Frikkin killstealers... Disconnect the battery from my carbine and throw it down an empty hall. And flip the shutdown switch. And screw the barrel off, just in case.
Don't loot an enemy weapon, that's dumb, but do grab a battery from one of their guns that I can hopefully hotwire to my own.

(3), you start unscrewing the battery when the gun makes that alarming BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE- squeal, so you chuck the whole thing out along the hallway. It explodes a couple dozen feet away. You are now weaponless. Well, specifically, yu are Laser Carbineless. A Grunt is never truly weaponless. Even that legendary Grunt without arms or legs, may he burn them all in hell.
Head to the objective, pick up a spare carbine on my way past The Other Guys' corpses.

Platoon 2 Death rollshmmm. Well, you are now doing battle with a squad of ENgineers. So ... one death roll this round.
(5) nothing happens. You all live, and presumably meet up at the corner just before engineering. There is a receptionist office at the corner, and across the hall (the hall that people are shooting down), there is what looks to be a Head Engineer's office. THe hall ends in double doors. Some kind of chest high barricade is set up in front of the double doors, which are open just wide enough for a body to fit through. Several Engineers are behind the barricade, in front of the doors.

Platoon 3 Death Rolls(1)(4)(3)(4)(3)
FKD and BLD each recieve minor wounds this round, while rand and sev get serious wounds.
Zii is burnt by the steam coming out of a pipe nearby, and dies. Speaking of which, that steam is pouring into the room. SOmething broke or something. You need to get out of this place, or risk being boiled alive! And then processed like so much Gruntweight of waste.
Instructions for next round:Respawn:Respawn with your platoons. We'll assume several darts connected with the ship in the same area, so just jump right in.
Newbies, pick a platoon and post your action in that color, as if you are with that group already.
Platoon 1Assist the battle for the COmmand Deck
TMPlatoon 2Engineering is guarded by engineers. This is either good news, or it is not good news.
