Lysimachus Posted August 11 Share Posted August 11 Pretty sure Kraith and Ashmon haven't acted in the current Round either...? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/381759-a-time-of-reaving-interest/page/22/#findComment-6127461 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord_Ikka Posted August 11 Share Posted August 11 Jraith is still watching the sides/rear, so not really acting this round. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/381759-a-time-of-reaving-interest/page/22/#findComment-6127502 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lysimachus Posted Friday at 06:57 AM Share Posted Friday at 06:57 AM (edited) Well, no great surprises there, then. (Edit: for clarity, I'm referring to the latest IC development) What does everyone think regarding options? Fighting is, I'm assuming, out? We're massively outnumbered, so... If there is time, do we take Hadrian back to the garrison to try and crack the secure part of the Armoury? Or do we blow up the transport, and leave the booby trap to blow up the garrison? (We won't have gained very much in terms of supplies by this option, but we will have denied those same supplies to the enemy, so in that sense its still a partial win?) I think all of the above depends on who is where, when the various ships will reach their destinations, and when the garrison bomb is set to go off, so we need answers before we can even start to plan?

Lord_Ikka Posted Friday at 07:15 AM Share Posted Friday at 07:15 AM One frigate versus three frigates and a cruiser, even if the enemy is damaged, is not going to go well. Fighting is definitely out. Going back and trying to open the armory is the best option as far as actual supplies we'll get- scuttling the supply hauler and destroying the armory deny the enemy supplies but we don't really gain anything aside from the small arms/ammunition we've taken so far. If we have time to get back before more than a single enemy ship can intercept, we probably should.

Trokair Posted Friday at 08:04 AM Share Posted Friday at 08:04 AM I think this might be a case of cut and run. Getting the garrison might have been good, but I don't think we have the time to go back, crack it, plunder it and get away without a fight, and any fight involving multiple enemy ships will cost us more in resources then the garrison is likely to provide (manpower, starship ammunition and so on). As for scuttling the cargo carrier we are on, could we rig it to not blow until the enemy comes to investigate so as to maybe damage one of their ships?

Machine God Posted Friday at 04:33 PM Share Posted Friday at 04:33 PM Obviously, get to the Thunder hawk then the Ship and the closest Mandeville Point and Jump. We are out gunned.

Necronaut Posted Saturday at 04:33 PM Share Posted Saturday at 04:33 PM I will start bashing something together this afternoon to that end; hope to have it ready today.

Necronaut Posted Saturday at 08:49 PM Share Posted Saturday at 08:49 PM (edited) Okay team, I know I did this a little out of order, so apologies. I/Hadrian have/has proposed a plan combining our original plan with Elvritt's suggestion to lure the traitors away from the planet, with the added potential possibility of rigging this bulk hauler as a time delay explosive, of sorts, assuming I can make the tech-use and other sundry tests necessary. Does anyone have any thoughts on this? I'm happy to alter my post as needed if we think this is too risky or whatever.

Trokair Posted Saturday at 10:19 PM Share Posted Saturday at 10:19 PM I am happy to give this a go, if it works maximum danage to the Oathbreakers, if it fails then we will see how TPK happy our GM is.

Lysimachus Posted Saturday at 10:22 PM Share Posted Saturday at 10:22 PM (edited) Great idea! The only thing I'd say about Elvrit's suggestion to try and delay the IW is that it might be totally unnecessary? If BC says there is no way they will make it to the garrison before the bomb goes off, then we don't need to do anything and we are free to cut and run without any risk to us/our ship. However, if they might make it planetside in time, then I would say an attempt to distract and delay them (still without putting our ship at any real risk) would be worthwhile? So @Black Cohort: can the IW make it in time to stop the bomb, or not?

Black Cohort Posted Saturday at 10:39 PM Author Share Posted Saturday at 10:39 PM No, they don't know about it and would have to operate far to recklessly for an IW approaching a planet like this, especially since they know you are here. Sure they have enough firepower to kill you. but you could severely damage or even ram something. Frigates usually operate in pairs or quads, so they are probably already down a ship.

Lysimachus Posted yesterday at 06:09 AM Share Posted yesterday at 06:09 AM Awesome, so the garrison is going to blow regardless of what we do now? In that case, we just need to set the transport to explode too (maybe as Necro said, with a timer or trigger to try and catch at least one of the IW ships in the blast?) and then get the hell out of Dodge Phastus.

Lysimachus Posted 22 hours ago Share Posted 22 hours ago Derp, I didn't even think about there being more defenders inside the Engineerium... Is there any point in trying a bit of diplomacy? The dude is AdMech, could he still be loyal? Or are we out of time? Should we just kill them and carry on with the sabotage? Just checking I've understood correctly, GM - You said the IW ships are all headed for Phastus, and not towards us, right?

Trokair Posted 20 hours ago Share Posted 20 hours ago We could certainly ask where his loyalties lie, that wont take much time.
