(Face it Rex, you are screwed...)
"Rianna, looks like we shall have to fight through the circle, no?" Nume says, tightening his grip on his lightsaber. He heads towards the Osokans blocking his way, Rianna alongside him.
(I want to try and set up something with TM to keep synced with each other in combat...)
I say we just trash the walls. If they get too close, you'll have to hold them, while I cut it. We're not holding out against more than 20 osokans, are we?
How many frames are they away from us, Ush? And I presumed they've covered all the exits - I mean, we tried to head out of the building and found some more, yes?
Actually, all you have tried so far is to get to your ships.
Rah can try and fend people off you as you cut- however, what you REALLY want is someone with Bodyguard, because then he could actively intercept blows coming your way.
Rianna, with the high frame count, can strike first, of course.
Galder, the river is swimming-deep. But they'll swim as low as you do; we can start making Strength rolls to see who has to go up first...
Ok, here goes...
Rah, the first Osokan moves in on the Promenade (it takes them a frame to close). The faster man, you step back and slash! He attempts to use his whip to block your blow. You roll evens; a dead-on hit, and 18 damage.
12 frames worth of cutting will get you through the wall. However, every time you have to stop, the time involved moving your sabre out and in again adds a frame to that.
Galder, you swim for it, trying to go low. You and your pursuers make similar efforts... but their constitution is the greater; you have to come up first. This slows you and now the lead three have caught you. The ones up above on the riverside are now moving ahead.
Rianna, you strike and your target dodges. A +6 is a very solid hit from you for 25 damage! BTW, I took a frame off the centre-north guys as they took that time to get across the plaza.
Rand, you try and blast a force throw at the Osokans- but please remmeber you may NOT use Throw as an attack to move people, that is specified in its description. You throw things AT them.
Today you are on form- you roll +10! You are hurling solid metal decorative statues at them, that smash into a couple of them with a heck of a whack. Seven damage to two targets.

Tanic, how long do you wish to cut for, or do you plan to do something else, or to defend yourself?
Galder, they have caught up with you but you are still ahead on frames and may strike.
Rianna is still ahead on frames also.
Rah, it was two that moved in first (though it is three and a Captain just behind them), so two attacks coming your way.
