*Toby finishes cleaning the Luger and the spins it around without really paying attention to it. He realizes what he's doing, and suddenly notices that it's also clean* "When did that happen? Oh well. Least it works now."

I'm all set to board the train. Esketit!

See if I can see if there’s any weaknesses in the track that could be exploited with explosives.
Otherwise just wait for other people to decide what to do.

...I mean they're just train tracks. The weakness that can be exploited about them via explosives is that you can fucking blow them up.  I dunno what kind of magic weakness or exploit you're looking for by combining tnt with train tracks but I can't honestly think of any.

I thought we're here to demoralize the enemy and lift up the spirits of our brave soldiers.

Keep bugging whoever's in charge to get sent to the front.

You rise from the nazi corpse pile, ready to cause trouble.

Honestly, I'm not really sure about what am I supossed to do right now. I suposse I had to get in the tank, but I didn't and missed the opportunity? Is anyone else close to my position?

Spoiler: William Taggart (click to show/hide)
We'll assume you climbed onto the tank along with the others.

2 turns left OR we can start if people are ready to go.
((Hum :( My action wasn't processed))
Yeah let's assume I'm on the tank.

And then let's assume I'm taking a shooting position that's somewhat stable on the tank, or an unoccupied turret for shooting stuff.

Okie dokie. On the tank we go.

Grab some dry branches and drop them onto the barricade, then light them on fire.

You find kindling to increase the size of the fire. It burns well enough.

Quote
Its rather difficult to drop kick a corpse you see. Thats more...energetically falling on them. Now, had you given them the people's elbow or maybe a suplex, that would be worth describing. But as of right now I have no interest in explaining how mediocre your double footed pratfalls are.
You cretin, there were perfectly good living nazis to dropkick when that action actually occurred!

Oh, but I'll show you, I'l show you all! Get into one of those trees so I can dropkick onto the train from it!

Unless that wouldn't work for some reason, in which case help with creating a roadblock/obstruction on the tracks.


Spoiler: Radioman (click to show/hide)
You climb up a tree and ready yourself for making a bad decision.





It seems like the majority of people are ready so lets to it, lads.

The train comes rumbling into view a few minutes later and its not what they expected. Some had heard of the armored trains, which had apparently been used extensively by the Polish, but few had ever seen one. The nazi locomotive that comes barreling into view is one of these trains; a massive block of metal armor somewhere between a tank and a train, with the angled plate armor and swiveling turrets of a tank and the huge driving wheels of a train. The thing has no smokestack and instead discharges occasional cracks of electricity from three back bending metal tines along its roof; clearly something from the Stormtower tech brigade. The several cars behind it are equally armored and armed, but  beyond the first 3 or 4 cars the carriages are normal looking cattle cars though they're made from metal instead of wood. The train apparently sees the burning barricade right about when the tank and its passengers see the train because it...speeds up.  Apparently its betting that the armored axe blade of a cattle catcher jutting out in front of its wheels is going to be enough to clear the way.  The machine gun turrets on the engine jerk into life and begin swiveling to aim at the tank and its half dozen external ride alongs.

(for some reason I hoped that if I didn't mention the possibility of the train being one of the armored ones, then we wouldn't have to deal with one)

*lights up smoke and takes a long pull on it*

if I'm not already in the tank (I should be) dive in the hatch and casually tell everyone outside to run for cover. Since I should be in the tank, do the same, minus the diving in the hatch part, and jam an AT shell into the gun. Then yell at someone to fire and start making a plan. We can still salvage this one lads!

Approach train behind engine, match speed. Try not to give the train's machine guns a good angle to shoot at us.

Never ever cease communication with your enemies, never ever cease interaction with them, never isolate yourself from them. Never ignore them, relish the time to deal with them, to exercise banter. The biggest mistake one can make is ignoring one's enemies. Go out of your way to pick a fight today.

Piecewise says I'm still fighting for the allies...

If possible, use the necronomicon raise more zombies to use as meatshields.

Start marching towards the front, preach in English, French and German about the universal hatred of the elder gods, the meaninglessness of life, and the comfort of death and war. Inspire our troops to suicidal bravery.

((It occured to me too, but when I googled it, it seemed like armoured trains were too rare.  Plus I was looking forward to half the players dying horribly, and didn't want to discourage that.  Success!))

"Huh.  Hey, dudes inside Isabella!  Shoot it now!  Oh, and everyone else, uh, hang onto her front, on the other side've her turret.  You'll be fine!  Just don't get caught in her treads!"

Take cover behind the tank's turret.  Then start shooting at the MG firing slits with a Springfield.  Drop the gun and jump onto the train if we get close enough for that.

Bob pulled his hat off in one hand, and gave a loud, "YEE-HAW" before bracing himself.
Try to get on the train and pls don't die.

And by God, was she going to use it.

Jump off the tank before it gets going and try to find cover. If there’s none to be found then sprint towards the nearest available cover.

Keep in cover until the MG cars pass. Then rush the cattle cars when I see an opening to board the train. Knife time.

There are only two sure things in life: death and taxes and lists and poor arithmetic and overlong jokes and poor memory and probably a few more things.

(wotchu talkin aboot I totally didn't have to go back and edit that in or anything definitely had it there to begin with)

*Toby breathes out the smoke he just took a pull off of, stubs the cig out because he's been trying to quit, and sighs* "We're all gonna die"
*Then he enters controlled panic mode and starts scrambles around the tank checking that all the MGs are fully loaded, and starts moving AP shells closer to the main gun so he can load it faster* "Aim for the engine or the control room, we gotta stop that sumbitch first, or we won't be able to get good accuracy on those turrets!"


do things that need to be done so other people can do the important jobs in the tank, like firing the main cannon without having to worry too much about reloading.

Stay inside the tank for now, climb out and jump onto the train once we're close to it.
