GULGALLANA VS AMALTHEA

[soulping]

[You are whisked away to a small, dark crypt. Torches flicker on the cobweb-covered walls and a mysterious stone altar stands in the center of the room. There are two holes carved into the top of the altar: one is empty, and in the other stands a rod with a team-colored flag attached. Lined up in front of the flag are guns for every member of your team, but you all know instinctively that they're harmless. Hanging on the wall behind the altar is a parchment with the instructions of the game.]

GULGALLANA CRYPT

[ hangs head, heavy lines looming. ] Of course it's A-Amalthea.

[cihuatlatoani]

Have no regrets, Iris. It is not lethal, in any event.

Re: GULGALLANA CRYPT

[naturen]

Th-That's true, but...! [ sighs. looks at the map. ]

There's... kind of a straight line along the edge here. [ she points to the left edge, trails down, then goes along the bottom. there's just one crypt in the way. ]

Re: GULGALLANA CRYPT

[debate_avenger]

This is going to be tough, yeah. Of course, this is a good opportunity, too.

Re: GULGALLANA CRYPT

[naturen]

I-It is?

Re: GULGALLANA CRYPT

[debate_avenger]

Well then. There are a couple strategies to use here.

Re: GULGALLANA CRYPT

[cihuatlatoani]

Do elaborate, then. I am afraid I have not regained my tactical knowledge.

Re: GULGALLANA CRYPT

[hardertheyfall]

I have a little. Although I trust Diz's instincts more than my own.

Re: GULGALLANA CRYPT

[hardertheyfall]

[ So excited that he knows how to use a gun this time! ]

So we just take it slow and steady and attack them from both sides.

Re: GULGALLANA CRYPT

[debate_avenger]

Pretty much, yes. I would like us to keep at least two people on defense though, since there's no guarantee they won't make a direct attack to overwhelm our defense.

Re: GULGALLANA CRYPT

[naturen]

[ iris and montage are now back in the crypt, hiding behind the entrance. iris still has the flag on her, tucked into her jacket. the length of it will make bending tricky, but she figures she'll figure something out if it comes down to it. ]

Re: GULGALLANA CRYPT

[cihuatlatoani]

Tch. I should have done better.

AMALTHEA CRYPT

[soulping]

Re: AMALTHEA CRYPT

[goodbyenurse]

...The objective here is to prevent our flag from being stolen, yes?

Re: AMALTHEA CRYPT

[whoslaughingmeow]

That is correct, yes.

Re: AMALTHEA CRYPT

[worldsaving]

[ don't mind her, she's touchin' on everything ]

Uh... [ let's go with "sure" ] Looks like it.

Re: AMALTHEA CRYPT

[worldsaving]

[ taking up position crouched down behind the flag altar; in effect, she's blind to anyone coming in, save for what she can get from keeping an eye (and ear) on Belt's reactions and general ambient noise, but she's also fairly well-hidden. so there is that. sucks insofar as an escape route, though. ]

Geez, it's cold...

[ she probably shouldn't mutter to herself, too, huh.

flexes her finger on the trigger... ]

CEMETERY

[soulping]

[Venture outside of your crypts and you'll be back in the cemetery: still dark, still creepy, still covered in thick fog. Your opponent's base is across the graveyard from yours. Go get those flags!

Map
-Green squares and statues in rows are graves.
-Large green diamonds in opposite corners are crypts. Gulgallana is on top left, Amalthea is on bottom right.
-Grey rectangles are mausoleums. There are five and they are all open to enter.]

Re: CEMETERY

[whoslaughingmeow]

[Well I guess I'll be. Sneaking out now. Along that nice, straight bath along the bottom and left edges.

Obviously nobody would ever guard there, right? Right.

So let's say, like. To 19r, or so.]

Re: CEMETERY

[cihuatlatoani]

[Montage and Iris are carrying the flag to the tree in the upper left.

If they aren't detected, they'll climb up into the tree with the flag, and take sniper positions from the branches; Iris from 4F, with the flag, and Montage from 4G.]

Re: CEMETERY

[whoslaughingmeow]

[Well he is going to pass right by there, eventually.

And he's not exactly bright enough to think to check the trees, awhoops]

Re: CEMETERY

[naturen]

[ iris kind of liked the staying in the crypt idea, but hey! this could work, too. especially since she feels pretty confident about being able to grab the flag and flee at any second. (for now, it's perched across a pair of branches.) ]

Re: CEMETERY

[debate_avenger]

[Diz and Cross are moving southeast, making use of cover wherever they can while remaining withing sight of eachother.]

The main point for now is to reach the cluster of mausoleums. From there, we have a lot more freedom to move.

Re: CEMETERY

[goodbyenurse]

[you won't be seeing any resistance.]

[it's quiet... too quiet.]
