Sharlavaka scanned the area, looking for the depressions in the snow to getan idea where the thing was - and then opened fire when he had one.
Seeing where Isis shot with such luck, Thalin tries to use the terrain to create himself an advantage before seeing if he can hit the creature . . ..
James moves out only to the point where he sees his drive. Taking direct control of Six-Pack, he's ready to engage.
On his forearm screen, he surveys the situation.
Sharlavaka scanned the area, looking for the depressions in the snow to getan idea where the thing was - and then opened fire when he had one.
A clean miss for Sharlavaka, but he feels like he's aiming in the right area.
Unfortunately yes, but on a positive note, I can tell you the 37 is more than sufficient for sneak attack.
Perception, spot bogie
Six-pack is having trouble locking on.
Top of Round 2
The beast takes a second swipe at Thalin:
Thalin, Isis, Six-Pack, Sharlavaka, Captain ul-Khedim may act outside. Esh and Joyride can either act where they are or move outside.
While he still really can't see the beast directly, the attempt is makes to end his own life gives Thalin a pretty good idea where it might be, so he tries to hurt it, again.
Grunting, Sharlavaka attempted to locate and fire once more.

Isis tries sneak attack and arc pistol again: for and for electricity. Concealment misses on 1-50: . For her next debilitating trick, she chooses flat-footed.
Six-Pack's head is on a swivel, trying to get a bead on the elusive enemy...
Complete round of misses for the good guys so far this round. Six-pack has the general area and may attack with a 50% miss chance.
Tamrat roars, ”Get eyes on that thing and deal with it!”
The elf considers his options, and for a brief moment tangles with the thought of firing the ship's weapons in the creature's general direction. Given the mental workload he's going through just keeping the damn thing afloat however, he instead keeps it in position nearby.

Six-Pack fires...

The beast takes a second swipe at Thalin:
Party may act.
Isis tries sneak attack and arc pistol again: for and for electricity. Concealment misses on 1-50: . Having done bleed, for her next debilitating trick, she chooses flat-footed.
Perception check from Isis.
Perception
The creature is no longer bleeding.
The creature is no longer bleeding.
If it bleeds, we can kill it. But apparently it regenerates.
"Disable first, burn later." Sharlavaka started hunting once more. Regeneration would be a pain. But mostly for the creature, if he had to keep blowing bits off.
Since I hit last time, can I inflict bleed for just one round before the beast's healing kicks in? It's an extra 6 hp; I like that better than flat-footed.[/ooc]
Six-Pack tries to discern the most likely position of the enemy.
Six-Pack tries to discern the most likely position of the enemy.
You still have the general vicinity from before. You do not believe the creature has moved significantly since your last shot.
Six-Pack calculates and shoots...
20 is not a hit, unfortunately.
Thalin?
Attacking on Thalin's behalf:
Trick w/ Stealth:
Plasma Ring vs FF:
Add Off-Target if hits.
50 + misses:
Thalin hits for 6 damage (trick attack failed).
Any action for Esh at this point, or should I move on to round 4?
Tamrat points at Esh and says, ”You, hop to it. We’ve got a beast to deal with.”

Assuming he knows exactly what the captain is implying, The elf brings the ship within range of Tamrat to board proper.
As the ship lowers itself, the boarding ramp opens to reveal Otis hanging on to the support strut, holding out his hand.
"C'mon, Cap'n! Better get you safe until we can figure out what's going on. Besides, I obviously can't fly this thing worth a darn!
Moments later, Esh senses the Captain taking the piloting controls, and can feel free to release his remote and go assist his teammates in their battle.
Top of Round 4
The creature attacks Thalin yet again.
Party may act.
With the mental strain of flying an entire ship with his mind over and dealt with, The elf makes his way outside to battle proper.
That basically keeps it Creature, followed by party. I'm not going to require everyone post in order when you're all in one clump like that, so the entire party can act for round 4, as of now.
A series of clicks and hisses than were probably too obscene for most translation programs to cope with echoed from Sharlavaka, as he tried once again to shoot the damned thing.
Sharlavaka manages to graze the creature, hitting for minimal damage.
Rest of party may act.
Isis tries arc pistol and sneak attack again: for electricity and for . Concealment misses on 1-50: . Bleed again for her debilitating trick.
Seeing his companions fetter about and trying and failing to hit wherever the creature is, repeatedly, the Elf decides on a more simple tactic.
Not sure where it is? Just get the whole area around it.
The creature makes his save, but Esh's attack as been about as effective as anyone else's (save one really good shot by Isis).
James makes his way nearer to the group... not wanting to get in the way. Distance was better, like a vid game map.
Six Pack misses again, unfortunately. However, just as suddenly as it started, the battle seems to be over. The creature has seemingly lost its taste for this battle, too many guns against it. Seconds turn into minutes, but the only sounds are the ship's thrusters and the howling, scouring wind.
Fort Saving Throws for everyone outside.
