Due to time constraints, and it being a reactive thing, rather than pre planned, a few details were a bit more rushed that id have liked.

Either way, by the time i spawned UPP there were 2 lrp xenos chilling in water and nothing else. The original count of 3-4 xenos and no one willing to be queen, vs 18 marines and 30 something humans. Goal of 'event' was to give marines and and dchat a minimum of action that round, so as it not to be an utter waste of time for everyone. Upp moved a bit faster than anticipated but due to their count (6 or so) i wanted them to have an advantage and thus allowed them be a bit more of a surprise ambush. They were the main antag of the round.

Also there was a few spider shenanigans ground-side that again were done with a similar purpose, but mechanical execution was not done by me.

Ideally id have liked if i had time to set up a proper upp outpost on the colony, but time constraints lead it to being a boarding ambush on the Almayer instead. Notably this wasnt done as post end of round, tho a minor delay was done to accommodate a decisive end to the conflict, and to avoid round ending by 30 or so. this was done with a vote too.

One mistake i did make was being too unspecific with the heads up for the marines, the initial the announcement was meant to be a bit longer, but i had to cut it short for it to be send in a timely manner, due to upp moving abit faster than i expected.

The time constraints were due to me deciding later in the round that something like this was indeed desirable and in the interest of the round, initially i was willing to let the queen time out kick in and end the round. but it seems this is no longer a thing as by 25 round didnt auto end, and there was no queen to the best of my knowledge.

Ok, I thought that the round event was just a low effort aspawn, but it seems it was more so just a bad execution of it. I was most bothered when I ahelped it and it was marked as IC even though I only figured out what was happening seconds before I was gunned down by UPP.

I will withdraw my report.
