[QUOTE="ProfessorCirno, post: 4489161, member: 65637"] To quote "Sample Combat" from elsewhere: The party of bold/stupid/erstwhile and ignorant members (perfect =][= material really) was investigating a psychic disturbance up on a large hillock of shale and scree. Upon getting most of the way up, the Arbites slips arse over head on loose scree and goes tumbling down, taking the Scum with him in the process, in a manner which would please the chaos gods with it's twisted irony... though the Arbites denying it was deliberate as they tumble down together. Both him and the Scum are really busted up in a tangled mess of broken bones, skulls and dirt at the bottom of the hill, erstwhile (and stupid) Psyker decides to save the day by announcing that he'll fix them up and before Angry Nun can finish screaming out 'no don't the veil is weak here!' he's happily botching a power roll. "A Horror of the ruinous ones appears!" Arbites promptly passes out in fear Scum runs screaming, defecating and hobbling Tech Priest runs behind the truck soiling his robes Psyker, runs screaming in order to die tired Angry Nun, gets angry(er) DING DING Round One! Horror sets Psyker on fire and sets off in pursuit Angry Nun hauls out 10G sawn-off and holy plasms of banishing, proceeds chasing the Horror (Bold and Stupid!) Psyker, burns a bit but is still mostly functional at running Tech Priest snaps a shot off at the horror with las-carbine, doesn't do very much, resumes hiding Scum, 'weeeeza gunna diiiiiie!' runs screaming for cover Arbites, zzzz DING DING Round Two! Horror lands a good old fire-bolt to the back of the Psyker and sets the truck on fire Angry Nun scores a good hit with some banishing water and hurts the Horror a bit Psyker is in a fair bit of pain, still on fire and running around going "Ow! Ow! Ow! Oh god it burns!" Tech Priest notices the sacred machine is in pain and needs fixing Scum, does what scum do and hides under the truck Arbites... zzzz DING DING Round Three! Horror bolts the Psyker a bit more Angry Nun grievously hurts the Horror a bit more Psyker is still on fire and roughly at about 0 wounds and about to go into criticals, agony level of about 8/10 Tech Priest is doing badly at putting fire out Scum, catches fire underneath the truck Arbites... zzzz DING DING Round Four! Horror blows the foot off the Psyker with a bolt Angry Nun is busting up the Horror pretty good, but a bad roll on the dice means a lot less damage than hoped (even after a re-roll on a fate point) Psyker, still on fire, minus foot and now crawling in agony Tech Priest managing to get the truck fire under control Scum, rolls around on fire Arbites... wakes up, shrieks a bit and passes out again DING DING Round Five! Horror lands another bolt... Angry Nun snaps off some serious pain on the Horror, he's looking very wobbly now Psyker, detonates in a shower of meat, shrapnel, armour and exploding munitions Tech Priest gets injured by chunks of Psyker Scum gets injured by chunks of Psyker, while still on fire Arbites, zzzz DING DING Round Six! Angry Nun vs Horror at the same initiative Angry Nun pulls trigger on sawn down shotgun Horror lets loose with a Psychic Scream Angry Nun falls down on 5pts of Fatigue, Horror explodes in shower of gibs and goes back to whence it came Psyker, rains down on the landscape in burning chunks Tech Priest puts the Scum out Scum, much happier that he' not on fire anymore Arbites, zzzz [/QUOTE]
