Friends and Nemeses

So I used a dp to upgrade, used the boost passed to me, took the strain to aim twice and got 3 successes with 2 advantages, use the advantages to trigger a second blast with the autofire.

Thino Krist; Uprising; rng heavy:
3 Successes, 2 Advantages



second attack will just be aiming twice and I get two sucesses with two advantages use the two advantages to trigger autofire again,

Thino Krist; Uprising; rng heavy:
2 Successes, 2 Advantages



Base 11 damage so a total of 2(11+3)+2(11+2)= 54 damage to the stormtrooper minions.

A fine Job!!! The Soak from each hit is a -20 to that total, but more than enough to take out ALL the Stormtroopers on that side.

"Whose Turn Is It" is updated and ready to go. Note that Strain is building up with everyone despite not taking physical damage recently.

Oona@SanguineAngel, no one has remained alive long enough to warn that the truck is an adversary. "IF" you aimed at the unaware Stormtroopers (+1 SB for cover, short range ) then you could get a +1 Boost for catching them off-guard. Not saying you should. Perhaps some other ruse would be good to do, as well. Or, call for surrender, or something else.

Two PC's go (TWO of: Vesper, Helios, Oona) before the Troopers and Imperial Tanks act again.

By my count, we should have 3 more grenades. I was going to have Vesper chuck another one, but the narration sounds like she's on the far side from the barracks opening and probably doesn't have a clear shot. Is there a hatch at the other side she can run to and open? If so, that would probably eat up both of her maneuvers and end her turn. Might be a good idea for Oona to take the next slot.

Your assumptions are correct. She could use two maneuvers then act to toss a grenade, as you described.

No quickdraw, so it would be 3 maneuvers total: Move to the other side, open the panel, take out a grenade. She can only do two of the three in one turn, alas. @SanguineAngel , you're up!

Cool, I think Oona is definitely not in the mind set for subtle right now, so a blast from the mounted weapon is in order. I will do this in a little bit.

blast! Sorry guys.

Im going to have hell take the next slot before the tanks. He might get some damage on them. hopefully.

Care to roll the Critical %, @swrider ?

Helios; Uprising; Critical hit:
Numeric Roll: 1D100+0=40

Not the best roll.

37-45
Tailspin All firing from ship or vehicle suffers until end of pilot’s next turn

That is actually better than I was expecting.

Top of next round!!!

NPC's
Tank 1: (heavily damaged) +1 Defense
Tank 2:

Stormtroopers: +3 Defense ( +1 Cover, +2 Adv's)

PC's
AT-ST: "Knocked off Course" Pilot cannot execute any (piloting) maneuvers and must make piloting check to regain bearings. Difficulty depends on speed.

Helios will have to make a Piloting-Planetary check based on Speed (3). So, 3 Diff. . This check is a maneuver for him. Failure means you will not be facing the correct direction for attacks (I will interpret the dice on that one. It could mean 'no' or hindered attacks.)

Speeder Truck: +2 SB to attacks taken.

Would it be or . Typically a piloting check is 1/2 sil and speed the smaller upgrading the higher.

Ah! You are right. Sil (3), Speed (2). So, I knew I was missing something. You can do either (CC or DDD), since the Crit table is non-specific.

DS, what kinds of grenades are these that Vesper's been throwing? I was assuming they were standard frag grenades, which do 8 base damage, Blast 6. Are they something else? Or am I misunderstanding how Blast damage is calculated?

Oh, I must have gotten mixed up with the last attack, which had 2 successes that made it 10/8. The correct grenade damage is 8/6. The 8/6 it is. I'll wave in forward and be more careful in the future. 9/7 for this last attack. Successes add to Blast, too. I just checked the CRB.

Paging @Boutrose Saba-Norr @SanguineAngel @swrider
I know life has been busy for us all. I am quite busy myself IRL, not to mention running two sessions of Pathfinder for the table group this month.

NEXT!!!

I'll get a post up tomorrow. Sorry for the delay. Boutrose will be on this weekend.

Sorry for the delay. That should take out one tank and hopefully the other is damaged as well. Still the AT is a sitting duck as it didn't move.

I looked back and saw that we get two setbacks to our attacks against it. I though that I had to make a piloting roll but could not find it anywhere. Please let me know if I did something wrong @DeepSpacer

Also, if you decide to have them take the threats as strain I have a great way to make that happen. Ill post it below in case you want to use it.

As Helios celebrates his fire a warm liquid splashes across his face stinging slightly. The wreching sound coming from Dennies causes Helios to turn just in time to have even more vomit splash into his eyes. A motion sick Dennies tries spewing out an apology but is cut off by Helios. "It ain't a good time till someone vomits. Shall I make her spin faster!"

Hey @DeepSpacer, apologies - I think I may have lost the thread of the combat a little, there.

If I have it right in my head I think we have a dozen or so storm troopers outside the barracks next to a heavy repeater. No tanks are currently in sight of the truck?

I'd like to target the repeater's generator, if I may. Would that be doable? I'd presume if I aim twice?

I think most of the soldiers with the repeating blaster have been killed already by a previous attack. IIRC only the guy holding the generator was left.

Ah, I read it that there were 16 troopers, 4 on the gun, 1 group of 8, and 1 group of 4. I thought vesper's grenade took out the 4 currently on the gun.

Perhaps. I am sure DS can clear it up.

Correct. (except one guy by the generator was barely hanging on to consciousness).

Effectively, 8 on the "Left" taking cover in the doorways of the barracks, 4+1 on the "Right" with the repeating blaster on the ground.

That sounds right.

Stormtroopers:
Range: Short
+2 Defense (cover and 3 Adv)

(Our) Speeder Truck:
Top Gun is useless for one round
Next to act on truck (Thino) takes +1 SB
