Friday night=new forum game, and its about time I made one.

its 2156. science has proved nay-sayers wrong: project REDEX has launched and is fully operational. its the launch of a space station that will be fully mobile and going to colonize mars! everyone who signed up is rich, because it will take almost 40 years before they will be coming back. you are one of these people.
the station is really a ship, but was categorized as a "mobile station" because of its size and capabilities. its 3 miles long, 3 miles tall, and 5 miles wide. there is a rations storage capable of supporting 500 people for 75 years. and that is what it needs to do: because there are 500 people on this mission.
your goal was to colonize Mars. Surprisingly, it never happened yet, and this could be the 1st success. you are currently on the ship, with many other people. you know a few, but not many. you have been on the ship for 3 years now, and things are going well. you are all trained space marines, capable of using plasma lasers and special anti-gravity combat. you used to be an average soldier, but for this mission they said you needed to learn special combat.

character sheet:

Name:
Age:
Bio: (it doesn't matter if you choose to do this or not)
location: (tba)
----------
Command: (this is your division, the people in charge of you, and the people you are with. to be announced)
Rank: Private 2nd Class
Level: 1 (0/10 XP)
Class: (below)
----------
inventory: (to be announced)
equipment: (to be announced)

to be perfectly clear, you are all on the same ship. the admiral is in charge of everything, and his name is John Sylis. you address him as admiral Sylis. you don't need to know anything else, you will find it out for yourself. you have to listen to what your above command says. currently, that's everyone. if you don't listen to them, you could face consequences. but in this game you will craft an experience for yourself. what happens in this game will be escalating quickly, and anything happening to the ship will effect everyone.

Classes: (pick 1. this determines equipment, class, and weaponry you are good with.)
light assault: these guys are good with light assault weapons. they specialize in being quick and effective, and they are normally front line infantry. if this game comes to combat, your the 1st to fight. fast, average health, moderate damage, average accuracy.
heavy assault: these guys can use anything heavy. they are front line, and will always fight alongside eachother with light assault. more health, slow, heavy damage, low accuracy.
sniper: they are obviously long ranged pros with accuracy. using almost only sniper rifles, they are versatile. fast, low health, extreme damage, extreme accuracy.
combat medic: they heal downed people. this job is boring, hard, but potentially the most important on the field. their weapons are just a healer, which heals units and revives them. extreme health, low damage, average speed, extreme accuracy (using the healer)

armor must be attained, standard issue will be given to you but its weak. it will be class based, as well as weapons. have fun!

you see a man walk in front of the admiral. probably a dumb idea, but brave.

everyone in the com array sees this:

the thing stops growing. its large, black, and standing completely upright. its about 7 feet tall. the admiral begins.
"can you speak?"
it looks at him, then crouches to his height. the man in front of him (cameron) moves slightly back in front of the admiral. the thing starts making a clicking sound, and suddenly more of the aliens begin growing around him. 5 are growing, but taking as long as the 1st.

"Stop pointing guns at the **** thing! Do yo think if they wanted us dead they'd have done it by now? All we're going to do is provoke it!"

Dmitriy exclaims in a rare moment of decisiveness

there is no reason to adress this individually. you all hear and see this:

you hear a man with a russian accent yell "Stop pointing guns at the **** thing! Do yo think if they wanted us dead they'd have done it by now? All we're going to do is provoke it!" snipers keep their weapons trained on them, and the man in front of the admiral points a gun at the larger black one. the others rise now, all taking different forms. one is green, one has no eyes, and one slithers. its all to interesting.
"are you capable of understanding us? if yes, reach out your left arm," says Sylis. the large black one turns its head like a dog and begins making more clicking sounds. others begin growing out of the asteroid. Sylis turns around.
"im not sure if they are capable of leaving anymore, considering they crashed into us. im not sure weather they will attack, or continue growing, or leave. but i am sure that we could block them from the rest of the ship. everyone, we are going to leave this room, and trap them in here," says Sylis. there are almost 100 people now. he turns around, and begins walking out. however, no one else does. suddenly horrifying things begin.

the large black one screchees, and suddenly a large chunk of rock is flying at the admiral's head. he ducks, as if he knew this would happen. the rock hits another man instead, knocking him back.
"did you really believe that? attack them!" blaster fire erupts, men firing at the aliens. they begin attacking, dropping men left and right. people are finding cover and shooting. they are oddly immune to the lasers.

"The plasma/laser guns aren't working!" I start retreating. Also are there any normal guns that use bullets?

they arent exactly immune, they are just resistant. its not like they are immortal. and no, nothing on this ship fires regular bullets.

more keep growing out of the asteroid, making things complicated. a few of them fall, with some men getting attacked.
