Well, Rhiya, driving a tank is hard as hell. You could keep the pilots alive at gunpoint, but that'd be dangerous, and kinda ineffective (most soldiers wouldn't fire on their friends even with a gun placed to their head... I mean, would you shoot your friend if someone was aiming at you? Maybe... but I'm sure most of us would at LEAST hesitate). However, if you kill all the people piloting and then call someone whose speciality deals with tanks (weapons boy could shoot it well enough, but probably not drive too hot, while vehicles could drive pretty well but it'd probably take some work to figure out the cannon), there's now a tank on our side. It promotes team work, or something.

You could also just jump out and leave the empty tank, trusting one of us to get it, or toss an actual grenade (instead of flash) into it and destroy the controls along with the pilots. Maybe detonate the ammunition too, and blow the whole thing up. Oooh... fireworks.

Well, I could teach someone how to pilot the tank. It's just a matter of learning the language then teaching them how to use the controls.

(I had something stupid to say, but this isn't the right place or time.)

heyyyy... that sounds like a nifty idea, blowing it up..

I guess I'll stick with that tactic. It requires less damage to the few braincells i have left in my cranium.

Well, actually, if we can use it to our advantage it might be better to use a flash. Then we can gain entrance into the enemy teritory, stealth wise.

Here is my bio.

Name: Deren Rean
Age: 30
Description: Deren is a relatively tall man with light brown hair which sticks up on his head. He has dark black eyes.
Specialty: Cartography/ Lesser Topography, Deren is a master in writing and reading maps and, to a lesser extent understanding the terrain it describes. He always carries around a laptop, with all of his maps on it. He also carries a small bag filled with sealed waterproof cylinders, which hold all his spares. There is a pistol hidden in one of the cylinders.
Background: Deren began his career as a common soldier in the (insert random country here) army. However soon after he completed his training he was captured and sent to a prison facility. He spent the next five years of his life in there, spending his time drawing maps of the place on any strip of paper he could find to give him something to do. Finally the place he was being kept in was captured. Unfortunately by a different army. Deciding against staying with his "rescuers", Deren escaped. After the incident Deren decided to continue working with maps so, for the next three years he perfected his skill in creating maps, as well as getting a lesser skill in knowing terrain. After that time Deren decided to return to military life and joined ICA.

.

Name: Garet Montag

Specialty: Grunt/Philosopher - basically the perfect meatshield for any occasion, but knows when to run from a fight. Living in a nightmare world has forced Garet to think for himself and he learned from his father the meaning of morality.

Bio: The son of the late Guy Montag. He traveled through time to escape a world filled without books and the freedom to think. After fleeing from a robotic police dog from the future, he needs money to start a new life in the past, since he took a plexiglass riot shield and his trusty M16 rifle, he has become one of the most important tools of the ICA.

This RP has already died, I'm afraid. Check the War in the Sun: Rough Landing thread in the RP section.

You know, I got bored of this RP for a while. SO I didn;t post. But I have no idea how to continue it now...

GARUD · 06-26-2005, 07:20 AM

c'mon people, where is your zest. Here is an idea, put a little bit of action in it. Possibly an enemy raid or something. Be creative.
