Oh crap! ZEONQUEST!

>>7522623
FUCK YEAH! ZEONQUEST!

YES!! ON TIME!!

Your current squad is a three man team consisting of:

You, Lieutenant David Lister.
Piloting: MS-06F2 Zaku II (Modified with Head Vulcans)

Your long standing Wingman, Zolomon Ringo.
Piloting: MS-07B (Zolomon Custom)

And, what SHOULD be Elaine "Ruubens" Arronax, but is instead... Garma Zabi.

Piloting: MS-06F2 Zaku II (with added head vulcans)

>a giant drill battleship
>giant drill battleship
>GIANT FUCKING DRILL BATTLESHIP
Seriously, feddies? Are you going to mine us to death? Another land battleship? Do you remember what happened to the last one?

>>7522665

Actually, they've been using it to travel undetected deep into enemy territory, disgorge a load of planes and tanks, and nearly managed to kill Garma by ambushing his Gaw.

So, on the whole, it's not done too badly.

Those feddies lucky it's Garma there.

And by capturing it we will be able to attack Jaburo from 3 directions, Meaning they get hoist by their own petard.

>>7522724

Nah, it needs to be exploded. We've gone a whole two days without a mushroom cloud, any longer and we'll get withdrawal symptoms.

wait....
>a giant drill battleship.
Is that Noah class battleship I'm thinking about?

Anyway, you and Zolomon have dismounted and have explained the sitation to Incognito and his band of merry men/hired killers.

His plan is as follows.

Your squad is to distract the enemy forces with a frontal attack. This is to cover the approach of his team as they infiltrate the drillship.
Once inside, they'll attempt to immobilise it, free the prisoners and arm them. Using them as troops to take the rest of the ship. Hopefully the traitorous Captain Kilroy will be aboard, and if he isn't, then hopefully there will still be some detail of his whereabouts.

It's a rough and ready plan to be sure, but it might just work.

>>7522758

Closer to the Ordinatus Priam from 40k actually. Big giant troop carrying boring vessel.

>>7522781
Ask mr. Incognito how many forces and MS feddies have there?

>>7522781
So their plan is for our tiny squad to make a head on attack against ahardened target that dwarfs our firepower, in the hope that they can infiltrate and succeed at a highly perilous boarding action using an unknown number of pows that are in uncertain combat condition?
Can I be the first one to note that this is damn near suicidal?

>>7522806

It's impossible to say, with a bit of luck, they attacked the Gaws with their full air complement, which at best should leave about a wing or two of planes to deal with.

The real problem may be the tanks, we know that several of them are AA platforms, largely useless against Mobile Suits, but is that all they have?

>>7522839

You haven't read the other threads, have you? This is another weekday for Lister and Zolomon. The only complication is Garma, since we have to guard him too, but without Incog realising who he is.

>>7522839

Remember the Theorem of Narrative Casuality?

One-in-a-million chances always work.

However we should put Garma in the rear and tell him to keep watch if enemy reinforces arrive from behind.

>>7522839

The Drillship is completely unarmed, you'd only have to deal with whatever it's carrying.

After taking out a Heavy Fork and several Big Trays, this should be easy pickings, so long as we don't get the stupids and try to jump the drill.

What is current condition of our suits?

cant belive i nearly forgot about zeon quest!

also, my photoshops are so cheep.

Oh snap! Zeonquest!

>>7522932

Unharmed and fully locked and loaded.

here's a map of the area for you all.

>>7522968

Well, mine are hardly great works themselves...

Well, all aside from one...

>>7522871
OHHHHHHH.
Well, hell, let's get cracking then.

>>7523001

I don't see any obvious cover on that map, which is a problem for keeping VIPs alive.

We need to make our own cover. I say we assault on of the outbuildings, clear the surrounding are of enemies, and use it as a strongpoint for the rest of the assault, where Garma can cover us from.

Also, we need a firing line on the runway, to prefer any of their heavier aircraft from taking off.

>>7523095
All their airpower is probably based in the landship itself. I think in the last thread GM said the runways were mostly demolished.

>>7523152
We should try to destroy the catapults/Launchpads then, If we steal it we can repair those, and destroying them would mean the enemy would have a harder time to launch.

>>7523194
Agreed, though this may be up to Incognito. We may not have enough manpower to crew it as of now, or anyone who knows enough about Big Trays to get it working in the first place.

>>7523194

And the tanks?

>>7523257

thats what giant robots are for, surely?

>Also, we need a firing line on the runway, to prefer any of their heavier aircraft from taking off.

Okay, shall we go with this plan? Use some of the buildings as cover and draw attention to yourself whilst your specialist infiltrate the drillship.

You outline the plan with Incognito, who (along with the rest of his squad) is changing into a federation uniform.

"Sounds good, give us a five minute head start to get on board and then begin your assault."

Any additional plans?

You set yourself up on the northeast approach, you move with a wide distance to prevent you from being detected. Garma managed to keep up without being detected.

You carefully take aim at your first targets, and wait for the timer to tick down.

Five minutes later you open fire.

The first set of explosions gut the disused conning tower and the three of you leap inside the cored building, using it as ad-hoc cover. From the direction of the hangers you can hear sirens. A couple of infantry attempt to plink you with Anti-Armour rockets, but you spot them quick enough and dispatch them with your head-vulcans.

The front doors of the hangars burst open in flames and debris as Tanks, unwilling to wait for the doors to open, shoot their way out, or simply plow on through.
150mm shells begin to fall around you. You make about 10 tanks heading towards you.

YOUR ORDERS?

>>7523909
Spread out to avoid their fire and take them out with more 90mm shellfire.

rolled 3 = 3

>>7523909
cracker grenade... use one... at the same time have garma give us cover fire while Zoloman gose head first with his heat hawks

>>7523909
This cover won't last long once those 150mm shells start hitting.

Open fire and have the squad fan out behind different buildings to split their fire, make sure to coordinate to concentrate fire on high value targets; command tanks et al..

rip up there shit. i presume were not underground? might be sensble to get up close, where we have the advantage by virtue of having close combat wepones.

>>7523909
Have Zolomon charge into close combat to distract them while we guard Garma under the pretense of both of us offering covering fire for Zolomon's charge.

>>7523960
>>7523932
Combine these two. Throw a grenade at them while they're still clustered together as they exit the hanger. Then order everyone to fan out and start picking targets.

>>7523909

If we get into the hangar we can use the Drill as a shield, They should be relucant to fire if they might accidentely hit the ship... On the other hand the infiltation team is probably entering it now.

So i guess we should do >>7523964

If we can take out their command units we will break what little organization they have.

>>7524030
Actually, we have panzerfausts now, don't we? Shoot one into the hanger itself. Odds are if it's a motor pool there has to be something combustible in there.

The cracker grenade definitely sounds like a good move.

>>7523932

You order Garma to stay behind the obstruction and cover you whilst you and Zolomon flank them from opposite directions.

You and Zol leap out as Garma sprays the area with 90mm shells. You dash to the left firing off your own rifle and the GL whilst Zolomon dashes rights peppering the tanks with his triple 35mm and occaisional bursts from his rifle.
The tanks begin launching smoke obscuring them from your sight.

And keep advancing. Watch your spacing though, leapfrog forward covering Zolomon and having him cover you.

Remember to keep Garma in the rear though.

>>7524135
he can take a hit or two, he could use the experience i mean were only fighting tanks... let him go wild... it will be one hell of a distraction

>>7524149
Better safe than sorry - he's having a ball shooting things up, but he IS our charge. And who knows what could be waiting after these tanks.

I love your threads, I'm sorry I cannot contribute, because I am still catching up on past threads.

>>7524104
>>7524119

You hurl a cracker into the smoke and whilst you can't be sure if you kill anyone, the shooting at Garma largely stops.

You approach the hangar, when you narrowly manage to miss adittional fire, coming in at you on a parabolic arc. There must be additional tanks that have deployed behind the hangar, and are firing at you over it.
Risky, and their accuracy sucks, but it's still effective in keeping you away.

For now.

YOUR ORDERS?

rolled 3 = 3

>>7524175
true but at the same time... he can handle himself and he needs the experience... if he can't handle tanks with our training then hes doomed regardless

Charge into hanger, perform OH YEAH attack upon reaching back wall.

>>7524197
throw a smoke grenade and have zol charge the fuckers

>>7524201
A few lucky tank shots can take down pretty much any zaku, though Garma does have plot armor pre-char if we're to meta-game.

>>7524210

Closing with the tanks works. Do we have different scan settings in the monoeye? Employ thermal optics if possible and fire through the wall at the tanks.

Or have us or Zolomon charge while the other jumps over the hanger and behind the tanks.

>>7524214

Smoke would put US at a disadvantage, Not them.

I say we do the "OH YEAH" plan.

>>7524235
this... and i figured we could use thremal to spot them in the smoke

>>7524210
>>7524235
Combine them! Simultaneous DEATH FROM ABOVE and OH YEAH

>>7524231

Pretty sure he doesn´t have that much Plot Armor, I think that yes he will be hard to kill of unless we do it on purpose, But seeing how this is essentially a escort mission so the enemies WILL probably kill Garma unless we keep a eye on him.

Have zol go around one side of the hanger while Garma and Lister do the OH YEAH manuever.

Get zol to distract them while we flank spectacularly basically.

>>7524306
My reasoning for this being, just barging through the hanger the tanks are shelling over makes it reasonably easy for them to depress the elevation of their guns and turn our zakus into scrap coffins (given enough numbers).
While if Zol flanks them they're forced to reorient, which then allows us to surprise flank excellently.

rolled 6 = 6

>>7524370
seconded

>>7524296
Now is still probably the best opportunity for Garma to put what we've been teaching him to good use.

Flank around the hangar, Zol one side, Us the other.

rolled 6 = 6

>>7524385
he needs this to get better... this is his training grounds, he needs this to improve

I hope for more Ruby as Garma omake

>>7524422

"i didnt mean to. i mean, i just signed what they put in frount of me..."

>>7524422
>>7524437

I also hope for more Omake/Subplot.

Im pretty interested in how the team will handle it without us around, It is also a pretty good character development opportunity.

>>7524437
I'm wondering at what sort of Icelina related hilarity could ensue (in true animoo fashion)

Back from dinner, and watching the Baltimore Ravens beat the Patriots like a goddamn drum.

I mean goddamn, it was like 24-0 at the end of the first quarter. God bless you sky sports live.

Anyway, for those of you supporting the OH YEAH maneouver, I would remind you that that's the hanger with the GODDAMN GIANT DRILL MACHINE inside. Heck, it'd probably be a bad idea to even walk past that particular side of the hanger at all.

>>7524562
It's unarmed and (supposedly) immoble. I'm not seeing the issue unless there's VTOL's or something wishing to say hi.

>>7524562

Well we have to stop those tanks somehow. The only other option is to head out onto the runway, and going onto open ground doesn't sound like the best plan.

>>7524562
Can that targeting computer we've currently got turned off calculate a parabolic arc that we can use to return fire at a much higher rate?

>>7524562
Can the structure support the weight of one of our Zakus?

>It's unarmed and (supposedly) immoble.
>supposedly
>supposedly

It's got a giant forty meter diameter drill. You REALLY want to take the chance?

>Well we have to stop those tanks somehow. The only other option is to head out onto the runway, and going onto open ground doesn't sound like the best plan.

Going OVER the hangar like some people suggested would be a lot safer. The tanks are firing blind on a parabolic arch, so the faster you move forward the better.
Garma might need to be given some orders though, don't want him getting shelled.

>>7524663
>It's got a giant forty meter diameter drill. You REALLY want to take the chance?

I was going to point out how slow it must move. Then I remembered this is Gundam physics.

We should still go for a two pronged attack though, simply going over the top presents us as massive targets.

>>7524653

Probably one or two. It wouldn't make a stable firing platform, but if you cushion your landing with your thrusters right and you push off pretty quick then it looks like it might hold your weight.

>>7524663
If the structure can support the weight of one or two Zakus (which would be impressive), then lets jump onto it and use the steady high-ground to shoot the lower and then exposed tanks. If it can't support us, then lets jump over it altogether, and while landing start shooting the 240mm Bazooka at the tank mass. Garma should come with us, since its safer to hang with us than stay put and get the explosive hail dropped on his head.

>>7524663
Get garma to jump over the hanger while we flank. I mean Feddie tanks can only fire upwards so many degrees unless they're AA versions, and those are likely to be smaller caliber. This is Garma's big chance to man up.

>>7524716

>We should still go for a two pronged attack though, simply going over the top presents us as massive targets.

Okay, how about the following plan. You go over the top, Zolomon goes round the side and you flank them that way?

Sound okay?

>>7524719
And use it as a springboard. Well then, that's interesting...

Lets get ol' Zol to do that - he can use the structure as a springboard to get some extra lift over the tanks - Garma and us can jet over the structure itself and fire on the way down. Keep him near us and behind the major combat.

>>7524747
sounds like a plan

>>7524754
this

>>7524747
Let's get some more tank kills.

>>7524754

You bark out orders to your wingmen.

"Gypsy to Crow, use the hangar roof as a firing platform to cover me, I'm going to make a leaping assault on the enemy forces! Tom Servo, move up and follow my lead! Watch out for enemy reinforcements."

"Roger!"
"Roger!"

You gun your jet's and leap over the hangar, 150mm shells still craze past your suit as you can now spot the tanks, their twin barrells angling at near vertical angles, the begin depressing to get a better angle, when Zolomon's Gouf begins firing at them, distracting them and taking one out.
You begin firing with your Bazooka, clipping one tank and flipping it over.

Behind you, you hear a crashing sound and Zolomon's cry of suprise. You don't have time to worry about that as you land in the middle of the remaining tanks.

Your head vulcans spang of a nearby tank, forcing it to relocate and miss with it's shot, you dodge to the side to avoid another but the recoil from your return shot puts you off balance for a second and you stumble into a pair of 150mm shots.
Your cockpit shakes from the impact, but the computer reports that the shots failed to pierce the armour.

A spray of 90mm shots shred a tank as Garma arrives to back you up, and you take out another tank with your Bazooka, thrusting along with the recoil, flying backwards, putting more space between you and the remaining tank.

You get it's attention with your head vulcans, which allows Garma to finish it with his Heat Hawk.

Your bazooka and rifle need reloading. Garma is currently reloading his 90mm.

YOUR ORDERS?

>>7524944
Reload, and get a status report from Zolomon.

>>7524944
Throw a grenade to cover our reloading

>>7524944
Find out what's going on with Zol while you reload and mop up. Be ready to lend aid to him.

>>7524944

>>7524944

( also, near vertical? are these Type61s? if thay are - they got upgrades)

>>7522614
All I can think of is the kurogane from SRW: OG and thinking of that makes me go zeon is fucking screwed because they are going to get CLEAVED

>>7524991
Not really happy about their new upgrades either. This'll change things quite a bit.

Zolomon went through the roof, didn't he?

Sigh.

Head back up there to look for him once we've reloaded.

>>7525039
I was expecting him to use the roof as a platform to leap even higher, not use it as a base of fire support. Well then, lets go get him...

>>7525039

ill second this. tho to be fair, a giant robot standing on the roof was never going to do it any good...

>>7524944

"Gypsy to Crow! Report!"

"Crow to Gypsy, my current status is: YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAW!"

At this point a giant drillship bursts out of the side of the hangar, it drill whirling, whilst being ridden by Zolomon's Gouf.

"...he just HAS to upstage me, every time. He does this every time." you grumble.

"I went to school with Char Aznable. I know EXACTLY how you feel." Garma say's to your side.

At which point there is a tremendous BANG as the side hovercushion explodes and ruptures, the whole vehicle tilts to the side violently, with a spray of sparks on the cracked concrete and Zolomon is thrown off.

He manages to land on his feet, and then starts running away from the rolling vehicle as it begins to roll over towards him.

"CRAP CRAP CRAP" he eloquently supplies.

He marginally outruns the vehicle before it reaches the other, still inflated side of cushions before stopping.

"So. Your reason for not jumping, or dodging to the side was?"

There is an embarrased pause from Zolomon.

"...CRAP!"

YOUR ORDERS?

It wont be that hard, Kansas is right in the middle of Zeon territory.

>check how incog is getting along, and any news on POWs, and any incoming enemies?

You can't raise him on the comms. Otherwise, scopes are clear, and since you've been running heavier Air Patrols over this area after the attack any enemy air power coming to relieve them seems unlikely.

>minovsky density?

Same as normal for this area. Maybe slightly heavier, but that's probably just the southerly wind.

>clarify if Zolomon has made the battleship about ot explode.

It's impossible to say. It doesn't LOOK like it's about to blow up.

I can see that happening in G Gundam, but probably not a UC Gundam show.

You get another message from Incgonito.

"I've gotten message to the survivng POW's, the crash has made it impossible for them to get to the tank bays, they've diverted to the hangers instead. Except their trapped, several doors have entered emergency lockdown and need to be unsealed from the outside."

"From the outside? Shouldn't that be the other way around?"

"Sort of, they need engineering tools to open the door, which they can't get, to open the doors. The APC however still has a spare engineering kit in it, get that and bust our people out. I think we've got a handle on Captain Kilroy, but if he's snuck in with the survivors, don't say anything or cause a scene. Just make sure he doesn't get the chance to rabbit, odds are he's just going to try and reintergrate himself into the chain of command. If he suspects anything however, he may try to run."

YOUR ORDERS?

Think about how Rubbens is doing, hope for naked psychedelic mindscape.

>>7526146

Have garma and Zol begin partoling the area then do as Incognito suggested.

>>7526146
well lets get the tools and get busy, get zolo to stay outside and cover us, but i think garma should come with us - dirty work and all...

>>7526146
>>7526207
Pretty straightforward - what they said...

Tell Garma to stay in his Zaku and hide to watch out for more enemies while you and Zol head deeper into the ship. Don't forget to bring automatic weapons.

>>7526233

You have Garma cover you from his Zaku whilst you and Zolomon get the kit out of the APC and then you remount and step over to the hangar bay, using the Zaku's hands as a bridge you and Zolomon step into the sideways facing hangar.

Inside the hangar are the broken remains of a couple of saberfish, some fly mantas and what looks to have once been a squadron of FanFans.

The doors appear to be at the back, elevated about two meters on the side. You think you can see a couple of empty barrells you could use to get up there.

YOUR ORDERS?

>>7526549
Can the barrels support both of our weights?

>>7526549
Can we ask Garma to push the vehicles into a sort of ramp to get up there?

how deep can our suits hands go? if they can go inside, it might provide beter suport then the barrals...

>>7526606
or just use a zaku's fist and a tunnelling device.......

>>7526598

No, it's too far in and Garma would have to push your Zaku out of the way first.

>>7526577

Looks like, but you've not had the best results with those sort of guesses today.

>>7526549
Stack barrels. have the least technical of us hold them steady while the other stands up to open the door.

i think should blouw up a wall or something
just a feeling

>>7526675
this

>>7526675

You stack up a tower of barrells and other detritus so you can mount up and get at the door.
Arc Welder and Crowbar in hand, you set about opening up the maintenance hatch and cutting off the emergency lock bolts.

>>7526782
that's an awesome haro

You finish cutting through the bolts and the doors swing open.

You carefull take a peek around the corner.

There is a short corridor about 8 meters long, what would have been an intersection is now a troublesome pit, two meters wide. Crossing it will be difficult, especially if the surivors have wounded.

You can hear banging from locked emergency door at the end of the corridor.

YOUR ORDERS?

>>7526968
any way we can used crap lying around to make a bridge?
.

>>7526968
Let whoever is behind the door know who you are and what you are trying to do - get Zoloman up there with you and open the door.

Gentlemen, the livestream has been fixed. Now, it should run with higher sound quality too.

/zeonquest/old for the newbies.

Lets try the gundam movie I one more time.

>>7527024
And I totally forgot about the pit.

>>7527022

Possibly, but it might not be stable. Maybe you could weld something together?

>>7527146
well i was thinking the barrels... or if we could hack off s wing tip and drag it in here, a fanfan wing might make a nice bridge

>>7527163
I seriously doubt the two of us could haul an entire wing across the hanger, up the barrels, and through the doors. Gather what we can and start welding into something at least halfway respectable.

>>7526907

when big haro is mass prodused...

>>7526968

is zoloman inside with us. tell the people to stand back, cut the doors open, and have zoloman cover us

>>7527217
why i said wingtip :P its flat metal, we have tools

>>7526968
Can we use a piece of flattened scrap metal to form a bridge?

>>7527287
Crap, nevermind, I am slow tonight.

I'm confused, why do we have to climb? I thought the Drill only tipped a little on it's side; was it more like 70-80 degrees instead of the 20-30 that I had imagined?

>>7527287

You bring out your radio and try to signal whoever's on the other side.

"This is Lt. Lister, to Zeon survivors. That you on the other side of starboard hanger deck door?"

"Confirmed! Boy are we glad to hear you!"

"Roger that survivors. We are trying to get to you, but there's an obstruction, we're trying to put together a bridge from scrap. Hang tight."

"Please hurry! We have wounded!"

You begin collecting large scrap pieces and welding them together. After about twenty minutes you have a bridge that looks stable enough.

You are able to cross it without too much trouble and reach the door.

You pull out your tools again and begin opening this door.

NOTE: YOUR ARC WELDER HAS LIMITED FUEL, YOU CAN ONLY PERFORM A LIMITED NUMBER OF ADDITIONAL TASKS WITH THE WELDER.

YOUR ODERS?

>>7527439
get these guys over one at a time, have zol help the wounded across and outside, while we head further in, and have zol follow back in after us, after the survivors has escaped

>>7527439
Can we simply burn through the hinges of the door? Or does it descend from the ceiling or shut from the side with no hinges?

>>7527513
Can't the non-wounded walk by themselves?

>>7527564
s'why i said wounded O_o one person at a time cause our bridge is welded scrap metal.....

>>7527604
Ohhh, I see. When you said to get them over one person at a time, I thought you meant to carry them one at a time. Sorry about that.

>>7527564

Sure.

Once the door opens up, a steady stream of bruised and stumbling men in Zeonic uniforms begin shuffling past, you see people with broken arms and two people carrying another in a stretcher. Evidently a medical bay must have been on their way. It would also account for all of the bandages, slings, splints and crutches.
Also an armory as several of them are armed, luckily you recognise a couple of people, so you can be fairly sure that these are your guys.

Behind them you see darkness, smoke and flames.

YOUR ORDERS?

>>7527642
Make sure to confirm that all the wounded are out and that there are no stragglers, then do a check of the smoky room to make sure.

>>7527634
is all good, im actually alittle drunk so i may have worded it like shit

>>7527642
make a note of wether kilroy is among them

WHY THE FUCK AM I ALWAYS SO LATE!!!!

>>7527642

see whats back there. but quickly. fires arnt conjutive to helth.

>>7527642

Start asking around in a worried sort of way-
"Captain? Captain, are you there? Has anyone seen Captain Kilroy? Are any of the GAW crew missing? Has everyone survived?"

Shows those who don't know about the betrayal we care, shows those who do know that they haven't been outed just yet.

Make sure everyone's there ask for the crew

>>7527732

Ask for the CO's, identify your man and tell him to make sure that all of his people are getting on our transports. Basically act normal and keep the dude we want occupied.

>>7527732
This.

>>7527651
>Make sure to confirm that all the wounded are out and that there are no stragglers, then do a check of the smoky room to make sure.

You check with one of the last to come through if this is everyone. He nods.

>Start asking around in a worried sort of way-
>"Captain? Captain, are you there? Has anyone seen Captain Kilroy? Are any of the GAW crew missing? Has everyone survived?"

You ask the straggler about Captain Kilroy.

"We don't know where he is! He was taken away when we were captured. Were afraid he's been taken away and been tortured! The guys who rescued us said they were going to look for him. I hope he's okay."

You pat him on the back and he walks over the bridge to the rest of his comrades.

>>7527841
Inform our spy friend that the target is not there.

Are there any Feddies left outside? If we aren't going to have to mount back up and start fighting people off, let's search this ship for useful information. Tell Incognito that Kilroy wasn't here, and that we can help his people loot the drillship for intel if he tells us where he hasn't searched yet.

>>7527841

Do we know what captain Kilroy looks like? Maybe have Zolo and Garma watch over these folks and head further in ourselves.

Oi, and where is Incognito and his squad of badass terrorist/spies/commandos?

Alright. I assume we brought our weapons with us.

Have the prisoners leave the ship and take position in a secure area. The APC if there's enough room. Tom Servo covers the area.

We need to radio Incognito. I still don't completely trust him, which makes sense, him being such a MYSTERIOUS FIGURE and a hardass killer.

We need to take our weapons, us, and any Zeon prisoners with weapons who are willing to accompany us, and head deeper into the ship.

>>7528112
This.

>>7527841
We've checked that Incognito isn't just Char in Sunglasses right? Because that sounds like the kind of name Char would use for a disguise, and he can get like a million personas out of just a pair of sunglasses.

>>7528112
onwards comrades!!! we must take the fight to the feddie pigs!

SIEG ZEON!!!

>>7528112
>>7528127
Thirded. Our target was obviously been taken away for debriefing long before we got here, but we did catch the Feds with their pants down, and whatever's left in the drillship that wasn't destroyed by Zol's playdate with it could be of some use.

>>7528138
We'd better not let him get Ruuben's mustache, or he could literally become any random person on the street.

>Are there any Feddies left outside? If we aren't going to have to mount back up and start fighting people off, let's search this ship for useful information. Tell Incognito that Kilroy wasn't here, and that we can help his people loot the drillship for intel if he tells us where he hasn't searched yet.

You signal Incognito again.

"I've got the POW's, no sign of Captain Kilroy here."

"Don't worry, we've found him and were moving to make our way out through the tank bay with jet packs. It's going to be a hot exit so make sure that we've go you peering overhead with covering fire from your Head Vulcans!"

YOUR ORDERS?

>Tell Incognito that Kilroy wasn't here

...Ok, I got the joke now. Shall we rip open some walls looking for him?

>>7528138
That would majorly contridict the timeline, moreso then what little we've done so far. Remember, right now Char is a hotshot MS pilot up in space, digging around for dirt on Project V.

Though yeah, it does sound like a name he would use. For all his mad skillz, his aliases were god awful.

>>7528173
back to the ZAKUS... get ready to give those feddie bastards hell!

>>7528198
The Flanagan Institute is just starting up, though, and Char never did miss an opportunity to pick up underaged Newtype girls. So he may be on "vacation".

>>7528173

Back to the Zakus, double-time. Fill Garma in, 25 words or less.

Fingers ready on the Vulcan triggers.

Try not to step on the PoWs.

>>7528225
This.

Also, where on a Big Tray is the reactor usually located? We may want to use our Zaku to manually remove it and prevent any self-destruct shenanigans.

>>7528173
Well, let's get out and ready to provide cover fire. Garma's been outside helping the POWs into the APC and generally getting them to safety, right?

>>7528265

Hopefully without being recognized.

Althogh the morale implications from Garma showing up as a knight in shining armour to save them cold be interesting.

>>7528173
Only one thing to do now - evac in a blaze of glory.

>>7528287
He's wearing Ruubens' mustache.

>>7528321
More to the point, he's still in a full normal suit, which he may also have stolen from her. Which raises some interesting implications.

>>7528321
IT IS A FOOLPROOF DISGUISE. EVEN INCOGNITO DIDN'T NOTICE. YOU THINK GARMA HAS NICE HAIR? ELAINE'S CAN PROVIDE INSTANT DISGUISE.

>>7528220
That reminds me, is there any way we can get involved in Flanagan and get any newtype girls ourselv- I mean, further the goals of newtype understanding. Yeah, that's it.

>>7528383

Incognito didn't /see/ him in person this mission. Either de to full-face obscring helmet, or us telling Garma to stay the fuck inside the cockpit.

>>7528393

David Lister's noble goal of banging Ruubens and Kycilla at the same time is insufficient for you? Heathen!

>>7528434
Given that Flanagan is Kycillia's personal thing, going there would be a step towards furthering that ambition.

>>7528434
The eyes of monogamous relationships do not look fondly upon this plan.

>>7528393
>That reminds me, is there any way we can get involved in Flanagan and get any newtype girls ourselv- I mean, further the goals of newtype understanding. Yeah, that's it

Yes. But you'd have to be in space first. The Flanagan institute is on Grenada, on the moon after all.

You move back across the bridge. As Zolomon does so however it creaks ominously, and then collapses.

"Whoa!" howls Zolomon as he falls through an metal frame for the second time tonight.

You lean over to see if he's okay. You see him hanging on to an open doorframe by one hand. He manages to get a better grip and hoist himself up.

"You okay man?"

"Yeah!"

The open doorway is 4 meters down, there are no visible handholds on this side of the wall that Zolomon could use to climb. There is a hand rail on the other side, however this is a two meter, risky, jump.

YOUR ORDERS?

>The open doorway is 4 meters down, there are no visible handholds on this side of the wall that Zolomon could use to climb. There is a hand rail on the other side, however this is a two meter, risky, jump.

DO IT.

Then realise that us going down to join him does not help in the slightest.

>>7528585
Two meters is only about 7 feet, is we get a running start we should be able to make it.

>>7528585

Hm. Was there any rope back where we got the stuff for the bridge? Even some steel cabling would work.

>>7528652
>>7528601
DOIT

>>7528655

Also call Garma on the radio - we'll be busy freeing Zol, so he's going to need to give Incognito covering fire.

He should be happy - this is his chance to man up and do some solo work.

Have Garma move around and deflate the other side of the hoverskirt.

>>7528652

I actually meant for him to jump and climb up.

>>7528655

You scan the immiediate area, no sign of rope, but you do notice a firehose. You smash the glass with your Crowbar and spool it down.
Zolomon quickly shimmies up.

You radio Garma as you make your way out.

"This is Gypsy to Tom Servo, switch positions to cover the Tank Bays, we've got incoming friendlies who might need covering with your head vulcans. Were on our way back now!"

"Roger!"

You dash back and quickly remount. Behind you, you hear the sound of 25mm Vulcans firing.
As the Zaku boots back up you get a priority comm over the radio from incognito.

"Were clear! Tell everyone to get to a clear distance, we've quenched the reactor, but the crew have activated the secondary Self Destruct charges, and we don't know how big of a bang that's going to make."

YOUR ORDERS?

>>7528829
jump jet the hell away

>>7528829
Get everybody out. Have our suits shield the POWs and Coggy's team from falling debris.

Don't let the crew steal your kill! Heat hawk to the bridge, POW.

>>7528829

Get clear, but keep us between the PoWs and the exploding ship. They're a lot more squishy than us, and the Zaku's armour can probably handle the blast at a decent distance.

(Though be careful we don't get knocked over and fall on their trucks.)

>>7528829
Run the fuck away er, withdraw a good distance away.

Can we carry the drill off with our Zakus? It would be a shame to loose something that's capable of breaking the most basic laws of the known universe while operating.

>>7528895

You quickly tells the POW's milling about your feet that the thing is about to blow, and you and Zolomon attempt to scoop up as many as you can and run off. Between the two of you, you manage to mount all of them in twenty seconds.

You quickly stomp off, using what's left of the hangar for cover. Behind you, you hear explosions that wrack the federation vehicle.

A few minutes later, they stop and you poke your head around to see what's left (after putting down the POWs of course.) The shell and frame appears intact, but smoke and flame billow from every orifice, it appears gutted.

It didn't go up in a mushroom cloud, but still, it was some very impressive fireworks.

>>7528939
Nonono, this actually is a drill. It isn't a spiral, so it's just stupendously awesome. We could mount it on the front of a musai. Gogo Kurogane

Get in our suit, cover everyone until they get going, get the fuck out ourselves.

Make sure Zolomon covers Garma on the escape.

We'd better get medals for this shit.

>>7528829
secondary self destruct.......
.
i feel like something fishy is going on. what's incogito been REALLY doing in this thing all this time.....//conspiracies!!\\

>>7528967

Call Incognito. Sit rep. Let him know the PoWs are all okay. Find out what we plan to do from here.

The drill landship is gone?!


FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

>>7528829
Tell Zoloman and Garma to grab some APCs and jump the hell out of there!

Do the same, and tell the APC crews and the POWs to hold on tight.

>"Were clear! Tell everyone to get to a clear distance, we've quenched the reactor, but the crew have activated the secondary Self Destruct charges, and we don't know how big of a bang that's going to make."

Aw, shucks. I was hoping for feddie papers. I do love when we get to fuck with continuity and especially when we get to make Zeon that much better morally and technologically. Oh, and knowing more setting background after we've earned it is cool too. Makes me feel like we've really achieved something.

Well, I suppose we'd best get out, then, and get back to our Dom to provide cover for that awesome which is Incognito. Oi, and pick up any papers we find along the way there as well.

>>7529038
NEBERMIND.

About ten minutes later, a hovering Incognito and his now much reduced team hovers in and drops off Captain Kilroy into the APC, away from the prying eyes of his former crew.
Presumably the idea is to pretend that he died in the explosion.

"Hm. Well, that was messy and only tangetially to plan, but we got a good result in the end. Nice job Davey on rescuing those POW's. Of course it's not all good, there's the name of this thing to worry about."

"The Name?" You ask.

"Yes. It's called the Morlock Subterranean Battlecarrier. Well, that's not the worrying part, the worrying part was that it's called the Morlock 02."

TO BE CONTINUED

Note: In the aftermath of this battle, the frame of the Morlock would be taken back to California for study, and would reduce the development time for the Marine MS designs intended for the Jaburo Attack by about a month. Good Job.

DOITDOITDOIT
Z'Goks for everyone!

>>7529074

YEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAH

*ahem*

Well, not so worrying in that we know we can blow it up. Our Bazooka is loaded for Ship.

>>7529074
FUCKYEA
.
.
also, remeber to slap cognito for calling us davey O_o

DON'T GO YET APOLOGIZED

WE NEED TO SEE INCOGNITO'S REACTION TO GARMA!

AND A RUUBENS PRETENDING TO BE GARMA OMAKE

>>7529074

Also, what's going on with Jo, Ruubens and their little disguise act right now? Anything interesting/amusing?

>>7529074
Also, Garma hopefully won't feel as much of a need to personally charge off after White Base and get his ass killed.

I think we can consider this some decent progress on our "man Garma the fuck up" plan.

Whoot!

>>7529132

I'm WAY to tired to be writing Omakes.

You can ask for the skinny when you get back to NY next week.

>>7529162

Fair enough then.

I'll just run through hilarious and stereotypical shenannigans in my head until then.

Also Elaine with Purple hair.

Well, since this is the end of this session.

Soon, we'll need to have a deep talk with Garma. We don't want to admonish him much, otherwise he'll see us as another stuffy type trying to rein him him. Instead, we need to educate him on how the truth of this war. Not to mention, ON HOW YOU HAVE TO BE CAREFUL WHO YOU CAN TRUST. We can use Kilroy as a jumping off point, but also remind him that there's likely another, if not more, spies within Zeon command. Not to mention any soldiers or officers.

And Incognito, too. I mean, we don't know where he gets his orders, presumably from someone high up, but everything he does is so shrouded in mystery, we can't be sure that he's working for Zeon's best interest. Not calling him a Feddie or anything, but you can't take anything you're given as truth. Can't accept facts as facts. Facts are only facts so long as they're truth. And the truth is different depending on how you see it.

DID I JUST BLOW YOUR MIND?

>>7529162
Get some rest - you've been running this all weekend. Its been pretty interesting to see.

>>7529074
>>7528967
>>7528829
Nooooo! We were gonna use it against Jaburo...

Another good quest Apoligized, I'm just sad I got in late. See you next week, hope you feel better.

So... when do we get to take part in an assault on Jaburo? :D

>>7529192
>DID I JUST BLOW YOUR MIND?
No. I've been playing Assassin's Creed 1 & 2 again.

"Nothing is true, everything is permitted." and all that.

>>7529188
>Also Elaine with Purple hair.

...

fapfapfap

>>7529193
Hey Supernova, HANA Quest still on tomorrow?

And is it just me or did the thread last night get deleted while we were still talking? I can't believe it was just normal falling to page 10.

How does it reduce development time for Marine MS?

>>7529447

Who cares? Mass Produced Hildas and Marine MSs at Jaburo?

HA!

All we need is Mass Produce Doms and then we won't have to worry bout no more gundams.

>>7529447

Pressure hulls, structural integrity, interal reinforcment, hull streamlining, lots of similarities between the two.

>>7529571
Also drills for forcing their way past Jaburo's armor layers. And other bits of gear for operating underground, particularly in terms of knowing where you are in relation to anything else.
