Gordon: roll around. haven't you forgot your basic fire safety skills?

Captain: Retreat-ish so he can't stab you.

Taylor: Needle in the leader's leg. Then needle in the goddamn robot's arm

Everyone else: fire at the robot

The leader pulls out some sort of energy sword as he charges you. You draw your sword and...




...he spasms and falls over dead. Westbrook notices the cybernetic peek its head around the corner and he takes it off.



: Well, looks like he was smart enough to take the needle out. Too bad all the poison gets injected within half a second of impact.
: ...Huh. That's too bad, I was expecting a duel.
[COMM]: Captain, I'm not detecting any boarders anymore. I think they were the last.
Oh, and uh, the ferronis say we should get out. I think we should probably listen to them.
: Got it. Turn off red alert, I'll be returning to the bridge shortly.
: uurgh...
: Is Gordon alright?
: He's not on fire anymore. I've seen dozens of burns worse than these.
: Get him to a medbay and be sure to make fun of him for being bald. I'll be going now.

that's odd, we've only fought two groups of three boarders and they're already saying we won

the iconian captain is nowhere to be found, surely he was at least smart enough to send more than six units

there's more people than just you defending the ship. there were a lot more boarders.

ah, enemy captain must've had his ass handed to him by our big guns then

alright then let's head for the bridge and drop chromedome there in the medbay

Beam up that Sedric guy we completely forgot about.

I wouldn't turn off Red Alert just yet. Maybe put the ship on only Medium Alert. Just be on the lookout for that Captain Guy. If he was smart enough to get off his ship during a boarding attack he probably shouldn't be underestimated. Wait. Hes probably not on the ship anymore... Has Sedric been beamed up yet?

 stuff. The captain is going straight for Sedric

Oh sure go for the guy with military-grade guns ohoho.

Nothing would work out for him in the end. He'll just be trapped aboard with Sedric.

Scan for possible intruders.

Scan for possible intruders.
But there are none!

Go get the Sedric guy who's caused so much trouble

>sedric is outnumbered
>sedric has no visible armor
>we have armor that can probably stand at least one hit from a military-grade gun without being ded

alright then let's head for the bridge

You head to the bridge.



: Captain.
: Tyrell.
: So, what was that all about again?
: They were after Sedric, I think.
: Right, him. He's been stuck in his shuttle for a while now, no doubt scheming.
: Tractor his shuttle into our hangar and have a team extract him.
: I also suggest leaving ferronis space before they get angry.
: Right, remember to d-

: Well now, you've taken my bounty, you've taken my ship, but you scum won't take my life before I take yours.
: Ah, there you are. I see you didn't have enough honor to even fight alongside your own men.
: Honor? Where's the honor in running away to get help like you did?
: I was simply evening the playing field. Now, are you going to try to talk me to death?

He says nothing in response and aims his gun at you.

wait, he's got very little armor around his head, and there's something unusually large around his waist which i believe may be a bomb

shoot him in the head, then i guess we should throw his body out the airlock or something. also take his weapon(s) if we kill him

probably his armor

you have plot armor though, which is better. Tyrell and that bridge grunt may not, however.

Shoot him in face while retreating to the chair behind you. Call in backup to the room behind the wall so you can "flank" him

Looks like a gun. Infact
