Vicsis attempts to shoot the pursuing scrubbots with her multicorder. While she does indeed get in some great shots of the harrowing chase, it takes her a moment to realize that this isn't, in fact, her gun and it won't shoot anything at all, much less laser blasts.

It doesn't even come with some sort of flame thrower. Obviously R&D has been a bit lazy lately.

Now that she's gotten that straightened out, she whips out her gun and starts firing behind her at the insane robots, while trying to dodge the crowd.

CL takes the flock of discs in a pattern to dodge the citizens!

CL manages to stay in the lead.  Dexter stays in second place.  Ginger gets up to third place, and Rob gets up to fourth.  Vixcis gets in fifth, and Marco and Gunther end up last.

Ginger misses the scrubots, but Vicsis brings one down with her shot.

1 Scrubot attacks Gunther.  He is snafued!  (Gunther cannot use perversity points next round.)

ROUND 2

After navigating through the crowd, you pass to the nearby road.  The flock attempts to merge with traffic, but initially starts out in the oncoming lane.


Guide chooses (1) jump the group over the divider to the correct side (Violence/Agility) or (2) quickly hotwire his transition into dealing with head on autocars (Software/Vehicle Programming).

Perversity Points:

OOC:  Please make sure:

(1) to post any rolls you make in a Private Line so that others can use perversity points for or against you without seeing your roll first.  Otherwise, I will have to reroll for you.

(2) If you want to use perversity points on your own roll, please make two posts: the first will be a PL regarding your use of perversity points.  The second one, which should have a time stamp after your first post, will have your actual roll in it.  Otherwise, I will have to reroll for you.

(As another option, you can use your special thread or a PM instead of posting it in the public forum as two posts, but the timing sequence should be the same.  This only counts for those using PP for their own rolls...since PP must be given up before the rolls.)

As the agents behind deal with the pesky bots, Rob tries to manuever for a better spot, one where he can take aim and fire without fear of the bots retaliating.

Gunther Attempts to fly away.

FYI, almost everyone in Round 1 rolled under a 10!

Ginger pulls out her recently purchased self-aiming slugthrower and fires it at the robots.

Waiting on moves from CL, Dexter and Vicsis

Dexter stays focused on flying.

CL keeps zooming away from the scrubbots.

CL, You're the guide so you have to pick one of the following two options:

Guide chooses (1) jump the group over the divider to the correct side (Violence/Agility) or (2) quickly hotwire his transition into dealing with head on autocars (Software/Vehicle Programming).

Vicsis keeps on flying. She also keeps on shooting behind her, hoping to score another hit on a scrubbot.

OOC: I've had a bad cold this week.  Slow on posting.  Sorry.

Rob takes the lead!  CL falls back to second.  Vicsis moves up to third just behind.  She fires at the scrubots...but misses.  Gunther moves into fourth place, and Ginger into fifth.  Ginger fires...and hits Gunther accidentally when her auto-aiming slugthrower moves in that direction.  (Gunther is snafued and cannot use PP the next round.) Dexter falls way back to second to last.  Only Marco falls back further (with a roll of 1).


The scrubots attack!  Dexter is snafued and cannot use PP next round.  Marco...is maimed.  He falls off his disc and soon is overcome by angry scrubots.  Marco is no more, and you wonder if he has a clone out there somewhere.  No matter.  The chase is on!

ROUND 3

The group jumps over the divider and begins moving in the correct lane with traffic.

But after only moments, a gang of Death Leopards, also on Transition Discs, slide up to engage your group.  They apparently want to mix it up with you road-warrior style


Guide (Rob) chooses (1) engage in Transition vs. Transition slamming (Violence/Vehicular) or (2) scare them into backing off (management/ intimidation).

OOC: Remember the sequence.  If you want to use PP, post twice.  First post will include what you want to use PP on, if anything, and must PRECEDE your dice roll.

Second post is your action, result of dice roller, and please list your skill level in violence/vehicular and management/intimidation.  (If posted after Rob chooses, just the applicable skill level is fine.).  Also, pick what you want to do for your "Action" this round (should have previously posted if any PP's go to boost this).

Gunther under pure desperation hurls a grenade at the scrubots.

"My Armed forces training allows me to know how to handle this..."

Ginger sighs.  "Should we engage in Transition slamming?  I'm not good at scaring people.  Or maybe we shouldn't..."  As always, she appears indecisive, but not so indecisive that she doesn't fire at the scrubots!

Rob zomms his way tot he front, manuerving past the other agents. When the gang arrives he says, "You like road warrior? Let's do this!" He rams one of them violently with his disk.

<red>OOC: 12:41, Sat 27 Sept: Rob-R-JBS-2 rolled 18 using 1d20. FLying!.
12:42, Sat 27 Sept: Rob-R-JBS-2 rolled 2 using 1d20. Bash Other Diskers (Violence 9).

To his horror, Dexter falls behind the group.  With desperation, he does everything he can to get back in front.

Waiting on Vicsis and CL.

Rob engages the group in transition vs. transition slamming!

Gunther throws a grenade, but the slamming causes it to "accidentally" fly toward Ginger!  It explodes...and Ginger is MAIMED.  Ginger falls off the transition and is soon devoured by crazed scrubots.  Ginger is out of the game for the rest of the scene.
(My count is 2 scrubots down and 2 players down, including Marco.  That reduces the total rounds here to 8.)

Rob stays in the lead, with Dexter just behind him.  Gunther moves to third, followed by CL and then Vicsis in last.

The robots attack CL and Vicsis...and...[dang they got lucky rolls]...both are missed by the scrubots miraculously!

ROUND 4

Rob's tactics scare off the road warriors and you press forward, reduced to only 5 in your party now.  The scrubots are getting closer, it seems, catching up, and you go faster and faster and...

...uh oh, you hear a siren from somewhere behind you.  It's an Internal Security hover patroller, on its way, no doubt, to catch evildoers!  Traffic begins to make way for it.


Guide (Rob) chooses (1) brazenly pretend to be escorting it (Management/Chutzpah) or (2) slip in right behind to follow in its wake (Stealth/Shadowing).

OOC: Remember the sequence.  If you want to use PP, post twice.  First post will include what you want to use PP on, if anything, and must PRECEDE your dice roll.

Second post is your action, result of dice roller, and please list your skill level in violence/vehicular and management/intimidation.  (If posted after Rob chooses, just the applicable skill level is fine.).  Also, pick what you want to do for your "Action" this round (should have previously posted if any PP's go to boost this).

You can also use PP to reduce the chance of robots hitting you in case you fall behind in the group (these PP will not be subtracted unless you actually fall to the last two in the group).

Perversity Points:

Gunther keeps on flying seeing that his grenade missed its mark he hurls another at the chasing scrubbots.

Rob looks confident as he knocks the sleazy gang away, leading the pack with pride. Then the sound of the security squad hits his ears. He thinks fast, he waves his group to either side of the security brigade speaking to the leader as he passes by. "Sir, it would be my squad's honor to provide you an excellent escort to your pressing need. The Security Force is so important, this escort would provide the type of treatment you deserve.  Anyone seeing you with an escort will be instilled with a great sense of awe in seeing how important you all are!"

Dexter focuses on getting to the front of the pack, zipping past Rob-R.

Okay, so again we are waiting on CL and Vicsis.  I hope they're still with us...or they may not be for long.  :)

I'll give them a day or so.  I remember Vicsis said she had computer problems.

Secret

CL tries his best to speed ahead of the others, trying to make sure that his back was not consumed by scrubbots.
