DOOMguys, 4/4 Players still alive! Apply to waitlist today!
« on: October 07, 2018, 04:40:10 am »

IC thread for Players of Sortie 1 is here!



At 0030 hours, USMC Research Facility "Dante" on Mars' moon, Phobos, notified USMCID of anomalous gravimetric readings.

At 0035 hours, USMEC Research Facility "Dante" has stopped responding to the incoming communications.

At 0120 hours, the main military complex "Abaddon" on Mars itself, has stopped responding to our communications as well.

At 0155 hours, the Commscenter, located 35 miles southeast from Abaddon, has sent a distrect call, mentioning 'beastly demons', 'things from beyond' and 'death and destruction'.

At 0156 hours, the Commscenter itself also went silent.

All contact with USMC facilities on Mars has thus been lost. No human-made signal has been received since then by USMC Intelligence Directorate.

You and your squadmates are thus being sent on Priority Red mission. Your Drop-Pod will arrive there at 0600 hours today.

You are to inflitrate Commscenter, survey the situation, locate and rescue any survivors, recover research data, and eradicate whatever 'demons' that might be roaming the Commscenter.

Success of your mission will dictate whether USMC is able to counter the unknown threat and begin recovery operations for Abaddon and Phobos.

Good luck.

WHAT IS THIS GAME:

Basically a DOOM(RL)-like forum squad game.
You go in, murder few/some/many/legions of demons, and succeed in defeating the ~GREAT EVIL~ at the bottom of Commscenter.
At least, that's the plan!

WHO ARE PLAYERS:

Name (username):
Max Health: 100
Starting Perk: You get 1 BASIC perk.
Equipment (15 slots max): 1 Weapon of choice (not UNCOMMON/RARE), 1 Small Medkit, 3 Weapons/Items that are not in UNCOMMON/RARE category (Every Weapon chosen comes will Ammo fully loaded)
Relations: Family members, marines you like, other beloved ones. People you look up to meeting again once you return from Commscenter.
Backstory: How did you get to USMCID (United Space Marine Corps Intelligence Directorate), or at least, how did you get yourself into this highly suicidal slightly unusual, Priority Red mission.

GAME PROGRESS:

Players arrive at Commscenter and traverse Rooms.
Inside Rooms, there can (and most probably, will) be enemies, or lootboxes, or other things worthy of note.
Goal of each Chapter is to find the Elevator room, and descend to another level of Commscenter, all the way to Level 13.
At the end of each Chapter, every Player still alive can choose 1 additional Perk from Perk list.

COMBAT AND TURNS:

Each Combat starts with Players declaring their Actions.
Then they're resolved, and the Enemies perform their Actions.
Players always start first, unless specified by Room's gimmick and/or Enemy skill (both equally rare).

An Action can be:

Attacking an Enemy with Weapon
Scanning (something) with Handscanner
Reloading currently equipped Weapon
Switch currently equipped Weapon
Use an Item on self/ally
Interact with Door/Terminal/Lockbox
Equip/Take off an Armor (are you crazy or what?)

HIT, EVASION, DAMAGE:

Attack Formula: Base 80 + Hit bonuses from Perks/Weapons - Enemy Evasion
Damage Formula: Weapon Damage + Bonuses from Perks + other Bonuses - Enemy Armor

WEAPON ALTS:

Alts are Alternative Attacks. They provide a different method of using the Weapon.
You must specify that you're using a weapon's Alt; otherwise, a normal attack is used.

ARMOR AND DAMAGE REDUCTION:

Each Armor reduces Damage by certain amount - the Damage reduced instead lower the Armor's Durability.
Armor can be repaired with Armor Shards as long as it has at least 1 Durability left.
When Armor's Durability falls to 0 or below, it is irreversibly destroyed and cannot be repaired.

---

This is in no way a complete rules file. New things will probably get added as we play.

Name (username): Derran (Doomblade187)
Max Health: 100
Starting Perk: Steelskin
Equipment (15 slots max): 1 Shotgun, 1 Small Medkit, Shotgun Ammo, Handscanner, Greensman Armor
Relations: There are 3 marines Derran thought were "alright". The guy with the Australian hat, the lady with the chaingun, and the engineet who hated explosives. He hopes they're okay.
Backstory: Derran knows exactly how hee got to where he is now; the USMCID aptitude battery, passed with an especially high score in combat, and got shunted to troubleshooting instead of signal analysis. It's fun though.

DOOMRL!? I'VE SPENT A TON ON THAT ROGUELIKE AND WON. IT IS WONDERFUL.

Name (username):  Talarys Cortana (Tiruin)
Max Health: 100
Starting Perk: Son of a Gun
Equipment (15 slots max): 1 Pistol (6/6), 1 Small Medkit, 1 Pistol (6/6), Handscanner, Greensmen Armor
Relations: Generally everyone within high command who regarded her as useful, and her girlfriend, who was coincidentally the engineer who took care of her equipment (and the rest of the platoon).
Backstory: Tala got into the USMCID (United Space Marine Corps Intelligence Directorate) through skills and aptitude analysis patterns being consistent through her time of duty, from her recruiting to basic training in the medical field (Psychological Unit). She decided to sign up for this type of mission due to how dangerous she knew it would be for others, and mostly because of some kind of conspiracy within high command and some prejudices towards her, perhaps.

SAY, unlike in DOOMRL, can we use medikits on others? Because if we can, please shift my starting perk to Technical? SO I can heal others better? :P

Immortality like that would be even more game breaking than four Aaron's in one place.
You're both so obviously scum that this is a surprisingly difficult decision.

I'm always of the impression that Haspen is fair and doesn't do first come first serve :P So SHOVE ALL THE SHEETS \o/
We'll hopefully get dropship allies for added fun.

Guess it really was first come first serve after all... Don't know if I should finish the sheet and hope three other players die or just give up.
