[OOC] World War Kaiju (OPEN)

[KaijuBaragon]

Looks good, I can't wait to get started.

[Polyphemus]

And we're off. I hope I made the situation clear, let me know if you have any questions!

[Tim the Yeti]

Is there a specific posting order?

[Polyphemus]

No, just post whenever it feels natural.

@Polyphemus
Real quick before I post, just something on the briefing I'd like to clear up. Do the photographs show enough tracks to determine how many legs the creature likely has? I'd think that around 6 pairs of prints would be enough to make at least an educated guess.

@R31GN

Great question, sorry that I didn't make that clear. The photograph shows around sixteen prints- which may suggest about eight legs.

[R31GN]

Lovely, thanks. Finally got something up, sorry about my delay.

[Polyphemus]

Gosh, guys, I have to say these are some pretty good ideas we're coming out with. Maybe we should handle giant monster attacks in real life.

Also I love that Huan Xiao is traveling with what's basically a weapon of mass destruction. It's a good thing we have a private flight, can you imagine trying to get that through customs?

[Jangel13]

So who are we still waiting on?

[R31GN]

Looks like good ol' Gimple is the only one who hasn't jumped on this rotation

[Polyphemus]

That's right. I want to make sure everyone gets a proper introduction before moving the plot along, it's only fair to you as players.

If everyone's cool after that, next thing is to land the plane, meet up with a few Army officers, then head off to labs, patrols, planning centers, wherever we feel we'd be most useful. I know everyone's eager to get to the heart of the matter!

Question as a gunnery engineer am I allowed to work on the weapons on hand? Like a rifle I get I can improve for the situation?

@Jangel13

I'd say it depends on what you're trying to do with it. Did you have something specific in mind?

One make some pipe bombs second equip all soldiers with armor piercing rounds

@Jangel13

Interesting thoughts. I'd say the pipe bombs are fine, anyone with basic chemistry knowledge can crank out a few of those. Thought it's worth noting that even an underequipped military like the Irish Army would have ready access to safer and higher-grade explosives. As for armor-piercing rounds, I'd rule that building enough to equip a decent number of riflemen would take at least a week of nonstop effort, and I feel even that's pretty generous.

[Jangel13]

True but the thing that pipe bombs have over other forms of explosives is the heavy amount of shrapnel they can produce on impact. Even enemies in heavy armor can't handle around 10 soldiers throwing pipe bombs it is bound to hit a vital spot.

For the armor piercing rounds sounds fine just now I'm thinking of whatever weapons can hit past or go through armor plating

Sorry it's been taking me so long, guys. As soon as classes ended, work has been hell. It'll settle down soon.

@Gimple

No problem, real life stuff should always come first.

[Polyphemus]

Alright guys, new post to move the plot along.

Whatever you plan to do, though, do it quick. Nightfall is coming. . .

[datadogie]
