Will follow the Ork deeper in until they encounter the first sacs, stopping before it and staring down at it as something within slowly moves.

"Unknown xenoforms."

She takes a step backwards as her mechadendrite sticks straight ahead, her Auspex scanning down the hallway. She shifts to position herself behind Silaster, her rifle pointing forward down the hallway.

Disgusting ratling utters as when notice sack are moving. Disgusting he keep repeating time to time obviously freaking out and trying to keep close to Ol' Toothy. For some reason he would think bigger Orc would be a more attractive target than he is.

"What're you waiting for?" Ol' Toothy shakes his head, pressing on regardless of Silaster's attempts to forestall him. He casually draws his slugger, shooting at one of the flesh sacks as he passes. The sound of the gun, amplified by it's modifications, fills the corridor and he grins as the noise gives him a rush. "You'ze get so scared, 'umies, pointy ears. Figured you'd be no help."

"If our mysterious enemy did not know of our coming yet, they most certainly do now," Razick mutters, just loud enough to be heard by those around him. "The stealthy approach is likely pointless now."

The Kroot continues to move through the corridor, making certain to avoid touching the pulsating sacks of flesh scattered about. Their origin and purpose were still unknown, so it was best to avoid contact as much as possible.

"It's quite a shame the greenskins have such a damnably high reproductive rate. They would have wiped themselves out millennia ago if not for that."

She observed in silence and shadow. The taint of heresy lay thick upon the path of duty. The Death Cultist's body was charged like a spring, ready to strike swift death. Her twin swords were an extension of her core. Her thumbs hovered over their activation studs... Soon... soon there would be glorious death...

Kaelith, looks at the walls and the ceiling, even there he notes more of the strange things. Breathing?

When Ol’ Toothy shoots a sack the shot strikes true and the sack explodes with a resounding BOOM!!

The echoes of the explosion resound down the hallway and back slowly fading until you hear clicking on the floor. More and then more clicking a veritable tide and then you see them. The creatures coming down the hall are a foul mashup of species. Orc heads on human bodies, Aeldari and human mixed together, legs where arms should be and heads where hands should be and eyes in all the wrong places. As if some child had simply grabbed pieces of each species and shoved it together with another.

The wave rushing towards you is hundreds, some touch the pods and explosions blow them apart only for more to fill the gaps. A rushing tide of creatures that have no fear and the only sounds are the explosions and the clicking of their feet, all of the feet are some sort of metallic hoof…
OOC:
Combat begins. First come first served. You have 3/3 rounds until your current position is overrun.

"Eere we go! Das more like it." Ol' Toothy doesn't spare a thought for the abominable misshapen entities. Instead he draws what appears to be an axe with custom additions like barbed wire. He tests his wrist as he starts forward, before bellowing his Waaagh and charging headlong into the creatures.
OOC:
Are we making it to melee range this turn, because if not I'll fire with my slugga.

OOC:
You may rush into melee if you wish. DM makes no guarantees on survival.

OOC:
Could we clarify the situation please.
- Our ship: is it still there landed and it is feasible to retreat to ship, rise using it's elevator (it was ship's elevator we were using to get here, want' it?) and close it shut to not let any monster get in. Maybe even use some of the ship's weapons to clean the area?

- How far are the threat? I've got long range 54, can I shoot one?

- How do we run combat here on PbP - as per rules: once any player post their turn everyone else hold on until GM makes a turn by a threat, right?

- In this combat - are we treating the hundreds of threat? Do I need to read rules for Mob before making my attack?

P.S. Sorry for the amount of questions
Jan 24, 2026 6:56 pm
OOC: waiting for clarifications above

OOC:
You have exited your ship and gone past the other ships in the docking bay. After that the only direction available was a huge empty hallway. You may retreat back to your ship or back into the docking bay behind other people’s barricades.

Edit: Each Target Defense = 4

2) The first player to post in the combat turn will go first then the enemy and then the next player until everyone has gone. If you want to arrange for someone to go first ensure that you discuss in OOC.

3) You may, if you wish use a point of glory to seize the initiative and have a PC go before an enemy

OOC:
@Ysolde Are there still some of the pod/sacks left and usable by us or will they be all hit by the stampede moving towards us? What about the ones hanging, how can I make them usable to inflict damage on the enemies?

OOC:
Most of the sacks on the ground exploded only for the creatures to fill in. The ones on the walls though could be used that way. As long as you don’t just blow them up on the wall itself. Also note, the explosions didn’t even scratch the walls or the floor.

Roaring as he runs, Ol' Toothy swings his axe in a narrow arc using his weight and it's to bury it deep into the first attacker he can find. He grins and laughs as he pulls it back ready to strike again.
OOC:
That's 5 successes, since I won't shift. I forgot the Wrath die so I assume I'll add a die to check if there's a crit or complication but not add it to the successes regardless of result?

If 5 successes hit then that'll be 12 damage.

Toothy runs forward his axe cleaving through the monstrosity in front of him. Yellow ichor sprays from the wound giving the hallway a smell like rotten eggs. The creature scrabbles and scratches at the orc but it’s meager claws are not nearly enough to harm an Orc Boy.

Kaelith takes a firm stance and aims at the sacks on the walls. Their weight pulls them down slightly, making the fastenings visible – and targetable.

He begins firing rapidly, from right to left, to make the sacks rain down on the stampede and explode.

Pods fall from the walls in the middle and back row of the oncoming assault. More yellow ichor sprays out and the stench becomes even worse. The splattered droplets on the ground begin to sublimate into an odorous toxic gas.

Anyone near the creatures must make a toughness check difficulty 1 or take a wound from the gas.

2 of the creatures scratch at the Ork but neither seems to do much damage.

With combat upon them, the Skitarius' combat subroutines take over, her body moving like the machine it (mostly) is, firing at the two on the flanks of the closest group.
OOC:
I'm a bit rusty, so hopefully this is all right. I'll multiattack the two on the far left and right of row closest to Ol'Toothy, so just a normal shot here with aiming plus close range. I'll roll the wrath die separately. First rolls will be for left and then for right.
OOC:
Ooft, 1 on the wrath die out the gate hahaha. I just barely hit on the second target, so no rending going off here. Rapid fire does give +1 ED though. So that's 12 damage all up, AP 0.

Razick grumbles a bit and charges into the fray surrounding Toothy, swinging his rifle like a staff as he attempts to cut down one of the creatures with a bladed rifle stock.
OOC:
5 successes with a Wrath crit to hit, for 17 total damage to the creature to the left of Toothy.
