YOU ARE ALEX RASTON.20 minutes ago, Dervish informed you of a trap.15 minutes ago, he explained it's nature to you in breif, asking you to mobilize as many people as you can.5 minutes ago, you finished doing exactly that, and then got a phone call from the same bastard that hacked your training simulator.Which brings us to now: clocking just a hair under 150 mph, launching over a building on the outskirts back to your base. All that's between you and there is about 15 standard MT units, currently aimed in the direction of your team.>Give me a d100 roll.

Dave yells "Let's get back to base. We need to regroup ASAP.""Wait" Laurie cuts in "These guys are Black-Rock. Shouldn't we take them out before we move on? I mean, we've SEEN what they do to captives."[ ] Bigger picture. They couldn't even get into Vegas with that few, we need to focus on the main assault.[ ] You're right.

rolled 6 = 6"No." You say, and you feel Laurie's gaze turn towards you. "We need to focus on the gigger picture right now. A group this small couldn't even begin to mess with Vegas on this scale.

We can't risk losing the whole city on this. We need to prioritize."A long moment of silence. Then "Dammit. Damn them and damn you. Let's move." And then Laurie takes the lead as you continue to your base.
>>19743294You arrive back at base just in time to see your sister come out of the Hangar. It looks like Elsie's already deployed herself to a nearby roof. Your Com beeps as you let the two of them into the team channel."Mooch'll be along in a sec" Ari informs you. "He helped us get hooked up first.""Any news?""We got Duke's alert, and Josh apparently thinks their primary thing is going to be coming out of the north.""Anything out of Dervish's team?""He's the only one not in a suit yet.

You get into the local Raven's nest coms.Apparently some issues were had in establishing proper connections. Dervish is still gone, assumed to be in-route.Captain Brenner's team hasn't mobilized, and calling their hangar yields no results.There's also reports of a pair of weird looking prototype ACs running around and killing all the invading MTs they see, with seemingly little regard for collateral damage or organized defense.[ ] Look for Dervish.[ ] Investigate the Pack's Hangar.[ ] Confront the Mysterious ACs.
>>19743552>[x] Investigate the Pack's Hangar.It's very suspicious that they just disappeared like that.

>>19743571>>19743718No dissent from me.
"Let's go check out the Pack's Hangar.""Who's going?">Pick two members to accompany you. Remember: Laurie needs to change out from his Recon gear, and Mooch is still suiting up.
>>19743766Well, for minimum waiting, that'd leave us with Dave and Elsie? Or is Ari in her core, too?
>>19743856>Ari's mounted up.>Apparently national 'pretend you're a patriot dayh' was a bad time to run this.
>>19743889Maybe. That's a bugger. It's certainly not helping me that I'm feeling pretty damn tired.I'm thinking, wait for Mooch to suit up, and take Dave & Mooch to the Pack's hangar, with the others for base defense.

You make your way to the Pack's hangar, and come across another buck of Black-Rock raiders along the way. They're at a distance, but directly in your path.You tune the optics in closer, and you see they've already got about a dozen women and children they're about to 'rescue from this hellish world God has abandoned'.You imagine that the men were already dealt with, judging by the blood-stains on their makeshift alter.>What do? You can try and pass by unnoticed, you're still a hell of a way away and nobody's currently in their MTs. Unfortunately they might make a move on the hostages if you try and attack carefully, and ACs aren't exactly good at avoiding unprotected casualties.
>>19744292>>19744231>Well fuck me, now the pressure's on for real.
>>19744329I've got no tactics for it, but just passing by doesn't sit right with me. Even if it doesn't work, we gotta try.

>>19744329I gotta agree with Udz on this, leaving 'em there doesn't sit right with me. We need to do something, but I'm not really sure what.
>>19744362I agree, I don't think we would just ignore this, maybe if we pincer attacked with someone we could throw them off guard?
>>19744362>>19744398Can't we do a tactics skill check for suggestions from the GM? Or am I not remembering that right?

You have Elsie deploy nearby, while you and Dave proceed stealthily on foot.It's a careful balance to maintain: you need to get there as quickly as possible, but if you blow your cover before arrival they'll start killing hostages. But if you take too long, they'll start killing hostages, but in a properly ritualistic fashion.You'll need to be careful....>Give me a stealth check. Target 60. As always, averaging first three.

Before you can recover from the suprise a voice rings out."I hear you heretics, though I must admit I'm impressed by your resourcefulness in getting this close without notice. Now, no more dancing about in the shadows, come out where I can see you properly. This is the only time I'll ask before I continue God's work."Shit. He has you. And from his tone, you don't doubt that he's going to start carving up hostages if you ignore his command. Range is too far for you to get a proper shot off yet, and Elsie can't take them all without losing a hostage or two.>Action?
>>19745072Step out, try to fool him into thinking it's just us (us meaning Alex). Hopefully Dave can get close enough while we have their attention.
>>19745095This. If we're gonna get called out, we're gonna deliver. And hope Dave can deliver.
>>19745072Dave, you gotta be a man here. Step out and act like it was only us, put our hands up. We got to get him to think it was just us.
>>19745115>>19745095You step into the street, after signaling Dave to stay down for now."Hands up." Says the leader. You comply. "Now how about your friend comes out too?""What friend?" You ask, hoping your voice is steady. The self proclaimed Preist laughs."You've got a clever tongue on you. Doubtless your master, Satan, is proud to have one as smooth as you in his service. But the truth is hard to hide from one of gods chosen, one who has heard his voice himself and had the strength to live on. Tell your friend to come out. Since he will not listen to me, perhaps he'll listen to you.""And if nobody comes?""Then I'll be forced to assume that you mean to interrupt my ceremony, and I'll need to hurry things along a little bit." He grabs a girl, Christ she can't be more than ten, and pulls her close. Her tear streaked face is turned towards you, as the priest leans down to stage-whisper in her ear, clearly audible to you in the quiet street even the solid 30 yards away that you are. "Don't be frightened child. Death here is not a true death, merely a waking from a terrible dream. Once you're away you'll be safe from the tempters and corrupters here seeking only to gain company on their downward path."Her sounds kind. Almost Fatherly. Like he truly believes every word.

>>19745230Does Elsie have a shot? please tell me she has a shot regardless our situation.
>>19745271>You could try to bluff him. But he's probably already seen Dave.>You don't think he's seen Elsie yet though. But you aren't close enough for a shoot-out without casualties.
>>19745289I don't think we have any way to know that.
>>19745289>She does, but there's several cultists. As soon as she pegs one, the rest are going to start killing as many hostages as possible.
>>19745230I don't see any alternatives. Shoot him. Yes, some of the hostages will die. But more of them will die if we don't act now.

I can honestly say that I did not see this one coming.>You want to get into a debate with a crazy cultist on the subject of god while he's holding an adorable little girl at knife-point?>I'm not commenting on how successful this plan may be, just expressing my surprise at the idea.>You'll have to earn it via RP though.
>Ok, so what are we doing then? Are we going to try and talk/stall and get closer? Tell Elsie to take the shot? Other?
Okay, so he knows about Dave. But does he know about the others? I mean, did he really think a servant of Satan would play fair and try to take on so many with only so few? Hah! Where do you think you are? The Vatican?! THIS IS VEGAS! THE ORIGINAL HIVE OF SCUM AND VILLAINY! We have you surrounded, outnumbered, and out gunned. At the signal, they'll attack. Sure, you may be able to kill a few of them, but not all, not before you all die... If you're lucky. How long do you think it will take before you break, I wonder?ITP: Bluff that we have them surrounded. Might work, all I got honestly.
>>19745391How much distance could we cover if we simply charge them? The very idea of someone running AT them could throw the cultists off for the seconds we need to get closer and to start putting bullets to faces.
>>19745407>Probably most of the distance. But you have to consider running, trying to draw your guns at the same time, and then either trying to run and gun at people surrounded by people you're trying NOT to shoot and/or stopping to aim.>Tactically viable, but disadvantageous. you're banking on cultists to not have their shit together when it comes to brutally murdering people.
>>19745391If we stall/get closer, maybe we'll see something we can use to turn the tide of this situation....I vote stall
Alright yeah, stall.I'm no good at philosophical debate, so one of you guys is gonna have to RP this stall.
>>19745451>>19745442>Alright then. How are you going to go about the debate? Just start talking. I'll do the counter-points.
Lemme see what I can cook up. I'm not exactly a great writer or debater."And you are saying that God wants you to kill all of these people, who want only to live their lives in peace?

His eyes seemed to be unfocused for a minute "We were all there ourselves once. God's abandoned this world child, and he took all of his faithful with him. But...." He looks happy as he raises hands to the sky "There is yet hope! By casting off these tainted mortal coils we can yet be saved. Since God will not come to us, we shall have to go to him. It's a leap of faith, but all his faithful shall land safely. Even those who have doubts need only a guide. He spoke onto me myself and imparted these truths, as he did brother Clarent." He nods at another man wearing similar vestments, who you now notice has a knife ready to slash his own throat to 'guide' the newly departed onto heaven.>Next?
>>19745566But are you sure the voice you heard was truly of God? Did you test it? Surely you remember what John wrote in his first Epistle. "Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world. This is how you can recognize the Spirit of God: Every spirit that acknowledges that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God, 3 but every spirit that does not acknowledge Jesus, that spirit is not from God. This is the spirit of the antichrist, which you have heard is coming and even now is already in the world."
>>19745566God never departs from the world. He is here always. He does not condone the depravity of our society, but in his benevolence has granted us free will, so that each of us may be held to account at the end of days.Your claim to have been given these rituals by God? These people need your guidance? If so, let you aid them in more subtle ways, not by trying to deliver them to our Father yourselves. For as we know from Matthew 6, “Be careful not to practice your righteousness in front of others to be seen by them. If you do, you will have no reward from your Father in heaven."

"No, I know well the ways of devils and angels. Such a warning is pointless though. He acknowledged me, and the truths of our faith in full.">>19745648"In better days that may have been true. God decided that it was time for this world to end, and called out to his children, but there were so many who didn't listen. Who couldn't hear or chose to listen to a different voice." He sounds genuinely heartbroken. "Even those of us among the clergy. But we were given our second chance here: to save those that can still be saved. In this duty we might yet be forgiven and see heaven. We need to spread the word. To help those who need our help. Our actions may seem monstrous to the uninitiated, but we know better. This world is merely a dream, and we shall soon all waken to God's embrace." He looks down, seemingly unaware that you've already halved the distance again, Dave having joined your side apparently. You're now debatably in pistol range, though it's hardly ideal. "Some though, will be going sooner than others. Worry not child ." He says as hew readies the knife and the girl in his arms begins to tremble violently. "God loves you still. I envy you for getting to see him first, but that sin is my cross to bear."He raises his knife.....>Give me an initiative roll.

Two routes up, there's a sort of ramp that the rest of them use, but it's also a choke-point for them to use against you.You could also go straight, and end up right in the middle of the hostages. There's a bit of trash heaped up, the footing doesn't look completely sure, but you think you can make it and be on them NOW.>Go, acrobatics check or cover?
>>19745957Acrobatics check!
>>19745957So is the trash heaped up option the same as the "middle of hostages" option? If so, do not do that. We are trying to protect that, getting in the middile of them will lead to fast deaths.Otherwise acrobatics check
>>19745980Agreeing with this guy, we want to usher them away and prevent the cultists from approaching, not get in the middle of them and have them be shot.
[x] acrobatics
>>19745957Wait, shit, Acrobatics check takes us to the HOSTAGES, doesn't it?Disregard >>19745967 I'm a moron.
>Uh, THEY'RE in the middle of the hostages, and are less enthusiastic about shooting their own people.
>>19746064Oh. I thought they had them surrounded
>>19746064Oh. Well then, goin' back to ACROBATICS CHECK!
>Beat a 50.

rolled 41 = 41>>19746093In the name of the Lord let this battle be wonGive us an Acrobatics check that can block out the sun
>Important phone call. back in five.
rolled 13 = 13You quickly launch yourself over the trash-heap and into the middle of the hostages. Elsie and Dave meanwhile take out a cultist each the remaining members of the group whirl to face you, and then the others, unsure of what to make of the new situation. One of them recovers quickly and trys to club you with his rifle.>beat my roll.
rolled 83 = 83>>19746282Oh crap
rolled 90 = 90>>19746282Come on fail dice be useful for once.

Somehow I am not surprised.
>>19746295Oh god not that joke again...
>>19746295Damn, not even invoking rap battles seems to appease these dice
>>19746282Dammit AC-Guy, why must you be blessed with luck in the die, but so little in life?Guess we're getting a broken nose after this.
>>19746316>I'm tempted to go to Vegas. Well, back to Vegas.>But without Dave this time.
>>19746333What happened the first time?
>>19746345>I'd rather not talk about. Partly because it was ridiculous and terrible, and partly because it was so fucking insane I don't think anybody would believe me if I told the story.
>>19746333You'd be mixing dice and life. I'm not sure what would happen, but I bet it would be you winning big, just to lose it all.
>>19746354These are the best stories. Anyhow yes, go back to Vegas and obtain riches.
>>19746354Let me guess, Dave was on the roof the whole time?
>>19746362>At one point, I was dragged into an alleyway by a pack of wild dogs.>This isn't a joke or a reference, I actually had to punch my way out of a snarling wall of DOG.
>>19746375
rolled 33 = 33You try to block the incoming strike, and are completely unsuccessful, since you were slightly shakier on the landing than you thought.As the guy steps back out of punching range after delivering his blow, one of his friends attempts the same from the other side.>beat my roll.

>>19746422Why is Deadpool rolled up into a ball like Samus?
that's spiderman
>>19746437Seriously, you don't know about calling 60s Spiderman Deadpool?
>>19746447did my post really leave any doubt that I knew about it? I'm having a horridly off day.

As he steps in to deliver a blow, you calmly side-step, and then deliver a brutal chop to his trachea. then you take his rifle out of his considerably more pliant hands."Glrgh!" He protests."No." you respond. "Mine now." And then you bring it down as a club so hard you feel the wooden stock break.Then you draw your gun, and a third guy's head explodes behind you as Elsie takes another shot. Only three hostile left now.A lot of things happen at once. You get your first real look at what they've been doing up here. You see a dozen children with their throats slit, and several men who clearly tried to fight back, having been stabbed to the point of mutilation to ensure they stayed down. there's a woman who was clearly pregnant before her demise, clearly treated all the rougher for daring to bring a new soul into this world.You feel nauseous. But somewhere deep inside of you, something dark and terrible begins to take root.Deep down, Alex Raston learns to hate.>I'm gonna have to end the thread there for now. I'll see you guys hopefully later this week.
rolled 84 = 84>>19746487Damn ok. See you next time AC-Guy.Rolling for awesomeness of next thread
>>19746487Alright then. See you whenever the next thread is around.
>>19746487>And then you bring it down as a club so hard you feel the wooden stock break.Ouch.Seriously, that's just... wow.That had to HURT.And g'night AC-Guy!
>>19746487Very well; I'm falling over in my chair anyway.Though my body and mind may not permit me to attend another quest live, know that I shall hound the archives and follow this quest to the end.This truly is an epic tale. Bravo!
>>19746521Wuss. I'm East Coast and you don't see ME complaining! (living literally a hundred and fifty yards from work pays off yet again!)
>>19746539FFFFFFFFFFFF- I'M ALWAYS TOO LATE
