Author Topic: Our Dusty Old Guns - Back to Basics [War's a brewin']  (Read 8466 times)

We had continued to drift onwards towards a distant land mass, leaving the wreckage behind us. I was really hoping this wasn't North territory, and wasn't going to be violent.

I see a building go into flames. I see a man who wears a suit jumping out of the car. That was when the 2nd floor collapsed.

An hour later, probably that same man wanted a mercenary.

I call in with my northern clothes on. I am armed with my plasma sniper and my longbow.

Also I thought it was a laser rifle.

Claude picks up the phone.
"Hello?"
Also swat accept my steam request.

All the sweaty men stop yelling in victory, and just eyeball the land. "IT'S NORTHERN TERRITORY!" one of them shouts. Almost instantly after he calls out the Northern territory, everyone starts screaming and rushes the land. This isn't good.

Claude: "Hello?"
Matt: "Hi. I saw your ad."
Claude: "The one about killing yes?"
Matt: "Yes."
Claude: "So, what is your price?"
Matt: "Name yours."
Matt: "I really don't care, I just want to help people."
Claude: "100 coin."
Matt: "I like it."
Claude: "Good. Kill all of the giovanni gang."

The night. Cold and rigid.
I hear an owl hoot.

"Go get them, Matt." The man who was assigned to drive me to the giovanni HQ was pretty nice. He gave me a magnum and I said I have better weaponry, he insisted, and I took it. After he left, I threw it into the dumpster, making a loud clink! The nearest sentry came around the corner, and I knifed him in the throat. Blood sprayed all over the place, and I shoved a cloth in the cut to make it stop gurgling. I throw him into the dumpster.

I turn the corner, I take out my longbow and send an arrow into his head, and falls onto the ground. I pull him into a garbage can. Taking out the trash. I think. I use another arrow to put a man unconscious, as he had a helmet on. I slit his throat, as I remember Claude telling me to kill them all. I round a corner and nearly get spotted by a spotlight. I scale the wall, looking for foot and hand grips. I find a good spot and start climbing, I count: 1 man manning the spotlight, 3 spotting, and 4 who look armed and are in an intense game of Texas Hold 'Em. I send an arrow to one of the piles of coins. They all turn and before they point at me, I kill them all with the assault rifle, I snipe the man on the spot light, he disintegrates in a shower of blood, and I send 3 arrows to the rest of the people on the roof. I check their rifles and notice that they are old, '20 weapons. I try to clean up the mess as best as possible, but I was not really paid to be a clean up crew. I go inside.

I see that this was clearly a newspaper factory.

Now, for the South, what would you say is a weapon that'd you go "Okay, I'll allow that, but you're pushing it", just as a reference point.

It's not exactly that clear what the South is supposed to be armed with, it just seems to be 'Cowboy tech, but really just simply outdated weapons, even by today's standards'

1911 year tech with a more steampunky twist.

Well then I guess my 1917 weapon is out of the question then  :cookieMonster:


I count about 10 men, all armed with either hunting shotguns or Thompsons. I decide to pick each off, one by one, silently. I discharge the lazer rifle, it makes a low hum. I silently take out my long bow, and pick off the farthest man from the group. I hide on a catwalk, behind an old wood-block printer. I take a bricks and wait for a man to walk to the door that enters to the roof. I hit him in the head with it, and I tag him with a note, "This is revenge." I loot his body and then kill the man. I put on his suit, as he looks vaguely similiar to me. I know I can't talk at all, but let's hope that the scar near his neck shows a knife stab that made him mute. I walk up to the next guy, and act normal with my thompson. He looks at me and nods, and offers me his shift. After he turns, I gag him and knock him out with a powder on the cloth. I think about what I had been doing, This is fun.

I deal with the other two men who are on the top floor. I retrieve my arrows and put them back in my quiver.

Is swat pulling typical bullstuff?
Kinda. Swat, a laser rifle wouldn't make a low hum, second, the guards would probably notice someone dropping dead if they're on shift and MOVING AROUND. And unless you are Italian you don't look like the guy.
