Re: Mission 3 Turn 14: The Truth Unveiled
The man had shuddered at the strike. He clearly felt the pain, and was not in even the slightest position to stand up to Morse. Yet here he was, in his dismal, misguided, immoral glory attempting to hold his ground and babble about laws that almost no one had any concept of anymore. The galaxy was n...

Re: Mission 3 Turn 13: Answers
Morse inhaled after gunning down one final Xenomorph. He forced a calm in himself, but the sweat breaching his helmet was evidence of his elevated heart rate. He breathed out a hard jet of air from his nose. He had blood on his hands from the dead man at his feet, an unneeded loss in the midst of a ...

Re: Mission 3 Turn 12: Acid bath
The altercation that had happened on this end of the hall was a scene that left Morse feeling like a cop more then a Marine. Neither of these men were overly familiar to him, but the man that had apparently been stabbed was soon to be described as being stabbed to death. If he had shot one of their ...

Re: Mission 3 Turn 12: Acid bath
This action had begun calm, but had arrived at a juncture where it was more hectic then most. They were in a secret corporate facility on an world that had yet to be colonized, inside of hallways where they were being bombarded by both Androids, Aliens, and human refugees. Morse's mind wondered how ...

Re: Mission 3 Turn 11: Incoming
It was in fact Xenomorphs. The mission had just taken an additional turn that would leave them in the grips of an unknowable pain and misery. There would have to be an intense follow up to the encounter. They'd have to go through every log, every shred of data, everything that could lead them to kno...

Re: Mission 3 Turn 10: Hell Unleashed
The situation was escalating rapidly. Without communication with the home base, and trapped inside of the facility Morse was final authority. Fortunately the first line of defense was the strict training regime that all Marines had, which allowed the unit to make the proper calls in discharging smok...

Re: Mission 3 Turn 10: Hell Unleashed
The automated voice overhead unsettled Morse, and he swiftly levied his weapon to fire. His eyes scanned the ceiling, this would not be the first time he watched an autocannon drop from there and unload a hail of bullets on them. But nothing came to that effect, only a heavy hydraulic moan as their ...

Re: Mission 3 Turn 8: Reunion
There was a point that Sam made. The droids out front, while having the means to put up a fight, had hardly put up one at all. Regardless of whether or not they were specifically programmed for advanced combat, the fact that they opted to attempt to fire and did not was very odd. To make matters mor...

Re: Mission 3 Turn 7: Fireteam Alpha
The door slammed shut, separating the the unit. Not ideal, but not a deal breaker. It did not sound like mulching or grinding or flames or screaming beyond, so that was a good sign. They had likely entered into a trap, but that was not to say that they were dead. Marines were dangerous animals to tr...

Re: Mission 3 Turn 6: Spotted
The movement of the synthetic caught Morse's eye. A simple look allowed him to measure that the droid was moving towards the weapon that rested on the ground that appeared to have been carried by its now shut down companion. The advance towards the weapon was steady, measured, and calculated. This w...

Re: Mission 3 Turn 6: Spotted
A firefight had begun. Combat once more. But this time against a more familiar enemy. This was something the Marines were actually prepared and trained for. THis was something that Morse was all too familiar with... if not eager to step into. Fighting against giant lizards and swamp ambushes were mi...

Re: Mission 3 Turn 5: Visual
There was movement in at the structure. Less then ideal, as they had hoped for a peaceful occupation. While the uninitiated my see others on the world as a sign of salvation, the prospect of being saved, or at least linking up with people of the same species or culture as they were. Morse and the ma...

Re: Mission 3 Turn 3: Showdown
The beast was dead. That was a welcome surprise. In a way Morse had thought it may rip them to pieces before they could rally their defense. Had it gotten jaws or claws on the APC it could very well have flipped it over. Fortunately it had only done its initial obvious damage. There was now the scen...

Re: Mission 3 Turn 2: Megafauna
The predatory creature that emerged was like nothing Morse had ever seen before. He had witnessed the Xenomorph Queens in action, they too were large lumbering monsters. But the Xenomorphs were thin, insect like, with a hard outer shell for skin, but not like this. This beast was muscular and more m...
