OOC:
Ken and Blih aren't 'in' your scene at the moment.

Your in a large room, lots of debris and wreckage to one side, a large section of the floor is missing, cables and girders hang from the ceiling, and just to your rear is the doorway to the hall. It's a medium distance back down the hallway to the Turbolift shaft you climbed down. Your range to the Nexu is short.

I'll assume Ken and Blih and moving quickly towards the impending carnage...

OOC:
Triumph idea, what if when the Nexu popped out could something from the ceiling has fallen slightly in his path to cause an obstacle between us and him

Manuever, move toward the Turbolift (short to Turbolift, Medium to Nexu
Manuever 2, Aim at the Nexu (free manuever due to extra limbs)
Action Fire my pistol at the Nexu

I will take it that the obstacle would add a setback to the roll and my aim has a boost, will roll both on the check. If the change is okay
Pergano moves back toward the Turbo lift and aims his gun at the Nexu and yells at Ad-Hoc I think it is time to go now...

Rolls

Range (Light) Medium Distance

3 Success, 1 Advantage, 2 Failure, 3 Threat

Total: 1 Success, 2 Threat

OOC:
assuming the obstacle is there . . if not, I'll just shoot at the ground between us
Regretting not having had a chance to use it for the intended purpose yet, AD-hoc aims and fires his multi goo gun at the junk between them and the nexu. 'That should make the debris more difficult to traverse.' he says ans he runs to catch up.
OOC:
remember, we only have to outrun Jeswian j/k

Rolls

Ranged Light: goo gun sort range

2 Success, 2 Advantage, 1 Failure

Total: 1 Success, 2 Advantage

OOC:
Made some minor changes to characters actions based on what I think would happen if we were setting around the table talking it out. The Goo gun has a Special effect, spending one Advantage on a successful hit can "disorient" the target for a round.(Adds a Black die to all checks)
The Nexu's leap triggers a small avalanche of debris from one side of the room. It stumbles for a moment as it's progress is interrupted. Pergano backs towards the door and fires his blaster striking the Nexu, sparks fly. AD-hoc pulls out what is normally considered a repair tool, the Multi-Goo gun, and fires a blast of sticky black 'goo' at the Nexu. The blast wraps it's face and limbs in a Disorienting slime. As AD-hoc pulls back, Jeswain lays down a barrage with his blaster pistol, striking the Nexu yet again. The three of you regroup in the doorway leading back into the ships corridor.

The Nexu makes an attempt to leap at you, however, between the scattered debris and the disorienting goo, it stumbles and fails to make any progress.

Meanwhile, just as Ken and Blih have reached the ropes, they hear their ship easing through the canopy of trees.

'It won't take long for the creature to continue the pursuit of its prey.' Ad-hoc says before continuing to the bridge
May 7, 2021 3:20 pm
Hearing the blaster fire Ken calls the ship, 'Pergano, Jeswain, and AD-hoc are engaged with something on the bridge, can you assist?'
May 7, 2021 9:00 pm
Pergano keeps pushing Ad-Hoc and Jeswain to move down the corridor before ducking behind some cover and taking another shot at the Nexu.
OOC:
Maneuver, Take cover
Maneuver, Aim
Action Attack

Hmm failing to make any progress, I take it he is still behind the debris and still the same distance

Rolls

Range (Light) Medium Distance

4 Success, 3 Advantage, 1 Failure, 3 Threat

Total: 3 Success

OOC:
Yes, he's in the same spot as before. The penalty from the goo gun lasts 1 round, so the Nexu can move as normal on his turn.
Pergano's blast strikes the Nexu soundly, it lets out a fierce cry... One that is echoed a moment later from somewhere deeper in the ship.

Dancy hears Ken's report of the situation. She drops the ship rapidly (wrecklessly?) toward Ken and Blih's position. As they squint against a rush of dusty air, they see the ship hovering in front of them, the ramp hangs open, just a half meter off of the ground.

Hop on, Dancy calls, I'll get you up to them.
OOC:
AD-Hoc, your up in the shooting/running order :)
May 9, 2021 4:56 pm
AD-hoc continues making his way back to the bridge. Curious as to how many of these creatures make the ship their home. And how many are enhanced? Who modified them? There would most likely be no answers as his main goal now was to get to safety. Activating his comlink he says 'You should see us exiting shortly.'
OOC:
not sure how far away from the the exit I was. I'll use 2 strain to run as far/fast as possible.

Jeswain heeds Pergano's insistence that they get moving. He bolts past Pergano's position in the doorway and follows AD-hoc back down the corridor to the Turbo-lift path.

The Nexu struggles out of the debris and moves quickly toward Pergano.
OOC:
The Nexu ran out of movement in Short range, it's looking forward to 'engaging' with Pergano :)
AD-hoc and Jeswain used all of their movement, so they are standing at the 'doorway' to the turbolift shaft that they climbed down from the bridge level.
May 10, 2021 7:01 pm
Blih step on the ramp and grab an handle with his free hand. He looks at the small blaster in his other hand.

"Do we have something a little bit bigger?"
May 10, 2021 7:07 pm
Swinging in behind Blih, Ken holds up his own blaster, 'This is all we've got. If we make some decent money on this job I'm upgrading!'
May 10, 2021 8:02 pm
With the Ken and Blih on the ramp, Dancy begins raising the ship towards the bridge.

Reinforcements are on the way guys, they'll be on the bridge momentarily.
May 10, 2021 8:25 pm
Pergano starts to fall back even more toward Ad-Hoc and Jeswain before turning once again and firing at the Nexu. This thing sure seems to like us...
OOC:
Maneuver Move to Medium Range
Maneuver Aim
Action Attack

wahoo he has cleared the debris so no setback :)

since no success, could I use the Advantage to add a Setback to the next check of the Nexu?

OOC:
Because of the Room/Doorway/hallway configuration, you would need to Aim + shoot then Maneuver to Medium. That being said, your shot is at short range, which drops the second Purple die. So it's 2 success, 2 Advantage.
Pergano stares into the metalic jaws and with a cold eye, aims and blasts the Nexu. It shrieks in pain, though it looks far from dead, it seems momentarily defeated as it springs away into the darkness. Pergano moves down the corridor towards the turbolift shaft.

As the trio reunites, the roar of at least 2 other creatures echoes up from the bowels of the crashed ship. They seem to be intent on finding you.
May 11, 2021 2:57 pm
Pergano smiles as the Nexu flees before turning on his comms Dancy, how close are you for extraction. I don't think I deterred this guy for very long.
May 11, 2021 3:47 pm
AD-hoc listens to the creature sounds and pauses as if doing quick calculations. 'We should climb out immediately, and arrange transport after we exit safely.' he says before climbing the turbolift shaft.
May 11, 2021 6:28 pm
I'll have the ramp to the ship hovering at the bridge in about a minute, I assume you're heading this way?

Moment's later the lip of the ramp aligns with the bridge windows. Ken and Blih stand ready on the end of the ramp.
May 11, 2021 7:38 pm
Don't have to tell me twice... Pergano starts running back to the bridge where the Nexu came out waving AD-Hoc and Jeswain along with him. Gun still drawn and keeping an eye on the surroundings as he is running.
May 11, 2021 9:26 pm
Ken keeps them covered from the ramp, keeping his eyes peeled for any sign of the creatures that attacked them.
