Gah - my bad on the first, didn't notice it was a different colour.

On the second - a, it was a joke, b, you do realise I'm British, right?

edit: Not a get at, before any misunderstanding develops - just pointing it out.

Checking if setting mines really would blow holes in the ship: (I was guessing, old ships like this were built with lots and lots of steel, so it could take it.)
Engineering (10d6.hits(5)=3)

Good location to spring a trap (if possible with explosives), preferably one where the ships minigun can fire at too.
Tactics (11d6.hits(5)=5)

Yes, and Yes -- from the other thread where you were starting a game.  It's why I was careful to say "some Brits" -- I know I'm stereotyping from several people I know, their stories of their homeland, and books & movies.   Your whole other Brit game thread is actually part of my inspiration to play a Brit character.  But she's far from a smarmy doxy

On the joke, I think we're both experienced players.  You play Crow, and if he's a git, fine.  I'll play Minnow, and sometimes she can be a prissy small-town pub brat.  If they have a fight, I won't take it out on you.

on the deck is the best option especially with explosives this ship is in bad condition for an explosion within the hull.

The mini gun is actually a LMG but it's on a fixed mount that would be able to fire on the landing pad.

Damned, was just posting IC ut got ninja'd :p

"Can not predict movement of crab, but explosives very predictable if you know them.", Wagner replied, emphasis on "know". "Mines on deck will not blow holes. Thick metal will bounce explosion back and hurt what is above even more. If we set ambush on landing pad where deck is strongest and inside range of machine gun we captured, we can take out crab without risk of death on a guess that it moves slow."

I'm assuming my Air Supply drone's on the landing pad (which might be what the thing is after) and the doberman went below deck with Wagner...

[SeriousOne338]

You notice it leaves the doberman alone and it's chasing you guys.

[The Big Peat]

crisses - cool cool then.

Xzylvador - I figure Crow's most recent experience of explosives has been fairly primitive :p

edit: Is it possible to make a called shot to avoid armour with this thing, and if so, what would the penalty be?

[SeriousOne338]

Not really the thing is heavily armored so just the normal shot this time.

[Xzylvador]

Wagner should be rolling 15 dice with his Warhawk: Agi 9 + Skill 2 + Spec 2 + Smartgun 2

[SeriousOne338]

The warhawk is a revolver. so no spec. BUt I can re-roll it.

[Xzylvador]

Hm, I figured, since it was a semi-auto, the spec counted... If not, what are the possible specs on the pistols group in your game? Might want to reconsider...

[SeriousOne338]

Semi-auto is a slide action pistol, clip feed. A revolver is a cylinder pistol, thus revolves. If you want to switch specialty sure I can see it.

[Xzylvador]

Sorry, I was mistaking some things... blame Futurama on distracting me!
The semi-auto spec would count on all non-revolver pistols then? On a slivergun, even though it's got BF?

[SeriousOne338]

yes, the silver gun is a Semi-Auto so it would count even on the BF

[vinnmun]

sorry, was at the store when i posted so copy and pasting rolls would have been a huge pain so i bought my rolls for improve reflexes. But I take no damage. Are we bothering to do intitiative come to think of it or are we all getting a free shot in before we roll. I'm just curious, i've never done it this way before. lol
