I am not sure If this was clear from my summary, but we only know that the gunboat is controlled and created by the pirate monster. We don't know If He is on the boat or hidding further in the cave.
(I did not check the IC yet since writting the summary.)
Edit: Huh, you know the reason Why I asked how up the ceiling was So I could shoot it and bring the ceiling down on the boat. It is a great plan on its own, but not while Mina is their drilling into the bottom.
Darius sees the glowing Elizabeth and says "...are you...alright, Miss Arche?" Before snappend out of it and looking at the three bullets shot at the ship, or more specificly, the damage done by them.
Butt! Butt! Butt!
Butt mister I just, it is more fun that way.
Leaving things to chance and let you weave us a tale with the decisions we make.
Granted we wil not always roll, only when we think chance needed, me thinks.
Because I like this RP and have an odd need to answer the questions, upon looking it over our group is split in two camps: camp 'Foighting the poirate monster gunboat' and group 'Flying to the plot in awesome-McGunship'.
Camp fight that boat has Darius&Typhon (yours truely), Mina (Its-you @GuesssWho), Elizabeth-being-possesed-by-Ees'Vee-to-avoid-Elizhannigens (@silentspirals) and Valiard&Murder-McBunny (@THatWhichWillBe).
Of camp fight that pirate only three members are doing something. Darius shot the boat, Mina is drilling into the boat and Possedabeth is halping. Valiard hasn't done anything since Darius tried to heal him (last I checked)
Camp God-damn-it-following-Elizabeth-was-important-afteral-now-we-have-to-catch-up consits of Dennis (NPC so @I just writes territory), Remi (@TheMaskedReader's haunt), Rannoch (With the lords of passages and bad practical jokes himself, @Janus (What I am not bitter the blob ya yapping about?)), Geoff (@Enerald_Mann), Dr.Dave (@Zedalb) and lastly but not leastly Albert (@Shard).
Remi is currently helping Dennis, Dennis is flying the awesome-bee and Albert is doing some ranged assistance without knowing what were fighting through the power of meta.
Also Rannoch is there, hasn't done anything in this scene yet.
Also Dr.Dave and Geoff are there, Geoff has done nothing since the labscene I think. Haven't even seen Dr.Dave show up yet.
So, as you probally know the train arrives in the cove with Elizabeth, Mina, Darius, Valiard and the later two´s pets. Pirate makes his opening speech. As seen on the map, on the left their two walkways going upwards (one higher then the other) and to the right are steps down, going to a dock with a gunboat.
There is fifty meters between the train and the gunboat (30 meters vertical). The train has 20 meters clearance vertical and the lake has 60 meters clearance.
The monster is made from three tropes: underground level, father neptune and out-gambitted.
So we are in an underground cave, against a pirate monster that counters everything we do.
Lastly we now have to roll stuff, but most people use D100.
As you probally assumed, those grey blocks on the map represent the train. There are Civilians there, but they are either knocked out or cowering in fear.
Valiard moves towards the stairs as mini-Valiard and gets blown up by mines. Darius laughs and gloats at Elizabeth that this is a place of war and not sniveling brats, then goes to heal Valiard and sends Typhon to deal with the mines. Mina turns into a bird so she can fly to the water and jump in. The monster then counters that by opening a secret entrance where a scruffy pirate with a blunderbus comes from to attack Typhon. Meanwhile the gunboat opens fire on mina with incendiary flak charge (perfectly timed to hit her).
Mina rolls low dodge so just dive bombs into the water. Darius kills the pirate by shooting it with the fancy gun he stole from Elizabeth (lets assume she did not blow Darius up because she saw him kill that pirate she did not even notice). The pirate turns out to be made from clockwork. Darius shoots a bullet at the flak, to seem like he is blowing it up but it passes perfectly through the flak and ruins the front auto-cannons of the gunboat and kills some clockwork crew man. Darius takes the time to check on the clockwork crew man and fix the gun Elizabeth damaged (Feisten service pistols are durable like you would not believe). The passage way the pirate came out of is still intact, but it is clearly a trap as it can collapse any moment, so Darius throws a pebble in and the passage way collapses. He wanted to make sure he did not get flanked.
It is a this point that the gun boat turns its broadside, it guns glowing green ready to open fire. (this is what the GM threatend to kill Elizabeth with). Mina was in the water but got bits of her destroyed by a depth charge. Mina turned into a drill in drilled into the bottom of the gunboat. Darius shot three of shots of Elizabeth's his rifle towards the broadside of the ship, intend on blowing it up. He then walked to higher ground on the walk way, Typhon checking for traps. Valiard has done nothing else but is probally recovering after the healing Darius gave him. The magical healing fall flat but the mundane healing went pretty great.
(Oh and Darius has been throwing lowkey shade at Elizabeth for doing nothing this whole time and enjoying being usefull in combat.)
Meanwhile, while we are busy fighting a pirate @TheMaskedReader tips of Remi that we are fighting a monster. So Daniel gets into his rad-ass ship the gunbee with Remi giving directions. This was never mentioned, but lets assume @Shard and @Janus are in the gunbee aswel, but in the passenger seats and not in the cockpit with Remi and Daniel.
Lastly, because I want to, about the gun Elizabeth found.
Darius has currently 3 rounds left in his magazine, because he fired 5 of them. So he has 19 rounds in total.

However, for ease of use, let me explain the current situation.
Gunboat is done with our shit and gets ready to fire. @silentspirals got done with Elizabeths shit, getting her gun stolen by an old man not doing anything about, so took over her body and started to full avatar-state. So she lifted and repaired the train and healed all the people on it and send the train on its merry way away from the battlefield, so we don't have to deal with defending civilians and can focus on punching/shooting/eating pirates...made from gears.
Mina is drilling into the bottom on said boat and possed-Elizabeth (possedabeth if you wil) help her, probally by making forcefields or some shit.
Darius, being a simple man, shoots at the gunboat with his gun while being on highground.
Valiard is still sitting on the ground.
However, what is important for you @Janus is camp dos. You are in the gunbee being flown by Daniel, or poor insomniac cinnamonroll of a caretaker.
Remi (@TheMaskedReader 's character) is helping him navigate. While Albert (@Shard 's special boi) is doing meta shannigens.
You are sitting in the ship with Albert and two other characters who have done little up to now. The Gunbee is military transport and you have plenty room to sit.
For further ease of use, the battle is undergrond vs a monster made of the following tropes: [Father Neptune, Out-gambitted and Underground level]
We are, as you can guess, in a cave. (That is camp uno, the people not the gunbee with you, Shard and masked reader)
We have no clue how we got there.
Wel, yes that is true. I meant that tunnel was not supposed to be there so for all we know we got teleported underground.
I mean, part of this happend because god was done with our shit and really wanted us to punch some monster.
Really, most of this scene can be discribed as thus: Thing A Happens because entity B is really done with entity C's shit.
Suprise pirate monster appears, because @I just write is done with Elizabeths shit.
Elizabeth gets possed, because @silentspirals was done with Elizabeths shit.
Darius was shooting at the gunboat, because Darius was done with the Boat's shit.
Mina starts drilling into the boat, because she is done with the Pirate monsters shit.
The bound were made by the good doctor, because the Government was done with the Monsters shit.
Grandma Cacassi moved, because she was done with her Grandson's shit.
Actually, my Summary post from Yesterday is still mostly valid here.
Biggest differances are kind of mentioned in the qoute below.

Your welcome, I have an unstatiable urge to explain things. That and I had done most of it already yesterday.
Also, yes, your welcome Janus presly, king of rock and doors.
Wel, your roll was pretty low (a 5 out of 100, ouch) but my rolls were...beter? A 12 out of 100 for magical healing and a 95 out of 100 for mundane healing.
You had 'Several shatterd ribs and several minor injuries', so the healing would have made your ribs a *little* bit better while the mundane healing would probally have solved all the minor injuries.
That and Possedabeth went all miracle on the train healing people and you were 3 feet infront of Elizabeth. So I think you are fine for the most part, just a bit bruised.
If you want advise, hide behind the tank, aka Darius. I wil probally either badass grandpa us out of trouble OR take the hit for you, which I can because around half my super power points went into being very tough.
Also, @I just write because I am already writting summaries, am insane and want a informational threadmark for some reason, I am going to me a catchup post.
What I am going to do is read through (although mostly skimming) all the OOC and IC posts to make an easy post to read to back into the game, get into the game as a beginner, or for players to double check their lore.
However, it is with all the butts that apply with me. I might post a starter and never bother to finish, more lickely is that it wil be rideled with grammar and spelling errors.
This wil in a seperate post.
Because lets be frank, having a post to check what has happend and some lore things without having to read informational posts or look back for a certain un-threadmarked post is a pain.
So I wil work my self up the become Lizard knight, Eldritch lord of summaries.
Nice idea, but I don't think I jus- God is going to let you do this. Especialy With only halfish points in trope shannigens.
It wil probally be more a plot shield Then full armour. Doing things like deflecting bullets Because plot.
