The jungle was still, broken only by the continued chatter of the two approaching men mixed in with the distant sounds of insects and birds. Wraith, Blaster, and Snake took cover behind the rocks while Evac moved around to a rear guard position, all directed by Zeus' plan to set up a kill zone. The waiting seemed to take forever as one minute crept by, and another at a snail's pace - but then suddenly the man on the right caught something suspicious in his eye and cursed, diving to the side...
Round 0.5 (suprise round)
Plan Bonus: +2
Initiatives:
21 - Unknown #1
20 - Blaster
16 - Evac
16 - Shadow Wolf (suprised)
14 - Wraith
14 - Unknown #2 (suprised)
8 - Zeus
6 - Silent Snake
The man on the right (#1) dives for cover amongst the trees and rocks.
Blaster and Evac are watching for other threats but so far haven't noticed any.
Wraith has already taken aim and tries to keep his bead as the target dives. He takes a shot at #1...but it's too late, as the target's already disappeared behind a tree. Magazine = 19.
Zeus tries to salvage the plan and takes his shot at #2 in hopes of knocking him out. The dart flies through the air and strikes the man squarely in the shoulder. He screams and tries to lift his rifle, but the movements are jerky, and without success. He falls to the ground. Magazine = 5.
Silent Snake takes a shot at where he saw #1 go - it looks like his arm is visible. Snake hits! Oh wait, just the tree - wood chips and splinters go flying in a burst into the air. Magazine = 29.
Shadow Wolf sees #1 dive for cover before something rips through the leaves where he was standing just a moment earlier. Then she sees #2 fall to the ground before a shower of splinters explodes from the tree #1 is hiding behind.
Actions for Round 1, please

F#ck me
Without thinking, borne of years of training as a marine sniper and then as a Navy Seal specialist, Kai took aim with her powerful rifle where #1 dove or at #1 and fired without remorse or thought, trusting that her cohorts-to-be had the sense of mind to take out #2 with one shot.
Damn men, can't take them anywhere, can we, Charlie?

Round 1
"Bastard..." Wraith thought. ....had to go and make this complicated. He rose to a crouching position.
One was down from the dart. That was good. He turned slighty and settled his sights on the tree the other man was behind. He had the man pinned down.
He whispered into his comm unit. "Hold position. We have him pinned."
OOC: Ready action - As soon as the enemy reduces his cover to 1/2, Wraith fires.
Can our sniper support pick up on our radios at this range?

Zeus swars under his breath and responds along the comm "He may have a radio, take him out."
He then puts away his dart gun (thumbing the Safety on again) and pulls his Berretta, trying to move around the side so he can get a clear shot, while staying behind cover.
'I hate it when they don't play along..'

What's with these special forces guys? Always action. Never inaction. And definitely no patience. Sigh. "We need a confirm on the downed man!" Evac makes his move and heads towards the depression to the right. He'll trust the cover fire of his compadres and the natural cover offered by the trees to make his way there. Hopefully, he'll be able to head further past and offer a more flanking position. After all, the trees can't offer him cover in all directions.

Round One
Plan Bonus: +2

21 - Unknown #1
20 - Blaster
16 - Evac
16 - Shadow Wolf
14 - Wraith
14 - Unknown #2
8 - Zeus
6 - Silent Snake
#1 leans around the edge of the tree and fires off a stream of lead at where he thought he saw something before. It's not quite on target, but he does manage to catch Wraith within the area of his autofire. Reflex save DC 15...roll 7 plus 7 save bonus plus 3 cover...saved by the cover! #1 then grabs something off of his equipment harness and holds it up to his face.
Blaster is still guarding the flank, and doesn't Spot anything this round.
Evac hefts his massive weapon and makes a break for the depression. The jungle is pretty thick though, and it'll take three more rounds of running to make it there. Of course it might be that long before anyone manages to get hit...
With a curse Shadow Wolf brings her rifle up and takes a shot without sighting through her scope first (-1 penalty since the M82A2 doesn't have iron sights). Still, she manages to just clip him on the shoulder - and the massive .50 round takes it's toll! (14 damage) Magazine = 10
Seeing the target lurch to the side away from the tree a bit (he would've maintained 3/4 cover had Shadow Wolf not...'bumped' him) Wraith takes his shot. But again the shot is wide. Magazine = 18.
# 2 convulses some more
Zeus holsters his dart gun and draws his pistol (two move actions) and gets ready to move around the flank with Evac.
Snake decides to keep an eye out as well.
Go for Round Two. Maps will be updated shortly (just Evac moving though).

Her dark eyes narrowed behind the mask of the Ghille suit. Kai continues to fire while moving closer, until she is able to confirm complete elimination of the target. Nothing is more annoying for a sniper than not having time to sight properly and the target not dying with one shot.
Charlie, why do they insist on being so annoying...?
