we are starting.
Compiling forces.

SHITSHITSHIT can I still get in? Fucking food, why did I have to eat instead of monitoring /tg/??

Posting up quick recon of as per intel's materials.

Point 1 ) Seems to be a proper staging area as long as lines are held.
Point 2) High ground, coverage of the vanguard zone of deployment.
Point 3) Ridgeline outlooking the entire map, no visible walking paths, may provide tactical advantage.
Point 4) Unknown building, suspect to being the Wilder-group's staging.

Arrows depict direct paths which can funnel any hostiles if encountered. Possible killzone establishment points.

Hatched areas depict strongest hazard areas.
The treeline is dense, shaded, and full of cover, perfect for hostile ambush. The waterline, as we found out in the last mission, is a possible enemy striking point, use caution.

-Report out-

>>15964376
>>15964386

"Easy enough."

Winters begins hooking a reel camera to the connection between the chassis and the gatling gun.

Summers: "... What the hell are you doing."
Winters: "First deployment of the Gryffon super heavy armor, AND the first time I get to shoot weres. This is one for the reels, baby."
Summers: "This isn't a game, Winters! People are going to be dying!"
Winters: "YES! BECAUSE WE'RE GOING TO KILL THEM."

>>15964443
"Hey, Three Seasons! Stuff it and prepare for a fight, Weres are no joke, they chew up artillery like nothing."

>>15964443
Alphonse snatches the camera and smashes it on the ground.

"We are killing ragnyllians here, ones that have embraced lycanthropy. No one will see this, use your head."

That reminds me, anyone capable of precision shooting, or detaining people, we need a few alive. Obviously, there is a greater force at work, attempting to corrupt our soldiers, we need one alive to interrogate, or we'll never find the source of the lycanthropy, and this will only happen again. This is a request, not an order.

>>15964472

Winters: "Heh, he liked my squad name."
Summers/Springer: "Dammit."

Right, my upgrades.

+1 to hit, +1 crewman

>>15964435
I suspect number four is the mission that the missionaries were based from.

Speaking of, it may be considered Holy ground. I'd highly advise that Lt. Rip NOT tread near.

>>15964486

Winters: "OH COME ON DO YOU THINK THEY HAND THOSE OUT FOR FREE?"
Summers: "Heh. Try explaining that one to the requisitions officer."
Winters: "Fuck you and the Strider you rode in on."

Just make sure none of you get infected, I'd hate to have to kill you.

Command, requesting information on possible cures for lycanthropy, preferably plant based.

I've heard wolfsbane may be of use, could it cure the infection before someone turned?

"Time to read up on Lycanthropes"

Requesting Intel on the werewolf species.

>>15964571
Willhelm takes a sprig of wolfsbane out of his duster pocket, and hands it to Al. "Entangling them with this certainly can't hurt, Green Thumb."

>>15964562

"Can't promise that ma'ma, but if I do all I ask is you let me keep fighting till they kill me or we kill them."

" Hark ! The missionaries are in that old chapel !"

" Please ! Someone help us, we have wounded down here ! and I think theres something in the woods ! "

Everyone. Comes. Back. Together.
We're likely to lose a lot of countrymen today, lets at least make sure we're not on that list.

Winters, your team throws out more suppressive fire than anyone, we'll need you on deck on a moment's notice, specially if there's a chance of shifty-types. We don't want a repeat of Dandelion where the line nearly got torn to shreds.

Al, you showed me you've got the sparkles, make me proud brother, I'll keep you covered.

Sorry for cluttering the thread, but will it be possible for new recruits to spawn at a flag at some point? I mostly paid attention to the story and basic rules while reading through the archives

>>15964715
You have to say so during an action phase, which mean you missed your window until the next one.

>>15964715

>You should be able to deploy at a flag next phase. Just declare that you're deploying (and at which flag if there's ever more than one) and take your actions like normal.

>because it's obligatory in this sort of situation,

"It's quiet. Too quiet..."

Ey tophats, I don't see this staying cool for much longer. I feel like I'm being watched. Might wanna investigate that ruined church before shit turns sour. Just a suggestion.

Or hell, has anyone scanned the radio channels?

rolled 7, 5 = 12

>>15964801
"Good point, If we call out their leaders, this may turn out better for everyone."

Winters: "Hmm... I don't like not having targets to shoot at. I don't know what to do without them."
Summers: "See? Blood thirsty. You're in it for the killing."
Winters: "I am not! I have my reasons for fighting!"
Summers: "Oh really? What are they?"
Winters: "None of your business."
Summers: "Uh huh."

"We need more recon. Rip, do your eyes see anything?"

>>15964821
"What did I say about this mission, we aren't here to make friends, but to kill them. Unless you want to be the next unit on the "to purge" list."

>>15964873
"My idea was more oriented to calling them out of hiding so that we can get this over with easier."

>>15964873
>>15964879
"Yeah Captain, quit seeing treason everywhere, you're starting to sound like that Inquisitor." Willhelm laughs.

Enemy Phase
" This is where they took the missionaries, damn Voss bastards are gonna feed them to the ghouls to give Ragnyll bad press..."

" Wait.. is that unit Hellghast ? "

" So it was true... They sent them to wipe us out... "

>>15964964

>You are new. When it's our phase, explicitly state you are going to deploy at our flag. You may follow it immediately with your actions, such as moving from said flag.

Oh shit, I see a LOT of ghouls coming down from the northwest.

>>15965000
"Ghouls? Are the Deserters supposed to be here? If not, then this is a Voss trap, and killing the werewolves just got knocked down a rung on the to-kill ladder!"

>>15965025
Well, they sure as shit don't look like they're wearing Ragnyllian colors. Pretty suer they're Voss.

You know that itch I had from feeling watched? Turns out that itch was full on barrack-rot.
We're going to need reinforcement west..

Even if theres Voss in the woods, Wilder's team might know we came here to force them into retirement. So they've got just as much reason to take us down.

DON'T let your guard down.
>Hodr & Team uselessly dig in deeper.

Summers: "Ghouls? I thought we were supposed to be killing werewolves?"
Springer: "Maybe they're using ghouls too, now?"
Winters: "Something's not right here..."

"Pfft simply a road bump to deal with. Ghoul are weak after all."

I'm friggin scared, 1 more round of shots before reload. Vanderbuss arriving and Al's casting is probaby gonna save my ass with everying hauling ass to fight ghouls.

If we ever survive this fiasco, I say we blame everything on Tavish.

>>15966606
I say that's a good plan. It's always Tavish's fault,

>>15966598

Low rolls are good rolls, you know.

Also, the Ragnyll guys are gonna focus on the Voss guys, instead of us, thanks to Willhelm's diplomacy.

It was an honest mistake, besides, he just got his backside raked by an angry Ragnyll Werewolf, if he somehow survives, I think he'd best be assigned to fetching the Lieutenant's "lunch" from now on.

So, uh, any ideas on how to repel those werewolves caving in our right flank?

>>15966699
Oh we'll learn from this mistake I hope. Those that survive, anyway...

Ah, c'mon guys, cut Tavish a break. We were all twitchy privates once (And some of us still are) What's done is done, all we can do now is hope to jump quick enough from the fan that got shitpelted. I think getting ripped apart is punishment enough, though I do like the ring of "pulling a Tavish"

Willhelm holds the bloodied reciever up to his face.
"Captain...I know we didn't agree about this fight...Understatement of the year, actually"
He coughs the blood out of his mouth.
"I want you to know I respect your love for Hellghast, but it blinded you. Aeon played you, and Command. Look at Wilders."
"Even as a werewolf, a half human animal, he still felt the knife twisting in his back..."
"We're not just food to him, we're brothers, brothers who just took his trust and burned it at the stake."
"Look at them, Captain Mana. What makes them monsters, and Helena, you, and Rip, human beings."
"The answer is heart, and dammit Captain, they still have the hearts of Ragnyllian soldiers...Call off the hounds, use your metal brain. If we keep fighting, more people like Harrison are going to die for nothing."

"Don't be a pawn of Aeon. Let me and Soap find the truth, If I'm wrong, you can kill me WITH them."

>>15966850
"Fine by me, I don't need soldiers that show affection for the enemy. You're probably infected so I would have had no choice in the matter anyways."

>>15966892
"Hah. Right. Infected. Maybe. Pardon me ma'am, but I seem to be delirious from the blood loss and am far too wounded to take direct action, I'm going to find some cover so I don't get in your way."

Enemy Phase Begins:
> Voss Leadership has gone silent.

>>15967030

" Alright ladies. It's time to clean up. We die here, we'll die like men. Those who dont like it can run away while they still can "

"Cap'n? Is that wise? I mean, Willhelm's still injured, Voss ghouls are still around, and those missionaries need extracting."

"Plus, wouldn't killin' 'em make us... hypocrites? Why not just say we did an' let the Were's go and the clean ones stick with us?"

Helena: That sword.... Sol ? So this is where you ended up...

This is bad , our men that were mauled within an inch of their life risks infection, Commander. They may end up inheriting the curse of the Lycanthrope.

House Father Zwei: Excuse me, Sir-Knight that sword it's it's the legendary Sol, wield by one of the heroes of the purge. It's said that those who are blessed with its divine blade be cut out of all their curses.

But for a price, it will literally cost one arm. Or one leg. We have seen how Wilders have overcome the curse with his humanity and yet.... It is a shame, but an inevitable act of providence that they be taken by you.

So rip wanna test if it can cure you?

rolled 9, 5 = 14

I...I think I'm just going to go bury bodies, and help carry any wounded to the mission. This is all a little over my head

" Lycanthrope should be taken seriously lad, A man goes blood wild at the night and therell be nothing keeping him from striking out at just about anyone. But still, I cannot judge against those who walk on two different sets of legs. Aeon has been blind to human compassion and has not learned from their mistake "

>>15967834

"No offense Lieutenant, but considering all the men we just killed for being were's it'd be kind of hypocritical of us to let some of our men turn. And I'd be rather pissed about it myself."

>>15967851

D:

Goddamnit, you shoulda said something weird.

>Nice seeing you again

rolled 7 = 7

>>15967861
"Ya know I am quite curious how a Holy Aeon Father found himself in this mess?"

>>15967861
Sadly, Aeon doesn't leave me any choice in the matter. So it will be a matter of what body part you want to me to cut, I can even wait until Oderkonn get here so he can make you brand new mechanical limbs.

>>15967854
>>15967854

" I hev become a monster along vith Helena. I vouldn't resort to such an easy escape, especially after all ze sings I did. I am a monster, Captain. I vish to stay "

>>15967861
"I wouldn't be surprised if it also take a part of the person's soul as well, some random spirit living in items trying to gain what it needs to reincarnate or something at best or is just malicious at worse. All the while..."

Alphonse trails off while contineing his ramblings.

>>15967879

"... Me and the boys say take our off arms. Me and Jones loose the left, Figs the right. Hopefully Oderkonn can fix us up some crazy steel-and-brass arms with guns in 'em."

>Or auto-deploying shields, boss.

>>15967879
"Before we start choppin off da limbs of our friends, lets try and find out more bout dis' sword. Would hate to find some hidden sort side effect."

>>15967879

"Why not just cut their left arms. That way Oderkonn can just make the same type of thing "

>>15967902
"What about you Helena? why don't you or Rip cure yourselves with the sword?"

>>15967900

"No need, detective. I know this sword well. And with mana holding it, nothing will go awry. It's Sol after all "

>>15967902
Fine by me, those that want to live go on the right, those that want to die go on the left.

>>15967780
>so I didn't need to self recover?
>and I recruited my own set of Sororitas?
>neat.

Hodr turns back from the altar, his new retinue, Ms. Altea and Ms. Dalian, stand by him in solemn silence, praying for the field of dead men surrounding them.

"I know this is a monumental relic. I know.
But I don't think Aeon wanted something like this going public, this was too convenient.."

"Something like this can uproot the hysteria over the threat of the supernatural couldn't it? It proves that you CAN go back.."

>>15967909

Because Sol would simply destroy us completely. It's a holy sword after all. We have blood on our hands. It only cures sin, not lives.

>>15967910
>I would like to have list of all the people that would need that if you kept a list command.

rolled 2 = 2

>>15967913
"if it's all the same to you, Captain...Shouldn't we check for the disease in the first place before we go lopping off limbs? Oh, and I'll take a Right Leg if I actually have the bug, please. Messed up my right knee when I was a kid, never did quite fix right."

>>15967913
"Whoa I know you are da Capt. and all but let's talk dis out. I mean we got till nightfall before anything happens so let's think bout this for a bit 'fore we get ta choppin."

Goddamn, couldn't the people who made this crap make their stuff a little more convenient to use?

I swear, goddamn Aeons and their total lack of the concept of user friendly hardware...

>>15967939
It will be too late by nightfall since it wouldn't cure them but simply allow them to keep their sanity

I did tests on the wounded.
A lot of men have turned up positive:

Vanderbuss's unit
WIllhelm
Springer who is in critical condition
Hodr .... Hans and Franz has passed on .

>>15967910
>>15967928
"would you mind sharing with me what you know of this sword, and the spirit within it? I am wary of relics like this, never know about curses or malicious spirits. If you can assuage my concerns, I'll have no problem with it..."

>>15967959

"Hey Oderkonn, you think you can whip us up some fancy, metal arms? Kind of hard to shoot a rifle one-handed, you know?"

>>15967950
Willhelm Sighs.

"So what's the deal here, I lop off a limb, but I'm still a lycan, but sane? Augmentics can't morph shape with me, so I'm pretty well screwed."

>>15967959
Very well, Vanderbuss and Willhelm already gave their ok, only Hodr is left and since springer is unconscious he doesn't have his say... you don't need your left leg while driving a stridder right?

3 left arm
1 right arm
1 right leg

>>15967960

" Alphonse... we are still along the Helena river, and I remember having my arms maimed right there. Sol is, was my sword. It was tempered with the ashes of its former owner, my great grandfather Solus Ignyll. And when I am ready, I wish to be struck down with it "

>>15967984
So What happens when we transform? Any metal limbs we have grafted on will just fall off or something, or be completely undersized.

>>15967959
"I... I fear'd as much.."
"I'm a lefty, so if you can make me something tight and sturdy for a solid punch and some gunwork, I'm all yours sir"

>>15967985
"I... I understand, if that's what you wish when the time comes if I'm still in working order I will be the one to strike that blow."

>>15967985
"Huh morbid, Still we don know how dose unit's got infected in da first place? An well I'm kinda lackin' any sort of witness to find out anything about it."

>>15967985
So I will repeat. Those who have bled under Sol's purfying blows will see their ails cut out from them and their binds with cursed powers severed. If one is too impure the blade will severe their being whole "

>>15967993
You won't transform, if used before the transformation it seems to cure you. While if used after it seems to allow you to keep your sanity.
>>15967996
Very well gather everyone, I have a butcher work to do.

"Right. get on with it Mana, I'll go first, my leg if you would."

>>15968021
"Heh.
When I signed up for the regular, I always thought it'd be a stray shell, a landmine, or even an overcooked masher.

Never thought it'd be my own captain.."

"Make it clean ma'am. This is a small price to pay for Ragnyll."

>>15968023
>If we could gloss over that part Im not a fan of rping chopping limb and it's 7AM and I want to sleep...

>>15967985
"Then it is the spirit of your grandfather within the blade? Very well."

" O father.. who art in Heaven... "

>Purchasing +1 to Rifle rating.

3 XP left if I did my calculations properly.

The Battle of Wassau.

Was not really a battle at all.
It was a culling.

Wilder's men intercepted a Vosskon plot to feed missionaries to ghouls in an attempt to exacerbate the Terror Aeon harbors against the Valknyres. At the same time, The Hellghast Unit arrives on their position under orders to take out the Lycan unit.

Skoll, Hellghast, and the Voss paranormal clash in a small forest enclosure. Until only Hellghast emerged with the missionaries. Skoll unit is eliminated. And will be remembered as heroes of Ragnyll in unmarked graves.

I will use the exp to buy a second crewman and an extra reload for Isara's cannons. That leaves 4 exp left over.

" Well if you'd upgrade to it, one leg prosthetic can be good for a number of things, like a knee machinegun, a foot jack, a cannon leg... all these are sorta experimental by the way....

Well Crap.
Precisely 10 exp.
I did not do very much this fight.

Gonna hold off on purchasing upgrades until the next War Room thread....which is....When?

>>15968156
By the way, do augmented limbs interfere with magic? I know Vranks can't do magic.

>>15968183
Hey, at least you did better than my 9xp, and a total action list of "Run into mission, point launcher at things that immediately get blown up by people quicker to put their orders in, weep impotently"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lGf2b1H91JA

" From the pages of the Ragnyllian field manual, your standard soldier's farewell.

" Grieve not for our fallen, for when they fell, they fell straight. They did not stray nor did their hearts betray. Look forward ,for they will be ahead guiding us on the road ahead. A road not as straight as theirs a spiral far deeper than their fall. O spirits, guide us in our dark hour for we too will join you before we rise like the pheonix again. "


" And so shall "
Welp, good night.

> Someone tell me the standardized price list for most of the upgrades?
> Standardized since I see some units got special abilities
> And how does one get augments like Mana? Fluff-wise? Just write it?
> Looking forward to collecting all aspects, if it is possible.

>>15968362
Upgrades run 10xp each. You can upgrade pretty much anything on your sheet, 1 extra action, movement, range, damage, ammo capacity, .5 hp, etc. You can also spend 10xp to augment, or buy replace your equipment (I believe so, at least). The only augments I can list off the top of my head are silent and armor piercing. And those might be specific to [A] rifles. Or you can take one piece of equipment from another class you've played as, for example switching out an [A] smg for the scout knife. I know there are probably class specific special abilities, but I don't know what they are. Aspects cost 20xp, and as far as I know you cannot have more than one. Body mods only happen in special cases. Mana is a beloved and high ranking soldier, so when she got blown up, they had her borged to save her. The operation is costly, takes a lot of time, and earns a lot of ire from Aeon and other concerned parties.

>Wait for the last action phase.
>Fall asleep for 4 hours.
>Springer's not actually dead, just missing a leg.
>Everything went better than expected.

Winters and Summers had returned to the mission several hours ago, with Summers at the controls of Springer's strider. She was still in the seat, and still had the were's claws going through her chest, attached to what was left of the werewolf that had attacked her.

The rearward area of the strider was filled with a profound and astounding amount of blood, bone fragments and gore, as if someone had fired a gatling cannon into someone at point blank range. Probably because that's exactly what happened. It's a wonder that Winters had managed to not hit Springer through all this.

Several hours later, Springer had been somewhat stabilized by some emergency care from the missionaries, and had her left leg rather unceremoniously hacked off to prevent succumbing to Lycanthropy. Winters and Summers weren't allowed to see her right now; she was still in critical condition, and having her leg cut off wasn't helping anything. They stood outside, in the yard of the mission house.

>>15968963
Summers: "It's a good thing the Captain was able to cure her, huh? A leg's better than a life."
Winters is still covered in blood. The range at which he'd fired at the were had been so close that quite a bit of it had splattered onto him. "If the Captain hadn't given the kill order, this wouldn't have happened in the first place."
Summers: "Oh come on, I thought you were looking forward to killing lycanthropes."
Winters: "Not like this. You may think I'm a bloodthirsty psycho but those were still men of Ragnyll. They fought the Voss, same as us. And not only did we kill them but we lost some of our own in the fight as well. You heard it too, the infantry lost some men, they're dead, not just in a bloody coma. They didn't just lose their legs, Summers. They lost their lives."
Summers: "Those guys gave themselves over to the curse of lycanthropy, Winters. They had to be put down."
Winters: "There are certain means you shouldn't go to into order to achieve your goals. I don't think becoming a werewolf to gain the power you need to survive is stepping over that line. They still had their humanity, their end goal was just, and the means they took didn't taint the character of their end goal. We butchered them for no good reason."
Summers: "... Wow... that's... deep, actually."
Winters: "What? I can have ethics too, you know."

>Counting up kills.
1 or 2 unknown, those guys in the river. Think they were casters, not sure.
13 or 14 ghouls, not really sure. Going with 13.
1 Werewolf.

Rounding down where I'm not sure about my kills, that's 16 EXP from kills this mission, if werewolves are worth 2 KP each. +10 for the mission, - 4 for the dead missionaries, added to the 3 EXP I already had puts me at 25 EXP.

If possible, I'd like to put in an armored cockpit augment for the striders, making the pilot immune to called shots, and a +1 bonus to the pilots' rating bonus. If I can't get the armored cockpit I'll just go with another +1 armor. Left with 5 EXP.

>>15969040
> Kinetic Topshield Approved. Pilots can't be disengaged unless they eject.

>>15969152

>Sweet, will fluff it once we get back to HQ.

>Note keeping
>Now at 16 xp

18 exp plus one dead ghoul and mission bonuses/penalties come out to 25...So is standing around in heavy armor and poking one ghoul when it wondered to close enough to qualify for vanguard aspects?
