Robotech - The Invid War - IC

[Psychie]

As I posted in the OOC thread, we are going to have MrSaturnUL join the battle, now that his sheet is done. His Beta experienced some technical problems, but is now working fine.

MrSaturnUL, please give me a d20 roll for your initiative, please.

 

[MrSaturnUL]

(Initiative roll bump)
There's a 6.

 

[Psychie]

With your engine power problem straightened out, Cyrus is ordered to immediately launch and join your fellow Orion Squad members as you engage the Invid.

[Silanon]

A slight turn towards the next target, Shock Trooper 2, then the gun pods open fire; a smile on her lips as she finds herself in the midst of battle, as things should be.

 

[Psychie]

The bolts slam into the Shock Trooper, scarring its armor badly, but it is still active.

[Rykon]

Mike fires a single missile from the MM-60 system at Shock Trooper 2.

70MD if it hits.

 

[Psychie]

Mike's missile flies out towards the damaged Shock Trooper, and despite its efforts to dodge, the missile hits home. The armor on the Trooper is critically damaged, but it is still up.

The first four Invid try to line up shots at Mike, and three of the four will hit unless you dodge.

Milo lines up a triple shot on the damaged Shock Trooper 2, and manages to finish it off.

Shock Troopers 7-10 fire on the pair of Jandra and Milo, but Milo manages to evade well enough to only get a minor hit to his hull, doing minimal damage.

D. Rex and Sherwood are up, and Rykon has a defense roll to make.

[Sherwood]

With the volume of incoming fire, Rico once more puts the pair into a evasive maneuver designed to get them out of the way of the attack. "Snake Eyes, it is going to be up to you to evade any more incoming fire or we'll have to soak up the hurt."

Um, Sherwood ? You have not been attacked yet. Do you wish to delay your action?

Also, thanks to the command and control information you are getting from the Arwyn, you all have an additional action/attack per melee round. Make it count!

[Sherwood]

For some reason, I misread the attacks aimed at Milo and Jandra as being at John and Charlie. I'll delay to be able to dodge.

 

[Rykon]

Mike is out of actions and doesn't have a co-pilot. He cannot dodge.

 

[Sherwood]

See above.

 

[Rykon]

I completely missed that. I'll roll then.

Looks like that's still a hit.

 

[Psychie]

Of the four Invid firing on you, only two manage to track on you and are able to hit. The two manage to do a total of 70 MD to your main body.

A bump for D. Rex

 

[D. Rex]

Fingers already readying the next wave of missiles. Aiming them once more at her prior targets.

Target: Shock Troopers 1-5
Missiles: 6x Mini HEAP
Strike: 6
Damage: 160

Spoiler: Ordinance Remaining

Short Range - HE (Medium) 56/

Mini Missiles - HEAP 36/20

Bombs - ?

 

[Psychie]

Charlie fires off a spray of missiles, but for some reason they fail to track properly, and they go off target by a wide margin.

The next four Shock Troopers decide to fire on Charlie and John, and will hit unless you dodge.

This time, the attacks are aimed at me and Charlie, so John will roll the dice to see if he can dodge.

[Psychie]

I'm going to go ahead and give MrSaturnUL a little more time to get online before bumping the fight forward.

 

[MrSaturnUL]

Now in the throe of battle, Cyrus looked at the battle in front of him, as he had a slight frown. The team seemed to be doing ok.... Still....
He took out a radio and spoke into it.
"This is Cyrus Adams, I'm entering battle in my Beta, do any pilots need backup, over?"
After his call in, he got into range and decided to do something about the Invid cluster (3-5). Readying his weapons, he decided to fire 4 MM-16 missiles at one of them. (Shock Trooper 3)

(11 to hit for 270.)

 

[Sherwood]

MrSaturnUL Usually when firing missiles, you roll for each one. So for this attack, you would have rolled a total of 8d6. That way you should be able to get some better damage numbers on the other six dice.

 

[MrSaturnUL]

(Ah, all right. One sec.)

 

[Psychie]

The four missiles fly out and slam into the Shock Trooper, destroying it in a brilliant blast of fire and rubble.

Don't forget that from the command and control feeds you are getting from the ship, everyone has an extra action/attack per round.
