To be fair, I have no idea if I obliterated it, but my experiences with Savage Worlds tells me that yes, with that much damage I completely wrecked its face.


Fair enough


The issue with combat is just how initiative is rolled. It's usually a card draw, but I'm sure there's alternative means of doing so.


IIRC, you can still result in a shaken, but you can't cause wounds without a heavy weapon. At least that's how it was in the Necessary Evil games I played. However, the downgrade of damage that heavy weapons vs. regular armor has is more forgiving than in core RIFTS.


mega damage isnt the same as in original rifts. But yeah, you will do significantly less.

"Yes boys, it's Coalition." Solaire reports as the two groups converge. "Looks like 2 SAMAS and 2 Airbikes incoming, and the same amount heading for town... S$~%, they've got boats too."

There's the unmistakable sound of the Glitterboy's drill pylons engaging. The comm crackles one last time. "Get clear of me." the pilot advises.

Readying to fire upon the further back of the two SAMAS once they get within range 1000, unless someone has a better idea.

At range 1000:

Shooting: 1d10 ⇒ 10
Wild: 1d6 ⇒ 4
Raises: 1d10 ⇒ 4
-4 Long Range. Total Result: 10

Damage: 4d12 + 6 ⇒ (1, 2, 11, 11) + 6 = 31
Raise Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 6
Raises: 1d6 ⇒ 3
AP 25, Mega-Damage. Total Damage: 40


"Radar picks up something moving towards granite town. Fast." Solaire reports. "Still trying to get a visual."


The coms crackle. "Hold on. Something's coming. Maybe SAMAS." Solaire's voice accompanies his power armor slowing to a stop.

If I use my boomgun's targeting, can I get a good look at what's incoming?

Sorry for the late response! I forgot to check this last few days and of course THAT's when the game comes up!


Knight Solaire will have met everyone first in person, outside of his glitterboy armor. "Looks like we have a good group here. I hope we can cooperate and maybe even get to enjoy each other's company in the future. Now let's get out there and do some good."

It doesn't take long to find his power armor, a beautifully kept and polished glitterboy armor. The chest plate has an (obviously chromed) emblem of a sun on it.

Solaire has joined the Tomorrow Legion because in his eyes it was the right thing to do. The Tomorrow Legion stands to help people in need and in Solaire's mind that's what he was destined to do.
He sees the Coalition as adequate for the basics of survival, but the time for them has long since passed and they should have changed gears from just the survival of man to improving life by now. He has never had a problem with D-Bees or men of magic, though he doesn't understand them either.

His short term goals are to do good for the innocents and helpless in the world. (seriously, it's kinda broad but its what he really wants to do).
His long term goals are to form the foundation of an organized network across the continent that can exchange information and rapidly deploy to different regions in need. A network of jolly cooperation, if you will.

The only acceptable vehicle for a Glitterboy is a large Glittermount.

I need one with a bumper sticker on its flank that says "Praise the Sun!" on it.

In all seriousness though if we find a guy who makes vehicles, I want a chromed cyber horse for sure.

That is the spirit Solaire!

I think the trailer is not necessary.

I believe in rounded characters, who are able to handle more than just a single situation. Also, it wouldn't be very Heroic of him to hide in his power armor all the time. :p


I made my character capable of holding his own outside the armor too. I have cyber armor and some light armor i wear when not using my GB, a laser pistol, and that wonderful grenade launcher too!:p. I also have some computer skills and can be helpful outside of battle.


I'll walk along. Glitterboys can spend days in their suits if need be. :)

I was talking recovering the vehicle post battle, not stealing one. Sorry, I now realize that it sounded like that. I'm all for mercy.

I'll chip in 2k for the ATV!

Lol.

Lets fashion a Glitterboy saddle so we can ride on your shoulders :D

Sounds good to me. Just don't straddle my boomgun. That might be awkward for some less mature people. Probably me. I'd be chortling the whole trip.

On a more serious note, I didn't actually have to spend any money on my gear so I have 2400 credits I can pool towards a vehicle, but I'm actually more for "Acquiring" a vehicle from the bad guys. Free cars>paid for cars, especially when anti-tank guns are being fired nearby.

Or if it comes down to it, I think I could just drag a sled behind me you all could sit on. ;) Don't laugh, it might come down to that some days!


Dotting in.

I'm not sure yet. I would like to see what else everyone in the group is interested in doing before I commit.
