Map of current fight
This is a Warhammer 40K story set on the world of Skyfall, where 5,000 years ago demons and angels warred in the heavens and broke the sky. Now pieces of that war rain down upon the land and you are the Scavanger teams sent to reclaim those pieces of lost technology that might survive, from an area called the Skybreak.
This is your life and it's not an easy one, the Skybreak takes as much as it gives but it gave you hope of better times.
At least it did, until they came
Does anyone mind if I move this along to the next scene?

...Samus you say...
*&%^!
I'm enjoying exploiting the gap between what you know and your characters ignorance.
On the bright side you're all about to get a justification for getting forbidden lore demonology
That reminds me, refresh your fate points and get 200 exp

Samus?! Why do you hate us....
excellent....I'm thinking it may be fun to have My goal to have my character "die" of corruption before he gets incinerated, eviscerated, or turned to mulch hahaha. I figure if I can do that, it would be a win.
Let me know if your doing any special tactics on how your going to approach this next fight

I'm banking my XP, trying to get up to Medicae +30 to keep everyone alive as long as possible.

As some who are in my other games already know. We have had two deaths in the family this week. One expected, and one tragic and young. My youngest is also going into surgery for a complication due to her condition, and the chances are looking like a coin flip. I have dropped 80% of my games, leaving just a few. This is one that will survive the cut.
I will be spotty for a bit, but bare with me and I will do right by you my friends.
Also, banking my 200.

Honestly take as much time as you need.
RPG's demand more commitment than most hobbies, often an unfair amount (in my opinion) so I've always played and run them with a "Real life comes first" philosophy.
Because this is a hobby (my favourite hobby) but it's still just that.
Our characters should always come second to our players.
I'm honestly honoured that you kept this game at all.
My condolences for your loss

condolences. I have lost a close family member before twice as well. However they were not so close together. best wishes.
Let me know when your ready to ascend those stairs and go into the next scene

Here's something that might help
TERRIFY
A commander can use the Command Skill to terrify his
followers into fearing him more than a Fear-causing foe.
As a Reaction, a character can try to counter the effects
of Fear (see page 305) in his troops should they fail
their Willpower Test against a Fear-causing foe. Make a
Command Skill Test opposed by the Willpower of the
Fear-causing creature. Both the character and the creature
add +10 to their rolls for each level of Fear they possess.
If the character is successful, his followers ignore the
effects of Fear from this creature for the encounter.
pre-rolling for speed
Willpower of enemies: 1d100 ⇒ 21
@Jak and @Davien I'm going to be botting anyone who has posted by Tuesday night
Duncan you'll be pleased to hear that all explosion damage is to the chest so it's actually
The force of the blast sends the target sprawling to the ground. The target is knocked backwards 1d5 ⇒ 3
metres, Stunned for 1 Round, and is knocked Prone.
Also I am not using that rule. I put too much work into these combats to have someone 1 shot everything
Ogryn
Cool beans. Not sure how I got the location wrong, but that is an awesome effect for this fight.
@Davien that system makes sense
Though flame breath is 3 shots not 1 shot
sorry, I put all 3 shots together. Should I not do that in the future?
I prefer if they were separate as it makes the damage calculations easier
yes apologies, it slipped my mind that, yes, each one has to get through armor and toughness.
@Davien I'm going to be posting the next round tomorrow night
apologies, had 2 tests this week and some other stuff keeping my attention.

It's fine. Exams kind of suck but they're more important than this
Medic. FP: 0/1, Wounds 9/9. TB: 3. Armour: 4.
@All My laptop is out of commission for a bit I am afraid, still under warranty but it'll be a while. I'll sort something temporary in the next few days hopefully but things will slow down with having to use my phone.
I'm going to be botting more frequently because this combat has been dragging on for far to long.
From now on I'll wait 3 days and bot anyone who hasn't posted by then.

I think that's more than fair as a heads up.
I'll be moving it forward tomorrow
Sorry all, having a bit of a rough time IRL at the moment... As such, posting with be sparse. Please bot as needed, and I apologize for the inconvenience.
Thanks for the heads up. I hope things go well for you
I'm updating this Monday night (GMT +0)

So that combat dragged on for far too long.
I think I'll stay away from Orks as enemies just because their main threat comes from their difficulty to kill rather than any their damage.
Future fights will have enemies with low health but high kill threat

We can live with that!
(or not ;) )
Just a reminder that your orders were to contact the Reckless Dawn and the Data Demon did need your help to transmit itself to it
I'm taking the weekend off. Next update will be Monday/Tuesday

Cheers for the heads up, GM.
