CC: How far outside the facility does the psychic jamming extend? In particular, is it covering the PDF positions as well?

Cynical Cat · Post by **Cynical Cat** » Mon Jun 19, 2006 8:41 pm

Its like a cocoon around the facility. It doesn't affect the PDF guys, who are dug in a half dozen klicks away.

Okay, then I think we have some confusion here, because our friendly messenger from the Necrontyr was posting about the PDF being rather closer. I shall amend my plans regarding the land-line to compensate.

NecronLord is playing an augmented superhuman wearing power armour with enhanced sensory equipment and refering to fairly visible defensive works. Its all good.

Well, he also mentioned letting the PDF see him, so I assumed they were rather closer than six kilometres. Still, it requires only minor adjustments to my plan, so it's not really an issue.

Does this plan involve having the PDF bombard the enemy position for a few days with deadly gases that will seep deep into the tunnels to kill the enemy?

GeneralTacticus · Post by **GeneralTacticus** » Mon Jun 19, 2006 10:15 pm

No, that may come later, if it turns out that this mysterious enemy is actually vulnerable to gas. The current plan involves getting around the jamming by placing a relay station outside it and connecting it to us directly.

In regard to Nitram's question - where is the Tantalus system, anyway? Has it been specified?

Cynical Cat · Post by **Cynical Cat** » Mon Jun 19, 2006 11:16 pm

Spinward section of Segmentum Tempestes, ~thousand lightyears from the Ultima Segmentum boarder.

And yes, there is probably something that can serve as a secondary air control center, but this is a few landing pads, not an airport.

And for those of you who have no idea where that is.

Handy-dandy map

The Emperor wills...

The guardsmen have collected the weapons of the fallen Arbites. Never know when a few extra rounds will come in handy.

The Emperor wills... and the Emperor provides

The badies weapons fall between hellguns and pulse carbines in firepower. Their armour is a little better than mesh, but not equal to carapace and the critters are tough, although not Ork or Astartes tough.

What sort of numbers are we looking at here?

Cynical Cat · Post by **Cynical Cat** » Tue Jun 20, 2006 1:08 am

Thirty or so in the first wave.

Now would be an excellent time for our heroic brothers in the Deathwatch to make an appearance and save the day...

Our heroic brothers in the Deathwatch were asleep. Damn those timezones. :eek:

Well, personally, I had no idea how close or far away they are. But even PDF can have futurey binoculars. *Nods towards the latest Caiphas Cain book*

And behold, we now have something to vivisect and go "Hmmm, most peculiar" over in the event that any of us escape the refinery alive.

The Necrontyr Messenger · Tue Jun 20, 2006 6:06 am

I'm off to start picking fights with my Ordo Xenos army. Tacitus, you're welcome to run Crassiros in case there's something needs reacting to and I'm not on.

GeneralTacticus · Post by **GeneralTacticus** » Tue Jun 20, 2006 6:24 am

Well, that's a small problem, because I'll be going to bed fairly soon myself, and I won't be available most of tomorrow.

pcm? Are you up to puppeting our characters if need be?

Pcm979 · Post by **Pcm979** » Tue Jun 20, 2006 6:26 am

Just as a note, Messenger, earlier I had the Cat spend several minutes chewing me out for an earlier version of my post where I, much like you, attempted to 'suppress' 40-odd fearless beast who're immune to anything less than a regular bolt.

Oh, and the Cat is offline, as I will be for a while. It looks like you're on your own there Tacticus.

*wakes up* What'd I miss? *reads* I go away for a few hours, and this is what happens? *sigh*

White Haven · Post by **White Haven** » Tue Jun 20, 2006 10:47 am

Bleah. Looks like I have some serious catching up to do...sorry for the absence, out-of-state weddings play merry hell with posting times.

Wow, this is like the most aggressive retreat EVER.
