GM did a boo-boo. Those bangers are double tapping burst fire, that means a -3 ON TOP OF the -2 for the first burst, not instead of. So all of the second bursts get dodged, you are only dealing with 1 hit, for 8P.

Unless and until Torley and Starlet check the van, which takes some more fire from the other Area Boys, O'Conner is the only one left with actions.

Starlet has 2 IP this combat from the improved reflexes spell. So I'm waiting on faro to take their 2nd IP before I take Con's 3rd and 4th IP.

She said she was staying close to the buildings, so she wouldn't be able to interact with the Area Boys until she is able to move again anyway.

You will need to take another full turn's movement to go to the van, and you will be exposed to fire doing so. Alternatively, you can stay under cover and get to where you can see behind the van, but that is also a full turn's movement. That also applies to Torley. Your entire movement this turn was catching up to O'Conner.

Torley takes his next single IP to get to behind the car, choosing Full Defence to avoid perforations.
Game mechanics question: A) Can a short phrase be spoken while ducking for cover as per above? B) if A is true, then can the short phrase be a Command via Torley's adept power? |

Is Lil' Homie actually ahead of O'Connor in the initiative order, or is that GM caveat to smoothing out pbp?

A grateful nod to you, Crossbow, for not killing off Torley because of my hasty, ill-worded post above regarding his action. I'll be more careful in future. |

No worries, you simply couldn't cover the distance onto the map and behind the car. It had very little to do Torley and more to do with giving Bullet Storm some kind of "reward" for getting so far ahead.

Since Torley and Starlet are both going for the car on Full Defense, I will need the rolls from you. Full Defense is Dodge+Dodge+Reaction.

Do I need to roll full defense if I'm invisible? I just used this trick because I don't have dodge, so I hope not.

Invisible won't help if they are doing 'spray and pray'. Roll the defense.

I'll be on holiday from tomorrow until next saturday. I'll normally have internet access (the hotel should have Wifi), but I might be slower to respond

Torley was already in Full Defense when he got stuck by the Stick-and-Shock, so you keep that Edge. The Body-Willpower roll was a test you needed 3 successes to beat. You did not, so will be doing the Kicking Chicken for the next 3 Combat turns. You will still see the white blur while your pupils are rolled up in their sockets, so you can order it to stop if so so choose. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Alright, I was just totally confused. So, what did actually happen to him?

No, no. That's why I said "at his next chance." All moot anyway, because he is curled.up in a ball. I think. Or something. |
