>[x] Go over mission details with team.

We need to stick together.

[X] Go over mission details with team.

>>18774971
Mission deets.

I assume this means that Elise eventually got around to uncuffing us at some point.

Oh well, all good things.

>>18775079

>This is the next day.

>Also consensus achieved apparently.

[1] Go over mission details with team.
[2] Double check load-outs and core status.
[3] MOUNT UP (Start mission).

In that order.

[X] Go over mission details with team.

Usually the best place to start.

>>18774971
[ ] Go over mission details with team.

Mission Details.

[X] Double check load-outs and core status.

That ninja makes me paranoid. What if someone rigged our core during the sex?

"Right, let's go over the details of the mission." You say, as the team gathers around a projector screen Mooch has set up. "We were hired by a corp called Rayleonard to help salvage some form of failed experiment. Mooch?"

"Rayleonard specializes in energy based technology. Anywhere from more efficient batteries to reactors for Cores to power-plants for cities. This computer, the plant that ran Hope, your core, that generator on the tool truck in the corner? All got their stamp on it. Rayleonard is one of the Global 'Super-Corps', One of only about 15 worldwide. In terms of power and resources they're comparable to a small nation. A small, Very wealthy Nation."

"Right. We've been tasked as a security escort for one of their science teams. Apparently they think there's going to be trouble for them. Probably bandits, or maybe another Corp planning to make a grab for the tech before they can get it."

Laurie raises a hand "Where exactly are we going?"

"We're going to be meeting them just South of the city limits. Info from there gets vague, but it looks like there was a research facility of the eastern end of Lake Mead. I f we aren't going there, it's gotta be close. Anybody else have any questions?"

[ ] Yes (specify)
[ ] No

>>18775303
[X] Yes Are we deploying full force for this mission?

>>18775303
[x] Yes (specify)
What if we have to ditch the experiment? Do we have any instructions on that? Like blow it up if it'll fall into enemy corp hands?

[X] Yes (Any ideas on what we might be fighting, if anything?)

>>18775303
Yes, are there any bandit groups known for operating in that area? What corps directly compete with Rayleonard and would thus be interested in stealing this. How large of a convoy is it going to be? Do we know anything about the research facility we'll probably be going to? About how long are we expected to be out there?

>>18775326

"Standard escort formation. We'll be bringing Ari's rig along just in case, but just me, Laurie, and Dave will be mounted up to start with."

>>18775328

"No idea, we're just an escort. We'll try and leave that sort of decision to the people paying us."

>>18775346
>>18775334

"Either bandits trying to roll us, or some other corp's snatch team. Can't imagine anybody else even having a REASON to be out there. As for specifics... not a whole lot of intel from the area. Not much right there other than the top secret research facility."

>>18775400
so Mooch and El's rigs will be left at the base then?

>>18775423

>....Why?

>I'm sorry, but why would you want to leave behind two cores with experienced pilots when you have room to bring them and are expecting trouble?

>>18775400
They given us any idea on the value of what they're transporting or do we only know that it's protection was worth 500k+expenses?

What type of terrain can we expect and are there any obvious choke/ambush points, really bad terrain, canyons we have to cross through that sort of thing?

>>18775447
I was just getting clarification you only stated Dave Alex laurrie and Ari's units I wanted to know where the others ended up that's all

>>18775423
They just wouldn't be in their cores, on the field initially. They'd be in the carrier as back up.

>>18775459

"No obvious choke points that I can see, although we are going to skirting kinda close to the Grand Canyon."

>As for what they're after: It's a mega-corp with experimental tech. You're a hired gun. They told you so little about it you're amazed you aren't forgetting things.

>>18775540
Were we given any bonus objectives?

>>18775574
Less collateral damage?

>>18775574

"Details are supposed to be handed out after we link up with the main party. We don't really know much beyond the fact that we're probably going to have to shoot things."

>Anything else?

>>18775595
Loadouts

>>18775595
check our gear and head out

>>18775595
Loadouts, grumble a bit about fucking corps not giving us full information for tactical decisions.

>>18775595
Let's check our load-outs, make sure we're good to go before we roll out.

The team satisfied with what they have for answers right now, you all go to check out your own gear.

>CURRENT CORE SET-UP.

>Any Questions? Changes you'd like to make?

>>18775734
What do we have lying around that we could stick on the AC? Any other weapons we could use instead or parts that it'd be easy to play mix and match with?

Do the Legs have any weight or is that figured into their Weight support already?

>>18775734
Looks good

>>18775734
How would rearming mid battle work? Is that possible if we had the others cover, us could we return and grab ammo real quick?

>>18775763

>You don't actually have much in the way of parts customization.

>I mean, you spent the money you could've spent on that fixing all the little kinks in your core so it ran like new.

>>18775734
We don't really have the money to be looking at any new weapons or parts.

I think this is good.

>>18775774

>It's not inconceivable to pack some spare guns on the carrier for re-equip/resupply.

>But you don't have anything more than spare ammo at the moment.

>>18775792
What because of the Flailgun thinger?

>>18775810

>No, it's because you're running just a hair above broke with 300 hungry mouths to feed and a small mountain of debt.

>Which is why you're here, doing a job, in the first place.

>>18775824
Shit I meant what became of it

[x] MOUNT UP (Start mission).

>>18775828

>You have it, but it would be next to impossible for you to use.

>Remember, the guy you stole it from had his entire core built around it.

>You could try to sell it for some extra dosh, but that's something you don't have time for right now.

>>18775828
that's a specialized weapon that we have no clue how to use man, I don't think bringing it on a mission to use for the first time would be a good idea

>>18775792
Cool pack some extra ammo then head out.

ack as much extra ammo as we have room for, particularly extra rounds for Dave's Hot Rod (since he can only carry three shots for it), then
>[x] MOUNT UP.

Satisfied with how things look, you give a quick heads up to your team. They all shoot you an acknowledgement of your order, and signal that they're ready.

Without further delay, the cores are loaded and the carrier moves out.

Before long you're sent a hailing signal from the leader of thier in-house security, a man who introduces himself as Berlioz.

>brb, I need to get my notes and shit together for the next bit.

That ninja is still making me paranoid.

>>18775938
We need to be as professional as possible with this "Berlioz" fellow.
Always best to have a good working relationship with your employer's in-house security guys.

>>18775938
Be professional and courteous to Berlioz. Get details on him, their own personal security, if he pilots an AC how good he is and any mission relevant details.

>>18775955
^this all the way

>>18775955
Agreed.

>>18775955
>>18775967
Pretty much these two.

>>18774971
Wait Berlioz, as in #1 Original LINX. We better be shooting for the best dam relationship we can with him, sorry Elsie your out.

You take the call.

"You're Zin? Leader of your little squad?"

"Yes."

"Berlioz. How many cores have you got?"

"Six. Three will be ready for a running patrol in ten minutes, others kept on reserve."

"Acknowledged. Any room in the hangar?"

"maybe enough to Squeeze in another Core if we tried. Why?

"Because I'm coming over to brief you in person. I don't like broadcasting sensitive information."

You order one of the bay doors open, and you see a core come sliding in moments later. It looks strange compared to other cores you've seen, almost lanky and gaunt. It's also slightly taller than any of the other rigs in your bay, save Ari's heavy core.

After it lands, it kneels slightly, and you see the Ace's custom emblem on the side. It's a simple crimson drip off of a Guillotine's edge.

Then the man, who you assume is Berloiz himself, climbs down out of the cockpit and walks over to you across the hanger floor. He has the same presence as his core: dark and foreboding, but not evil. Like walking through an old graveyards and feeling the eyes of the departed on you.

He stops about six feet away from your team. "Here safe to talk? Or do you want to go somewhere more private?"

[ ] Here.
[ ] Briefing room.

>>18776126
Here should be fine.

>[x] Briefing room.

>>18776126
Briefing room, the chairs are softer and we can pull up maps and the like if they're needed.

>>18776126
Briefan Room.

Hangar was infiltrated before might be better in the briefing room.

>>18776126
Breifing room

Briefing room.

>>18776126
[x] Briefing room.
More secure and has access to maps if we need them.

Briefing room.

>>18776126
This is a briefing and we have a briefing room for a reason.

>>18776126
[ ] Briefing room.
weve got one might as well use it

rolled 53 = 53

If the low rolls in MSQ are any indication, we should have good results here.

>>18776208
Actually, MSQ rolling low would be bad for us.
They get all the low rolls, and we get stuck with the high rolls.

>>18776126
Here

also, has mooch actually cleared the ship for bugs and stuff? Wouldn't the briefing room be the number one place to plant bugs, if you were going to?

>>18776280
The best time they had for that was during the plan to blow the place up, there wouldn't have been much sense in planting bugs then.

That aside, I'm sure he has.

"We have a proper briefing room just up those stairs. Bit more private, plus it has screens and such."

"Convenient." he comments, before giving a simple 'lead on' gesture. You go to the room, and Mooch slides him the control tablet. The seven of you sit down.

"This is Lake Mead," He says, pulling up a picture of a large body of water. "That little red mark is where our lab used to be, and the experiment escaped containment. The subject, a mentally unstable man who answers to Q-Tip stole an advanced prototype core from Rayleonard."

"Wait," Dave cuts in "I thought this was a recovery mission, us running security while you guys went in and cleaned up."

"And you were told a lie. Not my choice, but the higher-ups wanted some secrecy. This man was brilliant, but unstable. We brought him in to protect him from enemies he made, but he took advantage of our goodwill and plots terrible things with an advanced Core. We can't have that, because that would be an unspeakable tragedy for him to land in, say, Vegas and start blowing up random civilians in the suberbs on the western outskirts." So he clearly knows exactly who you are. "Besides," He adds in a deadpan "That would be bad for business. So my mission is to kill him before he escapes the perimeter, marked as that blue circle. Yours is to stay with the Caravan, because if he breaks out, the Egg-heads are going to reel him right in. Perfect bait, not that they'll like that. Which is why I never told them."

He looks around. "Any questions?"

>>18776343
There was mention of bonus oppurtunitys on the job posting, mind explaining what those would be?

>>18776343
A: If it does come to the point where WE have to protect the caravan what would except-able losses be?
B: If it does come down to one of us taking down the core are we granted any salvage rights?

>>18776343
I'm sure you know everything about our team here, you've read our dossiers, know our ACs as well as us and probably know what we had for breakfast.

However we are operating on very little information concerning you. Given that we're working together could you give us a basic rundown of the capabilities of both yourself and your Core.

What would you say the likelihood of him slipping past you and with what level of damage and getting to us?

What is his core specced for and what are this Q-Tips specialties in combat?

>>18776343
How will the eggheads act as bait and what is our duty to the egg heads? Do we protect them or to we attack q-Tip? Both?

what are the specs of the Experimental core (just a brief outline if its too classified.)

What are your Core's own specs?

>>18776343
"On the unlikely but still possible chance that the target gives you the slip and comes after us, what kind of firepower is he packing? What can we expect from this guy and his Core?"

>>18776360

"Shmuck bait, more than likely. You probably won't see any action, since I'm here personally with some of my support team. If however, he breaks containment and you can drop him before he does something terrible to the 'recovery team'," He actually does the little finger quotes thing "I'll make sure a little extra is thrown your way."

>>18776380

>Generally bad form to ask how many people you can let die before you get in trouble.

>Also, salvage rights on highly experimental classified proprietary technology there's there to specifically contain? Really?

>>18776406
>>18776402

"Sadly, a lot of the information about either my core or his is off the table, just because Rayleonard's very hush hush about such things. Since you know, we have to worry about corporate espionage. I can however tell you that the stolen experimental core is very unsubtle and very high speed. Literal walls of fire and such. It will be VERY obvious. It's also got some sort of experimental energy shielding. It's not AMAZING, so if you throw enough bullets at it it'll die, shortly followed by the core itself. Luckily other than the shield and the pretty big guns it's got, it's pretty fragile. Any other information is 'need to know', and frankly: you don't."

>>18776456
Alright sounds

well not good but like something we can do at least

Let's get this over with..

>>18776456
well I'm sure not every single nut and bolt is super top secret experimental parts, i was thinking more along the lines of stock and shelf parts that they don't need back

>>18776467
agreed

So what's Armored Core quest about aside from giant robots?

>>18776456
>Literal walls of fire and such. It will be VERY obvious. It's also got some sort of experimental energy shielding.
(this is that "weaponizing Primal Armor" thing you discussed in the crunch thread, isn't it?)

>>18776485

>Those do not exist, in relation to anything resembling a NEXT.

>>18776502

>HAHAHAHA not telling.

>>18776456
How likely is he to break containment and if he does what is the likelihood that he'll be at least somewhat damaged by you.

I don't need any of your secret details on the energy shielding but how much does it actually stop, saying it's not amazing doesn't give us that much to go on.

>>18776510
BRING HIM TO ME SO I MAY CRUSH HIM, SEE HIM DRIVEN BEFORE ME, AND HEAR THE LAMENTATIONS OF HIS WOMAN!

>>18776510
Great so this is basically a next. Lets killit.

>>18776501
Team and family interpersonal dynamics and beating down ninjas with lead pipes.

Mostly giant robots though.

>>18776510
AHAHAHAHAHAHA, we now know were dealing with a NEXT now and not just assuming, well what ever, we can still salvage any bandits or other company's that come after us,
oh dam thats an idea
C: should we be expecting any meddling from other companies?

>>18776456
Alright, let's just take a look at the terrain that we're going to be dropping the scientists in.
Maybe we can get the carrier and Elsie set up in a sniper position beforehand.

>>18776514

"No too likely, assuming I can draw a bead on him. And if I can't, I have several high-powered snipers on the perimeter. And if THEY fail... well at that point I'd say he should take up gambling, because Lady Luck is on his side."

"As for the shielding.... Yeah, not allowed to tell you any more than that. No really, I'm not even sure I was supposed to be able to tell you THAT much, but if Branson's going to be THAT anal about security then he can go fuck himself. I'm not handing out blueprints, but I'm also not going to NOT give you a heads up that bullets might not work."

>>18776558

"Now THAT is a damned good question. Far as I know, nobody knows shit about anything. But SOMETHING might have leaked to somebody, so then we have to ask some unfortunate questions. Just don't shoot at anybody that isn't the mission target unless they shoot at you first. Then you can claim self defense and hide behind OUR lawyers for that."

Alright I have no complaints then. Shall we sortie now?

>>18776614
How will the science-types be acting as bait? With technology devices or as revenge-targets?

>>18776614
This shielding is interesting, we should try to use energy weapons on it if at all possible.

Thanks for giving us that much despite the policy to keep us in the dark.

I'm guessing if I ask you who exactly you were I'd be told it was classified but I may as well check.

I can't think of anything else to ask so we may as well go sortie.

We'll want to find places with good visibility, large amounts of cover and a narrow lane of approach so we can fill him with dakka.

>>18776614
all right lets launch

Okay, we should have little sis ready to roll out and make an offering of BOOM FOR THE BOOM GOD! if we can't put the guy down.

>>18776674
wait one more question.
D: If we do encounter additional forces from opposing company's do WE retain the rights to salvage?

>>18776614
"You keep saying 'Shoot it with bullets' when it comes to this shielding. Are energy weapons no good, or is that classified?"

>>18776643

"He hates 'em. All of Rayleonard, because we wouldn't let him just start shooting nukes everywhere. Seriously, he's fucking crazy."

>>18776666
>>18776674
>>18776641

"Yeah, we'll be getting there in about an hour. Good point about picking your ground, I'll let you make the call there. I'm going to go link up with Anjou and get ready for our kill mission."

He leaves the room and goes back to his core.

Your team moves to their cores.

[ ] Deploy Ari, have Mooch run over-watch.
[ ] Deploy Mooch, have Ari run over-watch.

>>18776717
Deploy Mooch Ari on overwatch. We need to give Mooch another chance to be awsome.

>>18776685
[ ] Deploy Mooch, have Ari run over-watch. We are not let her run real combat yet way to soon
>>18776717
^still want to know

>>18776717
How has Ari been doing in the sims?

>>18776717
Deploy Mooch, Ari over watch.

Good to have a solid pilot on the ground and give Ari some overwatch experience,

>>18776731
Fail links are backwards

>>18776717
What are Mooch's armaments?

Our goal if the guy doesn't get taken out is to unload as much Dakka and explosions on the guy as possible as fast as possible so Ari's AC is probably more suited to it.

Then again she is our Albatross and Mooch is our best pilot so toss Ari in Overwatch and this hopefully won't bite us in the ass.

How has Ari been doing in the Sims anyway?

>>18776733

>Very well, according to Dave. The limited time she's been running puts her long range accuracy not far below Elsie, and she can hold her own against Dave and Mooch together, assuming she gets to pick the battleground.

>She also clocked a 60% synch rate the first time she clumb in her core for a synch test, so as much as Alex would hate to admit it, she would probably be fine in combat.

>>18776752
>>18776737
>>18776731
>>18776727


yay?

>>18776778
...wow. When did she get so good?

We're keeping her on overwatch, though. Maybe she can come along when we get a more conventional job.

>>18776778
NEVER!!! she's are baby sister and we shall treat her as such until we Absolutely have to admit it,
I'd still like to know if we get Salvage rights to any company core's from meddling company's

>>18776778
Dayumn, that is pretty fucking impressive.

I'm still against putting her in the actual field, I'd rather not have a chance of her freaking out, combat paralysis and so on when we've got a next gen AC barreling at us covered in experimental goodies and hate. It is not a good first job.

She beat our Synch rate, I'm not sure that's fair. Also with that Synch rate if she gets hit the feedback will massively suck for her, she's not used to it and I doubt her toughness is as absurdly good as ours.

>>18776792
Maybe we can have her join us in the arena? Should be safe enough for getting actual practice.

>>18776801
She's also got dumb armor, IIRC, to prevent that sort of feedback.

>>18776801

>Fair points, but she's also packing an over-weapon.

>Still your choice, just reminding you.

>>18776822
This is the first real mission with her out here.
Overwatch.

If we get the chance for an easy mission later, THEN she can deploy. For now she's watching.

>>18776845

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pBKlm-RX2zU

We mount up.

Then we kick ass.

>>18776822
my vote stands with ari overwatch

Am I allowed to vote?

Does my vote matter?

>>18776891

>Everyone's allowed to vote.

>Just beware the possibility of getting outvoted.

>>18776891
Yes, it's just a little pointless now.

IM going to die.

Yeah, because we're letting you go out on your own, right?

>>18776941
No because IM NOT BUILT FOR THIS.

>>18776941

>I find myself curious as to whether you're the real Dave.

>Somehow I doubt it.

>>18776956

I am not. But I will take on his character. Care to try me? You still haven't beaten my high score, after all.

>>18776955
Are you kidding? You've got boolits out the wazoo which is exactly what we need here.

>>18776955

You are built for this you paranoid nutcase, and you'll place yourself behind Alex whether you like it or not. I know about your tranquilisers. Put them down. Get in your core. Yes, now. NOW.

>>18776989
...We tried this before.
Remember the first time I was in combat?

.....Remember when I ALMOST DIED!?!
Plus you know....Ari's core has BOOLITS, and OVERWEAPONS. and ARMOR!

You tell Ari to get to the command booth, while Mooch goes to mount up in his core.

Pretty soon, you're set up in a staggered formation in a wide open field, ready to intercept the core should it appear. Elsie's got a nice line of sight, Lawrence has set recon probes in a perimeter, and You, Dave, and Mooch are standing in a circle around the recovery Team's small mobile carrier.

>Give me a d20 roll.

>>18777017

And you, you maniac, allowed her to do that. Now we can only hope she's half the pilot you hope she is. It'd be such a waste otherwise...

>>18777017
what are you trying to tell us you don't have any weapons equipped? or that you forgot to resupply your ammo?

rolled 9 = 9

>>18777029

I'm ready.

>>18777017
Well it was also three on one and your core was low on ammo. This time it'll be four on one , also Aris mech isn't good at quickly dodging WALLS OF FLAME. So y'know just thought I'd point that out.

rolled 14 = 14

>>18777029

>>18777017
OH and it can run OVER WATCH from the FIGHT

rolled 14 = 14

>>18777017
It also has a technically proficient but completely inexperienced pilot, a giant neon sight saying kill me first and no chance of getting out of dodge if she is chosen as a target. Against what we've heard of literal walls of fire and super speed the best chance of living if you're chosen is to run and hope it dies before it catches you.

>>18777029
All we wanted was a nice quiet mission, now we will have an experiment barreling at us like the fist of an angry god.

rolled 5 = 5

>>18777029

>>18777030

>It's like watching one of my best friends get a personality transplant.

rolled 4 = 4

>>18777055
I suppose is isn't YOUR Dave, then.

>Average for the rolls is what, 12?

Berlioz's voice comes over the coms. "He's clear, saw us coming and tried to rabbit. Luckily a couple of my snipers hit him and crippled his shield system. He'll be coming in for you next, and probably from the west. We've trying to get him on the satellite, but we're getting some sort of interference...."

>Wat do?

>>18777088

>He already said as much.

>Doesn't make it any less creepy.

rolled 19 = 19

>>18777113

Take his attention. Focus your fire on his core. I don't fucking exist until I place my heat-rod into his face.

Give me just one minute.

"Ari, focused fire on my position belay five, wait for my signal!"

>>18777113
Get into intercept positions.
Go for crippling it or taking out the cockpit, we want this thing intact for the folks at Rayleonard.

>>18777113
Expect there to be another group. Its possible that this crazy bastard broadcast his location to another corp. Stay sharp protect the egg heads.

>>18777113
Thanks for the info, you probably won't be able to catch up with him but give it a shot. We have positions to get as much fire downrange as possible, if we can't take him out quickly but are able to delay him the smallest bit I'd like you on his ass to take advantage of any loss of speed he may experience.

Get into position to intercept and have the most overlapping fire available. Our first priority is taking him out, keeping the pilot or core alive is secondary.

If he gets close Mooch and Dave will intercept further and try to double team him with melee while Elsie and us keep on blasting dakka.

rolled 17 = 17

>>18777141

I swing around from the outside, Let's force him to a surrender, if not, let me fuck this child up.

rolled 17 = 17

Go for intercept. Have Elsie start sniping. When it gets close enough fire missile walls and HS rockets.

>>18777153
>If he gets close Mooch and Dave will intercept further and try to double team him with melee while Elsie and us keep on blasting dakka.

Melee....

Uhhhh

Fuck no...

rolled 6 = 6

>>18777175

"Got him in my sights, you orders, sir!"

>>18777182
..sir... I can get rid of him, sir....!

Okay see what's messing with the sat because it is liekly to interfere with ari's job anyways. Keep mooch mid range where he freaking belongs and have dave sneak in close.

(Captcha: nvirwa reason)

>>18777182
Uhhhh... not to ruin your fun, but that doesn't seem like some thing Dave as we know him would say. AC Guy isnt the only one getting weirded out.

>I'm not sure which is funnier, the fact that /tg/ cannot into tactics today, or the fact that it's so bad that MOOCH is the voice of reason.

>I shouldn't be posting this, but I am laughing so hard that I think I need a need a minute before I could continue.

>>18777175
Do you suggest that if he gets close that we let him get in melee with Elsie and Alex?

It is suboptimal I agree but his shield is down, and hopefully we will damage something important or take it out before it gets to that point and we'll delay having to melee as along as possible. But out of all of the people to cross swords with this guy Mooch and Dave are the better choices. If we can't take him out we just have to delay him and live long enough for Berlioz to catch back up.

We delay and missle spam and shoot it out as long as possible but if it gets way too close those two are the ones who have to stab it.

>>18777211

How about fuck you. I love the guy, but on a mission I follow a chain of command. Alex outranks me, so fuck if I won't follow my old soldier training. We lost Hope, I won't let my own lax nature lose any fucking colony again, you hear?

>>18777216
Have Mooch run some close up interference, not actually fighting melee with it, while we put a few rounds in his face

>>18777234
Hearing this is head canon dave's voice made me choke like three different times.

>>18777234

>I actually just got a call from real Dave asking who the hell you are.

>>18777263

Just someone who wants to play a character in this great drama you're creating.

>>18777234
>Diffrence between me and this bastard is that I had my name FIRST. Like BEFORE this quest thread.

Im built for bullets.
I Have no melee weapons.

THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE?
STOP TRYING TO KILL ME!

>>18777263

>I'm pretty sure he's inventing new curse words at this point.....

>>18777273
That isn't how this game works.

There is already a Dave. The character is based on a real person and isn't just a persona for you to adopt and interpret in your own way.

Please stop.

>>18777234
Well if you are going to role play then try and get the character right. You sound next to nothing like the way Dave is made out to be.

-Concerned Anon

>>18777280
Mooch calm down mooch, It's suposse to be impossible for you to get high blood pressure!

BULLET SPAAAAAAAAAAAM.

Mooch and Alex try to fill him with holes while Elsie waits for a good shot. Dave is in reserve.

Okay guys, Mooch is not built in any way shape or form for melee. So why don't we keep him with Elsie and then Alex and Dave can go close. Laury is the go between covering any slip ups.

>First we derail over Chinese food.

>Then we get derailed by somebody who cannot into Quest threads.

>What the fuck is GOING ON in this quest?!?

>>18777312
What can we say? Giant robots bring out the crazies.

>>18777113
Ok, so here's what I'm thinking. Have Elsie start taking pot shots at the guy. Meanwhile, get Ari to see what kind of range this guy has. I'm guessing EVERY RANGE but better safe than sorry.

>I'm starting to regret posting an open wat do, I should have just made a list of choices like normal.

>>18777297
HAVE YOU EVER SEEN FIRE ON ME!?
I HAVE, ITS NOT FUN!

>>18777307
>>18777303
I agree with these very sane...Very shmart, Very nice people here.

>>18777333
Not too late...

>>18777289

I'm ready with the backup Alex meant me to be. A month ago I might have well outranked him but Shit, now he's done what none of us individually couldn't.
>Alex, what do?

>>18777336

These people think I'm a problem, with this maniac running around.

>>18777317
Well said and well met good sir

>>18777312
You managed to attract an idiot for a little while.
Seriously, he makes Shinji look like a child prodigy.
But it's okay, I think he's stopped.

>>18777362
WHY MUST I SPEAK WORDS!!

>>18777333
We all pretty much agree on setting up a field of death for it to cross. Our arguing point is what to do if it lives and gets into its effective range. It isn't going to be particularly pretty either way.

>>18777362
You spoke too soon.

>>18777348
>>18777361

>I actually can't tell if a troll is fucking with us, or if we managed to attract the same caliber of person who does those Gundam RPs....

>>18777348
Dude, you are being That Guy.
That's not how this quest works.

>>18777348
>>18777361
I really don't know how to explain this to you any more clearly. You are not Dave. You are not doing this right. Stop posting for a while. Observe how the other people in this thread are behaving. Act more like them and less like the way you are currently acting.

I can understand that you are confused because there is a Mooch the poster and a Mooch the character. This is because Mooch the poster is the actual person that Mooch the character is based on, he knows AC-Guy in real life. There is another actual person who is the basis for Dave, you are not him and should not post as though you were.

>>18777365
I'm thinking we try and get Dave into a position where he can pull off another Killington. Force Q-Tip to maneuver around missile spam, keep him busy. Remember that Berlioz and his team should be catching up in a bit. Damn, having Ari on the field would have been a good idea...

And Mooch has HS rockets right? Those should be effective against a target generating walls of fire.

>>18777400
In all honesty its probably both.
Look on the bright side, you've become popular enough that people seem to be trying to stop "THE RAPE TRAIN" that AC-Quest has Become

>>18777427
THIS MAN!
HE KNOWS WHAT IVE BEEN TRYING TO SAY!
THANK YOU SIR!

>>18777430
Their efforts are futile, for we have no brakes.

You calculate your options, setting up a kill box might be the most effective way to deal with him, but if it's too loose he could slip though and hit the Caravan you're supposed to be guarding. If it's too tight, and he's half as fast as he seems to be, he could go around you and score some kills before you could try and intercept.

You could also go on the offensive, but that holds it's own risks....

[ ] Loose staggered formation.
[ ] Tight, hidden kill-zone.
[ ] Try and take the offensive.
[ ] Ask Ari and Lawrence for additional data.

>>18777436
Also it should be noted that you DO have a HIGH-GODDAMN-LANDER blade tucked into your chest.

>Reserve: Highlander [Physical Blade]: DR 12, SPECIAL (Due to arms, Reserve weapon can swap with either arm's equipped part as a swift action).

>>18777456
Additional Data, we need additional data.

[x] Tight, hidden kill-zone.

It's all about the tactics

>>18777439
So what do you say we just ignore the speed bump and keep on raping

>>18777459
My obsession with Claymores has backfired.


Well played sir.

>>18777456
The best defense is a good offense.

>>18777456
Tight hidden kill zone. The job is to protect the egg heads, so lets do that regardless of whether this makes the mission more difficult or not. going on the offensive would just give him the chance to blow right on past us.

>>18777456
[ ] Ask Ari and Lawrence for additional data.

>>18777456
ADDITIONAL DATA

>Tight, hidden kill-zone
might be effective against a slower less experimental target
>Try and take the offensive.
No idea what his capabilities are, best we play safe for now
>Loose staggered formation
This is the best tactic for now. Loosely spread net, not easy pickin' but not clumped together and easy to go around.

>>18777456
We must build additional Pylons

>>18777491

>I have no idea what that's a vote for.

I preferred it when the derailing topic was sweet and sour pork.

>>18777473
Also, is the Guardian like a shield? Not sure, but sounds like it.

>Left Arm (Primary): GUARDIAN [Plasma]: DR 10-2, AMMO 5

>>18777501
Additional pylons, duh.

>>18777505
so what about sweet and sour pork? Nothing special about it. Certainly nothing to derail a thread over...

>>18777515
It's for tossers.

>>18777501
look like two posts up, i already voted for additional data, clearly the next step was additional pylons

>>18777764
This is AC quest, we're supposed to get obsessively paranoid about the meaning of dice rolls. He rolled a 12 and an 83, WHAT DOES IT MEAN!?!?!?

>>18777772
A failure and a crit.

>>18777778
But for who, FOR WHO??? It could be us or it could be flaming ball of rape. Who knows?

>>18777764
That's like saying all Shinji did in EoE was fail his Will Save.

>>18777805
I think Elsie wnet second got a crit and now the guy has no head.

>>18777796
"It's been twenty-one minutes!

>>18777802
>>18777796

>Heh

You hear a loud crack as Elsie lets off a shot.

After a moment, you hear Elsie confirm she hit.

The core was apparently flying, and after Elsie took it's arm off at the shoulder, it went crashing down t the Earth, and then you hear the screaming start...

>>18777816
Oh shit. Boost over there and force that fucker away from the noncoms!

>>18777816
OH GOD THE SCREAMING

IT WONT STOP

>>18777816

rolled 23, 39 = 62

>>18777816

A scream of denial, of Rage and pain, as the enemy core begins to get back on his feet, clearly in pain.

You get a good look at it for the first time.

You feel it focus on you, being the closest target. You're reminded of the battle with Nine-ball in Hope, but while that was a focused, eerily calm presence... this feels like a maddened beast. Like a rabid dog lashing out for something to kill.

But he's so focused on you, he never sees Dave approaching from the side.

>>18777837
Is Holy Shit Dave the proper response at this point?

rolled 3, 7, 6, 4 = 20

>One bonus degree. Make it count Dave.

rolled 45 = 45

>>18777840

>>18777842
>>18777840

The blow decapitates the core, and Dave leaps back, expecting that it would be an easy kill.

But that's when the thing goes fucking berserk.

Ari managed to keep calm, tell the retrieval team to run when Elsie first brought it out of the sky. Now you don't have to worry about them, just the maddened monstrosity in front of you. Berlioz says he and his partner are only a minute out, but you aren't sure you'll survive that long.

It stops suddenly, mid spasm, and points it's remaining arm directly at you, and you see a burst of plasma start to build...

>You have one Fate Point remaining.

You boost to the left without even touching the controls, and watch as the blast goes right past you. It turns the sand to glass, even in places where the main part of the beam was a good 20 feet away.

"Berlioz, what was that? It just shot a giant fucking laser-"

"They finished the fucking particle cannon?! THAT'S something they should have told me BEFORE I came out here. hang on kid, i'm coming."

You see the potential that thing has. you see it jerking, almost sniffing the air for you. Or one of your friends...

The civies are safe, you could protect them, or you could take this chance before it disappears.

He's got severe animal instincts up in this, we try to just keep him busy we'll eventually slip up and end up with a particle cannon in the face.

However if we get the chance to damage some of his systems and he just happens to die, oh well

End him, the more chance he has to use that thing the more chance of him hurting or killing someone. A chance I'm not taking.

>>18777961
>>18777974
In that case I'm switching to end this guy now.

"Negative, I'm killing this bastard now."

The line is silent for a moment. "Good luck kid." Berlioz finally says over the line.

You see it begin to slowly turn to regard you. It seems confused. Why aren't you dead? Why are you fighting back? You're PREY not HUNTER. Rabbits don't kill wolves.

You begin the assault.

[ ] Strafing run, see if you can weaken it more.

Go for the throat. Take his face.

[X] Go for the throat, and kill it.

Its confused and just fired don't let it get its rhythm back, avoid that cannon and get in close.

>>18778017
[X] Go for the face, and take it.

>>18778017
Strafing run, it's probably better able to retaliate at closer ranges where it can sense us better.

Use our high mobility and our stability while boosting to keep our distance and cause more damage before we get close to it.

Oh yeah, finish him, go in for the quick kill.

>>18778017
Strafing runs involve running, and avoidance, like prey. We are not prey. Also that would be time consuming. Commence attacks for the jugular.
CAn we have Elsie take some pot shots at him while he is standing perfectly still? that would be nice.

>I'm beginning to wonder if I'm just not MEANT to be on this side of the GM's screen.

>These are not rolls conductive to a fun, balanced game.

>These are rolls that demand BLOOD.

>>18778129
We are Alexandra Raston? And we begin our journey?

rolled 13 = 13

>>18778129
This is why we can't have nice things.

>>18778129
I suggest we just use >>18778126

>>18778142
>13
FFS

>>18778147
Now they're taunting us.

>>18778129

Why do /tg/ dice hate me?
WHY?!

rolled 63 = 63

>Well, the answer is clear guys, the dice gods love me more than you.

>I can only bend the rues so much before they stop being RULES.

Your opponent boosts to one side, you knee coming within inches of his face before he does so. You see what Berlioz meant by the 'wall of fire'. He pivots and brings the edge of that nasty looking gun down in a vicious ark.

>Beat my roll.

perhaps we simply need an image of motivation.

rolled 73 = 73

>>18778172
Dice?

rolled 92 = 92

>>18778172

rolled 51 = 51

>>18778172

>>18778176

Kid, I am dissapoint.

rolled 11, 2 = 13

It collides with your Core.

HARD.

Soooo....

Looks like that's it for this quest.

>>18778176
>>18778175
>>18778179
God damn it dice, we had a 76% chance of succeeding that and you still failed us.

I leave the room for like 5minutes what the fuck guys

rolled 8 = 8

>>18778206

>And now hit location....

It occurs to me that we're not actually getting paid very well for this job anyway. They withheld enough information initially to make it unclear what exactly we would be up against so that they could skimp on pay.

>>18778212
Thats our missle pod isn't it? Fuck yes safe!

rolled 78 = 78

>>18778206
>>18778212
I cant help but wonder, WHAT THE HELL IS THE REST OF THE SQUAD DOING? Did they all suddenly find an interesting bit of scenery to look at? This is supposed to be a 4 on 1, right?

>>18778212

Warnings blare across the screen, looks like that last blow put a hair-line crack in the reactor core. You mentally over-write the safety locks, and engage the reserve coolant. You've bought time, but you're going to have to end this fast.

>You have three combat rounds.
>YOUR MOVE:

[ ] Guns, strafe.
[ ] Laser blade.
[ ] SHOOT. EVERYTHING.

rolled 37 = 37

>>18778234
[x] RIP OFF HIS FACE

>>18778234
Shoot Everything. All the missiles, both guns. We roll enough dice we might hit the blinded and crippled mech.

>>18778230
Well, we're in melee range, which is why I assume that they aren't helping.
Plus, this is actually happening really quickly.

>>18778230

>Everything in the last couple of posts happened in just under a second. Elsie's repositioning from her last shoot, Lawrence and Mooch are still inbound, and Dave just dodged a giant laser and is looking for an opening.

>>18778234

Laser Blade.

Into his cockpit.

>[x] SHOOT. EVERYTHING.
ARUFAAAAAAAAA!
SUTURAIKUUUUUU!

>>18778234
[ ] SHOOT. EVERYTHING,
one sec i need to find a suitable pic

[X] SHOOT. EVERYTHING

Normally not a fan of shooting everything at once but if hes that fast we might need to fill the air to ensure the kill.

>>18778234
[X] LASER BLADE

Always and forever.

>>18778234
laser blade

>>18778234
God damnit, sword him! If we cut him in half that counts a minimal damage because both halves are mostly intact right?

>>18778234
Shoot everything. Everything.

>>18778234

>Meanwhile....

You are Ari Raston, and you should be out there.

You're in here, because you aren't ready. Because you aren't experienced. But you could have ended this before it began. You have a cannon bigger than his even.

And now your brother's closing in.

And now he misses the monstrous core by inches.

And now he takes a savage blow to the back.

And now.... his core shutdown safety over-rode itself and his synch score jumped 30 points. What the HELL?

>>18778277
Holy Shit, our synch is in the low 80s? Jeesus christ.
