"Taking avasive manuvers sir" DM Nice start to success no failurs Player 3 (tac off) I retuern fire...

DM You over load the generaters, normaly backups would kick right in, but the sheilds are to compramized...your sheilds are down...3/2 not looking good Player 1: I make a History roll...what do I know of the tactics this ship is useing?

DM 4/2...those aliens didn't see that comeing...so way to go you get a few seconds to breath... Player 3 Action point...Use player 1 tac presence then fire a corrdnated shot at the weak point he found.... then I follow it up with a presise shot taking out there aft guns... DM OK...start with an attack with your +2 and your +3 from the tac lord... Player 3: I rolled a 16...I total nailed it... Dm Ok now make a Mechanics check to see if you can pin point those weapons... Player 3: I rolled a 17...but it is untrained so I missed the DC 20... DM: 5/3 still got a chance Player 4: I am going to get fake a broad cast from hyperspace saying back up is on the way...Bluff...
