Varius tries to get to an elevated, but easy to hide in, area near enough to the outpost to see it in detail. If he can't find a place like that, he tries to go somewhere where he can camouflage well without sacrificing the ability to observe. He begins studying the outpost, weapons ready but hidden so as not to reflect sunlight.

I loot the zombies, taking their clothes and such, then I seach the fire. If there are any tents and/or bunk beds/sleaping bags then I take those too.

Karl runs out of the anomoly and back to the bunker.

I gotta go for dinner, be right back. If either Enigma or I get spotted, I start shooting semi-auto and silenced at the guards.

Earth:

In a frenzy, you run up to the two zombified loners, stabbing one of them, but missing with the pistol. He falls over, and starts squirming on the ground. You manage to hit the other one point blank in the head, killing it instantly. The bag is sitting there, almost mocking you.

 

Varius:

You spot 10 men, all with bulletproof vests, and AK-47s. There is a tower with a heavy mg as well. Nobody spots you.

+0.1 stealth

 

Enigma:

(yea, I did that, just forgot to post it)

You hide with Varius, and spot a barracks, along with a main entrance to the outpost. It is fortified with several sandbag-blockades.

+0.1 stealth

 

Kimako:

You make it to the boneyard with two other Duty members, armed with SCAR assult rifles. You spot 10 dead bodies on the ground.

 

Stephen:

The renegade leader says, "It means that we get a big payday, these things sell for loads on the black market." He hands you 1000c, along with a M-40 Gas mask (+2 chemical, moderate radioactive dust protection). You check the trader, who has:

RPG launcher: 2000c

RPG: 200c each

Basic bulletproof armor: 600c (+1 ballistics protection, +1 melee protection)

AK-47: 1000c

7.62MM rounds (for AK-47): 50c for 5 rounds.

9mm rounds (for 9mm handgun and MP5): 50c for 10 rounds.

MP5: 700c

RGD-5 grenade: 100c each

Grenade launcher attachment (certain weapons): 300c

Hunting knife: 100c

Throwing knife: 50c

"That's all I have at the moment, come back later when I get our fresh shipment"

 

Karl:

You manage to make it out of the anomaly without any problems. You return to the bunker, where the professor eagerly awaits to hear what happened.

+0.2 chemical anomaly expertise

Kimako carefully examines the bodies, and does a little looty looty. She is watching out for any evil things that might just come along.

dude, i said i grabbed it.. whatever. i lean down and cut the live ones throught, then take the bag.

Enigma and Varius remain in position, analyzing the guards patrol route. He then watches the tower to see any anomaly in the guards behevior, or look for a blind spot which cannot be seen from the tower.

Karl tells the proffesor and shows him the artifact.

I offer to sell my two shotguns and buckshot for an AK47 and as many rounds as that will get me - considering the Renegade's have double the "points" in weaponry than armour.

 

After that, I ask the leader if there's anything that needs doing, preferably combat work. I don't wait around, if he says no, I run off, heading inwards towards the centre of the Deadzone place thingy.

Varius waits a little longer, making sure he sees everything there is to see, before crawling away until he's out of side and returning to the Duty outpost.

Kimako:

Before you can examine the bodies, the ground starts to shake slightly. The two guards with you start running towards the compound, yelling for you to follow. Your geiger counter starts slightly ticking.

 

Earth:

You finish the last zombie off, and take the bag. Before you can loot the bodies, your geiger counter starts ticking, and the ground begins to rumble.

 

Enigma/Varius:

The outpost is surrounded by wooden palisade walls, and the main entrance is the only way in. The guard tower doesn't have a view of the backside, however. You continue to examine, but are interrupted by your geiger counters, which begin to tick. The ground then starts shaking violently, and you notice that the guards are all running towards the barracks.

 

Karl:

As you show the professor the artifact, the ground begins to shake. Everybody suddenly begins to panic, and you see ecologists and mercs running into the bunker. The professor gets on an intercom, and shouts, "Everybody find cover, I repeat, everybody find cover!"

 

Stephen:

You purchase an AK-47 (average quality, good condition, 30 round clip), along with 60 rounds for trading in the shotguns. You approach the renegade leader, who says he has a mission for you. Before you can talk, the ground starts rumbling, and the renegade leader runs and slams down a button. An air raid siren goes off, and you can hear a voice echoing throughout the valley, warning people to take cover.

geiger??..... me no no wtf that is. elaborate. okay, i find a place to hide that isnt a crevase in a rock face.

A geiger counter is a device which detects radiation.

 

Enigma runs, or grabs a vehicle in the confusion, and gets to the duty barracks ASAP.

Varius removes his camo, then runs up to the Freedom men asking for refuge, dropping his weapons on the ground and removing the arm sheathes.

 

"Tell the Duty commander that I'll get back as soon as the danger's done, Enigma." Varius whispers before running forwards.

Karl gets to cover and grabs his Mp5 and sets it to full auto.

oh... maybe i shouldnt have picked that bag up.. maybe?

Kimako runs back to the barracks thingy, and asks the leader what the hell is going on. After she is cleared to leave by the leader, then she heads back and examines/loots the bodies.

I, uh, take cover, following the leader. During/after the [thing I forgot the name for] I ask the leader about it, and then seem surprised when I seem less affected than everyone else (hurrrr). Then I go do the mission.

Earth:

You manage to find a cave, but can hear growling coming from deeper inside. The ground is shaking wildly now, and you can barely stand up.

 

Kimako:

You figure you don't have enough time to get back to the barracks, so you run to the compound at the boneyard with the other men. The sky starts turning a blue-green color, and strange lights resembling the aurora begin to form. One of the men falls over from the shaking, but you are all safely inside the building.

 

Karl:

You are inside the bunker, so you figure that you don't need your MP5 out. The ground is wildly shaking now, and a few ecologists and mercs come running in the bunker.

 

Enigma/Varius:

You both end up running directly into the Freedom camp, and take cover in the barracks with the rest of them. They don't seem happy to see you, but they let you in.

 

Stephen:

You are already inside the warehouse, so you are safe enough. Through the violent shaking the leader (barely) makes out your next mission. "Once this radioactive blowout is finished, I need you to oversee an arms deal between my boys and some loners. If any funny business comes up, kill the loners without hesitation."

uhm... i go out of the cave, hoping i cansee what will happen.

"Who are you people? What's going on?"

Karl watches outside for something to happen. He asks the professor if he has any idea what is happening.

Enigma sits in a corner until the blowout is over, before immediately leaving for the Duty barracks.

(Ross, do you think it would work to try and infiltrate the Freedom outpost?)
