Wilson, Ophelia and Mark are about to enter the Main Containment Chamber.
Good thing we took those HAZMAT suit. If not for them, that guard would surely have stopped us.
Only a little further to go now.
[Dr. Wilson]

Man, you keep to a strict tuesday and wednesday scedule, but the one time you start straight giving us major story revelations you do so on wednesday? My man, your work is love and life, but this is just mean.
[Chief Medical Officer]
Alright, he’s coming back. Vitals are stabilizing.
I sure hope you know what you’re doing, Director. He’s going to have one hell of a crash after this.

Major? Can you hear me?
I’m sorry to wake you up from you little nap, but we’ve got some matters to attend to.
The 8th angel has arrived. We need you on the bridge now. I’ll brief you on the way, come with me.

The 8th angel has been spotted 3 hours ago emerging from Lake Huron’s Georgian Bay, 25 miles away from the north shore. It’s been steadily advancing toward Montréal-3 since.
We’ve sent Chariot along with Heart, The RCAF Fighter-Interceptor squadrons they’ve ‘’loaned’’ us. Until they’ve made a scan sweep, we won’t know much about the the 8th. MAGI preliminary visual analysis is as follows :
-The 8th Angel is covered by what appears to be an hardened outer shell, similar to the 4th’s angel exoskeleton.
-The 8th Angel is capable of hovering at approximatly 120 meters above the ground.
-The Core appears to be internal.
>>47541740
>>47541776
None of the Eileens are combat ready. The one who lost consciousness along with you is still in some sort of coma, while the other one can't synchronize with Eva 03. We're doing everything we can concerning her, though.
The First and Second Child are currently being prepared for their sortie.
Alright, we’re at the bridge. [He shake your hand and smiles] Our lives are in you hands, Major.
What metaknowledge do have to cheese this angel with, currently? From the blue stuff dripping from the angel from what I can see, it's the acid tears angel.
[Head, Finance Division]
Major?! What's going on?
[Head, R&D]
Major? I was so worried! Are you sure you'll be okay? I mean, yo-
[HSci]
Come on, now. There's no time for this. You can make all your emotional reunions and juvenile ''movie night'' after Montréal-3 is out of danger.

[Wgc]
Good day, Major.
We're almost in close range and Chariot is close behind us. How should we approach this, Major?
>>47542191
FIRE THE...
hey other voices, what do those aircraft have again?
>>47541981
"Head Sci there is no need to be a jack ass."
>>47542191
Have you been able to get a target lock for you missiles? Keep your distance until we can acertain the angels abilities.
>>47542213
AtA missles.
>>47542191
If you want us to, my flight wing could initiate a strike against the Angel, as a diversion for Chariot's scan sweep. This would mean that Chariot will be without escort for a while, however.
>>47542224
Stay back until we can get a read on it WGC. I don't want any nasty surprises.
>>47542224
Yeah go ahead an poke it a little with your missiles while Chariot makes the scan. Let's see what we're dealing with here.
(It's not like the Angels ever came with fighter back up right?... right?)
Also what's the status on our other conventional forces? I'd like to at least get the YAGRs in the air while we're doing this.
>>47542224
Keep covering chariots' asses, if the angel doesn't bite the bait they'll be pretty screwed.
>>47542224
You're go for the diversion, we need a good scan pronto.
>>47542295
>(It's not like the Angels ever came with fighter back up right?... right?)
>>47542224
Boom and zoom Wizard. Dive on the target and use your speed to evade it once you've hit it.
You should be able to assist Chariot as soon as the Angel show some hostility this way.
You could also use the sun to disorient it.
>>47542259

[Computer Technician]
The Angel has launched something!
[Wgc]
Angel activity observed! We're pu-
>>47542639
The angel has missiles. Why does the angel have missiles?
I'd like to suggest an immediate retreat for Chariot. We'll need its Eva cradle for my plan to perform an aerial insertion on top of the angel for close quarters combat with the vibro glaive.
I'd also like to suggest we start readying the positron cannon too. We'll need our best ranged options available for this.
>>47542546
OH SHIT! That line goes right through all the important stuff.
Okay we need to hold the line at residential 10.
I want our tanks deployed to residential 10 along with EVA units 03 and 08.
Meanwhile have unit 02 set up in Industrial district 3 with the experimental positron gun behind a blast shield.
I also want our bomber wings on standby and our VTOL squadrons in the air now!
Finally someone tell the people in district 10 to get to the shelter if it hasn't been done already.
>>47542639
Well thats one way of dealing with the ex I suppose.
>>47542639
[Cbw]
Scan sweep aborted! We've lost two aircraft!
Nice job, Major.
[Wgc]
We're down one aircraft, Major. The Angel launched some kind of orb that hovered around it. It then shot these blinding tendrils of light!
>>47542827
>>47542546
How come most of the HQ facilities are crossed off?
Also, I'm slightly suprised there isn't more than just a shelter at Res-10, considering that it's fuckhuge.
>>47542827
That orb looks suspiciously red, I bet's it the core.
>>47542827
Okay, plan B - can we use N2 bomb as a landmine? Or rather a cluster of them. The fucker seems to be going in a straight line, we just place them in predicted path and detonate when it's right above.
>>47542768
I really think we should put Florence and 08 onto Chariot and prepare for a high risk aerial drop onto the Angel. If we equip her with the vibro glaive and make use of her AT powers for max defense, she should survive the drop and be able to wreck the angel up close while Anna and the conventionals are providing support from below.
This is assuming we can get Chariot out of there in one piece.
>>47542827
Lets abort for now, we'll need the rest of our airforce in tact to support the Eva attack.
>>47542827
>Nice job, Major.
Well maybe if you relied on your own skills as a pilot instead of my ability to roll a 10 sided polyhedron you would have done better!
Ugh, Heart, what kind of on board sensors you got? Any chance of doing some fancy flying to get us some intel?
>>47542827
No point trying to sass me, focus on regrouping. Does anyone have a way of identifying what's up with the orb?
The angel is going to plow straight through Ottowa, isn't it?

[Hsci]
Oh, yes. We've worked quite a lot on Nerv-Mtl's MAGI supercomputer these past few weeks. We were in the process of remove some... superfluous bits, if you will. You'll find out that it is now significantly more efficient. You can thank me when this will be over.
>>47542695
>>47542905
[Cbw]
Roger that. We're pulling out.
>>47542865
[Head, Finance Division]
The whole district was blown up to hell and back, Major. Most of the facilities we invested in will be unusable for a while.
>>47542428
>Eva 01 and Third Child greyed out
lol
>>47542957
>>47542896
That orb may be the core, if so the angel is only vulnerable when it is attacking.
We can bait the angel into attacking some VTOLs and then bombarding it with everything we have. Positron rifle, the long-range tanks and the howitzer from the bomber unit.

Anyhow, it will give us enough time to properly determine our deployment plan.
>>47543034
As I already said, Major, you're not qualified to comment on my division's work. Play with your lead soldiers, I'm sure this is more than enough to -
[Vice-Commander]

Right I'm just gonna stand here and smoke a blunt. If you need any more tactical decisions talk to Geist, CAGsuragi or any of the other voices. They're the serious ones.
>>47543159
Interesting that you say I'm playing with my lead soldiers, considering the stakes of my little game. However, this isn't the time. I'll focus on taking pieces out of the angels while you focus on taking pieces out of our staff.
Air divisions, regroup and return to the angel while exercising caution. You should prioritize evasive manouvers until the angel scans are complete.
>>47543243
Hush, only Rachel should know about that.
>>47542957
MAGI, devote some analysis towards the size of the object which generated the tendrils. Would it be possible for an EVA to snipe it down?
I like the other voices plan to airdrop Florence with the vibro-glaive while the other two EVAs and conventional forces distract it.
Is there anyway we could hide an N2 mine under it's projected path just before it reaches the residential area?
Also also we should consider fighting it OUTSIDE the city limits.
>>47543159
Here's my proposed battle plan:
>Our ground forces, supported by Anna, will attack the Angel from entrenched positions as a distraction
>Our fighter wings will then escort the bombers Hermit and Temperance as they launch an N2 strike against the target to weaken it
>Chariot will perform a high altitude aerial drop of Florence in Eva 08 directly on top of the Angel. This must be perfectly coordinated with all other support strikes to ensure a successful landing. Eva 08's AT field will be crucial for ensuring a safe landing.
>Eva 08 will then smite and cleave through the thing using the Vibro Glaive. If Florence is able to muster any additional AT strength, she will make use of that too in order to help bring the thing down.
>Eva 08 will either kill the Angel outright, or find a way to ground it
>If we can ground it, we surround and bombard it until it dies to death
Thoughts?
>>47543331
>the other two EVAs
03 isn't an option right now, the Eileens can't synch with it.
>hide an N2 mine under it's projected path just before it reaches the residential area
I like this idea. We'll fire off that trap in coordination with the other supporting strikes.
One more thing to consider, it hovers at some 100 meters above the ground. It can launch dangerous anti-air "umbrella" above itself. But can it defend itself against attack from underneath? Does AT field go all the way to the ground or can there a possibility to sucker-punch it in the gut, so to speak.
Shit like this is why we should have saved papa Franku
Ceg, out of interest, how many character deaths have we saved and allowed? While Frank and David are obvious, could we have saved the second HSci? Conversely, if we somehow missed the red dot during interim 1, would we lack a daughterfu?
>>47543165
He sure have a lovely smile.
>>47543406
> But can it defend itself against attack from underneath?
It can belly flop.
>>47543476
An ARG is underway, but we've been missing most of the hints. The first one we caught was the one from last thread on the Tim Hortons receipt.
I expect that our negligence has killed Ophelia.
>>47543388
Here's my proposed battle plan: I want to hit it with artillery at least once before it reaches Montreal. I want to see if this thing has any BVR.
>>47543514
>It can belly flop.
Acceptable, I was worried it canbarrel roll.
>>47543514

We forgot to investigate that residential apartment from Ophelia's hint.

>>47543388
>Is this the plan you'll go with?

Well we never had the time, unless we just abandoned our party of ladies before we began having head issues.
>>47543388
>Thoughts?
>>47543763
>Is this the plan you'll go with?
I'd say we should probably keep the Tank companies positioned near the strike zone, but behind hills or other terrain, as reinforcements and backup.
Get the YAGRs nearby. Are there any tall buildings or isolated trees they could use as cover in the area?
We should spread our forces out in an arc in front of the Angel.
I agree that we should drop Waifu on top of the angel as part of the main plan, but one EVA rarely does the job by itself. Having all the forces on standby ready to pop up and unleash !!~C:Fun:D~!! on the angel if it does anything unexpected (and it will) will help a lot
>NBS thread
>Its an Angel fight at that
Classes always seem to fall on the worst fucking days for these things
>>47543763
>Is this the plan you'll go with?
*Gzzt* *Snort* Huh? Oh yeah, that seems legit. Just make sure we bring along the Positron weapons, we didn't follow that line of research just so we could kill that one angel we were canonically supposed to kill with a positron gun and forget they exist.
>>47543987
Anna will like hitting the core with a positron beam. But remember, using one of those scrambles our communications and deals +++BADASS+++ AoE damage to anything nearby the shooter.
I'm glad I decided to slap Synthmetal on these formers.
Worms have been attacking them so fucking often that they've become Elite now.
Major.
SWORD, CLUB, CUP and COIN are now position at the edge of Residential District 10. Awaiting further orders.
>>47543763
Fuck, it's been so long I even forgot his name.
Have there been any death flags aside from them that we missedor that were activated but haven't come into play yet? I feel pretty bad that we missed one ARG and, judging by how shitty everything is, are generally fucking up out of combat.
It's okay though, this is Eva, everything's supposed to be shit, right? The Major's supposed to feel shit, right? The Major's supposed to spend evenings so alcohol and tears, right?
Eva Unit 02 in position.
I got the positron rifle with me...
>>47544260
Spread yourselves out, get into a decent position, make sure your gear's working, and think of something to shout in celebration when the Angel dies.
What's the range of your gear, soldier?
>>47544295

>>47544841
Unless we have something seriously heavy (I doubt the positron rifle is enough) we'll need to find a way around that exoskeleton.
I would suggest we bait out that red orb thing again and target it's tether but we're out of aircraft it seems.

I plan on it, however we can't launch any lone unit until the Angel is distracted or they'll be picked apart.
I suggest we launch the conventional attack, once the orb is released we concentrate all fire on it using the rifle and VTOLS, leaving one to pick up survivors. I am not so sure that the Unit 08 is going to be able to rip n' tear its way sufficiently now that we know what we're up against.

Keep rolling like that and things will start to change.

Fantastic.
Part of me regrets her not missing so we could give HSci massive shit though.

Rolled 9 (1d10)
>>47545963
Fuck it, let's try and make it a 2 at least.
>>47545963
What is with the rolls in this quest? I've never seen so many bad rolls in one quest.
Rolled 4 (1d10)
>>47545963
I really fucked up that one.
Major! An unauthorized sortie is underway!
Ace Squadron is taking off!
>>47545963For fuck's sake.
Rolled 6 (1d10)
>>47545963
No
>>47546032
I'M SORRY
>>47545963
>>47546010
Its a shitty system. 10% chance of a critfail on every roll? Tons of rolls every combat? With big consequences like character death? Sure sounds great!
>>47546032
Ceg we may need to start allowing a save roll to be used. I've never seen so many 1's in one quest.
>>47546059
It does grab quite well the feeling of Evangelion though.
>>47546032
Are their call signs Deus, Ex, and Machina in that order? If so let them do what they want.
>>47546078
>>47546059
We managed to get through everything, before that.
It's not too harsh.It will never.
OOC: bad roll fest though.
>>47546078
We already have a system though. Further 10s add +1 and further 1s give a -1. We've saved ourselves from 1s plenty of times by stacking 10s, this is jsut one of those times that we fucked up. It happens.
>>47546086
>>47546119
Maybe but it kinda sucks when a great plan can be completely wrecked by the dice or a shitty one can inexplicable succeed.

[First Child]
I have a good trajectory, Major.
As you always say, CAN'T STOP!
>>47546332
This is going to end badly
>>47546332

I have a very bad feeling about all this.

[Second Child]
I saw Florence drop right on top of the Angel!
[Computer Technician]
Eva 08 has suffered catastrophic damage! Both legs are pulverized!
Major!
>>47546441
Well shit. FLORENCE IF YOU CAN HEAR US OVER THE AMOUNT OF PAIN YOU'RE FEELING, CRAWL AWAY AS FAST YOU CAN
>>47546441
Can we eject the entry plug?
>>47546441
... good thing we put that armor plating
>>47546475
Yes. Eject the plug, initiate an immediate desync.

>//HIGH. YIELD. EXPLOSIVE. CAPACITY.
And this is where the "harass the ennemy until we are at Fixed Defense range" is abandonned.
What will happen if we destroy the Exoskeleton?
Massive explosion or stabilisation of the A.T. energy?
>>47546543
It's an angelic take on a glide bomb. Funny.
Aaaargh! Major!
>>47546475
>>47546514
[Computer Technician]
Syncronization cut! Engaging ejection procedure!
>>47546543
EJECT THE PLUG NOW!!!! HOW FAR CAN THE PLUG EJECT?
Do we have any air assets/anything really in the area that can quickly retrieve the entry plug?

Rachel's busy checking the N2 mine site ATM, I think she'll care about the kid more.
>>47546709
Yeah.
She dead.
>>47546734
how fast can they recover the plug? Either way that's another EVA unit down the tube
Major! I'm getting the same readings as before!
The Angel is going to attack!
>>47546665
[Hsci]
The plug has successfully ejected. At least she didn't fail her escape.
>>47546695
Every VTOL squadrons except Ace is still landed at the airport in Industrial District 03! Ace is almost at the explosion site!
>>47546819
fuck it, Divert ACE to retrieve Florence and have another Unit check on the N2 site.
>>47546819
FFS other voices? Why were the VTOLs sitting on their asses this whole time?
Get the VTOLs in the air now!
>>47546865
They were pulled off after taking major casualties. Units that take enough damage lose combat effectiveness.
>>47546819
So, we've determined that we've got a floating crab bomb incoming.
MAGI can you determine where these pockets are? Would a sufficient explosive yield detonate them with current available weapons?
EVA 02 relocate to new firing position, this thing is heading straight towards you.
Launch all VTOLS, keep them AWAY from the Angel. Deploy one squad for Plug retrieval.
If this goes BOOM near the explosion site and the plug no one will survive out there.
>>47546819
Good opportunity to push the tanks to do some damage.
Get the VTOLs airborne. If they can come in after the Angel fires its missile they can get some damn decent damage in.
Anna ready for another shot yet?
Also, how many of our Funding Unit Static Defenses do we have in range? Might be worth sending a 155mm Greetings message.
>>47546865
Well, one guy yelled for VTOLs...
I say the others provide covering fire while Ace try to scrape EVA-08 off the Angeland inadvertently add to the memorial wall.
Rolled 4, 6, 2 = 12 (3d10)
Don't worry guys! The next 3 rolls can't hurt us any more, I disarmed them
>>47546543
>//NUMEROUS. POCKETS. OF. CONDENSED. AND. UNSTABLE. A.T. ENERGY.
So would A.T. flares destabilize its binding force enough to cause the energy to "blowout"?
>>47546819
If everything comes to worse, can we send Florence in the spare unit?

...Roger. I'll scout the area for Florence's Entry Plug.
>>47547010
It would make sense.
HIT THE ANGEL WITH THE A.T FLARES AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS. AFTER WE GET FLORENCE OUT.
>>47547010
AhNuuuuuu Cheeki Breeki iv damke
>>47547019
Everything already is coming to worse
>>47547028
Use terrain to get LoS on the core but keep the main body out of range. Crest of a hill will work.
We able to get the remaining VTOLs behind a building or a hill or just away? Shit's gonna go up like the US Debt
>>47547028
OH SHIT, IT'S GOING TO DETONATE THE SHELL!!!!
ANNA SNIPE THE RED THING FAST!! ALL OTHER GROUND FORCES LIGHT UP THE EXOSKELETON WITH FLARES AND WHATEVER CAUSED DAMAGE.
>>47547028
Ohshit, it's gonna blow.
>>47547028
>its a fucking sculpin
OOC: Did Ophelia always Stop. After. Every. Word. Before?
I am guessing that the Exoskeleton is acting kinda like reactive armor which is why it has been taking so little damage.
>>47547072
No, we may need to Cheeki Breeki back down to the Core soon. And remember to bring more ammo and a knife with us.
>>47547072
Reread the thread. HSci lombotomized the shit out of her.
>>47547072
No, she's been.. leashed
>>47546865
>>47546892
>>47546932
I'm taking off with every VTOL unit!
[Cgt]
Major! Which one do you want us to attack? The core or the exoskeleton?
We'll need two rolls!

C'mon CGT, C'MOOOOOOON
Rolled 7, 9 = 16 (2d10)
>>47547133
I'd say core because I don't want the collateral damage, but angels explode when they die anyway... but still core.
>>47547187
>I don't want the collateral damage
Welcome to Evangelion!
Would you like the collateral damage on or off tonight?
>off, please
Too bad.
I don't want to see what happen next.
Major! Florence's Entry Plug is still on the Angel!
Something must've went wrong with the ejection trajectory!
Isn't it a bit silly to call this thread 20? That would ignore both interims and the april fools.
>>47547225
CAN YOU DO A SNATCH AND GRAB QUICKLY !?
>>47547225
Send Anna to rescue her!
>>47547240
What he said, no pressure.If you fail we'll just make another one.
>>47547224
Florence and Rachel die, and it's revealed that the bomber wings were vaporised.
Also Residential 10 is destroyed.
Welcome to despair, you're gonna be here a while. Want some coffee? :)
>>47547225
Time to make those sweet engines burn!

I don't Ceg is that cruel to us anons. Now if it was Planefag on the other hand, I wouldn't put it past that fat Greek.

I wish fap angel would run something that isn't the most japanese wapanophile daiotakujinshi nipponnicheness.
Would it kill him to run some bloody One Piece, Naruto, FMA, or Bleach?

>>47547388
I don't understand it.
The waifu are fictional characters.
You can quite literally copy one of them into your own personal headfanon. They are not limited in supply. There is nothing to fight a war over.
Yes you can fight over who the MC fucks but the MC was never (You), it was a vessel for /tg/'s collective neckbeard. People who take it personally when the MC doesn't represent their own personal interests are getting unhealthily invested.
You don't see me throwing a shitfit whenever one of the various Majors gets all "my feelz the loss, I am sad abloobloo" do you? fuck no. I'm loving this quest, I'm loving the collateral damage, and if the MC doesn't represent me then that's fine. I'll still have all the other stuff I like.
Best waifu isrolling a 1 on a really important dice rollanyway.
[Second Child]
It's coming towards me!
Major! I-I need a d10 roll!
>>47547388
Can we actually that this quest has really seen a full blown waifu war? As far as I can tell it was just a few people pushing aggressively to go after Sophie and occasionally musing "Hey! Florence is legal right?"
Rolled 2 (1d10)

>>47547581
The only way to make it stop is to stop playing in the quest. If there are no players, the plot will not progress, and there will be no further grief.You're not gonna stop.
