“FuckfuckfuckfuckfUCKFUCKFUCK GET THE DOOR CLOSED HEMSON!”

“I'm fucking trying Gloe, goddammit! I'm working with one arm here!”

Your soldiers desperately attempt to hack the glowing console in the Security Checkpoint as, in the distance the wolf-thing pads over to its last kill and sniffs it.

“Why the FUCK did I have to be the one to get his interface fried outside?? Goddammit and what IS that thing? I didn't even see it until it'd killed 14 of us!”

The wolf bends its head down, and the pool of worms that had slid out of your soldier's armor form a small pillar and flow onto the creature. They quickly incorporate themselves into its structure and it stands a minute amount higher than before as it turns to look at Hemson and Gloe, and starts walking towards them.

“I don't fucking know what it is any more than you do! FUCK, I got locked out! RUN FOR IT!”

“No way we're outrunning that thing. Let's try...THIS!”

Gloe cocks back his arm, and then plunges it through the console's glowing screen. Glass and metal part as if they were warm butter, and a shower of sparks cascades out of the dying interface.

Behind your troops the security bulkhead slams shut just as the Wormwolf begins to gallop towards them.

“Well...shit.”

“Works every time, now let's get out of he-ACK”

Your troops slump to the ground, each of their necks pierced by a thin needle. As they fall the skinny figure of Sherman stands over them, a pouting expression on his face.

“That never works for /me/.” the scientist says in a whining tone.

“Even still, it was well done. You know...I might even let one of you live. Hmm...but which one? Ah! I know!”

The pale-skinned doctor reaches into one of his labcoat's pockets and pulls out a two-sided disc. On one side is a bas relief of a grotesque monstrosity snarling out of the coin's face. On the other is a mechanical looking face dominated by two large optical receptors. He tosses it up in the air, catches it on the way down, and peaks at the result.

“Mm, very good. A new lease on life for that one then. Now...there is much work to be done before the 'reinforcements' arrive. Let's be off, you bashful dames.”

"Give me your young, your fit,
Your huddled masses of future scientists,
The brightest delegates of your shining bunker.
Send these, the able, excited, to me:
I beckon for them to stand against the darkness beyond"

A meeting was gathered in a large common room of your housing area, all of you members not dispatched to the Bunker were present. Some proposed a draft, others argued vehemently against it. Force only begets force, they claimed, and you and yours were meant to uplift this shattered world...not be dragged down into the muck and mire with it. In the end, it was decided that only those who volunteered would be conscripted into the military.

And so your young men, fit and able, and your young women, bright and sharp, stepped forward in ranks and droves. As they were filed into the VR Chambers a sense of frightful destiny descended upon them. This was the beginning of a long path, whether it would be for good or ill is still yet to be seen...

Your troops weaved their way across the uneven, wet floor of your cave without incident. It seems that a sufficient display of force will keep most of the critters that infest your homeground at bay, and only a few horrific monstrosities had to be dealt with in short order by your walkers' superior firepower.

Your troops spotted the imposing figure of the murderous robot that had claimed a full 60% of your scouting force from quite a distance away. It was a walker-pattern robot only slightly larger than your own walkers and it stood atop the bunker, completely immobile aside from the occasional schizophrenic seizure, and stared down at the entrance where it had murdered so many of your soldiers. Several fresh skulls robbed of their flesh hung from hooked chains around its structure.

It was so intent upon the entrance that it didn't seem to notice your caravan of troops until your Walkers opened fire on it with their autocannons and guided missiles. While it may've been a match for one of your walkers, 5 with infantry support and the Sergeant made quick work of it. Insane screams mingled with incoherent babbling and pitiful mewls as it was slowly ground down to component parts by the weight of your fire.

Your squad of men in experimental power armor enter the bunker led by Sergeant Grift. They are smooth and military as they file through the door and secure the entry security hub from the edges out. They don't even flinch at the sight of 20 insectoid heads arranged in an outwards-facing circle in the center of the room. Nor do they overreact to the two living bugmen standing over the small tepee of experimental weapons in the center of the circle.

"Alright, I've got two non-hostiles and a pile of weapons here. Squad 2 move in and escort them out. Secure them in one of the Cargo Crawlers while we clear out the rest of this place."

"Roger, Sarge. Proceeding now. Wonder why he left those guys there, don't you?"

"I have my suspicions. Either way though, we lost a fuckton of good men over these bastards so there'd be no point in toasting them now."

Your men proceed into the next room, the operating chamber where you had previously found the vivisected corpse of an Insectoid. The corpse is still there, but the room is in a much worse state of disarray that it was last time. It seems that every drawer in the room has been yanked out and emptied of supplies, and a quick glance into the secret storage room beyond reveals more of the same.

The more noteworthy find in this room is one of your power-armored soldiers, sliced open in much the same way as the insectoid. Your Sergeant's practiced eye notes that several nerve clusters in the arms and sternum have been deliberately exposed to the air. Amidst the bloody gore sits a single small plasticard with a short sentence scrawled on it in handwritten letters.

"I'd turn back now if I were you.

P.S. I left the other one alive if you can find him. Replacement arm too."

Ignoring the note and body your squad presses onwards towards the secret vehicle bay. They enter the bay to find a highly disappointing sight.

Every vehicle in the bay has been smashed into uselessness. Various fluids leak out of the wrecks, staining the formerly pristine floor various shades of antifreeze green or biofuel brown. Fortunately, the weaponry looks intact. You might be able to salvage the whole vehicles if you're lucky. At the very least you could probably use the chasses to rebuild them off of.

Your men set about salvaging the vehicles. It proves a difficult prospect, as many of the vehicles have been smashed and mangled into their storage bays. Fortunately whoever wrecked the vehicles neglected to wreck the rest of the infrastructure in the bay, and after your troops figure out how to use the integrated crane arrays the work goes quickly. A pair of your walkers smash at the southern entrance with their legs until it finally gives, and you're able to extract the vehicles without too much trouble. They are loaded onto the cargo crawlers and moved a safe distance away from the bunker.

Anyone got a recap?

Also let's recall what was on our big to-do list.

1. Explore the rest of this base to satisfaction (no science yet)
2. Secure it, and hold it, as a new base
3. Train more of our military in power armor usage
4. Research the new tech we find (medical, heat ray, etc.)
5. Simultaneous focus on monster capture and research AND alongside it, base science analysis

>>41595787
Hey, basic jist of the civ is (not!British) Government-Remnants with power armor in a Bunker waking up on a frozen island that was previously a (giant) secret government science facility.

As of right now this very moment, last thread we explored a medical bunker near our base (in a big underground cavern) found an evil doctor experimenting on possibly sentient mutant people, we tried to arrest him but he unleashed monsters on us and killed the team we sent.

So now we're sending in another team more heavily armed with our Civ military hero to secure the base as we previously wanted it as another forward outpost. Also maybe find the survivor of the last team and/or the mad doc.

Also we found ray-guns. And a giant robot spider that killed a bunch of our guys in power armor. We can fill you in on the rest as it goes along.

Meanwhile Sergeant Grift marches out of the vehicle bay and onwards towards the rest of the bunker. Your troops can briefly hear a screaming of metal from the direction of the security checkpoint, and then screaming of a more organic nature from beyond it. Several shouts and curses are also heard from Sarge, and the hum of his experimental weapon and the mini-explosions it causes can be heard echoing through the air.

Several minutes of squealing and yelling passes as your men withdraw the vehicles from the bay, and then falls silent just as the last technical is loaded into the cargo crawlers and your men withdraw. You receive your first transmission from the Sergeant since he walked out of the bay.

"Checking in, Command. I'm still alive. Wiped out approximately...25. No, wait, 35 unidentified hostile creatures. Strange quadrupeds with nasty blades on tails. Identified surviving trooper Hemson in southwest containment cell and retrieving now. Other corpses identified in northeast holding cell. Opening door, retrieving survivor, exiting complex now. Wait, what's...

Oh fuck. EVAC NO-"

The explosion started at the northeastern corner of the bunker, where you first wave of men had found the Doctor at first. Or at least, that's what the sensor records of the Walkers said. Realistically it moved too fast for any organic eye to follow, and when it went off it went off BIG.

For a brief moment, the inside of the cave was lit from the inside by a bright new sun, and at the same time your men and vehicles were tossed aside like ragdolls by the buffeting force of the overpressure wave.

>Treat the wounded, search for a hero

Your members decide that, for now, they'll trust in the bunker's stealth matrix and autodefenses to tend to the bandits if it comes down to it. Instead, the cargo crawlers, technicals, and non-combatants at the bunker are recalled to base for treatment.

All of the equipment retrieved is thoroughly washed with anti-rad chemicals. As are all the people and your...bug men. The experimental weapons and recoil-less rifles are quickly separated from the rest of the equipment and sent to the science bay for storage.

Then the proper medical treatment is begun. Your medical bay and personnel make quick work of diagnosing and treating the radiation sickness and burns that many of your unarmored members received. Unfortunately none of your members, not even the replacement head surgeon, demonstrated the skill indicative of a hero unit. At least, not that you could detect. The insectoids are awaiting lodging of some sort.

To be fair, Strelok got a little distracted by some transmissions during the middle of his observations to that effect.

>Insectoid Issue
-Housing unit, lock the door
-Containment unit
-Housing unit, don't lock the door (free reign of base)
-Other?

>Search for the Sergeant
Meanwhile your War Walkers and troops in Experimental Power Armor stayed behind to search for the sergeant. Most of the first layer of rubble had melted into a solid, homogeneous sheet of concrete and metal. This proves quite the obstacle to your search, as every time one of your men or walkers tries to break through the sheet the rubble below can be felt compressing.

They quickly lay off their search, realizing that they lack the proper tools right now to continue their search effectively. By the time they'd be able to make any process, everyone would be too irradiated to be of any use.

>>41596774
I'm actually kinda glad some of our bug men survived.

I wonder if they are immune to radiation.

>>41596774
-Housing unit
>-Other?
Have them be supervised, with a guard posted at the door, just so that they have someone to talk to.

They CAN leave, but if they wish to do so, be supervised.

If possible, begin translation attempts of basic commands and messages, and/or try to inform them which parts of the base are dangerous. Like, pointing to the signs.

When the plan is detailed to your troops they gasp. As the briefing continues the gasps, grumbles, and snorts stop. By the end of the briefing, all of the troops are simply sitting in their seats jaws agape. You continue trying to convince them, but it seems to have little effect.

"So you want us to do this plan, exactly as-is."

"Yes, this is coming straight down from Command! No modifications whatsoever!"

"...The same 'Command' that's mentioned no less than 30 times in that document as being 'complete and total fuckwits', 'the gnarliest bunch of steaming shits you'll ever have the displeasure to encounter', and 'jesus I fucking hate Command'?"

"Yes, that Command exactly!"

After your delegate finishes his enlightening pep talk to your soldiers they slowly file out of the briefing room, some stumbling and moving slowly as if in shock. Internal sensors indicate 99.8% of them returning to their housing units and having "final discussions" and "goodbye speeches" with their families. The remaining .2% are family-less soldiers noted for being loners.

Central database now has Last Will and Testaments on 97% of soldiers.

Your delegate steps outside into the hallway, a smile beaming across his face, and his chest puffed out and full. He speaks to no one in particular as he begins to walk towards his dorm.

"I think that went well!"

A faint skip and whistling can be detected as he proceeds down the hallway.

As your troops kneel in the snow, some crying, some simply looking down at the ground with deadened eyes, they see the sight they've been waiting for. From the north, coming down the slope is a truly massive fleet of bandits. Every one of them except the man in the lead is dressed in little more than straps of cloth around their torsos and long pants and every single one mounts an advanced looking, floating jetbike. Their whooping cries and yells can be heard well before their outlines clearly resolve against the background of cracked rock and dust that they kick up.

As the lead biker, the only one dressed in armor, approaches your crowd of sniffling, crying men he begins to slow down. Eventually he comes to a stop immediately in front of one of your men, the edged flanges of the front of the jetbike hovering no more than and inch from the kneeling figure's face.

Your man doesn't flinch.

Rolled 54 (1d100)

>>41597716

Your man is too depressed and resigned to his fate to flinch. He barely even summons the willpower to look up as the power armored biker removes his helmet to reveal Engineer Sword's face. The face grins down at your soldier, eyes lit up with glee.

"Holy fuck, they actually fucking listened."

Your Engineer turns his jetbike around as one of the bandits approaches him out of the crowd. The bandit is marginally more dressed than his comrades, wearing scraps of various combat armors strapped across his legs and abdomen. As he comes closer your kneeling man notes the faint shimmer indicative of some sort of shield.

Of course, it's fucking freezing out here and they're shirtless. Makes sense. Anyway...time for the next part of the plan.

"Hot diggity goddamn you muhfucka. I never for once actually believed you'd fukin be able to delivar on that promise but goddamn did you.

Shit, I'm almoss disappointed! I kinda wanted that fancy new arma you got on for myself! Shit though, I guess this'll juss have to be good enuff fo me and mine tho."

"Yes sir, Raidmasta Ghoulagh sir. And as promised, they're all perfectly willing to surrender. It was actually quite easy to convince them, once I informed them of your long list of accomplishments. Allow me to demonstrate, and allow you the chance to formally accept their surrender."

Engineer sword turns his jetbike on the Bandit Leader for a moment, and snaps his armored fingers above his head several times to get your men's attention. He makes a chopping downward motion with his hand, and your troops immediately respond to the signal in unison.

"We, the military forces of our government remnant" the dull lifelessness with which the words are delivered rumbles across the landscape as your 200 members utter it "formally offer our unconditional surrender, and throw ourselves upon the mercy of Raidmasta Ghoulagh and his crew of the Badside Bloodridah bandit klanners."

Sheeiiit, I even pride mahself on bein' able to see through tricks. the ol' fake surrender for a trap bait is as old as the 'evil 'imself, ya know? But FUKK ME SIDEWAYS if these men aren't UTTERLY defeated already."

"Yes sir, it took only the merest mention of your reputation and they were all broken in spirit and mind. We were never meant for fighting, you see? It's part of why I sought your illustrious band out."

"Ah, I see. Now I joost have one question."

"Yes sir?"

"Can you make ahm do anythin else?"

"Yes sir."

You engineer turns around once more, and this time makes a crossing motion with both of his arms across his chest. Your men immediately begin to yell a dull "AAaaaAAHHHHHHH" at the top of their lungs, which reverberates across the landscape even louder than the surrender announcement had. The sound bounces off of bare rock faces, and is almost all-consuming in its volume.

The Bandit's face does not actually look big enough to contain the smile on it right now. The toothy grin goes literally from ear to ear, rotten and missing teeth included.

After their cry finishes its echoes, and the noise finally settles, your men get to their feet. A new sort of vigor has grabbed them, as if they looked at their finances to see that their leases on life had renewed unexpectedly. As they reach down into the snow to grab their weapons the life returns to them fully, and by the time 200 barrels of various assault rifles, sniper rifles, shotguns, and even a pair of your experimental weapons is pointed at the Bandit Leader their movements are quicker with more life and confidence than ever before.

The Bandit Leader's smile has utterly dropped from his face, to be replaced by a look of surprised fury. He draws his sidearms, two massive revolvers with ornately carved barrels and handles the color of wood, and points them at your engineer.

"What the fuck do you think you're doing here you chucklefucker?"

"Oh, it's simple really. I'll either accept your surrender...or I'll forcibly stun you and put you all in containment without the formalities."

"FUCK THAT. I've got an army, and you've got a bunch of pissant fucking piddly government wannabe-specops. MEN, CHARGE!!"

The sudden sound of hundreds of grav-jets revving utterly fail to materialize.

Across the landscape the yells, whoops, and chambering of ammunition that a bandit warband preparing to pillage makes absolutely do not appear.

The angry yells of a single man do echo across the slopes, as he turns his jetbike around to see the massive mound of snow indicative of an avalanche having passed through. The white-on-white snow is speckled all over with the occasional writhing limb of a bandit, or half-buried form of a jetbike. Atop it all stand your 5 C&C walkers, striding between the exposed bandit limbs and quietly administering electric shocks and puffs of knockout gas. As the Bandit Leader takes in the sight of his entire warband encased in snow the Walkers stop in their tasks and draw their arrays of armaments onto the lone hero.

"...I surrender."

>Catalog Bandit Goods

Your members set themselves to cataloging all of the goods the bandits had brought with them. Several hours later they look up from cataloging for the first time and see all that they've gone through. Piles of various weapons, ammunition, armor (what there is), and of course the gravbikes. All of the fucking gravbikes.

In front of them lie unorganized piles of all those assorted goods and more. They are all filthy, messy, and mixed into one another like flotsam floating on a sea of ammunition of various sorts. The /NEED/ to sort all of this, to catalog it and make it neatly organized seizes your members, and in a flurry of paperwork and activity that takes far longer than any reasonable person would go without sleeping, the bandit crap is all cataloged.

>Search for the Sergeant

Meanwhile, your military is outfitted with construction tools to tear into the melted bunker, and dispatched out to search for the Sergeant. They depart with all haste, organizing themselves and leaving in less than an hour. As they approach the bunker, they are confronted with the sight of several rings of dead ghouls, zombies, and monsters of all descriptions including more than a few dead murderkrabs and dozens of lurkers with their heads crushed into pulp.

In the middle of the concentric circles of bodies sitting next to a ragged hole that was obviously made simply by punching is a duo sitting on two separate severed monster heads of unidentified species that stand at least 4ft high on their own. Their armor helmets are off and they're smoking two stubby cigars and laughing together, they've even managed to produce a bottle of some sort of liquor and are alternating between taking swigs of it. One of them features a matte black synthetic arm, though aside from the color you wouldn't be able to tell the difference.

If you want to release them and pardon them for their crimes, then just arm them well enough to ensure they return to saftey. At least in the same weapons and gear they were carrying on the way here.

Anything less is malicious negligence and/or manslaughter.

>>41599253
I'd be okay with that as opposed to giving them pistols and sidearms. At least then it's clear we intend to release them correctly.

>>41599253
partially agreement: except we cant have them being armed on the same level as they threatened us in the first place, they'd immediately become the nearly same threat. but negligence implies lack of understanding, we dont have that, also manslaughter is the death resulting from our immediate actions. if a man leaves your house and walks into a rush hour freeway its not manslaughter. (these guys can just wait outside under the protection of our guns afterall, until the monsters leave the nuke site. then make there way to the underground bandit camp.

ive always motioned for harsh treatment of prisoners, either kill them or send them far away, and every time , EVERY goddamned time, ive been right. (in other quests as well)

>>41599319
Be that as it may, if such is the case then we'd have to escort them to walking distance of their bandit camp and leave them there.

On the brighter note, we'd at least find out where their bandit camp is and can target them later.

But if you kick a man out of your house into the freeway that is literally right outside, yes that IS manslaughter. And unfortunate house design, but not our fault a freeway apocalypse happened.

>>41599361
Except here, where the very first big thing you've attempted you were wrong.

Had we decided to forgo doing the right thing and just go straight up enclave, you wouldn't here a peep from me.

But it would be a slap in the face for us to have gone through all that we just did and even blow up a tactical nuke, only for us to change our minds right now.

kek. yeah, but these monsters arnt ON our doorstep....yet. the alternative is we hold them until there gone....but then id say we follow streloks own suggestion and just execute them for there crimes...

Not without a trial.

I will accept an execution if there's a trial, and then the prisoners be allowed to reduce their sentence for manual labor.

>>41599377
again, extremist (also slightly personal, but whatever). your taking my idea and running all the way possible with it. dont assume eliminating our ENEMIES one way or another is somehow enclave endorsement. we ARE still soldiers afterall. we kill people.

>>41599420
I'm willing to compromise on a trail supported execution, at least then it's legitimate.

>>41599427
No. We do not kill people.

We kill enemy combatants and hostiles.

We do NOT kill POW's.

>>41599455
At least, not without a fair and speedy military tribunal to determine the fate of these POW's under the laws of war

>>41599420
so you want to justify our "goodguy status" by staging (and thats what it would be an act) a military trial (the outcome we already know according to strelok) and then just kill them anyway?......and im the bad enclave loving evil bastard for trying to send them outside with their guns and a chance.......

>>41599455
good argument, really.....but we cant keep them either, thus see above.

>>41599484
No, you're being the actual enclave bastard for clearly trying to put them in harms way in the guise of "releasing" them, rather than at least escorting them to freedom and saftey to their nearest base or anywhere that they deem "safe"

That would be an acceptable release, no "throw them into the monster pit and see who lives"

Maybe where you're from.

Here we just kill enemies.

Fucking this. If you do anything, never do it half-assed.

Want to release them? Fine. Drop them off in saftey,

Want to kill them? Then at least justify their deaths.

Want to keep them? Then prepare to keep them in the longterm.

how to treat POW is a hard topic, with many ideas and opinions, i get it. i dont make the decisions around here, im just proposing a plan of action and justifying it. if everyone wants something else , then that's fair enough. just giving my preferred option. nothing personal guyskid...

>>41599525>>41599567

no guise here...im upfront about these guys mostly dying out. im not trying to trick anyone. again, my personnal idea would be they fight and die our enemies. that simple. not nice,not evil (considering wed just kill them after a trial anyways),... but practical.

well its late, and this debate is getting more personal and less factual. so , im off night guys. i cant play much tomorrow so you can ultimately do what you want, just wanted to propose an idea. feel free to attack me if it makes you feel better.

>>41599598
The problem about your argument is you're advocating not killing them by killing them (with slim chances of survival).

It is as anon mentioned "half-assed" and without any real motivation other than a semblance of "practicality." If you want them to fight the monsters, arm them properly for it at least and give them a damn good chance to survive.

otherwise, it's no different from romans throwing prisoners to the lions in the arena with wooden swords. And pretty damn evil at that.

Practicality would have dictated we recruit the scientist. What you propose is far more evil than him experimenting on bug people (with the chance of uplifting them into proper sentience, as you so like your "chances")

>>41599640
I'm not attacking you, I am attacking your proposal in my own, very personal matter, hyped up by my refusal to see this civ slip into the black abys of "evil for the sake of good" practicality that almost always leads to just plain "evil".

you're a pretty cool guy tho. Cya next game, man

>>41599676
heh, no worries, im not as invested in this one point as it may seem. just that ive had theis (almost) exact same deabte before, soo then if i say kill the pows there dangerous they want to release/befriend them (it ended badly) , if i saw release them(but not as a threat) they say kill them. so i try alittle of both here, kill some , release some, kill some enemies. naturally, the complain im half assing it , or trying to guise/trick them. ...so like i said >>41599598

im not trying to fight the tide...im not the only person playing here (a fact i love and hate some days , kek)
"peace bro, if we all agreed all the time, it'd be boring as fuck. night"

>>41599814
And I have had my own experiences with this scenario before as well...it also ended badly, but for an entirely different reason as yours.

I'm just against trying to please both. It just feels to me like not doing one thing the most effectively or the other. It's neither completely idealist, or completely pragmatist.

Ditto on that last part. Night,

Still alive? Amazing

It's okay, if this thread lives until my social obligations for today are complete then I'll continue from where we've left off.
