There is a rocket that will impact the base.

What do you expect will happen here?!

EDIT: I would also like to point out that by shooting the rocket, you will accomplish one thing only: One big piece of flying metal and crab will turn into many smaller pieces of flying metal and crab.

I didn't even know it was hitting the base until someone recently mentioned it, after I posted my action; if I remember, I state again, the rocket was falling, not flying, where the helicopter was, not the base.

I CARE NOT!
I'm gonna roll, at minimum a 3, so I doubt too much can go wrong.

But those pieces wont be able to follow you around like a whole rocket would.

-edit-

and double ninja

Falling or flying, it doesn't matter much at this point. It has all the kinetic energy from moving in a more-or-less direct line from orbit.

@Foil: It's a transport rocket, last I knew, with a designated drop point, not targeted at any one of us.

The only reason I stated that it was falling, was that it was also above the helicopter; the helicopter is far away from the base, so if we hid IN the base, we'd be fine. But since it is FLYING, that means that it flew from the helicopter to here. But it was falling, I believe, so it should have hit the crash site. Also, I need help. I'm playing Dwarf Fortress and forgot how to assign dwarves different jobs. They aren't doing anything other than designations; how do I make them masons/tend animals/train animals/farm/etc.?

This is the way to go.

You know what, screw it.

Stay with duh and, manning the 50 call, take hell towards the rocket.

"TONIGHT I WILL HOPEFULLY DINE AT MCDONALD'S

Hmmm...Yoman, which would be safer? You said buildings would protect us, but then the only buildings within 1 roll are the target of the rocket. But if we go AWAY, then we don't have buildings as cover.

EDIT: I thought that was a program called 'Dwarf The Rapist' based on the link's lack of spaces.

Please cut the discussion of anything but RTD stuff, it's not contributing to anything.

Anything I say will always be true, because I (and RDM) am in charge of this game.

If I say that buildings will be good cover, well then they are.
If I say a Transportation Rocket filled to MOID-Limit and falling at maximum velocity is directed towards the base, then it is.

If I say that this rocket was once making the sound of a jet fighter or a helicopter then it was.

And if I say that anything and everything you do or do not do may or may not be futile, then everything, anything and nothing is and possibly is not futile.

GOD I love Tautology

Oh and Roll is coming soon.

Still waiting on that roll. Even if I know we're pretty much screwed.

Game Events:
The rocket explodes above the base, due to Andrew's shooting, and scatters metal and fleshy debris all over the compound. Some chunks are as big as footballs, some as small as peas.

Luckily, Rachel, Andrew and Tyrone are covered by the concrete wall on their right as well as the tree canopy. Little pieces patter like rain on the leaves, but a fist-sized chunk slams between Tyrone's legs, barely missing his crotch area.

Fiona is dazed, lying in the dirt, when the Rocket explodes. Bits fly over her head like boomerangs and bullets, and the flaming head-cap of the rocket impacts nearby and showers her with dirt.

Lucky.

Vladimir, however, not so much. Sprinting to the Armoury, he sees a fine wire across the entrance. He skids to a stop, "Vait!" but BJJ runs straight into him. They tumble forward and land on top of the wire. A large blast ensues and both pass out, Vladimir crushed beneath BJJ's heavy armour.

The time is 5:00pm.

Map: You are at the little base in the middle, after the horseshoe bend.
