>>6457818
Uh...I don't think all your storage is filled 9/9 actually. Your gun doesn't take up space if it is in your hands, and patch kits stack 2 to 1 inventory space, the rad umbrella takes 2 spaces, the digging tool takes no space since it is integrated as part of the Lineman suit, ammo and med kit each take 1 space, storage extension takes up 0 space, so I have you as having 5/9 inventory space, or 5/6 without the storage extension. Pretty sure you can fit a bubble tent in there, if you wanted. You'd have to switch to Lone Trail or ditch the rad umbrella, but you could do it. Alternatively, you can fit in a personal survival tent with no compromises.

>>6457852
why would it have a size number if it doesn't take up inventory space

>>6457865
Because it *does* take up space *if* it isn't held in your hands, or integrated into your suit. Similarly stackable items like Patch Kits, Stim Packs, and ammo only take up 1 inventory space unless you go over their stack limit, not including the ammo inside your weapon's internal magazine. Right under the Weapons Stats section where it describes Size it says "(Note: Weapons held in the hands do not take up inventory space.)". Likewise in the Unit Trait Glossary right at the beginning of the doc it says "Integrated(X): This unit has a single X that doesn’t take up space in their inventory."

>>6457852
Storage Extension is clarified as having 0 size to ensure people don't have it take up more space.

>>6457872
This...has nothing to do with what I'm trying to help Crasski out with. If he wasn't just meming, he seems to be trying to fit a tent into his build, and also I think his inventory isn't as full as he thinks it is. He arguably doesn't need the storage extension if he is willing to make compromises for the tent, or if he keeps it then he could trade the Rad Umbrella for a Bubble tent. Or just take a smaller tent.

"Alright, you merry mob. Here's the story. You're being deployed to a forward trench. Enemy raids are bleeding them dry, and they've lost contact with their listening posts. It's safe to say the enemy has repurposed them, making our job simple. Clear the listening posts and listen for chatter before the bastards on the other end change their encryptions."

Using the underground access tunnels, your squad is moved to the front and spat out of the top of a staircase into an icy trench. Coming up, your suits start to indicate you've reached the planet's surface once more.

Those still manning the line clung to their rifles, and each other. One man used a dead body as a shield from the wind.

It was a poor sight. But no one was going to simply will you forward. One of the few good things about a war on an ice-planet was that your thermal sensors could pick enemies up from miles away.

Scanning...

But first, a little tutorial on how to read your weather forecast. In this game, your life will depend on knowing what kind of weather is coming. Rad storms can fry you standing up, while blizzards freeze you in place to move no more.

HOW TO READ FORECASTS
In order to read any line from the forecast, read left to right. Each "X" or "#" expresses that weather condition as follows.
"This Turn" - "Next Turn" - "The Turn After"

EXAMPLE
Radiation Level
1-2-1
Blizzard Status
N-M-L ("None, Medium, Light")
Ice Quakes
N-N-Y ("No, No, Yes")

So, two turns from now, the radiation level will still be normal, with a light blizzard and some seismic activity. I wouldn't stand near any fault lines if I was you.

Through HUD overlays in your suits, matching with satellite scanners, you're able to place the enemy's positions on your maps.

Additionally, you all tune your local forecasts to the area, and the incoming information starts to feed.

(Note: The trench you are in is made up of "foxhole" spaces in a line, as are the commandeered listening posts. Cliffs are in white, and crevasses are in black. You may loot the dead.)

If by merc you are referring to me, I was actually thinking I was a local as well. I saw locals use the -ski suffix, and thought 'oh, Europans are Polish/generally Slavic'. -ska is the feminine form of -ski, but there are also other feminine suffixs, including -na. I thought the name would've made it obvious.

Do the diagonal movement rules also apply to line of sight and weapon ranges? If not, how are they calculated? Your answer may change what I do on my turn. Also, for the Air Processor, we half the Cost per AP, not the Total Cost, right?

Schooled my ass with Slavic Etymology, we can memoryhole it and say he expressed happiness that you're all locals.

"Do the diagonal movement rules also apply to line of sight and weapon ranges? If not, how are they calculated?"

So,
>When measuring distances the first diagonal is counted as being one square away from the starting point.
So you would count 1NE as being 1 square, but 2NE is 3 Squares, 3NE is 5 squares, and so on. That's for shooting range, however.

When it comes to movement, treat diagonals as cardinal squares, they each cost 1 Move, no matter direction.

"Also, for the Air Processor, we half the Cost per AP, not the Total Cost, right?"

Let's see what the description says.
>The total O2 cost for purchasing AP each turn is reduced by half rounding up.
This emphasizes total O2 cost, after AP has been totaled.
So you moved four times (4), used burst fire twice(4), then went prone(2), costing 10 AP this turn. This would usually cost 30AP, but the Air Processor brings this to 15. Does that make sense?

>Reload for free (Only if I can reload individual bullets without spending AP. If I can't, or I have to eject the whole magazine and throw it away, forget it.)
You cannot reload individual bullets. However, the reload is free since the weapon doesn't have the Reload Tag. If you'd like, you're welcome to either track the used magazine on your body, or throw it away.

>>6458399
>Movement and weapon range
Honestly, I thought how those worked would be reversed. I'll change my turn then. I don't want to be shooting at massive penalties for being out of range because diagonals counts for so much more.

>O2 cost, total cost being halved instead per AP.

This makes the Air Processor stronger than it already was. Cool.

>Prone costing 2

Quoting from the rules: "Your character can go prone at any time for free and rise from being prone for 2 AP."

Going prone shouldn't cost me anything. Only rising does, hence why I did it. I would have to stim up twice to even be able to fit it in otherwise. My total Oxygen cost would be 20, halved to 10.

>Reloading.

Obviously I do not throw away my nearly full magazine and replace it with a half mag.

Absolutely right, I'm currently doing several things at once. Your AP usage is 8, therefore it would be 10 O2 used. As often as I make faults, I encourage you to point them out, and ask for your patience.

I don't know what the QM's reasoning was but the Europan naming convention might be more of an in-joke from the game's first and only play test.

The wind blew harshly over the barren plains of ice before them, the gusts kicking up the freshly fallen snow into flurries that rolled across the horizon in waves. Clouds lay heavy above them, covering the sky in a matte grey blanket and lending at least some level of credibility to the bleak weather forecast they had recieved on their muted march from the forward command post.

Valt stood silently on the fire step of the trench as he watched the snow dance playfully over the desolate landscape. He tried to not sigh miserably at his luck, but found it an impossible task. His oxygen counter beeped in a condescending manner at him for this action.
He had only just begun his rest rota the day before, when Command had suddenly ordered an emergency deployment out of nowhere. Something about a dangerous encroachment on the lines that was under development or whatever. Typical that it would come as soon as he'd been given some time off. His unit had decided to draw straws to determine whom of them would recieve the "honour" of answering the call. Needless to say, he had been the unlucky one to draw the shortest straw.

He cast a mostly unwarranted hostile glance over towards shivering conscript occupying the trench on his right (as hostile as one could give through a full covering helmet anyway), before he hoisted himself over the parapet and began trekking into the frozen wasteland.

I also can't help but notice there's no mention of regenerating oxygen in the rules. Are we going to be able to find refilling stations or scavange oxygen from the canisters of dead hostiles? As it stands with our suits maximum levels of oxygen we likely won't be able to finish the mission otherwise, unless we all minmax our oxygen expenditures every turn.

Only the 20 should hit, unless the shooter who rolled a 19 is the one with the +2. Going prone grants +4 defence, quoting the rules "Going prone grants +4 to defence and doubles the AP costs of movement.", however my Low Profile passive ability adds an extra +2 defence on top of that for going prone. Otherwise, the rest of that is correct. My defence should be 20, but it is meet or beat to hit, so the 20 still gets me.

Precise shots land all around Halina, kicking up small tufts of snow that dance away as the wind picks up into a flurry, then a blizzard. She feels as if she has been punched. Pain flares, then a numbness spreads. Flailing as if having touched boiling water, she risks ruining her sight picture to pat herself down.

"Oh shit. No no no no no..." she breathes out.

A mistake, her breathing becomes ragged as the oxygen flow in her suit becomes irregular, sucked out through the breach in her suit. There's a puncture in her suit, a wound between her right shoulder and her collar bone. A bad place to be hit, big veins there, and her lung, hard to get access to the wound to treat it.

Moments pass as she panics. Her suit is rigid there, she can't put pressure into the gap between her collar bone and shoulder, her fingers won't depress the armour around the wound area. She gropes blindly in the snow, trying to stick her fingers in the breach, to plug the gap, save oxygen, put pressure on the wound.

The sound of snow crunching nearby causes a painful shock of adrenaline to burn her veins. She picks up her rifle, rolls over onto her back, not aiming, just pointing instinctively, her finger on the trigger. Her HUD chirps, outlining the figure in green, a friendly. An IFF tag identifies him as Bromski. He pauses, puts away his rifle, takes out a patch kit and seals the breach with fingers that don't seem to feel the cold.

"T-thanks! I owe you one. You wouldn't happen to have a medkit with your harness, would you?" She says with relief, not telling him that she was a half-second away from going cyclic and spraying him down with automatic fire.

Valt stalked forward towards one of the ice cliffs that overlooked the frozen plateau where the battle lines crisscrossed back and forth like ant trails. Behind him came another poor soul that had been roped into the same hell he had. They hadn't even shared a word between one another, they had simply trudged into the snowdrift to get the job done and hopefully get back home in one piece.

They reached the cliff with little difficulty as the storm began closing in on them from the north, and the thick snowfall already covered the furthest reaches of the field in an impenetrable wall of white fog. His companion took a knee on the edge to scout the listening post at the bottom of the cliff.

"Anything?" Valt asked of the man cautiosly.
"Just the three down there..." came the short reply. The man leaned forwawrd over the cliff face to get a better look at something. A mistake it turns out, as a piece of the cliff cracked and fell straight into one of the the outer foxholes around the post. The response was almost immediate, made of metal and was moving towards them at muzzle velocity.

"Чёpт!" he cried as he dove to the ground quickly to avoid the income fire that sailed into and over the icy cliffside. He saw the man fall, a rupture in his suit spewing out a rather significant amount of air before the suit.
>>6458578
"Бpaт, are you alright?" Valt hollered over the proximity comms. The hit had looked serious enough from his position to be lethal, and he half expected the man to not get back up again. To his surprise, the man roared in anger as he unloaded half his magazine down towards his attackers.
"cyмacшeдший пapeнь." he muttered under his breath as he crawled up to the edge and steadied his rifle. Down below he could see the figures moving about in their foxholes in a panic to avoid the dispersed fire. From this angle however, it would give them no cover...

Proko tapped the side of his helmet and the numbers on his HUD updated. The O2 readout was lagging; something to be looked at back at base. The last thing he needed was to suffocate because his suit told him he had more air than he really did.

((Assuming that guy in the foxhole has nothing more than +4 def all my shots should have hit. Rolling for penetration.))

>>6458669
Both of his shots turned out to be near misses, despite his efforts, the paniced movement of his targets making it difficult to trace his shots. One of them penetrated a small personal survival tent and knocked over a pot of artificial brazilian coffee, while the other collided harmlessly against the rear parados of the foxhole.
"Пиздeц! Did Tomicki swap me his shit-for-dicks rifle when I wasn't looking?" he cried, the frustration evident in his voice as the two brass casings landed in the snow besides him. He chambered another round as he tried to make his profile as small as possible against the return fire that was sure to follow.

The fight presses on, the storm rolling in. Wrona is rescued by Bromski, patching her suit up while she covers the both of them.

Far behind, Wezelski grits his teeth and opens up a barrage on the position. One, two 22mm rounds rip through a defender.

Blood spurts from gaping open wounds, instantly freezing upon contact with the air. Escaping oxygen catches the freezing flakes, and it almost looks as if red glitter is escaping from the suit. The faceless defender claws at the openings, pitifully trying to stop certain death. If that wasn't enough, Wrona's burst catches them, a single round through the helmet stops the movement.

A Heavy blizzard rolls in.

Everyone loses 1 Heat. (Unless you're at 4 Insulation, and I missed it.
Some of you develop Minor Hypothermia...

Crasski looks into the foxhole before the storm overtakes them. A man he thought he hadn't hit with his burst collapses just before the blizzard obscures their view.

(Note: If you engage another enemy in the same trench/foxhole as you, the foxhole defense bonus is negated on both ends.)

>>6459149
>>6459154
Shouldn't the 2 be a death, because they've taken a wound? Or does the first wound not count? If so, that's one less person that should be shooting at Bromski and me.

Also two of the shooters should each have 2 less AP, meaning one less shot each, on top of -4 to hit. I'm not sure which attacks are going where, but if it is the numbers corresponding to the listed names from left to right, then none of those should hit Bromski, unless it is the northern guy's attack. Not that it matters, since it looks like most attacks don't pen.

"Shouldn't the 2 be a death, because they've taken a wound?"

You guys lit him up so much, he's dead now. That's what the grey means. He took two 22mm to the face, then you put him down while he was scrambling. The death save is for a guy in another foxhole.

Unless I'm wrong, Bromski never went prone, so his defense was 12. Either way, it's only the difference between -1 integrity or none.

Quoting the cold rules "at the start of each turn if the environment’s cold level is greater than the player’s insulation stat players lose 1 heat." we don't gain/lose the difference between our insulation and the cold/heat, we just lose or gain 1 per turn. So we'd be at 6, which has no effect.

>>6459178
Yeah, it's not a big deal. That being said, I'm saying that unless that 12 was the guy further back in the listening post, in which case he'd be shooting at -2 for range penalties if he doesn't have a range 6 weapon, then the two suppressed dudes should have -4 to hit from my full auto, so that 12 shouldn't hit. And I'm pretty sure all of them are using SMA-10s, since they are rolling at Pen 1, so they must have range 5.

>>6459194
Absolutely correct

Bromski loses no integrity, sorry for my mistake Bromski.

>>6459202
His accuracy is unaffected? Does suppression and pinning only take affect if they are actually hit, not merely if they are targeted? Good to know if not. Because I did specify that I was full autoing the two closer to me, or in other words the southern most guys in the foxhole.

>>6459268
Yeah, it looks like Ivremski got hit this turn, but Crasski is just suffering the effects of a depressurizing suit.

The return fire did indeed come, and it was a doozy. Automatic fire hailed over their position as if it was going out of style, made twice as miserable for the two poor sods on the cliff as the storm picked up in strength and blew a whirlwind of snow and actual hail all over their position. Just as Valt thought he would be spared from the lead wrath, he felt a sudden sharp sting in his left shoulder. He grasped at it in pain as his suit's HUD began flashing warnings to indicate a breach. Oxygen was pouring out of the newly minted hole in his shoulderpiece as he rolled over to the side to avoid another incoming volley that passed overhead.

"Гaвнo!" His hand went immediately into his pocket to retrieve his Emergency Patch Kit. "жизнь eбeт мeня..." He grumbled under his breath as he did his best to close the hole before it replaced his valuable oxygen with Europan atmosphere. The beeping slowly subsided as the rupture was sealed, the computer showing a net loss of 14,444% total oxygen supply. A sharp drop, but not as bad as he had feared it would be. His mother would've still scolded him if she saw his poor needlework however.

With his situation no longer dire, Valt crawled to the edge of the cliff once more and planted his rifle in the deep snow. The regular sights of a 13Eu would've struggled to pick up anything in this thick snowdrift, but Valt's rifle wasn't equipped with a standard sight. He had spent a great deal of his gambling winnings on an enhanced prototype scope with a stronger lens that could pierce even the heaviest snowstorms. He slowly, patiently swung the scope over the dugouts in the distance, looking for any sign of careless movement...

>>6459248
The MPF-10 doesn't have the range to hit with it's Synch Fire from where you are, as it only has a range of 2. If you swap your action to single shot and take the roll for your first shot you would be in range and also hit/penetrate this round.

>Passive buy 2 AP for 1 Oxygen (50% discount)

The map vision is wrong, I should have an additional +2 vision radius from my Enhanced Scope even when there's Blizzard conditions. I'll hold the other half of my action because I think I'll still be in vision range of the other alive(?) hostile unless he moved away or died, and I think Volk would count as hiting and penetrating the visible target if he swaps his action to single shot and I don't want to potentially overkill if I don't have too.
It would be nice if the map was in a larger resolution if possible.

Also don't forget that a suit breach lowers your Rad Shielding to 0, so if you spend one turn breached you take 1 point of RAD regardless of where you are on the map.

Weapons can be fired beyond effective range at the cost of -2 to hit per extra range, unless you are using a smart targeting system. I chose to take 3 x 3% shots instead of a single 7% shot, based on the assumptions I was using. I'm not certain what the enemy defense and Pen are but assumed +8 defense and 16 Integrity. So the two options with that gun were: single shot @14 to hit, 16 to pen, or triple shot at 18 to hit, 16 to pen. Based on those numbers, 3 shots gave about a 9% chance to get at least one pen, and 1 shot gave about a 7% chance. I like where you head is at, but I rolled the dice and missed a low percentage shot.

Ranged (X): The effective range of the weapon, attacks against targets more than X squares away incur a stacking -2 to hit penalty for every square.

His hands trembled during the increasing cold, the storm seeping through his extra levels of insulation like it didn't exist and sapping him of strength. He tried to keep his rifle steady in the terrible win, but despite his best efforts hi first shot goes wild once more. The man he had lined up saw the parapet before him explode in ice shards and dove for cover instantly.

He quickly chambered another round with his shivering hands. "чyшь coбaчья..." he grumbled, frustration giving way to exasperation at his continued failure to land a single hit. It was a shitshow for sure.

His rifle again trailed over the trench to see if he could get another chance at a shot. He spotted the second man from the trail of oxygen escaping his ruptured suit. To busy attempting to stop his vital lifeline from leaking, he hadn't properly taken cover yet as he struggled to keep pressure on the hole as oxygen continued to seep out of it. He steadied himself again, this time managing to keep the shivering under controll, and pulled the trigger.

The bullet reached it's target instantly, colliding directly with the man's chest. He fell over backwards into the trench from the impact. A smirk appeared behind the plexiglass of Valt's helmet. Maybe he wasn't completely useless yet...


A modified roll of 19 is surely one hit at least.

you can dash while prone, but the ruling of it is that the 4AP it costs to dash is then multiplied by the doubled cost of movement while prone.

"MOVING!" Halina called back.

Scrambling to her hands and knees in a high crawl, she dashed forward and flopped awkwardly into hard-packed snow of the foxhole. Pushing off a freely ventilating corpse and back onto her knees, Halina found the dead soldier's oxygen tank, and with practised ease shucked it off the heavy guy's harness. With better access now, she connected the tube to her intake port, twisted the looted tank's T-handle to increase the flow, sucking the tank dry.

"I'm topped up! Switch, I'll cover you, top off. I'm low on ammo, gonna need to switch with you again after you're done to scavenge some ten-mil."

>Exchange 6 Oxygen for 6 AP
>Move 2 spaces north into the foxhole, Move the corpse 1 tile north. 4 AP

Likewise, if this action can be 'continued' into the next turn for a discount to 2 AP in the next turn or something similar, then I do so.)

Obviously me saying I'll switch with you Bromski is for next turn. This turn I don't have the AP to overwatch or shoot if I wanna get in the foxhole and top off.

The shot he had landed proved to be hardly a hindrance for the man as he rose to his feet with little difficulty, and too Valt's surprise, charged out across the snowy field in what seemed to be useless folly. And seemed to be turned out to be completely true as Crasski, with his steady rifle put a single round through his heart the moment his form became visible through the storm's rage. He fell, this time not getting back up again. The storm that had blown so fiercly too seemed to die down with the loss of the man, fading until it was just a breeze and a few scattered snow flakes on the wind.

Things started looking up for their ragtag band for a moment, so of course it was time for Europa to make itself known. A sudden quake sent the cliff they were using as a vantage point crashing down around them, the whole party tumbling with it until it had finished it's descent. Valt found himself tossed around like a leaf in a strong gust (not that'd he'd ever seen a real leaf before), before landing heavily on the thick ice sheet. His helmet landed precariously close to a sharp edge sticking out of the ground, scratching his helmet's reinforced plexiglass sightly.

"Oh, that was close." He uttered in relief, before he once again was showered in bullets. It seemed to have become one of his favourite pasttimes as of late (against his will mind you), the projectiles richoeting dangerously around him. One struck his reinforced Oxygen tank, bouncing of harmlessly, while another struck him in the abdomen. The warning lights that he had just so recently extinguished turned back on again as Valt reached for his rifle to return fire.

"oтвaли, мyдaк, бля! Am I the only damn target on this Бoгoм-зaбытый planet? Shoot someone else why dontcha?" He yelled out towards the trooper before tracing his rifle on him.

So, just because you were insulated, does not mean you resisted the cold.

"...at the start of each turn if the environment’s cold level is greater than the player’s insulation stat players lose 1 heat. If it is lesser they will gain 1 heat. Otherwise no change will occur."

In a Lineman suit (Insulation 1), + Foxhole (1 Insulation, is compared to the 4 Cold of a Heavy Blizzard. The Heavy Blizzard's Cold is greater than your insulation, so you lose a Heat.

I apologize if that part of the rules was hard to understand, and urge others to double check their heat math if they had a similar confusion.

Finally something was going right for a change Valt thought to himself as the hasty shot found it's target, the bullet crashing straight through the helmet and painting the inside with the brains of it's now deceased occupant. He rose unsteadily to his feet, having to catch himself as the wound in his side made it's protests to his movement known. He could feel the heat leaving his body as he limped forward to try and get into cover from the storm before it turned him into a popsicle.

After what must've seen to any outside observer as a heroic effort, he managed to cross the ice and make it into the outermost trench without any major complications. Standing on wobbly legs, he had to steady himself against the ice wall as a rather severe coughing fit overcame him momentarily. A small blotch of blood made it's presence known on the inside of his visor at the same moment as Command decided to grace their onboard computer systems with new weather data. He eyed both the red fleck and the new information with bleary, unfocused eyes.

"Cyкa... I don't like that." he growled to himself between clenched teeth. He continued further down the trench with uneven steps, to where the other two soldiers had made themselves at home.

>>6461103
"Oтличнo, тoвapищ. Your foresight is most welcome. This metal-хлaм will protect us against the radiation, дa?"
Valt banged the side of the machine with his balled up fist before another coughing fit almost caused him to double over in pain. He stumled over uncertainly to the side of the trenchworks and sat down heavily next to one of the dead soldiers.

The 'whump' of Bromski's grenade preceded wails of agony that were lost alongside the staccato of bullets as the snowy wind turned the screams of the dying into mere lyrical accompaniments to the cavalcade of anguished ghosts that each great Europan blizzard seemed to herald. Their souls would be in good company, for the damned did not bother her or her own, their departure from this mortal coil welcome. Farewell to human waste, may they not pollute her eyes and ears any longer. This sudden interruption of Halina's rest rotation left her with little sympathy for the enemy, nor any appreciation of even the most basic of shared human bonds. Getting shot did not help.

Lets see...

...oh, some good stuff! A full mag of 10mm, and a patch kit! Requisitioning all her fancy kit left her with precious little left to afford the basics.

The crunch of snow behind her prompted nothing but a glance over the shoulder this time. The team's recent victory left her confident that the enemy hadn't gotten any sneakier or cleverer.

"Thanks Wezelski. I'll take you up on that offer. Hand it over. I've been coughing up blood for a minute now." she said as casually as she could through a mouthful of blood.

Taking the bulky pack from the sniper, she opened it and was pleasantly surprised when she found it was the new machine assisted model. No AI, too unreliable on Europa, but some fancy tools to make complex procedures out in the field much easier.

First she took out the scanner and imaged her chest. The black blotches of her lungs were wrong, well one of them was. Her right lung was partially blotched out in blue-white. The humming machine said the issue was a hemothorax, which needed to be treated by a thoracostomy. Oh, and in addition to the blood outside her lung putting pressure on it from the outside causing it to collapse, she apparently had blood inside her lung too! Though apparently not much, since she didn't think even adrenaline could cause her to miss somehow drowning in her own blood. All of that on top of the entry wound needing debridement and suturing by the auto-scrubber/sewer and staples for veins the bullet tumbled through. Medication was Betadine swabbing, Ceftriaxone for the intubation, Lidocaine for anesthesia, saline for irrigation, various kinase for post-care recovery, and cloned blood for transfusion. The machine dinged with the eye-watering bill, which Halina responded with entering her card with a muffled sob.

Upon a ding of confirmation and the empty cheer of corporate sing-song as the box printed the recept, the med kit opened like a blooming flower into an array of spreading mechanical arms. The soldier leaned back and let the spider-limbs poke her full of holes, fill her up with miracle juices and close her back up.

...

She waited out the blizzard under the ministrations of a servant of distant war profiteers.

"Fuck me, they couldn't include a heater in that thing? All that trouble went towards letting it integrate into the suit and stick its arms inside without breaching it, and they cheap out on making sure my blood ain't gonna freeze in the meanwhile?"

>Use Wezelski's Med Kit to Heal Wounds. (4 AP. -3 Oxygen.)

This confusion comes from me not understanding how ammo in this game works, with Ammo Packs being 15 shots apiece for one inventory slot, so to clarify.

-All 10mm Ammo Packs come with 15 Ammo, despite your weapon having a magazine size of 30. Therefore,
-Your ammo tracking mostly makes sense, you just now have a stack of 4 ammo, and a stack of 15. When you "reload," you just pull from the pool of ammo to top off your existing magazine.
-As an apology for such mistakes, you may top off your ammo, at 30/30, with your remaining stack holding 14 rounds, for 0AP.

The other two shots were in a previous turn. I was pointing out that Volk hasn't missed with the CRC yet. I only fired once this turn. Also, with 2 rads I don't have rad poisoning (yet), so it's 12 O2 for 6AP. I don't have an air processor.

>>6461574
Oh, quite right, well-taken shots!

Just waiting on Crasski and Ivremski, no rush though.

His companion's rather reserved demeanor didn't phase Valt much as he observed his companion silently assemble the machinery's radiation catcher from his seat.
"Not a fan of cпиpт then?" he asked. "Я пoнимaю. Every man has his own preferred vice, дa? Not that I'd judge you for your chosen one if you would be inclined to share, тoвapищ."
He spared a quick thought to the almost berserker-like rage Crasski had embodied after taking fire for the first time. Maybe his chosen depravity was overusage of stims, a not so uncommon one here on this frozen hellscape. With the way the Europa treated it's denizens, that was hardly surprising.

Valt leaned forward slightly and withdrew a rather worn medical injector from his rear pocket. One of the older models, more used for field stabilizations rather than miracle work that the machine assisted ones were capabale off. He had never been quite at ease with the way the cold metal worked it's way over flesh like that, and had opted to retain his outdated one despite stark protests from the medical corps.
He loaded up two charges in the canister before he placed the syringe against his side where one of the bullet had ruptured his suit. The tool sank into the fabric, it's sides creating an airtight seal around the injection point before the needle plunged through the suit. A concoction of nanobots, medical glue and anesthetics made it's way into his sytem, the wound closing rapidly as the machines weaved the tissue together with the glue to plug the wound shut. He applied the second charge to his wounded shoulder, and let out a content sigh as the pain faded from his system.

"Ahh. You know—" he said to Crasski again with a slight grunt as the medical glue stitched his shoulder back together. "—my mother used to make a mean Квac. Real one, too, not that synthetic crap that comes out of the dispensers. Said the recipie was from the old country, back on Earth. If booze isn't your taste, maybe you'd like this instead? I'll be sure to get you a bottle if we live through this day, дa?".

He rose from his seat, falsely invigorated by the medical concoction flowing through his veins, and hoisted the corpse of the enemy solider over his undamaged shoulder. The poor sod was already frozen to the bone, and Valt struggled slightly before he got it out of the foxhole.
"Пoднимaйcя! This place is only for the living, дpyг. You have no need for it no more." he uttered cheerfully as he chucked the body out on to the frozen wastes. He grabbed his rifle and stood too on the fire step, scanning the horizon before deciding wether to go over the top or not.

Volk was left off the group chat again. Ah, well. His personal HUD worked well enough. And look at this. Another target walking into the same place as the recently created corpse. Brave.

Time to doubletap and then go to ground. The storm was coming. He could taste it like copper on his tongue.

RIP my time. Had a different action plan and write up all completed, before I realised I brainfarted and forgot both the fact that I can't go to 8 AP anymore with no stims, and the fact that radiation poisoning is crippling my AP economy. Was gonna storm the foxhole and Sync Fire instead.

>>6461489
"Rad's will fry you at the same time as me if the forecast holds up." Halina replied curtly.

No one was coming to rescue anyone who fell behind. Aggressive movement was key now, despite the risk. It why she was dashing forward now despite the high probability that she'd be running into the bullets of the last man standing. The air she greedily sucked down was no longer chilled enough to burn her lungs, the blizzard had died down. This was the best time to move and shoot, before the rads crippled them, before the blizzard obscured sight lines and inevitably forced close combat anyway.

The harsh rasps of her breath echoed in her helmet, the crunch underfoot reassured her of sure foot, no slip and slide. She jackknifed over the barrier, rolled off her dive, smoothly ascended to her feet and shouldered her HPF, stepping forward in a slow combat glide as she put a burst towards the panicking lone survivor.

Pretty sure you're gonna be dead in two turns from rads, same as me. Don't forget that next turn you'll get minor hypothermia, less max AP, and rad poisoning. Though you don't have to worry about the movement AP penalties, I think, because by the time you get those from the 5 rad storm, you'll be dead.

Rolled 18 (1d20)

Eh, the 16 might hit, even with the foxhole bonuses, depending on the guy's suit. Rolling for pen, just in case.

>>6464428
>Pretty sure you're gonna be dead in two turns from rads...

You're right. I'm taking a gamble. If the incoming ice quake knocks me on my ass I will not make it to the foxhole in time. But that gunner really needed to go.

If I die, I die.

>>6464428
The 14 also pens, if you'd like to roll its penetration? I can expedite processing that way if you're able to kill him.

Rolled 5 (1d6)

>>6464041
Rolling first to see if I keep my footing. 4 or above to not slip.

Rolled 13 (1d20)

>>6464451
Okay, rolling.

Valt could see no hostile movement through the gently falling snow flurry. He kept his gaze trained on the two corpses in the distance, just to make sure they were in fact actually dead and not just playing a trick on them. A little bit of paranoia perhaps, but Valt didn't want to take any chances right now as the mission seemed to be wrapping up. Another suit breach and he would certianly be done for...

Satisfied by the corpses remaining, well, corpses, Valt vaulted over the trench wall to join the rest of the ragtag group in attacking the final enemy position. He hadn't made it more than five steps from the outpost before Europa decided they'd had it too good for too long as sharp tremors shook the ice, threatening to knock him down and potentially swallow him whole. He balanced precariously on the ice and almost fell backwards but in a stroke of luck his arm caught a newly formed ice mound, and leaning on it for support he managed to remain standing as the shaking dropped in intensity.

"Maть-Eвpoпa", фиг c двa, ни oднa мaть нe дoлжнa тaк oбpaщaтьcя co cвoими cынoвьями." He ground his teeth in frustration while he struggled to keep his footing. The quake refused stubbornly to die out, small convulsions still rolling through the ice in a surefire sign another large shock was to come shortly after. He let go of the ice mound he had leaned against and set off sprinting, determined not to fall victim to one of Mother Europa's many temper tantrums. Not when the finish line for this mision was so temptingly in sight.

Sure hope that schmuck in the trench is dead, otherwise this could be it for me. Surely two wounds will be enough to kill him, right?

For the next mission it would be good if the posted map was of higher resolution to make it easier to tell who's who. We're not enough players right now to really mistake one player for another, but if we end up clumped up together or more players join it could become a problem. On the complete maps I couldn't actually read the nametags without using the zoom function on my browser.

Crasski hasn't posted in over a week. I don't think he'll be showing up any time soon.

>>6464738
>>6465360
Yeah, waiting most of the week after each turn for Crasski or whoever really slows things down. I don't mind waiting for people for an extra day after the turn is posted, because peeps have things to do, but 4 days on top of the wait for the turn and the day the turn is posted is a bit much.

Finn Crasski moves 3NW, 2N, and sets the condition to extract.

Rifleman Killed - HPF-10Eu

In a final, desperate charge to the last foxhole, you shred the last defenders. The machine gunner is hit with a single well-placed shot, while a burst from Wrona slumps the last fighter over. Bromski comes over the top as their bodies collapse and are shoved out of the way. His draining adrenaline causing shakes as his anticipated fight ends before it began.
