One of the Rolan7s: Captain!
Me: Me? You are calling me captain?
R7: Yes, captain.
Me: So, I'm captain?
R7: Yes, captain.
(She must think I am really stupid. Not sure if I disagree. When did I volunteer...)R7: The gals chose you because they think you don't blow everything up. Mostly because you spent the last weeks here in the sickbay, so you didn't have any chance to blow anything up, but that's semantics.
(So...I didn't volunteer after all?!?)Me: Ok ... and the ... former captain?
R7: Oh, she is over there, we also hate that she was mostly leading from the sickbay.
(Good, I am not the only one who is stupid, I am to stay away from fighting for a while as well, I'll better not tell her ...)Me: Ok ... if that is so ... then carry me to my new quarters! And tell that nurse with the perky ... ah ... fingers? the one over there ...
R7: You mean the cute one?
Me: Eh, yes, her. Tell her to accompany me.
R7: Aye aye captain! Oh, btw, there is a lot of stuff and papers, the last captain said she made a list of them inventory things.
I check the inventory, check the inventory of the Terror, have the gals put a lot more stuff inside and take some out (54 mortar shells, really? But no decent melee weapons and basically no shooty weapons apart from shotguns? Something's gonna change!) then sort through what I can sell.
About $1,9mil worth of stuff, apparently!
All that and then some is immediately spent on a new hideout.
Built this way to get the important buildings done asap. If you want to build optimally you need to wait longer for at least one building to come online. It is my standard build order and decent for defence in my experience. As the name implies it is close to where we lost the other one. Or so I was told, I wasn't with this band of misfits back then. But we still had all the merchandise, because it never really got off the ground, I was told.
Along with some ammo I ordered come 2 more Rolan7s. Quick and Strong. That is their names, not their stats.
A Savvy Girl tells us about the
Kingdom of Canada. Not a good place for a gal to be, way to prude, it seems. Stoning for exposed thighs? I mean, come on!
A highwayman tells us about the
ol' Rifle. Better than it sounds, but that doesn't say much.
While a lot of the gals are on their way to South America to I play with the slot machine. I WIN! Mostly useless stuff, but we come out ahead.
The gals land, and the feed from the go pro cams starts. They are close to the academy ... wait, what is that?
Nope, no academy! Unless the academy gals changed a lot since I ran away from them.
We manage to put the thing to sleep (by shooting it with a heavy shotgun!), but it keeps getting up again, we'll kill it if there is any risk involved (= as soon as two gals who have a hard time hitting a barn with their stun batons manage to not put it back to the ground).
More Zombies, Robsoie kills a regular one, Salad Dog puts a singer to sleep - with a 40mm HE grenade. That one also sets the jungle on fire.
Oh, fuck! Zombie-Mom.
Salad tries to repeat her trick, but only manages to propel the grenade a couple feet into the next wall and hurt E.Albright.
She also sets the jungle on fire right where we are. As if it wasn't hot enough already.
Around this time the bugger with the claws gets killed properly and E.Albright gets her revenge by killing what Salad wanted to kill. This is not how revenge usually works, but we'll ignore that for now.
We kill more zombies, among them another singer, and can't find the last asshole. The heat takes its toll ...
... and insanity keeps the gals from doing gal stuff.
Which is bad, because somehow the zombie manages to sneak up upon Violent Rolan7 and kill him.
Mugs splits his head with an axe in return.
At least it was good bravery training.
The bad thing: Rolan7 was carrying one of our two advanced medipacks, and it burned up when Salad did her thing with the grenade launchers.
Mugs gets promoted to Boss Gal for axing the zombie like a boss, and Egan_BW steals most of the titles despite doing nothing really noteworthy.
RIP! Somehow I am sure we didn't see the last Rolan7.
While the Terror is on its way home we see a ship land, stay on the ground unmolested, then fly away again.
THAT WAS HORRIBLE! I spend
our my earnings from gambling and procure a Scarab. We have a charger laser lying around uselessly, might as well equip it on something. I also heard about plans about following craft until they land, and the Turtle is useless for that. Few other crafts are cannot outrun it. It's tiny radar dish (on other crafts they call these "windows") doesn't help with that either.
The
Nurse Outfit is nice. For ducks and kinky roleplaying games, it is not much good in a fight. With so few crew onboard I'd hate to have one who can't kill properly.
More importantly the brainers finish taking apart an
ol' carbine. Which in itself is not important, but it allows us to contact the Gun Emporium, and THAT is better than a shop full of cookies and ice cream. Well, at least its almost as good.
Good thing I ordered a Scarab, then!
That is a bandit warehouse, Jack has some trouble with the current inhabitants. He wants us to take care of the problem. Violently.
Fuck you! None of our craft can into space. Well, ok, we have one, with one more on the way. To be more precise: none of the craft we know about can into space.
A drifter was once anally probed by aliens, or so he says. I think, I was only looking at the pretty pictures.
As soon as the Scarab is delivered we put stuff in it
and dust off to ... its batteries are empty, we refuel (reenergy?) it. Only then can 4 gals go and have chat with the bandits. That doesn't go well, and the head bandit, who as stupid enough to be alone with 4 armed gals twice his size draws a gun. See, he wasn't the boss because he was smart ...
He dies, and the gals take up positions at the wall, because someone must have heard him scream.
And come they do! They mostly die as well, in the reaction fire, but they manage to wound to of us!
At around turn 4 the last one comes into view and crosshair.
A very nice haul, with 4 of them tokens!
MCreeper, who was on her first raid, did really well, but will now spend some time with the former captain in the sickbay.
