OK I am going to post for Hell. all he will be able to do is move closer anyways. IIRC it shoudl only be one manauver to get from my location to them since they are short range from me? If not I will only close the distance by one maneuver.

Boss should close in like hell did, but unless we want to shoot first we everyone else should either spend their round aiming or doing something besides firing.

@DeepSpacer, you're saying they can't go?

I'm not sure if my suggestion to AAA counted as my turn, but I don't have much else to do anyway besides cower. I can try to lend a boost to Monty, maybe.

I am not going to allow another social check. The choice was to use deception. And it worked so the NPCs are going to dig in and defend their boss against the police. I will roll a fear check for a compromise of not getting to use the charm check.

Do you want the NPCs to fire first then go into structured time?

So the NPC will add a setback for the entire encounter. But for the advantage he gets 1 boost for the first roll

Remember AAA rolled 1 Advantage on the Deception check. Did that allow the Fear check? If not, they should get another black die.

Everyone. Trip has to step away from the boards for an indefinite period of time. He has asked that I or Shado take over as GM. So far Shado has not commented, but I have offered. What are everyones thoughts? Do you wish to continue? Are you ok with me stepping in? If so would any of you like to take over Hell?

Very glad to hear Trip and company are well!

Rider, would it make more sense for you to GM Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, and for Shado to GM this game? Assuming you'd both be willing, of course. In that scenario, you don't have to give up playing Hell, and Shado doesn't have to give up playing Rokar.

Make more sense yes. Problem is that I don't have any knowledge of DRS and Shado has none of this game. I also don't typically GM premade adventures as I find them too limiting. The specifics are being discussed but Shado has turned down GMing this game.

There are still numerous PC slots in the initiative before the NPCs go. If your plan is to wait for them to take an action please make a post stating that you are aiming or taking another action on this round that does not involve attacking.

So, Trip had stated no more social checks, and we're trying to get them to surrender without a fight. Anjali is willing to do some kind of check that would boost one of her allies, like cause a distraction or whisper advice.

Yeah, sounds like Trip wanted this to come to blasters, though.

Can we see them to aim? Sounds like Sixxkiller ran inside, so I'm not sure we even have a shot. Also, what range is their hideout from us?

Yeah you are out of social checks. The control room is short distance from where they started so that is long distance from where you are at the entrance to the facility. The original people who have not moved are at medium range from the group.

So....
Monty, AAA, Anjali are all short from the Control Room?
Boss, Helio are long distance?
Who are the original people?

Also, we haven't seen Sixxkiller, have we?
