That's what I get for rolling a 3 and a 2 at the same time.  If I had rolled a 1, they would have killed me, right?  So I'll count myself lucky.

Be a cooperative captive(but give them somewhat false information if they ask for it), who also happens to notice everything around him.

You can't roll a 1. The system is 2d8; 2 is the lowest roll.

Should we like not fire artillery now seeing as Fredrick is in the enemy camp?

Suggest we take the 10 man Mercenary squad into the forest to counter any enemy patrols, I will volunteer to go with them.

He's not there yet. You can probably knock out a gun if you act fast.

Raeg, that's horrible.

I fume about having my spot taken, and move over, waiting for a gunner to get wounded so I can take his spot. Got nothing better to do.

Distract Frey's escort with a single rifle shot aimed at their general direction, and then prepare to gtfo or ambush depending on how many of them attack. Ask for support.

Turn 21: The Assault

Try to increase my hiding capabilities, snipe the officer.
You try and find a better spot to hide, then line up a shot on the officer. (13+2) You shoot him in the head, but your bullet is somehow defective and only wounds him. Still, the shot doesn't go unnoticed and the camp is now Alarmed. The sentries spread out looking for you.

+2 to Sharpshooting
+2 to Camouflage

Your captors lead you farther into the woods, and you pass by several other squads. (7) You notice that they seem to be getting ready to attack the fort soon, bu- wait is that a missile launcher?!?
+1 to Observation

Suggest we take the 10 man Mercenary squad into the forest to counter any enemy patrols, I will volunteer to go with them.
The mercenaries don't really want to go back in there, (14) but you rouse them with an excellent speech and they prepare to set off again.

+4 to Inspiration


Raeg, that's horrible.

I fume about having my spot taken, and move over, waiting for a gunner to get wounded so I can take his spot. Got nothing better to do.
You sit on an ammunition crate and fume. (8) You do an average job fuming.

I begin sneaking my way towards the artillery clearing.
Seeing Patch and the other mercenaries sneaking into the forest, you decide you will probably be safer with them than by yourself and join up.

Distract Frey's escort with a single rifle shot aimed at their general direction, and then prepare to gtfo or ambush depending on how many of them attack. Ask for support.
You shoot at one of the trees nearby to see their reaction. (10) After a few looks and hushed whispers, four of them split off and start searching for where the shot came, while the other 4 continue heading to camp. You radio in your position to the others and ask for help.
+1 to Rifles

Quote from: Artillery Squad
Fire!
The gunners fire another round of shells into the forest. (12) Another sentry is wounded and the damaged gun destroyed. (11)

Quote from: Enemy Gunners
Hit something this time!
The enemy gunners fire another salvo out of the three remaining guns (10) and hit the fortress. The fortress is now damaged.

Quote from: Frederick's Captors
Bring him back!
The 4 remaining soldiers take Frederick into the enemy camp. (10) They tie him up and confiscate his equipment.

Quote from: Enemy Ordnance
Take those guns out!
Swoosh! Several soldiers emerge from the trees and fire missiles at the artillery cannons! (13) Kaboom! Two of the guns are destroyed and several of the gunners wounded.

Quote from: Enemy Army
Attack!
A large force of enemy soldiers, probably around 40, charge out of the forest and begin to cross the river. They fire shots as they cross and (29) several of the personnel are wounded.

Prepare ambush with SMG drawn.

I need just one guy as a reinforcement, max. The others should handle the bazooka troopers probably.

Swear, fire again, and run.

Now's my chance!

Take over for one of the wounded gunners, and use my super skills to bring shelling death upon them!

Cautiously test my bonds, and figure out (but do not execute) a way to undo them.  Watch for a moment of intense confusion.
