"Bullet wounds?"
Strife would be the best to figure that out, though.


Also, what's 'resting'. Will he be able to move inland with the rest of us, if we move?

I agree with Sheb. I will assist with any transportation of items or people to the new camp site, which should be in a nice fortified position by that lake Tack found. Perhaps in that cave after someone scouts it out.

Resting, officially, is eating a "meal" enough to recover a hunger point, drinking water enough to recover a thirst point, sleeping enough to recover stamina points, and relaxing to recover health damage and fatigue.

Seeing as no one has lost any of those (Barbar has a very special perk and rolled extremely well on his turn,) resting right now may be overkill. I mean, you won't have to run three days through the jungle to get to the clearing.

I'm assuming that everyone is back at the camp right now.


"Okay, this is pretty bad overall. Our first priority is going to be getting the bloody hell into concealment. I don't like the idea of going to the cave without scouting it first, but I like the idea of staying out in the open like this even less. Take all the useful stuff we've got, then move to the cave. Secure the outside, build a fire, and very carefully explore the thing. Barbarossa, being an annoyingly athletic type, you can still keep up with the rest of the group moving slowly, right?"

"For all that, someone's going to have to take a better look at the village. Barbarossa did the right thing by getting back here soonest, but we need to find out more. What exactly killed them? How long have they been dead? What kind of remnants are there in that village?"

"As soon as I'm finished with those" (Pointing at the stretchers) "I'm following you. The ones wo are going to the cave should leave a track, but nothing to easy to spot. Or I guess we can just follow your tracks anyway, we're many."

Good point.

"I think I can stand to go a ways yet before resting, actually. I'll show you the way there. It's not too far from here, anyway."

>Instead, I will go with Strife.

Strife, I'm gonna need some kind of legend for that map of yours. Can't see a thing on it.
Furthermore, I'm with the move-everything-to-the-lake people. However, I thinkt we should try to cover our tracks from the beach as much as possible, ie not leave any kind of signs that we can not later remove. I mean, assuming there's unfriendlies around, they're gonna come looking (if for no other reason than to check out and/or loot the the crash site) sooner or later, and we would probably not want them to be able to follow an obvious trail from the beach to our new camp.

So what I'm suggesting is, we've got to come up with a better way of leaving pointers to follow than carving large marks in the trees.

The only one who didn't make it back to camp was Japa.

I'm going to stay on the beach for this turn, trying as hard as possible to find the Emergency kit, then I'll head out to find the lake, just leave a decent trail and I'll obliterate it as i pass.

I mean it's BRIGHT FRICKIN' ORANGE and made of Kevlar... it has to be here SOMEWHERE...

"Japa not being here kinda screws things up, doesn't it. Alright, we're going to need at least three groups, I guess. The main group grabs the stuff and heads to the cave. Any kind of concealment is better than this beach, ya know? I'd want Tack and Barbarossa with that group. Tack, because he knows where it is, and Barbarossa because you've done enough running for the moment, but if the main group needs someone fast, you're the best bet for it.

Diakron, I take it that you want to stay on the beach for a few more hours and try to find the plane's E-kit. I'm not sure if it'll wash ashore, but it's possible. Additionally, you'll be here when Japa decides to show his sorry ass up again. With him in tow, you'll have to make your way to the cave. From what Tack's said, it shouldn't be that tough to find, just head to the mountains and look for the fall. I'm relatively sure that you'll be able to handle yourself.

Finally, Sheb and I will be heading to the village to take a look at it. We'll be moving carefully once we get close, so it's possible that we'll hole up somewhere for the night. We'll join the rest of the group at the cave soon enough.

Other than that, everyone should memorize the directions to both the cave and the village, in case you get separated. Stay covered and concealed as much as possible when you move. Speed isn't the primary concern right now; someone breaking an ankle would be very bad."


Do we have the personal flotation devices that we washed ashore with? They'll be useful at some point, I'm sure.

I was planning on making a list next time Strife'd get a turn to be recordkeepery.

And so, Strife recordkeeper became the Expedition leader.

I'm not to complain. He's doing good.

Well, first up, I'll sift through the jagged metal, and try to find a short strip which I can stomp out, and then cut a sleeve free and wrap it around the base for a makeshift knife. Hopefully i can use that to make our path a little clearer for people following afterwards.

Afterwhich, I'll help with packing things up, and bundling it into hammocks.
