Re: Turn 7: The Prisoner (Marines)

Sixtus had followed along behind Morse, attending to any wounds when they came up amongst the platoon. When they came to the door and had to stack up, Sixtus ignited his flamer’s pilot light and adjusted the pressure on the tank. The door was breached and they all moved in. Quinn pivoted right to ch...

Re: Turn 2: The Docking Bay

Morse and Quinn had not spoken much since their reconnecting in the unit, and certainly not much since Quinn had found his rank back to what it was when Morse had first met him. And though there was no deep bond between the two beyond having simply been in the Corps too long and having seen too muc...

Re: Turn 1: Orders are orders

Sixtus had, per usual, taken over the medical bay of the ship he was on. He had set to the task of overseeing the medical records of each Marine and updating their information, as well as updating their immunizations. He had worked through just about everyone, save for Oksana (who was last in the pr...

Re: Mission 3 Turn 14: The Truth Unveiled

Sixtus leaned away from the man with mild irritation at having been ignored. But considering the situation (Morse’s savage backhand included), what really could be said? When the scientists revealed what had been done to coerce them, Sixtus immediately throttled the urge to put a bullet in the man w...

Re: Mission 3 Turn 13: Answers

This entire mission was one for the record books. First, it started with the ship getting blown out of the sky. Then landfall, with minimal gear, survival on a planet rife with megafauna. A chance of getting some that ended in failure. And now a corporate facility, experimenting on Xenomorphs. Then ...

Re: Mission 3 Turn 12: Acid bath

When he heard the rattle of pulse rifle fire from close behind him, Quinn did what most people do when such a thing occurs. He flinched. His left arm came up to shield his face, which prevented the acid from hitting his face but most importantly, his eyes. The acid set to work immediately, and this ...

Re: Mission 3 Turn 11: Incoming

Sixtus had pulled back to shepherd the civilians when he heard the shouted warning. Xeno. His mind flashed to curving black chitin and hissing. Forcibly putting that to the side, he poked his head to the corridor to keep tabs on anybody who would need medical aid. The pulse rifles and smartguns chat...

Re: Mission 3 Turn 10: Hell Unleashed

(Writing from GM note) Before the smoke grenade filled the corridor with gray smoke, Sixtus saw two figures. Both looked like duplicates of the androids that were killed outside, and both carried rifles. They were crouched down on either side of the hallway, approximately twenty-five meters distant....

Re: Mission 3 Turn 10: Hell Unleashed

Sixtus saw the lab coats, and lack of weapons in their hands. Non-combatants , his brain classified them. Combined with the gunfire from the right, a threat was coming from that direction. ”CONTACT RIGHT!” he barked, moving to place himself between the scientists and the threat. The sniper rifle was...

Re: Mission 3 Turn 10: Hell Unleashed

Sixtus had moved in cautiously, rifle up and scanning ahead. The scope on the weapon system had several vision modes, and he flicked to Electromagnetic while backing off the magnification down to four so as to be somewhat useful. His other hand reached up to his helmet, pulling down the infrared mon...

Re: Mission 3 Turn 8: Reunion

Sixtus settled in, watching his sector with his eyes up, the sniper rifle held at the low ready. At these ranges, the scope would limit his field of vision, which would be a hindrance to spotting a potential ambush. After thinking for a moment, he gave a sideways glance to Morse. ”The Corps might be...

Re: Mission 3 Turn 6: Spotted

Sixtus was still in his hide when the sudden firefight broke out. He slowed his breathing, and took careful aim at the last remaining synthetic. As the thing dived for the body of it’s fallen comrade (and the rifle laying in the grass next to it), Sixtus took a breath, let it out and slowly pressed ...

Re: Mission 3 Turn 5: Visual

Sixtus was laying amongst the grass, his spotter, Sokolova next to him. Sgt Cano’s rifle lay in Quinn’s hands, braced against against his assault pack with the shadows obscuring the barrel of the rifle along with the rest of their position. Sixtus had taken the opportunity to obscure himself with lo...

Re: Mission 3 Turn 4: Mysterious Structure

Sixtus helped where he could, bandaging wounds, tending to what amounted to a ton of broken bones and minor lacerations. There was even one hand that was so thoroughly crushed, it had to be amputated. The medic had been known to work miracles, but there was a limit to what even he could do. He even ...
