James Bond finds something horrible (Grace)

As the snowmobile growled to a stop near the top of a ridge, the rider, a man wrapped head to toe in heavy winter gear, stepped off and crawled the rest of the way to the top attempting to get a view of the base down below. The man, a one James Bond, pulled out a pair of thermal binoculars and sighted them on the base. He couldn't see any heat signitures outside, which he thought was odd, but considering the raging blizzard outside and the isolated nature of the base it was at least possible the people inside had decided to forgo leaving men on active watch outside. The base, run by a newly formed anarcist group, was located deep in the arctic circle and far away from all other human habitation, and according to the infromation obtained from a captured member, used to house and test a new biological weapon. Bond's mission was to infiltrate the facility, destroy all traces of the weapon and assinate the leader's of the group, all of which had gathered in the base earlier in the week to oversee the final testing phase before releasing the weapon onto the unsupecting public. Sneaking through the now three feet deep snow, Bond managed to get up to the building seemingly without incident and made his way towards the nearest door. As Bond approached the door, he noticed something odd. It had been left ajar and no light could be seen spilling out from inside. Bond sidled up to the side of the door, redied his weapon and slowly pushed it open, but nothing happened. As he glanced inside all he saw was a hallway extending into darkness. As he entered the hallway, Bond shed his bulky winter gear leaving only his signiture suit, he noticed a doorway leading into a side room. Inside the room were about a dozen flamethrowers and many fuel canisters. Further inside he comes across a scene of destruction. Someone recently flamebroiled a half a dozen people in a small room leaving no scrap of flesh unburnt. As Bond backs out of the room he notices a flickering light down the hall. It turns out to be a computer screen with a message displayed. It describes something horrible, with a leathal touch and that must be completely incenerated to ensure it's destruction.
Oh god. My writing's so rusty. I can't belive I'm allowing the internet to see this. Anyway, the setting's set, Bond has access to all his gadgets minus cars (this can be altered if nessasary) plus a few flamethrowers in the building. I won't equalize for now. The Thing has assimilated 7 people and are spread around the facility. Bond wins by completely destroying every trace of the Thing. The Thing wins via assimilating Bond. And, let's do it.

The Thing (John Carpenter)

James Bond
 
"M.... if I don't make it out alive, I'll buy you a drink in the next life"

Ok I gotta know. Is the base like around other buildings or is it like in an isolated area.
 
Oh man, there are way too many people infected for Bond to be able to properly stop this thread. I doubt he won't get tagged at least once and that's all it takes for his bloodstream to be infected. Furthermore, I assume Bond has no proper knowledge of the Thing, so he's screwed royally. Even with weapons that counter the Thing.
 
I saw the title and I knew it was The Thing. Give me a second.
 
Yea, I don't see Bond pulling this out. He would have no way of knowing there are multiple Things, nor that they transform. The chances of him burning down a random human is near to null, and even if he did, it would be far too easy for him to be caught from behind by a different Thing.

I vote The Thing.
 
He knows he needs to burn it and that it has a lethal touch. He doesn't know there are seven of it and that it looks like any regular human.Reply
 
Even if he does kill one of them,I'm sure he'll want to investigate the corpse which is very bad, cause the Antarctica crew had people to spare when they were investigating the creature. Him putting his hands anywhere near a dead body is the end of his story.
 
With Prep = Bond wins. He can easily just blow up the base with C4

Without Prep = The Thing takes it as much as I hate to say it. Unless he saw someone get assimilated we wouldn't know what is happening. Of course he wouldn't let a human let alone an assimilated human come up to him, but he isn't gonna use his best weaponry on some random person attacking him at first. If he could figure out that's it's a virus that needs to be assimilated then maybe he could win but it's more likely he gets caught out here before he figures it out.

So sadly, voting The Thing

From the mouth of the Bond guru, The Thing fra
 
Just gonna clear up a few things, the base is completely isolated and it's not a virus, it's single celled organisims that devour and mimic other cells.

And something else that's never come up in any other Thing match, it drastically out numbers Bond. This is immprotant because it's suggested that when the Thing has numerical superiority, untill that's not the case, stealth is no longer a priority. Suggested mind you as we've never seen the Thing with an actual numerical advantage and solo encounters would still stealth ops.

Bond - 0

Thing - 4 (Pixel, Arsenal, Cinnabar, Headless)

Oh, yeah. I guess I got overlooked lmao

Yeah if it wasn't obvious, I'm voting The Thing.
 
Thing wins

Which sucks because Bond has the tools to win, it's just in this circumstance he can't win quick enough before he loses
