Ok Castor- shame you don't have Eagle Eye but let's see what happens.
Gah- -6 on your shot on the light fittings. Not enough to blast them down!
Then with your attack on the goon... oooh, this is rather hopeful... -1. Not going to go anywhere, sorry. You are just blasting into their cover.
Mors has been quite lucky, but not extremely so- you have over a 50/50 chance of passing each Death Check until you have taken more than twice your strength past 35 in damage- so for Mors, 43 is where things get very hairy.
Ok, Rade, you already got the free attack on you so let's see how this goes! Nice to see you using your feet again. You roll evens. He actually comes close to dodging that, but he does not; you fail to make much impression with the kick itself but his gun is neatly hooked out of his arms by your foot and clatters to the ground...
Which gives us only three of these Elite goons left, one unarmed and one exerted. Poor! Only one fires, and that will be at Ares. He rolls +1- a 14. Oh! So close... oh well.

Ok, guys, carry on...
A good time to, San, as there is only one in a position to take a bonius attack on you- as there is only one attacker, that Willow Step will become a Basic Dodge instead. He misses- just!
Lightning Fist is not quite the Killer Stroke on Mundanes that it is on named characters; nonethless, I shall treat that as a hit at +7 damage.
You roll +3, for a 17. Definitely a Hit, and a Hit with a Mundane Kiling Power of +3. Ooh, close, but such a shame about his armour... that is a Hit for 3. Nice try; only the armour stopped that being a one hit kill.
CALLING ALL EXPERIENCED PLAYERS!
Think you know the system? Laugh with superiority and/or pity when you see others making mistakes? Think it would be nice if you can get more out of things?
Interested in getting your Download Capacity up to 45?
Good! Because I have a new version in the works which I think is better and that I could possibly introduce at the end of the year but I am looking for comments on it from those in the know. Here is it:
http://www.killermovies.com/forums/f41/t22084.html
If you know the system and have played it out, please go have a look, make a character with the new system and tell me if you think it is viable.
Thankyou for your help...
Ok, let's see, a bonus attack on you, Celsius- which I assume you dodge... doh! It rolled 16, that's still a hit. 6 damage to you, Celsius.
Then you make a Very Fast Strike of the Snake attack! You roll +2, for 16. That is a Hit for 2...
Then you drop your guns, another Very Fast action.
And then you do your Eye of the Fox... +2 is a Hit! You then smash him for another hit for 2.
This assaul rifle has two bursts left.
However, you are now exerted, Celsius.
The good news is, two of the three left are disarmed and one is exerted!
Castor, you open fire. You roll +3, for 14. Still not good enough to get pas that cover, Castor! This really is not a good guns situation for you, without Eagle Eye.
Ok, Cloud, you make your Roaring attack on Ya, who dodges. You roll +1, which gives you a fianl total of 14... gah, sorry, just a miss...
But their return strikes are DISMAL, and you certainly get your Stance in on Ya's -9! You roll +2 and he did not dodge, and that is another hit for 4 damage. You need a bit more muscle is your main problem, Cloud, Oh look, you would have it in V2.0... oooohh...
Bugger, I forgot it was 3 powers. You probably didn't want to remind me of that because Ya has enough power for a Block dodge still, which is what he would have done.
Heh- no difference. Whatever Block follow up attack he then used you STILL would have stanced against because he rolled so badly. So the difference is, same before, except Ya wasted focus on a Block he messed up the follow up to. Which is the problem with Blocks- too many places they can go wrong on
