(Zink is having trouble logging in, says his password isn't legit, and he's too lazy to get a new password. 🙄 He'll post some of his actions with me, so I'll make it clear which is his and which is mine.)
Mors dives into a roll and keeps going until he reaches the barricade that Fire is at. He then lunges at a SWAT guy with a horizontal hack with his sword for the waist. (My banked move and my move this round.)+
Wow, FWK could be overkill! That gives him no action the turn after, I hope he knows that...
Ok, Heph, you race over, leap into the air, and kick repeatedly in mid-air over the barricade into your target.
Your attack rolls -1. That's still a hit, but only for 3.
But you are not done! As you hit, you immediately attack him again in mid-air! This time you roll evens- another hit for 4, and that is enough to knock him out, flying backwards. You land, Heph, and can make whatever victorious stance- and defence for that matter- that you like!
You don't act next action, Heph, but you lose an exertion. So that works out just fine!
Actually, both you AND Mors had best defend... I think a Willow Step or Vertcial Dodge- if you can do them- would be very handy!
shink!
The SWAT had dodged and lived, but then you turn and twist, and the blade sinks deep through him...
That's him dead!
Ok, time for the cops and SWAT to fire again, folks, as only Rade, Fire and Virus have not acted and I am still moving things on high speed.
Only two SWATS left on the Western barriacde now. I am going to cut the unlucky Fire a break and have them shoot at Heph and Mors, though Mors is diving to one side and Heph is flashily flipping off the nearby wall to become very hard to hit...
The five SWATS from the South side split their fire between the three at the west as well- two volleys at Mors, two and Heph, one at Fire.
That leaves ten others who split their fire evenly between you all- an extra two volleys each. Some of these shots you have cover from, some you don't.
I'll give Fire a Willow Step, which will Exert him out and lose him an action- but a banked one, so he can still act.
Ok, the West and South side SWATS all miss. Just the other ten left...
Heph! Unlucky, but with SO much fire coming at you, the lucky SWAT roll has come at you. You are clipped again, for another seven damage! Again, if you want to use a power to reduce that, you can...
Virus and Rade, you are lucky, it all misses...
As for Burn, Castor and Cloud... your assailants don't really have a chance now, do they?

CURRENTLY OWED ACTIONS: Virus (3), Rade (1)
Ok, first of all, this action sees Mors retrieving his sword, and Heph landing after his flashy uber-kick. Heck, you just Vertical dodged in mid-air, Heph! That was neat. Your Whirlwind kick, then, hit the guard twice- talking him out- then took you all the way to the far wall, where you flipped backwards, avoiding enemy fire, and then landed!
Very cool, and only spoilt because one bullet did actually clip your leg- but even Neo couldn't avoid that, so don't worry!
Castor, you are making your grab. You do indeed take firm hold of the cop, and spin him around to hold him firmly.
Burn, you want to fire, I am guessing. With considerable frustration being released, you blow away the last healthy cop.
Cloud, that just leaves you one Hit and HELD cop to take out. Should be easy- chose your coup de grace
Ares and Coeus, you make it to the far door in room 3. You'll be heading inside next action!
The SWAT team is going to fire again- but only two bursts each this time! Mors and Heph busy you may be but you might want to defend again!
So... I need actions from:
Fire, Virus, Rade and Cloud.
