Foul! And also, hilarious!

James grabs the grenade off of Irish's belt and drops it over the side, "Here's your Schultz."

Rolls

Coordination 9 + Fighting 4 (13) - (d20, d20)

d20 : (15) = 15

d20 : (1) = 1

Grenade!! - (d6, d6, d6, d6, d6)

d6 : (5) = 5

d6 : (6) = 6

d6 : (3) = 3

d6 : (4) = 4

d6 : (5) = 5

That's a hit, with an extra success. Do you want to add that to the shared Momentum pool, or roll an extra damage die?
Sep 25, 2023 7:48 pm
OOC:
I will add it to the Momentum pool, and hopefully someone might spend it on 'reducing the time' it takes to crank us up to the zeppelin.
Sep 25, 2023 9:50 pm
OOC:
Lots of SFX activated too, yeah?
Sep 26, 2023 1:48 am
The effects are Area and Stun, and 3 are triggered. Also, 3 Stress, less armor, to whoever was in the vicinity.

The grenade pops below you, and buffets the platform.

You're approaching the top. There are people calling from up in the zeppelin. What's your plan when you get high enough to board?

Oh, ooh, ooh, Um, Sabine, Say Germish words!!

"No prisoners. The Brass didn’t ask us to bring any boffins back, so I say we spray and pray once we reach the top. If it moves, put it done.

If they think the zeppelin is lost, they’ll probably open fire soon enough!"


Irish handles his gun, ready to open fire on whoever is above. Time was of the essence here.

Sabine tries to make out what the Germans are saying above, and makes a terribly realization. "If we open fire from 'ere... we risk 'itting the dirigible... and setting it aflame. It's filled with 'ydrogen! At least if it works like their other zeppelins... we'll all be killed!"
Sep 26, 2023 4:16 pm
OOC:
'hydrogen. Love it! 😁
"e's He's right. But what do you suggest? Hand to hand? But they'll spray us as we reach them."

"Shite. The Sister is right. I suppose that means that they won’t be in a rush to fire guns around either though!"

The man puts away his gun and draws his long blade.

"Ready for a wee do-si-do?" Irish chuckles, ready to fall on the German with blade and fist.
Sep 27, 2023 3:39 pm
"I'm always ready," Dan replies to Irish as he too puts away his gun and draws his knife. "Stealthily we go, huh? We all ready for this?" he asks the others.

To Sabine he says, "You can hang back and let us soften them up a bit."

Swann takes over the winch as the lads get ready to rush onto the zeppelin.

Sabine just nods at Dan as she looks up, he eyes peeled for opportunities, for enemies targeting them, for an understanding of how the underslung portions of the zeppelin are laid out...
OOC:
Sabine is pretty good at engineering, being the handy one who looked after the boiler and the truck at the church. Can she roll here to determine some info about vulnerabilities, layout, crew compliment, etc.?
Sep 30, 2023 3:44 pm
OOC:
You're certainly in a position to make sudden an engineering roll, but I'll give you the immediate layout.
The Huginn is huge, the envelope nearly two hundred meters long. The gondola itself (that you are winching into the middle of) is at the forward part of the superstructure, and is thirty meters in length itself.

The Huginn

The Gondola
The Gondola of the Huginn is a thirty-metre boat-shaped hull constructed of steel and aluminium attached to the bottom of the main balloon near the front. The gondola houses the control systems for the Zeppelin as well as officer’s quarters and living facilities

You're entering from below into a wire mesh cage in the center.

There are two Nazis up top waiting for the platform to come up. They're suspicious, or at least anxious, because of the explosions and gunfire. Still, you're ready and in control of when you pop up from out of sight.

One of you may act first, then choose one of the two Nazis (let's call them A or B) to go next. Alternatively, someone else can spend two Momentum (or add Threat) to act before them.Status Table
Momentum: 2
Threat: 9

OOC:
I vote Irish goes first and Dan spends the 2 momentum to take out the second Nazi. Notice how I assume Irish will be successful, no pressure.
Oct 1, 2023 4:34 am
OOC:
Aye, let's gop Irish!

Also, making that engineering roll... two successes. What was the difficulty? I'm a little turned around on one thing -- I'd like to "Obtain Information" about the use of the crystals in the airship, or look for weakpoints, or its secret purpose / power. But it looks like that *only* comes from spending Momentum?

Rolls

Reason (10) + Engineering (2) - (1d20, 1d20)

1d20 : (3) = 3

As soon as the Germans come into view, Irish is charging over the lip of the still ascending platform and going at them (German A) with sword!
OOC:
They Don’t Like It Up Em: When the fighting gets up close and personal, you’re an expert with cold steel, scattering enemies with your irresistible charges. When you move into Reach of an enemy and make a melee attack, the first bonus d20 you buy for that attack is free, and if successful your target is knocked prone.
OOC:
Edges in: Close Quarters + Melee Weapons

Rolls

Brawn 10, Fighting 5 - (1d20, 1d20)

1d20 : (15) = 15

1d20 : (8) = 8

They Don’t Like It Up Em - (1d20)

(10) = 10

That works for me.
