[SFS] Kludde In Space (Inactive)

Game Master Kludde

Iseph manages to pull of a superior maneuver, and flies the Loreseeker around the heavier ship, putting it right on its tail. Mnamae and Obozaya open fire on the exposed rear of the ship, and the damaged guns of the enemy offer no response. Mnamae manages to hit the starboard guns, which sparkle with energy.

More crit: 1d100 ⇒ 37
1d3 ⇒ 3

Not sure if I got the math on the shield right. I think you redistribute so that the back side is 10 down?

Mnamae-6 directs the light laser cannons again at the Endless Threnody.

Not sure if I got the math on the shield right. I think you redistribute so that the back side is 10 down?

Shar said that she was shifting half of port and aft shields to front, so I think it should be port (5) and aft (5). However, RAW, you can only shift shields from one quadrant to another, not from two, per Balance action so not quite sure also.

"Maybe try fixing the shields instead of distributing the energy around?

I think you can just fix shields with a engeneering; divert power check

"Continue firing at will, you got this"

Encourage a gunner: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8

Savoy says as he gives out a long yawn which doesn't seem inspiring at all

"In a moment, I'm busy." Shar says completing her re-balance of the shields.

pilot check: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (15) + 8 = 23

The battle is turning into something of a dogfight, with the Loreseeker hot on the tail of the Threnody. It looks like the enemy pilot is up to something.

Iseph gets to move first - how do you want to move?

You've taken 10 damage to shields, so total should add up to 30. The divert action can restore 7 power

I'm happy precisely where I am.

The Threnody burns forward, with the engines seemingly holding up well enough to perform a reverse half-loop. Hanging up-side down(at least, as seen from the Loreseeker), the guns come to life, blasting into the shield of the Loreseeker. The starfinder vessel shakes heavily as the hull is hit.

Guns: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (9) + 6 = 154d8 ⇒ (6, 3, 3, 5) = 17

Mnamae returns fire, but shoots wide of his target.

Can I have an action for Obozaya?

No clue on where Obozaya is..but I suggest he'd just shoot his gun at the enemy ship

Stand in dice rolling: 1d20 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 3 + 1 = 18
Damage if hit: 4d4 ⇒ (2, 4, 2, 3) = 11

Obozaya returns the fire, and the energy weapon rips through the Threnody's hull.

"Someone get our shields back on-line..or turn the ship so that they can only hit our protected flank"

Diplomacy to aid on engineering check: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (15) + 6 = 21

Mnamae-6 Agains waits for the right opportunity to fire his guns when the Threnody flies by for a good shot.

Hmm, none of us have been using the two +1 bonus from the ships computers...

In gunnery phase Obozaya takes another shot.

Turret Gun: 1d20 + 1 + 3 ⇒ (18) + 1 + 3 = 22 Damage: 4d4 ⇒ (1, 1, 4, 4) = 10

Shar swaps to engineering and tries restoring shields, 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (13) + 7 = 20

"That was a hard hit. Wanna try avoiding their firing arcs? I'd appreciate it." in a calmly sarcastic, yet playful tone.

The captain makes sure Shar gets the shields back up. Adds 7, in the config 4/1/1/1

Mnamae and Ietsuna prepare to fire

Piloting: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (20) + 8 = 28 Iseph moves first if he can't beat that check

If the Captain could inspire me, I would appreciate it ;-)

Seems a bit metagamey to do it after knowing the roll..but that's what you get in pbp

"Pilot, do your thing."

Assist on pilot: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (17) + 6 = 23

Not only that, but Savoy already acted, so I'm going to stick with that one. Iseph gets to move first.

Not only that, but Savoy already acted, so I'm going to stick with that one. Iseph gets to move first.

Good point, I forgot I already did something this round

I elect not to move, then, since it won't make much difference to final positioning.

Iseph fails to get the Loreseeker into a better position, and another round of salvoes is exchanged. Only Ietsuna manages a hit, and blasts the targeting nodule of the port guns to smithereens. The guns of the Eoxian vessel spring to life, but blast well clear of the bow.

Crit: 1d100 ⇒ 56
Which gun, TBPAS: 1d5 ⇒ 3

Laser Cannon: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8

Zefram tries to get into a better position.

Piloting: 1d20 + 10 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 10 + 1 = 16.

Mnamae-6 thanks Triune for the bad aim of the Threnody. He scans through the targeting system and fires once again.

Obozaya eases back on the trigger yet again, firing thr turret gun.

Turret Gun: 1d20 + 1 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 1 + 3 = 8 Damage: 4d4 ⇒ (2, 3, 1, 4) = 10

Shar continues restoring shields, 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (12) + 7 = 19

"Good hit. I say we keep doing that." Shar says smiling.

"I agree. shields are looking good for now right? Fire at will"

Diplomacy to encourage a gunner: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (13) + 6 = 19

Piloting: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (15) + 8 = 23

Shar pumps more power to the shields as the gunner prepare to fire. Iseph tries to move the ship, but the Eoxian pilot is good, damn good.

Well, again, there is no real point moving, so I won't try.

Iseph is content to take a pummeling head-on, with the enemy ship moving oddly, just hovering in place and firing turning jet randomly. All the easier to hit for Mnamae and Obo, who both score massive hits on the forward weapons array.

Crit: 1d100 ⇒ 461d3 ⇒ 2

Piloting: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7
Fire: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (16) + 6 = 224d8 ⇒ (4, 2, 6, 8) = 20
Crit: 1d100 ⇒ 4

A huge blast of laser energy hits the bridge, stripping the Loreseeker's shields clean. The blast rocks the deck, and smoke fills the area as a siren starts blaring WARNING! FIRE IN LIFE SUPPORT SYSTEMS! ALL NON-ESSENTIAL FUNCTIONS SUSPENDED

Piloting: 1d20 + 10 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 10 + 1 = 29.

"We need to get our shields back...and life support, maybe life support first. It sounds critical!"

Encourage engineering: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 13

"Negative. Even if life support should fail, our armor should sustain us for an hour or two. Shields are more critical at this stage," Mnamae-6 intones over the broadcast system.

Once again, he sights his targeting system, and fires once the conditions are ideal.

For the two +1 bonuses from the computer, can we just fix who is using it permanently? Say the pilot and main gunner?

Pilot: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (13) + 6 = 19
Pilot Stunt check: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (19) + 6 = 25

Iseph finally manages to get an edge on the enemy vessel, which backs up slowly.

I hope this does it

Turret Gun: 1d20 + 1 + 3 ⇒ (18) + 1 + 3 = 22 Damage: 4d4 ⇒ (2, 3, 2, 4) = 11

Iseph moves around behind the other ship.

Shar continues to restore the shields. "Can we just board them? I think I want their guns on our ship."

1d20 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 12

"Give me a moment, some of the relays need to be reset."

Iseph manages to get on the tail of the lumbering ship, which allows Ietsuna to bring a good shot to bear. Shar is having a hard time restoring the failing shields.

Crit: 1d100 ⇒ 431d3 ⇒ 2

"Take your time, but please reset those relays at the earliest convenient possibility please"

Diplomacy to assist engineering: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11

Leaving the repair of the ship to the rest of his crew, Mnamae-6 continues firing his weapons at the Threnody.

Iseph continues to try and avoid the other ship.

Piloting: 1d20 + 10 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 10 + 1 = 17.

Pilot: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (12) + 8 = 20

Iseph tries to get on the tail of the failing ship, but still finds his match with the enemy pilot. Iseph moves first

1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8

Shar scrunches her face in consternation, "I'm starting to dislike this uncooperative piece of space debris."

Going to assume Iseph holds position

Obozaya focuses his turrest gun, while the Eoxian ship tries to bring in a broadside, which slams into the port shield.

Guns: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (10) + 6 = 162d4 ⇒ (2, 4) = 6

Mnamae returns fire with the port gun, and crackles of energy start to appear on the enemy ship's hull. Looks like this ship wasn't built to last.

"Fine..we'll deal with the enemy first..then we'll start thinking about repairs"

"Fire at will"

Diplomacy for an assist on the next gunner: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (13) + 6 = 19

Mnamae-6 with a patience that only androids can muster continues aligning the weapon targeting systems and firing away at the Threnody.

Piloting: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (18) + 6 = 24

The Threnody, venting steam and shedding debris, tries to turn around one last time
