Mission 3, Day 1, Encounter 1, Round 36.
Cyrill drops to one knee as he nears the escape hole cut in the floor and turns to face the door to provide cover for Carl.
Carl shakes the tinderbox one last time before spraying the passage with flammable liquid adding to the already burning fuel that is there. He is pleased to see the flames flare up high (Will burn for another 3 rounds) and fill the corridor with flames but is dismayed when he sees numerous juvenile slicer worms pouring into the corridor beyond. He then turns and moves as fast as he can towards the exit but is stopped before he can get into the room by the other troopers waiting to descend.
Slicer worm #12 is dying.
Bishop steps forward and quickly drops through the open hole to the level below and take up cover in the south west corner.
Sarge yells at the troopers still upstairs, “Get you’re a$$es down here! Pronto!”, and moves to the access door to the life boats. Sarge gives the door an almighty boot with his powered boots, (Modified strength check of 17 + 4 (Str) = 21 vs DC 23, fail), but does nothing more but create noise.
Jonass responds to Mel, “There is a manual override, but it is slow… open that panel”, pointing to a panel close to the floor to the right of the door.
Jacob immediately bends down and pulls the panel open. Inside is a collapsible telescopic winch which extends with a crank. Jacob pulls it out and starts cranking the door up… but it is going slow…
Mel watches as the door slowly starts to slide upwards, currently there is enough room for an un-armoured person to possibly slide under.
The mature slicer worm seems unconcerned by the wall of flames as it slithers through the flaming liquid to get at the troopers, (Slicer worm #14 takes (REF save of 19 vs DC 18, half damage) 4hp damage).
Zane not wanting to be arachnid bait drops down the escape route created by Jacob and in one swift move slides under the slowly opening life boat access door.
Dave yells, “It’s almost on us!”, as he fires a round from his side arm, (Modified ranged attack roll of 2 + 1 (AB) + 1 (PB) = 4, a miss), but fearful of the huge creature fires wide. Dave then moves into the chamber ready to drop through the hole.
Squad actions please.
OCC: I am also going to be on vacation for two weeks starting next week… hopefully we can wrap up Mission 3 by the end of the week…

(I thought I was already down the hole, but the map still shows me up top so...)
Mel scrambles down to the lower level and takes a position next to the slowly raising door. She raises her Morita to cover the hole, waiting for Momma Worm to poke its snout through.
"Come on, marines! We are -leaving-!"

Carl will fire one more bust from the tinderbox towards the door, trying to buy more time. He then turns to the rest of the squad and shouts “Come on Marines lets move it, lets move it.”
He will wait at the top of the hole until everyone has jumped down and then if there are no further threats, jump down himself

Mission 3, Day 1, Encounter 1, Round 37. End of mission.
As the troopers battle to get the last obstacle from their escape path the mature slicer worm barrels down on them from above. Bishop and Jacob with a bit of team effort manage to open the life boat door enough for the armour troopers to slide under and the squad wastes no time in doing so. Once all the troopers had boarded the various life boats Sarge radioed Kate to blow a hole in the colonization ball as the life boats could not jettison otherwise. Moments after Kate had unleashed the full compliment of missiles into the side of the colonization ball the four life boats jettisoned into space narrowly missing being snared by the rapidly self sealing ball.
Once planet side the chancellor no doubt made it quite clear that Sarge was going to be court marshalled and the troopers would be brought before a disciplinary hearing for not following a direct order to leave the stricken TFT Songbird. However the media caught wind of the fact that a high ranking official was on the planet. Thereafter the media report became the usual bureaucratic lies with the chancellor being hailed as a heroin for placing herself in danger to save mothers and fathers onboard a stricken vessel besieged by the arachnids. Not only did she divert her craft to intercept the vessel in need but also single handily oversaw the successful evacuation of numerous survivors. With the sudden surge in attention the chancellor’s own royal guard were called in to take over the security detail from the Omega squad and like usual there was not even a “thank you” from the brass as the Omega’s were shuttled off back to Fomalhaut. At least they were going “home”.
The troopers all go enough xp to go up to level 6!
Squad will be on RnR for a little while.
OCC: I will post Mission 4 towards the end of the year and we can pick it up from there… thanks for the great year everyone… happy holidays!

Jacob searches a bit around the barracs after returning "home". "hey guys, what are ya'll doing moaping around the barracks? we have 2 weeks of leave, and i got a few fiths of vodka around here somewhere. anybody interested?" Jacob will ask somewhat retoricaly as he cracks one of the bottles open and takes a large pull off it.
