Toks smiles again, then his face becomes troubled.

"Met Ags out here too."

He pauses, looking west along the street towards the Convent.

OOC.

 

@Lysimachus - The convent is by your map North-East of Rolling Rocks on the other side of the mountainous tor. Not West.

Any mileage in having our new friends pose as shuttle crew?

 

We have a choice between trying to avoid a fight here, but not removing any defenders, or fighting here and reducing their numbers, but making infiltrating the Sisters' base much harder.

Interesting idea, I'm not sure how believable a crew of one old guy and a ratling would be, but you could def give it a go?

 

I'll add an update to give you an idea of the size of the opposition, but I'll hold off on actually starting a Structured fight so you can decide how you want to proceed?

 

Edit: There we go. So, a 10 Sister squad complete with Superior, special and heavy. A few Repentia (3ish?) A Rhino. An Immolator.

 

Based on what Toks has said, this is maybe a quarter to a third of the Sororitas forces on Viorda?

Oh, I am really missing Spearcast right now :p

 

You're not in the Deathwatch now, boys!!! :D

 

Crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and hear the lamentation of the women!

Well, I think that's one vote for fighting?

 

Watch out Conan, that the women don't drive over and crush your lamentations! ;)

 

Going to be an interesting one this...

:lol: Very fitting...

 

See, it's not all bad not having your Power Armour, is it? ;)

 

what do we have that can take out the vehicles? The repenta won't like heavy bolters.

Kraks will do it, and Ithan's Grav-shear (servo-arm), especially if you go for weaker rear or side Armour?

 

 

 

 

 

Again though, if you want to discuss trying to find a more subtle solution rather than going into combat, I'm happy for you to talk it through?

You all saw him, that was a loaded question!

 

I'm out here in the middle of the Hive in a towel and flip flops, and this guy here is cracking wise? :tongue.:

Just as a note:

 

I have prepared a text file with the post ready for the start of the battle.

 

I will be intending to:

 

- Pass a Cohesion Test

- Activate Bolter Assault

- Conduct a Bolter Assault for our "ambush"

- End Bolter Assault

- Start "Follow the Traveller's Path"

- Use Tactical Expertise to spread the Squad Mode to you all

- Give all of you a +5 bonus to all tests

- Do my actions

 

If all goes well, dice-wise, it'd mean we start my turn with 8 Cohesion and end it with 3. It will certainly benefit us to keep Cohesion as high as possible - if players are able to chip in one/any fate points to raise our Cohesion it will definitely help.

Excellent, the Traveller's tactical acumen comes to the fore once more! :D

 

So, I think we just need Initiative for Vesalius (position was on the roof of the store, right?) and Initiative and position for Ithan, then we're ready to go...?

@CM - Draak's Mk 3 armour gives +5 to prevent Cohesion Damage.
