Salvation Outpost - Chapter 2

"That's why, ideally, I'm serving as bait while you all hold back. Everyone rushes in after the shot."

"Sounds good to me. Who's going, who's staying with the canon, and which way to the guard patrol we are going to hit first?" Vice asked, determined to see this through.

Being "the new guy" and knowing how some of them felt about his having come with them, Peldan doesn't interject but rather waits to see where the others want him to be.

Here’s something to help visualize the town. Took me awhile, sorry for being quiet to finish it.
Battle coordinates may be fun… we’ll figure it out.

Garundah need one more person besides me to operate cannon. Sheriff? My baby will assist you in the field. If it is destroyed I can patch it back no problem.

OOC:

Buff just like Peldan will not assume any sort of leadership with regards to planing.

As a player however I would like to suggest a choice that I see a better fit to 5e mechanics than partisan war against patrols:

1. Surround and fight blades when they return from next train inspection.
2. Setup cannon on a direct line of sight to the church and...

"I can join in with the cannon, maybe even pepper them with arrows if it runs out of ammo." Kleber volunteers with clear enthusiasm in being able to operate the weaponry. "But we'll need to drag the thing along the street to get a clear line of sight, which means dealing with the patrol or risking a flank while aiming."

OOC:

Don't think there will be a next train inspection for a while. We fought their scouts at the bar, they should know by now something is up as those warforged didn't report back.

I will stand guard with the cannon. She has her longbow out and an arrow knocked ready for the first warforge she sees.

Garundah do you mind to use cannon today? I would like to give you 100 gp as compensation for the ammo.

Vice notices everyone seems to be making their final preparations, and he does the same. Checking his chakram, and other assorted gear. "Well, 37, you've been watching the patrols right? So where do we hit first? I'll follow your lead."

Sheriff

Sheriff gestures out the window to the patrol walking around the corner from Main Street and heading down to the train platform. "There go the the patrol.", he says with a headshake.

It dawns on 37 that based on his observations, the second patrol would be on the other side of town.

Belaluur

Belaluur calms down for a moment, "As long as you keep your skinny butt on that roof and out of the fighting, I won’t skin you alive.", it’s clear the goblin mother is not joking.

Garundah

"Deal!" and Garundah jumps down from the counter.

"I’ll get it loaded, just in case." and she bolts up the stairs to the cannon.

Have to see that Buff note trying to catch up with Garundah.
He manage to add Belaluur, I will make sure of Garundah's safety. House Kundarak knows all about safety. as he moves up the stairs and disappear.

"Guess that's our plan for the hunt. Let's take care of the Blades now while they're closer?" the half-orc asks, eyes trailing the Blades that the Sheriff pointed out.

37 looks out the window. "No time to prepare. Let's let them pass so we can set up a proper ambush... the other patrol should be on the other side of town, giving us time. We want people both in front of and behind the patrol for the surprise."

Sheriff

"I see what you’re getting at, 37. I’ll distract them in front of The Grey Beyond. They hate me anyway. Use the alley to go around."

37 knows that there will not be much time to move. If the ambush is going to happen, it has to happen now. Sheriff steps out the door and quickly strides down the avenue.

"That wasn't -" When Sheriff walks out the door, 37 falls silent and heads out as well, intending to cut behind them as suggested.

Vice will follow 37, ready to back him up. He may be waaaay back, but Vice will be there.

"The sooner we handle them, the quicker we can set up the cannon." Kleber says rolling his shoulder and following behind 37.
