Final Fantasy Hacktics

Rin is brought to attention by the mention of her opponent.  Switching briefly to ally comm., she makes her intentions clear.  "Don't take a shot at him before I have fallen!  This is my game, my prey!"  Switching back to public comm., "Siegy!  Are you ready to dance?  This is the final turn!  The final draw!"  With over-dramatic flourish, Rin tosses her ammo-less machine gun at Sieg.  Then she takes her Heat Sword in both hands and rushes Sieg.  Aiming to meet him head on to take her blade straight through the middle of his suit, Rin uses a booster dash to pick up max speed for max impact.  "Should I fall, remember me as I was!  A badass mother-of-a-bastard that didn't give a fuck!!"



Action 1; Throw MG @ Siegy
Action 2-3; Two-hand Heat Sword, Booster Dash @ Siegy, aiming the slash straight through him.
Action 4-5;  If failed, missed, or otherwise off mark, turn around and Booster Dash & Slash again @ Siegy.


Alternate;  As said before, yadda yadda, cancel actions if grabbed with a crane, yadda yadda, cut it, dash away.

Rin smiles madly within her simulated cockpit.  "Let's wrassle!" she says over public comm., tuning out everything but the battle before her.  She strafes with a booster dash, firing off a hefty load of rounds from her mg, trying to keep at least a decent amount of ground between her and her opponent.  Circling around at top speed, she fires off even more, planning to totally empty her ammo.


Action 1-2;  Booster Dash Strafe in the direction of the non-shield side of Sieg (if applicable) fast-like firing off 19 ammo.
Action 3-5;  Circle around with 2 Booster Dashes, forming a box formation, firing off 20 more.*

*If Sieg has not moved from default position, change direction of final Boost to a reverse.



Alternate Action; Again, if crane is used on Rin, use Heat Sword to slash it before Booster Dashing away.

Hearing what could only be the sound of Rellia's fall over the public comm, Rin begins to her allies, "Sometimes it is best to admit when it's time to retreat.  We took out two of theirs, and that other guy is barely going.  Atrius, Buliwyf, get back to our flag.  Weave through the plateaus and back up the Shield."  Rin begins moving south, as fast as she can, being wary of incoming attacks.  "I'm going to go play with the bear.  Atrius, since I'm gonna be busy, you manage who will be coming back for that flag!" 

With that, Rin makes a sudden turn for the oasis with a Boost and switches to public comm.  "Siegy!  Look at this mess you've made!  Your toys will never last if you always play so rough!  Luckily, I like it rough..."  Rin waves her Heat Sword as an invitation, and raises her 120mm, firing off a healthy take of rounds.



Pop Quickrunner
Action 1-3 ; Move to E13 (Assuming Buliwyf moves) -> E18 -> Boost toward O19 -> End on O19
Action 4 ; Fire off 21 ammo at Sieg.
Action 5-6 ; Ready to evade, circling the green oasis area if necessary.

Note ; If Sieg uses the crane on Rin, cancel current action and cut dat shit with Heat Sword, cancel next action to dash away if applicable.

In public comm.  "Oh Siegy... You know the one thing I don't do well is sharing."  Back to ally-only.  "Buliwyf, think you can finish off Serenes?  I'm going to try to finish off that Zaku I myself.  Let's regroup behind these buildings and see if we can't lure them out to us."  With that, Rin briefly buzzes out of her cover to hail the Zaku I with more generous rounds, before quickly speeding back into cover.  Answering Team Shield, "Don't worry Shield, I think we have this covered.  It looks like both their Offense and Defense was hanging around at their flag.  We fell into a bit of a trap but I think we've got it.  If we fall, the way should be wide open for a couple of you to get the flag."


Action 1-3 ; Move forward, shoot Maxwell with 15 rounds mg. +Evasion
Action 4-5 ; Return to F11, ready to evade incoming reaction fire.

"Heh, you know me Siegy, I always like to role-reverse!  Maybe once we're out of here you and I can have a nice little private sparring session for old time's sake?"  Switching to ally comm, Rin's tone changes completely. "Buliwyf, keep little Serenes pinned, I don't have thermal sensors to help without risking hurting you in the process.  Atrius, back me up.  I'm going to try to take out at least one of them.  Maybe you can try to finish off that one you crippled."  Rin charges her Zaku II along the fence and aims straight for the weak enemy Zaku I.  Raising her gun, she fires off multiple shots at the ill-equipped Snap Dragon.  Following it up on the close approach with multiple stabs of her Heat Sword.


Action 1-3; Move to J17->J10->Maxwell [Firing 120mm @ Maxwell with 21 Rounds] +Evasive Movement
Action 4-5; x2 Heat Sword slashes @ Maxwell

Rin flips over to public comm.  "Siiiiieg!  Speaking of feisty ladies, it'sa me, Renae!!  How you been big boy~?  I do hope you save energy for wrasslin' with the Mad Mare, hahaha!!"  Sneaky Zaku sneaky through the enemy base.


Action 1-3; Move to D18->E14->A10
Action 4-5; Move to A4->F2

"Team Spear, I think we should go straight left-field.  Their defenders will be expecting us to come out through their plateau maze, I just know it.  So we'll surprise 'em by coming through the base!"  Rin pulls out her Heat Sword with her suit's left arm.  Then, she begins running toward the left side of the map.  "Of course, if their offense team wants to come at our defenders through the plateau maze, we may end up having to play a little game with 'em.  Let's do this!"  With that, the Mad Mare enters the plateau maze, weaving through as carefully as she can while trying to maintain a brisk pace.  "The easy part is getting through our territory, the hard part will be getting through theirs undetected..."



Action 1; Equip Heat Sword @ Left
Action 2-5; Move in this pattern C40-> A38-> A25-> B25

Add. 1; If an Enemy is encountered enter into public comm. "COOOBRAAAAA!!"

"Sorry if this sounds harsh, but if a little slap like that upsets you, maybe you shouldn't be a soldier.  Keep in mind, those tanks you step on, those planes you smack out of the sky... those pilots behind the controls of stolen Zakus...  They are all people, just like us, fighting for what they believe in.  With friends and family that they care about.  And you're killing them as if they were nothing."  Rin looks away from everyone, avoiding eye contact.  "Discipline like that is nothin'.  There are no ladies here, nor are there any men.  We are only soldiers, doing our jobs.  And that job is to kill people, not just hit them hard."

Rin passes a glare to Quentin.  "And why wouldn't a woman deserve any less than a man if she acts out of line?  Are we to be coddled by our superiors and made weaker for it?  Only through strict discipline and hardening can we become good soldiers.  To deny a woman that based on her gender is to disrespect her."

Rin gives a low whistle and a face-splitting smile.  "Atty-boy!  I haven't seen a disciplinary slug that good since ummm... Since I broke Evan's jaw for smarting off one too many times!  I was wrong.  I think you can Commander juuuuust fine." She looks Atrius up and down in a way that should make anyone uncomfortable.

Rin lifts an eyebrow at the woman's declaration.  "Well, okay then... And you are?... Oh it doesn't matter.  Just keep the bear distracted so we can get the flag and win the game.  And be careful.  He may be a fool but he's a damn good pilot when he tries.  Sort of like me."

Rin teasingly pokes Atrius.  "Atty-Atty~, look, I'm being serious!  Aren't you proud of me, hm hm?"

"The flags should be set in very easy to spot locations.  We do not want to split up... what-was-your-name?  I highly doubt the Snap Dragons will be dumb enough to split their forces and make stragglers.  Sieg?  Yes.  But, Sieg is a one-man wrecking ball in a Mobile Suit.  Don't even try picking him off, you'll just end up beaten."  Rin sighs.  "Also don't even think about trying to take on an enemy suit by yourself.  Suits are hard things to beat, that is what makes them so vital in the war effort.  Either come with the Spear, or stay with the Shield.  Your long-range abilities would be of much more use behind the barricade at our flag."


"And I must stress.  Do not think about trying to take on Sieg by yourselves or even as a group.  Our key to victory is not taunting that bear.  If we do this right, we can steal that flag right under that fool's nose.  Though I imagine someone will need to keep him... preoccupied.  Far away from either flag.  Someone fast, flexible.  Someone that can avoid getting crushed.  I'd do it myself but I think my speed is put to better use getting their flag," she finishes, with a sort of depressed whine.

As if waiting for a cue the whole time, which she was, Rin began, "Capture the Flag is easy!  I mean, not easy when half of you are newbies and the Snap Dragons are all veterans...  But!  As long as we play smart, I am sure we'll win!"  Rin looks over the gathered people.  "We're going to need a solid group staying back at our flag.  Regardless of map, both sides usually have a fortified position.  Normally, there's three primary routes between the flags, though until we see the map we won't know.  But it doesn't matter!"



"Three or four of us will form into a team.  This will be the offense Spear, capable of tearing down enemy units or in the very least, disabling them.  We wanna do this fast and clean, so don't preoccupy yourselves with killing the enemy like we're playing a death match.  The flags are all that matter.  Defend ours at any cost, and get theirs at any cost.  I figure me and Atrius will do well on the Flag Capture job.  Speed is my thing and I can rush back to our flag zippity quick!  Of course, better if I stay under the protection of the rest of the offense team.  I don't know who else to come on the offense team..."



"Preferably someone proficient in melee combat.  Mobile Suits can shrug off normal bullets like you're spitting seeds at em.  But Heat Hawks and Heat Swords?  Oh, that'll hurt em.  Melt that armor and even cheap bullets might take em out thereafter."  She smiles at her Commander.  "Atty is such a good shot, I know he can hit wounds left by Heat weapons even from a long distance.  If any of you are good at pinning enemies down, that would greatly improve the offense's ability, especially if we face numbers."



"As for the team on defense.  We need people who have strong plating and shields to form a barricade, hopefully we'll have a choke point to take advantage of near the flag.  But considering how rigged this whole thing is, I doubt it.  We cannot let them get our flag, and even if their whole squad comes, have faith and we can hold them off.  At least long enough for the offense team to return.  Of course, if the defense team has no real power to take down enemy units, even the best defenders will eventually get overwhelmed.  Balance is key."



"I've been in simulations like this before, and the worst thing we can do is splinter into small pieces.  We have to be strong, even divided, and for that we should try to keep to just the two groups.  We don't even really know each other yet but we must move like a single entity.  And do not forget to use every resource at your disposal!"  She pauses for a moment before continuing.  "I am sure you all know your own abilities better than I, so speak up!"  She is not in the least bit exhausted from her long-winded strategy.

"I didn't even do anything wrong!  I get outnumbered by a legion of Feddie forces, and I have to fight alongside a bunch of poor innocent newbies with my life as a pilot on the line?  This isn't fair!  Not for me, not for these other people."  If Rin knew the location of a nearby soap box, she would likely have fetched it for her previous speech.

"Hmph! Just let them try to terminate me!  See if I care!  I only gave my entire being to the cause of Zeon...  Chances are my family would just pull strings to get me something truly horrible!  Like a desk job.  Or that crappy job those people in there are doing," she says, pointing to the communications room.  She moans loudy in a most distressed way.  "I don't want to do a dumb job...  I wanna blow stuff up and zip along at super fast speed..."

Getting pissy, Rin places her hands on her hips.  "Just trying to liven up your dour mood.  You're going to give yourself a heart attack, y'know!"

Not about to be ignored, Rin dashes in front of Atrius to answer his question.  "Atty Atty, my snakey wakey~, it's not my fault that you're so unaware of your surroundings!  And besides..."  She bursts forward in an obvious overly dramatized fashion, giving Atrius a full frontal hug.  "Oh, I just don't know anybody else on this whole base!  Being close to you eases my abyssal loneliness..."  The sarcasm in her voice is the only thing abyssal.

Pondering a few moments after hearing familiar names, Rin bursts to full attention.  "Suranai?!  Nagatsu Suranai?!  That's the bastard that stole my lunch and insulted my beloved beret before the Battle of Loum!  Oh. It. Is. ON!"  Rin is visibly angry, exhibiting cartoonish posing with fists clenched and grating teeth.  She seemed to recognize the other name, but that paled in the thought of that damn Snap Dragon.

A shrill gaps occurs behind Atrius.  Rin has been stalking him this whole time.  Because she does that.  It's not criminal.  Seriously.  Nooo.  "So that's why they reassigned me over here!  They want to get rid of me!  How dare they!" rages the Mad Mare.  After a pause.  "Capture the Flag, huh?"  She giggles.  "I know a strategy for Capture the Flag!"  Rin raises her hand and jumps up and down like an eager child in school.  "Atty!  Atty!  I know a strategy!  Pick me!"  Ignoring the fact that not everyone else in the squad was gathered yet.
