GM Heath:
Does he throw the grenade?


No. Seeing the tanks, Yag instead attempts to rush into the room with Baralou before the door closes.

Re: Bugs In The System 1-12

Desiraye remembers what a bonus it is from her military days of having a skeinsuit on for times like these.  Her attention now goes to the 'regular' maintenance robot that just attacked her and fires another [2] shots from her laser rifle too.  "OH!  YOU WANT SOME TOO HUH?"

S'Krllk flops through the door onto the floor in the tank room. Whether his consciousness is questionable, or his sanity, is anybody's guess.

Seeing Sergi in immediate danger Kri'lik steps close to the ice cutting robot and fires his laser pistol twice at close range. Hopefully he can save the brave man.

Re: Bugs In The System 1-12

ROUND 4
Desi hits the maintenance robot once.  (46 dmg. 64/100 remaining)

Sergi and Kri'lik both hit the ice cutter robot once.  (70 total dmg.  430/500 remaining.)  The ice cutter robot is much larger and more heavy duty than the other robots, due to its need to work in the void.  Its laser torch makes it extremely dangerous.  Without its laser torch, it it does much less damage.

Sergi tries getting up to escape into the sickbay.  However, the gorilla robot makes a grapple and trips Sergi onto the ground.

The ice cutter robot attacks...and hits Sergi.  (OOC:  This was a very, very close call, landing exactly on the the "to hit" number, but I had to give it to the robot to be fair.)  The laser cutter cuts through Sergi's body like a knife through butter, severing him in half.  (136 dmg.)  Sergi is dead.

The maintenance robot attacks Desi, hitting her square in the face with its metal fist.  (12 dmg.)

The engine robot approaches to attack Desi.  It swings its radioactive tank at Desi but misses by a long shot.  (But Desi is still -1 due to radiation damage.  Kri'lik is also now close enough to take -1 damage due to radiation.)

Kuurn steps up next to Kri'lik and fires at the maintenance robot.  Unfortunately, both shots go wide.


Yag rushes into the room with Baralou, and S'Krllk flops through the door, aiming his needler at the tanks.

The lights have all been turned off, and Baralou is no longer by the door.  This should have been a clue, but Yag immediately realizes his mistake.

At ground level, there is a quick beeping sound.  Yag looks down in time to see a trip mine, its invisible laser sight having just been crossed by Yag's foot.

It explodes from several feet away.  Luckily, Yag is on edge and alert, and he dodges, minimizing its damage.  (Yag made his reaction check.  He takes half damage:  27 dmg same type dmg as frag grenade.)  S'Krllk is also within the blast radius.  He too is able to roll and make the wall take most of the impact.  (Reaction check made. Damage: 12 STA.)

NOTE: Yag is down to just 8 STA left!

S'Krllk fires, but the blast has thrown off his aim, and his needler harmlessly hits the ceiling. 

The tanks seem damaged by the triplaser explosion, but luckily it was toward the southeast, and they do not seem damaged.  However, the main computers took a beating from the explosion and may require work.

Yag and S'Krllk are now in the room with Baralou.  Yag sees a figure in the eastern corner crouching.  It has a deceptively Yazirian shape, but he knows it is a robot under there.  In the darkness, he sees a slight glint of light off of what must be a gun.

OOC: Since Yag did not post what he will do if he finds Baralou, there will be a standoff at the next round.  Baralou is in the far eastern corner, about 15 feet away from Yag.

Re: Bugs In The System 1-12

Sergi looks down at his severed body.  His hands grope to put his intestines back in his upper half.  Then he leans back, mutters, "No, not like this," and dies.

Desi catches a glimpse and the scream from Sergi being cut in half by the robot with the torch (if there was a scream) out of the corner of her eye and she turns her attention to the robot who just hit her in the face with its cold, metallic fist.  Her intention is to finish off the first maintenance robot (64 DAM remaining) and then probably go after the one swinging the radioactive tank at her.

If she can finish off the first tobot with one [10] SEU shot, she would like to save the 2nd [10] SEU shot for the other maint. robot.

Re: Bugs In The System 1-12

OOC: I haven't been strict about it -- or maybe too lazy to keep track -- but please keep in mind that if you empty a clip by using all the SEU, it takes one round to replace it.  The purpose of this is to prevent always using the highest setting and getting maximum damage.

Re: Bugs In The System 1-12

Yag does his best to shrug off the blast and tries to roll to a position with some cover. Bringing his gyrojet pistol up he squeezes off two shots at Baralou. He curses as both miss.

After firing he growls in to his chronocom: "Desi! What's going on over there? S'Krllk and I have Baralou cornered but I don't think we have the firepower to take it down."

16:22, Today: Yagrith rolled 88 using 1d100. yag shot #1.
16:22, Today: Yagrith rolled 64 using 1d100. Yag shot #2.


Base to hit with gyrojet: 48
STA: 22
Skeinsut STA left: 14

"NO!!!" Yells the Doc as Sergi is cut in half and dies. He then fires two more laser shots from his pistol at the icebot (or another if able).

Ill need to spend a a round to reload after these two shots.

Re: Bugs In The System 1-12

S'Krllk sits up, tosses his needler aside, and pulls out the laser pistol he has feared to use. Cranking it to its highest setting, he aims it in Baralou's general direction and prepares to light up the sky, "Ok, murphy, if I'm gonna go it might as well be a fireball."

OOC: Methinks I shoulda paid more attention to the equipment. When S'Krllk gets around to shooting at Baralou, it will be obvious that he has failed to use this weapon thus far because he doesn't know how...

Re: Bugs In The System 1-12

ROUND 5
Yag fires twice but misses.

Amazingly, S'Krllk fires twice and hits both times!  (Great rolls.  53 dmg. BARALOU=47/100 remaining.)

Kri'lik fires twice but misses.

Despite her great skill, Desi misses one of her shots but hits with the other.  (74 dmg.)  The maintenance robot is damaged beyond working.

The ice cutter and gorilla begin moving toward Desi.  The gorilla robot will try to grapple/tackle her next round.  Desi feels very exposed standing outside the door.

The engine repair robot swings the tank at Desi again but misses.

Baralou fires a laser pistol at Kri'lik.  One of the shots hits the doctor.  (21 dmg.)

Kuurn, in the doorway behind Desi, fires at the ice cutter robot.  He hits it once. (28 dmg.)

Re: Bugs In The System 1-12

"Nice shooting Doc!" The Vrusk's shooting display seems to energize Yag, and he takes aim and squeezes off two three more shots. He growls appreciatively as his first and third shots appear to find the mark:

113:43, Today: Yagrith rolled 24 using 1d100. Yag shot #1.
13:43, Today: Yagrith rolled 95 using 1d100. Yag shot #2.
14:56, Today: Yagrith rolled 23 using 1d100. 3rd shot.
3:43, Today: Yagrith rolled 15 using 2d10. shot #1 dmg.
14:56, Today: Yagrith rolled 9 using 2d10. 3rd shot dmg.
 


Base to hit with gyrojet: 48
STA: 22
Skeinsut STA left: 14
Ammo left in weapon: 5 shots


[Post edited to add third shot.]

Re: Bugs In The System 1-12

The laser blast that hit the Doc is fully absorbed by his Albedo screen. Luckily for him he also had the screen powered by a power backpack, but not so with his laser pistol which now indicated Zero SEUs on the power clip. Looking around the DOc takes a few steps back into the room to give him some more distance from the approaching robots. While moving he ejects the empty SEU clip and pulls one of the spare power cords from his powerpack and attaches it to the pistol.

OOC: just realized that gyrojet weapons can fire three times per round, not two. Doh! Will roll for a third attack this round and edit my post accordingly.

Re: Bugs In The System 1-12

Desi realizes that the situation is critical and the she is outnumbered by the robots that just took out Sergi.  She begins to back out of the room and reaches to one of her attachment points and grabs a Tangler grenade and drops it on the floor behind her as she tries to close the door between her and the bots.

S'Krllk does not even acknowledge the incredible luck with which his first shots are blessed as he continues to press the stud on the laser pistol as he mumbles, "just fall apart you miserable chunk of mobile inanimate complex algorithmic obscenely plasticenely serenely destroyed discombobulated deranged..."
at this point, there's not much sense in the individual words.
