Anderson Quest: Killing Vampires and Werewolves and Leprechauns (Hellsing/Bloodborne)

This is going to be a fight on whoever has the most limbs, so Triple Amygdala Special?

Keep a club out so we keep aggro, since the laser is the mosy apparent and proven threat.

Amygdala arm so it can do a surprise reach around, and get past its blocks.

Then the other surprise, with the Hidden Retractable Amygdala Fist of Sleeveland, when it least expects it.
 
[X] Aye ya' think ya can pull that trick on us after we pulled it on ye, huh?
-[X] Let loose a chain a party favors and slide 'em under it's improvised meatshield on a short fuse and give it some hot feet.
--[X] When it's distracted by what's going on below, prep yer extra fist in case you need some distance
---[X] And if it's really dumb enough to try n' sneak up on ya in all tha confusion, nail it wit' ta word while it's distracted.

Yeah uh let's maybe take this more seriously?
That's a bit unfair.

But that's fine. As we just saw, forcing it to stay in one place works to our hilariously lopsided advantage.

@TehChron I'm not sure if it's just me or not, but I can only understand like half of your plan.
I may have written it while distracted by a Thirst Nexus but I'll sum it up

Step 1: Throw explosive bayonet chain and slide it along the ground so that way it can go off and fuck up the Wet Nurse's feet
Step 2: While it's doing that, load up the Amygdala Fist as an emergency precaution to fuck up it's blender mode at an opportune moment
Step 3: By this time the Wet Nurse will likely try to do something clever and either become fully stationary or otherwise overextend itself. In which case, we hit it with a Ward and that'll hold it still for long enough that the posse get another shot at the thing.

With the club handy for parrying and shooting with the amygdala fist ready to act as an emergency counter, that'll prevent the wet nurse from getting any momentum while we wait for the Gang to take advantage of any openings that present themselves.

BOMBS AWAY!
 
Are we gonna try and save the meatshield, or is he a lost cause?
Fight's too fast-paced to try and take the initiative on that, setting aside that baiting us into trying to rescue the guy is a part of the Wet Nurse's plan in the first place.

That's why the best move is to disrupt it's rhythm and keep it on the constant backfoot. If it loses it's grip on the mook, then that means the fights turning ugly for it whether due to discarding said mook, or because it had the mook taken from it outright.

Poor meatshield-kun, nobody wants to save him.
 
We could always try to swath the meat shield in bible pages, surrounding him with a ward that would make the Wet Nurse drop him.

Tactically, it makes sense to preserve our advantage of numbers if prudent.
 
The standoff continues for several moments, the creature's blades twitching in arrhythmic feints and your crew rooted to the ground in anticipation of its first real move. You offer a few fakes of your own, none of which draw a reaction. Time to upgrade it to a Mexican standoff.

With clear, deliberate movements, you return your bayonets to your sleeves and pull out the club, twisting it like this. You point the thing upwards and fire a brief shot, which does manage to draw a flinch from your opponent. With a grin, you lower the barrel until it's pointed at the Wet Nurse's chest. The serpentine head swivels to look behind it for an instant and, despite the lack of any kind of facial features, you can tell it knows exactly what you're planning. As soon as it snaps back, anger rippling through its form, you pull the trigger.

The thing curls in on itself, putting as much flesh as possible between the child and the beam of righteous combustion. Burning cloth spirals into the air and the pressure wave sends feathers streaming from its wings, but it does not falter. You only release the trigger when your gloves start melting into your flesh, and you don't even have a chance to swap ordnance before six sickles come screaming at you atop rapidly extending limbs. Smoke trails from one of the arms, charred and torn down to the bone, and in the compressed time that permeates your life-and-death struggles you see its grip on its weapon faltering.

Eldritch steel clashes with Amygdalan chitin as you struggle to keep your molten weapon between you and the pissed-off beehive of blades. It's doing a remarkable job of making sure you can't block more than a couple at once, though your retreat forces it to settle for glancing blows that barely have time to bleed before they re-seal themselves.

Just as the pace appears to be picking up, the main body closing in on you, one of its arms drops to the ground and it lets out a piercing shriek. One of your posse, a swordsman, leaps away with blade bloodied as his companions bear down on their wounded quarry. Immediately, the other five arms retract and turn the area surrounding their owner into the sort of blender 1:00 AM infomercials dream about. A torchwielder goes down without a leg, but the rest do an incredible job of either slipping just out of range or somehow parrying the onslaught.

It makes sense, you realize. No matter how diverse the arsenal, a fighter is always going to have some patterns it prefers. You generally figure them out after getting cut to shreds a few times, but for those without bullshit regeneration, there's always spending decades watching dozens of your compatriots die to the same opponent.

The multitasking prowess that lets it avoid cutting its own arms off shows itself as you put your weapon on your shoulder for another shot. One of the two weaponless arms lashes out and grabs your wounded teammate, alternately whacking the others with him and dangling him between itself and you.

Points for improvisation, you suppose.

You either mean strategically or logistically

Tactically, hes bleeding out and is in the way while we still maintain the numbers advantage regardless of whether he lives or dies.
