Savage Worlds Ruleset for Fantasy Grounds II
(c) 2009 Pinnacle Entertainment Group.
GM: Okay, so here we go.
Colwyn O'Reilly: I attack the cactus with the fluffernutter gun
Ranger Richard: hello all much better!
The French Legionnaires look at the squad quizzically for a minute, then the distinctive rattle of machine gun fire echoes through the valley. Samson yells for everyone to take cover. People dive for cover as mortar shells explode overhead.
Colwyn O'Reilly: overhead? in the trees?
Colwyn O'Reilly: raining shrapnel = bad
Ranger Richard: take cover
GM: Yep, so lots of raining shrapnel
When the smoke clears, the Legionnaires are nowhere to be seen.
Tyran Drenski dives down but keeps an eye on the french men.
Tyran Drenski: Were did the french go??
Colwyn O'Reilly: Anyone hit?
Withers: Okay, well now that the strange French guys are missing, let's get out of here. Colwyn can we move the injured from the helicopter?
Rooky: The Frogs are missing!
Tyran Drenski: I don't think so let me check...rover.... our little buddy
Waddles: Maybe we can find tadpoles somewhere.
Colwyn O'Reilly: how about to the bird sarge?
Tyran Drenski: Frog??
GM: The helicopter that was shot down and is a smoking ruin?
Colwyn O'Reilly: oh right, that one
Colwyn O'Reilly heads over to helicopter
Tyran Drenski: Ah doesn't look like we're going anywere..
Tyran Drenski: if that shrapnel fallls again the helicopter will end up like that one.
Tyran Drenski: We better load quickly
Withers: Well, we need to fall back towards the firebase and out of range of the NVA mortars. So if we can move the injured let's do that.
Hogpile: Right, packing up and moving out.
Ranger Richard: ok
Tyran Drenski: Hooah
Tyran Drenski loads what he can carry and follows Withers
[w] -> Colwyn O'Reilly: Healing check
Ranger Richard: same
Colwyn O'Reilly: Healing {+2 Healer} [1d6+2 = 7]
Nessie (Tyran Drenski): random heal..... bum bum
In Colwyn's expert medical opinion, the wounded can be moved. A couple stretchers are rigged up and the squad falls back towards the Firebase.
Tyran Drenski helps where he can.
[w] -> Tyran Drenski: Jury-rig check with Repair using McGyver edge? :)
Evidently the NVA mortars were at long range, because the incoming shells are no longer a threat after about fifty feet.
Tyran Drenski: Repair [Trait roll was a natural 1] [1d6 = 2]
Nessie (Tyran Drenski): FAIL!!!
GM: Tyran attempts to construct really awesome stretchers from the wreckage of the helicopter, but does not have enough time to pull off the project.
Tyran Drenski: I was almost done serg...we don't need to go yet...
Tyran Drenski: it would have been mythical
Colwyn O'Reilly: legendary drenski, legendary
About thirty minutes later, the squad comes into contact with the platoon sent as reinforcements. At that point the rest of the trip back to base is uneventful.
2nd Lt. Harbin: Withers, good to see that you and your squad made it back.
Withers: Thank you sir.
Tyran Drenski grunts with the heavy load, his invention would have been self propelling all terrain vehicle
2nd Lt. Harbin: Grab some chow and sack in. Tomorrow some reinforcements are coming in and we are going to recon in force this area.
Withers: Yes sir.
Ranger Richard: can we resupply ammo
Withers: (turns to squad) You heard the man, grab some grub, restock on ammo, and sack out.
Withers: (smiles at Richard for being a forward thinker)
Ranger Richard: sounds like a good plan
Tyran Drenski runs toward the grub
Asher (Colwyn O'Reilly): oh, we'll move one unit in all three flanks!
Ranger Richard: cleans weapons
Colwyn O'Reilly: thank you sir
Tyran Drenski grubs, stocks, showers, changes, sleeps...ahh the life
Colwyn O'Reilly heads to eat, recons additional medkits, downloads pron on his iphone while waiting for the ridiculously slow army resupply system after filling out forms in quadricate three times
GM: Umm..only problem is there are no showers and you are only changing if you brought a new change of clothes.
Asher (Colwyn O'Reilly): i think i made up a new word: quadricate
Tyran Drenski dreams of showering and changes...
Colwyn O'Reilly see if tyran can modify his colt clip to hold 9 rounds
Nessie (Tyran Drenski): ps they had washclothes and water....that is a shower darn it
Ranger Richard: pron is new word too
Asher (Colwyn O'Reilly): it's in the same class as "pwn"
Tyran Drenski: Repair [Trait roll was a natural 1] [1d6 = 8]
Ranger Richard: pours water over Tyran to make shower
Tyran Drenski: soo can it hold 9 rounds now?
GM: Tyran modifies Colwyn's clip to hold 9 rounds of ammo.
Nessie (Tyran Drenski): i should start an enterprise...
Colwyn O'Reilly: good job drenski
Becker: Oooh...sign me up for some of that.
Ranger Richard: me too
Nessie (Tyran Drenski): Get's his patent for the 9 round clip sent in
Colwyn O'Reilly: you should charge... them though, not me
Colwyn O'Reilly: it was my idea, you should give me a percentage
Tyran Drenski: if has the supplies (old helicopter) makes as many as he can
GM: Roll a couple repair checks
Tyran Drenski: Repair [1d6 = 8]
Tyran Drenski: Repair [1d6 = 8]
Tyran Drenski: Repair [Trait roll was a natural 1] [1d6 = 5]
Tyran Drenski: Repair [1d6 = 5]
Tyran Drenski: Repair [Trait roll was a natural 1] [1d6 = 5]
Tyran Drenski: Repair [1d6 = 5]
Tyran Drenski: Repair [1d6 = 5]
TADM: Today is brought to us by the number "5" :)
Tyran Drenski: any one else??
Colwyn O'Reilly: I'll assume that covers all carried clips
Ranger Richard: Thanks Tyran
Nessie (Tyran Drenski): no kidding
Tyran Drenski: No prob guys... kill some vc in my honor
Colwyn O'Reilly: after the power shown by airman phoenix's 1911, I may not use my M1 anymore
Rooky: Awesome work Tyran.
Ranger Richard: hey can you modify my m16 to shoot 3 round burst?
Tyran Drenski: ahhh ask the GM
TADM: Wow, that is almost Benny worthy for asking the question.
Nessie (Tyran Drenski): do you want me to try richard??
GM: But it turns out to be technically impossible with the given tools...but Drenski has a few ideas next time you are not at a Firebase in the DMZ.
Tyran Drenski: I think i have a career in weapon building and three round burst sounds good
Hogpile: I concur Drenski. If you need a heavy lifter to lug things around in the warehouse give me a call.
Ranger Richard ([): ] [ ]
Tyran Drenski: Will do
Ranger Richard: its 2 kids on my lap watching:)
Nessie (Tyran Drenski): lol how cute
Asher (Colwyn O'Reilly): ah
The night passes uneventfully for the squad. The distant thump of mortars mingled in with the rattle of guns and rockets from airplanes as the NVA are driven back does not make it quiet, but at least painless for the group.
Ranger Richard: trying to ingrain gaming into them, lol
TADM: I am 100% in favor of that behavior.
Nessie (Tyran Drenski): AWESOME!!!
Asher (Colwyn O'Reilly): gaming through osmosis!
TADM: I tried that with my cat, but she tends to just roll around on the game board and knock pieces everywhere.
Ranger Richard: doesnt sound much different than my little girl!
TADM: :D
Nessie (Tyran Drenski): lol our cats just sleep on our computers
Asher (Colwyn O'Reilly): speak of the devil
Nessie (Tyran Drenski): Tux just joined me...
TADM: Yay!
Tyran Drenski: So serg what is today's objective?
GM: Anyway, back to the story at hand...
The next morning dozens of helicopters come in. They ferry in supplies, troops, and an oddly large number of civilians.
Tyran Drenski: Hey serg...what is with the civie??? umm do they relise this is a war zone????
After seeing the first few come in, you get the feeling that the civilians all fall into the "college professors, doctoral students, and/or possibly hippies."
Withers: Good question Drenski.
Colwyn O'Reilly: civs? i thought we were supposed to avoid killing civilians sarge
[w] Colwyn O'Reilly -> Tyran Drenski: sacrifices
Tyran Drenski: Sacrifices???
Samson: Maybe it is a plan to kill off a few undesirables?
Ranger Richard: my thoughts exactly white aper food
Samson: Like anyone from Stanford or MIT.
Tyran Drenski: or gookzillas!!
Hogpile: Yeah, but I can guarantee our day just got a lot worse. (he points at some people getting off a chopper, you recognize Doctor Franz Eichmann, Major Blankname, and Christy Thompson)
Tyran Drenski: food that is... so when are they leaving and how can we expidite?
Samson: It's an unholy triumvirate!
Asher (Colwyn O'Reilly): today is dec 17th?
TADM: Today is Dec 17th.
Tyran Drenski: Kill us not the moose is loose on the field
Colwyn O'Reilly: I think the demons of hell just attacks the moons of mars...
Tyran Drenski: did they bring us an xmas gift?
Colwyn O'Reilly: they are your gift, drenski
Colwyn O'Reilly: bwahahahahaha!
Withers is called over to a command briefing. About fifteen minutes later he comes back, his normally impassive face registering annoyance.
Colwyn O'Reilly looks attentive
Tyran Drenski: All i should say is the general should do some guard duty so we can sleep a little and be ready for our next engagment
Tyran Drenski: i mean the major
Withers: Okay, here is the op today. We are going to recon the area, evidently we are looking for a cave complex of some type.
Nessie (Tyran Drenski): sleep deprived
Colwyn O'Reilly points at Major Blankname's head
Colwyn O'Reilly: found it
Tyran Drenski: more hunting for the dok?
Withers: The cave complex is supposedly what the NVA are looking for, so we expect heavy resistance pretty much everywhere.
Tyran Drenski: suprized?? I think not
Colwyn O'Reilly considers extra medkits today
Withers: As to what is in the cave complex, what we need it for, and what to do with it, other than radioing in our position, is classified. As in, evidently I don't need to know.
Tyran Drenski: considers draging the dokor in for cover and ape food
Colwyn O'Reilly: how long are we going to be out sarge?
Ranger Richard: [1d4 = 2]
Nessie (Tyran Drenski): 2????
Asher (Colwyn O'Reilly): 2 days? we're really randomizing this encounter
Nessie (Tyran Drenski): 2 minutes before we kill the doktor?
Nessie (Tyran Drenski): 2 days of crepes?
Withers: Today. Given the density of the foliage, we are going to start nearby and work our way out. So we return tonight, restock as necessary, then head out again in the morning, moving through the scouted area and into new areas.
Withers: So pack ammo and one day of rations, just in case.
Ranger Richard: are we going as a squad?
Tyran Drenski: Why do I have this feeling we are going to find something that the doktorstein and Mr Black hide don't need to have there hands on (whispers)
Tyran Drenski: hooah serg
Withers: Well, I have good news and bad news about that. The good news is that Drenski, Richard, O'Reilly, Samson, Hogpile, Rooky, Waddles, Becker, and I are heading out. We might get a few helpers as other squads finish their sweeps.
Withers: The bad news is that evidently whatever we are looking for is not classified beyond the level of the eggheads walking around.
Withers: So yes, you guessed it, we get to have some extra special helpers with us today.
Samson: Can I shoot them?
Withers: Tempting.
Tyran Drenski wonders if he can teach rocky to kill the major and the doktor in there sleep.?
Colwyn O'Reilly: you really "shouldn't"
Tyran Drenski: eat 'em
Hogpile: Anyone want to bet we get the reporter and Herr Doktor.
Tyran Drenski: You know it
Rooky: Which way are you betting? Because I'm not losing money on this one.
Withers: Yeah, it would be a bad bet, because those are the ones who are coming with us.
Hogpile: Well, maybe the Marine, airman Phoenix, Dugan, and those other schlubs can give us money for tedious babysitting.
Colwyn O'Reilly: I think corp has the best idea there
Tyran Drenski: no kidding where are those schmucks are going...take me with you
GM: They are going where there is no experience and they all end up with a level of Fatigue anyway.
Dr. Franz Eichmann: Achtung, guten morgen!
Dr. Franz Eichmann: Are you all ready to set out? Today will be a fascinating day I am sure.
Withers: Yes Doctor. Ready to head out when you are.
GM: Notice checks
Tyran Drenski: Doktor perform any hidous experiments lately
Ranger Richard: Notice [1d8 = 3]
Colwyn O'Reilly: Notice [1d6 = 2]
Tyran Drenski: Notice (Good) [1d6 = 8]
Nessie (Tyran Drenski): I know he is a bad man
Ranger Richard: see how this day will start
Colwyn O'Reilly: i was distracted by the tight pants Thompson is apparently wearing
Nessie (Tyran Drenski): it's 8 and 5 for me today
GM: She is indeed wearing tight pants, which is evidently a distraction to Richard and O'Reilly.
Colwyn O'Reilly: haven't had any for a while now...
Nessie (Tyran Drenski): tyran is to invovled with hating the doktor
[w] -> Tyran Drenski: Christy is carrying what looks like a very large and bulky purse. You have no idea how she will possibly wander through the jungle lugging such a thing.
Waddles: Oh yay! Dugan is coming with us!
Tyran Drenski: Ms Thompson why are you carrying such a large purse in the middle of the war zone in a jungle??
Samson: And just when I thought I was going to have a good day.
Ranger Richard: cool
Tyran Drenski invisions a body in her bag
Christy Thompson: Well, you know, those things a woman needs. Like a change of clothes, steno pads, maxipads, things like that.
Tyran Drenski: a body
Colwyn O'Reilly: tape recorders?
Rooky: I vote TMI.
Christy Thompson: Yeah, tape recorders too, cameras. I like to be prepared.
Waddles: Can I carry it? I like to carry things!
Christy Thompson: No, I'm good thanks. If I need you to hold it I will let you know.
Waddles: Okay
Tyran Drenski: prepared for the jungle is water and extra sock... not cameras
Tyran Drenski hopes she gets hit by an RPG
Withers: Ready doctor?
Dr. Franz Eichmann: Ja mein comrade.
Tyran Drenski as soon as he heard the evil doktor was coming her tucked rocky very far into his bag
The squad sets out. The weather is clear and sunny, which also makes it very hot and humid.
Colwyn O'Reilly: it would actually probably be bad if you need maxipads ms thompson
Colwyn O'Reilly: some of the critters out here may attack you
Tyran Drenski applies sunscreen and bug spray'
Colwyn O'Reilly: maybe you should stay behind if that's the case
Colwyn O'Reilly: i'd hate to see you mauled by monkeys
Tyran Drenski: or apes
Colwyn O'Reilly looks quizzically at Drenski
Christy Thompson: I will bear that in mind, but I will be fine, thank you Private.
Colwyn O'Reilly: yeah, or apes...
Tyran Drenski: spiders, crows, tigers, lizards
Colwyn O'Reilly: okay, but I'm not wiping tiger urine or monkey poo off of you
Christy Thompson: That's what my 100 wet naps are for.
Nessie (Tyran Drenski): LOLOLOL
Ranger Richard: ewwww
Tyran Drenski: you should use honey as bug spray is works wonders out here
Tyran Drenski looking at the reporter with a huge smile
Ranger Richard: Here try some of this agent orange stuff it does wonders for keeping bugs off
Colwyn O'Reilly: and poison ivy
The squad, along with Christy Thompson and Doctor Eichmann, head off through the jungle. You carefully search the area for a couple hours, looking for cave entrances, NVA, or anything more peculiar than normal.
Christy Thompson: It is fantastically hot here. It is amazing that humans can even live in this climate.
Colwyn O'Reilly: not much hotter than nawlins
Colwyn O'Reilly: just smellier
Rooky: You could stay back at the air conditioned command bunker.
Tyran Drenski: yeah and had some wine
Dugan: Really? should I be feelin' sick?
Waddles: Ooh, there was one day, I stuck my hand in the oven, that was way hotter than this.
Tyran Drenski: no dugan just the woman is sick
Samson: (eyes twitch)
Dugan: I did that once... we were playing hide an' seek...
Tyran Drenski: grabs samsons arm and turns him away from waddles and starts talking demo
Dugan: well you see now that's a real interesting story when you get right down to it.
Samson: NO MERCY!
Dugan: my da' tol' me he knew a really good place to hide
Dugan: oh.. sorry Samson
Samson: (Kitty hit the hotkey for that....disregard)
Dugan: zipper
Tyran Drenski grabs Samsom
Dhu (Dugan): nice kitty
Tyran Drenski: Doc um my doc...diazpam? Haldol?
Tyran Drenski: Versed??
Dugan: versed who? is there a fight goin on?
Dr. Franz Eichmann: For who?
Dugan: Me and Waddles could be team captains if you want to pick sides
Colwyn O'Reilly: everyone... we're equal opportunity here
Nessie (Tyran Drenski): MEDS (diapam= valum for calming, haldol= for fighting pyschs and Versed = for get everything drug used in surgeries you are a awake for
The squad approaches a hill marked on the map as "616." It is a large stony outcropping.
Colwyn O'Reilly: except the vc, they just get 'nades and bullets
GM: Notice checks.
Asher (Colwyn O'Reilly): that sounds ominous
Dugan: how is a hill marked?

Dugan: duck behind a tree
GM: Curse that man and his danger sense rolls.
Dugan: ducks himself behind a tree
Colwyn O'Reilly goes prone
TADM:
Samson: Hey!
Tyran Drenski wonders if he works for the VC he always knows...

[w] Dugan: thanks boss
Tyran Drenski: Serg radio patched bet your happy I'm handy

Colwyn O'Reilly: we should at least move him up to the entrance of the cave... and rooky too
Waddles: I'll carry Rooky. I like to carry.
Tyran Drenski: Can we move to the top of the hill and then i can make an antennia
Colwyn O'Reilly: alright waddles...
Tyran Drenski: doktor into voodoo??
Withers: Okay, Hogpile, you and Samson go around that side of the hill and set up above the cave. Dugan, you, Richard, and I will cover the front. Drenski, keep fiddling with the radio. O'Reilly and Waddles, take care of Becker and Rooky.
Hogpile: Hooah.
Tyran Drenski: hooah
Tyran Drenski: Repair [1d6 = 14]
Tyran Drenski: fixed it???
GM: It is working fine, you are just getting no sound at all now.
Christy Thompson: I'm going to stay back out of the way and take some pictures.
Colwyn O'Reilly: I'm not sure command wants you to do that
[w] Tyran Drenski: what could i roll to fix the jam??
Colwyn O'Reilly monitors becker
Dr. Franz Eichmann: Most interesting, this cave was definitely carved by hand. Look at the glyphs along the sides.
Dugan: smiles for the camera, "hi ma"
[w] -> Tyran Drenski: You cannot fix the jam, for reasons that will be abundantly clear in a little bit.
[w] Tyran Drenski: okay....i have the need to fix...wawawawa
Withers: So let me guess Doc, this is the cave we are looking for, and we cannot call in help?
Dr. Franz Eichmann: Definitely.
Tyran Drenski: Nothing serg i have tried everything
Tyran Drenski: should we go into the cave and hit out a minute?
Colwyn O'Reilly: there are VC in the cave too
Dr. Franz Eichmann: This is an Imperial Champa sacrificial cave. It is thought that they were all destroyed.
Dugan: you want me to try? I haven't tried yet... and you said you'd tried everything... but if I haven't tried yet, then that means that you haven't tried everything... so there must be something else you can do
Samson: So this means I can fire a grenade into it, right?
Dr. Franz Eichmann: NO!
Tyran Drenski: Champa!?
Samson: (fires M79 into cave) Whoops.
Tyran Drenski remembers hearing that word before
Colwyn O'Reilly is glad he's down by the tree
Tyran Drenski wonders if this is were rocky is from and fears for his little god
Dugan: can we go inside? i bet its dark in there... dark like an oven
Tyran Drenski: doktor do you know some of that language...champa that is....
The grenade sails into the cave and explodes very impressively. A gust of hot wind blows out of the cave. Then an odd white light appears at the back. A strange snake-like apparition slithers out of the cave and rears up, its black eyes surveying everyone in the area.
Dugan: do you think its hotter in there than it is out here?
GM: Guts checks
Tyran Drenski: Guts [1d4 = 3]
Dugan: Guts [1d4 = 7]
Colwyn O'Reilly: Guts [1d6 = 5]
Ranger Richard: Guts [Trait roll was a natural 1] [1d6 = 2]
Christy Thompson: (voluntarily fails, but does not wet herself)
Ranger Richard is using a benny
Colwyn O'Reilly is paying attention to becker
Ranger Richard: Guts [1d6 = 9]
Tyran Drenski is using a benny
Tyran Drenski: Guts [1d6 = 3]
Nessie (Tyran Drenski): DAMN!!! you 3
Ranger Richard: I hope this isnat a Champa
The snake hovers for a second, then descends on a target.
Dhu (Dugan): do it again! what's the worst that could happen?
GM: D12 [1d12 = 11]
Dugan: pretty snake
Dugan: nice snake
Dr. Franz Eichmann: Spirit [1d6 = 3]
Dr. Franz Eichmann is using a benny
Ranger Richard: how big is this thing?
Dr. Franz Eichmann: Spirit [1d10 = 3]
Dr. Franz Eichmann is using a benny
Tyran Drenski is using a benny
Dr. Franz Eichmann: Spirit [1d10 = 3]
Tyran Drenski: Guts [1d4 = 5]
Nessie (Tyran Drenski): pass thanks dhu
GM: Hmm...
GM: This is bad.
Dhu (Dugan): np
Ranger Richard: uh oh
Dhu (Dugan): the dr is dead
Tyran Drenski: uh oh
TADM: Or, as Nessie said, "DAMN YOU 3."
Ranger Richard: cristy is dead
Nessie (Tyran Drenski): dr's having the same pob huh
Dhu (Dugan): samson is dead?
Ranger Richard: somebody crapped there pants?
Dhu (Dugan): the snake is dead
Nessie (Tyran Drenski): i am with richard on the dr is crapping his pants
Dhu (Dugan): i'm on the edge of my seat here
Tyran Drenski: pause for effect
Ranger Richard: game over were all dead as snake explodes in toxic gooo
Dhu (Dugan): the silence is palpable
Colwyn O'Reilly is wondering why everyone is screaming
Colwyn O'Reilly palpates the silence
The snake, which towers about fifteen feet off the ground, drops onto Doctor Eichmann and clamps its jaws around him. He screams in terror. The snake then recoils and vanishes back into the cave.
Ranger Richard: AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Dhu (Dugan): thmp thmp
Ranger Richard: did he draw any blood? Or did drs blood scare him off?
Dhu (Dugan): ok, i'm confused... did the snake recoil after trying to swallow the dr?
Tyran Drenski debates wether going into the cave to watch the dr die will be fun or dangerous
Ranger Richard: oh is snake taking dr with him?
As the snake revoils, Doctor Eichmann seems to age about five hundred years instantly, crumbling into dust.
Ranger Richard: Cristy get some photos of that!
TADM: In other words, "He choose poorly."
Dugan: wow .. that was cool!
Ranger Richard: oh my I think retreat is in order!!!!
Tyran Drenski backs away slowly....
GM: Guts checks.
Ranger Richard: Guts [1d6 = 7]
Tyran Drenski: Guts [1d4 = 2]
Dugan: Guts [Trait roll was a natural 1] [1d6 = 5]
Nessie (Tyran Drenski): out of benny...i vomit
Ranger Richard: sometimes watching Cristy's pants can be good thing!
Dugan: good one Samson
TADM: No, you just lose 2 points of Sanity. If Colwyn failed he would lose 4.
Dugan: you killed herr doktor
Ranger Richard: If I live I can now produce a good B movie after my tour!
Samson: Meh, win some, lose some.
Nessie (Tyran Drenski): and that is abnormal for tyran how?
Withers: Back up! Everyone get away from the cave.
Ranger Richard: no problem sarge, double timing!!!
Colwyn O'Reilly: Sarge? what's going on? where is the doktor?
Tyran Drenski: No prob
There is a rattle of gun fire from the cave as the VC push forward.
Ranger Richard: Do we want some dr dust to bring back in case he regenerates?
Colwyn O'Reilly covers squad's retreat
Tyran Drenski: "itiramam" "piko"
Colwyn O'Reilly: help me becker... shot anything that comes out of the cave
Becker: Got it.
Dugan: crouches and takes aim at the cave entrance
Jade Golem: Itiashi, miko miko!
Tyran Drenski prone is good
Ranger Richard: Hey who wants to go and investigate inside cave?
Samson: (points at Dugan)
Dugan: oh.. i think you pissed off the little guy
Ranger Richard: oh wait we dont have clearance to do that darn!
The little jade statue runs over and stabs Christy Thompson in the foot.
Colwyn O'Reilly: could've used a trip mine at the entrance there Drenski
Christy Thompson: OUCH
Tyran Drenski wonders if i little man to protect me i might.....
Colwyn O'Reilly begins laughing
Tyran Drenski: mataka-hao
Waddles: What is that thing, it is so cool. Is it a wind-up toy?
Becker: Cool!
Ranger Richard: say it again!
Tyran Drenski runs gets his statue and throws it in his bag
Dugan: it's god ... pay homage to your better
Tyran Drenski: toy sorry
Christy Thompson picks up the statue as it stops moving and looks at it curiously.
Dugan: peers toward the opening, gun raised
Then she hands it back to Tyran.
Withers: Well, they don't seem to be coming out.
Tyran Drenski puts it in his bag
Colwyn O'Reilly: well... we should probably clear it... how's the radio?
Dugan: order's sarg?
Withers: Still down.
Withers: Any ideas?
Tyran Drenski smirks after Rocky is safe in his bag...it does know evil
Colwyn O'Reilly: either setup a perimeter and have a couple people hump it to where the radio works and call in... or clear the cave and do that anyway
Dhu (Dugan): lol, for a second there, I thought you said Rooky
Asher (Colwyn O'Reilly): the statues name is rocky... i thought that too at first
Dugan: walk single file into the cave, with our guns unloaded & slung over our shoulders, to show that we mean no harm?
Tyran Drenski has been awarded a benny
Colwyn O'Reilly: why don't we just wave our tighty whities as peace flags Dugan?
TADM: Well okay, so the Doctor was NOT supposed to die until much later in the campaign, so now I am going to really wing it.
TADM: And Nessie gets a benny for suggesting a good idea.
Colwyn O'Reilly: except they're tighty brownies in some cases
Nessie (Tyran Drenski): dok has an evil twin?
Dhu (Dugan): Christy was his protoge?
Ranger Richard: Im fine with a TADM mistake and it was actually Cristy that baught it
Nessie (Tyran Drenski): she is his daughter and going to complete his evil work
TADM: No, far worse than that. And Dugan is closest to the answer.
Christy sets down her giant oversized purse and flips it open.
Nessie (Tyran Drenski): that is why my statue attacked her
Dhu (Dugan): glad i'm not standing next to her
Christy Thompson: Withers, I need operational control.
Withers: Uh, what?
Tyran Drenski AHHHHHHHHHHHHH NOOOOOOO
She hands him an ID card. Then she starts rifling through her purse.
Tyran Drenski: we are all going to die
Colwyn O'Reilly: mutiny?
Tyran Drenski: I'm down
Withers: Umm...yes ma'am, errr...Lieutenant...errr..ma'am.
Tyran Drenski feels very very very very very very sick
Ranger Richard: its a fake throw her in the cave
Colwyn O'Reilly: I'm pretty sure something like this is why my father left the military
Dugan: feed her to the snake
She pulls out 10 pairs of ear muffs and hands them to Withers.
Tyran Drenski: samson fire into the cave...
Christy Thompson: These will block all sound outside the range of the human voice, you will need them. Hand them out.
Ranger Richard: for what?
Samson: (reloads to fire into cave again)
Tyran Drenski takes his set and looks repulsed
Christy Thompson: Well, unless you want to go deaf from firing automatic weapons in an enclosed space put them on. Or whatever takes your fancy.
Waddles: Can I get the pink ones?
Nessie (Tyran Drenski): are they the fuzy pink ones?
Ranger Richard: oh so your not as dumb as you look
Colwyn O'Reilly slings his rifle and unholsters his sidearm
Dugan: I'll take the green ones ... they go with my natural skin tone
Christy Thompson: Generally no.
Colwyn O'Reilly gets out his flashlight
Colwyn O'Reilly: sarge... are we seriously listening to her?
Ranger Richard: oh good I feel better about hearing you take control then.
Ranger Richard: So what is the almighty plan?
Tyran Drenski follows colwyns lead..and puts on his brown ear muffs
She gets out two bricks of C4 and hands one to Drenski and one to Samson.
Nessie (Tyran Drenski): woot she is a friend now
Dugan: dons his green ear muffs ...
Ranger Richard: okay she is pretty cool in tight pants and carrying c4
Hogpile: I don't know about you guys, but any woman that brings ten pounds of C4 into the jungle in a purse is HAWT.
Dugan: where's mine?
Ranger Richard: earmuffs on
Dugan: do I get some C4?
Tyran Drenski: no dugan you'll drop it
She digs around for a few minutes and hands Dugan an M1 clip. The bullets are colored bright red.
Colwyn O'Reilly: and somehow blow us up in the process
Tyran Drenski: and it comes in putty for you might kill your self making figures with it
Christy Thompson: Switch to that clip when I tell you.
Dugan: ooo
Ranger Richard: any more red clips for m16?
Samson: Hot dawg! It's like Christmas.
Ranger Richard: wow I feel left out!
Colwyn O'Reilly: it's okay, so do i
Tyran Drenski: it that a bag of holding???
Dugan: got any green bullets? I like green bullets because its the same color as blood
Nessie (Tyran Drenski): dugan has more than 2 point off his sanity
Christy Thompson: Richard, take a couple grenades. Colwyn, these syringes, only jab them in someone who is about dead.
Colwyn O'Reilly: yes ma'am
Colwyn O'Reilly blinks
Ranger Richard: green blood?
Withers: Okay, so lots of presents and the purse is almost empty. So what is the plan?
Tyran Drenski kneels and starts praying.
Colwyn O'Reilly: would've been handy a minute ago when rooky was dying... ma'am
Ranger Richard: Is this the holy hand grenade of antiocH???
Tyran Drenski: Oh rocky keep me safe from the snake and rambo girl
Christy Thompson: Well, the plan WAS for us to find the cave. The Nazi and I would blow it up. Things changed obviously when the Nazi was killed.
Ranger Richard: can you tell us who you are with?
Ranger Richard: ummm how far in do we have to go to blow it up?
Dugan: for a second there, I thought you were refering to Samson as the Nazi
Tyran Drenski i promise to let you kill 10 vc for my sins
Tyran Drenski still praying
Christy Thompson: Yeah well, for the record me handing out toys to you all just put you in the classification of "knows too much to continue living without working for us" so you will excuse me if I avoided tipping my hand before now.
Tyran Drenski: wow testy now, kinda likey you more as a ditz
Dugan: Can we just call you Lieutenant Dan? Every Lieutenant I've ever known was Lieutenant Dan, and that just rolls right off the tongue. If it's not ok, then I apologize now, if I were to slip in the future.
Christy Thompson: Well, we need to go to the back of the cave....
Colwyn O'Reilly: if you get shot in the buttocks dugan, I'm writing a movie about you
Colwyn O'Reilly: with chocolates
Dugan: Is there another entrance behind it?
Colwyn O'Reilly: doubt it
Dhu (Dugan): i tickle myself
Tyran Drenski: yeah meeting death on yet another weird accurance in the jungle...don't remeber this in my contract
Christy Thompson: So we need to get into the cave and past the Guardian. I only have one good idea for that.
Dugan: you are going to sacrifice yourself?
Colwyn O'Reilly: Tyran, we're not in Kansas anymore
Colwyn O'Reilly: or wherever you came from
Tyran Drenski start feeling like rocky is invovled
Withers: This does not involve the unnecessary and exceptionally bloody deaths of my men?
Christy Thompson: Hopefully not.
[w] Dugan: Christy put Samson on point
Tyran Drenski: tucson colwyn
She pulls out a pair of Hush Puppy pistols.
Dugan: ooo
Dugan: pretty
Samson: Umm...those are US Special Forces issue only.
Christy Thompson: Yeah, I borrowed them.
Tyran Drenski laughs...she is going to tickle it to death
Tyran Drenski: we need a M80
Tyran Drenski: i got claymores
Ranger Richard: I was thinking more of a b52 strike called in from base
Colwyn O'Reilly: so... are going to do this or not?
Ranger Richard: hmm does this guardian have any weaknesses?
Tyran Drenski: richard has the better idea
Colwyn O'Reilly: I say we put becker and rooky at the entrance as lookouts
Colwyn O'Reilly: except rooky has some serious negatives to his notice check right now
Tyran Drenski: don't abuse the dead guy!
Ranger Richard: rooky wont really al;ert us to anything ya know.
Dugan: both eyes are swollen shut?
Christy Thompson: Drenski, pull out the Jade Golem. When we move up to the entrance, say "itiramam" then "chengo-biashi"
Colwyn O'Reilly: Notice (Death -10) [Critical failure!] [1d6-10 = -9]
Tyran Drenski turns white!!!!!! Not Rocky
Ranger Richard: wow did you fall and break neck watching out for snake?
Dugan: what does that make him do Lieutenant Dan
Christy Thompson: Then toss him in the cave entrance. He will stop the guardian for 12 seconds. So everyone stick close on my heels as I go in.
Christy Thompson: And DON'T TOUCH HIM. We will get him on the way out.
Ranger Richard: medic!!!!!!!!!!!
Ranger Richard: garb cristys wonder needle and stick Colwyn quick :)
Tyran Drenski: I get him back
Christy Thompson: And Dugan, if you call me Lieutenant Dan one more time, I will sever your vocal cords.
Samson: OOOOHH! I'm in LOVE!
Dugan: zipper
Ranger Richard: ummm doesnt that kind of block our exit with explosives ticking away?
Christy Thompson: Yes, you can have him back Drenski.
Tyran Drenski reaches into his back..nearly in tears
Tyran Drenski: be safe little guy
Becker: I'm going to stand guard outside. Since I don't feel so good.
Tyran Drenski: I hope you all are ready........................Itiramam...Chengo-Biashi....(he tosses him in)
Colwyn O'Reilly isn't first
Tyran Drenski follows orders
Ranger Richard: lines up against Cristy
Colwyn O'Reilly stands behind samson
The Jade Statue flies forward, pulling his spear out. He lands on his feet at the cave entrance and stabs the spear into the ground. There is a rippling effect, like a curtain being pulled back from where the statue's spear is.
Christy Thompson: Go go go!
She runs into the cave.
Dugan: runs in to the cave
Ranger Richard: well the only two things guarnteed in life are taxes and death one day so lets rock!
Tyran Drenski runs in after most everyone else....he only has a very small gun
Colwyn O'Reilly: i have a bad feeling about this
Ranger Richard: whew hoo runs in
Tyran Drenski no grenades in here
Colwyn O'Reilly follows
Ranger Richard: I feel; like han solo in star wars running into troop of storm troopers
Dugan (adrenaline): pumping
Colwyn O'Reilly shoots the darkness
Dugan: ouch! watch it!
Nessie (Tyran Drenski): sooooo what happens when we go in...we dead??
Dugan: does Waddles waddle?

Nessie (Tyran Drenski): lets not get on her bad side
"Christy Thompson" dives past the statue, sliiding on her back then kick-stopping to her feet as she fires off eight rounds from her Hush-Puppy pistols. Three of the NVA at the door fall over dead. The fourth one looks stunned.
Nessie (Tyran Drenski): she is like a female version os superman...reporter by day vc killer by night
Hogpile: Okay, that is cool. So like, we're here to watch, right?

Withers: Yes ma'am. Hogpile, M60 that way, Samson, M79 that way. Look sharp.

Colwyn O'Reilly: actually... how do you feel about grenades, ma'am?

The deck has been shuffled.
Christy Thompson: Grenade away O'Reilly.
Colwyn O'Reilly: Throwing: M26 Grenade (Double Tap +1) [1d4+1 = 4]
GM: Thrown Deviation [2d12 = 11]
GM: That throw is a little short...
[w] Dugan: can i throw one?
[w] -> Dugan: Sure, don't forget the +2 for your magic ever-appearing Joker.
[w] Dugan: this is the best time.
Dugan
[w] Tyran Drenski: how bad is it if i grenade launch then miss
Dugan: Throwing (Joker +2) [Trait roll was a natural 1] [1d6+2 = 5]
[w] -> Tyran Drenski: It will probably hit a wall and explode. Then you would find out.
GM: Roll damage, add 2.
[w] Tyran Drenski: i'll stick to throwing
Dugan: M26 Grenade damage (Joker +2) [Raise] [4d6+2 = 21]

Ranger Richard
Ranger Richard: guess i will just move up
Ranger Richard: save some for me next time!
Nessie (Tyran Drenski): sorry...i'm a killing machine...i was born this way
Now that the firing has ceased, you notice that the walls of this cave are lined with skulls from floor to ceiling. They all look they have been here for a very long time.
Colwyn O'Reilly: do they have channels carved in them?
Dugan: Fred!
Tyran Drenski: not the first to die in here
Dugan: starts looking for his old friend
Tyran Drenski: no one pee
GM: They do not have channels carved into them.
Christy Thompson: Richard point. Dugan next. O'Reilly and Drenski behind me.
In here, each square = 2 points of pace.
Colwyn O'Reilly: yes ma'am
Ranger Richard: What is a channel carved in?
Ranger Richard: okay moving
Tyran Drenski moves
Ranger Richard: any lighting in here or is it all flashlight?
GM: These are not like the skulls found earlier that had channels carved into the bone.
There is a burning torch every twenty feet, so you can see but everything counts as dim light.
Ranger Richard: wow-LT still have a camera with a good flash?
GM: Notice checks.
Colwyn O'Reilly: Notice [1d6 = 5]
Ranger Richard: Notice [1d8 = 6]
Dugan: Notice [Trait roll was a natural 1] [1d6 = 2]
Tyran Drenski: Notice (Good) [1d6 = 15]
Nessie (Tyran Drenski): I see all
Ranger Richard: nice crystal ball!
Dugan: good thing i'm not totally up front
Nessie (Tyran Drenski): dhu stop staring at her butt...lol
Christy Thompson: No, I keep the Hush Puppies in the film compartment, so I left the camera outside.
Dhu (Dugan): she put me in front of her so she could stare at mine
Ranger Richard: hey she morphed back to Christy?
Everyone but Dugan hears the distant sound of voices chanting in something that sounds like Vietnamese.
Nessie (Tyran Drenski): she put her glasses back on
Ranger Richard: ahh
Tyran Drenski: sounds like chating how many are up there?
Ranger Richard: well lets move up with as much stealth as possible
Dugan: what ... i don' hear anything ..
GM: Technically, her name is "Christy Thompson" as far as any CHARACTER here knows. If the players know something else...
Dugan: i think we're the only ones here
GM: Stealth checks moving forward.
Tyran Drenski: shhh dugan and i'll help you find fred...but be very quiet okay
[w] Dugan: is that agility?
Ranger Richard: Stealth [1d8 = 5]
Lt. Andrea Devine: Stealth {+2 Stealth} [1d6+2 = 19]
Tyran Drenski: Stealth [1d6 = 7]
Colwyn O'Reilly: Stealth [Trait roll was a natural 1] [1d6 = 5]
[w] -> Dugan: If you don't have it, it is unskilled.
Dugan: [CRITICAL FAILURE!] [1d6 = 1]
Well, Richard, Drenski, and O'Reilly are stealthy. Christy turns invisible. (Well, not really, but her stealth check is higher than everyone else combined.) Dugan begins singing loudly.
Campaign saved.
