Wist 376 Posted June 17, 2015 This is the STORY post. The second post will contain all event rules/information 2018. A year of innovation, artistic spirit, emancipation. The last vestiges of financial crisis fell away, and with that came optimism. The world seemed a little brighter, a little more sustainable. It looked like we were going to be okay. Then came the outbreak. We're not entirely sure how it began, but our best guess begins in North Korea. July 14th, 2018. The failing nuclear missile tests, as well as the Myongar reactor disaster in 2016 drove the North Korean government to develop a biological weapons development unit, who we know as FARSEC. They pioneered three strains of H1Y1 and re-engineered them for orbital-drop weaponry. FARSEC consisted of rogue elements. It was built predominantly of foreigners, and with its increased budget, coupled with a disdain for the government grew even more secretive. But the army must have been suspicious... they purged FARSEC from the inside out. Whoever replaced them though... sheesh. Things went wrong fast. FARSEC's orbital weapons fired a week later. It hit most of Asia... The US's anti-missile system, NEXUS, shot 99% of what came its way down. Whatever FARSEC built... it was horrendous. People lost their hair almost instantly, their skin ruptured, and they were thrown into psychosis. The psychosis grew worse, and so did the situation. Cannibalism was observed in 19% of patients, aggressive behaviour in 86%, total lack of reason or cognitive function in 99.7%. China was lost almost instantly, but a team of researchers on the Zhangou coast began developing a strain of vaccine. The United Nations Security Council, or the UNSC, identified these doctors and researchers as the most viable and credible sources to understanding what H1Y1 was, or is. We found Voodoo, the Chinese station, six months ago. The outbreak occurred 827 days ago. In that time, we've lost Europe, Asia, the Middle East, the entire eastern seaboard of the United States, and most of Australia. UNSC forces are now concentrated in New Zealand and Java, the two population capitals of the world. We think they found something in Voodoo. Reports are scattered, but the last footfall out of mainland China said that Sector E of the facility was breached after the critical phase was complete. There's something in there... something that might end H1Y1 as we know it. This is why you've been assembled. You're going in. Voodoo is overrun, the experiments with H1Y1 there produced a swathe of zombies. Cut through, find whatever is in there. Four brothers are going in. They work as a unit, and they're perfect for the mission. Chase, our mechanic. His job is to put the power in the facility back on. There's a pump room in the lower levels. It'll allow us to extract information as quickly as possible. Cotton is our thug. He'll support the team with guns blazing. Flint is a renowned scientist and soldier. His job is to create the antidote using whatever the Chinese left behind. Salvador led an exodus of people out of South America. He'll lead the team, and make sure the mission is a success. Gentleman, once you're in, you've got to run. The outbreak might have well as started in there. Good luck. Quote Share this post Link to post
Wist 376 Posted June 17, 2015 Please make sure to have an admin/mod, preferably a host too, added to your friends list so you can easily be invited. The hosts are Weezy, McLovin and Wist. CT Objective: As per the briefing Chase, Cotton, Salvador and Flint need to get from their drop-off point on the beach in Voodoo and fulfil as many objectives as possible. There are two primary objectives, both of which should be each team's priority, and one lesser objective, which confident teams can attempt. The Voodoo facility lost power during it's research into FARSEC' viruses, and so requires the generators to restart to begin transmitting the FARSEC research. This can be achieved by the pump room. Being within the region of the pump room is considered to be reaching it, and points are awarded immediately. Once a CT is within the pump room, he is safe. Bonus points are awarded for Chase reaching this room, being the team's mechanic and his area of expertise. Chinese doctors began to store sensitive information within the theatre as they were forced to relocate during the initial outbreak. Breaching this sector and reaching the theatre is the team's second goal. As above, as soon as they are in the theatre they are considered safe. Bonus points are awarded if Flint reaches this point, being the team's primary scientist. A third minor goal, as requested by UNSC Marine Recon is the recovery of a prototype weapon, believed to be somewhere on the roof of the facility. It is recommended this weapon can only be handled by Cotton, the weapons specialist. Teams are reminded this is a secondary objective and will yield a smaller reward. There are multiple ways of scoring during this event, as well as multiple strategies teams can employ. Your aim is to reach the safe zone, in any way possible. You will score more points if you reach the two safe zones with 2 members in each safe zone, and the most if you complete every objective, and send the correct characters to the correct safe zones. It is a valid option to send four characters to a single safe zone and accept a round end. This is one possible strategy. Safe zone scoring chart: Theatre 0: Pump Room 0 = 0 points Theatre 1: Pump Room 0 = 5 points Theatre 2: Pump Room 0 = 10 points Theatre 1: Pump Room 1 = 15 points Theatre 3: Pump Room 0 = 15 points Theatre 2: Pump Room 1 = 20 points Theatre 4: Pump Room 0 = 20 points Theatre 3: Pump Room 1 = 25 points Theatre 2: Pump Room 2 = 30 points "Any score the other way around will give the same amount of points." You will score highest for splitting your forces up. A bonus FIVE points will be awarded for successfully sending Chase to the pump room, Flint to the theatre, or Cotton to his weapons prototype, for a maximum of FIFTEEN extra points. CT Rules: Massive UNSC shortages mean the team will only be equipped with pistols within the facility. CTs MAY NOT use the vine ladder to reach the roof. They'll have to find another way to access it. Equally, the lift and the vent accessing the roof adjacent to it are BANNED. Once a CT enters a Safe Zone, they are not allowed out this safe zone anymore. Meaning you have to choose wisely who will enter which safe zone before you get there. CTs may NOT use vents of any kind. T Objective: H1Y1 has overtaken you. Kill the fresh meat, using your bare hands. T Rules: Ts will respawn every ten seconds at random spawn points through the facility. Ts may not enter the two safe zones, but they may attack the beach. SIGN UP LIST 1. Jamie 2.
