When Nova's turn comes up, she will return to her body (which is a complex action, so pretty much all she can do), and let the others know that the spirit is taken care of.

The plant spirit will materialize next to her (also complex), in order to do his job and protect her and her allies (thereby lowering his IP to 2, forfeiting the third turn).
Crispy will also enjoy Counterspelling from the spirit.

Nova returns to her body and relays the info to the team.

I'll use my second simple action of the first pass to take aim at the front wheel of the SUV.


Roll some dice smile.gif

I think he is literally taking aim. So, no dice, yet. wink.gif

OTOH, of course, it is Hammer's 2nd turn now. So, some dice rolling might ensue.

I need to know how you interpret a called shot at a vehicle wheel ?
- Full armour
or
a -4 or more etc.

still going to do it, just need the modifier smile.gif

this will be short (3 round) bursts from the Ares Alpha (Recoil is fully compensated) with Explosive rounds.

if that fails/works it will be followed up by the same again at the same wheel, if it blows out, then it'll be at the passenger side windscreen.

I'm away from my characters and books (my phone failed and dropbox has locked me out lol )

feel free to move on till I can post tonight

I believe that is what Dak means, since it is now Hammer's turn in IP2.

I can re-roll, or 4 Hits dropping the last 4 dice rolls

here's the second shot , called again to same tyre or to the windscreen

So, opposition attacks (and defense against) have been dealt with and it's time for my held action, right?

Edit:
black line: moving; red: shooting

Problem with this plan is: walking, Brian can't make the movement in one IP and running, he'll miss with grenades.

So: I want him to run (not sprint) for 25/2 meters, which should get him there and then shoot someone twice with plain old assault rifle rounds.

move: as black line
free: perception to pick a willing target
simple: shoot him
simple: shoot him again

Rolling:
Perception: Intuition 4 + Perception 4 + TacNet 2 - Distracted 2 = 8 dice => [5,3,6,4,6,3,1,3] = (3) Guess I'll see a bit of one of the guys.
Shooting once: Agility 5 + Automatics 4 + Spec: Assault Rifles 2 + Smartlink 2 + TacNet 2 - Attacker Running 2 - Medium Range 1 - Target has good cover 4 = 8 dice => [1,2,3,4,3,3,4,4] = (0) A clean miss!
And twice: 8 dice - 0 (RC 4 >= recoil 1) => [6,4,2,5,1,1,2,1] = (2) Hmm, that might even hit.

Edit 2:

Areas Alpha: base DV 6P, -1 AP

Hey no problem, it's easy to overlook something with that many people throwing actions and banter around. And naked elf stripper ninjas.
Btw, make that 25/3 as currently there are 3 IPs and movement gets split between all of them, not just those of the acting character.
Doesn'tchange anything for this action phase - Brian can shoot at the guy west of the truck's south end anyway.

We're waiting on response from Dak on the actions people have already posted, though work has been super busy for him this week.

If Hammer's shooting out the SUV's tire and windshield is successful and causes a crash, Khote will be doing something to the guys coming from the main gate. If it's not, he's going to be shooting out two more tires and seeing if that will cause a crash.

Lol. It is actually surprisingly easy to stalk me. In a quick search I was able to find my full contact information in just 3 easy steps. Maybe I need to start using different usernames and profile pictures on different services. Hmmmm....
Actually with my first name and my less generic username that I use everywhere else because somebody else got the Slacker name before me, I am the very first result on a google search.

Lol. He has more reason to try to bribe me since he's in both my forum game and my IRL game (though he's so busy this week that he can't make it to that game this weekend).

He probably also has more reason to take revenge on Khote for the things I do to his characters in those games. lol

For myself, being at my job keeps me posting more just because i'm such a slacker. At home, I do read new posts. But generally I don't spend all that much time sitting in front of my computer.

Yeah, I think it's rapidly becoming something we can't just sit and watch from afar anymore.

I don't think I could visit - part of it for me would be the knowledge that my money was going to fund such a horrible government. Also I've read accounts of other foreign visitors, the amount of stuff you have to listen to about how great the Dear Leader(s) are, bring flowers to their grave, etc...I don't think I could do it, I'm too stubborn.

I remember a news story outta NK one time, where the Dear Leader got like 5 holes-in-one and shot like 30 under par, although he'd never played golf before in his life. It's just...beyond laughable?

Met some NK university recruiters a few years ago here in Beijing. Those guys were seriously creepy.
