Regardless you put a smoking hole through Cyberguy's torso and he falls to the ground dead. ( :( I never even had a chance to name him)

May I suggest Metal Head McDeadface?

well there's no point now. I mean, when would a villain who you thought was dead ever come back in, a convoluted yet non original way, for a star wars story?

Cough Darth Maul, Cough Cough

I mean what's Metal Head McDeadface gonna do? Use the force to keep his internal organs from spilling out (after having fallen down a mile long shaft) while also using it to build a set of spider like prosthetic legs from garbage? Then he'll mysteriously get transported from the bottom of the mile long shaft to another planet full of garbage where he also uses the force to keep himself from succumbing to infections on the garbage planet?

I can just imagine the conversation between the cleaning droids that work the bottom of the shaft.

J4N-1T0R: Beep Boob This garbage is a still living sentient. What should J4N-1T0R do?

G4R-8AG3: G4R-8AG3 has found an additional portion of the sentient however this portion does not live. J4N-1T0R, what is the mass of the portion you are inspecting?

J4N-1T0R: The mass of this portion is 42.3 kilograms and decreasing as fluids leak from it.

G4R-8AG3: The mass of this portion is 44.8 kilograms. Conclusion. The sentient is "Mostly" dead. Proceed with standard disposal protocol .

Good point, there is no way Star Wars would ever do something that crazy...

Forgotten boost. forgotten boost : 1eB 1 success, 1 advantage b-s-a.png

I guess he's one more dead. :D Oh, and for them being stunned for a second, Khaine yells out "Drop your weapons and surrender!"

For my new advantage, how about I notice the elevator override controls on the receptionists desk? So if someone could hit that, or disable it the turbolift going below will be locked.

Well It wont be as simple as you put it but sure for a single advantage you can "Notice something" so I'll accept that you see the cable that connects the turbolift to a console station on the receptionist desk.

NPC - Casea Aims, Aims, shoots and misses

PC - Khaine Holsters Draws Shoots and kills Cyberguy

NPC - Minion group of Guards

Rather than responding to Khaine's suggestion the guards that had spread around the room move toward the area below Khaine. As they do they unfurl long crackling electro-whips. When they are at short range they lash up at him.

Guards whipping Khaine : 4eP+2eD 4 successes, 1 threat

Despite their best efforts they fail to wrap any of the whips around Khaine or his extremities. However the lashing electricity courses through him and inflicts 9 points of Stun Damage.

They do overextend themselves and take a point of strain, meaning damage.

Wrong dice.

Dayum things are really moving!! I've got my new phone up and going now so I should be able to keep up with things as they happen once more XD

Ouchies, that hurt. Does that take into account my soak of 3?

Hmm, sounds like they're in the perfect place for a grenade. :rolleyes:

I have a purpose!

I can go next. I'll grab a grenade, move out to the catwalks and toss it down

Yes you can apply soak. 6 strain goes through

By all means. That's two maneuvers and a ranged light attack roll. After grabbing one you identify it as a stun grenade.

3eA+2eD?

Shouldn't you be at 8 strain at least?

short range so 1eD (they moved to directly below the ledge)

3eA+1eD Gotcha, any boost for High ground?

Ooo grenades, I've got some of those too, maybe I should start handing them out while giving a rousing speech or something XD

Btw, next xp reward, im looking forward to improving my rhetoric so that I can give you all boosts as well

Just now, Mattimeo84 said:

Sure that makes sense, but so does upgrading the difficulty because I am flipping a Destiny point.

:D :D :D :D :D :ph34r: :ph34r: :ph34r: :ph34r:

3eA+1eB+1eC

And don't forget to take your 2 strain. (I have a feeling it might matter)

That could have been bad...

Fire in the Hole! : 3eA+1eB+1eC 1 success

@Ahrimon still owes one first anyway and then I need to get one in for the guards.

Anyway your grenade drops but a quickly called " Grenade " precedes the detonation. When you look down you see that most of the guards are behind cover. One seems to have taken a greater hit but is still standing.

You are correct. And now I need to go back and review my first turn in this combat. I may be at 10.

Edit: I am at 10. I think I'd better spend some advantage on reducing strain or I'm going to be out of the fight soon.

I'll get my IC up as soon as I can.

I'm always so scared of shooting into melee. I'll ready my rifle (maneuver) , spend a maneuver to aim (2 strain) and fire at the badguy. GGGY (R-Heavy) +B (from Brin) vs RP (difficulty 1, upgraded twice).

Blasting the guard : 3eA+1eP+1eB+1eC+1eD 3 successes, 1 advantage
a-a.png a-s-s.png a-s.png p-s-s.png b--.png c-f.png d-f.png

13 14 Damage ( with Pierce 2) and if he's still standing he's staggered by the blast and suffers a setback. If he's dead, I'll spend the advantage on less of a chance for someone to hear us.

Edit: LOL, I forgot my aim boost. forgotten boost : 1eB 1 success
b-s.png

Yeah you took two strain there too.

Edit . Beat me to it.

Edited by Ryoden

I'm going to have to get better at keeping my sheet up to date. I keep forgetting to add those two strain from the extra maneuvers.
