Lots of Running Down Corridors

[Rex]

Rosa

Rosa will give them time to catch up and as they get close go left.

Ben sighs "I'm not much for running...but I guess I have little choice." he ends up jogging trying to catch up to Rosa.

[cybersavant]

Rorexsth will keep pace with Ben and follow Rosa. "I don't see any security cameras, do you?"

[GreyWolfVT]

Ben replies back "I haven't seen any. But they do have robots, and doors that blend into the walls so who knows."

As Ben and Rorexsth catch up to Rosa, she speeds off again. Down the left corridor she zips along on her motorcycle.

All good things must end though....

Coming at Rosa up the corridor are 2 robots! Over 2 metres tall, and hovering upon a floating ball, the robots speed toward her, metal claws grasping outward!

*SPECIMENS -- HAVE. -- BREACHED -- CONTAINMENT.*
*RE-CAPTURE. -- RE-CAPTURE. -- RE-CAPTURE.*

Ben continues trying to catch up to Rosa. "Hopefully you guys have something to stop robots should we encounter any more." he says to Rorexsth as they continue on.

Ben and Rorexsth spot the oncoming robots far ahead of them. Rosa is about halfway between the 2 pairs.

Ben sighs and reaches for his "strange gun" "Speak of the devils. Well at least they aren't Daleks." he keeps moving closer but wants to be ready to shoot at the robots.

Rosa

Rosa punches her bike at the robots, kicking it sideways and out from under her so it slides wheel first into the robots.

This is the sort of thing for which a player would use STORY POINTS!

What EXACTLY would you like Rosa to accomplish here? What's the desired outcome?

This seems a perfect example of creating a "remarkable outcome," so it will cost at least 1 SP, maybe 2, possibly more.

Rorexsth slips his sonic screwdriver into his hand, but holding his hand down, fingers in front, palm facing rear, so that screwdriver is not in visible view. He grips the screwdriver with thumb and pinky.

Her goal is to topple the robots like bowling bins. Using the motorcycle to knock them over. Not sure how many points this should cost, maybe 1 to get the roll and a second to bump her success level.

Okay, targeting the robots with the motorcycle.... We'll use your roll + COORDINATION + TRANSPORT +2d6 for a Story Point.

Motorcycle stunt [2d6]=5

Story Point bonus:
[2d6]=6

5+4+2+6=17 vs. 18 = -1 Failure....but use a Story Point to bump up to Success!

Rosa loses 2 Story Points....

The motorcycle jerks sideways, and Rosa flings herself off!

The motorcycle crashes into the robots, toppling them! But, the smashing machinery bursts into flames!

The robots are crushed and aflame, but so is Rosa's motorcycle.

Is Rosa injured? COORDINATION + ATHLETICS +2d6 =4+1+7=12. Oh, that's bad. Literally a BAD result.

[1d6]=6

Ouch. Let's split it evenly between RESOLVE -3 and COORDINATION -3.

Rosa hits the ground hard, but rises dazed and limping.

1 more SP can be spent to reduce damage to 3. In which case, I will let you choose which stat or stats it applies to.

[GreyWolfVT]

Ben putting his gun away goes to help Rosa to her feet. "Well that's one way to take out some robots, albeit a bit riskier than my shooting them."

[Rex]

Rosa

"Thanks." She takes the offered help from Ben. "I have been called a risk taker." She chuckles.

She will spend 3 SP and take the -3 on Resolve.

[cybersavant]

Rorexsth "They must know we're here now. Options?" He turns back to face the way they came. "Maybe a different hall?"

[TheMyth]

Rosa

"Thanks." She takes the offered help from Ben. "I have been called a risk taker." She chuckles.

She will spend 3 SP and take the -3 on Resolve.

Oh! I like that! The rules are very fast & loose, but it seems to me a HELMET would provide head-focused armor. A minus to RESOLVE implies a head wound....let's reduce to just a -1!

[Rex]

Rosa

Thanks.

"I would expect more to come soon."

She pulls out her side arm.

[GreyWolfVT]

Ben "Well you certainly are living up to that risk taking bit. But yeah I am certain they know we are here as they are the ones that held us captive. But my question is why and who are these people. I doubt it matters what hallway we take they will keep sending robots at us." he states his thoughts on the situation.

[cybersavant]

Rorexsth "then let's backtrack a smidge and take the right corridor."
