Re: Project Horizons RP thread

Scyto...if you think, that you could talk this through, we'll cover you. And if you couldn't.
*pauses for a second* Try get all foals out of there.


You got a point, Moody...but non-lethal ammo is rare in wasteland..unless.
Guys! I know! Police station! The one, I've got my armor from. There could be non-lethal ammo. At least let's give it a try!

[jacky2734]

You mean the police station back in the direction where there was a Raptor after you?

[Guest]

*thinks*
Ya'know we could just come up with an R.o.E. so we don't kill the wrong folks.

[Aonee]

Well... That's interesting. Soo... stop by that police station, pick up non-leathal ammo, see what Scyto can do about the cult, save the foals if he can't. Sounds like a pretty good plan to me.

[Katarn]

The police station, where, as I recon, we pick up Scyto.
And do you think Raptor will still be looking for us? It's been few days already. They either know where we are and don't give a damn or don't and Raptor isn't a thing, which will patrol for little group of ponies, like us.

[Moodyman90]

"R.o.E? Is that some kind of unicorn magic thing?"
Moody just looks at him with a confused look.
"We may have luck with the police stations... unless they've been looted and the others didn't care what they grabbed."

[jacky2734]

You don't need to worry about the children.

*Pats staff*

It doesn't harm innocents.

*Hears Moody and facepalms*

It stands for rules of engagement, Moody.

[Aonee]

Uhh... about that... I looked at some of the plans on the Raptor, and it said they had a time schedule before attacking New Filly. Which probably means they won't be hunting for us. And even if they were, that sky-clearing thing might have taken the clouds that hold a Raptor up as well.
Speaking of which, *Looks outside* I think we should come up with a name for that event...

[MrMagma]

Moody, it stands for Rules of Engagement. How, why and when to engage your enemy and so on.
If we're using guns in the first place, wouldn't they be more likely to shoot us? I say we wait for them to make the first move, see what they try to do.

[Guest]

* Stretches.*So there's some sort of power struggle in Fried? If we attack the cultist do you think the PAZI will attack them?

[Scyto Harmony]

Uhm, the foals are hardly innocent...

[Katarn]

Yeah, police station is long shot, but..if we could make it bloodless..or at least with as little blood as possible...
True, there are high probability, that we wouldn't find there ammo we are looking fro. But if foals will be caught in firefight...

[Scyto Harmony]

*Clears throat* I should probably mention the foals are some of our best fighters... aheh...

[Guest]

*looks at Moody*
They're Rules of Engagement. basically who to shoot and who not to shoot.
*looks at everyone*
I know y'all probably don't want to separate but Mav and I are gonna need to be pretty faraway. So if I miss Mav and I have time to scoot.

[MrMagma]

What the fuck?! Are you fucking kidding me Scyto? Did ANYONE there have morales? A sense of decency and honour to defend there own children with their very lives? Just..buh...*Babbles incoherently*

[Scyto Harmony]

Hey, we're doing those foals a favor! None of you have ever been to Fried, have you? Average lifespan is about only three years.

[Katarn]

Gah! Why everything isn't easy in this wretched wasteland! What now, foals kills everyone, torture?! What?! Just tell me, that they were forced to! Just tell me and I'll kill whoever responsible for this!

[Aonee]

What do you mean "The foals are some of your best fighters"?!? Seriously, what the hell? Is there any reason we shouldn't wipe them out? I mean really, if that was the cult under YOUR control, what would it be like now?

[jacky2734]

*Looks at Scyto*
Innocence is not for a mortal to decide. From what you've said, it sounds like the only ones guilty are the ones who transformed the foals into killing machines.
*Sighs*
Don't worry, I'll only use it as an absolute last resort.

[Moodyman90]

"Oh.. that. Sorry if I'm not familiar with those seeing how most caravans I've been with have operate on "protect the cargo by killing anything that attacks." Never had to kill foals before but I've also never had them attacking me either."
He just shakes his head.
"Hopefully that won't change."

[Guest]

Scyto, If I go in with you will they shoot me on sight? *Straps on hellhound gauntlets.* Your going to have to lead me to war. I don't want to wander around aimlessly.

[Guest]

*pats Moody's shoulder*
None of us want it to come to that. Scyto the foals are they led by an adult? I can try to pick off the one leadin' them hopefully causin' the foals to run.

[Scyto Harmony]

No no no! I'm still head prophet, by the Queen's law. As long as you're with me, you'll be fine.

... I hope.

Look - let's not pick any fights, alright? Just... keep your mouths shut, we'll take to the big four, and then be on our way.

[MrMagma]

Don't worry Last. Your friendly neighbourhood necromancer will be escorting you and Scyto to War. As much as I hate the plan, especially now that I know the kids are more likely to try and kill me than the rest, I guess I've already signed myself up to it. Fuck the Wasteland.

[Aonee]

Ugh... Really Scyto, whose idea was it to have foals be fighters?

[Scyto Harmony]

No - The kids are just members - we don't discriminate via age! Just... look, half of the cult are non-combatants, so if we just waltz in there, guns blazing, ponies are going to get the wrong idea!

[Scyto Harmony]

Some fight, some are cooks, some are comedians!

[Moodyman90]

"Alright, so in the least Scyto, Last, Kage and Flame are going in with Guard and Mav acting as long range sniper support. I don't think all of us should go in so they don't think we're just there to kill them all or take over, but the rest of us should still be nearby in case things do go wrong.
His eye starts twitching.
"And something tells me it will..."

[Katarn]

Fuck, indeed...but I don't think I could kill a foal...even if I have to...
*rubs his face with hooves*
Right, be positive, everything will go fine, four leaders of cult wouldn't do anything and everything will end up in sunshine and rainbows....
*puts on his grim face*
I hate wasteland...there are no happy endings in it.

[Aonee]

That's probably because the Wasteland hates ponies. So, I guess Crys an I will stay by the sky wagon in case we need a quick escape?
