Adwarf, what exactly is your plan because I was hoping to start the battle next turn as in pause at all the ships in the air and 1st shot has just impacted

Ok, this is probably the most purty turn I've done anyway in answer to areyoua's concerns there are measures in place to prevent meta-gaming but obviously these aren't perfect, I'd probably prefer you didn't head down either of your route's though simply in the interests of keeping this game as fun as possible. Obviously I don't want to enforce this so I'm just giving advice but yeah, the odds are stacked against you and the game is going to keep getting harder and harder as the story plays out so you guys will have to get smarter if you want to survive the next blows.

Everyone stands around clumsily not really knowing what to say with a large audience staring at them, Adwarf speaks for them in the end "I will stand, and fight with you against whatever comes no matter what obstacle it is, and I will no longer allow those who remain in this world be crushed under the foot of those looking to exploit them. I will stand, and fight to the last breath, only death will stop me." A few people nod supportively in his direction, Mason talks a bit more and people soon disperse to prepare for the inevitable.

As the sun sets Pyro converses with Mason "To be honest I don't know what our odds are, they've got an air fleet just as capable as ours, if not better, I received word from them earlier they want to rendezvous with us tomorrow at 1400 hours, presumably to launch the assault against the bandits they fabricated, that's going to be our best time to strike, if we can have the fleet in the air as they approach and fire the first shot we'll hopefully gain the advantage, from there though our firing capacity is going to be greatly reduced and I'll be relying on you and the others to fight on foot and in the air."

"I want you to choose three men to help in the assault in your aircraft and another to accompany Jack who will be riding in one of our blimps, whilst the others try to destabilize Abu Merci by sabotaging the balloons and propellers I want you too infiltrate their command center and attempt to gain control of the habitat and demand surrender before returning back, with any luck as those drones have helped us once they'll do the same again. After that well, maybe it'll be time to part ways" Mason stood up and picked up a strange looking device from behind him, "If you succeed this will be your reward. Old tech, this button here when pressed releases a kind of shock-wave, it fries up old tech within a radius of about ten meters, apparently it used to be known as an EMP." The meeting concludes and before heading down to Hope you look through your binoculars at Abu Merci, it almost looks serene there hanging in the sky but a thought lingers in your head - in less than twenty-four hours it will become a battleground.


It's just a few hours after the meeting and all the members of Hope are aboard, some arguing takes place but no more than usual, for the most part everyone is just stressed. Zako nervously tries to open a drone up from behind a bullet-proof screen one of the eingereers aboard Machu Pichu let him borrow, after opening it and engaging the firing mechanism Zako began to probe the machine's insides. Opening what he thought was the drone's battery pack laughs, "Hah, no wonder they always bloody short-circuit, there's so little scarcium in here I doubt these things could operate for more than a couple of days" other than that though Zako can't make heads or tails of the drones innards, coming to a decision for what is to be done tomorrow seems to be the most pressing issue on everybody's mind.

If I remember right he's a GM for some other game so he might be doing something.

Elfeater as a GM? You've gotta be shitting me...

E: So he is... russian fire team

I'll go into the wager too  , winner takes all?

Awesome, well I only have 1 urist so I guess I'll just brace myself for some zombie bashing... oh god what did I just say >_< *ahem* zombie killing

On another note: Do we know if Sky Fortress isn't the one trying to take down MP?

What do you mean?

Hey guys, I reckon I'm going to make Sgt. Mason a player-controlled character, basically what I've been doing with special character's is they PM me actions I PM back what happens and then you guys will occasionally see bits of it (for example the drones are being controlled by a player), but anyway PM me if you'd like the slot and I'll try to pick one person for it.
