Shit. My absence and the dysfunctional notifications have left me confused. Windsock , Discord, if you'd please.

 

[Malphaestus]

Time to write an IC post as if I was never gone in the first place. Praise be.

I've written my thing, but before posting it, I sent it to Windsock for validation. For clarity and re-adjustment purposes.

Windsock I will try to get a post up today, but if you want to go ahead, I won't complain. Think of this as a soft "skip me" post.

I've been super busy this week and, TBH, there just isn't much to respond to. Most of my posts in this mission have been walking and asking Peyton if she hears anything on comms. Maybe a post from the enemy's POV would be helpful, to set the scene and help us steer the narrative in a meaningful direction instead of fumbling in the dark. Foreshadowing. I wasn't going to bring it up because it hasn't been a major issue. (Being at work all the damn time is the bigger issue, LOL. That's what has slowed down my posting.) But you asked for feedback, so... yeah. It's been on my mind for a while, so I figured I'd let you know.

Thanks a ton! That is good feedback. I'll try to incorporate more things to do specifically for Azata's skillset for the remainder of the operation and in the future.

Please allow me to make a post for queue B today with this in mind before you get to work on your own post. Thank you for your suggestions.

 

[Windsock]

Please expect a post for queue B later today

Edit: Actually, I'll do both queues

Excellente! Means I gotta re-write what I had for B tho smh

Please expect that soon!

 

[Windsock]

Posted a double-GM post for both queue A and B, forgot a line about how the NC's were for the B portion and had to edit that in real quick.

And yes he did say that. hmm

There are (or were) lifts to the surface in this room, right? One of your previous posts mentioned "elevators and ladders to higher levels" but I wasn't sure if that meant to the surface or to higher levels of shelves/racks within this chamber, since this is a storage room.

 

[Windsock]

The mentioned elevator and ladders are people-sized and are situated around the shelvings, like in a modern warehouse. There isn't an NC-sized elevator where your guys are at, and there aren't any they've seen yet. There might be more deeper in the facility but it'd be quicker to trace steps.

 

[AnonyMouse]

So, no conveniently-placed shafts to the surface? No plot-required "exhaust port" for a Death Star-esque trench run? Oh, well, I'll just have to make my own...

*loads up high-explosive rounds and aims at the ceiling*

*Halliwell, Alice, and Peyton all slap the keyboard out of my hands*

*sad AnonyMouse noises*

Posted. Sorry for the delay. I have family over and I guess I'm supposed to interact with them, like normal humans do. You Earthlings are such strange creatures, LOL.

Anyway, I escaped long enough to write a quickie. It's shorter than intended, but gets the point across and moves things along a bit.

 

[Viper Actual]

I'll post my reply tomorrow. For now I sleep.

What kinds of information do the handlers have access to? For example, how are they seeing the action and able to provide feedback/guidance? Satellite imagery? Reconnaissance drones? Spotters with binoculars, haha?

I've been wondering that for a while, but it seems super important right now.
