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

(Umm...why is my focus at 8? I haven't done anything to use focus yet, I don't think...)

Sweep of the Grasshopper with Hands without Shadow on the Agent.

Corrected...

Unlucky, San- you roll -3! The Agent jumps neatly over your strike..

I go away for a few days and almost get Ko'd by an agent. Ah well, lets see if I've got the hang of this new system.

I'll WHIRLWIND BLADE ONSLAUGHT and WATER WEAPON which'll cost me 5 focus and 4 frames...right?

Any new powers in any of the paths that I have?

Mors says Sweep of the Grasshopper.

Seems about right, Cloud.

Ok, Mors strikes at the Agent with his Sweep- the Agent dodges. Mors rolls +1; nice try, but not good enough...

Cloud, you whirl your sword like crazy for your strike, which the Agent also dodges. You roll +4 for a 20! Most certainly a hit! Four damage to the Agent as you open a narrow slash across his front. His eyes narrow...

Barb cannot hold onto his frames forever... seems you are all still ahead of the Agent though!

ohh, Good and not good...

Damn Agent...

I will try a Jump of the Grasshopper with Hands without Shadow on the Agent. Barb will fire another 4 bursts at him.

Ok, Barb rolls +1 for a final total of 16... costing the Agent two frames.

Agent Performs: Intercept Punch

You leap into the air, San... but the Agent smashes your foot to one side, and follows up with a blow to your chest that causes you six damage, wounding you...

Damnit...but it's better than being proned, I guess...

Well, looks like you are all still ahead of the Agent!

NOTE:

2.6 rules are now up. Go take a look! I think it all looks quite good, and the system should be easily understood by all here:

Another Sweep of the Grasshopper, my good man.

That is a Predictable attack, so the Agent will stand firm on that one...

Mors rolls -2... a long way short. The Agent jumps neatly backwards, smiling...

C'mon guys! All of you can act!

Hit Him Hard!
Use your Proning attacks!

I'll JUMP OF THE GRASSHOPPER him as soon as someone attacks him and makes him drop the rest of his frames.

4 more bursts at him from each gun using BGB.

Er, in that case, you are waiting and you will lose frames, Cloud. You cannot just cling to frames when you should be acting.

San, you roll +3... the Agent, having just jumped backwards from Mors' attack, starts to blur again... losing another three frames.

I'll JUMP OF THE GRASSHOPPER now on Mr. Agent

Okidokey!

You roll -1... gah, I am afraid your impariment makes that a miss! The Agent falls back, and your kick goes short.
