tengusaur (02:14:00): Sakihama base, briefing room. Salomon Huffman gathered a bunch of people here to give you a description of the mission at hand. With slides.
tengusaur (02:15:53): Huffman: "48 hours ago, a most worrying prediction came true. The incident from Shin Tanoura repeated itself... Although at a different location."
tengusaur (02:16:07): Click. A slide showing a large, opaque black dome over a city.
tengusaur (02:16:28): Huffman: "This is an image from the town of Tarbha, India."
Meraxa (02:16:40): Ataru: That's... quite a bit away.
peter kampschroeder (02:16:54): Kanae: "Oooh, mysterious..."
tengusaur (02:17:01): Huffman: "Indeed. But this time, we had something that turned out to be an advantage..."
Ginkan SK (02:17:02): Raquel looks for a moment. "I got a bad feeling about this."
Ishikar3 (02:17:03): Tarisa: Not that far from home geographically speaking
TC (02:17:17): Zero sits in a chair backwards, quirking his brow at the slide. "What's that?"
tengusaur (02:17:50): Huffman: "Thanks to a certain man's feeling that this is going to happen, ESUN evacuated the location just in time. No civilians are trapped inside the dome, unlike last time."
Fri Freeman (02:18:08): Walt: "So I am right! I'm not crazy! Well, not entirely , wholly, at least.
cubey@aol.pl (02:18:16): Setsuko watches the presentation, looking very conflicted. She knows who Huffman is talking about... well, Walt just admitted it was him.
cubey@aol.pl (02:18:44): But was it better that his premonition came true, or would it rather be just that, a feeling that did not become reality?
tengusaur (02:18:44): Huffman: "Indeed. Who'd have thought that you were right after all, Schmertz!"
Meraxa (02:18:46): Ataru: You know, the ability to predict these things sounds pretty crazy... but useful! We'd kill for that with so many other enemies.
cubey@aol.pl (02:19:15): Denzel: "Good job. This raises some questions... but for now we need to deal with the dome somehow."
tengusaur (02:19:15): Huffman: "In any case, recently the energy readings from the dome started to spike. I'm sure you can figure out what that means?"
Meraxa (02:19:32): Ataru: Something's coming...
Aero (02:20:01): Willis: "So you want us there waiting to deal with whatever comes out?"
tengusaur (02:20:09): Huffman: "Exactly! Soon, something will come out of the dome again. I wonder what will it be this time?"
tengusaur (02:20:25): Huffman: "Not necessarily deal. For now, just watch."
cubey@aol.pl (02:20:36): Toby: "Not much choice of it being friendly this time, is there? Virgolas are still all banged up."
Meraxa (02:20:46): Ataru: Well, guess a sniper can be used for reconaissance...
tengusaur (02:21:00): Huffman: "A parimeter around the dome has been established. If the creatures breach it, only then attack."
TC (02:21:25): Zero: "Sit and wait for the action? Ugh."
Meraxa (02:21:35): Ataru: Alright, let's go! Miss Setsuko can ride with me if she wants. Or perhaps Miss Ootori? *Ataru looks around all eager*
Ishikar3 (02:21:44): Yuuya: "Well better than being surprised like the first time.
tengusaur (02:21:51): Huffman: "Don't you sit and wait for the action most of the time already? Ah, and one more thing."
cubey@aol.pl (02:22:05): Setsuko: "Thank you, but.. Virgola unit 3 can move on its own, really Ken-kun."
peter kampschroeder (02:22:06): Kanae: "Oh, I have my own conveyance. Though, if you think you can handle me..."
Fri Freeman (02:22:20): Walt: "Maybe, just maybe, puppies and kittens will come out next?"
Aero (02:22:23): Willis: "There is a lot to handle..."
cubey@aol.pl (02:22:25): She does not sound comfortable, probably because while it's true that the mobile suit can move, it is still damaged and not operating at 100%.
tengusaur (02:22:44): Huffman: "The last encounter has shown that what works best against these creatures is fire. Special weaponry has been prepared for your units. Have fun with it! He he."
cubey@aol.pl (02:22:48): Denzel: "Yeah, good luck with that. We'll see when we get there."
Meraxa (02:22:48): Ataru: K-Ken-kun?! And uh... m-maybe, Miss Ootori?
peter kampschroeder (02:23:19): Kanae giggles slightly.
TC (02:23:23): Zero: "Fire huh...I think I got some tricks."
cubey@aol.pl (02:23:24): (Ataru-kun, derp)
tengusaur (02:23:49): Huffman: "Any questions? If not, then a shuttle is already waiting."
Aero (02:24:08): Willis: "To India then!"
Fri Freeman (02:24:22): Walt: "Are the city insured against fire?"
Fri Freeman (02:24:34): (that's a question)
Ishikar3 (02:25:00): Yuuya: "Well I doubt it was insured against black hell domes."
cubey@aol.pl (02:25:13): Denzel: "On the double, team. Go go go!"
cubey@aol.pl (02:25:27): Denzel: "There'll be plenty time to talk while in transit."
Meraxa (02:25:30): Ataru: Ooooh, new heat weaponry. Miss Ootori, we can go over the specs! I wonder if we'll have the Quetzal Burn 4k. It has an estimate usage time of 50 hours per... *he begins to rattle on*
tengusaur (02:26:02): What awaits you inside the shuttle, in addition to free space for your mecha, is the weaponry mentioned.
tengusaur (02:26:28): Flamethrowers of various sizes, fire bombs for throwing, and incendiary ammo for all kinds of weapons your units use.
Ishikar3 (02:26:50): Yuuya: "I guess the R&D boys have been busy. This should be useful in the future."
cubey@aol.pl (02:26:52): Toby: "Looks like the motto of the day is..."
cubey@aol.pl (02:26:54): "Kill it with fire"
TC (02:27:23): Zero: "...ha."
Aero (02:27:25): Willis: "With this much equipment...more like the motto of the week."
peter kampschroeder (02:27:54): Kanae: "Oh, I'm sure we'll find a use for it all...let's see, if I go for the heavy machine gun and some explosives, that should do well..."
tengusaur (02:27:58): As soon as everyone gets on the shuttle, it takes off! But for now you have a while to relax, rearm, and wait until you reach the destination...
Aero (02:28:22): Willis looks over at the damage on the Virgola units.
Aero (02:28:33): Willis: "They really did a number on you guys."
Ginkan SK (02:28:35): Raquel for a moment seems lost in thought before she snaps out of and joins the other. While not one to take the extra weapons this time she doe, fire bombs, she ahs incendiary ammo loaded into her vulcans as well and brings a flame throwere for the moment. She's got her own reserv3es and ways to burn things, but given the nature of what's up? It would be wise to use the technological measures as a way to get more combat time in.
TC (02:29:17): Since it seems designed to be big enough for robots Zero will transform before it takes off entirely so he doesn't imbalance the ship.
cubey@aol.pl (02:29:55): Toby: "Hehe... yeah." His unit 2 stomps around carefully, its leg freshly reattached from the last fight.
Fri Freeman (02:29:56): Walt: "Sigh, it's just usually, you know, heroes save a city then got blamed for collateral damage or something."
peter kampschroeder (02:30:16): Kanae flits about, admiring the weapons and stroking gently the ones that strike her as particularly nice. Ah, the simple pleasures in life...
cubey@aol.pl (02:30:42): Setsuko: "They still operate fine though, please don't worry... will they really blame this on Unity Group? The black dome already appeared and that is the biggest threat."
cubey@aol.pl (02:30:48): She focuses her attention on what Walt said.
peter kampschroeder (02:31:42): Kanae: "Oh, just say it was all my fault~"
tengusaur (02:32:18): The shuttle flies through the sky, taking a few hours to reach its destination... But finally, you see the reddish countryside of India, and a town in the distance. A town whose appearance is heavily distorted by a large, opaque black dome straight in the middle of it.
Ishikar3 (02:32:25): The Argos flight is quick to re-arm with the specialized ammo. Yuuya confirms that the appropriate resupply points have been sent ahead in case the operation turns south while equipping himself with two assault cannons loaded with incendiaries, a shield, and his blade. The other pilots take multiple assault cannons with Stella taking the support assault cannon and a missile rack to use if the case of heavier infestations.
tengusaur (02:32:27): What lies inside the dome, nobody can see.
tengusaur (02:33:15): The shuttle moves in, flying between the eerily empty buildings... The whole place feels unnaturally empty and quiet, in fact.
tengusaur (02:33:40): The only source of life you can see around is a small post on the edge of the town, with several mecha on standby.
peter kampschroeder (02:33:58): Kanae's suited up in William Burroughs, and hefts one of the Tsurugi-standard heavy machine guns over a shoulder. "Oooh, how spooky~"
Aero (02:34:00): Willis: "At least it looks like everyone was evacuated."
TC (02:35:07): Zero: "Doesn't make it any less spooky."
tengusaur (02:35:08): The shuttle lands next to the camp.
tengusaur (02:35:28): ESUN pilot: "Unity Group is here!"
tengusaur (02:35:46): ESUN pilot 2: "Finally, reinforcements. This thing gives me the willies."
peter kampschroeder (02:36:02): Kanae: "Awww, you were all waiting for me! I'm so embarassed..."
Fri Freeman (02:36:25): Walt: "Remembering what happened last time, I hope we're far enough from the dome."
Ginkan SK (02:36:37): The Amazon moves in and it's head nods for Raquel is also nodding in agreement to the second ESUN pilot. "I have to agree with you there."
Meraxa (02:37:11): Gold Four emerges from the shuttle, Ataru slightly disappointed for reasons likely obvious. Still... "Anything happening with the dome right now?"
cubey@aol.pl (02:37:15): Denzel: "What's the situation? Anything moving out there?"
tengusaur (02:37:18): ESUN pilot 1: "We are far eno- oh shit! The readings are getting really high!"
cubey@aol.pl (02:37:30): Denzel: "Looks like we made it right on time!"
Aero (02:37:39): WIllis: "Maybe it was waiting for us."
tengusaur (02:37:41): Indeed, you can see that the surface of the dome is starting to slowly ripple!
Ishikar3 (02:37:44): Yuuya and the Argos flight exit the shuttle and begin noting the resuppy points. Upon hearing the pilots begin to note the spike they scatter with Stella taking a support overwatch position.
TC (02:37:49): Zero: "Ha! Guess we won't be waiting long for the fight."
Meraxa (02:38:41): Ataru: Let's take a look! *Ataru quickly has the Gold Four snap its arm into sniper mode, giving him a scope to look through*
tengusaur (02:38:42): The black ripples get more intense... And now, you can see that something comes out of the dome...
Ishikar3 (02:38:43): Stella: "Well at least they don't keep a lady waiting."
tengusaur (02:38:45): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cyJMHCKsUNg
Meraxa (02:38:53): Ataru: There's... movement.
tengusaur (02:38:55): It looks like... A giant, human hand.
peter kampschroeder (02:38:58): Kanae: "Hey, that's my line."
Meraxa (02:39:09): Ataru: ...Hand! Hand!
tengusaur (02:39:14): A hand emerges from the dome, then an arm, then the rest of the creature...
cubey@aol.pl (02:39:28): Setsuko: "Is it the same as before?"
Ishikar3 (02:39:41): VG: "Well then give it a hand to it's final destination."
tengusaur (02:39:45): The creature looks like a gigantic... Dog. A huge, hairless dog, with a weirdly-colored body.
tengusaur (02:39:46): But...
Meraxa (02:39:57): Ataru: Uh... was 'before' like a giant naked dog?
cubey@aol.pl (02:40:03): "Ugh." No. It's not the same.
tengusaur (02:40:12): Some of its limbs resemble human ones more than anything, giving it a distorted pose.
tengusaur (02:40:19): What else looks more like a human?
tengusaur (02:40:20): Its face.
TC (02:40:30): Zero: "...Okay that's kind of unsettling."
tengusaur (02:40:36): It's sniffing around, its eyes shut tight.
Ishikar3 (02:40:37): Yuuya: "Ugh, reminds me of a bad werewolf movie."
tengusaur (02:41:03): After the first creature, others come out. Some of them resemble dogs, other cats, other even hairless birds...
Meraxa (02:41:18): Ataru: There's... more. All of them some kind of hybrid...
cubey@aol.pl (02:41:23): Setsuko: "This is not a movie. This is real... why is it real?"
tengusaur (02:41:24): With many parts of humans mixed in, giving them unsettling appearance.
tengusaur (02:41:36): Also, some of them are carrying something in their arms...
cubey@aol.pl (02:41:44): Denzel: "Control yourself, Star Three! We can take them on if they try anything funny."
tengusaur (02:41:51): Something that at first seems like elongated, bulbous limbs...
tengusaur (02:42:02): But if you look closer, it's actually...
tengusaur (02:42:06): It resembles fleshy guns.
peter kampschroeder (02:42:08): Kanae: "There are many strange things under the heavens and on the earth, Ms. Ohara. As we both should know."
Meraxa (02:42:09): Ataru: They're... armed?
TC (02:42:39): Zero: "...What do they fire?"
tengusaur (02:42:39): The monsters are walking around, sniffing in the air loudly. They don't seem to be interested in you, maybe because you're far away.
Aero (02:42:50): Willis: "Let's not find out."
Ishikar3 (02:42:52): Yuuya: "Really, way to go universe. Make things more complicated."
Fri Freeman (02:43:10): Walt: "I think... the evacuation wasn't too complete. I bet there are still some dogs and cats around the town."
cubey@aol.pl (02:43:19): Denzel: "Stay away, genoace squad. These things can attack with no provocation."
peter kampschroeder (02:43:23): Kanae: "You know, I had a dog once..."
Meraxa (02:43:34): Ataru: ...Wait, you're saying it copied the animals?!
tengusaur (02:43:35): Instead, the nearby buildings seem to catch their attention. Some of them look at the empty houses curiously, others are plucking road signs and trees from the ground, seemingly for no reason.
Aero (02:43:39): Willis: "Do I want to know what happened to it?"
cubey@aol.pl (02:43:41): Setsuko: "Does that mean the domes are using..."
peter kampschroeder (02:44:20): Kanae: "Oh, don't worry. The world rejoiced at its passing."
tengusaur (02:44:22): One monster picks up an abandoned car, looks at it, then throws it away. The car lands close to where you are.
tengusaur (02:44:32): ESUN pilot: "Shit! Are they attacking?!"
Ishikar3 (02:44:41): Yuuya: "Well that's just peachy. Next thing you know one of those is going to emerge on a BETA hive just to piss us off."
peter kampschroeder (02:44:44): Kanae: "No."
Meraxa (02:44:45): Ataru: No, no, hold fire! They're... looking.
tengusaur (02:44:59): The creature comes in, following the thrown car. Several others follow it.
Meraxa (02:45:15): Ataru: ...And now they're breaching.
cubey@aol.pl (02:45:24): Denzel: "Keep your distance, guys!"
Ishikar3 (02:45:37): Yuuya: "Well looks like dumb chance thrusts them into combat. Should we go weapons free now?"
tengusaur (02:45:38): The monter's creepily human-like head lifts up as it smells in the air loudly. And then, you can hear a strange, distorted voice.
tengusaur (02:45:43): ???: "Good night, dad."
cubey@aol.pl (02:45:52): Setsuko shudders hearing that.
Aero (02:46:05): Willis: "..."
Ishikar3 (02:46:09): Tarisa: "Okay, I used to think BETA were the worst, now I'm questioning that..."
tengusaur (02:46:16): The monsters are moving in closer! They're breaching the parimeter!
tengusaur (02:46:25): ESUN pilot: "Damnit! I'm opening fire!"
Aero (02:46:31): Willis: "Here they come..."
Ishikar3 (02:46:37): Yuuya: "Well then let's show them a warm welcome everyone."
peter kampschroeder (02:46:38): Kanae: "It's not that creepy...Oh, I suppose duty calls."
cubey@aol.pl (02:46:51): Toby: "Permission to fire, Chief? Just so you know, I'll do it anyway, but it'd be nice not to act against orders."
Meraxa (02:46:51): Ataru: Switching on flamethrowers...
tengusaur (02:47:07): Enemies: Cat monster x8, Dog monster x9, Bird monster x11

Allies: Genoace x6

Initiative order: Kanae, Walt, Yuuya, Setsuko, Ataru, Willis, Raquel
tengusaur (02:47:13): (allies available for support)
tengusaur (02:47:19): (Kanae, Walt, Yuuya go)
cubey@aol.pl (02:47:30): Denzel: "Load explosive bullets for the Carver!"
tengusaur (02:47:49): Initiative order: Kanae, Walt, Yuuya, Setsuko, Ataru, Willis, Raquel, Zero (sorry TC)
Fri Freeman (02:48:50): Walt: "How am I a dad already? 8th genoace team, open fire!"
Ishikar3 (02:49:15): Yuuya: let's get a front line for now just in case they have surprises for us.
peter kampschroeder (02:49:30): *"I'll be in a support role, if you don't mind." William Burroughs flies up and off to the left flank, and opens fire on the monsters with its shiny new machinegun and incindiary rounds. It'll try to herd the monsters towards the others.+
Meraxa (02:49:33): Ataru: Any nice tall buildngs around?
Fri Freeman (02:49:57): With that, the three genoace in Walt's team moves forward and sprays fire toward the nearest monster.+
Fri Freeman (02:50:29): Walt: "Please don't think of barbeque, please don't think of barbeque...."
Ishikar3 (02:50:53): *Yuuya moves in to the lead with his shield up and his assault cannon up. Firing in controlled bursts into the nearest foes. VG and Tarisa take up flanking positions behind him while Stella watches for any surprises to open fire on them before it becomes an issue.+
tengusaur (02:51:20): The creatures are hit by long bursts of incendiary rounds and three of them catch on fire, while the rest of them are rounded up closer together! They run around maniacally for a while before turning to crisps. However, you cannot pay too much attention to that, because...
cubey@aol.pl (02:51:42): Toby: "It's working!"
tengusaur (02:52:48): A large group of the monsters is aiming their guns, holding them in distinctly non-human ways! Blood bursts from the end of the fleshy weapons - and together with blood, suddenly beams fire! Kanae, Yuuya and Walt, and their squads - each is targetted by two or three enemies! (react y'all)
tengusaur (02:52:51): ???: "Pew pew pew."
tengusaur (02:53:01): (Setsuko, Ataru, Willis, go)
Aero (02:54:00): Willis: "They're actually firing beams from those."
peter kampschroeder (02:54:05): *Kanae: "...Zip zip zip!" and Kanae starts pulling off aerial manuevers to dodge those pesky laser beams. Dogfight, go!+
cubey@aol.pl (02:54:29): Denzel: "What the fuck?"
cubey@aol.pl (02:54:36): Denzel: "Light them up, as many targets as possible!"
tengusaur (02:54:42): Kanae's armor gets grazed by the first, most surprising beam, but it doesn't deal much damage, and she dodges the rest easily.
Aero (02:54:50): Willis: "You don't have to tell me twice."
Fri Freeman (02:55:08): Walt: "Gah, everyone, skedaddle!" Walt'ss genoace taem scatters to three direction., jumping low to the ground.+
Aero (02:55:29): * Strahlend charges into the fray with it's heavier flamethrower and unleashes a torrent of flames at the closest monster. +
cubey@aol.pl (02:55:46): Setsuko: "One shot per target... please, stop this!"
Ishikar3 (02:55:48): *Yuuya and his wingmen fire off their boosters, taking to the air and scatter back leaving a clear area for Stella to open fire with a support barrage.+
cubey@aol.pl (02:56:21): *The Virgolas fire broadly, not aiming very well but rather focusing on hitting as many targets as possible with incendiary bullets.+
tengusaur (02:56:22): One of Walt's wingmen gets hit by a beam and suffers medium armor damage! But the rest of the squad manages to escape safely. Yuuya and company escape as well, Stella scorching - but not fully burning down - one of the bird-like monsters.
Fri Freeman (02:56:31): Walt: "Are they... saying pew pew pew?"
tengusaur (02:56:39): The bird monster screeches, despite having a human-like face.
tengusaur (02:56:52): ???: "I did good today..."
Ishikar3 (02:57:48): Yuuya: "You know I'm almost tempted to turn off my external microphones fighting these guys..."
Meraxa (02:58:07): Ataru: Ah, here we go. *Ataru finds himself quite a good building. Lots of elevation, good sighting... But despite mentioning the flamethrower, he'll actually stick to incendiary ammo. Live ammo is a bit off the usual, but..* Gotcha! *For a sniper, its no big deal. He aims for the birdies!+
peter kampschroeder (02:58:11): Kanae: "But then you'd miss out on their screams!"
Ishikar3 (02:58:36): Stella: "Most people wouldn't consider that a bad thing Kanae."
tengusaur (02:59:05): The Virgolas' unfocused shooting sets half a dozen more creatures on fire, burning parts of their bodies. This lets Willis move in and burn down three already-damaged monsters into charcoal!
tengusaur (02:59:31): Ataru shoots down two bird-like monsters, one of them already wreathed in flames...
cubey@aol.pl (02:59:45): Denzel: "Keep it up!"
Ishikar3 (02:59:59): VG: "Huh, figures this is a lot easier with the right ammunition."
tengusaur (03:00:17): However, now a monster that's on fire is rushing towards Willis, trying to grab his machine! And two more are approaching from the back and slamming with their twisted limbs, seemingly at random!
Aero (03:00:19): Willis: "How did it go last time?"
tengusaur (03:00:32): As for the Glory Stars and Ataru...
tengusaur (03:01:09): Suddenly they find themselves the target of more fire! But these time it comes from the direction of other creatures than before - their guns don't shoot beams, but rather physical bullets, made from flesh and bone!
tengusaur (03:01:19): ???: "Bang. Bang bang."
tengusaur (03:01:26): (Willis, Ataru, Setsuko react)
tengusaur (03:01:32): (Raquel, Zero, go)
cubey@aol.pl (03:02:04): Setsuko: "Agh... aah!" *She tries to back off, but Virgola unit 3 gives - its stabilizer fails and the whole mobile suit falls down on its back.+
Meraxa (03:02:19): Ataru: They're... They're body guns! *Ataru tries to take cover with the building beneath him+
cubey@aol.pl (03:02:22): Too much damage from before. Damage that is impossible to repair on short notice... or possibly ever.
tengusaur (03:03:18): Ataru hides behind the building, which provides good cover for now... But the bullets completely wreck it! A few of them splatter on his shield in bloody stains, but none penetrate it.
Ginkan SK (03:03:20): Raquel "let's not give God any ideas Yuuya. Engage them at range if you can!" Raquel is already moving to bring her flame thrower to draw a bead on the beasts. She's shuddering at this whole affair, but if her mother's done one good thing is she's .. hardened up enough. "... The beta just are mindless and want to eat everything in sight. Don't lose your focus do not hesitate!" She moves in to back up the ESUN pilot and brings the flamer on line. "Wanna turn up the heat?" She then lets the flames lose trying to do what she can to cover the Genoaces and keeps the flames up. "BY FIRE BE PURGED! BACK TO THE HELL THE SPAWNED YOU!" Yup she's very purge happy today, from the looks of it.
Ginkan SK (03:03:22): +
Ishikar3 (03:04:24): Yuuya: "And what have you seen that indicates these things aren't just as mindless?"
Aero (03:04:51): * Unlike the others Willis stands his ground and instead works some sort of magic on the flamethrower to increase it's output before firing it to devour both the bullets and the monster.+
Ishikar3 (03:04:54): Yuuya: "We still know about as much about the BETA's goals and motivations as we don with these things."
TC (03:05:11): *Zero preps himself, both of his hands catching on fire as he launches towards the birds swinging explosive punches into the meaty creatures. "Have a taste of my Big Bang!"+
Meraxa (03:05:20): Ataru: Can we just agree they're creepy all the same?!
tengusaur (03:05:43): Raquel does a good job at keeping the attention of the creatures away from the Genoaces, as her flames sets one of the monstrosities on fire! A few nearby ones grab a nearby building and tear it down, throwing its pieces right at her unit with great strength! (react)
Ishikar3 (03:05:59): #Raquel
tengusaur (03:06:02): (approved)
tengusaur (03:06:51): Zero punches right into two of the fiery monsters, pretty much exploding one of them and setting the other one on fire! The creature on fire tries to grab him and set him on fire as well, not to mention rend him with its claws! (react)
tengusaur (03:07:05): ???: "Boxing..."
Ishikar3 (03:07:19): *Seeing the beast rear back to throw the building pieces Stella opens fire with her support cannon to throw off the beast's aim. As a precaution she also fires a pair os missiles into the building proper to push the masonry further off target.+
Ginkan SK (03:08:08): Raquel is forced to stop bathing things in flames and evade, with the support fire from Stella she should be all right.
tengusaur (03:08:49): Willis' effort sets one more monster on fire, completely incinerating it - and he gets rid of some of the bullets as well! However, two of the creatures still pummel his machine, leaving a few visible dents on it... And Setsuko's dodge attempt is completely unsuccessful, and the bullets rattle on Virgola's armor, damaging it heavily and leaving bloodstains on it!
TC (03:09:07): Zero: "Hah! More into kung fu-" *Zero moves to grab the creature coming at him without getting too burned then twists to throw it down hard towards the ground+
Aero (03:09:30): Willis: "Crap..."
Ishikar3 (03:09:40): Yuuya: "Crap, alright Stella, Tarisa, VG, get some covering fire on Setsuko, I'll go in and get her out."
tengusaur (03:10:15): The Ultraman manages to throw the monster to the ground, with a sickening sound of bones breaking! But it starts to regenerate its damage already... Also, he got licked by flames somewhat.
Ginkan SK (03:10:21): +
TC (03:10:39): Zero: "Che, guess I gotta put more juice on it..."
tengusaur (03:11:32): Stella shoots most of the down the barrage of rubble going into Raquel's direction, letting the latter avoid the rest.
tengusaur (03:11:57): The Genoaces, thanks to a combined effort, burn down one of the creatures. Hey, they are equipped with flamethrowers too.
tengusaur (03:12:05): ESUN pilot 1: "Keep on the pressure!"
tengusaur (03:12:23): Pilot 2: "Easy to say! Those things are just wrong...!"
Ishikar3 (03:12:30): Stella: "Careful, don't go in too deep, leave the heavy lifting to us."
tengusaur (03:12:32): ???: "Ha ha... Hello..."
tengusaur (03:12:39): Pilot 2: "Ayegh!"
tengusaur (03:12:52): (Kanae, Walt, Yuuya, go)
tengusaur (03:13:13): Enemies: Cat monster x6, Dog monster x5, Bird monster x5
Ishikar3 (03:15:56): *As the Argos flight opens fire to clear the area around Setsuko Yuuya boosts into the fray, using 120mm rounds and his shield's reactive armor to push away any foes that cross his path he stops by Setsuko's unit and drops his assault cannon to free a hand to grab the damaged unit with to begin pulling her back behind the main lines.+
Fri Freeman (03:16:20): Walt: "Lucky that our mechs doesn't have any nose. I can't imagine how it smells out there."
Meraxa (03:16:56): Ataru: Well, some might not be wholly sealed in their current state...
peter kampschroeder (03:16:58): *Kanae: "Having trouble down there?" Regardless of the reply, Kanae opens fire with her machinegun on three of the bird monsters; once she's drawn their aggro she'll pull them up higher into the sky and further from the rest of the group. It should help relieve the pressure everyone else is having.+
TC (03:17:22): Zero: "Unpleasant. It smells REALLY REALLY REALLY unpleasant."
TC (03:17:38): Zero: "Like...you know, burning bodies would."
cubey@aol.pl (03:17:53): Toby: "Don't worry Setsuko! We're here, everything's fine!"
Meraxa (03:17:58): Ataru: ...You have my sympathies.
cubey@aol.pl (03:18:10): The two other members of Glory Stars try to make their way towards Star Three as fast as possible.
cubey@aol.pl (03:18:26): At the same time, there's some quiet whimper heard from unit 3's cockpit.
Fri Freeman (03:18:31): Walt: "Pull her back, we'll cover you! Please stay alive everyone." Walt and his team stands up and stands in front of Yuuya and Setsuko, giving them covering fire with, well, fire...+
tengusaur (03:20:10): Yuuya pushes through the enemy horde, breaking the limbs and even spines of several of the monsters - but despite that, they are getting up on their feet, still trying to walk as good as they can! Walt's squad's fire burns down one of them, though...
tengusaur (03:21:14): But now, the broken-limbed creatures leap towards them, trying to simply bludgeon them with their weapons in melee, swinging their broken arms like limp marionettes on strings! (Walt and Yuuya react)
cubey@aol.pl (03:21:26): # Yuuya
Aero (03:21:28): #
tengusaur (03:21:30): (approved)
tengusaur (03:22:23): Kanae sets the three bird creatures on fire, making them screech in rage. They pursue her, trying to take off into the skies in a bizarre parody of flight, and firing their beams as they jump up and down! (react)
tengusaur (03:22:27): ???: "Pewpewpewpew!"
cubey@aol.pl (03:22:27): "No! S... stay back!" *From prone position, Virgola unit 3 nevertheless fires a burning bullet straight into the charging abomination.+
tengusaur (03:22:43): (Setsuko, Ataru, Willis can move)
Ginkan SK (03:23:15): Raquel "Keep them at ranged give us support we'll take the ... brunt of it!"
tengusaur (03:23:23): Setsuko sets one of the monsters on fire! It falls to the ground and rolls away, flailing its limbs.
Ishikar3 (03:23:23): *Yuuya relies on his wingmates and the others nearby to assist with keepin the path clear, using his shield to keep Setsuko covered and to beat back the closest enemies with the reactive armor charges as he needs to.+
cubey@aol.pl (03:23:24): Toby: "You guys are in for it now." With a flick of a switch, he lights up the Barley Scythe.
Fri Freeman (03:23:34): "Gah!" Walt "team, stay behind me!" raises his genoace's shield to block the melee attack.
Meraxa (03:24:23): Ataru: Miss Ootori! *Ataru, leaping back as the building beneath him collapsed - structural damage didn't help - aimed his rifle upwards, hoping to intercept the bird monsters before they might reach the rather tall lady+
Aero (03:24:32): * Well since that was taken of Willis gets back to the job at hand. Using an oversized flamethrower on strange horrifying flesh creatures. +
cubey@aol.pl (03:24:46): Toby: "Take this!" *Virgola unit 2 charges forward, the beam blade held low... and as it approaches the abominations, the scythe goes up in a swing - aiming to bisect those creatures not just with the attack, but also with a resulting shockwave.+
peter kampschroeder (03:24:52): *Kanae engages in a DOG FIGHT, zipping around and shooting the birds whenever an opprotinity presents itself-with either of her guns, the railgun bow or the incindiary machinegun. Some of her bullets turn at sharp angles to strike her prey...+
tengusaur (03:26:23): Yuuya and Walt's squad hide behind their shields, and while this defense holds, they are slowly getting pushed back and their shields take quite a beating! But Yuuya manages to pretty much blow one of the attackers to bits, and Toby's energy blade cuts through two of them, the halves falling to the ground messily!
tengusaur (03:26:34): The bits of the monsters are still moving, trying to crawl towards each other...
cubey@aol.pl (03:26:52): Toby: "You just don't give up, do you!"
Ginkan SK (03:27:18): Raquel "Don't let them reform! BURN THE REMAINS!"
tengusaur (03:27:41): Between Kanae's return fire and Ataru's opportunity shots, one of the bird mnsters is set on fire and incinerated! Kanae dodges the incoming beams,
Fri Freeman (03:28:10): Walt:"Well, at least this is a straight up extermination mission where we came prepared."
tengusaur (03:28:29): Willis burns down one, already damaged monster, and sets a few more on fire - but they're still moving, and trying to dogpile him now! (react)
tengusaur (03:28:34): ( Raquel, Zero, go)
tengusaur (03:29:37): Suddenly Ataru sees two creatures looking towards him from below... And they jump, each trying to grab one leg of Gold 4! (react)
Meraxa (03:31:00): Ataru: Ah! No, no! *Ataru will try to slow his descent, but now's the time he switches on the arm mounted flamethrower! And hopes that the melting point on Gold Four's legs is pretty high!+
Aero (03:31:32): * The only way to solve this problem is to use more fire. +
tengusaur (03:31:41): Good news - Ataru sets the monsters on fire, stopping them from grabbing his feet. Instead they drop down to the ground heavily.
tengusaur (03:32:01): Bad news - Ataru partially melts his own feet. And the creatures, even though they're on fire, are still moving...
peter kampschroeder (03:32:44): #ataru
tengusaur (03:32:59): (he's not under attack right now)
tengusaur (03:33:40): Willis' fire manages to push the monsters away... But after falling, they get up on their feet, still on fire.
TC (03:33:49): *Zero moves to attempt some more fire boxing on another one of the creatures. Rushing for the closest that wasn't get incinerated by his allies and rapidly punching.+
Aero (03:34:14): Willis: "They really don't give up."
Ginkan SK (03:34:32): Raquel lowers the flame thower letting the handle hang away as she readis her hands dropping into a combat stance of some sort she takes a deep breath and she calls out. "Fire Dancer!" RAquel breaks into a rpaid series of movement as she's using her own Ki via the amps to cause pillars of flames to form about her and move towards the enemy ranks also hopefully catching the still moving bits. She her self moving and is clearly almost dancing as she directs the fire!+
Meraxa (03:34:57): Ataru: If I had to honestly guess, they either have a high resilience to pain, or their nervous system isn't built to handle it at all, so they feel nothing.
Meraxa (03:35:05): Ataru: I mean, considering their size despite their flesh...
tengusaur (03:35:15): Zero punches a hole through one of the creatures and incinerates what's left of its remains, burning it down! Raquel also burns two already damaged enemies...
tengusaur (03:36:09): But now, they find themselves surrounded by half a dozen of these monsters, which fire fleshy machineguns at them from several directions! They even hit each other with some bullets, but don't seem to care. (react you two)
tengusaur (03:36:19): The Genoaces are caught in the fire as well!
Meraxa (03:36:36): #Zero
tengusaur (03:36:43): ???: "Rrrrrrrr. Bang bang bang."
tengusaur (03:36:48): (approved)
Ginkan SK (03:36:57): (Me?)
tengusaur (03:37:12): (yes, you react)
TC (03:37:35): *Zero acts quick, spinning as he brings up a green energy shield in a cylinder around him, hoping that covers him- he will also extend it if need be for Raquel if she's close enough.+
tengusaur (03:37:38): (Kanae, Walt, Yuuya can move)
Aero (03:37:50): #Raquel?
Meraxa (03:37:54): Ataru: Hey, lay off the big guy! *Ataru turns his rifle to pick out some of the enemies around the Ultraman - which is, in a way, a much easier target to spot, and thus avoid+
tengusaur (03:38:01): ESUN pilot: "Ah shit! Evasive action! Eva-"
tengusaur (03:38:06): (approved)
Ginkan SK (03:38:28):

Raquel has more fire coming her way but she was serious she attempt to draw fire with her incendiary loaded head vulcans trying to get the beast attention from the Genoaces while trying to dodge. She's not looking to damage them but draw them after her.




Ginkan SK (03:38:30): Ack
tengusaur (03:41:03): (waiting for the results of this combined defense until I see what Willis does)
Aero (03:41:09): * Willis draws Quicksilver and tosses it at the monsters attacking Raquel. At the very least he could throw off their aim by cutting them apart. +
peter kampschroeder (03:41:29): *Kanae continues laying into the bird monsters all up and dogfighting with her, but she'll try to spare a second or two to send some bolts at those monsters menacing Ataru as well. The kid needs to pay better attention...+
tengusaur (03:42:23): Zero manages to get only pummeled a tiny bit by those shots, thanks to his energy shield. It offers some help to his allies too.
Ishikar3 (03:42:25): *Having pulled Setsuko clear Yuuya turns her over to the rear-line recovery teams and grabs a replacement cannon and a sword before boosting back into the fray. Stella sets her missiles to a wide barrage and contributes their blasts to the defense effort while VG and Tarisa focus on the damaged enemies to finish off.+
tengusaur (03:43:07): Raquel, however, even with support, is still the main target of the enemy attack, and the shots cause noticable damage to Amazon's armor, as well as bloody red splashes all over it!
Fri Freeman (03:43:15): Walt: "Hey you guys! get away from there!" Walt yells toward the other genoaces
tengusaur (03:43:24): Most of the Genoaces manage to dodge, but one of them is riddled with holes and collapses limply.
tengusaur (03:44:01): Ataru's shots throw away two of the monsters, leaving big holes in their chests, and Willis cuts through three more. But all of these pieces still move...
Fri Freeman (03:44:50): Walt: "Damnit! team, finish those!" Walt and his team jumps in to finish the downed monsters with their flame thrower.+
Meraxa (03:45:31): Ataru: Aaaagh. These things either don't have dedicated organs, or their whole body is, or... Arrrrrrgh. *His head hurts*
tengusaur (03:45:41): The bursts of fire and fiery shots launched by the Argos Flight, and Kanae, and Walt's team, result in a horrible spectacle...
tengusaur (03:46:01): The creatures you targetted are burnt pretty much to coal, like before.
tengusaur (03:46:06): But those coaly remains?
tengusaur (03:46:40): They are still moving. In fact, they resemble the same creatures they were before, just covered in a layer of horrible, black, burnt armor.
Aero (03:47:11): Willis: "Still..."
Ishikar3 (03:47:12): Yuuya: "Okay universe, you can stop being an asshole any time you want now."
tengusaur (03:47:46): Still on fire, they leap forward! Argos Flight and Walt's team are targetted! One of the bird monsters even manages to jump high enough to reach Kanae, its arms shuddering as it flaps! (all three of you react)
Fri Freeman (03:48:02): Walt: "Oh brother..."
tengusaur (03:48:03): (Ataru, Willis, Raquel, go)
tengusaur (03:48:17): ESUN pilot: "What the fu..."
tengusaur (03:48:43): ???: "Eat your greens..."
Fri Freeman (03:48:45): Walt raises his shield and continues spewing fire toward the approaching enemy. It worked before!+
Ishikar3 (03:48:51): Yuuya: "Rear echelon forces fall back, they've adapted."
tengusaur (03:49:58): Bad news Walt, your fire seems to only fuel the monster's fire! It smashes into your Genoace, throwing it back, melted and heavily damaged!
Meraxa (03:50:16): Ataru: ...This might...! *Ataru suddenly strikes up an idea, pulling one of the fire grenades Gold Four tempoarily had from its 'belt' region. The machine flies towards the nearest of the creatures, trying to coax it into biting by leaving himself open...&
tengusaur (03:51:45): As Ataru flies past the monster, it suddenly opens its eyes, staring right at him with them - they are pale, almost white, and bloodshot. It opens its mouth, showing way too many teeth, and tries to bite him! (react/continue)
tengusaur (03:51:48): (Zero can move too)
Ishikar3 (03:51:52): *Seeing the flaming foes reform Yuuya holds off on any further incindiary fire instead baiting the nearest foe into a diving attack before spinning to the right and slashing across his foe with his blade. Continuing the spin he slashes the monster that pushed Walt's Genoace back in an attempt to cripple it and buy Walt time to recover.+
Aero (03:51:53): * "Dammit." Once Quicksilver returns to him Willis charges at the monster attacking walt and attempts to cut it apart. &
Meraxa (03:52:34): Ataru: EAT IT! *His command is quite literal in fact, as Ataru thruats the grenade bearing hand into the monster's mouth, pulling the pin. He then lets go, and tries to back away!+
tengusaur (03:53:19): Walt cuts right through the monster in a spray of blood - blades still work! Well, kind of, the halves are still twitching and try to join together to regenerate! Also two more monsters are firing fleshy beam cannons at him from afar. (react/continue)
tengusaur (03:53:23): ???: "Zap zap."
Aero (03:54:15): Willis: "Yuuya you might want to boost jump backwards right now!"
tengusaur (03:54:23): Similarily, Yuuya cuts through another monster, and helps take the pressure off Walt and his squad. But that doesn't come without a cost, and his TSF's armor is partially melted from the intense flames.
Ishikar3 (03:55:08): Yuuya: "Just as soon as the others get back, I've got a bit better odds of escaping than they do."
tengusaur (03:55:22): Ataru takes his hand away, but not perfectly fast enough and there's a tooth stuck in Gold Four's arm when he pulls it out! The creature's head explodes in a gorey mess...
tengusaur (03:55:40): But it's still moving. It has no head, just a bloody stump from which fire spews.
tengusaur (03:56:11): (Raquel and Zero can still move)
Ishikar3 (03:56:39): Yuuya: "So ideas people? Fire seems to be a negative now, Argos flight reload with traditional ammunition, focus on HESH rounds for as long as you have them."
Aero (03:57:26): * At the very last moment Willis jumps out of the way to let those beams hit the severed pieces of the monster he cut up earlier. +
tengusaur (03:57:37): ESUN pilot: "Our weapons are useless! I don't wanna die here!"
Ginkan SK (03:57:40): Raquel isn't doing so well her machine's taken a good deal of damage and she feels it as her suit lights up. She grunts a bit and seems to be not happy. She notices the things don't stop moving are they going to have to turn these things utterly to ash? If so she shall do it as again she unleahse more Ki based fire upon the creatures. "DIE!"
Ginkan SK (03:57:43): +
Aero (03:57:53): Willis: "Great soldiers here..."
Meraxa (03:57:56): Ataru: There's gotta be something though! Muscles can't move without a brain! But I just blew off its head, so wheres the brain?! Up its ass?!
Aero (03:58:00): Willis actually sounds pretty annoyed.
TC (03:58:33): *Zero decides to stop playing around with fire punches and leaps into the air and posing his finger to his forehead gem. "If fire won't do it then we'll just go back to basics!" A green thin beam streaks across into the enemy from the gem.+
tengusaur (03:58:44): Willis jumps away from these beams! They scorch the twitching pieces of meat - some of the smaller ones stop moving, but not the bigger ones.
Ishikar3 (03:59:01): Stella: "Keep it together Ataru, fall back and keep up support fire, command has a proper feed and we're still in this."
peter kampschroeder (03:59:07): *The bird monster that reaches Kanae surprises her; she expected it to be down. She drops the machinegun, and William Burrough's eyes flash red; a dozen slashes appear on the monster, deep cuts aimed at dicing it, and her sword is suddenly in her hand.+
Aero (03:59:20): Willis: "Well that sort of worked..."
tengusaur (03:59:59): Raquel's attack pumps one of the enemies full of ki, causing it to pretty much explode! But the giblets to which it was reduced are still twitching, still moving...
Ginkan SK (04:00:30): (it was actually fire created with her ki D: but that's more creepy I admit)
tengusaur (04:01:13): Zero's beam hits one of the monsters, scorching its upper half! But the lower half, now separated, runs towards him with shaky steps, and then tries to jump at him at the end of its grotesque charge! (react)
tengusaur (04:01:50): Kanae cuts through the attacking bird monster in a spray of blood... But it's uncomfortably hot here, from the fire in which it was wreathed. Also, the halves are still moving.
TC (04:02:00): *The Ultraman spots the lower part coming towards him and leaps to launch a kick straight out in a hopes to smash it away+
tengusaur (04:02:07): Huffman: "All forces, do you hear me?"
Aero (04:02:37): Willis: "Loud and clear!"
Ishikar3 (04:02:43): Yuuya: "We read you, continue command."
tengusaur (04:02:51): Ultraman Zero smashes into the half-monster, breaking its bones with a sickening crunch. It twitches on the ground now, not being able to do anything until it regenerates.
Fri Freeman (04:02:51): Walt: "Yes chief?"
TC (04:03:10): Zero: "What's the news, guy?"
tengusaur (04:03:22): Huffman: "Plan A has failed, which means it's time for Plan B. Evacuate from the area ASAP."
tengusaur (04:03:31): Huffman: "We'll do the same thing as last time."
Aero (04:03:57): Willis: "What happened last time"
peter kampschroeder (04:04:02): Kanae: "If that doesn't work?"
Ishikar3 (04:04:12): Yuuya: "Am I the only one who reads mission reports?"
Fri Freeman (04:04:27): Walt: "Let's pray it works then."
tengusaur (04:04:36): Huffman: "Heh, then we'll have to improvise! But no, seriously, get out of there."
Ishikar3 (04:04:47): Yuuya: "Command can we see about capturing a sample for study, we need more effective weapons if we're going to continue with this."
Aero (04:04:47): Willis: "Apparently so!"
TC (04:04:55): Zero: "Guess it's time to book it."
Meraxa (04:05:09): Ataru: Argh.... retreating then!
Ishikar3 (04:05:27): Yuuya: "Non-flight capable units fall back first, Argos will take the rearguard position and be last in, we're most able to get out on our own if things go south."
tengusaur (04:05:54): Huffman: "Prioritize your survival. The missile will hit very soon."
tengusaur (04:06:13): ESUN soldier: "You don't have to tell me that twice! We're out of here!"
TC (04:06:25): Zero: "Wa-wait are you saying you already launched it!?"
peter kampschroeder (04:06:31): "Rodger that." Well, Kanae will try to retrieve her machine gun before booking it. Go flight units.
Aero (04:06:32): Willis: "Well that explains that."
Ishikar3 (04:06:46): Yuuya: "Then that means we just need to move faster, now get going people."
tengusaur (04:06:49): It's easy to say though - the Genoaces, while trying to escape, are slowly getting surrounded by enemies! And there's still the one shot down, left for dead.
Aero (04:07:01): #?
Ishikar3 (04:07:07): #?
tengusaur (04:07:08): At least the Glory Stars are evacuating on their own... But what about the Genoaces? And you?
tengusaur (04:07:28): (everyone can move now, that can include helping other players and/or NPCs)
TC (04:08:03): Zero moves to evacuate, spraying a few spare beams to help any Genoaces caught up on enemies.
Fri Freeman (04:08:23): 8th Genoace team, fall back! Prioritize your survival!
peter kampschroeder (04:09:00): Kanae: "Ah, do I have to get all flashy again..."
Ishikar3 (04:09:46): *Yuuya and the Argos flight push back taking up their positions as rear guard. VG and Tarisa focus on clearing a path for the Genoaces that can fall back while Stella empties her missile racks into the thickest concentrations and Yuuya moves to recover the fallen pilot, opening his cockpit and using the emergency seat inside to provide transport.+
Aero (04:10:04): * Of course, Willis has to charge in and push back the enemies going after the Genoaces slicing and dicing any that he got near. +
Ginkan SK (04:10:21): Raquel "I can fly so I'll hold for now." She seems tense still as thsee things are going after the Genoaces and she's trying to move to cover them.
Meraxa (04:10:31): Ataru: Come on, come on... *Ataru tries to clear the path ahead, arm mounted flamethrowers warding off flanking foes as his gun snipes anything in front+
peter kampschroeder (04:11:45): *Kanae: "Ah, fine..." There's that glow again, and something strange happens; the rest of the rounds from her newly-recovered machine gun fire all at once, zigging and zagging to hit different targets blocking the mooks.+
Ishikar3 (04:11:52): Yuuya:"As soon as we're clear make sure to get airborne people. We don't need any heroes born today."
tengusaur (04:12:48): Your covering attacks help a lot in taking the heat off the Genoaces and letting them evacuate safely! The monsters are hit by beams, projectiles and blades, attacks which deal a lot of heavy damage to their bloody, fleshy bodies - but from which they are already starting to regenerate. Also, your units suffer damage from return fire in the process.
tengusaur (04:13:27): Yuuya rushes in and cuts out the pilot from the cockpit - he's all bloody, with several wounds in his chest, and seems to be unconscious.
tengusaur (04:13:50): Still, he exhales and coughs up some blood when you grab him, so he's not dead...
Ishikar3 (04:14:23): Yuuya: "Prepare a trauma team upon evac, we have wounded. I have basic treatment tools available and will administer first aid at the first opportunity."
tengusaur (04:15:06): All the Genoaces are safe! Walt's team is safe! The Glory Stars are safe! It's time to scram!
tengusaur (04:15:16): Huffman: "One is already on your way."
Ishikar3 (04:15:54): Yuuya has secured the pilot and take time to accelerate as gradually as he can so as to not compound the pilot's already severe injuries.
Aero (04:16:05): Willis: "Pretty sure that's everyone sooooo let's bail."
Aero (04:16:09): Retreat retreat retreat.
tengusaur (04:16:19): As you escape, you leave the monsters behind...
tengusaur (04:16:35): ???: "Where are you hiding...?"
Ginkan SK (04:17:19): Raquel "I suggest we also keep them in quarineet we don't know if they been infected with something!"
tengusaur (04:17:22): And then, a missile falls on the black dome, resulting in a huge explosion! You're close enough to feel the shockwave from it.
tengusaur (04:18:00): The creatures are engulfed by the bright light of the warhead, and for a while you can't see anything...
tengusaur (04:18:09): And then, it's over.
tengusaur (04:18:24): The abandoned city is gone. The monsters are gone. It's all leveled to the ground.
tengusaur (04:18:29): The dome... Is still there.
TC (04:18:40): Zero: "Tsk...what even was the point of all this."
tengusaur (04:18:41): Its presence is almost taunting you.
Ishikar3 (04:18:49): Yuuya: "Damned bastards are more persistent than the BETA."
Meraxa (04:19:05): Ataru: Yet another enemy like this...
peter kampschroeder (04:19:25): Kanae: "What an odd girl."
tengusaur (04:19:40): Huffman: "Quarantine is a standard procedure here, yes. The medical team should be there in a few minutes."
tengusaur (04:19:52): Huffman: "Did you manage to get a biological sample?"
Ishikar3 (04:21:27): Yuuya: "I believe we have samples from the damaged units sir."
Ishikar3 (04:22:43): Yuuya: "What about you Willis?"
tengusaur (04:22:57): Huffman: "I suppose that's as good as it gets. Luckily tactical warheads work against these creatures..."
tengusaur (04:23:01): Huffman: "For now."
Ginkan SK (04:23:13): Raquel "Right, I was just being sure and I'm not sure and ... yes for now sir. We're lucky..."
Ishikar3 (04:23:34): Yuuya: "Following standard US procedures after the BETA got their footholds then?"
Aero (04:23:45): Willis: "At least we're not using G-Bombs yet"
TC (04:24:16): Zero: "Well knowing point blank annihilation does the job at least."
Aero (04:24:34): Willis: "I'll keep that in mind for next time."
Meraxa (04:24:54): Ataru: ...Ah!
Meraxa (04:24:59): Ataru: I got one, I got one!
tengusaur (04:25:15): Huffman: "Oh?"
Meraxa (04:25:32): Ataru: When I put Gold Four's arm into one's mouth, it pulled off a tooth with it
tengusaur (04:26:09): Huffman: "Ahah! Yes, that'll do... That'll do very well."
tengusaur (04:26:43): A medivac is landing nearby. Not a Unity Group one, the base is too far away for that, but an ESUN one.
tengusaur (04:27:07): It seems this battle went... On one hand, horrible. On the other hand, better than expected, in some ways.
tengusaur (04:27:28): But might there be some unseen consequences?
Ishikar3 (04:27:41): Yuuya: "Well at least we only lost materials, all pilots are confirmed alive correct command?"
tengusaur (04:28:00): Huffman: "That's right."
tengusaur (04:28:09): (battle mastery get!)
tengusaur (04:28:32): For now, it;s time to return to base and see if your findings will result in anything.
tengusaur (04:28:34): MISSION COMPLETE
