What's the distance to the nearest ship at this point? We're in guns range but they tend to outrange what the choir and I can manifest.

If the Void Shields are an option, I say let's drop their shields for now.

I think it's 10 Void Units.

No lie. I have no idea what I should be doing...

I think I skipped over the Battle Fleet Gothic portion of the book.

Re: The Wardroom: Out of Character (OoC)

Page 217 in Da Book of Rules has a list of actions we can take as crew members. There's only a few that I might be useful for, but I missed them as well this first round.

At this stage in the fight, Holt, folks like you and me are mostly flavour in a fight :)

Re: The Wardroom: Out of Character (OoC)

A catch all I believe is using Command for the Put your backs into it! action, which can grant a +10 to a roll.  Useful for the Helmsman.

Tech use to scan for Components, increase the ship's functionality (+10 to some rolls), Medicae to reduce crew damage, etc.

Re: The Wardroom: Out of Character (OoC)

Debating if it I risk it myself... but they are close enough at 10 VU I can possibly start messing with their gunnery teams perceptions of reality lol. Granted... the action is at a -30... Leaving me with a grand ol' 20% chance to do it.

Keeping in mind this all has to be done at the unfettered power level and invite all the fun of that for... -5 to their next BS test per degree of success.

I think we're waiting on the boss. If I remember rightly, RL has stuck it's oar in & slowed them down for a while.

Re: The Wardroom: Out of Character (OoC)

Based on the captain's command for Sebastion, would it be better to Lock on Target, which can give a bonus on future shots, or do a focused Augur Array, which can list the ship components of the enemy ship?  It's the same roll for me either way, with different results potentially.

Re: The Wardroom: Out of Character (OoC)

Personally, I would suggest Augur Array

Glad to see things are going again. :)

Sadly, still on stand by for the most part as the ship fight plays out.

We'll buy you a force weapon at the next port and you can come with Searlait on a boarding party.

Any chance I can use Fel, since I'm trying to convince them to surrender & (maybe) live?

I'm... Average at melee. 30 WS, 30 BS. Suppose I'll have to work on that. The only time Aline ever stabbed anyone was when they were sleeping lol.

Thats why you keep near the arms mistress with the big scary hammer and scarier attitude.

I'd say that's the best time to stab them...

No, that's still an Intimidation attempt.

Re: The Wardroom: Out of Character (OoC)

What's the consensus folks, do we push for a boarding action & risk damage to the Kiss but with potential for a bigger payout or tell them to bugger off, less risk of damage & claim what's left of the wreck as spoils of war?
