It seems I have misattributed Ka'a's location to Fails'. Fails moves to C9.

I also support the spec ops to B8.
I have no idea what I'm doing, and IT IS GLORIOUS!

GMSO - Silent Surprise (Turn 2)

Post by Nerre » Sun Apr 12, 2015 1:54 pm

OPERATION: SPACE ODYSSEY

Mission 2: Silent Surprise
After the minesweeper crew successfully cleared the huge minefield during Mission Asteroid Slalom, your fleet now has arrived. While they fight big battles, your squad has already a new asignment. A shield generator has been located on a porous asteroid, which protects the enemy's spacestation. While your fleet can wipe out the enemy fleet, it cannot attack the station while it is protected by the powerfull shield.
Since the generator asteroid also is surrounded by a strong shield, only small objects can be teleported in, and only one at a time. Such as a person in a space suit. Your task is to clear the path for a special ops squad that will try to raid the generator base. To make sure most of them arrive, your task is to clear their path. From time to time, you will get special ops members to help you fight hostile forces. They share the teleportation windows with your team. Try not to explode mines, as it might attract hostile forces and block teleportation windows for other players and the special ops. You start in turn 0 after all of you have been teleported in.
Turn 2
Image

Information:
- each tile with a number also has an equal amount of red dots in the upper left corner, just in case you cannot read the number cause of the player avatars.
- your blasters have a range of 3 and deal 1 damage (diagonally = 1.5 tiles). You automatically defend yourself, but do not automatically aid somebody. You can shoot while moving.
- you have 5 health. Lost health can be regained by doing a repair action, restoring 2 health per turn.
- if you can at least fly 1.5 tiles per turn, you can move diagonally (diagonally = 1.5 tiles). If one of the adjacent tiles, which you would have to pass with none-diagonal movement, is an active mine not marked with a beacon, you have a 50% chance to trigger it.
- if you can at least fly 2 tiles per turn, you can pass several tiles per turn or move at 50% speed and still do an attack, repair or place-beacon action.
- better spacesuits might have better values.
- You can only deployed on column A-C until somebody reaches a column further to the right, no matter if PC or special ops NPC. Once somebody reached a column, it is then unlocked for deployment for the rest of the game.

Actions:
Comes-to-late flies to A3 and uncovers a 1.
Fails-to-see flies to C9, which is already explored and safe, weren't it for the defense turret on E8. It aktivates, but decides to fire on Pats
Ka's Splaat flies to C11 and uncovers a 3.
Makes-it-go-boom flies to C6, which is already explored and safe.
Pats-Asteroids flies to C7, which is already explored and safe, weren't it for the defense turret on E8. It aktivates and fires a volley of blue plasma shots at him. He is lucky and only one shot hits him, dealing 1 damage. He automatically fires at the attacking turret and deals 1 damage. This did barely scratch the paint of the turret.
Spec ops 1 is deployed to B8.
Column C has been unlocked for deployment.

Nobody did die, but the next spec ops is not ready yet, so nobody teleports in.

Can it uncover tiles or only go to revealed squares?

I suggest it moves to C8 and fires on the turret. (can it stay still?)

the spec ops can move and fight like you, but has better battle attributes. He cannot uncover mines or place beacons. Standing still is no problem. He is a bit slower than you due to his heavy suit.

Edit: While he cannot uncover mine indicator numbers on tiles, he can step onto unexplored tiles to see if there is a mine. He can also push the advancement by stepping into a not yet unlocked column.

Try not to explode mines, as it might attract hostile forces and block teleportation windows for special ops, as players redeploy first. You start in turn 0 after all of you have been teleported in.
Turn 3

Information:
- each tile with a number also has an equal amount of red dots in the upper left corner, just in case you cannot read the number cause of the player avatars.
- your blasters have a range of 3 and deal 1 damage (diagonally = 1.5 tiles). You automatically defend yourself, but do not automatically aid somebody. You can shoot while moving.
- you have 5 health. Lost health can be regained by doing a repair action, restoring 2 health per turn.

- better spacesuits might have better values.
- You can only deployed on column A-D until somebody reaches a column further to the right, no matter if PC or special ops NPC. Once somebody reached a column, it is then unlocked for deployment for the rest of the game.

Actions:
Comes-to-late flies to A4 and uncovers a 2.
Fails-to-see flies to D10, which, to his regret, is a mine. He explodes. His clone will be redeployed in turn 5 (post actions after turn 4). He was now within the shooting range of the tower on F10. It fires a volley of blue plasma shots, but there is nothing left to hit for them.
Ka's Splaat flies to D11 and uncovers a 3 and places a warning beacon on C10. He is now within the shooting range of the tower on F10.
Makes-it-go-boom flies to C5 and uncovers a 0, triggering the discovery of all 5 adjacent fields. He is now within the shooting range of the tower on E3. It aktivates and fires a volley of blue plasma shots at him. He is hit by 2 shots him, dealing 1 damage each. He automatically fires at the attacking turret and deals 1 damage.
Pats-Asteroids flies to D6, uncovering a 2. He is still within the shooting range of the tower on E8. It continues to fire at him. One shot hits him, dealing 1 damage. He automatically fires at the attacking turret and deals 1 damage.
Spec ops 1 flies to C8 and fires at the tower on E8 twice, dealing 4 damage. The tower looks damaged now.

Column D has been unlocked for deployment.

Fails did die, but since he is not yet ready to teleport in again next turn, a spec ops gets to use the teleport window. Decide where he should be deployed at the beginning of next turn.

Spec OPs at D4 (teleport)
The other continues firing.
(he teleports although a mine exploded?)

Comes-too-late flags a mine at A5, then flags B3 (for the round afterwards, should I not be able to)

The "blocks the teleportation window" means that if one of you dies, he has to respawn. If that would occur in the same turn as a spec ops member could be deployed, the spec ops member would have to wait till the next free window.
It does not mean that a mine explosion by some EMP effect or whatever blocks the window.

I changed the description in the mission info to make it clearer. If somebody can phrase it better please suggest it in a spoiler. :)

- if you can at least fly 1.5 tiles per turn, you can move diagonally (diagonally = 1.5 tiles). If one of the adjacent tiles, which you would have to pass with none-diagonal movement, is an active mine not marked with a beacon, you have a 50% chance to trigger it.
- if you can at least fly 2 tiles per turn, you can pass several tiles per turn or move at 50% speed and still do an attack, repair or place-beacon action.
- if you have more than one attack, you can split them between several targets.
- better spacesuits might have better values.
- You can only deployed on column A-E until somebody reaches a column further to the right, no matter if PC or special ops NPC. Once somebody reached a column, it is then unlocked for deployment for the rest of the game.

Actions:
Comes-too-late places a warning beacon on A5.
Fails-to-see awakes in the cloning tank. He will be equipped and send back to the minefield in 5. He should decide where he wants to be deployed.

Makes-it-go-boom flies to C4, which is already explored and safe. The tower on E3 activates and fires a volley of blue plasma shots at him. He receives 2 damage and deals 1 to tower E3.
Pats-Asteroids flies to E6, uncovering a 3. He deals 1 damage to tower on E8. The tower however, turns on spec ops 1, who dealt a lot more damage to it. Tower G4 activates and fires a volley of blue plasma balls on Pats, but all miss.
Spec ops 1 flies to C8 and fires at the tower on E8 twice, dealing 4 damage. The tower looks severly damaged now. The tower returns fire, dealing 3 damage to spec ops 1.
Spec ops 2 is deployed to D4 and fires on the tower on E3, dealing 4 damage, which looks damaged now.

Column E has been unlocked for deployment.

Comes-too-late marks B3 with a warning beacon.

[ooc]once again I am spelled wrong ... "too", not "to"[/ooc]

"Is each tower also a mine? E3 also includes a mine...
Other mines are detected at B3, D7, D9, and A10. Be careful please..."
"Also note that the tower at G8 did not shoot, while Pats is in range. Does the central structure shiele the sensor's line of sight?"

I really should change it in the source file and not only the current update. Next time it should be okay. :D

Krulle: The tower shot, but all shots missed (lucky dice roll for you), which is why I forgot to paint it into the picture. Did correct it, please press F5 to update picture and text.
