0.5: Lt Rawlon Bones

[11:32 AM] Zooknar: In the period since you landed in Australia, you have been gather gear and slowly cobbling your mecha back together. You finally have everything put together and you think it is about the time for Mars Division to arrive, but you don't have an exact date. One night while sitting at your camp fire you look up and see new stars in the sky, then explosions, and they are big. This must be Mars Division. That means it is time for you to get into action. Over the next few hours you see a huge number of falling stars, but you can't raise anyone on the radio. Early in the morning your radio begins picking up an Emergency Locator Beacon from the east. Maybe some one is out there. [Your turn.]

[1:12 PM] bradkane: Rawlon gathers his gear and plots the best course towards the signal. If he can hear it, others can to. He must hurry, but the course should provide cover and not expose him to unnecessary danger. What if it is a trap? Surely not the Invid...some waster scum could be behind it. Time to find out.

[1:13 PM] Zooknar: After about 15 minutes of traveling you see a pillar of smoke off in the distance.

[1:16 PM] bradkane: I scan the skies for enemies, picking up the pace. Rawlon knows that column is visible for many miles. As he draws near, he will find an observation point in cover, to watch the scene for 10 minutes before heading in directly.

[1:17 PM] Zooknar: make an Sensory Equipment check (that needs to be done in the regular channels, not this one)

[1:19 PM] Zooknar: Ohh, and a prowl check

[1:21 PM] Zooknar: do you have your character sheer available, or do you want me to look it up?

[1:22 PM] bradkane: Failed sensory, made the prowl.

[1:24 PM] Zooknar: You see a lot of smoke coming up from what looks that the smashed and brunung engine section and neck of a horizont, no signs of the of the bridge or supply bunkers.

[1:28 PM] bradkane: Observe for a period, scan the surroundings. Rawlon will approach quickly once it seems safe. Maybe there are survivors, or some gear. Or some plans, orders, anything.

[1:29 PM] Zooknar: In your Alpha in Battloid mode?

[1:35 PM] Zooknar: I am going to assume yes for the moment. Go to the # side-channel room and there will be another player for you to interact with.
