Scene 2: Let's move like we got a purpose

No power lost on using the motion tracker.

If you want to leave the block you're currently in the first options I notice are

- North through the door that has a blip on the other side of it, to enter Block B2
- North and then west, to use the abandoned corridor that leads through to the casino
- South, back to Elev 03

From here, your main options are either leave the building through the South Lock - from there you could go to the shuttle without going through any more buildings if you wanted. Or you could go north up through the base buildings, maybe going out the North Lock and then through the North Wall Gate.

It would be much quicker to stay outside the buildings.

im on a work trip atm, and i need to chexk through the combat rules before i respond to this - hope to do that today or tomorrow. Yes!! Something has hit the fan!!!

Sorry for the delay. Work was too tiring this week for me to sit with the ranged combat rules. BUT. I'm doing it now!

Roll for @microtheMacroBear/Singleton is:

- 7 Base Dice (Agility Stat 5, Ranged Combat Skill 2)
- 4 Stress Dice
- 3 Range Modifier Dice (attacking from Engaged range firing at a defenceless or unwitting enemy - if they weren't unwitting, it would be -3 instead see p94 Core Rules)
- 2 Weapon Bonus Dice

So I make that 4 Stress Dice plus 12 'other' dice.

As in many systems (I think, for example, including DnD 5e), there aren't explicit rules for attempting to disable or aim to hit a specific part of the target's body.

RAW here does offer a way for it to happen - damage Holroyd until his health is 0, and then roll a 2 on the Synthetic Critical Injury table ("Destroyed Leg Servos").

My ruling here (if playing synchronously I'd discuss/agree this with you - but for sake of time I'm just going to be directive and make a decision) is that ONLY in the case of attacking an unwitting/unsuspecting target, you can use TWO stunt dice to disable a specific part of the body. It's not as easy as pointing at the body part and just shooting at it - the point is the target isn't expecting this, so if you pull the weapon out, aim it at that part, then the element of surprise is gone. So it's not an easy thing to do.

So for that, Singleton will need to roll three 6s (one for the initial 'to hit', and then two additional ones for the costs-two-dice stunt of "Destroyed Leg Servos".

AND if either @C1NDER or @microtheMacroBear don't want to go with this option, then we'll run it RAW as a compromise.

I checked back through this thread @microtheMacroBear, and it's Holroyd who got -1 AGILITY because they killed Komiskey - I didn't see anyone else who has that penalty on-going - but maybe there's a stress/panic effect in play here. So I assume you DO get that extra Agility dice you rolled (and, indeed, rolled a 6 on).

Wat I meant with the stunt dice was - you can 'buy' the stunt to specifically disable the legs, but where most stunts 'cost' a single 6, I'm going to make this stunt cost two 6s.

So on this roll, you got two 6s - so for the first 6, you do one damage to Holroyd (your weapon's damage is 1), so Holroyd's health goes down from 7 to 6.

Then you can enact one stunt with the additional 6 you rolled (the 'disable legs' stunt isn't available, as you would have needed to roll an additional 6 to deploy it). You can choose from:

- additional +1 damage
- Swap initiative card with opponent
- Opponent makes Panic Roll
- Opponent drops held item/weapon
- Opponent prone or pushed back

We haven't drawn initiative yet, so that's not a useful option, i don't think.

As Holroyd is a synthetic, he doesn't make Panic Rolls.

So your choices are, I think

- additional +1 damage
- Opponent drops held item/weapon
- Opponent prone or pushed back

Ah, good to have a heads up on that @ThatTaoGuy - in that case I'm going to roll for initiative for everyone now.

EDIT so, I'm treating this initially as a combat between just Singleton and Holroyd, so Holroyd will get a chance to act next before anyone else.

After that, combat rounds will happen in the order:

1. Hirsch
2. Holroyd
3. Macwhirr
4. Singleton
