Doctor Madd! slips on a patch of Amoeba's goop, putting him out of reach of the goo-man's attack!
"Hahahahaha! You will never defeat Doctor Madd!!!!!"
1d20 + 6 ⇒ (19) + 6 = 25
Wow these dice really DO hate you.
Confirm: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 13
But not that much. =)
Amoeba Toughness: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (9) + 6 = 15
Okay maybe they DO.
Amoeba is knocked unconscious by Doctor Madd's blow!
SATURDAY MORNING!
Rynjin |
I should know better by now than to use enemies with Improved Critical. At least he's not AS bad as Gortus. Round 1: OHKO on Cyrdic. Round 2: DECAPITATIOOOOOOON! on Slick. Round 3: "Disarms" Jrahk. I imagine he could have kept going like that until your entire crew was dead.
SATURDAY MORNING |
SATURDAY MORNING huffs and scowls at Madd. "Now that's no way for a patient of mine to act! Calm down right now buster, or you won't get a sticker at the end!
SATURDAY MORNING turns to the collapsed puddle of goo and wags his finger at him. "And you should know better than to interrupt a procedure, nurse! You're lucky you're pretty, or else I wouldn't keep you around!"
"Now, Mr. Madd, it's time for your general anesthesia!"
SATURDAY MORNING leaves the saw running and hangs it in the air, along with his lab coat. He scoops up the chair and attempts to smack Madd over the head with it.
Unarmed Attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (17) + 5 = 22
Since I'm using an improvised weapon, I get to use my Close Combat: Unarmed bonus while attacking with this chair.
Rynjin |
I think one final thing you guys need to add to your quick bars is your Damage Rank. In SatAm's case it looks like 18 (15+2 Strength+1 Improvised Weapon).
Madd Fort: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (17) + 5 = 22
Madd! shrugs off Saturday's attack like it wasn't even made, chair splintering on his tough hide.
Mush Man continues trying to latch onto Dmitri.
1d20 + 5 ⇒ (13) + 5 = 18
Just barely failing to do so!
Cogito!
Doctor Cogito |
Cogito takes control of it.
"Dimitri, can you heal Amoeba?"
Dmitri Rasputin Krenshaff |
I have a healing shroud, actually. What action would it be to teleport over and set it on Amoeba?
Rynjin |
I have a healing shroud, actually. What action would it be to teleport over and set it on Amoeba?
I'd say a Move to place it, which means if it's a Standard for you to teleport, then go for it.
Doctor Cogito |
Cogito sics his newest pet on Jacko.
SATURDAY MORNING |
Wait, are the civilians still being lowered into the vat of whatever?
Rynjin |
The civvies are hanging out. These guys were lowering them, but they've stopped a few inches above the stuff.
Amoeba (34)
Dmitri (32)
Doctor Madd! (32)
SATURDAY MORNING (16)
Mush (16)
Doctor Cogito (15)
Jacko attacks 1d3 ⇒ 3 SATURDAY MORNING!
1d20 + 12 ⇒ (20) + 12 = 32
Confirm: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (11) + 12 = 23
HOLY DICK
SatAm Toughness: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (8) + 7 = 15
Fort: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (16) + 4 = 20
SATURDAY is ROCKED by a bolt of radiation from Jacko, staggered by the glowing man's powers.
Three degree failure, Staggered + -3 to further Toughness checks. Dmitri.
Dmitri Rasputin Krenshaff |
Dmitri fires a last-ditch polymorph attempt at Madd, before teleporting to Amoeba. Teleport is a move.
1d20 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 14
Oh for goodness' sakes.
Dmitri Rasputin Krenshaff |
Well, it's a move to put it on there, so I have to move one turn and place it the next.
Rynjin |
Well, just like Pathfinder, you can trade a Standard for an extra Move. So your options are: Wait until next round to Teleport, then put it on Amoeba, or teleport up there now, and get whacked by Madd, who goes next.
_Amoeba_ |
Don't do it, Dual-remember what happened with the last critfisher we fought. REMEMBER SLICK AND HOW HE GOT BRUTALLY DECAPITATED IN A HILARIOUS YET KINDA SAD WAY.
Dmitri Rasputin Krenshaff |
Yeah. I'll do it next round.
Rynjin |
Madd tries to murder SatAm instead!
1d20 + 6 ⇒ (13) + 6 = 19
SatAm Toughness: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (14) + 7 = 21
SatAm manages to take the blow on the chair leg he's holding, softening it considerably!
Whoops. Forgot the -3 from that last bolt from jacko.
SATURDAY MORNING! is knocked unconscious by a crushing blow from Doctor Madd!
Mush squishes toward Madd.
Cogito.
Doctor Cogito |
Cogito assesses Jacko, then tries to control him.
Doctor Cogito |
16
Doctor Cogito |
Ah, sorry. He is now Dazed.
Rynjin |
Jacko stumbles, but manages to aim his attack at Cogito.
1d20 + 12 ⇒ (15) + 12 = 27
Cogito Toughness: 1d20 ⇒ 19
Cogito is knocked off his feet by the blast, chest smoking.
If it makes anyone feel better I've gotten a MUCH better feel for the mechanics of the game with this fight and encounter balance will probably be a bit smoother from here on out.
Dmitri is up.
Dmitri Rasputin Krenshaff |
That is probably irrelevant, as there will not be fights or encounters from here on out, judging by the way things are going.
Dmitri transmutes as much material as possible into Cobalt-60, killing everything within a few dozen miles.
I'm honestly not sure what to do here. Do we just fall back? If cogito had teleported the civis...
Dmitri Rasputin Krenshaff |
death in the family?
Dmitri teleports over to Cogito, and sets one of the healing shrouds on the wizard.
Dmitri Rasputin Krenshaff |
Magic, obviously.
It removes a -1 toughness penalty 4 out of every 5 rounds.
Dmitri Rasputin Krenshaff |
Exactly.
Rynjin |
Just making sure you didn't mean "It has a 20% chance of working" once every 5 rounds or some such.
Madd! leaves SatAm and Amoeba where they lay, and LEAPS from the balcony down next to Cogito and Dmitri.
He swing a claw at Dmitri.
1d20 + 6 ⇒ (11) + 6 = 17
But misses, thrown off balance by his jump.
Rynjin |
Amoeba (34)
Dmitri (32)
Doctor Madd! (32)
SATURDAY MORNING (16)
Mush (16)
Doctor Cogito (15)
Cogito's turn, btw.
Edit: Wait, I forgot someone.
Mush tries to grab Madd.
1d20 + 5 ⇒ (20) + 5 = 25
Confirm?: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (10) + 5 = 15
Madd Toughness: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (10) + 5 = 15
Mush catches DOCTOR MADD! by surprise injuring him!
Edit: ALSO, hold up hold up hold up
I've been doing damage wrong, shit. OKAY.
You are only knocked unconscious if yo are Staggered AND THEN fail another Toughness check by three degrees. MEANING, Amoeba is awake and Staggered, as-is SATURDAY MORNING.
So, Amoeba and SatAm have actions pending, and Cogito was never knocked out either, he is also Staggered. I am so very sorry about that. I was wondering why Toughness checks were so damn hard if it was simply a matter of progressing along a track like that.
SATURDAY MORNING |
Sorry for not chipping in; I've been away from my computer for a few days. I'll be back tomorrow. My iPod can't handle this site.
Doctor Cogito |
Cogito teleports away from Madd.
SATURDAY MORNING |
SATURDAY MORNING takes this opening to recover and hobbles over to the vat/civvies. He gives them a weak salute and throws another large Portable Hole into the vat, which quickly sinks to the bottom. This hole is still connected to the one outside of the lab- on the other side of the forcefield.
_Amoeba_ |
Amoeba somehow recovers from being unconscious and tries to smack Madd again before he gets away.
Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (19) + 7 = 26
Confirm?: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (3) + 7 = 10
Ok, so I've got STR 6, Damage 4, and I believe he's gotta make a DC 25 toughness check, is that right?
