Well ... Heyitsjiwon's last post mentioned that his character was carrying an RPG and that he considered using it against the Goleyeith, but hmmm ... you're right about the limited fuel and the fact that the RPG's a Rocket Propelled Grenade as opposed to a clear cut Anti-Tank Buster. Still, it's worth an attempt! The explosion, big or small, might give some breathing room for an evacuation of sorts. The only other counter-measure I could think of besides your previous suggestions would be for Carolyn to draw its attention while the the others in South-East and Central Complex Sectors could concentrate small arms fire on its joints, eyes, or head. While the Goleyeith's preoccupied, this might give the survivors time to retreat!
Actually... RPGs are anti-tank weaponry... They work by piercing through their point of impact, through the armour and exploding on the other side, usually cooking whatever is on the inside... Could perhaps work... I was almost hoping more for the C4 package, though. Oh well. It'll have to work?
And we're not talking Carolyn here to draw distraction. We want HER safe. Georgia would be the distraction in this case.

As it stands right now, my biggest worry is Roman. He's pretty much defenseless, and along with Eira, stuck in an alley. At this point, I'm uncertain as to whether or not this alley has an exit.Now, my original plan for my next post was to get Roman to look for an exit while I shoot at the Goliath and retreat. The shooting was to keep it down, as worked before, while Roman does his search. However, now that I'm on the same level as it, it might just go ahead and attack me—I'm also uncertain as to the width of this alley, and whether the Goliath could fit in it.Unless it comes to me trying to hold off the Goliath for Roman, however, getting Eira out of there shouldn't be a problem. With the jump jets, I can always just fly out and join the apartment. I considered taking Roman on 's back or something, but that would be pretty risky and I don't want to risk Roman.So, if Roman goes on a search while I make a last stand, hopefully he'll find an exit, and we can make an escape. I am willing to take that risk to give the tankers more time, if that's what the group thinks best. Or, we could get a diversion, leaving Eira a little safer, but giving the tankers less time to escape, and look for an exit in the back of the alleyway regardless.Also, on the subject of bodies, I believe we have a fresh Vampyr corpse that would do quite nicely.
I doubt it matters how big the alley is or is not... because the Goleyeith has proved capable of smashing through walls already.
As far as the explosives in a body, the RPGs won't really work well for it, but I'm pretty sure if you got Georgia and Carolyn working with a Technician's kit, given a 3+ minutes IC, we could rig some frag grenades as actual explosives to go off on a timer.... Would probably be a bit unstable and a little hazardous, I bet. (Had Brovo confirmation on this if I worked this route)
As far as a distraction, if you need one, I'm game to help. I just need to know what y'all are or are not doing before I work any particular way.

The obvious answer to this conundrum is to shoot the Goleyeith with Sam's HE Missiles of Enlightenment.
When you arrive. That's still a round away. xD And no guarantee you'll be in SE. Could be SW. Both are missing the same number of slots available on the roster.
