Lower Deck Salt Storage

[IronTeapot]

This has to be a record for the highest pile of dead Ayys.
They held long and hard against the xenos truly, the greatest marines. Emily Skyfall is the name the Queen Mother screeches in her sleep.

The answer is simple. Marines still got rolfstomped. All of the dead sisters will be remembered. Rip in peace, sweet prince.

[superjo98]

This is the most beautiful thing I have ever seen.

[IronTeapot]

Can it truly be called a victory? Countless sisters dead to one marine, marine morale at an all time high. This was a Marine strategic victory, we lost the battle but the war is ours.

They would have killed a lot more if they played it right and not FFed the hell out of each other. A couple of nades would have worked wonders and moving the MG back a square so it wasn't able to be immediately killed would have meant many dead benos.

2/10 for effort

[VitorThauma]

The barricades, the barricades were open.

Inb4 new patch tonight, five more ladders added to vehicle bay.

[Retrokinesis]

Clearly, this will warrant an immediate change to the map as well as nerfs to the mounted SG, shotguns, and grenades (they did use one before the FF nade). But the impact of the xeno changes is still being assessed and only selective nerfs versus predators are needed for now.

Why would shotgun, M56D, or grenades require to be nerfed after this round.

It was literally the chokepoint, nothing else. Xenos had no other way to enter the tank crewman area, and they were forced into a bad position in front of a powerful turret that is SITUATIONAL along with grenades and shotguns that fit in this SITUATION.

You're logic is clearly flawed, think over this again

Smh

[Aestel]

I got some salt for the salt storage. 50 xenos vs 18ish marines(only 6 actual combat marines).


Sell your xeno salt, supply is at an all time high!

[Park]

The cheese that round was almost greater than the salt that was flowing from dchat. Good on you, Rose, for taking advantage of the cheese to give us the second marine major in two days.

[BillyBoBBizWorth]

Mmm, yes, i was there and remember this round, unfortunately.There was so many dead xenoes on them tiles that as soon as i got down there as a ancient defender, i did rest and watched for a little while, then after i think a pilot was removing all their "kills" from the ladder area, i got unrested and went back up the ladders.Queen mother assured us even this position was no match for our sheer force! How she was wrong, so very wrong.

I will admit, i fell for the tank coming up through cargo strategy, as even though i told myself i wasn't going back down there, i almost instantly went straight for the ladders, went down and got killed instantly.I think they ended up doing that twice effectively.

Next round, marines told not to use ladder of death to achieve /obj/structure/ladder major.

I mean, haha, it was always going to happen, many xenoes dying from going down a single path like that, you see it at the SD and thats on the same Z level.

[Retrokinesis]

The queen being kidnapped via the tank elevator is the best thing to happen since the update. It will all have been worth it because we will always have the memory of that amazing moment.

[zoboomafoo]

I remember seeing that spot when they added the lower deck at first and thinking "goddamn what a dumb mapping move, the marines are going to kill so many goddamn xenos"

And by dumb I mean G R E A T.

[spookydonut]

I expected this, I wanted to see how terrible xenos attacking down a ladder was in reality

[Sambalu]

This is fine

The man speaks truth

[TheDonkified]

You guys remember the 4+ hour Ice Colony rounds when xenos would hive at crashed dropship knowing that there was only one entrance?

That was TACTICAL use of the tank. Tank bait, best bait.

Late on this but I'll dump more pics. Played as a PO that round, helped fix the wounded with a first-aid pouch I "borrowed" from Aestel, got blown up by a grenade that put me into critical, then killed by a spitter that got down past the barricades the drunk SO left open. Pics are taken after I died. I also learned that even though I was a PO, I was super medic who could make people breath again just with bandages, ointment, a stack of splints, and both the baby injectors.











Here's a link to HKO2006's channel he recorded the round.

I am very sad that I missed this round.
