Turn 3 Slow
The Hakshan Investigator did a rolling dive then scrabbled for cover.
Looked almost identical to the move Dusty had made previously when he has "almost died".

I missed where Bolt moved up to shoot around the corner.
As you can see in this picture,

Bolt is back at the edge of the wall and the equipment extends out in front a ways.

If it is necessary for B to take a step before shooting then he does. I didn't realize that it was necessary but it doesn't change anything.

"B to take a step before shooting"
The question is a step to where? I will assume at the edge of the equipment.
Basically point blank range?
Obviously knowing you will hit makes that acceptable but, unlikely otherwise.

In reply to Oracle (msg # 63):

I don't understand what you are saying. I thought B could shoot from behind the wall at a range of more than 3" but less than 6". Turns out that B must move to behind the shelving unit and shoot at a range of more than 3" but less than 6". Where is the change? B is still shooting from cover and therefore none of the to hit numbers change.

My point is, where is Bolt at the end of the Quick Phase?
They can't be back at the edge of the wall because they can't see to shoot from there.

In reply to Oracle (msg # 65):

Correct, B must be just behind the corner of the shelving unit having just fired at "big bad" from the cover it provided. From this picture (https://i.imgur.com/H2iy3xH.jpg) it appears that B can fire from the corner of the wall, but with the shelving actually extending beyond the wall B must move about 2" east and fire from the cover of the shelving unit instead of the cover of the wall.

My concern is that if Bolt moves east closer to the HI, they they are between Dusty and it.
If Bolt moves south to the edge of the shelving, then Dusty is between.
There can't be a shot taken with a crew member in the way.
If the shots have to be changed, then rerolls should be done.

In this one case, because of the location confusion, the reroll can be skipped and we will assume Bolt moved up to point blank on the HI and Dusty didn't fire.

I'll update the move after work.

3 successes

B 1"E + 3"N + 2"E

S Picks up special and then 2"N

D 1"N + 3"E + 2"N

Didn't actually say it but intended for Y to angle slightly N, heading for passage between box and wall, putting him 1"N of where he is shown

K moves NNE as far as possible, heading for the opening

Y is right behind K, stopping just long enough to see if the big bad is dead and if he has anything worth taking
