Okay...remember how one of my infiltrators was dating a soldier, trying to turn him into a sleeper?

Despite being listed as dead, that infiltrator and the soldier are still dating O_o;

Um. Less than 1 in Driving. Best Agility is 12. I picked a couple of actors and a locksmith, for Armok's sake. I had no intention of using these guys for combat or fast getaways

None of them are my founder, thankfully. Still, if these guys die they're gonna take a lot of time, loot, and experience with them.

So! I send my squad of 3 awesome infiltrators into the army base. They're all wearing nearly foolproof disguises from repeated infiltrations of various locations, one of them is a reasonably skilled lockpick, and the leader is a master of persuasion and has a map of the place gained from dating a soldier (I was hoping for a sleeper, but this is good too).

My mission: Find out just what exactly is that yellow exclamation mark in the base!

So I find it. It's an armory! I can break in! I do so! I score carbines and a freaking machine gun! Alarms go off?
Fack.

Thankfully, the squad leader simply bluffs her way past every single group of soldiers, including the initial group that showed up when the alarms tripped. They make it to the exit without a single shot fired! They're home free!

Oh wait. They're being chased.
FACK.

None of my squad members are particularly good at driving or with weapons. They're being chased by 3 Humvees, six soldiers in total. Bailing out seems like a bad choice, considering how poorly runnning away on foot has gone in the past (read: none of them have made it). The three do have Army Body Armor, one of them is carrying the machine gun while the other two have carbines. Do they stand a chance fighting or should I risk trying to outrun them in my car?

There's probably a lot of volatile chemicals being worked on in that area. Wide open spaces with low population density are about the safest places to work on stuff like that.

Alrighty, that's cool

So, mutual friendly rivals it is? Just competing to see who's the better soldier?

Alexander is also a soldier of Prixima, at least that's what I attempted to communicate in his bio.

Speaking of, I was wondering if perhaps we could show that Gregor and Alexander knew each other beforehand. Maybe be rivals or something

I find this acceptable. How hostile/friendly of rivals?

Friendly, I suppose, since we're supposed to be comrades in arms (and you're a knight after all). It could either be mutual or one-way, like Kieran's rivalry with Oscar (who is more-or-less oblivious to the whole thing).

What do you think?

Dating dinosaurs...though not the way you might imagine

Is this made by the same people that did the pigeon game?

No idea, sorry.
