"Nice shooting, Bill!"

Bill_Door · January 2004

"That was easy!" I call back

FranticNS · January 2004

Thanks Parhelion, Don't know how I lost them. I have everybody elses.
Now that the forums are back to normal you can keep your old colours.

The Space Station

"Took your sweet time there 'Frantic'. You didn't get lost in the labrinth did you?"
*The whole space station is rocked by two massive explosions. Sgt. Epoch slams the lift door up button, but there is no response. Red Lighting begins to flash and several doors close automaticaly. Hissing and whining as their old and worn pneumatics sytems try to close them.*
"****! We're gonna have to take the emergency ladder."
*Epoch fires a few shots at a hatch in the lifts roof and it falls apart, showering you in shards of metal.*
"Ok Crew, your first."
*Sgt Epoch puts the palms of his hands together and gets ready to give Crew a boost up into the shaft.*

The Pelican

Fighter 1 pulmets towards the space station. The pilot manges to eject but his ship hits the soace station, driving deep into it before exploding.

/Fingers "Well done guys, now their gonna kill us all!"

/Pilot "Crusiers range is two clicks!"

The Desolator fires it's railgun again sending another urainium slug at hyper velosity through space hitting the space station. Both the space station and The Pelican are rocked violently by the impact. Leaving a searing aftertrail where the slug has past.

/Co-Pilot "Fighters to starboard and port. The Desolator is closing to our rear!"

As the desolator draws near you can now target vital systems.

Targets

Weapons - Gun turrets and cannons. Hits here stop the Desolator from firing, the rail gun cannot be disabled.
Engines - Thrusters and the main engines. Hits here slow the ship.
Bridge - The most heavily defended area on the ship. Hits here makes The Desolator drift and stops all weapons fire.

Fighter 2 closes in on the Pelican to attack.
Fighter 3 draws nearer to the Pelican to attack.
The Desolator advances towards the Pelican.

You've got the most powergun on the ship Dee. The other two gattling cannons just fire more bullets, but are weaker.

deaincaelo · February 2004

i know, and if all 3 guns had a LOS on all three targets i'ld take out the last 2 interceptors and then concentrate all our firepower on the incoming desolator. put up a wall of bullets. unfortunately, thats not an option.

"someone grab that port gun!"
[shoots]

Parhelion · February 2004

"Hey Seth mate, stop napping! You can sleep when we're heading back to Concord!"
*paces a bit, waiting for the squad to return from the station*
"Damn, I didn't realise the job was this stressful..."

Bill_Door · February 2004

"This is becoming a right pain"
[continues shooting the interceptor]

[Continues his hail of bullets on the fighters]

FranticNS · February 2004

Sorry been very busy haven't had much time to post

*follows Sarge up the ladder*

Parhelion · February 2004

Your very lucky, I was just about to kill you off.
Ok, now we're all here lets continue with the story. You've had more flight time then a gaggle of migrating geese.
And I'm sure your all bored of shooting space ships.

Bill_Door · February 2004

"Where's sarge? We need to leave now!"

Cleric_Epoch · February 2004

The Space Station

The ladder seems to go on for ever, but after a few minutes of climbing and a couple of near falls the team manage to reach the top.

*Sgt. Epoch checks the pocket with the mini-disk in and opens a voice comm to the ship.*
"We're almost there, just hold on a bit longer."
*Then he begins to run down the snaking corridors that leads back to the docking bay.*
"ETA two minutes. Come on guys lets haul ****!"

Will post The Pelicans' later. Bit tied up at the mo.

Cleric_Epoch · February 2004

Finialy I'm back, was talking to some girl for 3 hours...

The Pelican

/Pilot "That pannel is for our counter measures. Repairs werent finished on them. We're gonna need em if we're gonna get outta here alive."

/Fingers "Careful though, they are near the curcuits that exploded when Bill tryed fixing them"

/Co-Pilot "I'm picking up a battle group on long range sensors. I can't tell what they are yet though."

[Most of your bullets hit the fighter but only a few cause damage. It luanches a missile at the pelican as it passes. Then comes around for another attack run.]
[The fighter pulls of some fancy flying before a wing is hit causing crititcal damage. It still manages to get some shots of at the Pelican though.]

Several ships appear in the distance. Three appear to be light cruisers. All seem to be bristiling with guns. The rest are small frigettes and a few fighters.
Without warning the larger vessels launch salvoes of missiles at the Russian Cruiser, and your viewfinders are lit up with explosions.

/Fingers "They friendlies?"

/Co-Pilot "As long as the shoot Russians they are."

Pelican
