Turn 10 :
Use the medical tools to get the shrapnel out of Tyrin.
[2+1] You manage to get all the shrapnel out of the wound. Sadly it seems to have worsened the bleeding though.
> Use medical salves/bandages from the T.M. (not from my personal supplies) to heal Shaun O'Malley's burn wounds. If none are found in the T.M, use some of my supplies.
[3] While you are obviously not an expert, the bandaging will suffice.
((Darn it! And here I thought I could create something new in this timeframe. 
))
ACTION CHANGE
Modify the prototype laser rifle to be added onto the T.M. as an automated turret!
Pick up that Blunderbuss and it's accompanying materials.
Thank Edward Johnson.
Pack up 8 rations.
"Anyone in on investigating the dragons? I've read a bit on them, and based on what time I see, this would be an eye-opening experience.
I wonder, do they use trenches and bayonets in a high-fantasy world?
[1+1] Unfortuntately you don't make much progress. AT least you didn't break the rifle. You pick up your blunderbuss and some rations.
"Oh goody. World War IV was worse, and we all know it." Shaun winced slightly as his wounds were dressed. "Meanwhile, I know this jetpack... Older model, before I was head of research. I worked on it a bit... Time to see if I can find any fuel for it, so I don't run out any time soon.
Figure out what the other random gadget is, then take stock of what building/construction materials are lying around, to see if I can fabricate either a module to attach to the jetpack to allow it energy-based flight (meaning it either can use less or no fuel, but has recharging like the T.M, or fly normally using fuel) or to see if I can fabricate a magnetics-based grappling hook.
Because building is boss.
(I can do that right? 
)
[3+1] You manage to modify the jetpack to be able to run on batteries. Sadly as you didn't have any batteries it's pretty useless for now.( Switching to power mode will work as soon as you plug in the batteries)
"Well, I'm going to check on the clockwork stokers. They seemed pretty annoyed to start with, and I'm pretty sure I just heard some banging sounds up there. Any help would be welcome".
Head up to try and disable the stokers.
You move towards the engine room. The stokers are on the loose: You attack stoker 1[3] vs [5] but he resists the punch. Stoker bot 1 retaliates[4] but you barely manage to jump away[4]. The other bot attempts to hit you[3] but you evade him too[5]. This seems like the correct moment to call for help.
Hilda will land the time machine somewhere heavily concealed - say, a nearby forest - and then drop off the scouting party somewhere where they can infiltrate safely without the airship being risked. Then Hilda will... practice flying evasive manoeuvres.
[3+1]
You fly and prepare to drop of the scout party at the edge of the forest. You can't land there though, since the terrain is too uneven so they'll have to use the ladder. You can also see a somewhat concealed clearing in the middle of the forest. Still, it'll be quite hard to conceal a ship this size.
"Ah, dragons arent as bad as stealth hovertanks - those things pissed me off back at the fall of Belgrade during WWIV. I would really like a closer look, and maybe a ride of one - they have to be sort of tame after all, but not at night. I suspect they have better night vision than us to aim like they just have..."
Suggest scouting the immediate area with a few of my military minded co-timeshifters (short range, wide field settings on my crazygun), and setting up some kind of perimeter, before going dragon hunting seeking tomorrow. They might even be smart!
You climb down the ladder and are now standing at the edge of the forest.
> volunteer to be in a small (one or two man) scouting party. We don't want the whole group wiped out if a dragon or else finds the scouts.
You follow Rhys down the ladder. The airship still waits overhead too see if anyone wants to join the searching team.
