You see a small copse of trees, possibly the last ones alive in this entire town, nestled away in a little atrium of a nearby building. I would have been impossible to spot from the ground.

"Demons, I think we've found our objective! Big round building, about seven hundred meters to the southeast!" You announce through the radio.

"Good! Because more and more of these guys are starting to show up!" Julia warns, punctuated by another boom from her cannon.

"How many?"

"Fifteen to twenty to my best guess."

Shambling 700 meters is going to take a long ass time. Rolling out 700 meters in a tank isn't.

"Julia, hold position. Let's finish these guys off." You say.

"Whatever you say, boss." Julia replies as her cannon roars again. Down below, you can see what was once a cafe collapse in a cloud of smoke and dust.

"We've got a pretty good vantage point up here, sir." Tarin points out. "I think me, Sam, and Artya can do better up here than on the ground."

"Good thinking, Tarin." You nod.

This way we can direct the direction to focus their fire.

>>25208278
JAGER STURMFUHRER.

>>25208781
Stay on the roof, we're more liable to get killed on the ground because of dem cannons.

>>25208781
You decide to stay up on the roof so you can get a better view of the Beasts' movements. Directly below you are Julia and Headcase along with Ramirez and Isolde, forming a rough semicircle around the lab's entrance.

Surrounding them is at least a dozen Beasts hidden in the ruins, peppering them with rifle fire. However, the Fenrir and Kilroy provide more than enough cover. However, another quick glance and you can see six more Beasts marching down the street towards the fighting.

>Orders?

>>25209272
Sam. Frag lance.

>>25209272
If Sam has her lance with her, order her to fire upon the Beasts moving up.

>>25209272
Have the Fenrir direct several round towards the street that they're approaching from. Then have the ones on top take out the remainder.

>>25208781

Holy shit guys, did you not get the memo that we REALLY don't want to fight these fuckers in the dark?

>>25209272
Have Fenrir put a few rounds down range to the incoming Beast. Roof also fires on the incoming targets.

Headcase, Ramirez, and Isolde keeps firing on the beast in the ruins.

>>25209363
Welcome to /tg/.

>>25209272
>We're getting overrun, prepare to move out

>>25209363
If we get rid of them now there's less of them to deal with during the night.

>>25209272
Frag lance to disperse them, order Alek to put head shots into them while they're recovering

>>25209411
Frags do jack all to them.

>>25209406

We don't even know how many are there, nor what happens in the dark.

As far as we know, it's instantly game over once night falls.

That statement is loaded with so many assumptions it's comical.

>>25209440
Not supposed to kill them, we want them to sit still for Alek.
Or do you not know what Disperse means.

>>25209470
We hit them with HE shells and Frags last time. They didn't disperse at all.

>>25209470

Read up on the last thread genius.

>>25209479
>>25209507

If they're stopping to direct fire at us then they're not advancing, ie sitting still for Alek.
Or are we still trying to tell me that I want them dead with the frag.

>>25209532
What I'm telling you is they'll walk/run right through that shit. Frags, HE shells, and shrapnel in general isn't going to phase these guys.

"Incoming Beasts from the street! Julia! Drop a round on them!" You order. "Eveybody on the roof will take care of the reinforcements. The rest of you take care of the Beasts here right now!"

Julia fires an HE round at the approaching reinforcements.

Headcase fires a shot at an entrenched enemy position.

Isolde fires her lance at another Beast.

Ramirez lets loose with his SMG.

Sam launches a frag shot at the reinforcements, while Tarin and Artya try and pick them off.

Alek takes a shot.

Unfortunately, a combination of range and cover make it tricky to make effective hits on the Beasts, with most shots missing. From what you can see, no significant damage has been done. However, Tarin and Alek score some hits on the reinforcements, knocking two of them down. The Beasts seem to hesitate for a moment, as if deciding which gunman to chase after.

The Beasts return fire, splitting it between the ground force and the roof.

>>25209730
It is currently midday. You still got plenty of time to get back before nightfall, assuming you don't get bogged down too much.

>>25209746
Fortunately, the Beasts seem to be having the same problems you are. One of the Beasts manages a hit on Isolde, but her armor soaks it.

It seems there aren't any more reinforcements coming, for now at least.

>>25209822

Do we have anything like smoke canisters or flashbangs or something? We could drop some of those as we make our retreat, perhaps?

>>25209822
LEG IT, we're too exposed here I feel, make for the objective, see if we can't ge a choke point somewhere down the line.

Have the roof squad try to cover the guys on the ground as they mobilise

>>25209822
>Let's get out of here before we're trapped
We really don't need an extended firefight in a dash-and-burn mission.

>>25209822
>Let's get out of here before we're trapped

We need to find a spot where we have cover and they don't. Where the objective is, is there any kind of courtyard around surrounding it? Might be a better place to hold up in.

>>25209850
>smoke canisters
I think we have those or at least bought them. I don't know if we have any on hand though.

>>25209889

Yeah, checking the pastebin --

"This position isn't defensible." You determine. Your backs are literally against the wall and there's not telling how many more Beasts are out there. It also doesn't help that they've got plenty of cover to hide behind here as well. "We're going to head straight for the objective! Full speed and don't stop for anything!"

You, Sam, Tarin, and Artya barrel down the stairs as Ramirez and Isolde throw out smoke grenades to cover the retreat. The moment you reach the door you remount your vehicles and their engines roar to life. As you move out you take some last parting shots at the Beasts.

Julia manages to score a good hit with her cannon, obliterating a Beast, while you and Ramirez manage to cut another one down with combined SMG bursts. Alek manages hit one of the Beasts in the neck, but it seems to inconvenience it more than actually hurt.

As the tanks pull away, the Beasts fire off their own parting volley.

>>25210099
Thanks to the smoke, the Beasts can't draw an accurate bead on you, though one ricochets off the Fenrir's plating perilously close to your head.

700 meters isn't exactly far on a tank going full speed, and soon enough you find yourselves in front of a roughly circular building It looks to be some sort of amphitheater. Of course, the tanks can't exactly fit inside without knocking down several walls, so they'll have to be left outside.

>Same drill as before? Or do you want to swap around squadmates?

>>25210174
same as before

>>25210174
I'd say same drill, with what I assume to be open-ish ground from here to where we just were our armour should manage just fine.
Lets go people

>>25210174
Just Tarin this time. (I'm assuming mute girl has to come for some reason). Everyone starts to dig in. Because god knows the Beast will be back.

>>25210174

Wanna try swapping out Sam for Isolde, kinda wish she was there before for Richter.

>>25210174

Is anybody low on HP or something? ((Some of the "near-miss" shots, for instance, might have been fluff ways of saying "You lost 1 HP" for all I know, so I'm asking.))

Hmm... Well, I say we leave both lancers (Sam and Isolde) to hold the line.


Whereas we take... I guess Tarin and Artya.

>>25210174
What's around this building? Open-ground, streets running all around it? Maybe smaller building... Details would be nice, for me at least.

We have Ragnite Nova 6 Zombies, anything goes.

>>25210258

Good point. He IS a Shocktrooper after all.

Jaeger, Tarin, Ramirez, Artya.

>>25210272

Oh man, I can't believe I only just realised we're basically reenacting Nazi Zombies.

Here's hoping that they appear again after this mission, they're an incredibly fun enemy.

>>25210341
God I hope not.

>>25210272
>>25210341
Technically they're Helghans.

>>25210359

What? Nobody else is bored of vanilla Imperials?

Y'all are pussies.

>>25210377

Bah, Ragnite Nova 6 Zombies sounds much more awesome.

>>25210391
I'm perfectly happy with the normal Imps we have to kill. Thanks.

>>25210391
I think most people would be wary of having the walking dead attempting to make sweet profane sciency love/murder to the living...

>>25210417
Too much of mouth full to say, personally.

>>25210391
Vanilla Imperials have the habit of dying when they get shot. These guys don't.

>>25210421

But they're so goddamn BORING, at least the Ragnite Nova 6 Zombies (God how I love that name) adds more suitably exotic variety.

>>25210454
That's nice cupcake. Couldn't care less.

>>25210431
>>25210447

That's sort of the point, they give a fucking challenge vanilla Imps simply don't have.

>>25210454

>>25210438

>>25210505
No. Not really. Not at all.

>>25210454
>implying Artya or whatever her name isn't a Ragnite Nova darsen 6 Zombies and will not join the demons therefor giving us exotic variety. or that the imperials aren't totally going to find this place and try to redo everything

>>25210247
Unlike the lab, the ground around here is mostly open. They can try sniping at you from the ruins, but they'll have to expose themselves in order to get closer. Unfortunately, you don't have a cliff at your back here to prevent flanking attacks.

>>25210174
"Alright, Tarin, Ramirez, you're with me. Artya, I assume you're coming with us?"

Artya nods.

NEVER BEEN HERE BEFORE. MAYBE GOOD LOOT INSIDE.

"That's all you think about, huh?" You sigh.

Like the lab, the theater is abandoned and in huge disrepair. You're confident that the front hall you first enter used to look rather nice, but is now dominated by rotting wood stained marble. You carefully pick your way through the ruins and rubble until you reach a set of inner doors. No doubt the ones leading the open atrium you saw.

With a bit of grunt work, you and Ramirez push the ancient doors open while Tarin and Artya move in to secure the area. You find yourself in an open air theater, and sure enough, right there on the stage, you can see the copse of trees you caught sight of earlier, jutting out of the rotting floorboards that used to be the stage.

You carefully creep down the aisles, keeping a close eye on the empty, dusty seats on either side of you, half thinking some sort of half-alive terror would suddenly leap out at you. Finally, after what seems like an eternity, you reach the stage.

So we'll need to make sure to keep some people mobile, if a fight takes place. Ramirez and Jagar could pull this off. SMGs tend have nice force increasing factor to them.

Not on the battlefield it isn't.

>>25210817
depends as outright stripping a body of stuff isn't AOK but getting weapon plans and such off of them appears to be okay (the Ace Kill thing in the games)

But yeah she'd need to learn to tone down the strip-looting.

>>25210935
Hell, some soldiers would take the boots off the dead at times because there's were shoot to hell and back.

You take a cautious step forward, only for the floorboard to give away beneath your foot.

"Oh shi-" You curse before Tarin and Ramirez grab you. "Careful, this place is pretty dang-"

<Moving in> Artya signs before leaping down into a hole in the stage.

"Ah damnit. Tarin, Ramirez, keep an eye on things. Yell if you see anything strange"

Tarin and Ramirez give you a clear "are you goddamn serious?" look.

"Okay, anything STRANGER than what we're in right now." You correct. You look at the dark hole Artya leaped down and take a deep breath and follow her in.

The area under the stage is dark and cramped. You need to hunch over in order to move through effectively, but you manage to catch up to Artya, who seems to have stopped in her tracks.

"Artya, what's wrong?" You walk up and see two masked and hooded figures leaning against the trees, as if they were sleeping. From the layer dust and has collected over them, you can tell they've been here for quite some time. It's then that you notice the corpses of six Beasts scattered around the area as well, dead from a various combination of gunshot, stab, and blunt trauma wounds.

Artya kneels in front of one of the masked corpses and inspects it carefully before moving on to the next one. She then hands you two notes and points to the body on the left.

MEET FATHER

Then she points to the body on the right.

MEET MOTHER

>Well shit. What now?

>Well shit.

>>25210990

I think you're really underestimating how common it was.

Basically, Pride and dignity takes a back seat to money, extra equipment and shiny knick-knacks on the battlefield. Forget the romantic shit you might have learned, nearly everyone did it when they had the opportunity to.

>>25210994
>Taking down six Beasts along with them on their train ride to Hell.

Helluva way to go.

>>25210990
dude, its fucking war, soldiers did whatever they could to get an advantage over their enemies, which meant, wherever and whenever they could, they stripped the dead down to their undies for gear

when you are fighting a war, pride is not even something that enters your mind

>>25211088
I get the impression EWII era and afterwards tried to be more civilized in general. Getting Imperial stuff in the games would have been easier if you just had to shoot any old smuck for some.

>>25211108
All things considered, it was probably a ticket OUT of hell

"They died a warrior's death, I don't know if that means anything for your people I know many who would consider this a good way to die." You say, putting a reassuring hand on her shoulder. "We should go as soon as you've made your peace, lest we risk sharing this fate."

Artya nods and starts patting down her own parents' bodies for loot, taking their weapons, rations, ammo, and any thing else possibly valuable.

"Ummm, Artya? What are you doing...?" You blanch.

THEY DON'T NEED THEIR LOOT ANYMORE. THEY WOULD HAVE WANTED IT THIS WAY. Artya writes.

"If that's what you say." You frown, not entirely convinced.

<Incoming> She signs before tossing a metal lockbox at you.

You barely manage to catch it in time, but under the dirt and dust, all you can see the words PROPERTY OF DR. QYBURN written on it. You open it carefully, and there's a dusty old journal nestled inside.

That is sort of made up by...well looking post-apocalyptic Kremlin.

There's plenty of things the game did right too, such as the bullets as currency thing, I found that one to be absolutely ingenious.

Kinda disappointed at what Last Light did to the display though, I liked the old one better.

Well, technically, Artyom, Anton, and company survive a run-in with said thing, thanks to Oleg jumping straight into it, breaking the effects long enough for them to blow it the fuck up, so I guess that should have been in the game, really. I just wish I didn't get weird looks when I tell people who've only played the game not to look at The Kremlin.

>>25211735
Nah, it's worse than that.

They walk towards the Kremlin, and go in the doors.

Artyom is actually stopped by one of the people he's with because he wanted to check if it was true, and was already walking there without realising it.

You look at what the page you flipped to.

TREATISE ON MILITARY APPLICATIONS OF RAGNITE GAS AND DERIVATIVE SUBSTANCES

You drop the journal in revulsion. You've never seen it in action, but you've heard the stories. Ragnite gas, a weapon so horrible that both the Federation and the Empire agreed it was something that could never be used again.

With trembling hands, you grab your you lighter, pick up the journal, and set it ablaze. You watch it burn and you make sure that it burns down to the very last bit of ash. The deed is done.

"Artya... let's get out of here." You mumble.

Artya nods and turns to leave, but stops, scribbles down two notes, leaving one on each body.

"It's done." You say. They both nod and the whole group rushes off to the exit.

"Took them a while, but they're catching up." Julia points out when you get outside. Sure enough, you can catch glimpses of movement in the distance. The periodic CRACK of a distant rifle signifies Alek still taking shots at them.

"We're getting the hell out of here." You say, remounting onto the Fenrir. "Let's go!"

The rest of the Demons remount and barrel off at full speed toward the mine.
