Nope my fault I started giving you one. As well it seems like we are in combat now.

In reply to Jason Sinclair (msg # 800):

Posse:

1) Combat map is updated. You must tell me where you're going! For example, you drove 2 vehicles into the orchard, but I never got a clear sense where they were going or the path they were taking which was, well, kinda confusing.

2) There is 1 guy in front of Jane (Smoker can see him) and 2 off to her left. I assume she fired about 20 rounds on the way in (2-3 bursts to each side).

3) You don't need to post a tac-bloc (that is, the little summary) for your combat post. That said, if you don't I'll have to try and figure out what you mean... which could be dodgy. For example, if you get several actions in a turn (which is likely!) make sure to take them or they are lost (except for 1 held action).

roadkill was following the way to the hostages on that path in the map. He did want to get the truck near the shack so the hostages could get into the truck quicker

In reply to Roadkill (msg # 802):

That's the route I'd take in general. Getting closer would mean catching some branches and running over some bikes, neither of which is necessarily a big problem for an armoured rig.

Tony

In reply to The Marshall (msg # 803):

I had to. I just had to do it. I feel the damned cheese dripping off of my hands after typing that but I had too.

 That was the idea from way back. He was all about saving the hostages and letting Jason and Trejo deal with the big bad man. Another thing, i posted before that smoker was to cover Daphne on the ground and roadkill was staying in the truck shooting out windows until he needed to get out if Daphne needed shot gun help. The truck is all about its selfish plan from when we were back at the templars place

In reply to Roadkill (msg # 805):

Jason is so hard core. Big ass breeches that Roadkill would be impressed by. being that Roadkill has breeches.

That's right, freakin' leather breeches!

You know, it's a crying shame that Roadkill can't actually see Jason at the moment due to the smoke and the intervening vehicles.

Important: I forgot to say that not only is there 1 biker immediately in front of you, there are another 2 standing behind him. (Can everyone see the map? It's on the map.)

Sullivan is NPCd and has Rowan's borrowed M260 GPMG, so he will light them up using that. Smoker has the M249 he recovered from the hangar on a post mount. Plus Jane. So the 3 bikers have a heavy MG (the ma-deuce), a GPMG (M260) and a SAW shooting at them, quite unfair!



This could be a Bluff, Overawe and/or Taunt. I will definitely give you a Red chip for playing Big Britches in such a quasi-suicidal manner befitting the Texas Rangers.

In theory this takes 3 actions but I'll let you make all three attempts at once. Roll good or, frankly, he's going to take Jason apart like a cheap suit! He's not a Big Bad for nothin'.

Still had to do it. Man did I ever have to do it. Seemed right. Anyway if he dies no one will forget that speech. If he doesn't it will be even more epic. I had a laugh typing that.

In reply to Jason Sinclair (msg # 808):

Posse,

Sorry for getting distracted!

I'm getting back in the groove, so expect a post shortly to move things along.

Added: I rolled Smoker's Quickness, he rolled serious aces and got 28.

No worries, and yikes glad he's on our side! lol

Thank you, Marshal.

In reply to Smoker Nix (msg # 812):

My pleasure!

1) Need new Quickness rolls from Smoker and Roadkill, plus Actions for everyone.

2) Jane drew the Black Joker, sorry, lost her turn. She freezes, whatever.

3) Make sure you indicate you are holding an Action, if possible. If not, you won't be. Remember, sleeving a card (holding an Action) is the only way to Dodge an attack.

Tony

In reply to The Marshall (msg # 813):

I'm sure she'll blame the freeze on something.

In reply to Jane Guin (msg # 814):

Rk will ave eld one card but joker would have negated that i guess?

In reply to Roadkill (msg # 815):

Wait a minute: RK was outside the truck, with Daphne. He's re-mounting? Doing so and then starting the truck moving is 2 actions, so he won't have a Hole Card.

Either way, the Black Joker only affects Jane, so previously held cards or current Hole Cards for other players are safe.

As far as I know, I'm still in my usual perch on top of the rig and ready to take potshots at any Bad Guy that comes too close... or who threatens Daphne.

In reply to Roadkill (msg # 817):

It seemed like you wanted RK to get out, so he did. If you feel I could have somehow read your mind better, guilty as charged!

He can get back in, and we may proceed with that in mine, no harm no foul.

Tony

In reply to The Marshall (msg # 819):

Not a problem. Jumps back in. Makes the situation more dynamic. It is all on in the orchard

In reply to Roadkill (msg # 820):

A rig is not especially manoeuverable, especially in close quarters. I naturally assume RK is not attempting to avoid running over the motorcycle parked in front of him!

Once you're close to the shack things could get a little dicey! This is summed up in the elegantly titled song by the Willis Brothers:

"Give me Forty Acres (and I'll Turn This Rig Around)"

Tony

Question: Can I swing down from my perch and get in through the passenger door behind Modeen?

In reply to Smoker Nix (msg # 822):

You bet! It would require a roll of some kind, natch.

I changed my post a little; I realise that you all probably had actions held from previous turns, which you can use to move now (spend the held action to move up your initiative, per house rules). From now on, no one is assumed to have a held action unless stated clearly in their post.

Also, be advised I'm doing a post for the Destroyers, so just hang on a minute if you want to see what they're doing.

Tony

Then I shall.... gathering a piece of wire as I go (think garotte...)

Please tell me what I need to roll & I'll scamper off to the die roller forthwith.
