[Game Thread] The West, Part One: The Gun Queen

Jartta Owens (sorry for the hold up)

Jartta was taken aback by Vicky. "A woman like that doesn't belong here, graspin' straws." Jartta gave a slight nod and said "Believe me Miss Vicky, it is my pleasure to do all I can to bring down them 5th battalion thugs. I'm not just doing this for you."

With that she looked at Legan, and gave a slight chuckle as if something he said was mildly funny. "And you, bartender, don't worry about that eye. I didn't loose mine by looking down the barrel of my own gun." Jartta's eyes shifted through the deserted bar. Unless they figured something in the next few minuets, there wasn't a damn chance that they were going to make it out of that bar to the sheriff's in time. Jartta played a quick test: She went up to one of the dense red curtains and shifted it back and forth slightly from a distance using a broken piece of a nearby chair. She wanted to see how well the place was watched.

The Weeping Widow Outside, Jartta spots the silloutte of a hatted man in the lamplight. As soon as the individual notices the curtains pulled aside, he casually steps to the side, out of sight. Cartel's men probably have a net around the place, with spotters positioned near every entrance. You'll need a proper spot check to see them all, though. They're doing a relatively good job at hiding themselves and staying out of sight. If a gun battle is inevitable, it would be best to fight it on your own turf, instead of letting it drag out on the streets where one can be easily ambushed. But the wise man always seeks a diplomatic, peaceful solution to any given situation. That is unless your aim is to stir something up with the 5th Battalion.

Jartta went to another window as to not alert the 5th to her presence and stared through the small opening though the curtains as to find the numbers and positions of the gunmen waiting outside.

Legan goes around the bar and starts collecting what he needs for Molotov Cocktails. Sorry Miss Vicky, he says with a smile on his face, but we gotta protect the bar, and I'm not up for diplomacy right now. Not after what these guys did. I'll try not to use the good stuff....

Bea watches all the preparations and grabs her revolver, just in case... She turns to Jartta, as she seems very experienced on combat and asks " 'Ow do ye think is the best way to get outta here?"

Jim remains in his current position, despite the enticing offer to make his way down the hill. He feels that having a sharpshooter on some high ground would be advantageous, since he can see a slew of enemies before him. All that he needs to wait for is Some sort of commotion to be able to fire off some shots without alerting EVERYONE to his location. [Sorry for the delay. I've been on vacation.]

Jartta turns to Bea, and just says "No, it isn't" Jartta retreats back into silence, concentrating on to get a good look at the gunmen Once she learns the layout, maybe she can come up with a plan. Just maybe.

Vicky, Legan says as he does his thing, you got any hidey-holes here we ought to know about? Anything which can get us out of here with minimal fighting? I don't like the idea of four of us versus how many of them...
