@Musaki Hajime Alright, so here's the low-down. The battle for the city of Vasel is on (after squad 7 so helpfully dumped an entire armour column into the drink). Our squad was originally acting as a scout/vanguard group, but now is acting as reinforcements for the main Gallian Army/Militia. The imperials began a massive counter attack, and pushed the Gallians back, we swept in from behind and broke the assault and are now spearheading the attack on Imperial's frontline command post.
The command post on the second floor of the building marked by the orange circle (under the imperial flag). Because of the way defenses were laid out, we split into two teams. Zark (Corporal Hunt's) group took the light tank that was assigned to us and advanced up the street, My (Lilly's) team hustled through the northern alleys and buildings to flank, and Charlie section (where you will be) flanked from the southern path (blue).
Background for Charlie Section:
They weren't a part of our squad in the beginning, but were assigned to us after we stopped the imperial attack to give us more manpower to push forward. Currently it's composed entirely of NPCs, since our other player in that group dropped out.
NPCs of note are:
Private Smythe - The section's radio operator. He's armed with a rifle, and I usually control him to give the group orders
Private Sue & Joseph Clark - Twins who enlisted together as shock troopers. I haven't really set a personality or anything in stone (aside from them caring for each other), so feel free to take control of them when ever you want.
What's the current situation?
- We're in the process of storming the first floor of the command post, but the Imperials called in artillery and hammered the shit out of us. The tank we were working with was destroyed, and lots of the players have their characters in various states of wounded-ness from the explosions. Because of this...
- Lilly's team (currently half way through the first floor) is only at 60% effectiveness (2 of the 5 members are wounded and unable to fight). They started encountering stiff resistance as they approached the stairs leading to the second floor and have stalled out, needing reinforcements to continue pushing up.
- Hunt's team has taken shelter in the building just below the command post. They have several wounded, and Hunt has been busying himself with pulling the surviving crew out of the destroyed tank. They were supposed to reinforce Lilly's team, but have delayed by their own wounded, and having to rescue the tank crew.
- Charlie Section... Take a look at this post:

The artillery wounded Joe, and Sue is currently taking cover in the alley between Hunt's team's house and the imperial CP. Joeseph got hit by artillery was severely wounded, and is trying to crawl to cover. Private Smythe is about half way through his charge to the building, but hasn't done anything yet. This is where you come in. We're just going to drop you in as a hither-to unmentioned member of charlie section. Feel free to control any of them and do what you want. You could help Hunt, you could help Lilly's team, take your pick. Oh, and artillery is still coming down. Watch yo step lol.
Here's a map of the imperial house (we entered by blowing open the front wall with a mortar lance).
The red circle is the imperial commander (we want to kill or capture him), on the second floor.
Here's a link to the post with the area maps showing how we ended up in this situation...
