Practical Marksmanship | Session 4 | 7/30/10
As each week, the class met in the Danger Shop. This time, when the students stepped in they were in a shopping mall atrium the place was dank and musty, permeated with the stink of dead flesh. Price and Magnus stood over by a rainbow colored VW minibus that stood on a plinth surrounded by placards declaring it the car of the future. Price just smiled at the students and gestured toward a pile of ammunition and [moddable] weapons.
"Today we're getting back to business. Your task is simple. The only way out of this place is by driving this minibus out the front door of the mall. The problem is, it's got no gas. Strewn about this place are gas canisters, but you'll need to gather about eight of them to get it fully gassed and ready to go. There will be enemy hostiles. And no, I'm not telling you what to expect. I will tell you one thing, that today's exercise is supposed to stress the importance of keeping each other safe and not just yourself."
Ashley nodded. "It doesn't matter how good you are alone. Sometimes you need to have someone watching your back and you damn well better be sure that's someone you can trust."
"We'll be watching over the bus here, but we're programmed as non-combatants. The enemy won't even know Ashley and I exist. We're here to watch, and make sure you don't get in too deep. And no, you can't actually get hurt in the simulation. I'm not about to let you all sue my pants off."
"Oh, and there might be some surprise weapon caches or the like about. You're not the only ones who would've been fighting for survival here. Now... class is on. Let's see what you all can do."
