USH'S MATRIX GAME 2006 THIRD ASSIGNMENT- 'The Fortress'

That's a pretty good bet.

And indeed, I'm happy with everything. Let the spiders eat San! I mean, er, let us take them down!

Stupid spiders...

Just a quick question, about how big ARE they, anyway? Like, compared to a person?

Shelob size, as Ush said.

Which means that my character, who unlike others is not a combat freak, feels a bit uneasy right now....

We still haven't had half the people post and say where they are, let alone post powers or anything, so I'd say we're not entirely ready...which is a very good question, just where is everyone (players, I mean)?

I am afraid Fire and Mirage have missed recent posting deadlines so I shall have to count them out.

Meanwhile, some people appear to have been taken by surprise. Team Leaders were not in control of positioning. All those undeclared start in the middle, and lose a turn.

There is the situation, you have initiative, get going!

Well, time to find out how this is going to go...

San will start out by tapping IB on a sentinel, slashing her knives at the closest one.

Hmm, it seems that I am low on encumbrance, can I have two more Glocks, Ush?

"**** it, there are two many of them!"- Melkor will tap CC and fire at the nearest spiders with one of his Glocks...

"We can't get stuck fighting them all. We need to keep moving!"
CC to fire with his Ingrams.

"Time to show the Itsy Bitsy Spiders who's boss!" Hawk dashes forward and spins into a tornado of blade-y pain between two Sentinels, with PM.

Grinning, Barb bounds towards his Foes.

Tap PM against two Sentinels.

Berserker takes his knife and stabs at the head piece of one of the Spiders.

(By the way guys I just thought of something. These things are Sentinels in the shape of a Spider. Well the Sentinels have Laser beams so that probably means they will have some equivalent in here most likely a string of webs.)

(Newjak, shh. Don't give Ush any ideas. 😛 )

(Dude, shut up! *attempts to hypnotize Ush into forgetting the last posts*)

Run for cover and unload on the nearest sentinel.

"I count ninety," Ares says, raising his machine pistol and unloading with a series of bursts on a Sentinel at the North Columns, Middle. "Take 'em down and move out!"

Swap 10B for CC.

Mors moves forwards and under one of the Sentinel arachnoids in Throne West, thrusting his katana upwards into it's thorax.

-

Using SS for dice, to specify.

Helios will tap VG against a Sentinel (Throne West).

I think that'd be a bit of a waste, Helios...

Alright, Helios will fire his shotgun at a Sentinel (Throne West).
