The Second Forumised SLA Industries BPN

Post by **Grimmie** » June 1st, 2009, 10:46

This is so confusing not on skype.
I think I managed to spaz up and shoot the grenade launcher on two, which is when I was meant to be aiming.
If it makes that big a difference I'll save those shots for phase 4 instead?

It doesn't make a whole lot of difference - nothing happened, and by 4 he's magholded it and drawn his claymore, which he now uses to hit Eraser...

... Which he does, just (Eraser's 5 points used to parry stopped him getting extra damage). 4 PEN, 10 DAM, 3 AD

The reason things are confusing is because actions are getting out of phase. That's why I keep asking for people to wait for the correct phase to announce their actions. I understand how it must be frustrating to have to wait, but playing on the forum makes it really confusing for everybody. I think I'll announce phases in big letters to make them easier to spot when spazzing back. If anyone has any suggestions as to what else might make things clearer then please suggest away.

Just waiting on Eraser for 3.

Should I do something on 4, or skip a turn?

HOW ABOUT WAIT!!

Meh, do something by all means. I want the combat over now.

*Makes a note to put shorter combats in*

Very this.

I think that's such a good idea, I'm going to start doing it in the SR thread too, when combat starts.

If I'm right, he hit me for 6 and I have 6 points of ID left...

Hitting with chainaxe with a 5/5 skill split again:

10+8+5(skill)-1(wound)=22

Soo, before any mods he has, thats 11 damage, 4 pen, 3ad on him...

Post by **Dog Pants** » June 1st, 2009, 16:46

No other modifiers. That seems to do some damage.

Phase 4

Shooter starts to run.
Big guy swings at Eraser.

The Shutting Downs · Post by **The Shutting Downs** » June 1st, 2009, 16:49

Skill split again 5/5

8+2+5(skill)-1(wound)=14

10 more damage pls...

Assuming I've reached Phoebe, I'll inject the Kick Start+.

The big guy hits Eraser again, 4 PEN, 10 DAM, 3 AD.

To keep it clear, here is my Phys roll again for phase 4.

Phys (10) 2+4 = 16

What is it with our Stormers always getting their armor destroyed on their first BPN? Anyone else doing anything on 4?

The Shutting Downs · Post by **The Shutting Downs** » June 2nd, 2009, 6:23

I still have 6 armour points left...

Post by **Dog Pants** » June 2nd, 2009, 9:22

Just Grimmie to go I think.

Post by **Grimmie** » June 2nd, 2009, 12:43

Okay, I'll change aim to the fleeing shooter, headshot.

Post by **Dog Pants** » June 2nd, 2009, 14:04

Righty ho.

Phase 5

Shooter keeps running
Big guy keeps swinging
Grimmie brings to bear

Post by **deject** » June 2nd, 2009, 14:15

I will take off after the runner.

punkchuck · Post by **punkchuck** » June 2nd, 2009, 14:22

ON FIVE Phoebe will just lay here until the kick start begins to work.

Post by **Grimmie** » June 2nd, 2009, 14:25

Bwuh, I thought you were asking what I wanted to do on four - which was change my target, not lift my gun up again on five?
