to snipe a Nazi machine gunner, through a firing slit, while standing atop the slaloming and exploding tank.  Then he screwed up his jump to the train and ate dirt....
• "You spit some blood and rise up onto one knee, shouldering your rifle and looking through the sight with the eye that isn't already swelling shut. You sight in on the periscope or whatever it is that they're using to aim the main cannon and put a round straight through it, despite the range, the movement, and the fact that you're pretty sure your arm is broken." ((This apparently disabled the cannon, because it never fired on anyone.))
  
• Actually managed to heal himself up completely from the above injuries.
• Killed six Nazis at the switching station with his rifle, plus scored several wounding hits, distracting them from Franek and the incoming hijacked train.
• Saved Franek by dragging him into the tank, so that he wasn't left alone in a base full of angry Nazis.
• Probably supplied Ed with the paint used to disguise Isabella as a Nazi tank, since Simon's the only person who bought paint.
• Managed to shoot down a Nazi fighter, with Isabella's (bent) cannon.  Nobody else managed to seriously damage any of the planes either, and they fled immediately afterward, so Simon chooses to believe they were fleeing from him.
  
• Emptied a De Lisle mag into advancing Nazi forces after Isabella had been shot with a panzerfaust, probably killing a good number since he critted.  The Nazis then began retreating, though that was probably more due to everyone else also killing lots of Nazis, and also Radio ridiculing them.
  

Reloaded.

You wait while Radio talks things over with command.





Far overhead several planes can be seen. They're keeping pace with the train, apparently tracking it, but they're far too high up to be shot at with the weapons currently available.

[Radio Controlled]

Using what I can observe from my surroundings and whatever geography I know, try to determine in what direction the nearest coast is and where the nearest city/large settlement would be.

Listen in on radio chatter coming from the enemy planes, if any.

"Hey, one of you on the turrets right now, try to find a way to seal up those passenger cars better so those people don't freeze their tits off, ok? But don't lock it up so tightly they suffocate!"
