13:55:19 Devastator: Woo, that was a good roll.
13:56:37 Devastator: to get that rifle? I was expecting to fall down a hole and be seperated forever.
13:58:00 syv: Ah. Yeah, you actually failed that roll, it was Mina's action that found it, mechanically.
13:58:34 Devastator: Yeah, I'll thank her.
13:58:35 syv: And it wasn't a very good roll, more just sixth sense being very strong ehen used to investigate... anything, really.
13:58:58 syv: But yeah, good on Twin for actually being forward.
14:00:58 Devastator: Yeah, good all around.
14:02:04 Devastator: Of course, failure would mean attempting to someone something related to someone else, so that would have been fun too.
14:02:56 syv: ..."Summon something", mayhaps?
14:05:34 Devastator: Oh well, probably just saving the crit successes for combat. ;-p
14:09:35 Devastator: I also thought Sasha was ashore first.
14:10:29 Devastator: Anyway, some conversation and then orders should be good.
14:10:49 syv: The timeframe was played fast and loose with this one.
14:11:18 syv: I think if I were to assign how long each of the turns took, every char would be on a different time schedule.
14:11:47 Devastator: Yeah, it's not that big a deal.
14:11:58 Devastator: It isn't like there's any really time-dependant things here.
14:12:37 Devastator: Although getting out of this music might be better than following it. Could be a slaughterhouse at the music, for instance, and not the witch.
14:12:56 Devastator: I'll probably mention that IC, as last time the centre of the trap wasn't where the last witch was.
14:14:46 Devastator: Maybe something noisy will help protect from the music.
14:15:50 Devastator: I'll think about it.
14:17:08 syv: Hehe. Draping a wet jacket over someone's head. I won't do this, but it makes me think of waterboarding.
14:17:56 Devastator: obviously she'd shake off some of the water first.
14:18:03 Devastator: but they make jackets so that they don't ship water.
14:18:53 syv: Really depends on the jackey, but yeah. It's fine to do.
14:19:05 Devastator: Jackets for ships are absolutely supposed to not ship water.
14:19:27 Devastator: It's.. kinda the primary reason they exist is to keep water off.
14:20:14 Devastator: You know, once everyone has telepathy, should go into battle wearing earplugs. They're cheap, and we can just talk via telepathy.
14:21:05 syv: Oh, she's wearing a jacket intended for use on a ship? Hadn't realized.
14:21:50 Devastator: Yeah.. it's in the description.
14:22:30 Devastator: Part of the outfit.
14:23:09 syv: I had figured it was part of the general magical-girls-in-"sailor"-cosplay meme, and largely wrote it off. >.>
14:23:14 Devastator: ..at least that's what I thought.
14:23:20 Devastator: Yeah, a sailor jacket, basically.
14:23:28 Devastator: so it'd be the kind you'd wear on ship.
14:24:28 Devastator: Not very warm, and I don't think it'd be much good at keeping the sound out, but with the fact that it's essentially a piece of Alida's skin, it might work better than the 'pretty badly' bit I'd expect it to be conventionally.
14:28:50 Devastator: It's also possible that she didn't have the jacket in the water, and only is wearing it now that she wants it to be available.
14:30:26 syv: I specifically don't care about your outfit, long as it doesn't include too-useful stuff like binoculars or brass knuckles or something.
14:30:56 Devastator: Then that's the case.
14:31:00 Devastator: but yeah, nothing like that.
14:34:05 syv: What do you think of CULT so far?
14:37:18 Devastator: I'll probably quit fairly soon.
14:38:09 Devastator: I really am in favor of choosing the most boring front to the cult as possible.
14:41:59 syv: Yeah. Church seems like a poor idea, since it's already suspected of occultism. But hey, maybe there's baddies to punch.
14:43:50 Devastator: Just wear a suit with a white shirt and tie and knock on some doors with really boring material.
14:44:02 Devastator: Nobody suspects people that boring to be cultists.
14:49:13 Devastator: How are you finding CULT?
14:51:53 syv: Nyeh. Not terribly interested, but I don't have to be to play.
14:52:57 Devastator: well, if there's church baddies, you'll get to punch people.
14:53:04 Devastator: Or spin-kick, being Guile.
14:54:47 Devastator: I haven't been following it, but it seems the interior of the tank is still the place to be.
14:55:16 syv: Simon may or may not be about to TPK the entire brigade.
14:55:46 Devastator: I doubt it,
PW isn't much of a fan of that. ;-p
14:55:55 syv: We found an elevator under the final bunker, and drove the tank onto it, along with everyone else. Then we got carried down into an underground lab while the lightning storm destroys the bunker above us.
14:56:38 syv: There's a big metal door in front of us, so the tank's ramming it down, and Simon's firing a HE shell into the hole as soon as it's open, no questions asked.
14:57:01 syv: HE inside of a cave isn't very healthy, though yeah, I doubt it'll kill anyone on our side.
14:57:40 Devastator: Yeah, should be okay. I doubt the giant metal doors are in front of a small space.
14:57:54 syv: Yeah, I wouldn't be doing it if I thought we wouldn't be fine. Buuut most of the infantry is panicking and screaming about it, and those that aren't are just kinda resigned.
14:57:59 Devastator: Everyone in the tank will be fine, and those behind the tank should be in good shape.
14:58:31 syv: One of the people personally threatened to murder Simon with a knife if he tried this. So Simon locked the tank's hatch and then started taunting him.
14:58:49 Devastator: I mean, it's not a small boom, but it should be surviveable. Worst case is that it'll open onto a 90 degree turn, with a wall 15 feet ahead of the tank.
14:59:10 Devastator: You shouldn't cause a cave-in, either. Not in a massive concrete bunker.
14:59:14 syv: That would be pretty bad for pretty much everyone not behind cover, yeah.
14:59:53 Devastator: I'd expect either a big room, or at least a long hallway, though.
14:59:56 syv: We're over a hundred feet underground, I think, so yeah. Cave in is unlikely. Plus there's a big long tunnel behind us, we're not in a tiny room or anything.
15:00:01 Devastator: Possibly a ramp further down.
15:00:49 syv: Still, it *is* a Piecewise universe, so
Piecewise rules win. And those rules make it most likely that the tank simply won't fire, and least likely that rocks will fall and everyone will die.
15:01:20 Devastator: I'd bet the tank will fire, though, and shoot the boss, ending the mission quickly.
15:01:24 Devastator: This one's been running some time, right?
15:02:06 syv: Yeah, this is definitely the finale.
15:02:29 Devastator: That might increase the odds of a tank shot.
15:02:41 Devastator:
PW's been okay with dungeon bypasses via excessive firepower before.
15:04:44 Devastator: No, actually worst case scenario is the tank just clangs against the metal doors and the shell blows up inside the gun.
15:04:54 Devastator: I very much don't expect that, though.
15:07:49 syv: Simon has no tank skill whatsoever, so it's barely even got a 50% chance of being helpful.
15:13:10 Devastator: What's the tank skill?
15:14:08 syv: You can also use "Explosives" for the main gun, I think, but Simon doesn't have that either.
15:15:41 Devastator: I take it the reason Simon's firing the gun is because nobody can remove him from it, then. ;-p
15:16:37 syv: The previous gunner and loader got out, and everyone who cares is locked out, so... yeah, pretty much.

15:19:45 Radio_Controlled: How's it going in here?
15:20:59 Radio_Controlled: Doing paperwork over here, and it blows.
15:21:10 syv: Decent. We've been discussing the imminent lack of disaster in 888th.
15:21:28 Radio_Controlled: Really? Better rectify that.
15:21:37 Radio_Controlled: Quickly, throw some nades around.
15:21:41 syv:
Dev is confident that nothing bad will happen beyond the boss being oneshot and all the loot being destroyed.
15:22:07 syv: I think at worst Simon will destroy his tank.
15:22:08 Radio_Controlled: I'm about to peek though the doors, so best case scenario is I get squished between tank and door before that.
15:22:33 syv: I hope your action doesn't trigger the "Don't murder allies" clause.
15:23:11 Devastator: Life isn't fun without ally murdering.
15:23:26 syv has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
15:23:40 Radio_Controlled: You scared him away
dev.
15:23:46 Radio_Controlled: You and your ally murdering talk.
15:24:19 Devastator: Yes. Apparently
syv, who is running a game about the suffering of little girls, is scared of such talk. ;-p
15:25:20 syv has joined #einsteinianroulette
15:26:00 Radio_Controlled: Hmm, and your mentioning of little girls has brought him back.
15:26:15 Radio_Controlled: Anything you would like to tell us about that, syvvy boy?
15:26:21 Radio_Controlled: *holds up tape recorder*
15:26:37 syv: I like torturing vulnerable innocent people who can't do anything about it.
15:27:01 syv: Little boys and girls work well for that, but I can't have them falling in love, so little girls it is.
15:27:57 Radio_Controlled: Yeah, that checks out.
15:29:43 Radio_Controlled: But yes, it is funny how some people are freaking out.
15:30:13 Radio_Controlled: Though why they'd want to knife fight you eludes me. Just lob some nades into the tank!
15:30:22 Devastator: He locked the hatch.
15:31:13 syv: They want to take the tank for themselves!
15:32:07 Radio_Controlled: Nade the barrel then!
15:32:21 Radio_Controlled: Or clog the exhaust maybe.
15:32:51 Devastator: shoot into the gunslits.
15:33:12 Radio_Controlled: Not sure how big those are on the tank they have actually.
15:33:33 syv: I don't think the IV has vulnerable gunslits...
15:33:38 Radio_Controlled: What kind of tank did you find again?
15:34:40 syv: Attacking the people in the tank from outside the tank does seem like a bad way to make them not kill you, though.
15:35:05 Radio_Controlled: To be fair, the reverse goes as well.
15:37:42 syv: Well, sure, but Simon's in a tank. He's not terribly worried about being killed.
15:38:56 Radio_Controlled: Even when fully bunkering down, tanks aren't exactly invulnerable.
15:39:40 syv: Pfff, it's a metal box, what're those shmucks gonna do?
15:39:48 Radio_Controlled: Like I said, I think clogging the exhaust would get to them?
15:40:05 syv: Simon'll just have Alice run 'em over or something.
15:40:51 Radio_Controlled: How will you know they are clogging the exhaust?
15:41:59 Radio_Controlled: Tanker spidey sense?
15:43:03 Radio_Controlled: (this assuming there are indeed no slits or other spots that can be fired/nades into, if there are then it's more straightforward)
15:43:38 syv: Simon will just know. Sniper sense.
15:43:53 Radio_Controlled: Hell, a small molotov near the ventilation should smoke the crew out fairly quickly.
15:43:55 syv: Also, like, whoever does it will warn him.
15:44:22 syv: I don't need to be wise, my allies/aggressors just need to be dumb.
15:44:34 Radio_Controlled: Then we can have smoked salmo- erm, Simon for dinner!
15:44:47 Devastator: ..why would the vent be right next to the sealed door?
15:44:51 Devastator: It'd be some distance away.
15:45:32 Devastator: "Hey, look at this sealed door."
15:45:46 Devastator: "We should just go through this cheap air vent right next to it."
15:46:05 Radio_Controlled: I was talking about a small molotov/fire near the tank's ventilation intake(s).
15:47:03 Devastator: that makes more sense.
15:47:17 Devastator: How would you do that without smoking out the guys next to the tank?
15:47:23 Radio_Controlled: Do keep up, my dear. :p
15:47:47 Radio_Controlled: The fact that the tank is a much smaller confined space than the complex we are in.
15:47:49 syv: Well, we're in a tunnel. The smoke outside the tank can just rise.
15:49:17 Radio_Controlled: Besides, this is assuming the tank crew just devastated the infantry with an ill-advised shot, so revenge might be higher on their priority list than self-preservation.
15:50:23 syv: Also, revenge might not be very successful, since Simon can fire a lot more point-blank HE rounds before being smoked out...
15:50:44 Radio_Controlled: Then we all die!
15:51:20 syv: Better him and his killers than just him alone@
15:51:48 Radio_Controlled: Better him and the people he killed and the people that took revenge for the second, you mean.
15:52:38 Radio_Controlled: Or, they take the elevator up with the wounded with the promise of coming back for you, then forget to send the elevator back down.
15:53:23 syv: The bunker above was destroyed by lightning, so...
15:53:41 Radio_Controlled: "Oops, did we leave Teamkiller Tank down in the mountain? Oh well, too bad."
15:53:52 syv: You're trapped down here with Simon~
15:53:58 Radio_Controlled: As long as the lift works, that's fine.
15:56:09 Radio_Controlled: By the by, did the bunker actually get destroyed? Like, did we confirm that, or just guess that from the sounds we heard in the distance?
15:56:45 syv: Also, the entirely ceiling was glowing because it was being hit by a lightning laser, so that kinda implies it didn't do so well.
15:58:23 Radio_Controlled: Maybe it just had some neat holes melted into it.
15:58:49 Radio_Controlled: Creates a nice patio with natural sunlight, you know.
15:59:04 Radio_Controlled: Really ups the property value.
15:59:30 Devastator: didn't you tell me just the other day that lightning wasn't a good weapon?
15:59:57 syv: Me, I think. And it's terrible, yeah.
16:00:38 syv: As shown by the fact that it's been hunting Simon all mission, and he's still alive.
16:00:49 syv: But you use enough of it, you can achieve some impressive stuff. You just can't kill Simon.
16:01:11 Radio_Controlled: Given this is an era before precision/guided munitions, it at least seems to be more accurate than regular arty.
16:03:33 syv: Arty's also a pretty poor weapon. The Russians tried it on Simo, but he was taken out by an honest-to-goodness sniper!
16:07:45 Radio_Controlled: Aren't more kills made with arty and resulting shrapnel than with small arms fire?
16:08:14 syv: Shush you, SNIPERS win wars!
16:08:53 Radio_Controlled: Right, I forgot, we're fighting in world war meme.
16:12:01 Radio_Controlled: Gotta got for a little while, should be back later.
16:12:32 Radio_Controlled: Entertain yourselves by bringing knives to a gun fight while I'm gone, mkay?

17:43:14 Radio_Controlled: Step up your game, sheesh.
17:43:32 Devastator: The idiot who decided to stand in front of the tank.
17:44:09 Devastator: And it wasn't you,
syv.
17:44:52 Radio_Controlled: I was one of those idiots, and we had our actions in before the tank in fact.
17:45:30 Devastator: yeah,
PW didn't let you shoot.
17:47:02 syv: Dude gets run over by a tank, and is still alive.
17:47:39 Devastator: Mind you, the other day I heard about someone who decided to contain the explosion from a stick of dynamite by squeezing it between his legs.
17:47:43 Radio_Controlled: You only got the bottom half.
17:47:56 Devastator: I'd put that comparable to getting run over by a tank.
17:48:06 Radio_Controlled:
PW did say in discord he's in very bad shape and might bleed out.
17:48:28 Radio_Controlled: You didn't fully squeeze him out like an old tube of toothpaste, so to speak.
17:48:58 Radio_Controlled: Try harder scrubs.
17:49:21 Radio_Controlled: Christ, a working Panzer IV and they can't even manage one measly team kill.
17:49:55 Devastator: Have to order those explictily, I think.
17:49:58 Devastator: Why didn't
syv fire?
17:50:00 Radio_Controlled: Hell, it's worse!
17:50:02 Devastator: The doors are open.
17:50:30 syv:
Piecewise said my "common sense is tingling".
17:50:47 syv: I apparently got a [5] on the cowardice check. -.-
17:51:13 Devastator: Maybe you were going to blow open a tank with a monster in it.
17:51:13 Radio_Controlled: You gonna let him crimp your style like that?!
17:51:40 Devastator: And the monster's strength is based on how hard it is first hit. ;-p
17:51:52 Radio_Controlled: In fact, back up to let the medics work on that guy, /then/ surge forward firing blindly to make sure you get all of them this time.
17:52:58 syv: You need to tell that to Egan, not me.
17:53:47 Radio_Controlled: You are the nominal tank bossman, take some responsability for once in your life.
17:54:19 Devastator: I think the driver outranks the gunner, normally.
17:54:56 syv: Simon's the commander, he's just manning the gun because the gunner left.
17:55:03 syv: And also because it's fun.
17:56:11 syv: No, no, Radio. Simon's a good commander, he knows how to *delegate*. Currently he's delegating the duty of efficiently murdering the rest of our allies to Alice, because she seems pretty good at it already.
17:58:03 Devastator: But there's no kaboom!
17:58:40 Radio_Controlled: The people demand kaboom!
17:58:51 Radio_Controlled: We must not allow a kablooie gap with the ruskies!
18:00:43 Devastator: I am the people, and I demand more kaboom!
18:00:53 Radio_Controlled: And I demand dinner!
18:06:50 Devastator: anyway, heading out in about an hour,
syv.
18:07:16 ER has joined #einsteinianroulette
18:08:58 Devastator: You failed to complete the kill,
ER.
18:09:24 syv: Shame on you, Simon looks down on those who only half-kill people.
18:09:36 ER: I have no idea what the fuck yer on aboot
18:09:40 syv: Mostly because he's in the turret and therefore above Alice, but still.
18:10:49 ER: I turn on IRC the very first thing when I boot my computer, and it loads considerably faster than Chrome.
18:11:06 ER: So you can assume that I know absolutely nothing upon join
18:18:38 syv: It'll be quite amusing if the man permanently injured by the tank ends up crewing the tank.
18:19:03 syv: Yeah, he can be a fine loader/gunner.
18:19:23 Devastator: Don't you need legs to be a loader, because you need to bend down to get the ammo?
18:19:45 syv: He can just sit on his stumps and hand it up.
18:19:55 ER: Also, if you unlock that hatch I'm gonna stab you can then lock the hatch again. Kinda rather we didn't have our "allies" climbing in here.
18:20:05 syv: Or maybe we can rig something up.
18:20:19 ER: Maybe we aught to preemtively strike the ones with antitank weaponry.
18:20:22 syv: That's a good point, Elegant Retrieval.
18:23:08 Devastator: Anyone bring any flamethrowers into this bunker?
18:23:54 syv: I think the only flamethrower guy used his entire fuel backpack as a bomb.
18:24:48 syv: That is to say, I know one guy did that, I'm just not sure if he was the only one with a flamethrower.
18:25:02 syv: Also, the kicker? The tank entered that bunker next turn, anyway.
18:25:22 ER: the bunker was killed by two tanks
18:26:24 syv: That legit made me burst out laughing
18:27:56 Devastator: doesn't the tank ahve a fuel tank?
18:28:51 syv: I don't think we can detach it and use it ss a bomb though, so what's the point?
18:28:52 Devastator: It's powered by Nazi Magic.
18:29:02 Devastator: ..yeah, and the tank already has bombs in it.

18:49:53 syv: Nah,
Dev's *

18:49:56 Radio_Controlled: You have a panzer IV tank and a target rich environment and yet didn't manage to kill one measly trooper.
18:50:13 syv: To be fair we were barely trying.
18:51:11 Radio_Controlled: You have a panzer IV tank and a target rich environment and you are lackadaisical about it?
18:51:20 Radio_Controlled: Bah, youngsters these days.
18:51:44 ER: I did suggest killing anyone around us with antitank weapons.
18:51:51 Radio_Controlled: Why, back in my day we gave it /our very best/ every time we mowed down scores of our own men.
18:54:50 Devastator: Do you mean killing, by use of anti-tank weapons, everyone around you, or killing everyone around you who is equipped with anittank weapons?
18:55:38 syv: I don't actually think anyone nearby HAS AT.
18:56:01 syv: Satchel charges and the like, yeah, but no recoilless rifles I don't think. Unsure, though.
18:56:01 ER: Hmm, isn't everyone down here?
18:56:11 ER: Surely someone has some rrs
18:56:28 syv: Yes, but tank hunter is a weirdly unpopular class, despite obviously being the best.
18:57:53 ER: To be fair, the only person to have successfully hunted a tank if you, using a knife.
18:58:43 ER: the best weapon against armor is convincing your enemy to not wear a helmet.
18:59:21 syv: Last tank hunter to post was Twinwolf, on Dec 5th.
19:00:11 Radio_Controlled: Nope, got obliviated from existence.
19:00:32 Devastator: I'll be back in a few hours.
19:01:42 Radio_Controlled: So do we now gossip about him while he's gone?
19:02:14 syv: We do that while he's here all the time.
19:03:43 Radio_Controlled: Well see, /I/ heard he told Charlie to tell Brenda that Candice's hair is just, waaaay gross girl.
19:26:35 Radio_Controlled:
