Enigma: The professor takes the data. "I will need to read over these documents to get a full understanding of what was going on there. Also, the soldiers you describe sound like a UN special task force. I'm not surprised." Earth: An ecologist tells you that no new anomalies have formed. However, you are rewarded with a "Curtain" helmet (+3 chemical def, +2 PSY def, -1 accuracy, moderate radioactive dust prot.) for your help on the mission. The technician also fiddles with your kevlar vest, adding some fireproof mesh. Hakon: You join a team of 3 ecologists and a mercenary. The team then begins the journey.

Enigma: The professor seems baffled when you begin talking. Before you can finish, he says, "Do you have any documents that are of use? Anything? Also, what did these troops look like?" Earth: A doctor pulls you aside and begins to fix up your legs. He says, "This time it's free, but be careful..."

Kimako: The duty commander tells you, "I don't have any men to spare. Most of them have set off to make contact with the HQ, since the PSY emissions have been disabled." Enigma: You search the bodies, finding a MAC-10 machine pistol (good quality, good condition, 30 round clip [+2 damage, -1 accuracy]), along with 20 9mm rounds! The automated turrets have been covered up again, so you enter the bunker. You are greeted by some ecologists and mercenaries. Hakon: The ecologists ask if you wish to join a small expedition party further into the zone. Earth: The professor says, "I warned you before leaving that it was a dangerous mission." You start to wobble due to your legs being broken.

Enigma: You have no clue on the location of the duty HQ. However, you go to their main base in the sector. Everything looks normal, with patrols walking around and everyone carrying out their business. Earth: As you charge the zombies, you see a light begin flashing on the ecologist bunker, followed by a siren. Suddenly, several panels open up revealing automated turrets, which gun down all of the zombies within seconds.

I'll host if 3 people post their actions.

Was that an intended pun?

(Last roll) Enigma/Earth: You start your trek back to the bunker. As it comes into view, you notice that the mercenaries on the roof are gone, and there are about 20 zombified loners stumbling around the facility.

Earth: You fix the jam, and make it out of the tunnel. The pipe leads out to some nasty little pond, filled with duckweed. Fortunately there is some dry ground to walk on. Enigma: You make it to the end of the tunnel, and exit. You look around, spotting the old factory in the distance. There seems to be a large amount of activity there, with attack helicopters flying around it, and more personnel being unloaded. Varius: You stab the zombie through the head before exiting the pipe.

Earth: Your gun jams, preventing you from firing. Enigma: You manage to get up from the substance before it can do any major damage. However, your whole body is stinging, and it looks like your armor has seen better days. The end of the tunnel is within sight, and it looks as if the metal grate has been removed from the pipe. Varius: Your left hand is limp, so you swing at the zombie with your right hand, but only nick it in the arm. The zombie stumbles towards you, but falls into the acidic substance. It squirms around until it is horribly disfigured by the puddle.

Earth: You fire at the zombies, hitting both of them. One of them seems to be badly wounded from the bullet. -2 9mm Varius: You begin fighting the zombies with your katanas, stabbing one through the head, killing it. However, you completely miss the other one. The final zombie bites your left arm, ripping some tendions. The katana drops out of your left hand. +0.3 melee prof. Enigma: You slip up, falling into the liquid. It start eating away at your skin, and you let out a bloodcurdling scream.

Earth: You retreat towards the light, shooting at the zombies. You manage to get a headshot, but miss the other two. +0.2 handgun prof. -3 9mm Enigma: As you run to the light, you take several shots at the zombies. You hit both of them, but don't do much damage. The zombies are rather far away, but you notice that something is melting your shoes. -2 9mm

Varius: You find some splints along with other various medical supplies, using them to fix up Earth's legs for the time being. As you walk to loot the bodies, 3 of them slowly get up. +0.3 medic Earth: Your legs are patched up by Varius. However, they are going to need some real medical attention soon. Enigma: You take a few shots at the zombies, hitting them all, but they don't seem phased by it. One slowly begins to walk towards you, while the other two go for Varius. -3 9mm rounds

Enigma: The body looks like it isn't going to be getting up anytime soon. You continue down the tunnel, seeing some light towards the other end. There are 4 bodies on the ground, one face-down in the strange slick substance. Varius: You loot the body, finding an audio log along with a medkit. Earth: You shoot down the tunnel, hitting a pipe. There is nothing left on the dead ecologist. -1 9mm

Earth: Karl pulls you further down the tunnel. You hear some moaning coming from even further down. Enigma: You continue further down the tunnel. On the side you notice the corpse of another ecologist, in the fetal position. Varius: You quickly follow the rest of the group. (you don't gain exp for simple moves such as that unless there is a high roll)

Enigma: You tell the rest of the group that the tunnel is all clear. They climb down the ladder, and you help Earth down as well. As everyone enters the tunnel, there is a loud twisting of metal, followed by a crash upstairs. Earth: Enigma helps you down the ladder. Hakon: The moss is taken to the professor, and he thanks you for the help. You are handed 600c as a reward. Varius: You follow the others, but are clumbsy with the knives, learning nothing new.

Earth: You slowly drag yourself to the entrance to the pipe tunnels. Enigma: The headlamp is aimed down to the tunnel, revealing absolutely nothing interesting. You climb down, taking note of various slick green surfaces covering parts of the ground.

I'll host if enough people post their actions.

Here.

ATVing is fun :twss:

I HEAR THAT [cabbage] TOO AND ITS ANNOYING AS HELL. Anyway. 1) Have you ever fired a gun? 2) Have you ever fired a gun, while running? 3) Have you ever fired a gun, after running a mile? 4) Have you ever fired a gun after seeing the person you love most in the world get torn to bits? If you answered no to any of these questions, you survival chance while running around with a gun is <50%. I think that's all of us. 1) If airguns (not airsoft or pump or any of that weak [cabbage], but those using CO2 canisters and go as weapons) count then yes. 3) If the above counts then I think so. 3) No, never had a reason to run for long while carrying my airgun. 4) No, but I'd tear a guy's head of if I as much as see him flirting with the girl I love, I believe I'd be able to avenge her. Airsoft guns don't really count, since you have to take the kickback in account while firing a real weapon, along with various other reasons.

I beg to differ. You think that, while accounting for wind, bullet drop, and the fact that your life is on the line, not to mention the psychiatric implications of hearing the bloodcurdling screams and moans of the walking dead and the sight of their half decomposed bodies, while also potentially having to run or being tired from having run earlier, you could accurately fire a weapon at a target the size of a melon, 200 yards away? If so I salute you. I wasn't talking about sniping, I just meant in general.

I beg to differ.

(ok last roll) Varius: You retreat with Enigma, dragging Earth with you. Earth: You are pulled back by Varius. Enigma: You can't find any way to close the keypad door, so you decide to motion Karl to follow the group. Kimako: You search the tiles, pulling a large on off the floor. Beneath it is a ladder, going down to some pipe tunnels.

Varius: You hide in the shadows. The loud footsteps seem to be getting closer. Earth: You stay at the doorway. Enigma: You run through the door with Kimako. You make your way through a few small rooms until you come to a shower room. There is some water stains streaking towards the corner of the room. Hakon: You wake up, with a doctor next to you. He tells you that the wound was patched up fine.

Enigma: You find the final soldier, injured on the ground. As you walk up to interrorgate him, he puts his pistol to his head, and kills himself. You hear an uproar upstairs, along with some heavy footsteps. Earth: There are no soldiers left. Varius: There are no soldiers left. Hakon: You are knocked out while the doctors work on you.
