Just so as you guys know, I'll be on my way to Colorado soon, so I wanted to leave some notes for Shaman to NPC me while I'm away. If the fell that is by the wagon gets too far away, Pyotr will want to switch to his rifle. But if he stays in medium range, Pyotr will stay with his smg. Other than that, he follows orders to the best of his ability. Thanks guys, and especially Shaman for an awesome game. See you in a week.

Vidal sees the figure dart behind the wagon. He determines that no farmer would have trouble recognizing the legionnaires, so this must be a hostile individual. He bolts for cover behind the trailer near the southwestern corner of the barn as he reaches for a grenade and readies it to throw at the near side of the wagon.
Unless Nedjar barks some quick intentions otherwise, Vidal plans to immediately throw the grenade after arriving at the trailer so as to disable the wagon and hopefully stun the fella into submission.

Nedjar answers Pyotr by firing a quick burst from his submachine gun at the fleeing man, who dives behind the wooden trailer – there is a loud *PLINK-PLUNK!* as the bullets hit the iron pipe rails of the corrals by the stables. The horse in the far pen squeals and rears in fright. “Suppressing fire!” exclaims Nedjar.
Vidal runs across the space between the barn and the trailer, taking cover behind its reassuring metal sides. He readies a grenade and eyes the distance to where the fleeing rifleman is hiding. Vidal: The trailer provides 1/2 cover. Distance to the hiding fellagha is about 130’.
Marcel hears the gunfire from around the barn, sees Normand out of the corner of his eye as the big Frenchman heaves against the heavy door to the barn. It opens slowly, issuing a thick cloud of white smoke as it swings on its hinges, and the German sous-officier dives inside quickly, keeping to the right, followed by Sgt. Kat and Pamuk who move left – all hold weapons at the ready. The legionnaires become vague, amorphous shapes in the smoky interior. Normand: DC to open the barn was 5 – hard to miss that one. End of round 7. Spot checks from everyone, please.

Marcel keeps his concentration and follows his orders, covering the loft. He moves slightly back to try and get a better angle of fire on the spot. Last thing we need is that guy dropping a grenade out the opening on Normand's head.
ooc: Move twenty feet or so away from the barn to get a better view of the loft holding my attack in case I spot movement. Spot check is a 22 (!)

Vidal looks back at the men near the barn, heart racing and sweat pouring. "Give me covering fire! I'm going to get closer!" He pauses for a moment to receive acknowledgement of his request - either by word, motion, or action - then bolts around the south side of the trailer toward the fellagha, grenade still in hand.
Vidal will run at 4X speed toward the dot at trailer #2. I estimate that 120' of movement should be just about enough, but correct me if you disagree. His next turn will be used to make a brief move to the southeast and a throw from concealment, hopefully with enough fuel left to retreat a few feet in case of a fumble.

Pyotr nods at Nedjar's command. Pointing the MAT-49 at the wagon, his finger quickly tightens on the trigger, sending rounds flying towards the escaping fell.
Suppression fire towards the fell by the wagon. Full round action, five rounds used.

Pyotr’s submachine gun rattles, spitting bullets across the farmyard at the wooden trailer, trying to keep the rifleman pinned down. Nedjar dashes across to the trailer where Vidal waits. The radioman looks to voltiguer and says, “Give me covering fire! I'm going to get closer!”
“Go!” he replies, and fires a long burst at the wagon. Vidal sprints from behind the trailer, racing across the dusty farmyard, MAT-49 in one hand, grenade in another.
Marcel watches the barn as Normand moves inside. Out of the corner of his eye the medic sees the legionnaires moving to the east, hears the long peals of automatic fire, as the smoke billows out of the barn. A voice – Ortu, calling his name – “Doc, what the devil’s going on over there?” he implores.
Inside the barn the smoke and the hastening twilight make it difficult to see anything, but Normand can make out a strip of light at the far end of the barn through the haze – the opposite door is part-way open. The interior of the barn is like a maze – Normand can just make out the shape of a tractor and a stack of filled burlap sacks as he follows Sgt. Müller. The German holds his submachine gun pressed tightly against his shoulder, swinging the barrel from side-to-side as he scans. “Kat!” he hisses, and Sgt. Katsourianis, followed by Burhan Pamuk takes off for the far end of the barn, moving quickly but deliberately to reach the far door – once across Kat peers out through the open doorway as Pamuk looks back into the barn, toward the loft over Normand’s head.
Normand looks up toward the loft as well – he can faintly make out the wooden platform that extends some six or seven meters across the barn’s interior, some four meters above his head. His ears strain to catch a creaking board, his eyes to see a puff of falling dust, anything that might betray their ambusher, but the billowing smoke and the roar of the guns outside make it impossible.
As Vidal runs across the farmyard, the air around him is suddenly filled with the whiz and crack of bullets. Vidal: Reflex save, DC 15, to avoid autofire – if you fail the check, please make a Cool check for me as well. If you make either the Reflex save or the Cool check, Vidal will reach the trailer. If not...

Inside the barn, Normand is once again tempted to switch his weapon to grenade-launcher, and just lob one in the loft.
Think, idiot! That'd bring the freakin' barn on your own head. Just because you got a new toy..
Instead, he puts himself close to the tractor, and keeps his eyes and ears open.

Spot check: 17
