Why not both shoot it with the railgun and beat it with our own arm?

Also, jeez Anne and Jen must be in serious pain right now...

EDIT:Well, that was the worst possible time for me to get a pagetopper.

Far as I understand, the arm you people want to beat it with is still attached.

Sounds to me like trying to beat it with said arm would be a bad idea.

Given the considerations raised:

United in hate

• Everything with a gun, shoot Forearm in the chest. Hopefully the injuries left it with some nice vulnerable wounds.
• If it's still up, punch it in the chest with our good arm until that stops being true.

United in Hate sounds good, but we still have IFOs to deal with, right?

Remember, one action for your left side and one action for your right. You can't punch it twice with the same arm with your two actions.

Just one.

Well, if it's just one, then we can clean it up after we deal with Darmani here. I vote United in Hate.

If we kick it or headbutt it or some such with our right-side-action, that isn't going to penalize our punching, correct?

Should we have Wild Ronin try to grab one of the Alien Ships while everything with a gun is shooting the Kaiju? You know, then maybe try to use it as a weapon or something?

True.

Wonder if I need to make a weapon stat for your forehead.

Ooh, we came out with the Kaiju hat we picked up last fight, right? Does that give a damage bonus to headbutting or something?

Actually it would probably just make Gororon even angrier than he already is.

Can we use the skull hat's teeth as weapons?

Maybe instead of saying right arm destroyed, you should say right arm armor destroyed. Just a thought.

Anyways, as for our actions... hmmm.

Plan VENGEANCE SHALL BE SWIFT

• Have the ninjas finish off the IF Os
• Have everything else shoot at the Kaiju
• After everything has fired close to melee range and punch it with all our might. Use spare action for either headbutt or a knee.

Calling shots to the damaged chest, or just trying to hit the monster?

What if we Shoulder Bashed it? Does that seem like a... safe... idea?

Plan F@<* YOU

• Have the Ninja Drones deal with the remaining IFO.
• Everything else fire at the Kaiju as Ronin runs at it, left shoulder and arm held in a bashing position.

I think I'll be saying (limb) crippled from now on.

That works too.

Also, yeah the shoulder bash sounds like a good idea.

[X] Bandwagoning...

Didn't we have our guys flee from Gororon? I don't think they're in range.

Ehh.....

I thought we just had them hide.

Some of the ground conventionals are in range because they engaged the IFO's. The PT boats are also fast enough to get to Gororon, but they can't hit air targets.

Your ground forces are kinda in chaos right now though.

Random thought, we should totally find that life-sized gundam and turn it into an actual mech.

I put odds on a Kaiju having already found it, mistaken it for a Jaeger, and smashing it.

Damn.

Also, more feasible idea. Research powered hazard suit armor for infantry, put them in a high speed drop ship, drop them on a kaiju, then have them perform organ removal during the fight.

Well, it was more feasible until I remember if we actually start hitting it from the outside we would kill our own men. And if we told them to bail out before that, they'd probably get stomped on.

Awwww...

Could probably still use it for kaiju hunting. Basically cut the kaiju up from the inside where it can't hurt them. Basically it would be like a poison effect.

Might as well just try to locate Aaron Stack while you're at it and convince him to let us start feeding him to Kaiju as a standard-issue battle plan.
