9d6.hits(5)=4→ [4,1,2,5,5,2,5,1,5] = (4)

Initiative score: 13

Aim to reaquire target, firing single shot and using edge for the re-roll. I'm aiming for his eye

8 (Agility)+4 (Firearms)+1 (Lasersight)= 13
I'm assuming the penalty for hitting small objects applies which is -4; ending with a healthy 9 dice

9d6.hits(5) → [4,1,4,2,3,6,2,4,5] = (2)
7d6.hits(5) → [6,5,3,5,2,3,2] = (3)

That makes 5 hits.

4d6.hits(5) → [2,1,3,4] = (0)  5 net hits = 15DV at -1AP

Soak Roll 19d6.hits(5) → [4,2,2,6,5,5,3,2,4,4,4,6,5,2,2,2,3,3,4] = (5)
Edge reroll on soak 16d6.hits(5) → [2,6,6,6,6,2,3,5,1,5,6,3,3,1] = (7)  woah, lucky roll. 
Final Damage is only 3P this time, but you've forced it to spend its only Edge.  Just a matter of time now before you wear it down.  In other words, without that edge, you would have just put 9P in the sucker, and on the next shot, you just might.

Fire Spirit attacks with Elemental Attack (8d6-2 for shooting while running) 6d6.hits(5) → [1,4,3,3,4,6] = (1)
dodge some more 3d6.hits(5) → [3,1,4] = (0) Final DV= 4 -halfAP.  Still not quite enough.




Oh hey, I just realized that I forgot the two shots from the southern tower on the whole "previous attacks this pass" penalty.  Changed up the results a bit more to reflect it.

Final Result is 3P from Ruckus' shot and no effect from the Fire Spirit.

I'm going to use a free action to hook my blazer back to my belt and then a Simple action start climbing again.  I have a Simple Action left.

[AJBuwalda]

Well, that was an edge well spend. First blood and an edge used 

[Kontact]

Before I call Devoted's next action, I need to know if he can see the gargoyle using his astral perception (Devoted is astrally perceiving now), or if he can float to a position where he can see the gargoyle. If he can get in LOS of the gargoyle on his turn without separating himself too far from Machete and Ruckus, that would be what I want him to do, so he can try to smack it with a spell and draw attention to Devoted, Machete and Ruckus. I do NOT want Devoted to float outside the building into the open air and attack the gargoyle drawing attention to him alone, unless he can float back to Machete and Ruckus immediately after he does so.

You have LoS, but the gargoyle will get a bonus to his resistance tests due to partial cover... not that it particularly matters because it'll also get an equal negative from its allergy to sunlight.

Complex Action:
Devoted casts Mana Bolt Force 4 at the gargoyle: Magic 4 + Spellcasting4 + Mentor Spirit Bonus for Combat Spells 2 - Sustain Spell2 = 8dice, 8d6.hits(5) → [4,4,5,6,2,5,4,1] = 3 hits. (stroke through that last one because I forgot Devoted's magic rating is only 3 because of BC.)
DV = F/2= 4/2=2P (Gonna be physical since magic rating is 3 and spell is being cast at Force 4)
Devoted Resists Drain = Willpower5 + Charisma4 + Combat Fetish Bonus 2 = 11 dice, 11d6.hits(5) → [1,2,1,3,1,3,6,3,4,6,4] = 2 hits. Drain soaked. (wew!)
Free Action: Held
Movement: floats about 2 meters below Machete and Ruckus.

As a side note, I am assuming that if he had cast the spell at Force 3, only 2 of those hits would have counted since, because of BC, the spell's actual force would be 2. Is that correct? Geez... this is complicated! lol So this spell's actual force is Force 3 because of BC, because he cast it at Force 4?

[AJBuwalda]

Who's next?

[Kontact]

Sorry for the delay.  Finals finished last week and I'm traveling at the moment.

No, the BC only effects attributes.  It kind of double dips on Foci, but that's the one thing that Foci have going against them.

Anyway, rolling resistance.
6d6.hits(5) → [3,1,6,5,3,5] = (3) hmmmm..  Usually resistance rolls aren't effected by wound or distraction modifiers.  One die less though and this would have put some more hurt on the critter..

I dunno.  It's luck will run out before long with all the fire being put on it.

[Crossbow]

Even though I will probably be too late to get in on the party I am continuing to hustle up the structure, am I having any luck finding something rusty and sharp to stab his dead body with when I get to him?

Just wondering 

[joe15552]

As another side note, I think AJ is about to explode. Anyone have some relief for the poor guy? Is it his turn yet?

I want to blast that sucker and like to do something every day

[AJBuwalda]

Where everybody at?

[joe15552]

Well, the holidays can be pretty intense in America. This country is like, 4500 kilometers wide, and some Americans have to travel that entire distance by car to see their families. It can be pretty time consuming... be patient. I am sure the game will progress, just not very quickly over the holidays. The holidays end around January 4th for Americans, though, so not too long to wait, really.

[Crossbow]

Still here, but yeah, the holidays and semester end for some too, not me personally, but I got a move coming up that may pull me outta the loop for a bit also. 

[AJBuwalda]

Ok, cool. We don't have that over here. Our country is so small that everything is about 250 miles apart at a maximum. That and we do not do much around christmas. Just hanging and eating those two days and working most of the rest.
