OCC Beyond Freedom (M&M PbP) FULL

[themaxx]

For now, can I assume I can use my energy blast, since that seems logical and backed up by the online message boards?

If so, I'm gonna start blasting soon, since some serious weird excreta is going down.

Keep me posted on the plant thing, since I'll use it if I can, but if not, so be it.

How do you want to do combat actions and initiative and stuff? I sense a fight breaking out...

 

[Sen Udo-Mal]

Yes for right now you can assume that. I am thinking that you have 2 things that effect you in this form. Right now my guess is Unarmed attacks and maybe solid elementals (earth/water attacks... I know that is two BUT these are fairly rare). What do you think? Other thoughts??

 

[themaxx]

Well, water already counters Fire and Electricity, as per the book, so I'd say Earth/Stone would make sense. Not sure what that means in game though.

Also, going with the whole organic theme of Unarmed Strikes, what about doing anything Organic/Living affects Radiation? Or would that be too counterintuitive.

Lead/Metal could also work. Maybe I'm only hurt by things that would normally absorb radiation harmlessly.

Oops, I thought range increments were 10' per attack level.

 

[bkmanis]

Range increments are power rank x 10’ according to page 126 under range Penalty heading. Range attacks have a maximum range of 10 increments, thrown weapons are the only exception.

Is this the rule? My rule book is in borrow mode right now...

Also, I can take two attacks in a round, cause they're each a half-action, right?

Finally, Sen: Can you let me know more about the plant matter and status around here? A tree or two I can manipulate perhaps?

 

[Sen Udo-Mal]

D'OH I am a dork
Yes Normal Range is Rank x10ft. For some reason I read this two weeks ago and remembered it as 5ft. My mistake I am sorry about that. OK So it would not effect much last round but I will re-adjust for next round (Security missed by more then 2 on the second attack).

Also themaxx, I am pretty sure you can only take one attack action a round, unless you have a Feat that allows you multiple attacks (Rapid Fire, Rapid Strike, Multifire, etc).

There are a few small trees (10-15ft) left still in a small park like area in the courtyard.

Just as an FYI Harbinger, you can see Brimstone, DeathKnight, Thumper, and Marguess.

Lastly ... Thain??? I was thinking about posting Round 2 but would like to get Athena's action. What are others thoughts about this? Should I wait to hear from Thain or kind of assume what Athena is going to do with your action (I would assume attacking one of the badguys and I might roll randomly to see who)

 

[Victim]

I'm pretty sure that only one 1/2 action can be an attack. Otherwise, rapid shot and the autofire extras would be pretty pointless.

Dang it. I should probably go and buy the book or something.

 

[Sen Udo-Mal]

Well see, yes an attack is a Half Action, but you can only normally take one Attack action in a round unless you have a Feat that allows you more. So you can Move and then Attack, Attack and then Move, or you can make a Double Move in one round. If you have a Feat that allows you more attacks in one round, then you can take only a 5ft step and take your Attacks

 

[themaxx]

I stand corrected. I've edited my post.

I'll reread some sections of the book when I get home tonight, but for now I'll just fire once and move. Gotta remember how all systems are different (I've got spycraft on the mind right now, sorry).

Sen: After this I'm going to try to entangle some folks in the trees, just FYI.
