Message: <blockquote data-quote="Mosier" data-source="post: 6615269" data-attributes="member: 6776381">Skinny is about to fire two more times with his dual semi-automatic pistols. The total recoil is now 6, and his recoil compensation is only 2. Skinny will suffer a -4 penalty due to recoil, a -1 penalty due to wound modifiers, a -2 penalty for using an offhand weapon, and a -2 penalty for the target being behind cover. Skinny's total dice pool is 15(-9) due to penalties, for a total of 6 dice. This leaves 3 dice each for his two attacks. Skinny's right hand attack - 3 hitsTeam 3 leader's opposed roll - 3 hitsSkinny grazes with his right hand attack, dealing no damage (despite his lucky attack roll!) Skinny's left hand attack - 1 hitTeam 3 leader's opposed roll - 3 hitsSkinny misses completely with his left hand attackWith his second simple action, Skinny fires both weapons again. This time, he suffers even more recoil, reducing his dice pool to 4. He has only 2 dice for each of his attacks.Skinny's right hand attack - 0 hitsSkinny misses completelySkinny's left hand attack - 2 hitsTeam 3 leader's opposed roll - 3 hitsSkinny misses completelySkinny's pistols fire wildly as he staggers backward from the force of being shot. The Team 3 leader is unharmed. It's unlikely Skinny will be able to hit anything until he takes a moment to steady his weapons again.Combat round 2 initiative rolls:Saint: 16Skinny: 16Team 3 leader: 11Heartbreak: 10Meanwhile, Casper walks purposefully (but not overtly) toward her target: the Pow! mixing vats. The workers don't recognize her, but luckily for her there are enough people working for this project that they're probably used to unfamiliar faces. A few eyes drift to her lapel, where the employee badge is pinned. Nobody seems suspicious.When she reaches the mixing vats, Casper recognizes a small port, probably meant for inserting a chemical sensor or adding small amounts of ingredients to maintain the delicate recipe balance. Casper has brought along a dry chemical pellet, made up of industrial-strength disinfectant concentrate. This will certainly ruin the batch, and likely cause extreme gastric distress to anyone who drinks this stuff.Casper opens the port behind the machine and slips the chemical pellet in. The vats, recognizing a substance added to the valve port, whirs to life as it churns the poison into the product. The deed is done. The live presentation will certainly go badly, but the issue of the backup video still nags at her. On one hand, it will be almost impossible for CTI to keep the terrible presentation completely out of the media, but on the other hand, the company might be willing to go to extreme lengths to protect its brand. After all, the attendees are all hand-picked members of the media, probably already bribed by CTI. And these days, making the odd uncooperative reporter or two disappear isn't entirely out of the question...</blockquote>
