(OOC, when Simon killed the guard and stripped him of his shirt, what was the guard armed with. Rifle? Pistol? grednades

Tommy set out for the opposite shore, swimming strongly. After a few strokes, he began to hear spears splashing into the water all around him, but apparently the darkness was enough to prevent the natives from hitting him.crazycrypt wrote:Tommy will attempt to swim to the far shore away from where the spears came from. Before starting to swim he will shout to Simon, "Forget it, we'll try again with more forces, try and jump into the water." Tommy will then take off swimming, and hoping to hear a splash behind him from Simon. If, when he gets to shore there is nobody there, then he will attempt to run for cover (behind trees, a big rock, etc.). If he finds anyone on shore when he gets there then his actions will be different.
Simon found a rifle and a torch (flashlight).Hywaywolf wrote:(OOC, when Simon killed the guard and stripped him of his shirt, what was the guard armed with. Rifle? Pistol? grednades. Was he wearing an ammunition belt? Did he have a Flashlight. I am not talking about what might be in a pocket, but teh stuff that would be obvious when stripping him of the jacket)
Simon quickly aimed the rifle at the German sailor on the foredeck and fired; he saw the bright flash of the bullet ricocheting from the deck, and knew that he had missed. The sailor, evidently a quick thinker, returned fire, but his shot also missed its mark.Hywaywolf wrote:Simon says "Oh the hell with it, and fires his rifle at the German."
Tommy crossed the river with strong strokes, and climbing out through the rushes and mud, drew his knife. Looking back toward the sub, he could see the conning tower silhouetted against the sky; Simon was likewise visible, aiming down toward the foredeck.crazycrypt wrote:Once to the shore, Tommy will attempt to find something to hide behind. His gun is of no use since it is now wet, and therefore Tommy will pull out his knife and wait to see what happens with Simon. Unfortunately he realizes that he is not much use to Simon at this point.
Simon fired again, more quickly than his opponent, and saw that his aim was true this time; the sailor fell to the deck, and Simon could hear the clatter of his gun as it fell on the deck beside his opponent. Then a shot rang out from his left flank... the German on shore was shooting at him, but he had missed.Hywaywolf wrote:Simon will fire again at the German on deck fearless of any retaliation. battle fury is on him and he will refuse to surrender his position on the conning tower (more because he realizes to leave it now would likely be a sure death. ) He tries to keep an eye on the hatch leading into the ship just in case the ruckus out side draws the attention of those inside.
Tommy hid among the rushes on the far riverbank, trying to get a good look at the sub and the scene unfolding there. Why hadn't Simon dived in after him? Surely he could see he would soon be thoroughly outnumbered. But in the near-total darkness, Tommy could only see the silhouette of the conning tower and, somewhat vaguely, the figure moving about on top which must be Simon.crazycrypt wrote:Knowing there is not much Tommy can do in his current predicament, Tommy will watch as best he can at what is going on with Simon. Tommy will also look at the side of the sub that he can see in order to see if there is a way to climb back up from this side.
