P-Khan · September 2003

*goes to the IP in which Khaim is*
"There, this way we build this faster"

Jaeger · September 2003

*takes a defensive position at the corner of the room, sweeping his LMG-mounted tac light over the reflective surfaces*
"Call me crazy here, but I dunno if anyone else noticed. All this blood on the floor... and no bodies?"

Mr_Headcrab · September 2003

"Damn things ate em, did the same thing back on the W.T. Hell." *Ed still faces the corridor* "Gonna feed a Pointy Kitty some hot steamin lead, Here Kitty Kitty Kitty...."

Lord_Darkness · September 2003

"Ed's right, the same thing happened to most of the bodies on the W.T.Hell, with the exception of a whole bunch of bodies lying around in one of the rooms near the bridge. Funny thing is, they weren't killed by Kharaa, they all had bullet wounds. And I don't mean the little things from a 9mm round either, they looked like they were done by a Desert Eagle. One of them was a, close friend of mine."
*starts building res tower*

Bogglesteinsky · September 2003

"did we ever find out what happened on that ship?"

343_guilty_spark · September 2003

Ugh Star Wars KOTOR is addictive, hey seeing how it's my birthday tomorrow, could Xect spam scans and we all have a blue light special? Also i didn't write about my character picking up a gun, think im allowed to say i pulled it out of now where or will i get one dropped.

*Looks around nervously.*
" We are safe aren't we ? I mean it's the most defendable room in this place right ?"

Khaim · September 2003

"Well we can hope it's the easiest ot defend, but ya never know, those crazy aliens may just even burrow through the freakin wall anytime, they're crazy like that."
*Finishes the IP and moves his hand over the turret factory Holding his lmg with his free hand*

Paper · September 2003

*Pops a few skittles in his mouth, huming the tune to Ride of the Valkyries, Waving his fingers in the air as if he was the conductor.

Khaim · October 2003

Off topic but, Happeh Birthday Sparky xD

"hums quietly to self along with Paper

xect · October 2003

Once the turret factory is finished, the commander drops a set of 4 turrets surrounding the turret factory, each of the 3 doors into the ship being covered by 3 of the 4 turrets.

Let's just assume you have a gun, sounds like basic logic to pick up a gun when walking into battle.

Night_Shade · October 2003

*finishes the res node, moves over to a turret and starts building*
"Oooh, we gonna farm up or just basic defenses?"

Rokiyo · October 2003

***BALEETED***

(sorry, little sis accidently posted an earlier, incomplete, version of this post without me realising)

Rokiyo · October 2003

*Stumbles off the freshly built IP, his face a definate shade of green, obviously unused to multiple long distance jumps in short amount of time*

"Hi gu... g..."

*Steadies himself on the turret factory*

"Wow... And I thought the first jump into the dropship was bad..." He says quietly to himself.

Hi, sorry for the late joining, only found this topic the other day. Looks like it's a lot of fun though. BTW if you want to grab a colour that isn't on the little toolbar, just go to <a href='http://tools.siteowners.com/tools_colors.shtml' target='_blank'>this website</a> and browse the different colour codes. For instance, mine is #00FF00, and to use it in the forums, I type (color=00FF00)Blah blah(/color) (obviously using [] instead of () )

Khaim · October 2003

*goes over to steady revenge*
"Heh, you should see what happened to paper, he's all messed up, and ed even almost managed to kill himself, I'd say a sickened stomach only is a good thing for our group."
*grins*
"Back to work then, you ok?"
*goes back to building things, this time on a couple of turrets at once, one in each hand*
"Hey look, dual building heh..."
*stops buidling one to quickly grab his lmg in case anything decides to come attack.*
Was wondering what was with that short messed up color post from earlier revenge <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'>

Rokiyo · October 2003

*Weakly looks up at Khaim, and smiles*

"Yeah I guess you're right"

*Wipes his face and follows Khaim, resuming building the other turret that he had stopped working on*

Lol I was hoping nobody had seen it... Too slow I guess <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'>

deaincaelo · October 2003

*cheacks down the hall out for signd of khraa*
"welcome aboard, revenge. looks like this base isnt gunna go down very easy, so thats some comfort"
*builds the nearest unfinished building, then next, etc.*

Bogglesteinsky · October 2003

"No kharaa that I can see"

*sits down on the top block, legs swinging, still aiming with pistol*

343_guilty_spark · October 2003

Thanx Khaim.

" Of all my wacked up B-days this beats the rest, heh, erm my gun is broken, the trigger is kinda stiff."

xect · October 2003

Suddenly, a loud GROWL is heard, others join it, and 5 skulks come rushing out from the door opposite where you entered. The turret to their left, just being finished, starts targeting. Doesnt take them out though, the clicking of their feet grows louder at they run towards you.

Jaeger · October 2003

"Scatter! Move it!"
*rolls to the floor next to the turret factory, springs into a crouch and sights the skulk closest to the left turret*
"Eat this you slimy ****!"
[lines up a snap shot, burst fire toggle and taps the trigger four times in rapid succession at the skulk]

Khaim · October 2003

*sees the skulks as his newly finished turret begins to move*
"OH S***!"
[Jumps off to the side knocking revenge away from the on commming skulks with him]
W00t action <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'>

P-Khan · October 2003

*sees skulk rush*
"Oh ****...."
*takes out knife, and puts it between mouth. pulls our Vladstock*
[jumps backwards, Max Payne style, and takes aim at a skulks who is reaching for the IP. Fires 5 bullets from Vladstock, which has armor penetrating bullets]

BTW, I don't understand the [ ] very well. We write actions there, and then xect decides what happens?

zooby · October 2003

*Runs to the gunfire*
"Holy Crap! Skulks!!"
*shoulders rifle and burst-fires at the closest skulk.*

Rokiyo · October 2003

"Oh my g- OOMPH!"
*Gets cut off abrutly as Khaim slams into him, causing him to trip on his own feet and fall hard*
"S***!!!!!!"
*Glances back at Khaim*
"C'mon!"

[He tries to scramble up onto his feet as quickly as he can in order to try and get somewhere safer]

P-Khan, I thought only Ed was allowed to have custom weaponry? Besides I don't know what good AP bullets would do you against soft targets, hollow point rpunds (for instance) rounds do more damage because they fragment inside the body and all of their kinetic energy is transfered to the target, where as the AP round continues through without losing too much speed (therefore wasting the majority of the bullet's energy on the wall behind your target).

Not to mention that FF technology would be far less effective on a bullet that was far more dense, and I doubt the Frontiersmen would want their soldier carrying weaponry that negated part of FF's stopping power...

EDIT: And before you think I'm some sort of gun freak, please note that I looked all of that up in google in 5 seconds flat. Before that all I knew is that AP bullets weren't meant to be used against soft targets but I didn't know why.

P-Khan · October 2003

|Actually, I'm allowed to have the Vladstock, which is a modified pistol of the Frontiersman. Kinda the same, but with a higher fire power and less acuracy.

Now, I can't argue anything about guns and these sort of things, since I don't have a good understanding on this subjet. The AP bullets will be used for harder targets, such as fades and onos. The thing is that those bullets are the type of bullets inside the pistol's clip, and I used the pistol because it's supposed to have more accuracy than the LMG

Rokiyo · October 2003

Oops, I had assumed it was a modified LMG, in which case you would have been using AP rounds as your primary ammo type... Ah well, it's all good then I spose

Mr_Headcrab · October 2003

"Deja Vu" *Ed, standing in the middle of the hall, Levels Wynona at the incoming Skulks.
[Ed Opens up with Wynona at the incoming Skulks.]

deaincaelo · October 2003

"****"
*stops building*
[dives behind the completed turrent]
[pulls out pistol, covers khaim and revenge]
bang bang bang?

Night_Shade · October 2003

"Oooh ****!"
*Crouches down next to the just-completed turret and [opens fire on the skulks]*
Dea, for the love of the English language, there is no 'n' in turret!
