Re: Turn 6: The Gateway to Hell

"Staff Sergeant,” said Paulson, in a stressed tone of voice. “You better take a look at this…” Morse and the rest of the squad moved toward one of the northernmost pens in the feedlot. The floor was ripped out, and the gate had been snapped off its hinges. Where the floor had been was a dark hole, ...

Re: Turn 5: A Gruesome Discovery

Knowing that he didn't have any other choice. Soles stepped forward and dropped to one knee. He balanced his off elbow on his knee and took careful aim. He waited as the incoming Xenomorph raced towards him and 2nd Squad. Breathing deeply, despite the stench he was calm and relaxed. Gently squeezing...

Re: Turn 5: A Gruesome Discovery

The motion tracker was almost useless in this building packed with huge, struggling life forms, but it pinged as three unknown targets moved, twenty-two meters ahead. Moving forward cautiously, Second Squad noticed something violent happening ahead of them. The shiny, black exoskeletons of xenomorp...

Re: Turn 4: Sappers Under the Walls

“On it, Sir.” Giosso said. With a practiced motion, he holstered his shotgun into the scabbard secured to the side of his backpack to free his hands and accessed the small tablet trapped to his forearm. He taped out a few commands, then after a pause, a few more. “No-Go, Sir.” He said with a tone t...

Re: Turn 4: Sappers Under the Walls

*Soles, watched as the barn came into view. Ironically, the one they needed to infiltrate was also the only one with no camera feeds. Upon further review he also notices that the main doors are closed and locked. "Marines, form up into your fire teams. Then setup a defensive formation facing the mai...

Re: Turn 4: Sappers Under the Walls

Soles glanced over at his superior when he absently patted him on his soldier before disappearing into the confines of the APC. Soles had studied old Earth history and remembered how members of the United States military had taken out some of their inept superiors during the Vietnam Conflict. He did...

Re: Turn 3: When Least Expected

Soles, looked around at his half dressed marines. He knew things were not going to be easy on this mission, not with a half-wit in charge. Over the Devil Dawgs' channel, she announces, "Message from Staff Sergeant Wesley. He wants us to rally at the tents as soon as we can people. I don't hear any m...

Re: Turn 3: When Least Expected

Soles, was already stirring when the scream cut through the night. He grabbed his pistol from under his pillow and slammed his socked feet into his combat boots as he setup. He strained to listen in the darkness seeking to locate the injured person outside. He was standing up and making his way towa...

Re: Turn 2: Disappearances

Soles quickly turned back to his men as they dispersed and issued one order!

"Marines, eat your fill, but do not drink more than 2 drinks. We will be falling out and inspecting some of the nearby towns at 0500 local time!"

Re: Turn 2: Disappearances

Soles could not hide a snort at the Lieutenant's ineptitude, he quickly turned and covered it with a command. "Alright, you jarheads! You heard the LT, grab your gear and head over to the Beerwolf and grab some grub." <Tag Marines> He switched over to a private comchannel and contacted Pope. "Pope, ...

Re: Turn 2: Disappearances

Soles, wasn't sure what to make of his new Lieutenant. He was definitely green, but he didn't have anything to add or ask in relation to the upcoming mission. Staff Sergeant Wesley seemed to already have picked up on the same vibes as himself. He listened intently to what Wesley had to say and began...

Re: Turn 1 - Where It All Started

Soles wasn't to keen on this new Lieutenant. This kid was greener than a baby's diaper full of poop who had eaten green vegetables that day! He noticed one of the veterans, Sixtus, was the marines name if he remembered correctly. "Boss, is it just me, or did the kid up there forget about us?" he ask...

Re: Turn 1 - Where It All Started

Soles, shakes his head, this was not going to be an easy mission as far as command was concerned. The new Lieutenant was either green and wet behind the ears or he was given the assignment to get him out of someone's way. The squad was basically on their own. The Lieutenant had not even requisitione...

Re: Turn 1 - Where It All Started

MSg. Gaston Soles, looked around at the environment. He was a new comer to the group, but he was a veteran of some time. He also knew quite abit about the Easy Eights and the Devil Dawgs, having served under James Screaming Eagle as a member of another special forces group. Seeing that the Lieutenan...
