Well, I still can't say for sure I understand what you mean by in front of the APC, because that means two things where I'm from.

Well, I still can't say for sure I understand what you mean by in front of the APC, because that means two things where I'm from.
Well, I'm not entirely sure how I feel about this damn APC anymore.
Couple of questions Brovo.
Is the giant fleshy beanstalk in front in regards to the APC, or in front of the APC from our characters perspective. Essentially is it between us and the APC, or past the APC?
Also, what direction is the APC facing? Considering the smooth man apparently slipped round to the other -side- of the APC, and the wolves are attacking the front, I assumed we were moving towards it with it facing side on because you said he was attacking the door. Is the door at the side of the APC then? or at the back? Wouldn't that mean the smooth man was alongside the wolves and therefore visible if he went to the opposite side, aka the front of the APC?
As everyone keeps telling me how lethal you are I'm going to treat this like Arena, and anything that's not clear as crystal is a problem. It's possible I've just misread the situation, but I'm not finding these things completely clear.
To clarify, I believe we're moving towards an APC at an angle of either - or / in relation to our characters. There are two wolves eating the bonnet of said APC, and a smooth man hacking at a door on its right side (closest to us) who has just jumped over to the other side (left side.) While our characters apparently stand around like idiots and let him talk to us I might add (which is where I'd be interrupting with a shotgun blast to the face, if this were Arena, but I'm guessing that's not OK here.)
Is this all correct?
This is important because I don't understand how walking around the APC would make it any more likely the wolves would spot us. If anything, we're just as visible walking towards the APC from our current position, and at least walking behind it would put the APC as an obstruction. to their vision.

I was thinking more along the lines of us running to the near side of the APC to grab the VIP. If Kad wants to go jump on top and rain fiery death upon chainsaw guy and the couple wolf things that were over there, fine by me. Nathaniel's #1 priority will be getting straight to the APC, then getting the guy out. If you wanna tag team it up with Kad's fiery death machine to take on scary chainsaw guy, that could work as a good distraction whilst Limey/Daniel provides covering fire. The dudes in the tank should be able to help with covering fire as well.However it works, the chainsaw guy and the dogs are on the other side of the APC, so I don't see why in the world we'd want to go meet that face to face if we could possibly grab what we came for and get him to safety BEFORE screwing with Mr. Chainsaw McRipYourHeadOff.
Maybe I've misread the scenario, I was under the impression that the APC was at an angle with us approaching it at least relatively side on and that the wolves were tearing the front of the APC to shreds, making it dangerous as all hell to approach from the side we were on, and leaving the smooth Chainsaw wielding man alive leaves us open to a bloody death when trying to pull the VIP's out. Going round the back would put us as far from the wolves as possible, but also allows us to kill the chainsaw man and get the hell out of dodge with the VIP's with as little interference from anyone else as possible.
My plan still has almost exactly the same end game, get the VIPs as fast as possible, just I feel like we have to at least deal with the melee man to do it.
I'm going to take another gander at the scenario and see if I've misread it.
Fury watched Kanitah fly off the cliff, shaking his fist a little to clear the pain as was to be expected after such a forceful collision. He looked down to find his feet had sunk a little into the ground, but not too much.
“Fuck you Old Man.” He muttered rudely, thinking if he had not slain his foe he had at least seen the last of him for now. Then he drew his energy-seeking attention to studying Khazna’s position, wherever that skinny fuck was now he had some explaining to do. Fury turned on his heel, an angry twist to his lips as he looked again to where the Ice-skating little fairy had made off to.
He spotted two distant figures atop another rocky island suspended by more of the webbing all around him. Though he wasn’t gifted with particularly powerful sight, he could certainly see that the duo were people he recognised, one the icy bastard who had started all of this and the other likely Khazna. He spat on the floor, just as a guttural scream pierced the air… and it wasn’t getting further away.
He looked back to the chasm his foe had fallen in, where a steady powerful energy was being unleashed. The Fireen could only answer by drawing his own energy, an energy spear beginning to pulsate in his hand. More and more power accompanied the scream.
“Shit.”

I was just saying, because you keep saying: "Normal human."
That's a more accurate reference for you, I'm not saying what it can do to your character because I don't really know.
Anyone fancy accompanying a reserved old Orc through the town as he laments on the good old days and buys supplies?
I'm going to guess no.
I'm going to guess no.
OMFG
Hmm, yup.

Psst.Melonhead.You should probably re-read those Character Sheets.Because Kanitah is equally a strong as Fury is physically.That's not counting Darligrov's effect.With that he's also faster.
Doesn't really matter, your character can't properly employ his strength when in the air. He's also fully extended his fists and relied entirely on his momentum to drive home the attack (something you yourself mentioned) which means it's only really gravity+momentum+his weight applying force to his attack, which doesn't have much on Fury's cool ten tonnes of lifting power and a blow thrown properly from the ground.
I haven't really said Fury's stronger then your character, neither, only his weight is insignificant to him.
The problem is my character can't really fight alongside the Mechs, because they'd be setting everything on fire awfully close to his face, so it makes more sense for us to fight in separate groups for this conflict at least.
The main question is who wants to lead our assault? If anyone is particularly gun-ho as a Mech pilot they could engage the wolves while they're unaware, putting them out of the fight early and leaving only the other two wolves + inevitable reinforcements as a threat. Meanwhile, the foot soldiers can just sneak round the back, pop a flash-bang over the APC and then swerve wide past and blast smooth-chainsaw friend to death while he's hopefully blind.
Then we rescue the good guys and run away into the sunset, out of the death fog of death.
