TIME TO GO SHOPPING LADS

> International Tankery League: Congratulations!

Hello, Gertrude Pool! We from the International Tankery League would like to say that you are now eligible for the Internation Tankery League World Cup! Although your first match did indeed end with a loss, consider it a valuable learning experience. Do not let it dispirit you, and instead hold your head up high.

Tankery is not about winning. It’s about feminity, growth, self-discipline, and the Way of the Tank!

So allow us to cordially invite to the ITL Tank Meet which will be held on September 28th and September 29th in Bovington Camp, England. Your Principal has already arranged for special airlifts from USS Macon and USS Akron, along with a personal aircraft to transport you and your crews where you will stay in a nearby hotel.

If you cannot attend, please inform us in advance.

Remember, keep moving forward!

>Mr. Mishka: Fresh new tanks!
Did we place an order to convert the musseum tanks to comp. spec? If not then we should do so asap

So we probably want to turn the Bergepanzer into a STUG and give that to the Navy girls.
Hooligans can get the Sentinel upgraded to ACIII version with the 25pndr, perhaps to be upgunned with the 17pndr at a later time. I don't trust them with the Panther.

Both of those have short, low-velocity guns. More upgrades would be in order immediately, if we want them to pierce anything better armoured at sane range.

What can I say? I’m a stickler for the rules.

> FUCK IT, DO EVERYTHING

You start typing up your email.

Hey Mr. Mishka, thanks for dropping an email!

I’d like for the Sentinel Tank to be restored as quick as you can. I’d also like for it be upgraded to a Sentinel AC III if at all possible.

The Bergepanzer III as well if you could convert it to a StuG, that’d be great.

Thanks for all of your hard work, Mr. Mishka!

- Gertrude

You yawn, now that that’s out of the way. What does Griselda have to say?


Hey Sis! Just dropping an email, letting you know we’re alright back in sunny DC! Dad’s actually got a raise in his job, which means MORE MONEY! HAHA! Of course, he’s still pressing me to keep volunteering at NOVA Tank Museum, which I don’t mind. Kinda wish it’d pay though.

Anyway, hope your Tankery Program is doing alright! That tank I sent might not be the best thing on the market, but it’ll be something alright!

Drop me an email okay?

It's legal, if my research is correct, the e1s were produced after june '45, and, according to the rules, tanks produced up until VJ day are allowed. Of course, these are *canon* rules, you could easily fluff something if you wished.

>>28677530
If it's canon, then those are the rules.

Hey, Griselda. The Tankery Program is going SWIMMINGLY. We sold off our T28/T95 GMC (Sorry about that, I know you’d want to see one in person.) But in return, we now have a Panzer IV and a Sentinel tank! I have no idea what the fuck a Sentinel tank is but I’m sure it’s something! Leagues better than the GMC hopefully! As for you, keep volunteering at the NOVA, I’m sure once you grow up, you’ll not only have a job there, you’ll own the place.

I just typed that and now I can’t stop laughing, I’m sorry.

Anyway, enough jokes, me and Kitten are doing fine here on Lafayette. Can’t wait to see you attend here!

- Gertrude


You stretch your arms upwards, letting the blood start to flow evenly as you begin fully waking up for the day. Kitten looks up at you and says, “Have a good night sleep?”

You nod, “Sure! I know that since you’re by my bedside, you’ll scare the boogeyman away, Kitten.”

Kitten simply rolls her eyes, but before she can return to her courses, a tap comes at your balcony door. You look over, and see who else but Ace Levy, apparently hanging off the edge. She smiles and waves.

You head out onto the balcony, confused. “Ace? What are you doing here?”

She shrugs. “Hanging out.”

“Boo,” says someone below her. You look down, and sure enough, you see Dizzy and Red holding her up, with the Chaffee being the final support on the ground floor.

Ace looks down. “Shut up, Red.”

Red says, “Bite me.”

Ace simply rolls her eyes. “How you doing, Gertrude?”

Also, we do even know what Griselda sent us? If we don't, when will we know?

>>28677724
I thought we already upgraded it to a mk.Iv a while ago

>>28677505
No, they're both upgrades to long 75s, the current IV we have is a short 75.

>>28677755
Yeah, but it hasn't been completed yet.

>>28677772
No, they are both short 75s. KwK40 L/43 would be the long gun.

>>28677724
The Black Prince, if I recall, is a tank based off the Churchill but not a direct upgrade of one.

But hey, since we can convert 38(t)s to Hetzers, no reason we can't upgrade our Churchills to Black Princes.

> Boast

“Oh, everything’s well and fine on our front, Ace!” You lean back on the edge of the balcony, crossing your arms. “We got more tanks, and we’re starting to recruit more crews. I think we’re really getting somewhere.”

Ace nods. “That’s awesome!” She snaps her finger. “However, that’s not why I’m here.”

“Why are you here?”

She quickly looks away from you, twiddling her thumbs together. “Uh… so you know, Eugene, right?”

You raise an eyebrow. “Yeah? What of it?” You hear Ace mutter something. “Sorry, what? I didn’t catch that.”

Dizzy says, “She wants you to set her and Ace up on a date for Homecoming.”

Ace sighs and looks down at Dizzy. “I can do these things myself you know!”

“Wait,” you say. “Why couldn’t you just call me?”

Ace spreads her arms apart bombastically. “Can’t we have a little heart to heart on this? Tank girl to tank girl? Will you do it for me? Please?”

We play matchmaker, we'll end up falling in love with our client's match. It won't end well, trust me. I've read/watched enough romcoms to know how this will turn out.

Nip this in the bud. Right fucking now. We can't risk this biting us in the ass come tournament season. We say yes, we're making a huge mistake.

Plus, y'know, we also got them wet panties for Eugene, which will only complicate matters even further and make this even *more* of a potential clusterfuck of betrayal, miscommunications, mixed signals, and broken hearts.

We're well on our way there as it is. Also that Homecoming thing which we'll go with him.
Set him up with someone else and we'll have an Ace owing us big time and the dude himself removed from premises.

“Sure, Ace. I can give Eugene a call or something when I get the time.” You snap your finger. “Or better yet, I can help you ask him out if that’s what you’re fancying.”

Ace claps her hands together. “Excellent!” She slaps your back. “This’ll be great! I’ll make sure to repay this, I swear!”

You giggle. “Oh, don’t worry about it, Ace. We girls gotta help each other, you know?”

Ace nods. “Speaking of girls, is that your friend, Kitten in there?” She points to Kitten, still doing her coursework. You and Ace wave to her, and she waves back.

“Yeah, why do you ask?”

Ace shrugs. “Oh, it’s just… you know.”

“… You think I’m gay don’t you?”

>>28677989

Red says, “Yes.”

Ace looks down at Red and says, “If you weren’t holding me up, I’d give you a few good licks, Red.” Ace looks back at you, matter-of-factly, and says, “Well you know, Gertrude, it’s just… so you aren’t gay?”

You shake your head. “No. Not at all.”

Dizzy says, “Maybe she’s bi.”

You sigh. “You know, I think we can leave the issue of sexuality out of this. All I want to do is play with my 30-ton war machines in an incredibly harmless environment for my and everyone else’s amusement.”

Ace nods. “Can’t argue with that.” She drops down onto the Chaffee, then looks up at you. “Take care, Gertrude.”

You wave goodbye. “See you, Ace.”

You walk back into your arm and lie back on the bed, groaning. You almost fall asleep until the Chaffee’s engine is started, then you hear it race out of the Sophomore dorms and fade off into the background.

Anyway. Time to get ready and plan for the day. You got the afternoon before tank practice so it might be worth it to get something done.

To me, this is setting off all sorts of alarm bells. Should be doing the same for you.

Sure, I might be mashing the panic button pretty damn hard, but goddammit, saying yes will end up biting us in the ass regardless of whether or not it turns out well for Ace and Eugene.

Let's go recruit the Otakus at long last

Wait we agreed to try and get Eugene to go with Ace, ....When he is already going with us?

jesus /tg/

>>28678007
Think of it this way, she said she'll pay us back for this, if he says no then nothing happens, if yes well there are plenty of other fish in the sea maybe he has friends.

>>28678024
According to him, it's a common trope in romance.
Girl has a friend. Another girl wants the first girl to set her up with the friend. After advertising this other girl and spending time with her friend, she herself starts falling for him. Cue catastrophic love triangle.

>>28678085
We can cancel ourselves.

>>28678082
I'll figure out how my commander fired our Leopard's main gun with his ass that one time before the Otakus join our team

>>28678085
We agreed to go as friends

>>28678085
It was a friend date anon. Admittedly having us set it up is kinda awkward but eh, other than that it's completely normal and unproblematic.

>>28678085
We're just asking for her.

>>28678082
The rest of us have agreed that we will recruit the Otakus sometime after we've recruited every last living thing on the ship.

Please leave it alone.

>>28678105
But... we control our character. We don't have to choose to engage in the catastrophic love-triangle.

And We go to separate school ships. We can literally never even see him again.

I don't understand.

>>28678132
No

>>28678006

>"I suddenly remembered my Charlemagne!": Recruit crews

>>28678024

Let's say that things between Ace and Eugene don't go so hot. Come tournament season time, Ace will be holding a grudge against us for sending her on an abortion of a date. Worse yet, we may end with *dating him ourselves* which will make Ace want our head.

Or, let's say that things heat up and suddenly we're playing third wheel as the girl who missed her chance at dating Mr. Right. Tournament season rolls around, we can't concentrate and our little flub will cost us a battle. One we *will* need to win to stay in.

I'm telling you, this will only end in disaster.

No.

>I'll figure out how my commander fired our Leopard's main gun with his ass that one time before the Otakus join our team

>>28678133
I know. I'm just relaying what I think he's thinking.
But we sure lost control of Gertrude that damned last thread. The bastard just swept her and Kitten off their feet.

>>28678146
I think you're reading too much into this.

If it doesn't work then it doesn't work. She can't blame us for that/

Anon pls, you're acting more delusional than the most delusional shipper in here (and that says a lot).

>>28678133
People are reading some weird-ass shit into things. Personally I believe this is GS's way of saying 'clearly you people can't be trusted to handle anything looking romantic based on all these arguments so here I'll basically give you unsubtle hints to leave it' with these last posts.

>>28678168
Their attracted to him sure but the choice was ours when we accepted.so we're still in control.

>>28678184
And I'd welcome this even as someone with a stake in things, rather have calm and cozy than more of these bitching arguments and stressful, not cozy at all threads with a chance of 'winning' at the end.

>>28678169

Maybe I am, but every alarm bell is ringing inside my gut saying that setting Ace up with Eugene is a Bad Idea(tm) of the first fucking order.

Then again, that's just me.

>>28678146
>things between Ace and Eugene don't go so hot
Not our fault.

>we may end with *dating him ourselves*
I trust we can pull out before this happens. Then again, last thread made me think we are indeed sailing towards the perfect storm.

>we're playing third wheel as the girl who missed her chance at dating Mr. Right
He's not "Mr. Right", and if they do heat up we can, as above mentioned, pull out, feel glad for her and have her owe us a giant favor.

>>28678168
That's not a good thing anon. One thing is IC shutting down a romance if you don't want it in your quest, which is fine, but the opposite and dictating this kind of character-reaction is stupid no matter what character it's towards.

>>28678160
wish I could explain it but basically it was a night fire training.
My heat vision equipment was failing and I was tinkering with that to get visual on the targets.
My commander had taken over controlls but he needed to fix something with his own sights.

So here's both of us working like lunatics to see and aim something both our hands occupied. To fire the gun you need at least one hand

suddenly gun goes off, our loader gets the crap scared out of him and we have pissed of sergeant major asking us wtf we were doing

to this day nobody knows what happened...

“Hey, Kitten, don’t be sad, but I’m setting up Eugene with Ace.”

Kitten mockingly frowns. “Oh, I’m sad now that I won’t be able to have lots of violent unprotected sex with him and then let him-“

“Okay, yeah, yeah.” You quickly dial Eugene’s phone number, and after a few seconds, he answers.

“Hey, Gertrude!”

“Eugene! Hi! What’s up?”

“Not much, just hanging out with a few friends of mine.” There’s some rustling in the background, but you can clearly hear Eugene say, “Everyone, say hello to Gertrude.”

“Hi, Gertrude!” says several boys at once, probably five or six.

“Anyway,” says Eugene. “What’s up with you?”

“Not much. Actually, you know, you said you didn’t have a date for Homecoming?”

“Sure did, I’m taking you and Kitten though.”

“Actually, you know Ace Levy?”

“Tankery Team Captain? Yeah, she has History and Moral Philosphy with me. Why?”

“Well… maybe you should ask her out? She might be interested.”

“Huh. Don’t think a girl like her would be interested in a guy like me.”

“Oh, you’d be surprised. Anyway, give it a try, maybe she’ll say yes.”

“Alright, whatever you say. Anyway, I gotta go, Gertrude. I’ll catch you at Homecoming, okay?”

“Righto, see you!”

[1/2]

Personally I disliked Eugene from the start because of the combo of >>28678230 and the stupid yet bizarrely overdone 'awkward bullied kid turns into super-awesome and attractive person after puberty' thing.

Right. Time for the play now.

“Kitten, you’re coming with me!”

Kitten sighs. “Does this have to do with tanks?”

“No, but it has to do with the play.”

Kitten stands up and yawns. “Fine. Let me get dressed.” She heads out of your dorm to get dressed into hers. As for you, you take a quick shower, get your hair all sorted and straight, and then get yourself dressed into that navy-blue button down shirt and black skirt. Time for Red Dawn: The Musical.

You quickly give Octavia a call.

“Hey, Octavia. Need any help with the play?”

“Sure. Come pick me up at the Pharmacy. I’ll brief you when you get there.”

Great. You head out the door and into the bright early Casablanca morning. You bask in the sunlight for a moment, then head down to Kitten’s dorm. You knock on her door. “Kitten! Let’s go!”

“Yeah, yeah. One second.” She comes out all dressed out a fresh school uniform.

“Not gonna wear that outfit Anna made you?”

“No.”

Well, at least she’s straight. Now what?

Does "gun goes off if the crew starts palming around like if it didn't matter" count as a security risk?

I thought there was a safety mechanism like in small firearms that you have to disengage to actually fire the gun.

That's impressive. Wonder how they phrased that in the AAR.

> Get Breakfast
> Head to Pharmacy

Time to grab some food on the go.

You make a quick stop at McDonalds, grabbing yourself a sausage biscuit and some milk while Kitten simply takes a hash brown and her own bottle of milk as well. You eat as you walk there.

“So, Kitten, sad that Eugene is no longer a romance option like in one of your video games like Mass Effect?”

Kitten shrugs. “A bit. But I suppose I wouldn’t be good at long distance relationships anyway. I like them up close and personal.”

You nod. “I totally agree with that.” You finish off your food and then wash it down with the milk. “Well, then, I think it’s safe to say that we’re no longer going to have our thoughts or actions derailed by the sudden intrusion of a male.”

“You say this as if that’s a common occurrence,” says Kitten.

“Maybe it is, Kitten. Maybe whenever there’s a strong group of females, someone thinks, ‘wait, this needs a guy,’ and then suddenly everything gets screwed right up!” You fume. “Hate when shows do that.”

Kitten brightens up. “Speaking of shows, Crimson Skies is supposed to come out in October.”

“OH I TOTALLY FORGOT!” You pull your hair. Oh god, Nathan Fillion as Nathan Zachary! You quickly consider running home and getting a new pair of panties.

However, you arrive at the Pharmacy anyway, and inside you meet Octavia behind the counter.

She greets you with a, “Hey, what’s up.”

“Oh, not much, Octavia. What about you?”

Octavia shrugs. “Just helping my granddad out with the pharmacy.”

As if on cue, a very old man walks out of the bank. “Octavia, finish cleaning the counter?” he asks.

“Of course, Granddad.” Octavia motions to you and Kitten. “Granddad, this is Gertrude and Kitten. They’re in the Tankery Program.”

Granddad nods, smiling. “Well, well! That’s very good for both of you. I know Tankery’s really becoming popular again!”

You shrug. “Oh, we just thought we’d do it too you know? Figured we’d make women out of ourselves!”

Granddad smiles even bigger. “Well! I expect great things from you then, Gertrude! Same with you, Kitten! Do your best out there!”

You smile and nod to him. “I will, we all will! Thank you.”

With that, Octavia bids farewell to his Granddad, then the three of you leave the Pharmacy. “So, Octavia,” you ask. “What do you need help with?”

Octavia says, “Well. I was actually able to round up more actors, mostly guys from Theatre Arts. Not Roberta if you think that’s what it is.” Octavia points to Kitten. “I’ve casted her as the younger Eckert actually.”

Kitten yelps. “What? I GOT CASTED!?”

Octavia nods. “Yeah.”

“WHY!?”

“Because you were good.”

Kitten strokes her hair, now apparently having something of a panic. “Oh god, oh god, going up on stage, that’s gonna kill me!”

You shrug. “Oh, don’t beat yourself up, Kitten!” You pat her shoulder. “Anyway, Octavia. What do you need our help with?”

“Oh, I just need some help with advertisement.” Octavia stops at a street corner. “Here’s what we’re going to do. We’re going to stand on this street corner, and just shout about the play to passing cars. Barkas will come by in a bit with some signs. Think you two can help with that?”

You shrug back. “I’m a C-Average student.”

Kitten says, “Why don’t we just hang the signs on our tanks and drive around?”

Octavia beams. “Oh, that’s a good idea!” She snaps her fingers. “Alright then, I’ll call up Barkas, have her swing round to the Sports Warehouse. We can just do some driving around after Practice.”

You put your fist into your palm. “I need to revise my history homework actually. That shit’s gotta be plus.”

Octavia nods. “Alright, I’ll see you both at practice then.”

With that, three of you go separate ways. You and Kitten head home back to your dorm. Sad really, you got all dressed out in your best (and only) casual outfit for nothing. Whatever though.

You arrive back at your dorm, and once you’re inside, you quickly unbutton your shirt and let yourself breathe. Kitten meanwhile simply turns on the TV and starts watching some TV.

Thus, you bring out your laptop and begin the soul-crushing ego destroying process of self-revision. You swear your heart sinks a little bit at each mistake, but you grind them out and pound them into dust.

You finished just as Kitten says, “Hey, Trudy. Crimson Skies is on.”

FUCK EVERYTHING, TIME FOR CRIMSON SKIES.

You quickly roll onto your stomach and lie on your bed. Crimson Skies: The Animated Series as it’s more better known, is the animated adaptation of the videogame Crimson Skies by FASA Studio. You positively love every moment of it, the action, the adventure, the planes that shouldn’t exist but do.

Plus, that movie adaptation releasing in October. That shit is gonna be cash.

“Well, Kitten, we are going to get you and your amazing rack into a nice swimsuit and we’re gonna have a nice little party at the pool tomorrow! How about that?”

“I think you’re nuts.”

You scoff. “Oh come on, Kitten! I mean, pool party! Free food! Free water to swim around in! FREE EVERYTHING! Plus, you know, you get the opportunity to tan!”

“Okay, couple of things,” She raises a finger for each point, “One: I don’t look good in a swimsuit. Two: I don’t know how to swim. Three: I don’t look good tanned.”

You however, respond with, “One: That’s your opinion, not everyone else’s. Two: I can teach you how to swim. Three: I’ve never actually seen you tanned but hell this’ll be the opportunity to see it.”

Kitten pouts, crosses her arms. “Fine… just don’t make me wearing anything… risky.”

“We’ll see when we go shopping tonight, okay?”

You spend the rest of the afternoon in your dorm, eating lunch, watching some Crimson Skies. Kitten is still a little peeved that she has to go shopping for swimsuits, but hell, she’ll probably come around.

Soon enough, it’s almost time for Tank practice. What shall you do now?

I agree, but that's actually why I find the stupid pool party shit annoying - I don't want to romance Kitten, but she's an established character that we interact with normally, so if some anons go bananas chatting about her then ah well. She still fits with the quest and I can just ignore them. On the other hand, random people at pool parties (whether male or female) should not be a romance option whatsoever, what the fuck.

The only reason I can think of that you'd be so adamantly against mancandy is that you're actually deeply uncomfortable with your own sexuality to the point where you can't even appropriately empathize with a teenage girl.

> Head to the Sportsfield

You and Kitten make off for the Sportsfield, with you having decided to switch out your casualware for your school uniform. You arrive at the Sportsfield in good time, and meet up with your various crews, including the new addition.

“Hey, Dales. You made it!”

The four Naval Studies Merchant kids greet you amicably. Dales says, “We’re ready for whatever tank you want us in!”

You nod. “Righto.”

You also spot Mr. Mishka and some Naval Studies Engineering students working on the stripped out chassis of the Panzer III. You greet him as well. “Ah! Gertrude! Good to see you, good to see you!” He motions over to the chassis. “Your soon to be StuG III.”

You nod. “Thanks, Mr. Mishka.”
