Eh, I see no IC reason to linger. risk v reward and all. I just think that IC the threat of immanent second explosion is too great to ignore

Everything worth exploding already exploded, I don't think you really have to worry about that any more, in fact.

There might still be hidden nukes explosives in a broom closet somewhere though, best not take any chances.

If we assume there's a nuke in every darn closet on the premises, we might as well have just hit it with incendiaries directly.

There are two buildings full of munitions on the premises. In plain view. One of which has been visited by three of us. Both of which are on fire. Both of which have taken damage from aa guns.

Neither of which has yet exploded.

Just FYI, unless someone goes and picks up Joan's radio, I'm gonna end up flying off by myself.
I'd love it if there was more than just the radio being picked up, honestly >_>

*Shrug* I cannot help lack of in character coordination or communication.
I know that :P And in no way am I pushing any 'blame or fault'.
It's moreso that this could ALL HAVE BEEN PREVENTED.
Next requisition if I ever get to it, I'm ordering a ton of radios for everyone.

But asking people to chime in OOC notes while setting a quick fuse bomb may not help when we're drastically uncoordinated. <_<
If we had communicated, we'd know because the only people--sans TOASTER--who knew about the children, are dead, and from that we'd know there's a lot more going on than just a minor fuel explosive hazard.

Also stop rushing out with that jeep. Wait for people, aid the wounded, appoint some people or set out an order to fire on all people in uniform--which can never be us since we're in black, for protection. >_< You have ALL THE TIME now, especially since the foe is disoriented and most likely having lost their officers and key personnel.

And as I note, people do know where Alice is at. Several were in sight range of her given previous maps. Communicate!

BTW, I did edit Robert McKinley's action to have him grab IDs and the like from any dead allies he found, along with other things in order for a proper funeral or remembrance.

That's just the explosives trying to give you a false sense of security.

Yes. This. My point exactly. thank you.

Also stop rushing out with that jeep. Wait for people, aid the wounded, appoint some people or set out an order to fire on all people in uniform--which can never be us since we're in black, for protection. >_< You have ALL THE TIME now, especially since the foe is disoriented and most likely having lost their officers and key personnel.
I'll slow down a bit, but we do NOT have all the time in the world. I repeat - the munitions buildings remain a very big explsoive threat. just because th fuel station exploded, doesn't mean we are done with the fireworks.

I would suggest someone (notably Toaster) to mention the kids.

Their building is on fire, and I doubt the fire can creep in so fast as to get it done in. Besides that, you're all pretty okay.

Just have someone APPRAISE THE SITUATION as a bolded action to check how fast the fire is spreading. :)

...I really would like to mention to y'all about that <_<
Because those kids are in that building, and the exit is pretty close to it by the road.

The objective is unfinished, so you shouldn't just ditch the mission.


If the fuel-air bomb shenanigans didn't blow the munitions bunker immediately, they won't be now. Probably.


And even if they do, you owe it to all of us to start collecting corpses and equipment, since probably 85% of the Nazis (And these are almost certainly hard-core Nazis/SS, rather than just German soldiers. Too secret and too inhumane for anybody else to work here) are dead.

Yeah, pretty sure the objective here was info, remember? Papers or kidnapped people. Kids were secondary and blowing up the base was the exit action.

Who says I am ditching the mission? Nothing prevents us from circling back after the secondary explosions. They won't expect it, at any rate.

I do confess that I have exactly zero interest in collecting corpses though. equipment? If it is special, sure. that radio, for instance, is our ticket out of here, though I am sure we could find a way without it.

Ed knows about the kids, as do Yarrick and Joe Nix? Since they were with me when I drove up and started loading shells. If Ed thought we had time, he would be more than glad to stick around and load more kids. Ed's seeing visions of fiery death right now - visions both real and potential.

This is a good idea. I confess that I posted my action too quickly yesterday. I was still processing. But, I'm not sure if I would have done it anyway, as it would have potentially burned a round. But sice we have our friendly neighborhood agent of the unde3ad around

PW, What, upon reflection, does Ed think the chances are of getting the remainedr of the shells onnto the truck before the munituions explode? ((I'll add this to my action, too))

Well we did the exit :P

...We didn't do anything else I guess? ._. As far as I know...that being pretty little actually, Joan signaled home base and notified them of the sitrep.

Just do it :I Y'all have a lot of driving to go through and an unknown rendezvous point--just like Alice!
Also probably clear those darn AA guns up North, send in a kill team of ~3 to 4 people to cover and overwatch/get those AA guns, while the rest of you try to salvage the children OR any papers.

Not in the barracks but probably in the same area your kill team is heading to. :P

Because dog tags don't exist? :P
All I'm asking is since we had COLLATERAL AVOIDABLE DEATHS, that you trap our corpses, being the Engineer that set the bomb himself.
Me and Zack have supplies from the supply depot--no grenades, but you can rig stuff up.
Actually everyone is pretty okay, considering that we have an advantage of having disoriented the enemy here. I'm totally not still grumpy nope. Hmpf!
