No pressure / worries!  Just doing everything I can to not die ;)

Forim - Ayup! :-) I'm happy to be clueless.

As for blinding their sensors. I believed that is what I was doing in my earlier post.  I can roll computers again though! :-)  Suggestions?

In reply to Forim Luk (msg # 231):



I'm happy to shot or use computers to boost shields or try to block their coms.

[Private to GM: GM, I'm confused.  Forim Luk's Bio Says GM.  I thought you were NPCing Forim, but many of these conversations leads me to believe otherwise.  If you aren't, you may want to go and edit the character so it shows as a player.]

Because there may be some confusion:

Recently I changed Forim's player to have GM access. One of his RL friends is playing Roger, but that player is temporarily indisposed. Forim is helping Roger's player by running his character for a short time.

Forim has no idea what sort of plot we're doing. He is not taking advantage of his position. If he does I will make him play an Ewok.

Yub Yub commander.

Forim do we have a plan for this round? I.e. Should us gunners wait for you to activate your piloty goodness before firing, or should we shoot now and ask for directions outta here later?

Sorry.  I'll get one up tonight.  I plan on making life easy for you to shoot so worth waiting

Yeah, sorry folks, was out of city all weekend, then out of province the past three days.  Still plenty busy, but I'll try to keep up!

Is it 3D to target the ties due to size diff, or is there any upgrades to C due to the asteroids?...

2D 1S is the difficulty to shoot those ties.  Upgraded twice.

Thanks skipper

Great Shot!  And, as an added benefit (if I remember correctly) the more mooks you kill in a mook squad, the less skilled that squad becomes.  That means they should start crashing if we can blow up enough this round!

Well it helps when you remember to add the upgrades given by a gifted pilot. I proper messed up on the first round ;)

Indeed.  4P is a nice pool indeed :)

I don't have skill in gunnery, 3A, so do I get 2P 1A then?

Yep!

Questions to GM:

1. They should be at 2D difficulty shooting us?  It is based on relative silhouette, not distance.
2. Do they not need to make a piloting check, to avoid getting smashed to pieces in the asteriod?

They got a downgraded difficulty because of the computer hacking attempt.

thwy probably do need to make such a check. I'll get to it now.

Ahh, that would do it!  *shakes fist at roger*

Side note, Did he make it harder for them to pilot with his slicing attempt?  Just curious what effect that had.

I removed their soak for the shots this turn. He was trying to reduce their defence, but TIEs don't have shields so I took away their armour instead.

Additional note, can we assume our mechanics have been making repairs for the fight?  They have been quiet and not posting.

I was assuming that the GM was traking our damage, but decided to go back and figure out what it was, as I thought we were getting low.

We are currently at -3 HT :P  We may or may not have just blown up.

Did Xyklo's crit kill an additional mook?

Doing everything I can to see if more ships get blown up so that last shot _might_ miss :P

ah, I see. okay, it's not unreasonable to have 'Hypno,' who I really wish you guys would rename, doing repairs.

You are at 1 HP.

Yes, the crit knocked out an extra fighter. I already took that into account.

I think evasive maneuvers increases the difficulty of gunnery checks, doesn't it? makes it harder to shoot you and harder for you to shoot?

Unless you have Gained the Advantage, which ignores those penalties :)

now see, I knew that, but I thought maybe some others didn't and didn't want to ask.
