maybe we can comm them and tell them the cat hired us. That might cause them to hesitate?Aug 9, 2021 3:07 pm
OOC:
Sounds like a persuade roll. at -2 penalty since Jelar doesn't like Slim touching the comms while he's piloting.Aug 9, 2021 3:25 pm
OOC:
I don't know what skill to use to stats are all over the place and since it will be made with a -2 I'm gonna sit this one out and let Jelar do the flying don't wanna fudge the team up again lol Aug 9, 2021 3:30 pm
OOC:
OK, lets just say you're on hold in case the shuttle takes damage and needs immediate repair or catches fire... that work?Aug 9, 2021 3:36 pm

Slim contacts their would-be ambushers and attempts to appeal to their sense of reason; 'Not sure what your plan was there, or who put y'all up to this, but we are working for Loki. Not sure you want to raise his hackles.'

Slim waits after sending over his message and just hears radio silence. Looking down you realize Jelar fighting you everytime you got close to him had the message not transmitted due to the frequency not being up.
Jelar moves some distance but realizes he's moving through an area with a lot more debris out and about. You see a sudden spark from the would be ambushers engines as they finally begin the chase.

Jelar focuses on moving away from his pursuers and moves to swerve away from shifting debris but trusts his gut and shifts through a sudden clear path threading an impossible path to normally follow.
OOC:
So Club gives obstacles of -2 but rolling to move gives +2 so you've succeed with a raise. Guess I'll check out what happens on a joker in a chase???[ +- ] The Chase R3

is there anything we can do to help Jelar avoid obstacles, or to hinder the ship following us? Aug 12, 2021 3:41 pm
OOC:
I don't know...never took space flight into account so I'm a loss for what to do since I've spread my stats evenly...I guess I could use my Electronics skill to do...something...Aug 12, 2021 3:50 pm
OOC:
Sounds like a plan, astronavigation isn't really a skill so lets go with Notice at -2 please, Electronics could work maybe you start shifting your location of the shuttle's signal to throw off which way you are exactly? Electronics at -2 please.Aug 12, 2021 4:19 pm
What the hell is all that ruckus?! Rovann bellowed out. he was contemplating on drinking the bottle of synth wine he swiped from the canteen while he was being manhandled by the proprietress when the whole ship lurched forward then turned sharply in a zig-zagging motion. He might not be a pilot, but he has ridden on space ships like this to know if it was doing evasive maneuvers. That Jelar didn't even have the grace to warn him over the communicators miffed him a little bit. getting his bearings, he sprinted upwards to the cockpit section and was about to shout at Jelar when he saw why they were flying erratically: they were in an asteroid field. glancing on the navigation map at the front he noticed they were being chased by unknown ships.
I'll be damned if I get shot down here in space or get smashed on a space rock, he thought grimly. Rovann immediately went into action registering the danger they are in. he took a seat in front of the ship's electronics console and tried to do something to mess up with the Bushwacker's targeting systems. He just hopes he remembered the algorithm to use. It had been too long since he tried this trick.

Either due to the jarring ride or Jelar moving hands away from the instruments while he pilots you almost find you're getting something useful before it's lost to assist him. Although he's shown himself to be an exceptional pilot he seems to be a little possessive of things he's doing and doesn't trust it to others.
Behind in the sensor instruments you see your late to the party ambushers fly into the concentrate debris behind you. You seem them squeaking how but much slowly than your own pilot.

Jelar shouts to Rovann, "Try jamming the shuttles signal again and let's see if we can lose them or gain some ground!"
He tries another switch of path through the debris, again hoping it causes static to the pursures scanners.

rolling is at plus 2 but assistance +1 from your crew is rolling at -2 from you hindrance so you are you worse enemy when receiving help unless the roll goesreat. No penalties yet though... may slim or rovann can help the other to try and assistAug 13, 2021 6:15 pm
What the heck do you think I'm doing? just pushing buttons?!
well actually that's what I'm trying to do but that's beside the point Rovann thought while trying to remember the jamming codes he learned a long time ago. He input new codes again hoping that it will finally work to get those bushwackers off their tail.

Well, can you push them, I don't know, better?' Slim adds, desperate to get out of this situation, but frustrated that he can't help.
