+++ Level 9 - The Airbase +++

After a bit of minor terrorism, the guards were sufficiently distracted by the panicking crowds to allow your quick ascent to 9th level of the hive. You were now around a kilometer above sea level and there was a fair bit of air traffic on the area.

Hanging off the ledge of the hostile airbase, you saw a lot of these towers. Hangars stacked on hangars, most of them seemingly open and with planes presumably ready for takeoff the moment the order is given, and landing strips, which seemingly allowed aircraft to be taxie'd to these towers for safekeeping.

The thought of stealing all of them and bringing them back crossed your mind, but as it stood, even destroying them would be a huge undertaking as there were hundreds of aircraft within these towers and 4 kilograms of explosives could hardly bring down even one of these towers.

About the edge of the level were these big anti-air guns dotted about the place, or perhaps they were artillery guns? Hard to say, an earthshaker is an earthshaker no matter which way you pointed it. You did not however, see any ammunition for them cluttered about. Guess they were smart enough to not leave that stuff lying around.

There's a lot of military staff about the area, albeit most of them were non-combat personnel or pilots and thusly only carrying pistols by their side. You also spotted several guards doing their rounds about the compound, all of them armed with bolters.

The outer edge of the compound seemed to be relatively sparsely populated at least, perhaps because everyone's got a job to do? Or perhaps they were confident nobody would get this far.

Question was what to do next...
> [Prioritize the VIPs] Break into one of the hangars and try to steal an aircraft
> [Sabotage 1] Attempt to sneak around and look for their prometheum stockpile
> [Sabotage 2] Attempt to sneak around and look for their ammo stockpile
> Write-in

>>4835485
Sabotage 2 BUT rig it so the ammo explodes when they try to take ammo from the depot

>>4835485
> [Sabotage 1] Attempt to sneak around and look for their prometheum stockpile
> [Sabotage 2] Attempt to sneak around and look for their ammo stockpile
> Write-in
Do both. 1 demo pack per stockpile, cleverly hidden deep in the piles. When we need a distraction we'll detonate them.

>>4835485
>Prioritize VIPs
We can always come back here after we killed the big boys. Steal a plane and ram it to wherever they work at.

>>4835491
If we can do this. If not, set a long timer and hide it deep, then try and steal a plane.

Getting the aircraft offline is the strategic objective and the VIPs are just one avenue for it. Great if we get both but taking out the rearmament capacity is a direct win.

It should be pointed out that sneaking around within a military compound will be a highly difficult check, requiring a perception check to find, a stealth check to sneak and tech-check for demolitions for each ammo and fuel depot separately.

>Stealth --> Scrutiny --> Tech Use --> Stealth
To basically set up one fuel depot or ammo stockpile to blow.

>>4835508
How many depos are we talking about and, if we fail a perception check to spot any, can we pivot to stealing a plane instead?

>>4835508
Oh
> [Prioritize the VIPs] Break into one of the hangars and try to steal an aircraft

>>4835495
I support this action.

>>4835508
Oh, uhm.

In that case, I only support stealing a plane. Fuck that noise.

Also, if we blow a depot do we have a reasonable chance to just run/jump/fly to a plane without getting shat on with autoguns etc. seeing as the security is focused on AA rather than ground combat?

>>4835517
Make sure to take the flight captains hats in the planes.

>>4835519
That is something you would not know. Ypu could try and interrogate someone to see if they would know, but naturally, trying to grab a soldier had it's own problems because everyone has at least a pistol.

>>4835531
No I mean from our (Int) Common Lore (War) +10 as to how air staging ops the size of hives manage their ammo. Do they rather hoard it in a few central locations or is it spread out by every plane individually. Big picture stuff.

>>4835528
Well it would be reasonable to assume they'd be fairly distracted by their base being under attack from inside.

>>4835534
Ah, fair enough call. Give me d100 to see if you'd know anything about how they'd organize fuel and ammo depots on a hive.

WAR YEAH

Rolled 33 (1d100)

>>4835540

>>4835540
Anyway, the most basic information is they keep the ammo a good distance from their HQ so the thing we are planning to do anyway wouldnt decimate their control structure.

>>4835546
That's good enough for you to know that the orthodox practice in hive defense is to have a separate stockpile for every single flight group.

This means every 200 planes or so have their own separate depots where they draw their munitions from.

Your report stated approximately 1400 or 1600 active aircraft operating from the hive if I remember correctly, thus it would translate to 8-7 stockpiles of munitions and fuel.

>>4835553
So question is whether 200 planes are worth it to potentially get gimped before we reach the top. Methinks probably not. Switching to VIP. >>4835506

As to their location? Well, orthodox combat doctrine doesn't go into detail beyond saying it needs to be accessible by the group it is assigned to, which generally speaking just means you can transport a new set of ammo and a fuel truck on landing site before the plane finishes its sortie.

>>4835562
So likely a tower per group with the ammo depot in the bottom where they resupply to the planes in their hangars. Likely guarded well and armored to boot. Probably not worth the trouble.

>>4835570
Possibly. Good opportunity to earn big bucks, but also a good opportunity to eat a shitload of bolter rounds.

>>4835578
Need to destroy 500 planes to equal one VIP.

Not worth it, in cost/risk

>>4835578
We're not tonky enough for human grade bolter rounds, yet.

>>4835593
I dont even remember the bounties for destroyed or captured vehicles

>>4835603
10k destroyed aircraft
50k captured.

Aircraft cannot be replaced, so they are permanent damages.

>>4835593
It's 10k for every plane kill and 50k for capture.

>>4835578
VIP it is then. Like to keep the esophagus normal-sized and without gunpowder residue.

>>4835611
In theory, if we destroy all the promethium depots in the base effectively grounding the plane unless they have enough fuel to migrate to the next level friendly Hive, and the rebels choose not to skuttle their planes if and when the hive is claimed, could we claim the bounty on all the planes for a minimum pay out or 70mil?

Probably not. Best outcome I see if flying out of the hive and offloading the plane for 50k.

Maybe a speech check to convince a few weak willed personnel to turn on their friends in exchange for splitting the bounty of 50k with us. If we manage to convince them, we not only get a share of the cut per plane, but they also act as cannon fodder if they AA guns and other planes start shooting at us.

>>4835623
I think Kamakaze the plane into the governors house is the better idea.

>>4835627
The. We steal the govenors personal flying fortress plane?

>>4835635
Destroy the others first, then cut off the governors head and steal his gold plated bolt pistol and plane.

>>4835611
How likely are we to recieving a promotion if we succeed, or percentage wise how much closer would we be to a promotion?

> [Prioritize the VIPs] Break into one of the hangars and try to steal an aircraft

>>4835669
I imagine they would put us in a spec ops unit really. Well they already have but make it sort of our modus operandi, but to prevent us getting tossed about and overruled i can see a promotion ot captain or sergeant to carry out our orders properly.

>>4835676

This means we're going with 3, and 31.
The second shot... doesn't really hit, but probably irrelevant. See Catachans use knives for a reason.

Here's the base damage and...

Rolled 8, 6 = 14 (2d10)

3 degrees of success.
Because Throwing Knives are for some reason considered Accurate weapons, they get 1d10 for every degree of success up to 2d10 of extra damage.

>>4835828
Wow that's pathetic

Alright, so in total, the throwing knife does 3+3+8+6 damage, meaning...

20 damage! Silent takedown complete.
This is actually in the rules.

>>4835828
because their knives are both a part of their culture ala Gurkha's and they are made of special DAOT metal that makes them super great?

>>4835839
That's just cool.

>>4835848
....this look so badass.

>>4835843
Not really, it's honestly because throwing knives are actually pretty fucking good against big creatures with little armor since you get extra bonuses for aiming with an accurate weapon and extra damage from degrees of success.

Let's say you get 10 degrees of success on knife throw. You can shift the 1d5 damage to 10 and then you are doing 13+2d10 damage.

Downside is their lackluster range, but a squad in throwing knife range is actually a threat to Chaos space marines.

>[ Thunderbolt acquired! ]

After dispatching the pilot, you now had full access to the Thunderbolt Heavy Fighter. In contrast to the usual tech level on the planet, this vessel was clearly not made locally as it had the Lascannons loaded on it, as well as the branding of Forge World Bakka on it.

Nevertheless, the dead guy surely wasn't gonna miss it. Of course, you didn't have any sort of flight clearance, but what's another plane in the skies, right?

By all means, you were no fighter ace, but getting from point A to B? You could do that. Well, in theory. You got some simulation and hypno-indoctrination training for this, so it should work out. Probably. After all, same airframe your army used.

You crawled to the cockpit, somewhat cramped what with all your gear, but luckily you still managed to fit in, albeit barely. STC based construction was a marvel of human ingenuity, especially when it came to logistics, seeing how storage of seemingly impossible quantities of ammunition could be done without disturbing the external aesthetically.

You presume it was on the same principle that you could fit on a Thunderbolt cockpit whilst wearing void armor, thunder hammer, jetpack and copious amounts of explosives.

Placing your finger on the Power Rune, you did quick pre-flight check on fuel, ammo, engine status and so on before just pushing the thrust to max and activating the flaps. It was go time.

Soon after, the vox came to life.

You ride the wind, driving your jump jets to brake your descent as you fall through the heavens on wings of fire. With hammer in hand, you enter the domain of the mighty and witnessed the carnage you had wrought.

Corpses of civil servants, of bureaucrats and politicians. Of security personnel and some others who just happened to be there. Destroyed artworks and savaged architecture, cogitator terminals shattered.

Whatever was going on in this room wasn't going on any further. Alas, it wasn't just one room. The ordnance (that includes the aircraft), had cleaved a path of destruction in their wake, leaving dead and wounded in it's wake as they traveled deeper into the complex.

As you walked through the wreckage, you realized one thing painfully clearly. You had no idea where you were going and security would be on your ass pretty soon. For now, you had only one real way of getting around.

> [ Council Chambers ]

The Council chamber seems like the best opportunity to catch them all in same place, so long as they're still there. You hit the mechanicum rune of summoning on the wall.

The elevatus is offline. Typical. Either it's busted because you dumped a metric buttload of ordnance to the building or they simply disabled it remotely.

Regardless, you were reasonably close to the council chambers, just had to find a way down on which you had a couple of options. Either you'd bust open the elevatus shaft and dive in or use the stairs.

Alternatively, you could try to rapple down on the outside of the building, but with all the thunderbolts out there, that wasn't much of an option.

Although, if you want to go in loud, you could always just smash through floors with Thunder hammer to make them shit their pants.

As you start hearing bunch of people rushing to your position, you make a quick choice. It's hammer time. You make a quick estimation on where the council chamber might be, grab your thunder hammer and right the lightning, counting the floors as you go.

You know the problem with flame weapons?
We have burnt two hive honour guard hats. I bet those hats had a decent hatcoin value.

What? People say this is crack but remember we are a perpetual. Having some weird eccentricity of collecting shit from our deployment or mission is a given.

Some people collect rocks or dort from the areas of their deployment. We do hats. Military hats to be precise, and only because the full uniform is not easy to get during a running gunfight. Also the uniforms is probably not in mint condition what with us having to usually kill the wearer.

Usually because we are not going to hunt down one of the few remaining thunder warriors in existence. Those guys take out Astartes squads by their lonesome.

By our extensive collection of haberdashery and other knickknacks we will be able to amass a vast treasuretrove of imperial history and culture as we age.

You enter to the council chambers. It seems to be defended by guards who have barricaded the door from this side with random junk.

They also have flipped tables as makeshift cover, which does jack shit because you're a melee fighter anyways.
