World War 1 CYOA

[Hickory]

You snap a crisp salute to the Germans. Thomas would be proud. The German soldiers exchange looks. One of them asks you something in German. "Wie heißen Sie?"

Shrug.
Attempt to say your name (or make one up) in German.
Shoot the Germans.

[Groddil]

Klaus von Klaus!

[Hickory]

Simple German can't be that hard. You recall a few things a regiment-mate taught you. "Mein Name ist Klaus von Klaus...?"

The Germans stare at you, then start laughing. Then they raise their rifles.

Shoot them with your pistol.
Put your hands up.

[Groddil]

Pull out grenade and hold pin to threaten them.

[Hickory]

Evidently the Germans aren't totally sure what you can do, because you manage to whip out a grenade and have your finger hooked in the pin. "Listen up Jerrys', I've got a grenade ready to blow you to hell," you say maliciously. The Germans seem to recognize the danger and start to back away, keeping their guns trained on you.

Pull the pin.
Don't pull the pin.
Fake pulling the pin and throw it at them.

[Groddil]

Walk towards them. Don't let them get out of blast range, or they'll shoot. Similarly, if we actually throw it, there's a 50/50 chance they'll shoot us before they leap to cover.

[Hickory]

You advance towards the Germans, still ready to pull the pin. "Don't make me do it..."

They continue to back away. Distant gunshots echo... perhaps there are still some friendly forces in the area?

What do you do?

[HeadInAnotherGalaxy]

Keep valkin' tovardz zem und zay "joggen", und zmoile.

[Hickory]

((Not to rain on your parade, but that steps beyond the line of "foolish" into "makes no sense whatsoever."))

[Groddil]

Tell them to drop their guns.

[Hickory]

"Drop 'em!" you say to the Germans. They look about, confused. "No, just..."

You motion for them to drop their guns, as well as you can while holding the grenade ready. They hesitate before setting their rifles in the mud.

Let them run away.
Shoot them with your Luger.

[Hickory]

If anyone else would like to continue this, I would be happy to do so.

[Ashleg]

Take out your pack of cigarettes and offer it to them and then shoot them.

[Hickory]

You always kept a pack of the finest front-line ration cigarettes on you, and, pulling your Luger out of its holster, you fumble for a second to manage the Luger and put away the grenade, and manage to do so as well as pull out the pack of cigarettes. Taking a couple out, you offer them to the Germans tentatively, and they hesitate before taking them. You provide your flip lighter, and they light their cigarettes, blowing out puffs of smoke.

Plenty of time on the Argonne front has perfected your aim, both of the soldiers fall dead with two less rounds in your Luger. The threat taken care of, you holster the weapon and turn back towards the forest.

Continue to the forest and attempt to return to your lines.
Delve deeper into German territory.
