Duncan hustled towards Ericson and Pitt. "Ma'am, Sir. I think we need to check the light with IR first. These pellets, I think they're fuel. This shifting is to sluice the fuel into the furnace or reactor or whatever's down there." What the Hell am I doing here? Duncan thought. Why did I leave Yuma ...

Duncan was shooting bursts at the crawling mass of aliens. He suddenly heard a bang and felt himself falling. All around him was darkness. Darkness and the feeling of plunging. He flailed violently, reflexively lashing out at the nothingness as he fell. Duncan hit the bottom feet first. He submerged...

At the sight of the creatures coming out from his squad's side of the bridge, Duncan flicked the safety switch on his pulse rifle to burst. Two squads on that side, two marines on this side. Should've stayed in Yuma. He began opening up on the aliens on his side. <Gun Combat> "Watch out! The bastard...

Quick question: I've been pestering commanders IC about buckshot rounds for my grenade launcher. Do I have them?

As the creature flailed and slipped over the bridge, Duncan immediately checked for any more signs of the creatures. <Awareness, Scouting> He saw the CO go over the edge, but several marines had grabbed her and were pulling her up. Sgt. Pitt ordered him to fall back across the bridge and provide cov...

Quick OOC question: Is Carter's body still on the bridge or did it go over the side?

Inside Duncan's helmet, Chappell's voice cut through the lone sound of his breathing. He aimed for the creature and squeezed off a round.

<Roll Gun Combat>

Duncan was prepared to fire more at the monster if it was still alive, or at others if they appeared.

Duncan was taken by surprise when one of the monsters leapt up and snatched Silas from right in front of him. The other was between his squad and the rest of the platoon. Despite the obvious threat in front of him, Duncan checked to see if there were any more closing in from the bridge, the doorways...

I have a question. Is third squad holding position or continuing with the rest of the platoon?

Duncan was startled by the sudden orders. He brought his pulse rifle to bear on the hallway behind the platoon. His shoulder lamp reflected off the smooth frescoed walls. Duncan ignored the eerie impression that the monsters on the walls were moving. "Roger, Sarge," Duncan responded to Pitt. He wait...

Duncan approached the door on the left. He had no real plan or inclination to open the door. From what he knew, Silas was the engineer. "Silas, you got your welder?" <Tag Silas> Duncan turned to the others. "Does anyone know if this space has life support? Any signal from the other platoon?" <Tag all>

Duncan's apprehension had disappeared in the 45 minutes they had been standing guard. His thoughts drifted towards the wiseass comments he didn't speak aloud. Sir, I've discovered rocks! My god, there's more over there! It's an ambush! He gave a soft chuckle, heard only in the helmet. His enjoyment ...

Duncan started to move out as the sergeant had instructed. He wondered how long they would be out there. He was concerned about their oxygen reserves. Exploring this chamber might take a while, and the exact nature of the site hadn't been disclosed until they came over the hill. In a hazardous envir...

Duncan nodded at Sgt. Pitt's command and readied his pulse rifle. The idea of gunfighting in a low-G environment where even a pinhole tear in his suit could be fatal didn't much appeal to him. Just keep your head on a swivel and don't make any rookie mistakes. I'd be sweating bullets if I weren't in...

Duncan ambled down the hill without much difficulty. He was trained both in survival and in the use of various HARD equipment. As he came to the bottom of the hill, he saw the unearthed doorway. He wondered how large the thing was. The whole hill? The whole asteroid? Whatever happens, make sure you'...
