for your IC, you reverse and send them flying, swap gears and floor it towards the bridge where the truck is blocking the way,

there's an annoying sound behind you in the hummer .... a rapid beeping sound ... it should be familiar to you ... and then "oh yeah, I remember that sound, it's a timer on a ...... Gren.... oh crap .... mommy (IMG:style_emoticons/default/frown.gif) !"

make a damage resist test for the hummer and for yourself, you get the benefit of the vehicle armour added to your own

the hummer is
BODY 12
ARMOUR 8

resist HE Grenade
10P
AP -2

I sense my character is not going to last long hahaa.

btw, did I gain a point of edge back for the crit. success pilot ground craft? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/nyahnyah.gif)

Visual perception: 2 hits

why the hell not, you're gonna be spending it like crazy soon anyways .. one more point ain't gonna hurt (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

you have a sudden urge to get back in the truck and drive until you can close the doors of the new boat,

THEN call in the orbital strike on the old boat !

there's movement on the upper decks !!

Oh boy. I just had a really, really bad thought. Crispy brought the truck over containing the "queen"....meaning any remaining spiders will probably flock to this new boat. Crap!!!

Did the rig not clear the doors of the new boat fully? If not, that's exactly what he'll do - get back in the truck and drive'er further in until he's well inside...(IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Yep.

Bye
Thanee

27d6.hits(5)=8 with added armor and goodies my full damage res. test for the explosive.

Ok, 2P taken as the explosion rocks the hummer off its back axle.

Looking left and right, you see guys levelling weapons at you
The hummer takes 7 damage from its 12 body and the engine cuts out.

Spend time jiggling the key? Or run for your life?

Choices choices (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

"Drake we are leaving!"

suddenly longshot becomes a graceful gymnast and makes a break across the rest of the board walk on full defense, (yay gymnastics) cartwheeling and flipping like a pro. if I need any tests let me know.

okay, show me the money !

Simple action to get out of the vehicle, simple action for sprinting between cover (Roll Sprint for me chum)
the bad guys have done what they need to do, you have about 30 meters to get to the bridge, BUT, that would end your movement out in the open

I leave the choice of destination to you, there's plenty of cover to be had that's on the way .. or make a dash for it and wind up on the bridge.
_______________
you are now all pretty much out in the open, so SHOUTING as comms is acceptable, if anyone feels a burning need to communicate any minor details ...at all ? .. no ? okay then (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Crispy is up,

lets say you almost get out the vehicle and then see a swarm over head, and Shotty running at you in your rear views.
you can swing back into the cab as a free and continue the truck movement into the hold, leaving your actions remaining without another drive test.
-----------------------
followed by those with 3 or more IP's

Longshot and Nova, from your positions you can see the last two guys, but they have taken full cover in or behind broken vehicles, they'll get some hefty armour bonus, but you think you can still find a target

Longshot, less so, as you are moving at full speed so modifiers to your shots for movement.

Well, it's worth a try...

IP3: Aim (+1 DP), Call Shot (-4 DP; +4 DV), Fire on RGG (remaining good guy) #1 -> 4 hits (damage is 13P -4 AP)

IP4: Aim (+1 DP), Call Shot (-4 DP; +4 DV), Fire on RGG (remaining good guy) #2 -> 5 hits (damage is 13P -4 AP)

Well, apparantly I can roll good, too! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Bye
Thanee

GGGHD = good guys getting heads down! (4d6.hits(5)=2, 4d6.hits(5)=3)

Armour + bod 15 Vehicle armour 8 (23d6.hits(5)=6, 23d6.hits(5)=(IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool.gif)
Forgot AP -4

So BOOM! Headshot on fricken both of them .. 9P !! On top of the vehicle damage

I hate snipers (IMG:style_emoticons/default/frown.gif)

Sounds good. So Crispy's got the truck fully parked well inside the hold. He's hearing the shooting going on and he'll be ready to exit the truck and help out next time he gets a chance to act.


Ouch! That was probably a disabled volunteer firefighter for #1, and a kitten & puppy veterinarian for #2!

Have i accidentally put my plot document on dropbox? .. Or are you reading my mind

Good, good. I was a little worried, that these guys were actually really nice. But now that we know of their wretched nature, we can rest peacefully. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Bye
Thanee

okay so they lasted all of one combat round .. I need better good guys !

notes for your (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ic.gif)

Franco has dragged Drago off somewhere, it wasn't a concern until the combat started but now it's concerning.

the spiders are launching gooey strands between the ships, like arachnid pirates preparing to board
Longshot you notice this at the end of your movement when you hit the bridge.

the boats are swaying around thanks to the mass of the truck being thrown about, you're gonna need to be very gymnastic in order to make the crossing without slipping into the inky black abyss that is the sea

Crispy you already saw this before getting the truck to move.

this boat is exactly the same layout as the other, but the lights are on DIM, so there's plenty of shadows and corners for hiding in

there's the other truck parked in here, under a tarpaulin

the only other vehicles are the stolen truck AND your hummer

there's probably other stuff to mention, but on first glance this about covers it.

also the radios have gone silent !

Hehehe - exactly what I was thinking! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Relevant quote. (god am I just quoting movies all the time now? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/frown.gif) )


Burn it!

I think there is a flamethrower somewhere... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Bye
Thanee

oooh well spotted, and I know what you're thinking
You're thinking you could make a mad run for the flamer, on a sinking ship, in the dark, as a deluge of alien arachnids avalanches onto you ...
But being this is a top 20 Global GM , the most powerful GM in the world
and will blow you head clean off, you've gotta ask yourself a question:
"Do I feel lucky?"

Well, do ya, punk? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

YES, yes we are ! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

The flamethrower is for Crispy, I don't need one...

Bye
Thanee

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)


Blasphemy! EVERYONE needs a flamethrower!

the spiders don't seem to be descending at this time.

we have enough of a break to add some (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ic.gif) and do some planning,

I'll sit back and relax while the paranoia sets in and you do the work (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
