USH'S MATRIX GAME: THIRD ASSIGNMENT- 'Eliminate'- PHILOSOPHY PATH

the guy i jst fired at.

Ah, as I said at the update, you actually killed him.

The most wounded person attacking someone else in close combat then. To help you all get away...

"Come on, lets get out of here!"

Ah, ok...

You roll a +1 for a 17. A hit of 4, takes him to 6! and you dash away into the office, where Heph is already trying to clear panciking office workers out of your way.

"okie looking good, where we need to at azrael? "

Well I assume I have an actio this turn(Guys are moving toward the emergency stais i think) I will move toward the stairs whilst firing the last round of my shotgun into another shotgun guy whilst I move away toward ths stairs.

Ok, Castor, you roll +2 and blow that final shotgun guy away!

Ok, the three remaining guys attack Rade... but Rade fends off all their attacks!

Three more SWAT with assault rifles have come up the stairs, Rade.

CURRENTLY OWED ACTIONS: Rade (1)

-----

Ok, I wiped out the banked actions of those in the Office and there was nothing you could reasonably do with them. Incidentally, I take a dim view of people acting and not using their banked actions. That is not what they are for, to be stored for use later. They should be used as soon as you have them.

Heph has now cleared the way- it is an action to get across to the emergency exit door.

ok..i kept the shotgun.
I fire the two remaining shots at two of the swats with assault rifles.
one shot for each

*hurries towards the emergency exit*

"Rade get out of there"

yes, that was my banked action.
my next one is to run out of there, towards the others....
wonder if i can do both of them in one (as in shooting while moving away)
..modiffied with GATHERING OF THE CLOUDS..so i don't get exerted

Ok, Fire, you burst into the emergency exit stairwell, only to find it is too late for the link-up; SWAT teams have already reached the level below.

Rade, you fire, rolling a +6, which kills one of the new assault rifle guys stone dead.

You then get a free attack made on you by a nightstick guy as you flee. He rolls +4; actually a hit! For 1 damage! Ow!

Your Gathered atack gains you no exertion but you roll -1 for a 12... not good enough. You make it into the office, pursued by the nightstick guys...

Azrael find out where we need to go fast

FLIP OF THE GRASSHOPPER on the closes night stick guy to me.

Hey, you just ran OUT of combat... heh, ok, banked that.

Azrael speaks quickly on the phone to Finn
"We need another exit now! there are SWAT everywhere!"

I assume you are heading to the stairwell, Azrael?

"Ok, head upwards and get off at the next floor," he says, calmly.

I am assuming Heph goes with you guys... you are a little worried Rade may not make it before the SWAT get to this level!

There are more SWAT coming up the main stairs but we can safely ignore them so long as you keep moving.

The assault rifle guys fire at Rade... lucky! Misses.

Round ends, focus refreshes!

Fire: 15/8/0

CURRENTLY OWED ACTIONS: Rade (1), Azrael (1)

-----

Ok, Rade stays on the move, backflipping with a flip of the Grasshopper! You roll a +1, Rade, for a 15- a Hit for 2 and you can immediately disengage and move.

You have a spare action, Rade. However, as I have just been telling the combat path guys, you cannot actually use extra actions to move- speed is about being able to get more things done, not run 50% faster than everyone else. So, if you want, you can use that extra action to have made another attack on that guy you Flipped away from, before you made the flip- might kill him, will certainly force him to dodge again.

Am i at the stairwell? If I am have the SWAT seen us?
"Go up Fire, go UP!!!!"

Yes, you are at the stairwell (and you can act, and you have a spare action as well).

No- right now they seem to be more bothered with getting onto floor 13 but it can only be a matter of time.

And I cant use my action to go up? Okay. I have no guns either.

You cannot use the extra action to go up, but you could use it to, say. open the door, having used your main first action to go up.

I actually had you with one clip left, Azrael; did I count wrong?
