STAR WARS: RETROSPECTION- Chains

In that case Wentar will drag Emso out of the way when he dives for cover. If he can grab Vlad too, awesome, if not he'll just shout a 'watch out!'

Your powers have served you well, Wentar. A laser bolt that would have gone clean through your head instead buzzes just above as you drag your friends into cover. It explodes against the rusted piece of junk that you hunker down behind, giving you 6 damage.

Vlad and Emso are now very aware of the danger. Emso lugs out his pistol.

The old man is skittering away.

Alright then, Vlad will whip out his rifle and try to pinpoint where the shot at Wentar came from.

A man in the wreckage that you easily spot, Vlad. Taking the shot?

"Emso! Go after that man," Wentar says, gesturing to the old man trying to escape.

Wentar is gonna start moving towards the sniper, since he's two turns away I want to tap Dodge and Weave if he shoots at me. If Vlad can move and shoot that'd be great, too. I want us to get up close to this guy.

Can we see any other attackers in the area?

All this depends on whether or not Vlad takes his shot...

Vlad's going to take the shot at the man next to the wreckage. I don't think it could be Marl, as he would probably have one of his goons do it for him.

Vlad takes his shot! With his targeting rifle having a * rating, he only needs two successes. He rolls five and puts a shot into the man up on the scrap. He cries out (let's make it a Wilhelm scream) and falls. That takes care of him.

The old man tries to get away, but Emso holds him at gunpoint.

"N-not so fast!" Emso shouts, trying to be intimidating. It isn't something he is very handy with, and he throws himself into cover as the old man starts shooting haphazardly about the scrapyard.

"Just put your gun down!" Wentar shouts at the old man, seeking cover.

Vlad will remain where he is behind cover, shouting over at the man.

"If you do not seize firing and drop the weapon we will have to put you down."

Intimidation roll, perhaps?

How is your Intimidation + Charisma pool?

Oh! Oh! Let Wentar do it! He has Intimidate 2, Charisma 5 and +3 from Presence!

Vlad doesn't have presence so yeah, Wentar should do it.

The problem there is that Wentar is not the one holding the gun.

You should carry a gun around just for intimidation purposes 😛

In that case, Vlad will make the intimidation roll. He has a 2 for intimidation and a 5 in charisma.

I doubt that'd be allowed. 😛 Probably just make it look obvious that I have no idea how to use the damn thing.

Not a bad pool for a combat-oriented template! But sadly one success won't do. He seems to be heading for the small warehouse.

Emso is reluctant to run after him.

"Emso, check that office!" Wentar says, gesturing to the smaller building next to the warehouse as he gives chase to the old man.

If he catches him before he enters the building, awesome. But if he makes it inside Wentar wont charge in just yet.

Emso does not want to go alone.

Hmmm, Vlad, do we bother checking the office at all? I sorta do but at the same time I want to deal with the warehouse soon. Maybe Wentar pokes around the office while Vlad and Emso deal with the Warehouse?
