The Drassen Massacre
Powder Burns
Two Manurhin revolvers are bought for RaginAZN. Although not as fast, they support 2x scopes and because in John Who case they will be more than just sidearms, this is useful and from the available pistols they are the fastest firing ones that support a scope.
To answer that doubt: yes, inventory was weirdly duplicated. No big deal.
Ira gets the priest to support Miguel's revolutionary efforts by sending aid to Omerta.
Suddenly, while they continued training militias, several mass formations of enemy troops were sported slowly gathering around the mine of Drassen. ITZ COMIN'. No more time left. The team begins to regroup to defend the mines.
Taking some the best defensive positions, they know this will be the hardest battle they ever fought, for the legions of Deirdranna forces are numbered in almost a hundred, those militias can't be counted upon to operate successfully and they are only six.
Kodex Kool Krew finest hour has begun.
Orgasm is the first to thin the massive numbers of enemy forces.
Bee is sniping more of them. Unfortunately their legions span all around their position and outnumber the mercenaries at nearly 15:1
Casualties are mounting up quickly among the tactically ignorant militia.
Orgasm ends in a tight situation, but she knew the risks. Both her and Black are the most endangered of the team, the ones who took the choice of putting themselves closer to harm's way.
Black is not a sniper, and a shotgun isn't supposed to be that accurate, but his skills are starting to match those of Ulminati and Bee.
Ira's first battle proves she is capable in spite of not being as good as the others in the team.
All sides are covered, but with their numbers, the enemies can easily overwhelm the brave mercenaries if they try hard enough.
In fact, one of them nearly gets at point-blank range to Black while their numbers only grow to something completely beyond what the mercenaries could handle. The gravity of the situation worsens, but:
Injected
Straight to the core
C.N. system bypassed
Ready for war
Targets now hostile
Pushed to the edge
These colours have borne - No retreat
Honour the pledge
From a window that exposed her flank, Orgasm's death becomes an omen of how dire their situation has become. She has served the cause greatly, and shall never be forgotten.
Black, in the meanwhile, proves how tough or perhaps lucky he is. Although multiple foes are close to him, they fail over and over at their attempts to put him down, and he withstand such situation that would lead many weaker to panic with utmost courage and die hard determination.
Countless enemy bodies are left. They will drown in their own blood. For every Kodexer killed ten of them shall perish!
Bee's performance becomes legendary during this battle, while the situation continues to worsen as the legions gather.
Ira is covering their west point quite well for a rookie.
Then, an opportunistic sniper manages to outdo Bee, causing another terrible loss for the team. The situation is now becoming almost unmanageable, but no retreat shall happen while so many enemies lie from all directions. Even if they have to retreat, they will have to clear their way to safety first.
As for Bee, we shall never forget one of the greatest snipers to ever grace this operation.
There is nowhere to hide! Even prone on the middle of rooftops they are vulnerable. Only Ira is still unscathed in this growingly desperate struggle.
The legions may end victorious in this battle, but they will pay a very high price with their blood.
TRAGEDY! Femshep EXTREME has abandoned her when most needed! The situation couldn't be worse, but they don't simply lay down their heads and give up! They are greater than that! Even in his exposed position, the most exposed one from the entire team, Black continues to bravely engage enemy forces.
Femshep:
The battle rages on. The militia are failing epically and dying much faster than the mercenaries, and the enemy forces seem to never end no matter how many casualties they suffer.
Men of limitless courage are never intimidated. Their bravery shall perhaps one day be sung by the folklore of the people of Arulco.
The enemy, on the other hand, has lost nearly half of their invading force already, but they are too numberful for the survivors, resigned to fight to the death.
Then another opportunistic sniper managed to pin down Ira while she was prone on the rooftop. Her life was forfeit, for Ulminati couldn't risk to climb up there to provide first aid.
Ira fought for freedom and dignity for a foreign and oppressed people, being alone the true example of a freedom fighter, the same thing theKwa government propaganda bullshit claims their entire army are while slaughtering outnumbered and technologically inferior raghead armies to steal their oil and set up a more submissive dictatorship.
With only Black and Ulminati left, they choose to go to that windowless bar to make their last stand.
Try to run - You cannot hide
Thoughts that cannot be denied
Pain that never goes away
...The powder burns
However, only Black made it through. While the last militias were being slaughtered by better trained and equipped forces, Black was applying first aid on himself.
Ulminati, the greatest sniper. A great fighter who couldn't withstand such numberful enemy forces. Never forget.
Onward
No compromise
Proceeding ritual
Fear denied
Hopped up on dreamdust
Burns in the brain
Psychological technique
Invincible - No pain
And thus, hearing the waning gunfight sounds as one side was clearly about to win the battle, Black awaited a few seconds for a foe that never came, and then, in a moment of wisdom, he realized it was better to live to fight another day, and although extremely risky, he moved onward to reach the safety of the sector of Drassen to his north.
Taking an energy boost, he managed to run fast enough to avoid getting shot.
Black thus ended as the only survivor of the Kodex Kool Krew after the Massacre of Drassen. Leaving behind 55 enemy soldiers, he wasted no time as the remaining militiamen met him, and began to, in what seemed now a futile effort, train more militia, on his own.
Although at the beginning of the battle he was deemed the one most likely to die first, ironically he became the only one to live through it. And he will not turn his back on Drassen.
Let us never forget our martyrs:
Bee, second highest kill count before her demise in the battle of Drassen.
Femshep, who provoked a disproportionate amount of casualties during the battle of Drassen, but failed to make it through.
Orgasm's courage and initiative of positioning herself in harm's way to kill as many enemies as she could won't be ignored due to her relatively small kill count compared to the snipers.
Ira's first serious and last battle will most likely mean that, hopefully, in the future, a hospital or school shall be named in honor of her ultimate sacrifice for the cause of freedom.
The battle was lost, but the war wasn't over yet. Thanks to reserve funds, once more unto the breach, my friends!
SoupNazi brings a set of exotic skills as one of the new recruits. Whether or not his martial artist abilities will be either useless or downright suicidal if tried is yet to be seen.
Elizavieta "Flayer" Bathory is not the kind of woman you should invite for a private meeting. A master of swordplay, she has learned the art of hunting... human beings.
Rebecca Boreale, daughter of Indrick Boreale, has inherited his father courage and charisma to lead SPEESH MAHREEHNS IN METAL BAWKSES. Unfortunately her father couldn't come(3 male, 3 female/tranny only) thus she went in as a replacement. On her free time she has a hobby of composing and singing some really shitty songs made even shittier by her speech impediment.
And finally, Femshep's spiritual successor is less specialized in only machineguns, thinks mechanics is for nerds and isn't as good with explosives, but compensates with athletic mastery of collar-grabbing and a great skill with EXTREME big guns.
Together with Black and RaginAZN, they shall soon finish what the brave Kodex Kool Krew started in Drassen, in memory of all who gave their lives for the cause.
And this time, they shall succeed.
May those who made the ultimate sacrifice for freeing Arulco never be forgotten.
The recruitment pool already ran out dry, so new characters are more than welcome.
in this update.
Ah well, it's ok. Demo it is then.
