The ghouls (and Jan) may be easily destroyed. Luke? Super-Speed and no chance of being hit makes Marines dull boys.

What is so amusing about this? Why do you take lives? How can you forget?

Uh, nman, you aren't meant to post a reaction from my guys before I can react.

Oh, crap, I thought those mooks were just cannon fodder to make Yuri go "I sense another group".

Also, Strigon, our groups are just standing around punching each other and things like that, what should we... well, do?

The Berzerkers have no reason to fight except that they can. And the only way you'll deal with them is to kill them, Not the easiest of tasks but is quite possible.

Shameless Self-promotion ho!

Are any of those Berserkers a named character, or all they all just mooks?

All elite mooks. The only ones with names are the ones I already mentioned.

Alright. Guess those two have to stop punching/shooting themselves eventually. Here goes nothing.

There are four of them and now three since you essentially disabled the one dueling Hale.

Oh, I read that line thinking that he actually took off his armor. Is is just standing their immobile or something instead?

Since you gave him a chance, he took it off to engage hale in a fistfight; proving that even the most violent and psychotic members of the chaos gods have some semblance of honor left. And can you finish him off in a suitably epic manner? I have to go to sleep.

A seven foot tall power-armoured genetically-engineered Super-Soldier thought he had a chance of defeating SAXTON HALE?

Hey Vox, so since I messed up that last bit, do you want to pull some conscripts out of thin air and just do whatever you were planning to the TF team?

Vox Since: Dec, 2010
#264: Nov 5th 2011 at 11:10:02 AM

[up] Nah, I wasn't planning anything special. In future though, it might be wise to avoid "X shot Y in the face" type posts in favour of "X shot in the direction of Y's face" type posts. The other person needs some say in what happens to their characters.

Alright, next time they go to town, it'll work out. Also, the "conscript" that was talking in my post was just the Spy in a disguise, not one of the USSR ones, in case that confused anyone.

What about the other two Berzerkers?

Shameless Self-promotion ho!
Vox Since: Dec, 2010
#269: Nov 5th 2011 at 8:26:27 PM

Yeah, Conscripts are somewhat lacking in the brain department.

nman Since: Mar, 2010
#270: Nov 5th 2011 at 8:27:16 PM

Hey Vox, is there anything else that conscript can do for the plot, or should he just die? Wasn't he mind controlled by Yuri or something?

And Strigon, for those three berserkers.. they're mooks fighting virtually all of the named TF team, but I can't think of any way to progress the "plot", since it's just three psychos and no actual talking heads from 40K. I don't feel good killing them outright, but they've been fighting for the better part of two pages of posts.

He can die whenever you want. He's not plot-important. You could grill him for further information I suppose, but I have nothing else planned.

[up][up]Just kill them, As there's still the main force on the desert; constructing a base of operations in preparation for a large scale battle.

I don't plan on having the TF team win, but their sacrifices can't be in vain. So they're just going to run around until someone with plot significance bumps into them.
