Unfortunately, I don't think I have anything to help Zilch with the jam attempt.  At a -10 my attempts to assist with Tech-Use will likely hinder more than help.  Best I can offer is Sleepy's anointed toolkit for, er, a relaxing massage?

I'll likely just set up an overwatch for when the door opens.  Post coming sometime today.  I'm not planning on rerolling initiative, either.

Anyone opting to set up overwatch can go ahead and make their to hit rolls as well, since it seems likely that your trigger of viable targets will happen at the same time as they react to the doors opening and the sound of NO explosives going off. ;)

Assuming the tech roll is successful...

Hey every bonus I can get is good.  Combi-tool is just one of many things on my kit wish list.

Unfortunately, there's no stats for the anointed toolkit, but it's standard issue for vehicle regiments so I imagine it's more useful for interfacing with those machines vs electronic warfare.

I hate to put Niner on the spot when life is hell, but seems like her vox operator might have some useful gear or skills.

Thanks, lads! That was some great inter-party conflict between the 'brawn' and the 'brains'.

Also, there are only three (hybrid) targets and they are spaced around the central dais/pedestal, so there's no o reflow on each attack; all hits are applied to one target each. Just in case it makes a difference.

Although I have a cool mental picture of the breach & clear going very much like a SWAT team entry. :)

Edit: grenades can catch two in their radius.

AC, the photon flash has Blast (10) in its stat line. That should be able to hit everyone on/around the dais, no?

Only if you could somehow aim at the middle of the room, which you cannot. The object in the centre is non-porous, to put it bluntly. ;)

So you aim to one side or the other. Or when the doors open you shoot for the rear stairs leading up and catch one hybrid and the lichtor, maybe.

Best cover the children's eyes

Probably just under 4 hours til I can get a post up. Stupid day at work - not tough, just stupid, and a Skype session with the bro coming up in an hour.

I sure hope one of our three newbs can add to the crash-boom-bang effect of you three when you open the door.

In reply to Adeptus Custodes (msg # 32):

*checks damage roll*

Not seeing this "boom" to which you refer :P

I was looking at Zilch's first attempt to jam the demo frequency on the doors. It's a hidden roll but I can still see it. ;)

Yeah my first attempt to jam the remote failed plus four.  The fate point re-roll though was a success plus four.

So it went from spectacular boom to wipe forehead relief.

OK, so the boom we're expecting to hear is just the DJ dropping the bass, then.

Yeah but the fright was real.

If I had failed both chances I’d have either killed or maimed Everest even with his resilient self.

So not a single one failed to get Pinned?  Bummer.

I'm going to assume I can close to PB range with the wounded one; with Sprint I can Full Move 12m and I can still get a shot off.

Without giving too much away...they don't need to test in this room, at this time. ;)

Yes go ahead and smite thy foe.

I'm just...going to hide in my corner for a little bit.

I definitely won't be able to post Sunday night so let's stick with the 2-day cycle for now and I'll post Tomorrow and Monday, weather & work permitting.

Anyone catch the preview of the PC game Gladius yet? I'm on the fence until they add more races to play.

No, hadn't seen it yet.  Still sadly need to get DoW3...

I'm spending way too much time watching cinematic battles from Total War: Warhammer on youtube. I can't figure out why the chaos beastmen always destroy the Empire. Or how the Undead ever get beaten at all. Or how the Dwarves ever win. Maybe I should just buy it and find out for myself.

Hey guys, I am going to have to take a break from the game. I need to spend some time on life right now. Sorry GM, it's been a rocky month so far.

RL is always more important.

Hope that you can take care of what you need to do with a minimum of troubles Holt.

Two-bit, since Ramirez hasn't posted yet and I'm super duper tired from work again, I'll let you decide if you want your overheating gun to do d3-1 or d5-2 percentages of damage to the altar area from overheating. I'll roll it when I get up to do my post, either in the middle of the night or, if I'm lucky, when the sun comes up.

Hold on there, cowboy. I just got home from work and was about to type up my post.

EDIT: Oh wow, Two-Bit. RNGesus must be mad at you for something.
