TJOTMS: EP.11, “...But It’s 11, so it’s Louder”
Location
Ruins of an
Imperial Outpost
Bayest’a
Background
Eight Ball
Command has been given the mission to get to a planet so remote, and so hidden, that it is questionable that a ship could even reach it. It
is known as “New Texas”.
However, the
very reason that Eight Ball even knows about this planet, could also provide the
tool that could be used to get there. The infamous criminal gang, known as the
Archuleta Brothers have been using an almost unlimited ranging teleportation capability to execute heist
after heist. The Brothers’ M.O. is to
teleport in, grab the object, and simply teleport back to their hideout on New
Texas.
SITREP
Eight Ball have
fed the Archuletas false information that a valuable map is hidden in the ruins
of Bayest’a (last Episode Link: HERE). If the Archuleta Brothers take the bait
and teleport to Bayest’a, it might be possible for Eight Ball to get close
enough to the creature called “Leaper”, and be inside the effect bubble when
the gang attempts to teleport away and escape.
…success
means that Eight Ball will suddenly be millions of miles away from home on New
Texas. (Surrounded by the very criminals they’ve ambushed.)
The Action
Eight Ball
has deployed on the target.
The Archuleta Brothers do not make them wait very long...
with a BAMF!, they arrive and immediately disperse to find the map they think is among the ruins.

Lt. Philo
“Major, I
spy with my little eye… 7 bad guys."
"They are
about as spread out as they’re going to get, Major. Now would be the time.”
Maj. Guiscard
“On my mark.
Everyone go and don’t stop for anything. We have to be among them when they
teleport out. …and MARK!!!!”
Maj Guiscard
“Ok, they're tightening up. Keep moving, get there first…”
"Closer!"
"CLOSER!!!"
Sgt. Mannessmann
“What the hell is that tingling feeling?”
Lt. Philo
“Holy Shiiiiiiiii….”
These two posts have definitely got me wanting to know more.
ReplyDeleteThanks Sean,
DeleteIt was fun to put together. Coordinating the story, mailing the minis and coordinating the release.
This was fun. ;)
ReplyDeleteHELLS YEAH IT WAS :)
DeleteHehe... I follow both your blogs so I had already lined both the posts up for order of reading... *makes a cup of coffee. Sits back. Reads post. "Well that escalated quickly!"
ReplyDeleteOn a more serious note, I continue to be amazed by how caught up one can get in the story. I suppose diligent checking and rechecking of the blogs every day eventually pays off!
Thanks again for the awesome update on our heroes in Sector 6 and Beyond!
Thanks Joshua.
DeleteI can't speak for Grove, but I just recently started a database to track all characters, locations, military units, and other things of note.
That way I can check and make sure I didn't accidentally duplicate something.
Still, it's a lot of fun.
