Barely stung by the energy blast Red Sledgehammer looks over the other combatants. The big amorphous thing is at distance and the cat-man is jumping, dipping, and dodging like no-one's business. That leaves the pale woman with the strange colored hand which stands before him brazenly. He punches out with his massive, knobbed right fist and catches her squarely. Even rolling with the blow as best she can it is obvious she took a massive blow although it doesn't seem to register on her face. The impact of his fist sends her first flying then tumbling to the north, coming to rest about 50 feet away.

A few moments later a shot rings out from far to the south, catching Onyx squarely in the side and spinning him around in the air. Anyone who looks in the direction of the shot is barely able to see a cowled figure appear at a long distance from the fray.

OOC: Amaranth is punched for 24 damage, 10 of which is rolled into power (-10 power) and the remaining 14 points into hit points (-14 hp). The massive blow knocks her back 11" (14 damage -3 for Basic Hits), dealing another 2 points of damage which easily rolls into power since she is sent tumbling instead of into a wall. Onyx is shot for 11 damage, all of which goes into hit points (-11 hp). Power and hit points adjusted for both.

The Inhuman 1

10:11, Today: The Inhuman rolled 4 using 1d20 with rolls of 4. attack.
10:11, Today: The Inhuman rolled 31 using 4d10 with rolls of 9,10,10,2. damage.
10:35, Today: The Inhuman rolled 4 using 1d6 with rolls of 4. Maul damage
36 points


Seeing Amaranth down, the Inhuman launches himself at Red Sledgehammer.

"How about picking on some one your own size bub?"

Using his own elastic properties, the Inhuman flies at the Russian at a fantastic speed as he delivers a massive blow with his own maul like fist.

Oscillator likely spotted the sniper & moves in.

He decides to give the guy/gal a lift -- say 100" upwards, with a hefty shake to drop any gear....?

"Shoot me and the fall will be quick, comrade."

Oscillator rolled 18 using 1d20 --  Hth. <-- grab?   Dunno that succeeded
Oscillator rolled 10 using 1d20 -- Give snipe a lift. <-- carry depends on grab...?
 

Oscillator spots the sniper across the long distance and flies at speed to him. He attempts to tackle the sniper in an effort to take him for a ride but passes right through him. He recognizes the sniper who waves at him as he passes through.

The Inhuman shifts his form to move outside and confront the Russian behemoth, swinging a mace-shaped fist at him. The Russian interposes the jeep between them, catching the blow on it squarely. The strength of the blow smashes the front of the jeep; causing the hood, bumper, and engine to drop to the ground in a tangled mess. The Russian looks at the mangled jeep and smiles, then takes a quick look around the area before meeting The Inhuman's eyes; "Khorosho, teper davayte tantsevat!"


OOC: Aaaaaand that's the turn.....power updated as needed.

Depositing the second injured soldier she'd rescued to safety, Vosper glanced back.  This wasn't looking good.  The giant Sta-Puf Muldoon was going head-to-head with Captain Commie, but there were snipers out there and they were making a bloody mess of her team.

Osc had called the ball to rescue the downed troops, and she was good at that, but it didn't make sense to do so while the rest of them were getting cut to pieces.  There were four more left, and that was about twice as many as she figured she had time for.

Sorry, lads, she thought, hoping they could hold out until the fight was over - and that they didn't get a truck dropped on them where they lay.

"Get those bloody snipers!" she called to Osc and Onyx.  Then, blurring forward, she ran towards the towering Russian, replying, "Vy vse khochu tantsevat'. No u vas yest' dve levykh nogi, durak."

(Move towards Sledge, set up evasion!)

You keep wanting to dance.  But you have two left feet, idiot/bully.

Note: OSC is not listed in INIT chart.
Please add me?  Thanks!

OOC: Sorry Ossy, I accidentally put Nightmare's name into your slots as well as his. Fixed now.

Vos was moving to get the soldiery out of harms way; and maybe Ossy and Onyx were moving to find and remove the snipers.

With The Inhuman, it was Eddy's job to drop this tank.

But with the snipers still in position, Eddy wasn't taking any chances.
He moved quickly and evasively to make himself a harder target.

Evade

Dialogue only

Muldoon knew that as the Inhuman he could take a beating, he knew that that sniper out there could take out his team if they could not take him out. That meant that the Inhuman needed to keep the Russian Tank busy and free the others enough to find and kill the sniper. "This ain't the Bolshoi Ivan .." The Inhuman replied pronouncing the name in the Russian style. ".. you might end up with more than sore feet."

Vosper zig-zags towards the towering Russian at speed, taunting him and causing him to glance over in her direction for a moment.

Poco continues to dip and dodge, moving erratically while trying to position himself to attack the red menace.

The Inhuman likewise taunts the giant, causing him to grin widely but that grin is not matched in his eyes.

Away from the main battle, the unknown sniper who Oscillator has now recognized as Shroud, raises his rifle and takes a shot at Oscillator but it goes wide with his erratic flight. Shrugging, Shroud waves at Oscillator then vanishes from his sight.

OOC: The next group is up for actions. Everyone involved in the main battle make a Int save with a -4 to the target number because of being engaged in combat. Oscillator you can make an Int save with no penalty.

   Onyx, again, begins zig zagging in an attempt to making himself more difficult to actually hit. He also looked for cover.

   Though it didnt seem to help with the sniper.

Eddy launched at the big Russian's face and throat as the man turned to track Vosper ... a snarling, leaping slash that concluded with Eddy coming to his feet from a combat roll sever al meters away.


note: evade is 11 this turn.

- rolled 7 using 1d20 with rolls of 7. Int Save:  Need at 6 or less.

- rolled 5 using 1d20 with rolls of 5. Attack:  +12 bonus to hit.
-  rolled 24 using 2d10+10 with rolls of 4,10. Damage.

Failing to find any unusual handles by which the big red man could be brought down, and continuing to assume this was the main objective, Nightmare backs off ten yards, pulls his shotgun and attempts to shoot the Red Sledgehammer in the back of the head.

OOC: total +12 to hit without facing modifiers
22:56, Today: Nightmare rolled 27 using 2d20 with rolls of 11,16. special attack to shoot the head.
22:58, Today: Nightmare rolled 7 using 2d6 with rolls of 3,4. shotgun damage.

Weaving her way towards the towering Ivan, the slender Brit spun and sent a dart his way.


22:28, Today: Vosper rolled 15 using 1d20 with rolls of 15. Throwing dart, HTH +10 to hit.

22:30, Today: Vosper rolled 10 using 2d8+1 with rolls of 6,3. Velocity damage.

22:30, Today: Vosper rolled 1 using 1d6 with rolls of 1. HTH damage.

22:26, Today: Vosper rolled 1 using 1d20 with rolls of 1. Int Save.

2 PR spent for 2nd action.

'Where has he gone to?' muses Oscillator.

OOC:  No actions for awhile, so seems like a good time to muse.
Musing does not take an action!!!   :)

OOC: PM

Vosper zig-zags across the distance and goes into a spin, launching a dart at high velocity which the Russian is able to catch on his jeep-shield although it punches in deeply.

Poco looks to take advantage of the momentary distraction and leaps past the man, slashing at him with his claws. He as able to get the jeep in position at the last second and Poco's claws tear out several large pieces of metal.

Nightmare positions himself for a shot, being unseen by the villain. As he aims and squeezes the trigger the Russian seems to notice something at the last moment. He jerks his head just out of the line of fire and the shot goes over his head.

Onyx looks around to try and spot the sniper and sets himself to flying in erratic patterns to try and throw off anyone's aim.

Red Sledgehammer steps back and slightly sideways to get his back to the wall of the building, working to keep the group at his front and flanks. He stays up on his toes and brings the jeep-shield into blocking position once more. His voice booms out with extreme volume; "Savan, koshka i zhenshchina ne budet stoyat na meste , zamedlit ikh!"

OOC: Oscillator is up. Updated power scores where needed.

Oscillator uses his enhanced senses to get a location on Shroud and take him out -- or at least, take his equipment out.

"Villain, will you hide like the sniveling coward you are, or will you face me?"

Several people spot Shroud far north of the battle and Oscillator zooms across the distance, taunting the villain and trying to fly through him but the speed and distance travelled affect his aim and he passes to Shroud's left.

Shroud looks back at Oscillator for a moment and smirks then raises his rifle and sights in on Poco. He sends his shot which strikes Poco squarely but is stopped by the vest. An instant later Shroud vanishes again...

OOC: Poco takes 10 damage from a rifle shot, all 10 of which is rolled into power (updated power score). The next group of people is go. Also, everyone to please repeat the Int saves at -4 for anyone concentrating on Big Red and at normal for those who are seeking Shroud.

As the Inhuman attacked the Sledgehammer, so too did Eddy.


- rolled 15 using 1d20 with rolls of 15. Int check: need 6 or less.

- rolled 15 using 1d20 with rolls of 15. Attack:  +12 bonus.
- rolled 30 using 2d10+10 with rolls of 10,10. Damage.

PR updated for damage and third action

   Onyx zig-zagged, eyes moving, looking for the Shroud to re-appear.

   He was oddly quiet, his focus complete.

OOC: hold turn.  Waiting to see if Shroud shows up again.

19:28, Today: The Inhuman rolled 15 using 1d20 with rolls of 15. Int.

The Inhuman, having picked his foe, loses track of the teleporter. slams another mace like blow. The Russian is tough but is in a bad position, but he was tough and not to be underestimated.



17:12, Today: The Inhuman rolled 2 using 1d20 with rolls of 2. attack. +3 for weapon
17:13, Today: The Inhuman rolled 4 using 1d6 with rolls of 4. damage.
17:13, Today: The Inhuman rolled 19 using 4d10 with rolls of 5,5,6,3. damage.
24 damage

Frustrated, Oscillator will make his way back to the hostilities.  He has an idea for taking out the Red Giant.
"You are a coward, Shroud!" he shouts, the villain unseen.
