I'm sure she'll be happy to teach him once she gets over hating him for being green!!!

Wait, you're green? Well then, no lying lessons for you !

And good job to Aanu and DLMA! It would have been really sad if the highest player initiative slot was earned by the semi-unconscious person!

Heh! 5 Willpower comes in handy...

That it does. That it does.

Also, sorry for bombarding your PM box, Shy. I'll shut up!

...oh, and just as a reminder: No throwing the human! DLMA,I'm looking at you...maybe at Aanu a little.

Aanu isn't gonna throw the human. Well, that human. She will totally throw the Stormtroopers.

And it's all good! I've been reading through the things a bit. They're fun.

Well, if I can't throw her--D does have her blanket with her as her personal item, compacted (basically vacuum-packed) in a satchel or carrying cord. Kalira may end up swaddled if we can't trust her in combat.

O_O

She would find that so incredibly humiliating! That would be awesome, you should totally do it!

Although I was planning for her to be mostly out of it for this fight still, maybe using the basic power of Influence to slap some strain around if I can find an in-character reason for her to do it on the Stormtroopers. Maybe she realizes she doesn't want to be seen with you lot, and subconsciously attacks the Troopers' minds so they don't remember?

I dunno. We got time, I'll think of something!

I think we should work the combat out in the OOC thread, may be more efficient than trying to working out the details in the game thread.

I would very much like to gently drop Kalira and then rocket down the hallway to punch the unit leader in the face. Make the tanky one the immediate target, and make it a little tough to use a rifle with a woman swinging fists in their way. I might even be able to leap behind them, since I can do vertical leaping; that would permit the ranged or other melee folks to have-at.

Edit: since ship corridors tend to be pretty narrow and cramped, I'd just probably end up leaping onto the unit leader, rather than behind them.

Yeah, if you guys want to talk about your immediate strategy before moving ahead, we can do that.

Sounds good! Assuming we're starting at sort range, Kalira's not going to be much use, as she's only effective at Engaged. But if they happen to close, I can start using the MIND CRUSH!

Depending on the slot layout (will you tell us how many player slots we have in a row, Comrade, or do we find out as they happen?), we might want to have the shoot-y people go first, then have DLMA and Aanu dive into melee.

Based on the check results, we may have up to three slots before the first enemy slot, so that would give us Ze and Kolah making the Ranged attacks, DLMA jumping in to be the tanky beat stick, then Aanu coming in with her saber once the first enemy slot or two has already gone by and we can see how they react. Kalira will obviously take the last slot !

Yeah Kalah is just going to fire down the hall. So it may be logical for the ranged to go first. I forget, is there a penalty for firing into melee? But yeah Kolah has every intent to lay down some fire power into those Stormtroopers.

If you have an ally engaged with your target, your check is upgraded once. And a Despair can be spent to hit your ally!

If you let me go first, I'll throw them around some!

...and make a target of myself, but oh well. >_>

I fire with two greens and two yellows but I'd rather not risk hitting anyone if it can be avoided, even if he's pictured shooting Kalira once or twice ......

So, DLMA throws Kalira toward the Stormtroopers. Then Aanu uses Move to throw Kalira at them again. Then, with Kalira good and engaged with the troopers, Kolah opens fire are recklessly as possible, not even taking the time to aim.

Yes! This is the best plan, I can see nothing that could go wrong!

Kolah payed enough money for his rifle that it had better aim itself. It's custom made after all!!!!!

Who are we waiting on btw? Or should I just start taking pop shots with my eyes closed?

Let me go first? Maybe then they'll have gotten sidetracked by the rest of you by the time it's their turn.

We still need confirmation from Comrade that we have the first initiative slot, but I would be okay with either Aanu or Kolah taking it!

Sorry, guys. I know I said I'd try and post more, but the end of the month is a frenetic circle of hell at this job of mine. Should have a full post up as soon as I can sit down without falling asleep.

It's cool

It's cool

Being this tired is so far from cool.

Well I meant it was cool in regards to we understand RL is draining and you're busy. Though I can relate, I was informed this week I had only a month to write my thesis . So I imagine tired is going to be a 24/7 state for me in the upcoming weeks.

Ooph. Good luck, Kael!
