is that y'all know what's going on. T'Kirr, Kiley, and Blackthorne shot down on
planet, McKnight and Shelev not. Questions?
7:44:18 PM cmdrshelev: Let's make sure we're clear on rescue
plan

7:47:15 PM vadmblackthorne: You didn't see what happened to the
patrol we met right before you.
7:47:28 PM vadmblackthorne: Stunned them with wide-angle beams,
then killed them.
7:48:05 PM kileyairell: okay, so they CAN kill, but they can
also be set to stun.

7:49:53 PM vadmblackthorne: I'm not seeing much of a reason to
stun them unless we need the wide angle aspect.
7:50:04 PM majdougmcknight: +Shelev+ Commander, all drop ships
are loaded, all shuttles ready for launch. We'll require about 2 minutes for all of us to get
underway. Ready when you are.

to climb::
8:12:59 PM majdougmcknight: ACTION> Those providing
suppressive fire are still firing, however, and at Kiley's second phaser shot,
a lucky bullet passes clean through her hand.
8:13:36 PM cmdrshelev: There's no shuttle.
8:14:06 PM vadmblackthorne: ::gets to the ground, checks his
rifle, and waits for the other two::

the rock just above her, showering them with debris::

they're busy. Pull out for another 15 minutes.

second::

8:15:51 PM vadmblackthorne: ::makes double-time back through
the forest away from the suppressive fire::
8:15:53 PM majdougmcknight: MSG> Looks like we managed to
blow a hole, Commander. Surface
fire at this particular spot is sporadic.
Nothing our shields can't handle.
8:16:06 PM lcdrtkirr: ::takes one look at Kiley before bolting
out through the underbrush after Blackthorne::
8:16:11 PM cmdrshelev: Then we're staying until a friendly comes
back up.
8:16:25 PM cmdrshelev: Keep firing at anything that can shoot.

8:19:02 PM majdougmcknight: ACTION> 3 meters to T'Kirr's
right, a tree is damn near blown in half by a bright blue energy bolt. Evidently, the Machen Bren don't rely
ENTIRELY on projectile weapons.

8:21:15 PM majdougmcknight: ::Ducks behind a rock as a hail of

automated UAV's picking up the slack.
We've managed to close around...38% of the search area so far, but are
encountering
8:34:35 PM majdougmcknight: appreciable resistance. No sign of any of out pilots yet.
8:34:42 PM vadmblackthorne: They couldn't have tracked us down

8:35:57 PM kileyairell: ::applies some sap like substance to
TKirrs back to stop the bleeding, injects her with a hypo of pain meds:: Good
thing I over stock my med kit.
8:36:10 PM cmdrshelev: +Drake+ Do you have any particular
requests for ground emplacements to get blown to hell? We've just been aiming
at the biggest stuff.
8:36:29 PM lcdrtkirr: ::moans in pain just before the medication
floods her system::
8:36:30 PM vadmblackthorne: ::realizes that he's bruised all to
hell too from the blast at the rock, rolls his eyes::
8:36:41 PM kileyairell: ::moves over to the Admiral:: let me see
your wounds.
8:36:53 PM majdougmcknight: +Shelev+ Sorry, sir. At this point, we're mixing it up. Any fire from Atlantis is just as
likely to hit us as the Machen Bren.
8:36:56 PM vadmblackthorne: ::raises his arm with the two crude
bandages tied around it::
8:36:58 PM lcdrtkirr: <<They'll only get blacker
later.>>
8:37:10 PM vadmblackthorne: ::winces in pain, the adrenaline
subsiding a bit::
8:37:28 PM lcdrtkirr: ::watches the two, wondering what they'd
do without Airell with them::
8:37:50 PM cmdrshelev: +Drake+ Acknowledged. Please return to
the ground base. Unless they get more emplacements aimed upwards, we're sitting
tight up here.
8:38:12 PM majdougmcknight: +Drake+ Acknowledged, sir. Drake out.
8:38:14 PM kileyairell: Not to bad of a job bandaging sir. If it doesn't stop bleeding soon, I
think we may have to cauterize it.
::gives the admiral some pain meds, and takes a look at his ribs::
8:38:58 PM vadmblackthorne: ::winces as Kiley pokes around his
ribs:: Those were hurt when I ejected. Three hundred years and they still can't
make an ejection seat that doesn't hurt like hell.
8:39:06 PM majdougmcknight: ACTION> Just then, off in the
distance but still within earshot of Blackthorne's group, the cliche snapping
branch!
8:39:24 PM lcdrtkirr: ::looks up, alert::
8:39:30 PM vadmblackthorne: :::makes a slashing gesture at his
throat, meaning STFU::
8:39:32 PM kileyairell: ::hears the snapping twig and shuts up,
listening::
8:39:52 PM vadmblackthorne: ::thinks that he'd kill for a damn
grenade::
8:40:11 PM lcdrtkirr: ::slowly, silently, pulls out her phaser::
8:40:12 PM kileyairell: ::quietly hands TKirr her rifle::
8:40:30 PM lcdrtkirr: ::glances at Kiley, finally taking the
rifle::
8:40:30 PM majdougmcknight: ACTION> A voice is heard, oddly
quiet until one realizes someone's probably being talked to over a radio.
8:40:35 PM vadmblackthorne: ::checks the action on his rifle
and hefts it::
8:41:14 PM vadmblackthorne: ::gestures to the side of the tree
opposite the voice, making a GO gesture::
8:41:27 PM lcdrtkirr: ::creeps around::
8:41:33 PM majdougmcknight: Nameless, faceless soldier goon>
No sir, nothing yet. The trail
went dead. The creek is a likely
bet, but it goes on for some miles.
8:41:40 PM vadmblackthorne: ::quietly moves out::
8:42:01 PM kileyairell: ::stuffs her med kit back together,
closes it, grabs her phaser and heads out after the others::
8:42:15 PM vadmblackthorne: ::makes a stop gesture, hearing
that over the UT::
8:42:30 PM lcdrtkirr: ::stands, waiting::
8:43:17 PM kileyairell: ::stops and crouches down::
8:43:22 PM vadmblackthorne: ::ever so slowly moves back into the tree::
8:43:29 PM majdougmcknight: NFSG> The tree cover's fairly
thick around here. Requesting
reinforcements to search this section.
8:43:48 PM lcdrtkirr: ::tries to quiet her breathing as her legs
begin to tremble::
8:44:11 PM vadmblackthorne: ::peeks his rifle barrel out the
tree entrance and tries to find the voice::
8:44:49 PM majdougmcknight: Yes, sir. I'll meet you over the ridge. Out.
8:44:54 PM vadmblackthorne: ::scanning the forest cover with
fighter pilot eyes::
8:45:02 PM vadmblackthorne: ::sees him::
8:45:25 PM vadmblackthorne: ::smoothly squeezes the trigger and
ventilates NFSG's skull::
8:45:43 PM majdougmcknight: NFSG> ::Worst job EVER::
8:45:44 PM lcdrtkirr: ::jumps at the fire::
8:45:52 PM vadmblackthorne: Okay, now we move out, further down
the creek.
8:46:04 PM vadmblackthorne: It'll be a bit before those
reinforcements get here. Reinforcements are NEVER on time.
8:46:13 PM vadmblackthorne: Kiley, do you have any stims in
that medkit?
8:46:20 PM kileyairell: They are when you don't want them to be
Admiral.
8:46:23 PM kileyairell: Of course.
8:46:26 PM kileyairell: and TriOx
8:46:34 PM vadmblackthorne: Break them out.
8:46:42 PM kileyairell: ::takes out the stimulants and the triox
and injects them into everyone::
8:46:55 PM lcdrtkirr: ::begins to breathe more easily:: Thank
you.
8:47:06 PM vadmblackthorne: Okay, let's move.
8:47:08 PM vadmblackthorne: PAUSE SIM
8:47:10 PM vadmblackthorne: PAUSE SIM
8:47:11 PM vadmblackthorne: PAUSE SIM
8:47:12 PM lcdrtkirr: ::pauses::
8:47:18 PM kileyairell: ::pauses::
8:47:40 PM cmdrshelev: ::Resumes playing Perfect Dark::
8:47:49 PM lcdrtkirr: You two GM well, heh
8:47:58 PM cmdrshelev: I suck at the GM
8:47:59 PM vadmblackthorne: It's amazing what kind of a sim
just five really good people can have.
8:48:09 PM lcdrtkirr: ::grins::
8:48:20 PM kileyairell: assuming they are in the right position
;)
8:48:22 PM vadmblackthorne: Because that was better than most
sims with 15 people.
8:48:26 PM lcdrtkirr: Certainly was action-packed.
8:48:28 PM majdougmcknight: Next week, my NPCs chasing you stop
being gentle!
8:48:36 PM vadmblackthorne: That was gentle. Christ.
8:49:03 PM majdougmcknight: Well, sure. Did you see any grenades?
8:49:14 PM lcdrtkirr: Good point. Just exploding trees.
8:49:17 PM vadmblackthorne: Well, that rock exploded and I knew
they'd shell it given enough time.
8:49:49 PM kileyairell: Be nice McKnight, with all the drugs I'm
pumping into these people, I'm not sure how much more their bodies can sustain!
8:50:01 PM majdougmcknight: Hope you packed the happy stuff.
8:50:04 PM vadmblackthorne: Yeah, we're on stims now, watch
out. BLOODLUST.
8:50:17 PM lcdrtkirr: ::evil red tint to eyes::
8:50:28 PM vadmblackthorne: I have a feeling these three will
sleep for three solid days when they get back to the ship after this.
8:50:39 PM kileyairell: IN sickbay!
8:50:45 PM lcdrtkirr: Was just going to say =P
8:50:54 PM vadmblackthorne: Yeah, including you, Doc. :p
8:51:21 PM lcdrtkirr: You two have a all out war going on above
our heads, I'm surprised you had time to sic a few NPCs on us.
8:51:27 PM kileyairell: Oh yeah!
8:51:39 PM vadmblackthorne: Well, that's all for this
week. Catch you next week for more
excitement!
8:51:47 PM majdougmcknight: Sweet.
8:51:48 PM lcdrtkirr: Yup, see you then.
