Contract #3: I, Robot?

Post by **GM Nick** » Wed Apr 04, 2012 3:58 pm

Four enforcers dive for cover behind low-ferrocrete walls. The kiosk gate--a massive, carbon-titanium affair--slides shut, preventing Firestarter's escape.

Behind the cover of the door, Max fires on the most visible enforcer he can see.

Drew Buddy · Post by **Drew Buddy** » Wed Apr 04, 2012 4:05 pm

Doc swings the bulldog hard hard left into a parking spot surrounded by other vehicles along the wall.

"We've got to get that gate open! Use the vehicles as cover!" He shouts. He throws the door open, and hops out, taking cover behind a family station wagon.

Doc sights in on the most alert looking enforcer, and fires a burst.

(( Enforcer 4 ))

Post by **GM Nick** » Wed Apr 04, 2012 6:55 pm

Ranged Combat (Doc)

Doc's bursts rip across the half-wall and fill the air with ferrocrete dust, but fail to hit any targets.

Post by **GM Nick** » Wed Apr 04, 2012 6:59 pm

Enforcer #4 props his assault rifle barrel on the ferro-crete and squeezes off two bursts at Doc.

Ranged Combat (Enforcer #4)

Damage Resistance (Doc)

(( 2P DAMAGE! ))

Doc winces as a bullet penetrates his armor and bites into his shoulder.

Ranged Combat (Enforcer #4)

The second burst riddles an Americar behind Doc.

John · Post by **John** » Wed Apr 04, 2012 7:03 pm

Marlowe's fury is directed first and foremost at Enforcer 2.

(( BF, +4 DV, move onto Enforcer 3 if he dies. ))

Post by **GM Nick** » Wed Apr 04, 2012 7:32 pm

Ranged Combat (Max)

The Enforcer dives as soon as he sees the shotgun, the slugs from which excavate huge chunks of the ferrocrete.

Ranged Combat (Max)

Max's second burst follows the Enforcer's diving roll, but fails to hit him.

(( Val's up. ))

John · Post by **John** » Wed Apr 04, 2012 7:38 pm

(( Enforcer 2's action was burned by his dodge-- gun for Enforcer 3! ))

Stephen · Post by **Stephen** » Wed Apr 04, 2012 9:29 pm

Val guns for Enforcer 3...

Post by **GM Nick** » Wed Apr 04, 2012 10:01 pm

Val pops out from behind the back of Eurocar Westwind and lets his FN HAR do the talkin'.

Ranged Combat (Val)

Gunfire strafes the Enforcers' cover, scattering ferrocrete debris and adding to the ever increasing fog of war.

Post by **GM Nick** » Wed Apr 04, 2012 10:04 pm

Enforcer #3 pops up, aims, and fires a burst at the exposed Val Merrin.

Ranged Combat (Enforcer 3)

Val pivots back behind the car as the side-view mirror explodes in a shower of glass and silver plastic.

(( It's Tyros' turn. ))

Elliott · Post by **Elliott** » Wed Apr 04, 2012 10:14 pm

Tyros doesn't feel like leaving the car, and even invisible, opening the cardoor might attract some gunfire, and the last thing they need is a dead Takahara. Then who would pay them?

With a flick of his wrist (centering), Tyros send a ball of glowing yellow energy zipping into Enforcer #1 (manaball, f6).

Post by **GM Nick** » Wed Apr 04, 2012 10:37 pm

Manabolt (f6)

Resist Drain (5)

(( 8P DAMAGE! ))

Enforcer #1 tries desperately (and in vain) to beat out the magical flames that burn his flesh.

John · Post by **John** » Wed Apr 04, 2012 10:38 pm

(( Somebody finally does some damage!! ))

Post by **GM Nick** » Wed Apr 04, 2012 10:44 pm

Enforcer #1, still reeling from the effects of Tyros' spell, brandishes his assault rifles and opens fire on Max's position.

Ranged Combat (Enforcer #1)

Damage Resistance (Max)

(( 2P DAMAGE! ))

A stray bullet grazes Max's hip--causing a minor wound.

Ranged Combat (Enforcer 1)

The windshield of the Americar next to Max shatters, covering the elf in a deluge of harmless safety glass bits.

(( Hey Bruce Lee--you're up. ))

John · Post by **John** » Wed Apr 04, 2012 10:47 pm

Max cups his hand to his wound and draws it back up. The blood on his fingers enrages the elf, and the venom in his scream is blood-curdling,

"I'M GONNA SHOW YOU YOUR FRAGGIN' INSIDES, DREKBAG!"

Nobody on the team has any reason to doubt Max's promise.

Conway · Post by **Conway** » Wed Apr 04, 2012 11:14 pm

Rolling from behind cover, Sinjin lets fly his throwing knives at the nearest enforcer.

Post by **GM Nick** » Thu Apr 05, 2012 8:47 am

Ranged Combat (Sinjin)

Damage Resistance (Enforcer 1)

The knife stikes the enforcer, but fails to penetrate his armor.

Post by **GM Nick** » Thu Apr 05, 2012 8:48 am

[ Doc = 57 ]
[ Max = 54 ]
[ Enforcer 2 = deceased ]
[ Tyros = 39 ]
[ Enforcer 4 = 39 ]
[ Enforcer 3 = deceased ]

[ Enforcer 1 = deceased ]

Drew Buddy · Post by **Drew Buddy** » Thu Apr 05, 2012 9:47 am

Doc winces at his fresh wounds, and sends a burst down range at enforcer 2.

Post by **GM Nick** » Thu Apr 05, 2012 10:26 am

Ranged Combat (Doc)

Damage Resistance (Enforcer 2)

(( 9P DAMAGE! ))

Doc's first burst is good--pelting the Enforcer across his torso.

Drew Buddy · Post by **Drew Buddy** » Thu Apr 05, 2012 10:28 am

Finally gaining some traction, Doc sends a finishing volley at the now wounded enforcer.

Stephen · Post by **Stephen** » Thu Apr 05, 2012 10:28 am

(( Max gun for Enforcer 4!!! ))

Post by **GM Nick** » Thu Apr 05, 2012 10:34 am

Ranged Combat (Doc)

Doc's second burst scatters more ferrocrete chunks but misses the intended target.

John · Post by **John** » Thu Apr 05, 2012 10:42 am

Max sees Enforcer 2's finger playing at his trigger with Doc in his sights. Without thinking, Max switches his focus from Enforcer 1 to Enforcer 2 and fires.

(( BF ))

Post by **GM Nick** » Thu Apr 05, 2012 10:47 am

Ranged Combat (Max)

Damage Resistance (Enforcer 2)

(( 12P DAMAGE! ))

The Enforcer's head pops like a ripe melon and his limp body collapses against the ferrocrete barrier.

John · Post by **John** » Thu Apr 05, 2012 11:01 am

The tide of battle is turning! Max swings his shotgun to Enforcer 4, being the nearest to his previous target whose eight pound loss looks like it probably would have moved him from middle to light weight class.

Post by **GM Nick** » Thu Apr 05, 2012 11:07 am

Ranged Combat (Max)

Max's second burst scatters more debris across the battlefield.

(( Tyros is up. ))

Post by **GM Nick** » Thu Apr 05, 2012 3:30 pm

Tyros redoubles his efforts to finish off Enforcer #1, casting another manabolt.

Manabolt (f4)

Resist Drain (4)

(( 6P DAMAGE! ))

Enforcer #1 falls to the ground, his body unable to take the intensity of the magical flames. He is dead.

Post by **GM Nick** » Thu Apr 05, 2012 3:34 pm

Enforcer #4 pops up, firing a burst at Max.

Ranged Combat (Enforcer 4)

Max ducks behind the Americar, which is quickly beginning to resemble plastic and steel swiss cheese. None of the enforcer's bursts hit the elf.

John · Post by **John** » Thu Apr 05, 2012 3:38 pm

Max huddles behind the door in the GM and looks at Takahara, cowering in the backseat. The small Japanese scientist is shaking in fear. Max reaches a hand out and pats him on the shoulder, reassuring him,

"We're almost home, doctor! Just keep your head down!"

Redirecting, Max cocks his face toward the blown out window and shouts out,

"YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO DO A LOT BETTER THAN THAT, YOU SON OF A SLITCH!"

The bullets continue to fly. The inside of the car is dashed with an unimaginable smattering of safety glass-- tiny pebbles that look like reflective confetti.

Post by **GM Nick** » Thu Apr 05, 2012 3:38 pm

Enforcer #3 strafes Val's position with assault rifle fire.

Ranged Combat (Enforcer 3)

Val leaps behind a Nissan Nimbus, feeling a bullet whip through his coat.

Ranged Combat (Enforcer 3)

Another near miss! A bullet deflates the tire next to him.

(( Val's up. ))

Stephen · Post by **Stephen** » Thu Apr 05, 2012 7:09 pm

Val's hand goes involuntarily to his side as a flap of his open coat whips away from his body, an almost-well-placed round having caught the whiskered Kevlar weave. He grits his teeth and growls over the sound of shredding metal as three more rounds tear into the Nissan which currently serves its role as his tenuous salvation. Val dives alongside the front bumper, falling prone on the opposite side of the car, lines up a shot on his grand nemesis of the last few seconds, and squeezes the trigger twice.

(( Narrow burst on Enforcer 3, move to #4 if primary dies on first burst. ))
