4 Light and 10 Dark Side

Alright @Rabobankrider I spend a destiny to upgrade the Squads check if and only if they target Slugger.

Haha, @Shlambate , I feel like fate wants me to spend a destiny point as well to upgrade their attack

Also @Kymrel , I think the lightsaber need 2 advantage to make a critical hit, not 1.

Remember all force users get one free no check required mod on their saber, he chose to go for reduced critical.

Ah ok, that explains that then.

Bad luck there @Shlambate , fate was not with you there. @Sterf you're welcome to take your turn now.

You forget the setbacks that the Supressing fire gave them if I'm not mistaken.

Ah you are right, I'll add the dice in now.

Ok @Shlambate , I added the setback, but unfortunately it was only 1 failure, so it's still a hit.

Yeah unless there is one more setback in there from somewhere else I think Slugger is down for the rest the encounter.

So, would it be down from the encounter or down from the exercise as a whole?

Exercise as a whole I guess, but that could keep me out of the game for a long while.

This is the problem with using strain rather than wounds. Well, one of two. Medicine checks can't restore wounds, and neither can stimpacks. Not that we have any. So getting a PC up to keep him in the game is a problem.

Incidentally, the second problem is that strain is a currency in combat, used to fuel talents and take extra maneuvers. By using strain rather than wounds we lose the use of that currency, or at least have to conserve it more than usual. I'm just glad I don't have reflect, since that would, in essence, be useless unless I had multiple ranks. With one ranks I could spend 3 strain to avoid taking 3 strain

Shooting Squad 1 : 2eA+1eP+2eD+1eB 0 successes, 1 advantage, 1 Triumph

Any interesting ideas for the triumph? Otherwise an upgrade for the next check.

We are not having too much luck mowing them down, that's for sure. And now that they have called for backup our plan is done for, unfortunately.

But if we think we're not having luck shooting the enemy, spare a thought for a friend who tried to shoot a bug that was about to eat another PC. Rolled just last night. I'll put it in spoilers so as not to confuse anyone who might think this roll is from our game. But really, I didn't think this was possible.

Attacking the Nearer Beastie : 1eP+3eA+4eB+1eD 0 successes, 2 advantage

Yeah, for future combat sessions we'll use wounds and just treat them a s non-lethal shots or something.

@Sterf , if you wasn't you could spend that triumph to drag @Shlambate out of the firing line, save him from being shot in this specific case? As he's gone down because I made the mistake of using strain for this, I'd be ok with you saving him in a weakened state. Or you can use to to just slaughter what's left of te squad.

@Rabobankrider could permit you to participate as a member of Acklay, to keep you involved, perhaps? Or the opposition, even?

That's an interesting concept. @Shlambate if you're interested in that I can see that being feasable.

Let's see what @Sterf does Rez Slugger or take out goons. If not the Rez I guess I can be demoted to a mook.

Drag Slugger out of the way or have another section of the vent drop on a squad, knocking them out?

I'll save Slugger of course. Never leave a man behind.

By the way, I forgot to use the upgrade from Acklay Squad so whoever is next feel free to take it.

@Rabobankrider does this mean Slugger is back in or is he still out of the fight?

Okay okay I'm here! Sorry I was writing essays for the past week. Seeing all the notifications hurt cause I knew if i responded I would get sucked in and never get my essays done.

Heres the stealth not that it matters anymore.

Stealthy stuffs : 3eA+3eD 3 failures, 2 advantage

Could I use the advantages to heal strain?

Here's the initiative.

Cool Initiative : 2eA 2 successes, 2 advantage

Okay ready to go

Yayifications! Looks like you're now after @Kymrel . Dunno if @Rabobankrider would like for you to take the turn now or wait for @SHADOWGUARD CHAMPION first.
