It was Punchbug vs. Rundown (Tyrant supercharged Dodge Viper police interceptor). For some reason, the guy running Rundown never bothered to come out of vehicle form. During the fight Rundown tried the PIT maneuver (a Slam, using the vehicle combat rules) and managed to dent my fender and spin me out of control. I regained control as he sped by, so I turned and drove off in the opposite direction. Punchbug was too slow to even try to outrun Rundon, so I had her pop up into robot form, climb onto an Interstate overpass and open fire. I missed a lot thanks to Rundown's high AC and the fact that he has the Combat Pilot feat (Rundown's AC was 18 and we forgot to add the AC bonus for speed-- otherwise I'd have never hit him). I did mange to hit him twice, though. One of the houserules I came up with is that the firearms damage is sized for a Medium wielder and increases with the size of the 'bot, so Punchbug was doing 3d6 with her carbine. With the bonus HP houserule Rundown took the two hits fairly well. He was damaged, however, and sped away to find a good mechanic.The houserules for damage and HP worked well, but we didn't get a chance to use the "Strength bonus for size" rule.</blockquote>
