Max 116y partial cover (+2 defense)
Adrik 100y no cover
Rankev 150y partial cover (+2 defense)
Liam 150y full cover (+4 defense)

Rankev lies in a bloody mess bleeding out of the new orifice created for him.

Adrik 18, Liam 12, Max 11, Sniper 11, Rankev 8

running+strength: 8d6 ⇒ (5, 2, 3, 1, 3, 2, 6, 6) = 28 - 3 hits
stealth-2 dice for running: 16d6 ⇒ (6, 5, 1, 1, 1, 1, 5, 4, 4, 6, 6, 6, 6, 4, 4, 4) = 64 - 7 hits!
perception-2 dice for running: 8d6 ⇒ (1, 4, 6, 4, 2, 5, 1, 1) = 24 - 2 hits

repeat of last action, just trying to get closer while ending in cover and avoiding traps.

"Dreck!"

Liam will move to Rankev and attempt heal him.

Heal Force 5 (Magic + sorcery - wounds - Background): 9d6 ⇒ (5, 3, 1, 4, 5, 2, 5, 4, 3) = 32 3 Hits

Drain F-4: 7d6 ⇒ (3, 1, 4, 5, 1, 3, 5) = 22

Well, frag my hoop, I'm stable. =)

Max 97y full cover (+2 defense)
Adrik 100y no cover
Rankev 150y partial cover (+2 defense)
Liam 150y full cover (+4 defense)

The sniper will set his sights on Adrick
17d6 ⇒ (2, 4, 6, 2, 3, 5, 6, 3, 6, 1, 5, 6, 3, 5, 6, 6, 4) = 73 =9 hits reduced to 8

Rankev 8, Adrik 8, Liam 2, Max 1, Sniper 1

Armor(12) + body (5): 17d6 ⇒ (4, 2, 3, 5, 3, 5, 2, 2, 4, 6, 4, 5, 5, 3, 4, 4, 5) = 66 = 6 sucesses

2 hits

Adrik I needed your dodge first.
Then your damage will be 12+ my net hits to be soaked by your armor -4 + body

oops..sorry

Dodge: Reaction(7)+Intuition(4)11d6 ⇒ (5, 4, 6, 5, 4, 1, 3, 3, 3, 4, 2) = 40 = 3 sucesses

resist 17P, with armor and body, -4 penalty

Armor (12)+ Body(5) -4: 13d6 ⇒ (2, 6, 4, 5, 4, 2, 1, 1, 6, 6, 1, 3, 6) = 47 = 5 Successes
Using Edge to re-roll: 8d6 ⇒ (3, 2, 4, 3, 4, 1, 5, 4) = 26 = 1 successes

rankev, max, liam...

My Phys damage condition is full, so, from what I can infer (I've looked everywhere in the rule book, and I can't find it, but the internetz seem to agree on this) is that I'm unconscious. If this is not so, great, I'll do stuff. Otherwise I'm just happy I'm not taking constant damage and I'm waiting for the two heavy hitters to clean this sniper up and...okay, I don't know what we're gonna do. ^_^ I'm fine having them try to finish the other mission. I just can't promise that my unconscious not-yet-corpse is gonna assist much. =)

(Also, um, the other guy was my ride. Can we NPC him for the drive out of here? =)

that's fine, him driving.

I don't want this to be a tpk, so I am going to give you the benefit of the doubt since its so vague and say youre up. I do hope you can get something to go you're way.

from 97 yds to...
running+strength: 8d6 ⇒ (2, 3, 2, 6, 5, 1, 4, 4) = 27 - 2 hits
stealth-2 dice for running: 16d6 ⇒ (6, 1, 3, 2, 3, 1, 4, 3, 5, 2, 2, 1, 2, 2, 6, 2) = 45 - 3 hits
perception-2 dice for running: 8d6 ⇒ (2, 6, 3, 2, 6, 1, 6, 2) = 28 - 3 hits

repeat of last action, just trying to get closer while ending in cover and avoiding traps.

With the damage taken, I think my initiative is lowered so I don't have another action.
Even if there is one, Bad Wolf is just going to stay very VERY low for now.

Max 79y full cover (+4 defense)
Adrik 100y no cover
Rankev 150y partial cover (+2 defense)
Liam 150y full cover (+4 defense)

Power groans and weaves a bit. He seems to be functional, but he has a lot less blood than he used to, and everything is...a purple shade of hazy.

He squints, and can still make out the gesticulating form of the sniper. His eyes dart down quick and see the two other runners darting forth, but despairs that they are equipped enough to take him down before he gets pinged...again, for the last time.

Power digs deep within him and gets ready to give it his all...okay, let's not talk crazy now, not quite his all. He may still need to walk out of here.

Force 5 Manipulate Actions -2 -3: 11d6 ⇒ (2, 6, 1, 6, 2, 5, 6, 3, 2, 5, 2) = 40 = 5 hits

Same. Resist 5 or throw rifle over edge and kneel down passively.

Resist Stun 5 -3pen: 10d6 ⇒ (5, 2, 3, 3, 2, 4, 5, 1, 4, 2) = 31 --> 2 hits. 3 more stun.

Power groans and sags down. Seems like he's having a bad day. Yesterday at this time we was just deciding which donut to have with his coffee. He swears if he ever finds those runners that ruined his life he will make them -pay-.

7d6 ⇒ (3, 6, 5, 1, 6, 1, 4) = 26
The rifle flies from the side of the building and the sniper ducks out of sight behind the parapet wall of the apartment building.

whew, nice gamble. but how long does he kneel for?

2 minutes

Better get going. ;)

going at top speed!

Since Max and Adrik are pursuing the gunman, I'm gonna say it take 39 seconds to reach the building, than another minute to find the stairs and ascend to the top. Leaving 21 seconds to interact with the sniper. Who will take a shot with a handgun when you reach the top, from a kneeling position, missing the group, but setting the tone.

Sprinting as far as my wounded body will take me....how many boxes did I need to mark off? I thought I was down and out...

Done with this drek-for-brains, Max lashes out with his monofilament whip at the sniper who s+#$ all over his run for no discernable reason.

reach melee: 13d6 ⇒ (3, 3, 3, 5, 2, 6, 5, 6, 2, 3, 3, 3, 4) = 48 - 4 hits
and he has -1 to defense vs it
damage: 12P, AP -8

You were down, but not out. Adrik is in Overflow boxes right?

10d6 ⇒ (6, 3, 5, 2, 5, 5, 1, 1, 3, 6) = 37 = 5 hits, and he manages to get out of the way of the whip before drawing a knife and attacking Max
12d6 ⇒ (3, 2, 3, 5, 2, 1, 4, 1, 4, 4, 1, 6) = 36 = 2 hits

this is my first time defending in melee so hopefully i do this right

(parry) reaction+intuition+melee: 14d6 ⇒ (4, 4, 3, 2, 2, 5, 4, 4, 1, 2, 3, 5, 2, 5) = 46 - 3 hits

I don't have the book in front of me, but I believe parry lowers your initiative by 5, while it doesn't matter in this round, it does have consequences.

Initiative
Adrik: 11 = 11
Max: 8 + 1d6 ⇒ 8 + (3) = 11
Liam: 7 = 7
Rankev: 6 = 6
sniper: 9 + 2d6 ⇒ 9 + (3, 2) = 14
Sniper 14, Adrik 11, Max 11, Liam 7, Rankev 7

The sniper attacks again with his knife
12d6 ⇒ (4, 5, 6, 4, 5, 4, 4, 1, 4, 1, 1, 2) = 41 = 3 hits

yes it does lower it by 5.

reaction+intuition: 9d6 ⇒ (6, 3, 2, 2, 2, 4, 6, 1, 1) = 27 - 2 hits (standard defense i can do for free it says)

on my action:

Max steps back and lashes out again!
monofilament whip: 13d6 ⇒ (2, 1, 3, 2, 2, 1, 2, 4, 2, 5, 4, 5, 4) = 37 - 2 hits
extra dice if Adrik is also in melee: 1d6 ⇒ 3 - no extra hit
he has -1 defense dice against this

soak 6S -3 AP

10d6 ⇒ (1, 4, 5, 2, 2, 5, 6, 6, 5, 2) = 38=5 hits, dodge the whip again

alrighty, i have 14 armor, and his AP is -3, leaving my modified armor value at 11. My Bone Density Augmentation boosts my Body by 1 for damage reduction tests, so I roll 16 dice.

16d6 ⇒ (3, 2, 3, 1, 3, 5, 2, 4, 5, 6, 6, 4, 1, 4, 5, 5) = 59 - 6 hits
his 6 DV minus my 6 hits = 0, looks like i got just lucky enough that my armor stopped his damage.

Adrik still to go on 11, then Liam and Rankev at 7

Heavily wounded, Rick moves in and tries to disable the shooter.

Attack-martial arts:
Wound level = -3
Attack - 10d6 ⇒ (3, 2, 5, 4, 2, 6, 2, 1, 5, 4) = 34 = 3 Successes

Well, Bad Wolf isn't going to leave Power alone in his condition, so unless he does something...crazy, we'll just be holding down here, quietly rooting for you guys.

defense: 11d6 ⇒ (5, 5, 6, 2, 5, 1, 4, 3, 1, 3, 2) = 37 = 4 success
And the deranged elf manages to avoid both the attack from Adrik and the crack of the whip from Max.

Rankev any actions.

If so, I will retcon this,
The elf swings wildly at Max once more.
12d6 ⇒ (3, 3, 2, 1, 4, 3, 2, 2, 1, 4, 3, 1) = 29 = 0 hits.

Rankev 7, Sniper 4, Adrik 1, Max 1

Not really. I feel like I'm living on borrowed time as it is, and since I can't see him I can't throw any mojo. Power is confident that the two tough fighters can finish off the sniper without any trouble. =)

Max backs up again before whipping at the man, keeping his prey moving in circles around Adrik.

whip: 14d6 ⇒ (5, 6, 5, 5, 4, 2, 4, 5, 3, 5, 4, 4, 6, 3) = 61 - 7 hits!!
-1 defense against the whip. Damage is 12, AP -8

defense -2/Parry: 14d6 ⇒ (2, 6, 6, 1, 4, 5, 6, 2, 2, 4, 4, 3, 3, 5) = 53 = 5 hits
Soak 13P, AP -8: 8d6 ⇒ (1, 5, 2, 4, 5, 2, 5, 4) = 28 = 3 hits
At the end of the round, the psychological disturbed elf will take a hellish lash from Max's whip (9P).

Adrik attacks the elf, 8d6 ⇒ (3, 1, 5, 2, 5, 6, 5, 4) = 31 = 4 hits
Elf dodge 8d6 ⇒ (5, 5, 4, 1, 2, 5, 5, 2) = 29 = 4 hits, he slips the punch.

Initiative
Adrik: 11 = 11
Max: 8 + 1d6 ⇒ 8 + (6) = 14
Liam: 7 = 7
Rankev: 6 = 6
Elf: 9 = 9

Initiative
Max 14, Adrik 11, Elf 9 (9P), Liam 7, Rankev 6, Max 4, Adrik 1

Max backs up again before whipping at the man, keeping his prey moving in circles around Adrik.

whip: 14d6 ⇒ (2, 6, 2, 1, 2, 2, 3, 6, 3, 1, 2, 4, 6, 6) = 46 - 4 hits
-1 defense against the whip. Damage is 12, AP -8

7d6 ⇒ (5, 1, 5, 5, 2, 6, 6) = 30 = 5 hits

Again Adrik tries to strike the man

Attack: 8d6 ⇒ (3, 2, 2, 4, 5, 1, 5, 5) = 27 3 hits

dude gets a hit more than me off of half as many dice. the roller hates this party for sure.

"We're kind of exposed out here, c'mon, give me your hand, let's take cover in th' building in case there are any more snipers."

Bad Wolf leans down and offers Rankev his hand.

Power nods slowly, and accepts the help up. He'll try and walk on his own, and follow Liam to some shelter.

"Where are those guys? I hope they're okay. Shouldn't they have been back by now?"

"Doubt it, it'd probably take about this long t' git up there, and they'd probably take the time to relax an' saunter down when they are done."

so Power and Bad Wolf are using their turns to move towards the building.

7d6 ⇒ (6, 1, 3, 1, 1, 3, 1) = 16
Soaking 6S from Adrik.
16d6 ⇒ (5, 2, 5, 2, 3, 5, 3, 3, 4, 2, 4, 5, 1, 5, 6, 5) = 60 soaked

Attacking Max with a combat knife.
9d6 ⇒ (2, 3, 3, 3, 3, 5, 2, 4, 5) = 30 = 2 hits

Initiative
Elf 9 (9P), Liam 7, Rankev 6, Max 4, Adrik 1

Liam and Rankev are moving toward the building.

Max backs up again before whipping at the man, keeping his prey moving in circles around Adrik.

whip: 14d6 ⇒ (3, 2, 4, 5, 4, 2, 3, 1, 3, 6, 5, 2, 3, 5) = 48 - 4 hits
-1 defense against the whip. Damage is 12, AP -8

on that 7d6 roll the sniper made for soaking from Adrik, i see he got 1 success and over half were 1s. is that a glitch? i dont have my book in front of me

yes, sorry I glossed over that. Let's say it imposes a -4 penalty to defense, as he lea es himself wide open.

3d6 ⇒ (3, 6, 1) = 10 =1 hit
soak 15P, AP -8
spending edge
8d6 + 4d6 + 2d6 + 1d6 ⇒ (3, 3, 1, 5, 5, 6, 5, 3) + (4, 3, 3, 6) + (6, 4) + (5) = 62 = 7 hits
and another crack of the whip and the body of the elf lies in what would seem a very uncomfortable position if he were still alive. His neck, distended and twisted to the right side, his eyes rolled into the back of his head.

Max will examine the remains with his full scope of visual and audio senses before looting the body with his hands.

perception: 10d6 ⇒ (2, 5, 3, 6, 5, 4, 5, 3, 4, 4) = 41 - 4 hits, looking for dangerous things like dead-man's switch, etc.
