Noted. Will do if the opportunity to move on happens before you are able to add the rolls.

Round 6

Silvestri risks another pyro blast into his diminished foe. The fiery discharge rips the artificial entity to shreds and scatters parts all about! (14pt. dmg – #3 Destroyed)

Needle continues to swing his axe into the construct (#4), but the blade is deflected off the casing of the Lightly-damaged humanoid. (Miss)

Urlando returns to the sound-dampened chamber and bashes the head of Anton’s still Formidable attacker with his morningstar! (#6, 6pt. dmg)

Podo sends a telepathic signal to Anton before thrusting his spear into the Damaged aggressor (#2, 5pt. dmg) and turning to move towards Needle!

Kurot follows the large fungoid to assist Needle, hacking rapidly into the unscathed masked android! (#5, Hit/miss/miss = 6pt. dmg)

Denslow waits for the approach of Podo’s opponent (#2), but has his attack blocked by the rival’s powerful arms! (Miss)

Anton spins to another target after he sees Silvestri destroy his primary. He brings the hammer down onto the shoulder of the antagonist (#6, 2pt. + CRIT dmg)

OOC: Will retro CRIT.

Saiph and Max reach the outer wall of the Entry Chamber. Exhausted, Max lies against the floor slipping in and out of consciousness. (For drama, no additional damage to character)



---

Upon Podo’s withdrawal from combat, his adversary (#2) scores a solid punch (DMG 11) as the plantient moves away! It then advances and tries to strike Denslow but fails to connect! (Miss)

Pummeled by Urlando and Anton’s weapons, the humanoid (#6) randomly selects Urlando as its target for a paltry bump across his arm. (DMG 1)

After deflecting Needle’s attack, the red-masked construct (#4) grips both of its hands and swipes down against the human’s left leg, breaking the femur and dropping Needle to the floor in great pain! (DMG 2+10 CRIT to break leg = 12)

OOC: Needle’s left leg is broken, resulting in a permanent -5’ reduction in movement. He moves at half speed until it is fully healed.

The enemy hit by Kurot (#5) counters his axe strike with a violent slam into his midsection! (DMG)

OOC: End of Round 6

Saiph gets Max's attention, pointing to an area on the wall.

"They touched that spot and the wall opened, like you did for the inside corridor. Do you think you could give it a go?"

[Zhym]

Kurot continues rapidly hacking at the android.

!!!

10 is a sunder weapon CRIT, so go with a 9: +2d6 dmg, shatters leg. -10ft movement.

Also, please make a Round 6 action.

[GrapeApe]

Podo

Rushing to Needle's side, he watches as the being snaps Needles leg like a twig. Understanding what great strength these creatures must have, he decided to use some of his own charging #4 as he rushes forward slamming the butt of his spear into the creatures emotionless face. OOC: If we can use the charge rule on pg 96 I will do so

Is this dice roller broken? lol

Gritting through the pain Needle will try again to swing while prone if possible.

Round 7

Urlando arcs his Morningstar into the chest of the red-masked aggressor, inflicting severe damage and showering the area with shards of metal! (#6, 9+9 CRIT = 18pt. dmg)

Denslow damages his opponent while reciting an ancient line of lore from an obscure heroic myth! (#2, 6pt. dmg)

Silvestri apprehensive about using his pyro powers for another attack, the psionist uses his ancient energy weapon, but fails to drill the humanoid. (Miss)

Kurot repeats his chopping into the still formidable construct, attempting to bring it down! (#5, 6pt. dmg)

Podo make a desperate move and charges into one of Needle’s assailants! (#4, attack takes place as the next round’s action for Podo.)

Anton tries to compound his previous devastating attack, but the cloaked android knocks the hammer aside! (Miss)

Needle painfully swings his axe for a counterattack but falls short and agonizes over his broken leg. (Miss)

Max rests on the stone floor while Saiph ponders how to open the wall. He inquires with the neuronaut about using the same method initially used to access the alcove corridor.



---

Denslow’s foe tries to smash into his bark, but the plantient’s hide is resilient and deflects the blow! (Miss)

Unable to make a clear decision on who to attack, the damaged rival (#6) misses against Anton and Urlando. (Miss)

Taking advantage of the prone human, both humanoids (#4, #5) ignore Podo and Kurot to smash Needle’s torso! (DMG 14+14=28)

OOC: Needle has left the game and asked for his character to make a heroic sacrifice.
