USH'S MATRIX GAME FOURTH ASSIGNMENT (COMBAT PATH)- 'The Heist'

Barb says to Natural Order that.

...and next chance I get I'm heading over to Burn to try and help him out a bit...

Dodge and dodge.

"Then I guess I will have to do this the hard way. Release me or I will be forced to hurt you."

"Big words for a guy who I've pinned..." says Medea.

Sinsiter rolls -1, for a 16... missed!

But Tyr's +1, 18, is a hit. Another five damage to Ares.

I'm exerted this round, right?

After the dodging, yes.

(Need some advice from the crew, am I allowed to hurt Medea yet? I know you all said she is a bit on our side of the story, but I don't want to sit by and watch you all get shot up. The guns nut Loomis would go down easily if I attacked him.)

"Good point..."

(I say go for it, Mors. Though, that gives me and Burn the problem of being attacked by an MA specialist, rather than her standing there giving you a hug.)

(Also, I think she gets a free attack if you try escape her hold and fail.)

No, if she takes an action she loses the Hold. But Mors takes five damage for each escape attempt.

Ah, I see.

Ok what should I do against a sword attack?

Hmm...how did Mors get to 27 damage again? He got up there in one round, I think. 😖

SHELL OF THE TURTLE to dodge that shot then I'll crawl out of the car and hide next to Ares.

Yeah, Mors got shot to pieces attacking the van solo.

Against a sword attack- Fox path, Burn.

Khali rolls evens, Cloud, giving her final shot a total of 19 with four bursts. Yes... that does indeed mean that Khali's gun skill is 16. She is amazing, Cloud- and utterly without conscience to boot. That is a hit for eight damage.

16, damn...

Right, I am assuming Burn dodges that sword attack from Jericho...

Jerich rolls +3 for an 18, hitting Burn by three. That is a total of nine damage to Burn, and a death check. Burn rolls +5- still standing!

Ok, end of round, focus and exertion reset!

The police car whose siren you just heard has pulled up. The two policemen emerge, and look at the scene before them- a mass gunfight, a small woman holding some guy in a death grip in a shot up van, and a nutter with a sword hacking away at someone.

"What do you make of this one, Bob?" asks one of the cops, but the person he is expecting to answer does not.

"Leave this to me..." says Agent 2.

I shall do my guys first, it seems...

"Agent left!" yells out Loomis. He turns and fires four bursts from each gun at it. He rolls +1, for a 19.

Agent Performs: Bullet Dodge

The Agent starts to blur immediately and protractedly, gaining four exertion in the process.

Jericho performs a Hand of thr Jade Emperor sword stab at you, Burn.

The three at the subway are re-loading...

It'll be our chance to move soon. While they're distracted with the agent someone grab the laptop and run, with everyone else covering them.

"Hot damn!" Ares curses, turning and firing four bursts at Tyr while Loomis takes care of the Agent.

Okdokey, Ares. However, Sinister takes but one exertion to re-load his ingrams and he fires three bursts from that at you before you fire.
