Turn 6 - The sentry

Eileen cursed as Bojan and Eagle's initial success descended into a wrestling match with the dog. "Everyone forward now," Eileen pocketed her binoculars and scrambled to her feet, "Bren, Williams, secure the prisoner. Chappell, keep watch." Through the mist, Eileen could see Eagle and Bojan struggli...

Turn 6 - The sentry

"Well LT, you wanted to try and retain the element of surprise and I figure if we let L Cpl Bojan and L Cpl Eagle try it their way we might be able to do so for a while longer. Although it's probably a good idea to get our better shots sighted in first." "Agreed. Alright, Bojan, Eagle, let's see if...

Turn 6 - The sentry

"Got a single guard with a dog 150 metres ahead," Eileen spoke softly into the comm, alerting the others. "Bojan, you see that group of boulders ahead, he's right by there. Get a rifle sighted on him and another on that dog. Don't take a shot yet though." "Chappell, I don't see anything else. Keep y...

Turn 5 - In the mist

Eileen finally lowered her computer to look up at the surreal effect of the mist on the landscape. Normally the effect would be eerie, right now though it was welcome cover in the sparse terrain. Looking in the direction indicated by the map she couldn't make out so much as a sign of the base throug...

Turn 4

"Hey Lieutenant, we going to be working together as a platoon on this one?" "Sticking together," Eileen replied, "We'll sweep through the base starting from wherever they're numbers are concentrated, then wipe out whoever's left." Eileen gave her own gear a final check, before climbing down to the ...

Turn 4

Eileen raised her voice to be heard over the rumble of the dropship, "The dropship will take us to two kilometres from the base, unless it there's a danger we'll be seen. The rest we do on foot." "We'll move into position to observe the base, get an estimate of enemy numbers." "Priest, how long till...

"We don't have numbers on the pirates," Eileen replied, "Intelligence says it's a small base, but that's one of the things we'll have to confirm for ourselves." "They've got access to spacecraft. I want to prevent them ever getting near them if possible, but we're going to take one M112 HIMAT missil...

Turn 3

Eileen stood in front of the assembled marines and gave the group a moment to settle before commencing the briefing. "Alright, we've got a straightforward job this time," Eileen glanced briefly in Williams direction, before continuing, "Command has located a small pirate base on Lambda Serpentis IV....

Turn 2

"What are going to do?" Williams asked defensively as she testingly moved closer to Lt Vincents blocking arm. Eileen snorted a humourless laugh, then slammed her forearm across Williams shoulders, pinning her against the wall. “Let me think, do I bounce you off a bulkhead or two, or do I take my ...

Turn 2

Williams nervously bit her lower lip and gave Lt Vincent a worried look. "Let me go..." she said, almost begging. "For god's sake," Eileen snapped angrily. Until Williams started blustering Eileen hadn't really been sure, but now it was obvious Intelligence had something they weren't telling her. "...

"Copy that Lieutenant Vincent, where we having it, in the hangar?" Steele asked. "Yeah, can't make it too comfortable, I want everyone awake. I need to check on a couple of things first, round 'em up if they look like they're enjoying breakfast too much," Eileen took a final mouthful of her food an...

Turn 2

Eileen picked at the tasteless, but no doubt nutritious sludge that had been dished out as breakfast. Half her attention was on her current conversation, and half watching her platoon. They seemed cheerful enough, or at least as cheerful as anyone hauled out of a cryotube and presented with a USMC b...

"Vincent- seems like first and reccie have found some kind of cave system, that they are currently in. They don't really seem sure to as where they are." he spat some dip at the floor "maybe if the flyers here can locate an exit, me and Wolf can descend with some rope and help them get to the surfa...

He then looked over to the LT: "Vincent- Make sure these flyboys give us cover" Morrison spat at the metal flooring underneath him "and also, have you heard from from the rest of our guys? Are we still headed for the tower?" Eileen nodded, "We'll overfly the position from the air first. Whoever the...

Turn 11 Rifle 2

"Vinnie, there's nothing here." Morrison dug the toe of his boot into the pile of rubble infront of him, and spat "first and recon are waiting for us, let's get a move on, ok?" Morrison tried to not make his voice betray the tension that he felt building up. Eileen took a final look over what was l...
