Have I to roll the dice too?

Nah, no need to. I guess Lisa is in no line of sight of the object being spotted.

She´ll be briefed by the thing by the newcomers, I gather.

OK.

I guess you need some input on what to reply to Ziordi ;-) I hope this will help.

********************

What Bishop wants is a story of what´s been happening on the base lately.

Linda has no idea of what´s happened at the oil rig. (Noone except UNSF and TriPlan enterprises knows this.)

You have not checked the sat for imagery yet today. There might be something on. You have had electrical mishaps the last couple of weeks, but that´s just what to expect when building in sub zero environment.

The Hercules C-130 is a surplus cargo ship left by the Russians.

Lisa knows nothing about any other team arriving.

She has an incoming message on the PC btw... (Where Shane is sitting)

As a fact you can say that your last company here was your ex team mate.

The last she had seen of a companion or co-worker had left three weeks ago. That was Josephine Berloch, a 27 year old scientist from Norway. She had been studying microorganisms in ice pools. She had been traveling to the snow free patches of Antarctica and back. A Russian team had provided flight in and out of her destinations.

All that was left of her was a stack of Science magazines in Norwegian.

Excuse me but I'm not completely sure about what's going on.

So, are we finally at the oil rig? Is the oil rig surrounded by the sea or where?

It's been some time since this game started and I don't really remember what our objetives was, I know it was something about investigating an oil rig, but what was the problem?

Who do we work for? A country or a company? Do we have any known enemy?
I'm asking because I don't know why should I open fire against those guys on the snow scooter.

What are my orders?

Hi!

The mission is run under United Nations Strike Force (UNSF), severed from the large UN, thus no country or countries run UNSF.  Any forces who operate under a national flag are considered hostile at this location (Station 10 and the oil rig).

The company who built the island UNSF operates from is Tri-Plan Enterprises. They also built the oil rig and are contracted to build an off-world colony. 

If the oil rig has been taken over by a hostile force, they should be eliminated.

If need be, the oil rig may be blown up. There are explosives at Station 10, somewhere...

If it´s just an electrical failure, the problem should be fixed and a radio connection should be established.

Your team is not the first sent in...

You could be considered working for Tri-Plan Enterprises as the mission seems to be a job to cover up an accident on one of Tri-Plan´s structures...

As Tri-Plan is bound to UNSF one could say that UNSF is the corporate army of the high tech company. But, hey! They pay good money!

You are still at Station 10, 5km west of the oil rig. The oil rig is located on solid ice. It´s a single pillar rig, cutting down through the ice and to a pocket of oil several thousand  meters down. From the plans you have of the rig, it seems that the major part of the quarters of the rig are located just between the ice and the ground.

So, no water near the oil rig.

You are not there yet. You will leave by snow mobile and it will take you thirty minutes to get there.

Your last orders are to blow the thing up if there´s a major problem. Sgt Chard told you that on the heli before you touched down. From the evidence so far:

The guy on the scooter (out of sight) didn´t reveal himself. He is now escaping.

The sat shows that he has military equipment.

USA is known to interfere where they really have no business - except profit. (Could be said about UK, Russia or most colonial countries too.)

He´s heading at the direction of the oil rig.

McArthur already fired shots, so Gusmão is only enforcing his action.

**********

Other actions he can take are:

Look for the explosives. No one else have...

Hold his fire and return inside.

Get the snow mobile (the one you guys brought) in gear and get ready to head after the guy on the scooter.

Run over to the position the guy on the scooter was at and look for clues. He might have dropped something. Or trace the tracks back where he came from.

Or something else you can come up with.

Is there any way to activate notification per mail?

Yup, press the preferences icon at the left (the guy with hard hat from Village People). Look at the "Send me a mail notification" info. And check all the boxes you need.

Then wait to be notified.

Cheers!

Thanks :)

sorry by my delay for answer, this days i was some busy at the university, UU 

Great work people! I hear you´ve secured Station 10 from a threat. Kudos, guys!

Im a bit confused, probably because i got into game late, but we are supposed to get to that platform east of the station, right?
You mind give me a small small small summary?

Sure, no problemo.

Recap:

The team (for reference Team TWO!) working out of UNSF is on a mission to investigate the status of a secret experimental base. (At the base of the oil rig)

The company which designed and built the rig as well as the base is the same that built UNSF floating HQ -Valhalla. That company is Tri-Plan Enterprises.

When the team set off on the mission, a contact got killed at the UNSF bar. The team proceeded and got their orders from Sgt Chard. After a helicopter ride to Station 10, where a guide will meet the team, they are to set out on the last bit. Equipment and explosives will be made available at Station 10.

One problem is that the base has encountered a disease and the crew has fallen ill. There is a doctor´s log stored at the sickbay of the base. (Bishop may know how to read that)

Unfortunately their communications has died. There are also problem with electrical failure in the general area of the oil rig.

The team has oxygen tanks to avoid inhaling toxic fumes if there´s any biohazardous fumes on the base.

Last call from the rig was 21 hours ago. While the first team arrived to the rig, the GPS signal stopped working. That was three hours ago.

There´s an emergency heli stationed at the top of the oil rig. You can use that to evac the area.

The first team could be the team that was reported to arrive by scooter from the contact on the McMurdo base.

Hawkins, who got killed while escaping from Station 10 most probably belonged to that first team.

That´s about it

Thanks for the summary. Seems i mest up my posting... What did i do wrong for it to get like that? all those // \ symbols?
I edited and did save post "Guardar Mensaje"... must have done something wrong there...

I get the same type of format issue when swapping between editor modes: Cambiar / BBCode. Now I stick to Cambiar editing. Might be an issue of cut and paste. I remember wanting to use BBC code and copied the text from Cambiar editor window in to BBC code editor.

Anyway, I deleted the format errors in your post.

Cheers!

Hello dave, ¡How Long!

I dont have a really reason for being out so much time. Well, yeah i have it. I meant, if i had enough leisure time, i probably would stay connected to umbria. But in this new year of college im really bussy, and after the hole thing of the works here i just becomes a llittle alienated of the web.

I think i will got a long period of detoxification, and maybe (probably) come back months later. So, it seems that my little Dannii need to be NPCed. Maybe we meet again around here, maybe this play stand still and i can take any orphan character.

Anyway, nice to meet you... and good luck with this ;-)

Great to have had you on the team, Danny!
I´ll see this game to the finish even if I do it at a slow pace. I hate to abort games. No foul in stopping as a player, but as a Keeper it´s a big no-no.

See you back when you have time! I´d like you to drop a line in the Carisma of how you thought the game has been. I know I´m a rookie and can use a boost in confidence.
Cheers!

We are continuing arent we?

Yes, I did post that McArthur and Molotov reached the rig. The two other teams are on the way. I´m waiting for luck checks. (One for each snowmobile)
Jason is going with Peter and Mario. The girls share the last snowmobile from Station 10.

There has been no activity on top of the rig.
