OOC:
Well, 450 is still less than 480 so I'll try my luck...
Tipolei carefully takes aim on one of the remaining Xiticix before squeazing the trigger...
OOC:
Shooting skill is D10, extreme range penalty is -8 (reduced to -6 thanks to my scope), shooting a heavy beam (3 ammo) for 4d6+4 dmg AP4 MegaDmg, and I'll be using a burn dice (added to the result) !!

Edit: final result is 6 for 20 mega damage!!

Shooting, Wild dice - (1d10-6, 1d6-6, RA)

1d10-6 : (7) - 6 = 1

1d6-6 : (62) - 6 = 2

Burn dice - (1d6)

(4) = 4

damage - (4d6+4, RA)

(64) + (1) + (4) + (1) + 4 = 20

I was thinking about using Arcance Protection, but it doesn't say what the range is.

ARCANE PROTECTION
EXALTED ARCANE PROTECTION (+2):
Hostile powers suffer a −4 penalty (– 6
with a raise).

Thoughts? Is this line of sight, or is it just for Ben?

OOC:
Range is your Smarts rating, so not very far at all.

Arcane Protection
Rank: Novice
Power Points: 1
Range: Smarts
Duration: 5
Trappings: Concentration, a dull glow around the protected character, a fetish.
Success with arcane protection means hostile powers suffer a −2 penalty (−4 with a raise) to affect this character. If the power causes harm, damage is also reduced a like amount. Arcane protection stacks with Arcane Resistance should the recipient have both!
MOdiFierS ADDITIONAL RECIPIENTS (+1): The power may affect more than one target for 1 additional Power Point each.

ok, Ben is holding his action then, gun cocked, so to speak.

Recall that Tipolei has+2 to all tests due to the joker. With the burn die, that's a hit with a raise. I rolled that here. 5 more, +2 from the joker, brings the total to 27 damage. Subtracting AP4 from the Toughness gives 17 net damage, which is a kill.
Tipolei's impossible shot hits the next Xiticix in the leg, the leg is blown clean off and the creature falls from the sky, dead.

Leg: Gain the Slow Hindrance (Minor)

Rolls

Injury table - (2d6, 1d6)

2d6 : (55) = 10

1d6 : (3) = 3

1=Wing,2=leg - (1d2)

(2) = 2

Bonus damage - (1d6+2, RA)

(5) + 2 = 7

Tipolei and Ben have acted. The third insect scout is 450 range units away (maybe 120 from Kai). Ana, Chay, and Kai?

I'll wait I have the higher altitude.

Let's smoosh some insects! Actually, I am out of ammo. Let's drive down there and steal their weapons!

Haha! Off we go!

Up goes the kerchief for effect, Chay grips the wheel with both hands and with a determined grimace, heads into the buggy fray.

Driving - (1d8, RA)

Ben climbs out onto the roof and begins to search for an ambush, gun at the ready.
Jul 17, 2020 6:58 pm
Let's see if we can't separate them somehow and grab those rifles.
Jul 17, 2020 7:05 pm
Does Kai want to go one on one with the last insect scout while the team goes hunting for gear? Or do you want to have Tipolei keep shooting from the moving vehicle?
Jul 20, 2020 12:42 pm
OOC:
My bad, If I'm close enough to move and spit fire I'll go that route if not I guess I can fly closer to tackle them?

Kai flies out of its sight from high above and may attack the insect warrior.

Roll your fire breath attack and damage.

Kai watches the bug person and smites fire on them.

The dragon breath consumes the insect but it doesn't appear to be harmed.

The warrior draws two swords (it has four arms) and closes the distance into melee range with Kai. (Action: move)

Kai's turn.

On the ground, Chay plows through younger tree growth toward where he thinks the bodies fell. Notice checks at -2 from those keeping watch on top of Echo.

Kai pushes his wings back rapidly before moving a claw down slashing at the bug

Tipolei picks up the scent and helps steer Echo toward the second creature, the one he shot.
