"Get those Pilots outta there, and call up command, tell them we have a problem. We gotta try to land this heap of junk or all of us are gonna go see were troopers go after a dirt nap."

Doc states as he gets up to the cockpit entrance, taking a very intense view over the controls, Trying to remember being tought emergency drop procedures.

The pilots are moved out of the way and Doc sits down at the controls.  He works the dials, buttons, switches and the control stick feverishly as the ground fast approaches.  The reverse rockets come on, but the angle isn't right and there just isn't enough time to correct it.

Then darkness...

Later, everyone wakes up.  The fires are out, but the ship is badly damaged.  Several men are dead.

"Sir, it's the LT" one trooper says, holding Doc's radio.  "He says we're to pull ourselves together and continue our mission."

Everyone is outside of the pod now, about 15 men and women having survived.  A few are keeping guard while others apply first aid to the wounded.

OOC

What now?  Oh, and which of your weapons do you have ready (ie, your "default" weapon)?

"Well this is off to a great start" Doc says while patting himself down to check for damage.

"Alright then, how many troopers we got fit to fight, and how many require downtime. Corporal whats our status, (pauses, looks around then yells) CORPORAL!

 

 

OOC

Sidearm for the role, HMG will be used pretty much in a more defensive field

"SERGEANT!"

Monsignor took to his feet, scanning the area long enough to gather his bearings. "Looks about fif'teen o' us left. A few dead. Those that were harmed are bein' treated." The Corporal let out a faint grunt as he cracked his neck to the side, lightly massaging his neck before continuing. It was just a minor motion to ease himself mentally. "An' a few are guardin'."

A thin-lipped grin spread across the man's face. "Whut now, Sergeant?"

OOC

... PBF's are a whole different creature. But, it's a learning process.... E-Cannon, plz and thank you.

"Ye canna shove yer Granny aff a bus."

"Well... 15 good to go eh, we'll take 11 and leave 4 to guard the rest, cant come back to a mass grave right. OR do you have a better idea?"

Doc seriously asks Monsignor knowing the years of combat experience lends itself to out of the box thinking

Jet grabs a few of the more together survivors and establishes a preimiter while command gets off its *** and thinks of what to do.

Attack: what else to do when suddenly surprised by hostiles in the perimeter.

"TROOPERS FIRE AT WILL" Doc cries as he tries to aim a shot at the nearest "hostile"

The blood rushes through Monsignor's veins as he makes a bull-rush straight towards the closet foe. Laughter gleefully rings throughout the area; his mind set on the exhilaration caused by the unexpected assault.

"Ye canna shove yer Granny aff a bus."

Aliens (AA 6): 9 (FAIL)
Doc (FA 2): 6 (FAIL)
Monsignor (FA 7): 5 (1 KILL)
Tex (FA 5): 10 (FAIL)
Jet (FA 5): 8 (FAIL)

OOC

Ok in order:
1) Monsignor: Describe what you do and how you kill (1) alien with your armored hands!  You can change range by one level for free, but since your gun is no longer ready, that isn't a good idea yet. (You've removed one of the 3 tokens!)  Also say what you're going to do next.
2) Tex describes how he fails to kill anything, and what he does next.
3) I describe the Alien's failure, and what they do next.
4) Jet describes how he fails to kill anything, and what he does next.
5) Doc describes how he fails to kill anything, and what he does next.

Have fun with this part.  Failure doesn't have to be boring. :)
