Pilot is a one-man gig, kid. At least, until you get back to base and spend some of that swag you've picked up by this point.

>>22466872
No extra pilot? Or it it extra actions only as an ace pilot?

>>22466884
There's no such thing as an "ace pilot" in terms of game rules. You just need to increase your squad size with exp.

>>22466899
Fair enough, what's my max size, 3-4?

>>22466907
technically 7 if you buy only extra squadmates as upgrade though monday may veto that

>>22466907
You can size up as far as your upgrade cap goes, so you can potentially have 6 extra men.

Ah... It was only a matter of time.
Monsters in the Deep Northern Hemisphere are infamously abject to daylight... Well I suppose its time to clean up the ghouls too.

>>22467703
*bangs sword on his shield* Not like that will be a hard task...

Just... lemme rest for a bit. had ghouls on my ass and then that 'thing' popped right in front of me.

Any medics around? Im bleeding a bit from that last hit.

"Vell then vat waz disappointing, Dorfo.

" I dont know Fordo, we came in rather close that time "

" Close to my sword you mean! "

" Dohohohohohoho"

" VVait does that mean we get to keep our house ?"

" If you dont mind the new neighbors, too !"

>>22467703
If only all of our enemies had such an easy weakness to take advantage of. At least the ghouls are easy enough to mop up during the day.

Anyways, what brings you to this god forsaken corner of Iffram?

>>22467703
"Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't you supposed to be dead?"

>>22467757
You! Men of beards! Now that the fight is won, let's compare stories weapons and drink!

"Fuck..." Ralin sits down after climbing to the top of the house as the bloody construct falls to pieces in the daylight. "Just... just fuck." he pulls out a pack of cigarettes, lights one up and takes a long, deep drag.

"Are all the civies okay at least?"

>>22468008
"Lady, you might have helped, but Gunther was the one in charge. This place belongs to -Ragnyl- not to you... also, shit... this is gonna make convincing the Ifframi we don't intend conquest a little difficult isn't it?"

Supplies are established. At least 3 Other Ragnyllian sites have reported success as well. But it looked like we lost more than 2000 souls in this single night to the wilds. . ..

Hunker down and build up your defenses Ragnyll 1. It seems you have a VIP on your hands too. So long as you hold that town, you might be shown some manner of leniency for our... intrusion.

Your instructions this day are to simply gather more lost soldiers, and make a quick recovery, over and out.

After a few minutes, Ralin climbs down from the roof he'd been sitting on outside of the town square. "Captain, I got this sketch for you for facilities placement" He hands her a sketch of the town.

"Barracks and Communication shave been placed so they are the hardest positions in the town to take, and the communications room is highly placed and we can use the platform outside for a radar and antena, or at least a place to easily get up onto the roofs to adjust them.

Barracks is near by because the communications room will probably be vital to our stay here, the terrain is so unreliable radio communication is an absolute necessity to triangulate positions I'll bet. We want to navigate? We'll need that room, so barracks is right by it."

"THen central location also means we can easily access most of the town quickly."

He gestures towards the large house to the north, "A good open area, large open rooms, perfect for a workshop."

His hand trails south from there, "Across the road, the armory, if there's an accident then the barracks won't be exploded with it, but it's close enough for fast access of munitions."

His hand trails further south still, "It'll need repair, but that building there will be perfect for a garage or motorpool for our smaller armor."

His hand drifts west to the large square on the opposite side of town, "And the gates here, once we repair them, are perfect for the containment of our larger armor like the Gryphon and the Train-Tonk."

"Finally, I marked all the places that need to be repaired. We can use the crashed transport plane and our own wrecked armor for spare parts and materials."

"Is this acceptable?"

= Floorboard Survivors=

It was shocking to find that a handful of Ashleaf had survived- almost 200 in all under the floorboards of their homes.

In the stores of their basements they subsisted on little nourishment. Some had forgotten what transpired completely, and almost all had no clue of the continental tongue...

When we asked what caused this, they could only say Arthur. We asked why- and they answered;

Their soldiers were taken away, a week before the attack...

- Hans Truman, date unknown....

Correct, As you know, I died in office before I could pass 3 important laws that was certain to end my career in Voss.

1. To pardon all the voss millitary personnel that deserted to Ragnyll.
2. To Recognize the area beyond the Kolsteci mountain range as a sovereign state for those who wish to abscond from the pact of blood.
3. Alcohol on Sundays.

It seems that my efforts brought about an unexpected generation of independently driven warriors. But it seems there's much harmony to be established with your ranks. We are gaining a second shot at life after all, and I believe that Iffram is the only nation that is forgiving of such clerical extensions to one's life... save for Voss.

Well... I suppose I'll go and do what I've been wanting to do for about a dozen years now, Sleep.

The rumbling of the earth would echo inside the village as the beaten but still intact Terran drilled upward to the surface, finally letting its valiant passengers out.

"Alright boys, this here's the end of the ride. Thanks for helping with the guns in there, couldn't have done it without the lot of ya. I'm nicknaming this baby the Land Raider, we will go far kid, that we will." grinning, the pilot heads back inside to grab some repair tools, half of the transport's hull caked in the blood of the dead and of horrible little monsters.

Ralin gives the former major a cold glare, then turns back to Captain Isane.
>>22468259
"Captain Isane, if I might suggest, we should also clean out the well as soon as possible, that ghoul blood and other fluids might lead to further ghoul infections... We can use the snow and the arrays from our Caster to sweep the well itself clean, and then get on cleaning duty for the rest of the town."

After some though, Ralin makes a few more adjustments to the map.

"Here, adjusted, should make things more clear."

Huh, I believe that setup will suffice for now.

"Well then I see no reason to stay now that I have that map. Have fun getting back to Ragnyll, I'll be off to recruit a revolutionary army."

>>22472990
"Miss Lanista, perhaps it would be worthwhile for you to stick with us for a little longer? The way we are setting up base here, we may not be leaving so soon after all."

Taking her aside he whispers, "that sword is not going anywhere, and if you were to stay with us and help protect Truman well it would not hurt to have such a figure owing you..."

"Well, that seemed hairy, but somehow we didn't die."
"We also didn't do anything"

Being the European in an all American game is suffering

>>22474226
"I won't say. I'll just say that they are waiting. Since you have Sol and I'm pretty sure it won't be handed back to me please take care of killing Helena for me if she comes asking for death."
>>22474344
"I'm simply solving chain of command problems that could arise if I stay. It's also better for everyone if Truman doesn't get his name involved with a rebellious Ifframi element."

>>22474528
Mana, I can't in good conscience just let you go after admitting you're going to commit a crime against a neutral nation. Isane, Clyde, detain former Major Mana until I can get this mess sorted out with command.

I have had a bead on her since she started talking Major. If you want her put down give the word.

The Advisor sighs and lets his suit's array power up.

Ralin pulls out a combat knife, his legs spreading as he simply lets the plans fall to the ground, his stance light, his grenade launcher hanging from it's strap behind him as he glares.

"Best come quietly Miss. Most of us don't know you from a hole in the ground, reputation or not."

((Just realized, if we kill her here, she's effectively permadead. She's ifframi now, that means when she dies and is reincarnated, her memories are erased for the most part, she won't remember what she did before now.))

>>22475249

"Back off kid if all you're going to wave around is that piddly thing. She could gut you before you even got close enough to use it."

The ironclad moves to loom over the former Major, but the expression on the pilot's face is regretful.

"Erg. I'm sorry about this Miss, but orders are orders. Though it is nice to see you without those nasty implants that were keeping you alive before."

((Considering what to upgrade, can I upgrade my pilot's ability to repair more and to give more rating to vehicles?))

((Get an aspect, maybe Ironsnail for that bonus armor?))

>>22475624
((Why would I want an aspect that makes me slower at my job. I need a non pilot aspect for this.))

((If I get another squad member do they have separate actions or is it shared?))

>>22475982
>((Why would I want an aspect that makes me slower at my job. I need a non pilot aspect for this.))
((Then you need to spend a game as a nonpilot class.))

>>22476058
((Thank you I was painfully unaware))

>>22476034
The actions would be separate.

>>22475594
Yes, you can upgrade the repair ability.

>>22476096

Do additional squadmembers cost 10 exp? And what weapon could I expect them to have (as an investigator)?

>>22476096
I'm afraid to upgrade this here tank and then to die as another class. But I'd do +3 pilots, +2 dr on Terran.

>>22475382
Ralin growls, and slowly backs off, sheathing his knife and backing up... his hand resting lightly on the grenade launcher he couldn't use in this situation, even if he did trust the bloody thing.

=The Court Martial in Windmill.=

I got the report, Gunther and I suppose I'm grateful for your efforts to preserve peace when the situation is out of our hands. Since we are incapable of presiding corporeally, I suppose we can entertain our Counselor to preside in this meeting, Counselor Truman ? "

>
Oh dear, that's what everyone calls me now I see... Now I won't jump the gun and assume any office of importance. I did die after all. You would need to appoint me by election.. and I doubt we can do such thing- so I suppose there's no helping it. Major Wolkin Gunther, Major Mana Regina Lanista, We gather here in a ...desolate windmill in "Ragtown" , Ashleaf.... to appoint judgement and perhaps, reach a compromise with your intention to act on what could possibly be open revolution against a neutral nation currently not at war with Ragnyll. Is this correct, Ms. Lanista ?

>>22479471
"There is no need for compromise I was thrown out of Valhalla and then resurrected by a Ifframi mage denying me my war against deathgods. I'll claim Excaliber and Avalon as compensation for my lost assets."

Ralin sits outside in the crowd watching through the front door. He was gently puffing on a cigarette, blowing the smoke back out his nose. "God I hate these things... need to make myself a new goddamn pipe." He mutters, eyes narrowed at the former Major. "pfff. She's cruising for permanent lock up..."

>>22479633

Very well, so you have accepted your lot in death, however you are - against your will brought back out to the mortal plane and under mercy of Arthur's law. Which is- from what I gathered in my time is a set of infallibly absolute laws imposed by King Arthur so many centuries ago. To juxtapose the legality of that act against our modern convention of life and ressurrection can only be explored so much in this case.

However, you present an interesting case in which we, as Valknyres, find the Deathgods as common enemy that transcends national law and indeed exists beyond planes arrayed against us. And would it not interest you to perhaps reconsider the structure of your methodology ?

Secondly you accept that if you were to attain true death and return to valhalla, you could also be recompensed for the outcome of what was ultimately a terrorist act.

Now, Gunther, you have detained Mana, now a soul of Ifframi that acts in the interest of Ragnyll - despite it being extreme and invasive even in times of war. In your intent to preserve the peace between Ragnyll and Iffram have duly detained her before she could act on her plan to extol recompense from Iffram. Is this Correct, Major ?

>>22479778
"You don't szay, heard the first thing that came out of her mouth when she came in was about that sword. Crazy like old Voss generals." Revenue planted the twisted remains of a tow harpoon into the ground to lean on.

>>22479874
"Yeah, I was outside the tank with Jones before he... he..." Ralin pulls out his cigarette and spits on the trodded up, mud and snow of the ground. "anyway... yeah. Woman is crazy as a loon. So, any bets on her becoming violent?"

>>22479847
I was erring on the side of caution, Counselor, because frankly, we have no idea what Mana has been up to both in Hel and in the short time she was here under nobody's watch. And the only plans of action she's told us so far amount to stealing a national treasure and deposing a sitting monarch.

And there's also the question of whatever governs Iffram would consider Mana's legal status as, since even we can't really figure it out.

Taking out a piece of paper from inside his cockpit, the ragged-haired pilot reads off: "The fact remains that Mana has disobeyed a direct order from Ironcommand to apprehend the Black Deserters. And as well has committed crimes against peace by planning and making it known that she desires to engage in a war of aggression against a neutral nation, the same crime that began this war in the first place."

He coughs a bit, then says "Those are uh, the words of my squaddie Atramente, but I approve them here as his superior."

>>22480077

I would request a service record in Hel then, haha. But who knows what bearing that realm has on this case. Only that Mana had been competent in her task and that her claim to take excalibur holds a great deal of certainty despite her methods. I would instead try to foster such an advantage if only it could be controlled or found acceptable which in this case is not.

As for how we treat her in this, I would imagine that she presides before us as a Major from Ragnyllian's Hellghast Battalion. To be judged as one of ours until she has been officially disenfranchised from our ranks- which would then automatically make her enemy to Ragnyll's immediate interest if she does decide to stay on her track to press the Ifframi royalty.

I will presume that you do not wish that at this time and that we do not wish to endanger our diplomatic stability with Iffram by letting you go. Even if you were to change out of your fatigues and armor and that rank pin, the world will see your acts as Ragnyllian- this fact is inescapable. And thus it is here that we find ourselves in deadlock, Ms. Lanista.

Can you provide anything to your case, that would help us find a solution out of this ?

Right now,
Re-integration exists as an option. What your rank would be maybe up to election.

Disenfranchisement will see you back in the desolate wylds where monsters and Arthur's authority roam, again- up for election.

Summary execution may or may not see you in Valhalla. It certainly does seem that the crowd outside is agitated enough to resort to this...

Or we can keep going. As mediator I will perhaps find a mutual answer betwixt the two parties that would benefit Ragnyll and the Valknyres. I myself am indifferent to what wars Ragnyll fights- only that I must ensure that it is good for it. "

>>22480552

Noted. Granted that she was in an extreme situation in which she would have probably been killed and that IronCommand was heatedly emotional at the wake of so many war casualties being ripped awake. It is still troubling that aggressing Iffram is her intention. "

Again, we are trying to illuminate the situation. To explore all angles and consider the weights of each side. Ultimately we fight a war against dark forces, and Ragnyll be damned if we fell to our own daggers than we do to the enemy's might. Especially now that we have earned a second shot at life.

>>22480552
"And how do you expect me to apprehend a whole unit in this body, are you saying that you think I could take all of you as I am now?"
>>22480582
"As I said I ask reparation from Iffram. Unless Ragnyll is ready to pay instead of them my case will stay the same, they owe me a realm, an army and something of greater value than my Vranked body. As for executing me I'm sure you'll find taker."

>>22480582
"If you will hear my suggestion,

We can not entertain the former Major's delusions of grandeur. Ragnyll is in too precarious a position, and her actions would undoubtedly bring more war to it.

What I propose is reintegration at the rank of corporal and with a bomb collar set to detonate if she were to tamper with it or venture too far from Major Gunther's tank. The collar would also be set to detonate should the Major Gunther fail to enter a code into the signal transmitter in his tank every 24 hours, to prevent her from simply hijacking the tank of course.

In addition, an array could be tattooed on her torso so that any elementalist could immobilize her - on the CO's order of course-.

"

>>22480808

Your inability to apprehend a highly trained paranormal unit of undead is excused.

However, I would like to point out, from reports of others that it was the Black Deserters themselves that had torn open the Vinculum gate and released everyone, even you, and us from the magical realm of mead and battle. Your blame lies with them and not Iffram. Much like everyone else's grievances here, we have all been torn from our un-lives. Perhaps we might also be compelled to extract vengeance on Iffram, then? When the damage they have suffered is just as grievous if not greater than what Ragnyll suffered during the Voss invasion ?

What other charges do you have against Iffram, that would justify your grievance and intent to act against them ?

>>22480808
"She wants a realm? Bah. If she's willing to play ball, I'd listen to her, but that shit... disgusting..." Ralin mutters to his compatriots nearby, "Course, we could use a Lieutenant I guess, as long as the Major and Captain can gainsay her so there's no confusion in the ranks, but only if she's gonna give up these mad schemes. If she won't... well, what proof do we have that she didn't CAUSE all this? Let's just turn her over to Iffram, say we think she might have been fucking with them, and let them handle it. Wash our hands of it."

>>22480969

Now now, while the measure exists. We treat the defendants agency of choice with the utmost care. But it is noted that Ragnyll acts to preserve and defend itself on the choice it thinks best. Right now, it cannot afford to entertain the ramifications of one person's will. Should the Council in Ragnyll deem it fit, then we shall act in accordance but, aheh...

>>22480998

I cannot act on such lack of proof, unfortunately. If we do , we accept that we have lied to a nation to scapegoat the blame to a single individual. It will not do as a first resort.

>>22481151
The private pulls his beret down over his face, "Beg pardon sir. Didn't mean to address the court."

>>22480993
Well then, seeing as we are in an impasse here is my proposal, I'm ready to drop the realm part of my demand if you give me the black deserter as you said they are the one that should pay, Iffram still has to compensate me for my vrank body though and I'll be asking for Excaliber as it is the only thing I know they possess and has a greater value from there we can negotiate. If you want to talk about revenge, I'm sure a lot of citizen from this town would love to voice their grievance to Arthur for moving the Royal Army out of town. I just hope from Iffram this is an isolated case and not a generalized trend.

>>22481747

Hmmmmm this is more digestible than your previous terms, we will consider bringing the black deserters to justice with extreme prejudice.

However your need for the Excalibur- a national artifact- is questionable and would require a hearing from an Ifframi representative as per consolidated myths and lores about the artifact- is placed solely under the Authority of a " Lady of the Lake" ... as for the Royal Army's injustice, it would require investigation,possibly from the mouths of the Black deserters themselves. Either way- it would seem that we have found our in, Excaliber or no.

In return what have you to offer us to undergo such processes ? Note that it is the men of this unit's common interest that you must appeal to.

>>22481747
"I can live with these terms."

>>22481747
"To interject again,reports state that it was the Black Deserters that brought you back. Therefore, again it is the Black Deserters who robbed you of your vrankhood.

Why is it then that you demand compensation from Iffram?"

"Ah hel. I can't take this anymore. Mr. Truman, this woman is obviously mad. Ain't excalibur, like, I dunno, the same thing as Lead Counselor position on the council sir? What if she was asking to be named Lead Counselor? without election, just because she felt she had been slighted by Ragnyll?"

He sighs, pulling off his beret, "Just... look, she wants to help us fight death gods and deserters? That's all well and good. But she's going to drag us into a war, when we're already fighting on two fronts, and what happens when the Aeonians see a chance and they decide to "unite" the area under their Book of the Gun... I dunno sir, just a country boy's opinion."

I kinda agree, I have no desire to see Iffram and Voss tied any closer then they are, which demanding this Excalibus might very well do. Remember they are already on friendly terms. Their evokers alone would mean a much tougher fight for Ragnyll when backed with Voss weaponry.

>>22482146
>>22482225
"She said she'd ask for it first, so let her."

"Um, my point Captain, Ma'am... is that just asking might be insult enough... Ifframi are, you know, Medieval? Weren't nobles back in the horse and armor and lance days all prideful and stuff?"

>>22481938
I can bring them my expertise in fighting deathgods and depending in what state the Black Deserter are given to me specialized shock troops. Don't forget that you'll also need someone to garrison and watch over this town when IronCommand decide to bring Helghast back to Ragnyll unless you want to leave the population to the goblin.
>>22482104
The black deserter called me back yes, they weren't the one that cast the resurrection spell
robbing me of my vrank body after I kindly asked to be allowed to leave the school ground. Also they gave me these horrible blond hair.
>>22482146
You're talking about someone that destroyed a friendly unit to prevent that kind of war already boy. I know the full extent of the danger they represent.

>>22482146

"Well, I'll also mention the military threw m- Er... a friend of mine into the mental ward for less egregious rantings than claiming world domination. And claiming compensation for a body that ceased existing long ago is a bit... strange to say the least. The Major seems to believe she's entitled to her demands, I'm not sure she's got a case for it."

"You want a vrank body... sure... fine... cool... can't we... you know, build you a new one? Back in Ragnyll, ask Iffram to provide you with the ibonyte for the operation and materials, we all go home happy, the black deserters can be mopped up by the Ifframi with you acting as a consultant to take them under your wing, and then bring them back to fight for Ragnyll in the war."

>>22481747
>>22481938
These new terms seem more acceptable, though I agree with Truman. You'll have to find a way to negotiate with the Iffram through proper channels over your claim to Excalibur.

>>22482411
The only person able to create it was a fugitive last I knew.

>>22482459
"Then go find them... you'll probably find it a lot easier than getting your hands on this nation's leader picker thing..."

>>22482489
Then I'll add Helena and Oderkonn to be put under my service and pardoned of whatever crimes they may be accused of, should we find them in any case.

>>22482489
"Do me a favor Private, keep your mouth shut on matters you know nothing about. You raise a good point Mana, but Oderkonn and Helena's last known whereabouts was heading into Voss. Peppers possibly has learned enough by now to create Vranks, and I remember a certain Mechanist who could assist if she was willing."

>>22482537
"Yes Captain." He bows his head and shuts his mouth tight.

>>22482537
"Yes, but would not converting her to vrankhood once again catch the attention of Aeon?"

>>22482573
Aeon Inquisition was fine with Vrank last time we talked, though I had to kill a rogue caster during the meeting.

>>22482600
"Yes... but they were fine with it because you were serving their interests. Even the Aeon can bow to practicality."

>>22482750
"How is it that you know of this?"

>>22482893
"Heh, I've read my share of reports. I am not so ancient, and I was serving in the military during this war. But I'm not on trial here."

>>22482949
"There were no reports or anything of that."

>>22482998
"Attention to the matter at hand, if you will. My points stand."

I see... from the looks of it. We are handling someone that could equally incur war from both sides. I will state this again.

Because we compromise her freedom of presence, and because she compromises our diplomatic status, we must come to an agreement- if not a short term goal. That agreement so far is the subjugation and capture of the Black Deserters such that we lost souls may excuse ourselves and return to our war with the real enemy that we from the land of death all know.

Is there agreement to this ? Major Gunther, what are your final terms.

>>22483121
Well then in any case, Truman and Gunther I'm sure you won't mind if I train the civilian of Ragtown as soldier, it is a time honored Ragnyllian tradition and they will need to be able to defend themselves once Helghast leave. We wouldn't want to leave them to be massacred by goblin or another danger of the wyld.

>>22483121
Yes, that sounds acceptable. As long as Mana helps us arrest the Black Deserters, that should be enough to convince Iffram to let us off the hook. Then Mana can go about trying to convince them to let go of Excalibur.

However, once we get this whole diplomatic and Black Deserter situation resolved, I'm taking the Hellghasts and any Ragnyll refugees back home. No exceptions.

>>22483161
"Well that took longer than necessary, c'mon Mana, I'll show you to your quarters, then we can start figuring out how to turn these townspeople into a fighting force worthy of Ragnyll."

She starts to lead her away, but not before shooting a quick look at Truman.

>>22483189
((Really fucking hope this doesn't fuck with the iffram campaign))

>>22483377
[Bad enough that we may end up having half the base workforce walk off without us.]

"Well now that is settled, I'm going to go get a sandwitch. Haven't had anything to eat since I was brought back..."

>>22483161
I don't see a problem with that, but until you fulfill your promise of helping us catch the Black Deserters, you're still technically our prisoner and as such, you'll be under 24 hour guard to make sure you uphold your end of the deal.

>>22483482
"I'm going set up the bloody workshop. I need to give this fucking thing a tune up, and I want to help set up the workshop for duty. I gotta get to cutting up that bloody crashed plane and any other wreckage we got. Major, I take it I have permission to begin working on getting that part of the town ready?"

I volunteer to keep an eye on her Major.

Mmm It was such a long time ago that I had... forgotten.

>>22484081
"They never did catch those loyalists that killed you either, what a shame."

Also anybody got 17 xp to spare? Would help me get that aspect and make me more survivable next time.

Eh, nothing really stopping you.

Just saying that Vonc should get a promotion >_> Guy's served amazingly and landed some awesome blows on the top, plus the guy took down 2 full knights and was here for pretty much every single round.

>>22484644
Still thinking of what aspect to take to be a mobile raiding force. Because it means I'l have to spend fight 2 as that class and be threading on dangerous ground.

Would the Serpent aspect upgrade work with my Terran? Melee for the drills, silenced weapons for the side-guns and camo to approach silently/pass as some piece of land.

Or Armadillo...yeah that's a cool one. Unless Xeno can work with a vehicle.

Private Ralin stared at Captain Isane dumbfounded, "You... you what? An... An officer barracks? But, this building is exposed!"

"Okay, okay, fine, but I'm half way done unpacking, I mean, comeon, right? Can't you take the- Okay, okay, okay, I get it, I get it. But Really really? Do we need to do this? I mean, I wanted to consolidate our buildings, leave some for the civvies... but alright, here's the new schematics,"

He sighes and turns back to the people who were helping him unload the equipment for weapon's assembly and ammo manufacture, plus equipment modifications.

"Alright boys, pack it up, we got to drag it across town now."

>>22483755
It was midway through the thirteenth sandwhich, and a few of the other soldiers had gathered around. "Larger than a wagon and horse, claws that can sheer the toughest steel and carapace that could stop the sharpest blow. And fast too. A strider might just be able to keep ahead of one. Now imagine hundreds of them. Thousands of them, charging forward. Tunneling, the sound of frying meats... tireless, they could chase you for weeks. In the dark, in the airless, soundless places they could follow you. "
Another sandwitch down. He takes another sandwitch from an increasingly wary soldier.
"They followed the larger ones, the clever, smarter ones. Small compound eyes, terrible vision. No olfactory sense of note, no ears. But they could see you, always see you. Something in the way they hunt, how they /know/ where their prey is..."

"Worst yet!" he'd cut in, flask of hard liquor in his hand, "Some of them would look at you, and in the blink of an eye, reappear elsewhere, your best friend chopped to pieces without you ever knowing why. No one was safe, no distance could stop them, mine fields did not explode, bullets did not reach and swords missed altogether."

He'd take a sip of the liquid and with satisfied grunt, look back into the eyes of the soldiers, "This wasn't teleportation, or illusions, or nothing! This was real, it was death, and it was unstoppable..."

>>22484936
Minor edit, I need a space to train this Rag Tag group of civilian. Don't worry I don't claim any space that was used.

>>22484995
"WHO THE HELL ALTERED MY PLANS!"

Ralin rages, stamping up into the still incomplete tower workshop.

"ADVISER! YOU UNDEAD IFFRAMI BASTARD I'LL GUT YOU! WHERE THE FUCK ARE THE GUN EMPLACEMENTS!? THEY'RE SUPPOSED TO GO IN THE TOWER YOU CONIVING WITCHSPAWN! YOU WANT WORKSHOP SPACE YOU'LL WORK IT OUT IN TIME SHARES LIKE THE REST OF US!"

>>22485054
"Right, looks good. No reason this couldn't work. I'll see about getting some targets and stuff put up around the edge, and some ropes tied around the trunks to avoid killing the trees during melee practice"

His voice is cold and clipped, it's obvious he holds no like, or trust, for the former Major.

>>22484936
>>22484995

"Alright, what the hell are you maggots squabbling about? You want a map, you'll get one in the next 24 hours! Until then, go wash out whatever passes for a damn lavatory in this place!"

"Hm I could get used to that tone..."

>>22485133
And so it was that the next time Cpl Clyde had to use the toilet, he would see a curious design in in bowl. One similar to the arrays that had been used outside in battle.

Then he would get a shower.

Gee I wonder who did that.

Actually scratch all of that, will we ever gain new aspects other then those on the list?

>>22485289
It is very unlikely.

18 Ghouls
6 Unmen
Wyrm Assist
6 Turns

>Upgrade Bitank to have +1 Damage Reduction (DR1)

While there was still heated negotiations going on for where exactly everything went, Clover still was able to get some of the supplies needed to continue working on his Bitank (and a little needed for his rumbling stomach). Thankfully it suffered little damage in the battle (barring some ghoul blood on its legs) but it still needed some work to fix it up from its past life. He hefted some heavy plating and began to attach it to his tank. It would slow the girl down yes, but it would make him safer, and he would rather not die again. Satisfied with the extra plating, he paints a 4-leaf clover on the side.

"For good luck girl."

Content but tired, Clover sits atop his bitank, feet dangling over the edge. Reaching into his pocket , he pulls out a harmonica, one of his keepsakes that seemed to have survived everything, and begins playing.

Hey...now I think one of the real questions a lot of us are wondering here, is what year are we in now. The rest of the exdeads, myself included, are wondering where we stand in the living's timeline. I personally died 1 month after the start of the voss-ragnyll war, and I know some died before war even broke out, so it's a changing perspective.

...... report pending on the rest. There seems to be newer weapon types. On a hunch i checked its flight manifest. Aerial supply plane lifted off 566 during the Phantom Train op, it's possible that it was trying to send supplies to Ragnyllian frontlines.

Will have to test them out...

[giving 17xp to Ralin]
44-17=27
Here we go, today we'll be training on how to take hit to non-vital area. Hahahaha

>>22485642
I'l assume you're our quartermaster? I've never heard of half of those new weapons in this list, and is that thing there, the pencil a joke, or an actual code name for some dinky rapier?"

>>22485655
Ralin spent the next few days between working on getting the town into a manner fit to live in and defend, and getting the tar beaten out of him professionally from Mana, and learning from it.

By the end of it, Ralin had a good understanding of it, more than that, he spent enough time on the ground of the park that he often saw the tough, durable, winter scavenger beetles every time he fell, he saw them carrying enormous loads, and tearing into tough wood with slightly acidic pincers. And he realized, "This, this I can use."

Pvt. Ralin took up the aspect of the Scarab.

>Aspect of the Scarab:
>>All weapons count as Crushing, and destroy terrain completely or knock back organics.

Why dont I test them on you...

>>22485728
Compared to getting stabbed by gigantic xeno pincers and poisoned horns, I'd almost welcome it.

Azure looks over the Sturm she had selected appreciately. It was beautiful.

"Do you think I could have her? I'll treat her well."

>>22485899
"Don't worry, we've got the extras we need, so take it, we'll need the extra firepower."

>>22485899
"Yeah, just don't lose it."

That one time in Hel where we stole a bunch of Aeon spears and armor units, that was a good time...*fiddles looking around the newly arrived weapons and equipment*
