Conclusion - Times Past

In a strangely animal-like gesture, the bone creature shakes itself violently, as if clearing its head from the effects of its recent injury. With a sudden burst of speed, it surges forward, cha sing after the one who wounded it, swiping at Cooper with one of its long claws as it catches up to the gunfighter.

13:46, Today: The Bone Fiend rolled 26,6 using 1d12-1,1d6-1, rerolling max with rolls of (12+12+3)27,(6+1)7.  Fighting.

13:47, Today: The Bone Fiend rolled 7,8,2 using 1d4,1d10-1,1d6, rerolling max with rolls of (4+3)7,9,2.  Damage.

From his position near the campfire, Murphy watches the melee with hooded eyes, his expression grim.

Well this is what I'd been afraid of. She mused.  But she'd tried, oh Lord how she'd tried.  There was nothing for it but to try to fight out of it.

She thrust, but not at the enemy who was expecting it.

So Double Kay is going to do something stupid by Wild Attacking the ornery critter in her face.

15:26, Today: Kansas Kate rolled 9,3 using d8,d6, rerolling max with rolls of (8+1)9,3.  Fighting.

Because I forgot how numbers work, that is actually an 11 due to WA bonus

15:29, Today: Kansas Kate rolled 5,3,1 using d6+2,d4+1,d6, rerolling max with rolls of 3,2,1.  The Toothpick Stick.

Well, that's a 9, which will do something, but not much because these are undead.  However, it's Shaken, which is enough to do this:

Her ferocity let her plant the blade where a heart would normally be, except it was dead so that did nothing.  However, the sharp jolt seemed to stagger the thing momentarily, and she cut out.

Since I haven't moved yet and it can't do anything while it's Shaken, I'm going to cut across to the space diagonal to Castillo, so the Last Stand bonus will counteract my Wild Attack penalty.

15:33, Today: Kansas Kate drew the single card: 5D using the Deadlands system.

Dr. Wayland skidded a backstep on his bootheels as the dead thing swung in on him, managing to just avoid the claws.  The spear, on the other hand, caught him full in the vest.  Surely that would do for the scientist...  But then it fell away.  This one had surprisingly thick skin.  Or at least a thick vest.

Soaked 1 Wound, which also clears Shaken?

22:41, Today: Dr. Ezekiel Q. Wayland rolled 1,4 using d6,d6, rerolling max with rolls of 1,4.  White Chip - Soak Roll vs. 1 Wound.

Albert shifted his stance slightly and threw his left arm at what seemed like the bone fiend's most aggressive assault. His well-timed (some might say lucky) movement kept him from taking any significant injury.

Tamsin will attempt to soak the wound she received.

14:43, Today: Marshal, on behalf of Tamsin River, rolled 1,4 using 1d6,1d6, rerolling max with rolls of 1,4.  White Chip - Soak Roll.

She succeeds, soaking the wound and doing away with the accompanying shaken condition.

Attempting to fend off the attack of the dead warrior, Tamsin fires a shot at the undead creature, but in the struggle, the shot goes wide.

14:44, Today: Marshal, on behalf of Tamsin River, rolled 3,4 using 1d6,1d6, rerolling max with rolls of 3,4.  Shooting.

15:10, Today: Marshal, on behalf of Tamsin River, drew the single card: 6S using a deck of 54 cards.  Initiative.

Bauer circles Castillo, moving to the scout’s right side while leveling her pistol at the warrior Castillo is struggling with. ”Get off of her,” the deputy snaps, ”Head back to hell where you came from.”

She fires, the shot reducing the walking corpse’s head to scattered fragments.

11:33, Today: Lena Bauer rolled 7,4 using 1d8,1d6, rerolling max with rolls of 7,4.  Shooting.

12:35, Today: Lena Bauer rolled 11 using 2d6+1, rerolling max with rolls of 2,(6+2)8.  Damage.

As the warrior is already shaken, Bauer’s shot will kill it.

Garrett sets his sights on the dead warrior that hurled its spear at Dr. Wayland. Pausing long enough to be certain of his aim, the sheriff squeezes off a shot, blasting a wide hole in the corpse’s chest. The warrior wavers, then collapses in a heap of ash and bone.

12:38, Today: Patrick Garrett rolled 8,3 using 1d10+2,1d6+2, rerolling max with rolls of 6,1.  Shooting.

12:39, Today: Patrick Garrett rolled 9,5 using 2d6+1,1d6, rerolling max with rolls of (6+1)7,1,5.  Damage.

The Kid manages to free his Bowie knife from his belt and bury it in the dead warrior’s shoulder. The attack seems to stun the corpse, but it remains upright, its pale eyes still burning with hatred.

Billy is able to lose the shaken condition.

Dr. Wayland dropped his right hand from his lightning gun, which freed it to go for something more personal.  He dragged the gatling pistol free of the holster, thumbing the catch to release the spring.  He didn't have much room, though and the mechanical pistol chattered away too soon...peppering the ground and uselessly off to the side of the dead thing...

Dr. Wayland gritted his teeth and adjusted the pistol slightly to bring it to bear on the dead thing seeking to enlist him.  His finger never really left the trigger as the machine gun continued to chatter and spit lead.  Now the bullets thunked into the thing...to very little effect...

Autofire without the Multi Action...  Red Chip spend nets two hits.

Both fail to beat Toughness.

Murphy extends his hand, palm up. Shadows gather above it, quickly forming a small sphere of impenetrable darkness. With a snap of his wrist, the cattle baron sends it streaking down the mountainside. In the blink of an eye, it lands at Bauer’s feet and explodes, briefly swallowing up a portion of the battle in a burst of ice cold blackness.

Conclusion - Times Past

The bone monster circles Cooper, its long steps bringing it between the gunslinger and the nearby Ranger Lee. With a wide swing of one of its long, clawed arms, it slashes at both men with a scythe like strike.

The Bone Fiend possesses the Improved Sweep edge, which allows it to target all adjacent foes with a single melee attack.

12:37, Today: The Bone Fiend rolled 2,4 using 1d10-1,1d6-1, rerolling max with rolls of 3,5.  Fighting - Improved Sweep.

That would miss, so the beast is going to burn its last white chip to try for a better result.

12:38, Today: The Bone Fiend rolled 5,18 using 1d10-1,1d6-1, rerolling max with rolls of 6,(6+6+6+1)19.  Fighting - Improved Sweep - White Chip.

12:40, Today: The Bone Fiend rolled 1,6,8 using 1d4,1d10-1,1d6, rerolling max with rolls of 1,7,(6+2)8.  Damage.

Total Damage: 16

The bone fiend’s attack would subject it to Lee’s damage field.

13:29, Today: Marshal, on behalf of Bryan Lee, rolled 10 using 2d8, rerolling max with rolls of (8+1)9,1.  Damage Field.

The resulting damage won’t get past the creature’s toughness.

Amusingly, improved sweep hits everyone adjacent to the user, both friend and foe, so that result will demolish the dead warrior that was shaken by Lee’s damage field. Think the cave troll trying to kill Gimli in The Fellowship of the Ring.

As the bone beast carries through with its swing, its long claws decapitate the dead warrior that had attacked the lawman, the walking corpse’s body dissipating into dust an instant later.

Conclusion - Times Past

The bone fiend's strike caught him unawares, ripping his shirt spilling the first blood on him in this particular fight, though certainly not the first of the day. As he struggled to recover, flailing wildly in his defense, the sweeping attack from the fiendish creature that followed was nearly just as bad.

But Ranger Lee was nothing if not stubborn, and so he gathered his inner reserves of strength, pushing away the emotions that threatened his neutral state, ignoring the pain of his injuries to fight through.

His fists flew at the most potent threat that was there before them, threatening himself, Cooper, and if it survived them the rest of his comrades. He moved with the speed of lightning, and struck with the fury of the storm, as if he was possessed of more than two fists, seeing between seconds, avoiding defensive maneuvers and finding the perfect spot to attack each time.


OOC:

Well, looks like about four wounds between the two attacks. I'll go ahead and spend an Adventure Card on that:

10C - Second Wind
“I’m feeling much better now.”
Play on your hero to automatically remove all wounds sustained in this combat (but not crippling injuries). If Shaken, he is un-Shaken now as well. The Marshal gets to draw 2 random chips from the fate pot.

Let's roll up some Attacks on the big ugly Bone Fiend. I'm gonna make them all Wild, playing a bit risky with that there given the situation, but hoping that a good offense can help here. Between his base attack, the Wing Chun attack, and the Improved Frenzy attack on each of his actions (a la Quickness) hope for some good options here. Including the Ganging Up bonus from another adjacent ally (Coop) after the fact as I forgot to throw it onto the roller:

Attacks: 12, 11, 6, 12, 6, 9

That should be four successes, two of them raises. So time to roll up Damage, which takes into account Strength, Wild Attack, Brawler, Martial Artist, Damage Field, and raise where applicable.

Damages: 19, 26, 36, 24

So that should be:
- Shaken with 2 Wounds
- Shaken with 3 Wounds
- Shaken with 6 Wounds
- Shaken with 3 Wounds

Conclusion - Times Past

As the bone creature tried to injure Albert after doing the same to Bryan, Albert timed a leap perfectly. Pulling his knees toward his chest in mid-air allowed the cowboy to avoid what would surely have been a painful gash.

As the General worked on the bone creature with extraordinary efficiency, Albert turned his weapon on the dedder next to him. His shot was true, the bullet striking with a sickening thud.

Conclusion - Times Past

Cooper’s shot blasts a hole in the corpse’s chest, the warrior collapsing in clatter of dry bones an instant later.



Jacinta, Tamsin, and Kansas Kate: Due to Bryan Lee’s initiative draw, the protective effects offered by the Last Stand card immediately cease.

Initiative Order

AS - Dr. Ezekiel Wayland
10D - L.G. Murphy
10C - The Bone Fiend
8D - Bryan Lee
7S - Albert Cooper
6S - Tamsin River - Holding
6D - Jacinta Castillo
5D - Kansas Kate
2S - Allies (Bauer, Garrett, Billy the Kid)
2C - The Dead

Murphy possesses a Parry of 8 and a Toughness of 12.

The Dead each possess a Parry of 6 and a Toughness of 8.

Señorita Castillo, Murphy’s blast left you shaken with one wound. You are free to make a soak roll.

As a reminder, if you are attempting to shoot an enemy that has engaged you in melee, you will have to make your Shooting roll against their Parry, not the standard target number of 4. Note also that you can only use a pistol to shoot an attacker that has engaged you in melee. Larger firearms like shotguns, rifles, and carbines cannot be fired at an adjacent foe that is making a melee attack.

Note also that should you elect to withdraw from melee combat, an opponent is entitled to a free melee attack against you. You may use the Defend action to add +2 to your Parry, should you choose to withdraw.

As Tamsin has been absent of late, I’ll have her hold her action until near the end of the round.

Señorita Castillo, you have the floor.
