Re: [SoRtD] Adventures of the Ulysses, Pt. 1 "I'm thinking more incredibly hostile aliens, probably with sharp claws and teeth. Zombies? No. Vicious insectoids from hell? Maybe. Imminent death? Most likely."
Turn on florhslihgt, walk w/ squad.

Re: [SoRtD] Adventures of the Ulysses, Pt. 1 Activate helmet spotlamps and weapon light, then move up as the squad does.

Androids are not shoddily assembled, and those that enlist for military service are usually kept in top form or even upgraded. An android that gives the location of his squad away to anyone nearby simply by moving poses a threat to all of his squadmates. Admittedly I probably should've chosen my words better, but for casual listeners it's hard to tell the difference between the footsteps of a military android and a normal soldier. Gotcha. Good to know. >Follow the others."I'm pretty sure we're just going to run into more robots. Or whatever was chasing us earlier."
"But... It might be zombies."

Re: [SoRtD] Adventures of the Ulysses, Pt. 1 Saber Squad - Taris Rapid Transit System, Level A
Descending through the transit system entrance... the walls and floor are sparkling white tile with meandering coloured lines, abstract representations of the transit system routes. The ticket barriers are locked open... still no signs of any colonists.
It isn't hard to find a map of the main lines, but a tunnel map? Fortunately Intel is kind enough to provide one you can view on your helmet eyepieces, top-down super-imposed over your field of view in a manner reminiscent of Doom, with a big arrow giving you the general direction you should be going in, occasionally changing direction and marking off completed waypoints.
The tunnels are quiet, save for the sound of fans keeping the air fresh and the squad rambling at each other, voices echoing back from some of the longer tunnels. Tunnel lighting is actually pretty good. There are no signs of damage or significant disrepair to the various tunnel walls or stations you pass on the way...
Eerie, almost. But you're just jumping at shadows, surely.

Re: [SoRtD] Adventures of the Ulysses, Pt. 1 "...Spiders sounds like a pretty bad way to go, do you know how they kill stuff? They pump your body full of a dissolving agent, and when your insides are nice and squishy they slurp you up like a thick-shake..."
Try to spark up a conversation. If no one replies, start talking to a coms-officer at HQ via the Tacti-net thing, preferably female.

Re: [SoRtD] Adventures of the Ulysses, Pt. 1 Keep on walkin' and talkin'.
"Yeah, but with zombies, if you're bit once, you know you're going to eventually die. And it might take a few minutes, a few hours, or even a day or two. It's the knowing that's the worst part. The knowing and the waiting."

Re: [SoRtD] Adventures of the Ulysses, Pt. 1 "Zombies ain't scary in the slightest. Yes, they might be the walking dead, but they still need to breath, otherwise, they die. Zombies can't break the laws of physics. Spiders are pretty nasty indeed. Especially the trap door ones. Your just walking along and then the spider grabs you and pulls you into its underground bunker."
"And you know what's worse? There's no way to see one coming!"
Go with the squad.

Re: [SoRtD] Adventures of the Ulysses, Pt. 1 >Go go power rangers with the rest of the group
"The worst thing ever would probably be creatures that emit an EMP pulse. That'd be really scary."
