Fraze, where did the second airship come from? I'm not sure if I'm missing something. =P Thundy's post, unless I'm misinterpreting it. It might not be an airship specifically, but one way or other some big burning flying thing is falling out of the sky. Again.

Think of it as a flying WWII era battleship with cannons and armor, powered by a nuclear reactor, and definitely crashing to the ground on fire very soon.

We're not using the "phoenix fire burns through anything" trope. Basically, if you're entirely living, you just get a it warm. If you've got demonic or Underdeep blood, it may sting a bit. If you're a zombie, you're ash, and I'm letting Hunty decide how the commanders are going to survive this.
In my defense, I'm not rewriting the rules, I'm only using a different, more convenient set of rules.

They're going to survive this by being approximately ten miles away from where we currently are.
...there, that was easy.

Sorry about copping out with an Andy post, I'll put a Bacon post up as soon as I can, and a Cal post whenever I figure out what exactly the zombies he's watching are doing.

Okay, so an ill-timed and ill-placed use of a potentially game-breaking WMD just caused Ms.Jemson to run after all of SPoP. This is going to be interesting. Two questions for GMS: 1. Is Jemson taking a path that will meet up with the boat that many of our characters are on? 2. Are the combined forces going to reach Castle Kestrel anytime soon?

I'm not entirely sure where said boat is, but she'll be beelining for Stinky-Pile-o-Poo and that's an entirely land-bound route, so she likely won't. 2. They should be almost there. I'll try to throw 'em into my next post, there isn't much to cover on my Hunty side of things.

Looking at the map again, and actually using logic- Ms Jenson is heading from CK to SPoP, while the rescue party is heading to either CK, or the other direction. By virtue of the triangle path of the rescue party, even if they do reach Kestrel, they likely will be a mile apart at the closest, and reach locations at the same time (factoring the added speed of the boat).
So, yeah, you are right.

Speaking of the direction of the rescue party, where is the zombie army going? I thought they started off at CK, headed to MM, and then were continuing in the same direction from there. Are they going back to the castle?
I'm fine with Tiger being wrong about what direction they're headed, I just don't want to teleport zombies somewhere they're not if Boat Party happen to reach a shore in the opposite direction =P

Hey, Thundy, what are the dimensions of this ship, roughly? Width, height, length, that sort of thing. It may be relevant to my next post. Also, is it laying on the port or starboard side?

Approx 900 ft in length, 150 foot diameter, a cylindrical shape as well, like a cigar, tapered at each end. Lying now on its starboard side, with the top of the ship (with command bridge, radio mast, various guns) pointed towards the village of Smelly Pile. Wreck is about 200 feet away from the buildings on the edge of the village.

Perfectly cylindrical, but the bow and stern are streamlined, narrowed, and pointed. And yes he should be able to, there's a glass paneled bridge on it which can be seen into and out of from ground level.

((No one was posting, so I decided to try to push things along a little.)) I actually have less of an idea of how to write my post than before you posted this, strange as it may seem. I don't know. >_> *shrug* I'd hate to think everyone's waiting for me to post, though. I'll try to come up with something soon.
