-On TV-

NEWS REPORT - 19TH DECEMBER, 2016

"Today, the UN forcefully invaded Serbia, Norway and Croatia in a shock move. When asked why, the spokesman said: "We need a unified world. We invited the countries to the UN, but they refused, and we need to take control of them through any means necessary." Russia, Macedonia and several other countries have declared war on the EU, and united into the NFI, Nations For Independance. This is the begging of World War 3, some say. Several forces around the EU have defected, including the French Naval Commandos, US Delta Force and rumors say even the British SAS. In other news, a man has been found tied under a bridge with 9 knives sticking in his arms, legs, chest and... OH FUCK, NFI BOMBERS!" -An explosion is heard and the TV Station goes static-

Your Captain turns off the TV, and you look around the room. It has white walls and one door, leading to a corridor containing an armory, bedrooms, gym, hangar and briefing room.

"So they know we have turned traitor. We need to get out of here fast." says the Captain.

He is fairly tall, with a scraggly black beard and wild, yet short, black hair. His eyes are brown, and full of sorrow and pain. He is wearing a SAS combat uniform, with no helmet.

"Get to the armory, take what you need, and meet in the hangar within 10 minutes. CLEAR?" he snaps.

"Sir, yes, Sir." you and the other SAS answer as one.

"THEN MOVE!" he shouts.

You all rush to the armory, and look at the available weapons:

10 C8 SFW Rifles (basic assault rifles, normal fire rate, normal range, can be used with any scope and underslung grenade launchers)
10 Heckler and Koch MP5s (machine guns, high fire rate, low range, can be used with any scope and underslung weapons and silencer)

Browning High Power (a powerful, accurate pistol)
10 Sig Sauer P230s (concealable pistol with less power than other guns)
5 Remington 870s (shotgun with high power and good accuracy, but low breaching power, can be sawn off)

GAMEPLAY

The gameplay features weight limits, hostage situations and stealth along with firefights and sniping. You can carry up to 50 kg of equipment. You get a major and minor action, and have to work as a team to do well (+3 to rolls when working as a team). I roll a d20 to decide what happens.

CHARACTERS

There are 10 SAS troopers including the leader. All except the leader can be taken over and given personalities and looks other than a silent, follow all orders type man. When you quit, your character is NPC'ed until someone else takes control of them. When they die, the next character pops in when you work with others units.

Introduction

Taking your chosen weapons from the shelves, you place them and some other useful items such as rations into your rucksacks. Then you rush to the hangar, hearing the wail of aircraft in the distance.

One of the other SAS members speaks: "I listened to their comms. They're gonnna try to seize the base to keep all the tech in one piece."

The captain hears: "Do we stay and fight, and risk death, or fly away, risking Eurofighter strikes?" he mutters as though to himself.

Spoiler:

Up to you what you do. Obviously, other options are allowed (like drive off in jeep or walk off, risking airstrikes, or surrender)

Roll #1

Arthur Bonnington (Frogger): (No roll needed) You see a good control tower for sniping from, and pinpoint the location enemies will come from, which is a main hangar door, but also see a side door on the left they could sneak in through.

"Anyone got a pilot licence?"

Jessica Williams (8680): 8 - You quickly copy most of the info then wipe the rest. Then remember: You forgot the override codes data!

Grayson (Rulyon): 9 - You blow up all the tech.

Aeryn Pierre: 1+3=4 - You fumble and drop the claymores all over the floor, and tell the others about your pilot skills.

Fred Baker: The enemies have yet to arrive.

Roll #2

Grayson (Rulyon): (9+3=12) You pull the rifle off of your armored back and climb the ladder to the platform of the watch tower, ready to take down any enemies bold enough to enter the hangar and attempt to take down Jessica.

Arthur Bonningtion (Frogger): (5) You place all the claymores at the entrances, then realize... You forgot to turn most on, and trying to activate them would trigger the one active one. You sigh and take a step back, then turn to face Jessica.

"Jessica, can you get any of these things working?" you ask.

"I could, but your damn mines will probably blow it up!" she replies angrily.

Jessica Williams (8680): (4) You look around after replying to Arthur, but find out that both entrances are mined. You get out your rifle anyway. The enemies might not notice the mines and charge anyway. You crouch near an entrance, rifle aimed at the grassy slope leading up to it.

Aeryn Pierre (Do I really need to say this?): (7) You go to take the unused claymores, but see there isn't any. Then you realize a problem in the improvised escape plan.

"I can't believe you fools are even talking about flying still. Where would we go they didn't know about? If we're gonna take a chopper or what not, we needa steal one of theirs so that they won't instantly identify who we are." you growl.

Before anyone can reply, bullets and grenades fill the room.

Fred Baker (Foolish): ( You are already in your base, and no enemies are in sight, and you get angry. Suddenly, you hurl grenades into the sky and watch as they rain down amidst your hail of bullets.

SAVING THROWS

Grayson (Rulyon): 1: A grenade lands near you and explodes, slashing your side and burning your back as two bullets rip through your leg.

EFFECTS:

Burnt Back: -4 to all actions, heals in 6 turns
Cut Side: -2 to all actions, will cause death in 2 turns if not healed

Bonnington (Frogger): 20: You spin round and bat a grenade away with your hand, and it explodes once it is amongst others, causing them to harmlessly detonate. Then, you grab a shard of shrapnel and hurl it into Fred's hand. (Dodge - 1)

Jessica (8680): 20: None of the bullets hit you as you dive backwards, bullets pinging off of the nearby Apache helicopter. You raise your rifel and shoot the final grenade while it is in midair.

Aeryn (Duh): 15: You skillfully dodge all the bullets.

Fred: You see your teamates aiming at you.

Roll #3

Arthur Bonnington (Frog): 3: You go to look around for a stealth craft, but trip and fall over. Luckily, you don't get hurt, although you are lucky the Paras haven't arrived yet, as they would have decimated you.

Grayson (Rulyon): 20-6=14: Your gun clatters noisily off of the watchtower and you pull out your medkit and cover your side with a bandage, stopping it bleeding for now, although your back still hurts like hell and you feel a bit dizzy.

EFFECTS:

Burnt Back: -4 to all actions, heals in 5 turns
Cut Side: -2 to all actions, will cause death in 1 turn if not healed - STOPPED TEMPOARILY
Dizzy: -1 to all actions, will heal next turn.

Aeryn Pierre: 14 - Swearing at Fred in Frech, you pull out your Browning Pistols and take cover behind a crate full of Riot Shields. Then have an idea, you could use the Riot Shields in the crate if it isn't locked.

Fred Baker (Fool): 17 - There are no enemies, and tears aren't gonna get you brownie points in the SAS, so you don't do anything.

Jessica Willaims (8680): 13 - You tell Fred about an demolitions soldier working in a US taskforce during WW2, who seieged and island and juggled grenades while glaring and keeping your rifle ready.

You hear the jets draw closet, the Paras will probably be jumping in within a minute.

Roll #4


Aeryn Pierre: 10 - Sheathing your Brownings, you slip your fingers under the lid and pull the lid off, and shout:

"Shields over here!"

But the only reply is a hail of bullets, coming from the door. A few footsteps are heard, and then a series of explosions. The paras are hear.

Grayson (Rulyon): 5-11-4=0 - Getting out your medpack, you prepare to heal yourself. Suddenly, a grenade is heard below you, and the tower begins toppling.

Burnt Back: -4 to all actions, heals in 5 turns
Cut Side: -2 to all actions, will cause death in 1 turn if not healed - STOPPED TEMPOARILY

Bonningtion (Frog): 11+3=14 - Bounding for the tower, you suddenly hear paras pouring in, several felled by claymores and watch one M203 the tower's base. Healing is out of the question, so you draw your MP5K and open fire on the paras, wounding 2 and killing 1.

Williams (8680): 3 - Seeing the tower fall, healing isn't an option, so you dive for cover but slide past and get shot in the leg several times.

EFFECTS

Shot in Leg: -8 to movement

Bleeding: Will kill in 9 turns if not healed

Roll #5


Aeryn Pierre: 14 - You hurl a flashbang, blinding the paras aiming their SA80s at you, then pull out your pistols and charge, landing a few rounds in the Paras, bringing down 3. You also wound 6 and then look for cover, and, seeing the tower is now fallen fully, you take cover behind it.

Fred Baker: 1 - You raise your Remnington and fire more, but it jams. Cursing, you reach for your sidearm. Then realize you don't have one, and you are shot to the ground, and knocked unconscious by the bullets as a red mist floats up behind you.

Johnson Deeds: 3+3=6: As your rifle's clip runs out, you release it and raise your Browning High Power as the rifle swings to you side on it's straps and fire... Or you try to. It jams for the first few shots, and then you have to eject the clip and reload.
