Oh! Make up your mind She tries Nalani's cabin, but the door is locked so she ends up in Maggie's one.

Maggie

Yes, backup on the way. Anyone have a spare laser rifle? Otherwise, a shotgun?

She will follow Arnwulf and Pranit.

Recon roll: [1d6]=3 [1d6]=3 plus Recon 1 (and maybe Tactics-Naval 1?)

She is going to analyze the attack/attackers actions once she gets more information.

(Her military background is automatically kicking in: Leadership, Mechanic, Recon, Psychology, Naval tactics, etc.)

As the crew deck stands just before the foray (Details in OOC thread)

On top of the Bow, there can now be heard footsteps. One of the Vacc-suited figures is standing on the window over Noor and pointing a rifle at the glass!

"Noor, get to the lift," Indrani barks. She takes a moment to activate her emergency lockout that prevents anyone but her from using the bridge controls, and then she scoots for the lift and closes the door. There, she will use her override to take the lift, or failing that, open the emergency hatch and climb down.

Pranit initiative:

Tiberius O'Hare

Was going to go to the bridge but it seems those up there are abandoning their posts and coming down.

didn't we invest in bullet proof glass?

"Miss TV personality, perhaps we can requisition your drone? Put some eyes in the skies as it were and see what is going to befall us? Maybe from this room with the young lady?" he coaxes Ulrika to launch her drone through the airlock along with the three suited security team, while she take precautions behind a locked suite.

"Perhaps you can route the video feed via Assana's vacc-suit HUD and she can then verbally describe the situation to our intrepid trio in their suit comms so they are not ambushed from behind?" he suggests. One of the few practical things he can direct.

Nālani hurries to her luggage and scans the pile. Locating Hoshiko's carrier she checks the seals and the battery power for the life-support then, once satisfied the system is working, finds her safe. Entering the code she opens it, takes out her Snub Pistol, Machine Pistol and their ammunition, then locks the safe again.

Be patient Hoshiko. I will let you out when I have seen off these dogs.

Loading the weapons she moves to exit the ship.

Trying the ship's comm-net: I am in the hold and armed. What is the situation? Where am I needed?


Would it be quicker/easier to crack the cargo-bay doors and exit there or take the lift back up to the freezer deck?

Arnwulf initiative check [2d6+1]=6+1=7

Recons from the ladder and aims at one if the intruders with his rifle.

The drone enters the airlock even as it is closing. Ulrika would prefer not to miss the action.
The handset here has an encrypted link to the drone - I can link to the young lady's comms if she is close, or to the ship comms - I've got a cable for downloading.

From the door, the ladder is reachable to the left (with the roof of the passenger deck then stretching beyond that) and to the right is the roof of the passenger quarters. Above you, trying to see onto the bow itself is hard - the angles are not good without climbing onto the roof of the crew deck. There are two torches visible on the roof of the bay, one is illuminating you , and the twinkle of muzzle-flashes.

Incoming fire to be resolved...what are Maggie, Pranit's and the drones actions? n.b Pranit moves immediately after Arnwulf as Arnwulf was blocking the door until he stepped out

Nalani needs to spend two actions getting to the cat crate, one checking it, one to get to the arms crate, one to open it, one to arm herself and one to relock the crate...That's most of 3 full turns...with getting the airlock cycled upstairs, that puts you at the "Arm yourself" step at the moment

Noor is at the lift by the end of one turn; Indrani is passing Noor's window at the end of the same turn. While several "Ping" noises are heard, the glass is "Meteorite Resistant" and the bullets are ricocheting off. However it is designed to take single impacts not a full magazine of rifle rounds so anything could happen...it just hasn't happened yet...although it does look like there are bullets embedded in the glass' surface now. The lift is showing that it is on the cargo deck.

While the airlock was depressurising, Ulrika and Tiberius can move to the door of Nalani's cabin. It is locked. Maggie's and Pranit's doors are just shut. Indrani's door is also showing as locked.

Pranit will boost up approximately 4 meters.


Then give orders to spread out and for Maggie to cut left or right depending on situation
Leadership Roll: (+3 skill, +1 INT) Effect +2. Should give Maggie and Arnwulf a extra die to throw for their roll this round. (roll 3 die and drop the lowest)

Pranit will Fire his assault shotgun with HEAP loaded, letting his gyro steady (+1 to hit) at the man who look to be the most alert or with a ready weapon, if all ready, the most deadly weapon.
one for skill 3 for Dex

Then use his boost suit to stay approximately in the area.
+2 more if I get to use vacc suit skill

In the following, please defer to Noor's actions at the lift first, as she (hopefully) got there first.

Indrani overrides the lift door to open it, scoots inside, and hangs on the ladder while she closes the bridge door, locks it, and locks the lift so they don't get squashed. Indrani knows that there are sensors in the lift shaft, but she trusts nothing about the ship's computer at this point.

Arnwulf

Climbs ladder and charges, all guns blazing which disappointingly is not in full auto. Still he targets a figure, probably the one shooting at them.

Arnwulf fires rifle [2d6+2]=11+2=13 damage [3d10]=15

Noor

"They can't shoot that out right? It's a damn spaceship!" Noor moves to the lift, calls it and watches in concern as Indrani races about locking things down. "It's coming, it's coming. Hurry!"

If Indrani gets there before the lift arrives, Noor steps back to allow the Captain to do her thing. Either way, Noor follows into the lift or shaft. "Engineering. We need to take off."

"I don't know if it'll hold, but I'm not about to find out," Indrani mutters as she opens the lift door. "Let's go."

Maggie


[1d6]=3 [1d6]=3 [1d6]=6 drop the 3, so 9

She will follow Pranit's directions, and use whatever weapon she was handed (or perhaps picked up along the way).


player slightly confused

The charge onto the hull sees Arnwulf swinging on the ladder and firing his rifle at the firers on the roof of the pit - The fire from one of the yahoos shooting in stops and a weapon cartwheels down as it's owner drops it. Where the owner is is anyone's guess. The "thunk" sound suggests that the shooter's colleague has got you in his sights, at least briefly - and the subsequent hiss suggests that he's holed you vacc-suit - but the hiss stops almost immediately and pressure isn't falling. You can see the hit or feel anything hurting so you guess it has hit something behind your right shoulder.

Pranit's flying exit catches the attackers by surprise. The person firing at the bridge window is reloading as the shotgun strikes him in the lower body from behind. The exploding oxygen bottle adds to his woes. The other three vacc-suited figures on the bow all scatter for cover or just shoot - two shooting wildly, the third abandoning what looks like a charge of some sort as he slides off the edge and out of sight
The Camera gets outside and Tiberius watches Ulrika look to orientate the vehicle - getting a good view of the puff of air escaping from Arnwulf's suit - and watching it stop as the sealant bubbles out.

Maggie, armed with nothing but a dirk, seems to have brought a knife to a gunfight, and stays in the airlock doorway. Peering upward, there are two people with torches (only Arnwulf seems to be illuminated) and one active shooter with some form of automatic weapon.

---

Inside, the window above the left-most seat has a body land on it - the occupant appears to be in a bad way as there is a gaping hole in the rear of the Vacc Suit in which it was clad.

Indrani has opened the lift door and she and Noor have clambered into the space - Noor with astounding grace (12 rolled and +2 DM too - but a DM of -2 for hasty!) - while Indrani is more sedate (just making it in her haste), turning to shut the door behind her.

Nalani has managed to pick up her weapons in the Hold and Reven is still firing up the power.

The queen announces: I am complying with a writ to admit bailiffs at the passenger airlock.

Slamming her safe shut Nālani runs to the cargo bay control panel and starts the decompression cycle, in preparation for opening the cargo hatch.

Over the crew-comm channel she announces: I am decompressing the hold and going out.

Indrani keys her comm. "Hun, I am invoking the Captain's override on all access. No one enters this ship without my personal authorization. Please execute this order immediately."

Arnwulf

Arnwulf fires rifle [2d6+2]=4+2=6 damage [3d10]=14
Arnwulf bonus roll from Pranit skill [1d6]=2

Charging across the deck of the hull, the marine closes with the next opponent, one his right hand side and fires again at the person and trying to dodge and roll against further incoming fire.

Arnwulf athletics check [2d6]=9

Pranit boosts straight ahead yaaing and jinking up, down, left, right to confuse gunners towards the man with what seems to be a charge and fires to the right at a combatant with weapons.

Shotgun, 1 for skill, 3 for dex, 1 for gyro: [2d6+5]=4+5=9

Roll to remain flying right; [2d6+3]=10+3=13

"That's right keep them having to guess Arnwulf, Maggie watch our back and let us know what else is happening. "

Leadership: [2d6+4]=4+4=8 I believe the effect is 0 with a 8
