Er, how does Warhammer 40k work? I haven't been able to find combat rules...

There's a moving phase, a shooting phase and a melee combat phase. And you, uhm, roll the dice. >_>

In melee, you first check both units' WS and roll the dice. If the attacker has a WS of 5 and the defender a WS of 3, the attacker needs a 3+ to score a hit. If he hits, he rolls on the Damage Chart (the attacker's strenght vs the defender's toughness). If he wounds, the enemy gets his Armour Save unless the attacker's using weapons that ignore armour.
And so on and so on.
---

You enter the underground and turn west. The journey shouldn't take long.
Wait, what's going on there?


They're breaking down vending machines and scavenging them for food. Tch, some people never change, even in the middle of an alien invasion.

(Probably can't update more today, thanks for playing so far anyway.)

[Phantom]

Oh what the...
 Go in a line formation, Us in front, Vennet Twin that has a knife in the middle, and the last one in back.

[Cheddarius]

Ranged units in the back, though?

[Phantom]

You wanna shoot an ally?

[Digital Hellhound]

You keep the stubpistol in sight as you proceed past the scavengers. They back to the wall, not daring to attack someone with a gun.



You head west.

After a long walk, you recognize the exit as the one nearest to the evac point. The journey was surprisingly easy...



Or not.


As you prepare to exit the tunnels, a massive alien beast leaps out from the exit. You can see it's somehow related to the smaller ones you encountered before.
They'd be exactly alike - if only the small ones suddenly grew three meters and a massive ranged weapon that looked like it had just grown on to the beast.
The beast turns to you and lets out a terrifying roar.



The roar is cut short by a very familiar sound from your time in the City Defense Corps. The sound of a Shredder Autocannon.
The very next second a volley of bullets find their mark on the beast's soft underbelly, dig in, and detonate.
They're firing Devastator Rounds, which makes sense against this type of enemy. Devastator Rounds are explosive and meant to be used against infantry. They seem to be very effective, even though the beast is obviously not dead yet.
Three men, the first one carrying a Shredder, the two others ammo boxes, hurry down the stairs, followed quickly by a CDC Sergeant.
The Shredder team stops at the end of the stairs but the Sergeant continues, raising up his Power Sword.
He cuts straight through the beast's armor with the powerful weapon and, after dealing two more (ineffective) blows, ends it's life with a precise stab.
He pushes the body to the rails, just to be sure.




'Sergeant Darrocks, City Defense Corps. We better get you above-ground.' He nods to the Shredder team, who start packing up their equipment.
' Oh, and for your information, keep your heads down. It's hell up there.'

Whew.

[Phantom]

Evac.

[Heron TSG]

Join the CDC to help other survivors escape.

[Phantom]

Don't be a hero, and we're almost late for the evac.

[Heron TSG]

Heroes are what this world needs.

[Digital Hellhound]

You hurry the stairs up to the outside world. An incredible storm of noise hits you the moment you step out.

' Holy. Shit.' Darrocks mutters, then falls to his knees. He clearly wasn't expecting this.



' Get to the fucking train! We're leaving, now!' you hear someone shout from the crowd. You find your feet already obeying.

[Phantom]

Bloody go! But make sure you don't leave anyone behind.

[Cheddarius]

AWESOME.
> go go go

[inteuniso]

Run like hell!

>Get to the train and pick up any guns or ammo if you happen across them on your way to the train.
