Uhm.

Are Kagus, Lonewolf I, or PopeRichardCorey gonna post?

[Kagus]

Funny, thought I'd posted a turn.  Ah well.

Boogie with the aid of The Groovesprites in order to restore morale and imbue all of us with added efficiency.

Tarran: Move East [1]:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

 Result: 4

You Move East into The Abandoned City. You pass under A Black Gate with Skulls Hanging From It.

The Forlorn Ruins of a Once-Great Civilization open up before you. Dusty Cathedrals, Empty Streets, Wrecked Homes, and Abandoned Stores are all that can be seen here. There Is No Sound but that of the wind blowing through Forgotten Memories.

You notice An Advertisement nailed to A Burnt Wall. It is Strangely Colorful, a lone region of brightness in this Desolate Place.

Flagrarus: Diplomacy Action:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

 Result: 6

Uh, guys, we're, like, totally not communists, you say.

The Others seem Thoroughly Convinced by your Oratory Mastery, and Depower their Phase Cannon.
Sorry about that. We just needed to be sure. You're one of the Operatives, aren't you? We were sent here to help you. Do you want us to land now?

New Rule Discovered! Diplomacy Actions Are Possible

^Round Complete.

[Tarran]

Inspect the Advertisement.

[Kagus]

Fire the Mojofunking Cannon.  At the Moon.

Tell them to land near the Mojofunking Cannon, and then we all go help out Kagus!

Round 36:

Round Complete.

Tarran: Examine Object:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

 Result: 4

You Look Over The Ad.
It seems to be advertising The Company That Hired You, Benevolence Inc. It even has the slogan: Give to them nothing, but take from them... everything.

Apparently there is a Small Benevolence Store to The North, in these very ruins. How Impossibly Convenient.

Too bad you Don't Have Any Money.

Kagus: Use Large Object:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

 Result: 6

With A Mighty Boom The Cannon Fires.

The Shell courses through the heavens Like A Tempered Blade through Wounded Flesh.

The Moon Shakes as The Shot impacts with it's surface, leaving An Ugly Scar onto the rock.

Moon Damage +1!

Suddenly The Moon seems to become Vibrant With Life. It's entire surface Twirls And Changes like boiling water. Small Shapes leave the moon in droves, correct their course, and seem to be headed Straight For You.

How Odd.

Communist Alert Level Red!

Mental Heal Roll: 2

Mental Health 3/6.

New Rule Discovered! The Moon's Damage System Is Unlike The Regular Damage System

Flagrarus: Instruct Allies, Assist Operative: Kagus:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

 Result: 1

As you Prepare To Instruct Your Allies, you are interrupted by A Horrendous Boom. You knock your head on the controls.

Physical Damage Roll: 6
Mental Damage Roll: 1

Physical Health 6/12. Mental Heatlh 11/12. The Hand Brake hits your face badly, but you Shrug It Off. Looking out of the cockpit window, you see Something Emerging From The Moon. Your Allies send an anxious-sounding message:

What did he do? Did he just attack the moon?
He just attacked the moon, didn't he? We're not ready.
We're not ready yet.
Okay, we can handle this. To the east there's an old, abandoned fortress. It's batteries may still have enough juice to take the orbital fire. We need to get there, now.
Move, Operative. We haven't much time.

New Rule Discovered! Instructing Allies Is A Non-Action

Inteuniso: No Action [1]:

PopeRichardCorey: No Action [3]:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

 Result: SAD. SO SAD.

You've Seen Things you people wouldn't believe. Attack Ships on fire off the Shoulder Of Orion. You watched C-Beams Glitter in The Dark near The Tannhauser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time... like Tears in Rain... Time to die.

You Perish.

[Dwarfaholic]

^Round Complete.

[Flagrarus]

Pick up everyone, including the new operative who should be joining this turn, and fly to the abandoned fortress to hide there. Do all this REALLY FAST.

[Kagus]

Uhh...  Hmm.  Well, that was interesting.

Much as I am hesitant to follow the undoubtedly wise course of action thought up by someone with a roll of one, I don't really see much else at the moment that would be particularly helpful in fending off the commies.

Set the Mojofunkin' Groovecannon to slowly Charge Up to overloading (so it explodes after we're gone), then boogie up to that dropship and Get the Funk Outta Here!


Also...  Aren't all Commie alert levels "Red"?

[Tarran]

Fly away to the fortress as fast as I can while shooting lightning bolts randomly at the Communist ships.

[Dwarfaholic]

Also...  Aren't all Commie alert levels "Red"?

Sub-Rule Discovered! All The Alert Levels Are Red.
Sub-Rule Discovered! You're Still Screwed, Though.

[Kagus]

Ah, so that's what that meant.  I just thought you meant "all alert status: Red", and then some odd comment about us 'still' being screwed even though the entire Communist moon base's security was after us.
