[QUOTE="Water Bob, post: 7132495, member: 92305"] [b]ROUND 3.[/b] [b]GM (Situation):[/b] You move in to knee the trooper in the gut, but he's too fast for you. You didn't even see it coming. The guy is highly trained, and he moved like a cat! He had something in his hands--what was it? You're too groggy to think! All you saw was this piece of black pipe that the trooper used to shove into your face! Did he break your cheekbone? Your head went backwards. Your body went limp. Fire broke out on your face! You went down. And now, you're on your back, coughing, blinking your watering eyes. You've got blood free flowing out of your nose. The trooper shouldered his weapon and stands astride your feet, blaster rifle at the ready, pointing directly at you, point blank range. As you blink and cough and hurt, you suck in air to breath through your mouth because your nose isn't working. And, you hear his mechanical voice say, "(click)Stay down! Don't move!(click)" What do you want to do? [b]P (Declaration):[/b] He's straddling me? I'm going to kick up, with all my might, right in his manhood! [b]GM (Declaration):[/b] He fires. Twice. [b]P (Reaction):[/b] I'll roll out of the way and Dodge that fire! [b]NOTE:[/b] No initiative needed here. The trooper is firing, -1D for two actions, and +5 for a prone target. Roark is Dodging, rolling out of the way, rolling his full 4D+1 Dodge. But, he's wounded, so he has a -1D. He rolls 3D +1: a total of 5! (I really rolled that! 1, 2, 1 + 1 = 5! Wow!) So, the trooper needs a total of 10+ to hit. Trooper has Blaster 3D, -1D for multi-actions, +5 for prone. Rolls 2D +5. 13! [b]GM (Segment 2 - Situation):[/b] Let's figure damage. The rifle does 5D damage. Roark throw STR 3D. Rifle 5D: 24! Wow! This trooper is on fire! (I've been rolling real dice--it makes it interesting for me to write this as I don't know what the outcome will be). [b]P:[/b] I've got to blow my Force Point! I should have used it on the Dodge! Roark 6D: 18. That means, even with the Force Point, that Roark takes another Wound. This means that Roark is Incapacitated. [b]The Force Was Not With Him. (And, Roark should have used the Force Point on the Dodge, ensuring that he wouldn't get hit. This shows the perils of waiting too long to use your FP.)[/b] [b]GM:[/b] You start to move, but you're hurt. You can barely see! You're much slower than what was in your mind. As soon as you twitch, the stormtrooper fires. The bright fire erupting from his weapon burn your retinas. You made about a quarter flip when the bolt caught you in the right arm. It blew a hole through your jacket and shirt and tore out a large chunk of your bicep. Your entire body lurched, like you had been stabbed with electricity. Then, the lights went out. Good night, Martha! The trooper kicks you in the back, a blow that flops you on your face in the gutter. "(click)This is TC1875 at Docking Bay 12. I've got a pick up. It's probably that Rebel scum that hit the alert this morning. Come get him before he bleeds to death all over the walk way,(click)" says the trooper, but you don't hear it.
