SPACE MARAUDERS - Deployment time

[TheScout]

Space team- Translator, maybe?

<-- PREVIOUS UPDATE

Attempt to hold him captive via quick disarm, It's impossible to translate his language, I think, but as long as you got a shield for a little then that's good. I think a safer bet is just to kill him, however...

You blow his gun to pieces, disarming him. It looks like he's contemplating whether or not to run.

Go in Deeper

==>

The team heads deeper into the mine. In the distance, you see a light source, so you turn off the hat light and head towards it, the team behind you.



The source of the light seems to be from this room, which is lit unlike the rest of the mine. There is the iconian commander, who seems to be confronting a large robed figure. His bodyguard is mangled and dead on the ground with strange shifting red lines all over them. Finally, there is a pedestal behind the commander holding a light grey cube-shaped thing.

HAVE SNIPER HEADSHOT HIM THEN SWORD LUNGE JUMP ATTACK CHARGE

[PowerDag]

[Aces]

Ulris: Chase down iconian should he decide to run.

Commander: Listen in on conversation.

[Qwepir]

tackle space iconian
listen in on ground

[Harm94]

You could listen in, but the robed guy might die. Although who is to say that the robed guy isn't on our side?

i've read tons of lovecraftian literature, always assume that the robed guy ISN'T on your side.

[TeslaCoil]

Tackle and bind the space iconian. Apply gag and rape and use a sleeper capsule on him.

[heedicalking]

don't fight the robed guy you will lose

[Conan]

ground team: wait and listen in on conversation, but act before they kill/attempt to kill each other

space team: detain the guy goddamnit. have the other people secure the adjacent area; it might be a trap.

space team: TACKLE AND DETAIN ICONIAN

tackle space iconian

You detain the iconian worker, but it's pretty clear that he doesn't speak any language you know. Meanwhile, there's like, crates full of loot around you. Why did you board them again anyways?

Commander: Listen in on conversation.

ground team: wait and listen in on conversation

The two appear to be talking. The man is speaking a language you recognize, but the iconian commander isn't.

: So, why have you come here, to this remote mine on this remote planet, far from the iconian border? : *unintelligible garbling* : Of course, I guessed that much. You actually think that artifact behind you can help the iconian hegemony's pathetic antics at the galactic core. : *unintelligible garbling, aggressive sounding* : Well then, we'll do this your way.

He drops his cloak, revealing a detailed suit of armor beneath, and replaces his gun with an odd looking short sword.
It seems they are about to be occupied with fighting, and that artifact there is currently unattended...

[Aces]

Grab that stuff.

Run back up the ledge.

[TeslaCoil]

I almost forgot we're space marauders

Space team: Take Iconian prisoner and loot the crates

Ground team: Grab the artifact while they fight and make a break back to the LZ

[Conan]

space team: throw crates out hole for ship to tractor beam them back. then advance through the ship and kill stuff

ground team: keep waiting, then when they begin to fight grab the thing. no use trying to get it while they dramatically talk stuff

also, take recordings of any subsequent conversation (and the one they just had, if possible) they have; it will be useful to have it translated later.
