Alright guys, got the shooter located at a small collection of cages to our northwest. I'd point, but I don't feel the need to get shot. Someone want to go ahead and obliterate those? Once that's taken care of, or if you want to try and move closer to our objective, you'll need to take a left at the first intersection. I'll get my drones closer and get a... Teal, what are you... Hand it here. Quickly.

Accept Teal's nuke. If he does not give it to me OR put it away, ask Steve to electrocute him.

If he does give up his nuke peacefully, order all three deployed drones to get closer to that northwest collection of cages, using the cages to try and hide their movements. (They are the size of a softball )

Hmmm... Wasn't there a guy with drones around? Can't remember if he came here or not. I can imagine they'd be  useful... might get me one someday...

(( What do you want from me, I had class and he gave us 2 & a half hours to update with something 

I am also your medic. Don't make me come medic you. I already have to medic Stacy, assuming the next shot doesn't take off his head.))

((Isn't Stacy a robot now? He'll be lucky if the next shot takes off his head.))

(( Ah. So he is. Well. Less for me to do then.

...
...
...

How am I supposed to become as notorious as Faith worst medic ever or the Kickboxing Doctor if only the robots get injured?

Ahhh, that's right, he destroyed his insides with a mixture of Lyra and sand. The only real question is which did him in ))

(( What a suspicious mortality rate. Almost as if rolling one of two numbers on a die will lead to success, while all other paths lead to horrible, fiery doom. Or worse. ))

(( So, here's my full statement on 'why the med bay is (probably) safe'.

1) We have been told that the executors would feel 'weird' to the touch, and all the civies in the med-bay were transported via being lifted onto a hover trolley. I would hope that the person who did the transporting was not unaware enough to notice the difference. ( Of course, I did the transporting, so there's a bet I won't be taking >.< )

2) Steve has shown that he has a lot of awareness in his ship. He knows when amps are in use, who's messing with what, etc. I find it highly doubtful that an Executor could have disguised himself as a civie, been taken to the medbay, and examined by the staff, without Steve, the Doctor, or anyone on the Medical team realizing something was wrong.

3) By all indications, they were not here for us. They were preparing for something, but not specifically Steve. The civies were injured as almost literally the first action, so it seems incredibly unlikely that an Executor would have been on hand at the exact right moment to become an injured civie and get taken aboard, or even control one. As for mind control, it's been my understanding that it is a fairly short-range affair. And if one of them had an implanted suggestion of some form, I am confident in the Sword's med-bay being able to handle it without resorting to massacre.

In short, unless you are IC that paranoid about them, leave the poor civies out of it. It wouldn't surprise me if some of them were Sword crew, not random people that Steve isn't familiar with from the facility.


... also, it wouldn't surprise me if Steve electrocuted you for trying. So have fun!  ))

(( The person with the APC came with us, and said to take the APC. I assumed that the APC would be flat out unusable, unless it had the strength to punch through the walls and support beams of a massive structure, especially since our resident Avatar had to punch his way into the building to begin with.

Since no further mention of the APC has been made by PW, I think this is the case, and we don't have it. Still, maybe the main defense team would find it useful? You could certainly park it on the bridge ))

Sensible... yes. Unfortunate, also yes, but it may be them or... well, all of us. If they're part of an Executor's game, they're already dead, so it falls to us to not die with them.

... May the gods forgive what we are about to do.

(( I'll say if I'm restricting who can hear the radio, usually with a quote.

And right now I'm trusting the radio to be secure, because otherwise we'll be reduced to a pile of meta-gamers, or spending way too long trying to trick something that is, in theory, way better at that sort of game than we are
Steve also didn't say 'limit comms', just 'limit to radio', so I'm trusting it as secure. For now.))

(( Speaking of, PW, does it go without saying that we will follow Steve's comms instructions without being specific about it? He said 'Radio Only, No talking' which I interpret as either 'radio-text only' or 'radio speech, no ext. speakers'. Either way, unless I'm intentionally breaking that request, I'd like to not have to say how we're talking XD ))

Yeah, I'm not going down there... let me know if they need medical attention once the area is secure, I'll give you drone support from here.

Scout out this section of concourse with 3 of the drones, look for other oddities, sods, or spooks.

IF no one else approaches the men, also send one drone for a fly by of the men in the center.
