>>>>>[We got more on the house than we might have expected. One charge
misfired and another was badly rigged: if they'd gone off properly,
there wouldn't even have been the shell of the house standing, so nobody
gets into the basement, so no radiation. Whoever blew it didn't expect
to get spotted that fast.
As for burying the bodies... maybe they figured that we wouldn't look
too closely at the site if it was just an explosion-and-fire. Instead we
picked up the rads and that was it, fine-tooth-comb time. Easier to kill
them and bury them on site than to truck corpses around and throw them
in Puget Sound, I guess.
Or maybe we're dealing with someone squeamish about how they treat their
dead? I'm Sioux and I don't like leaving dead men face-up, for instance.
Or maybe it's a guilt thing - "we murdered these men, but at least we
gave them Christian burial."
It looks more like a planned shutdown. Lilith's posting the autopsy
work, but it boils down to execution, not firefight.
Concur on sale, unless we're dealing with total fruitloops. The problem
is, anyone crazy enough to use a nuclear weapon will want to do as much
damage as possible. If it's Humanis, then with the wind in the right
direction that contamination cloud will drift over either Tir Taingire
or the Cascade Ork lands. Either way they win <g> Especially if it's not
a local faction.
This operation has to have been running for some months. Maybe this is
what Thunda was there to distract us from? We've still got nowhere
trying to run down who his backers were. Hopefully, Haversham's put two
and two together and made forty-seven here: maybe she got a sniff about
the weapons and thought the worst.
If not, we're in trouble.]<<<<<
