Location: Destroyers
HQ.
{GM Note: I am much
better at photo & art manipulation than I am at outright designing and
drawing from scratch. Starting with the cover I am going to experiment with
using Heroforge for coming up with more artwork for your enjoyment. I can’t
replicate every costume exactly, but I hope I come close enough that you are
accepting of it. If you can’t stand how I have done your character in Heroforge
please let me know. I will try to improve it, if that is impossible then I
won’t use it for your character. Thanks}.
[22] Annihilator fired a power blast at StrikeForce. “Destroyers execute
Gamma – Alpha – Omega, now!”
BRRZZT! It hit.
{GM Note: Hits for 10 damage, armor stopped 6 and StrikeForce rolled with
4 points of damage}
"@$£*"
cursed Dr Wildman (in appropriate comic code dialogue). The clever plan had
fouled up. He shook his head in disbelief, how do you miss something that big?!
Dr Wildman cleared
his head of questions and concentrated, focusing on keeping the portal open.
His hope was that the Supernatural Sentry would quickly turn around and fly
straight back. Noticing that Behemoth's attention was now on the unfortunate
Erdbeben he kept the portal static in the hope that when Adamas returned, he
would fly straight back into the lumbering pink bulk's rear.
[14] Adamas gritted his teeth in frustration and flew back
through the portal, he relieved his anger on the enemy standing in front of the
portal. He fired his eye blasts at Behemoth.
{GM Note: Adamas
autofire is only 5X. He can’t increase it to 6X, Moving then holding you action
except for counterblast isn’t allowed. I could have waited until later in the
turn but since Adamas couldn’t see who moved on the other side of the portal I
chose this action as best suiting the situation and the instructions provided.
His high initiative doesn’t align with Adamas taking a wait and see approach.
Please remember if you want to hold your action that means your movement is
held too.}
ZZWWT!! First power
blast hit
{GM Note: 9 points of
damage which Behemoth rolled with all of it}
ZZWWT!! Second power

{GM Note: 7 points of
damage which Behemoth rolled with all of it}
ZZWWT!! Third power

{GM Note: 8 points of

ZZWWT!! Fourth power

{GM Note: 7 points of

ZZWWT!! Fifth power

{GM Note: 6 points of
damage which Behemoth rolled with all of it}
[12] Chrysalis fired three poison darts at StrikeForce
PFFT! First dart hit.
{GM Note: the dart is Bio damage. StrikeForce’s
armor doesn’t protect against Bio. StrikeForce must make an Endurance save with
-1 modifier to avoid taking 4 points of damage. If he failed his save, he would
continue to take 4 points of damage each turn until he does make his Endurance
Save. StrikeForce rolled with the save, adding 8 points to his save target
(13+8-1) of 20. StrikeForce rolled a 7 he made his save.}
PFFT! second dart hit.
{GM Note: the dart is Bio damage. StrikeForce rolled
with the save, adding 8 points to his save target (13+8-1) of 20. StrikeForce
rolled a 13 he made his save. If he hadn’t rolled with it, he would have
failed}
PFFT! third dart missed.
[11] Annihilator said, “StrikeForce you are tougher than you looked.
Looks like I’ll need to melt your armor off you first.” He fired his
disintegrator ray at him
ZOM! The ray beam missed.
Annihilator opened the door that Patty Plus was in front of. He flew
through the door down the corridors.
[ 9] Annihilator flew outside the building up to the top of the roof.
There he saw that the hanger doors had been completely iced over. He said into
the comms “the hanger been sealed. Electrocutioner, I need to up here to open
it up. I will try find who did this. Iron Maiden hurry up with extracting those
files. We need you to start our ride so we can get out of here.”
Iron Maiden cursed and said. “Okay, Okay, I am hurrying. I will have the
crypto-code running soon. All necessary files have been extracted. I need to
launch the hard drive fraggers then I am out of here!”
Annihilator couldn’t see any flying superheroes or aircraft. He smelled
the air for a scent that would tip him off to the source of all this ice. “hmm,
There I got you now” he muttered.
ZOM! The disintegrator ray beam missed the bird he had smelled. The bird
clawed loudly as it flew away as fast as it could.
Dreamweaver and Blizzard breathe again as they were relieved that the
Crusader Copter hadn’t been found.
{GM Note: Annihilator had to make a perception test
to try to find the Copter with another one of his senses since he couldn’t see
or hear the Crusader Copter because of Dreamweaver’s illusions provided but
vision and sound components. He succeeded in his perception test so he could
attack with a -3.}
{On his attack he fumbled his attack. On the fumble
table he rolled wrong target. For this situation a bird was the wrong target.
He needed a 10 or less to hit the wrong target. He rolled an 11. He missed the
bird}
[ 8] Ratman started sniffing the air. He had been attacked by an
invisible assailant. He didn’t have to rely on is sight to fight. Not with his
acute sense smelling and hearing. He would find his prey by its smell.
{GM Note: Ratman is making a perception test to acquire a target. 4.6 on
page 107. He gets a +3 to his roll for his acute sense of smell. He rolled 20
twice which is a fumble. On a Critical Fumble the character perceives nothing,
and therefore can’t attack the target and suffers a defense penalty of -3 or -6
depending on the situation (see 4.7.2). Since he is unable see Black Orchid, he
will get a -3 to his defense if she attacks him}
Ratman was frustrated. How could he not smell it? He listened closely. He
heard breathing where no one was standing. He climbed the ceiling following the
sounds he heard. He would catch his prey.
{GM Note: In 3.1.5 Perception Tasks on page 104 it states each character
is allowed one free save per turn to perceive things within ranger of their
senses, using the best sense available to them. A character may call for an
additional perception check at the cost of an action, if they want to try again
on that turn. Ratman did. This time he past his perception task to acquire a
target. Next turn he can attack Black Orchid with a -3 to hit.}
[ 7] Blizzard pointed his hand at Annihilator. The Artic Crusader’s hand
started to shake. It shook so fast that it started to blur and the sound of
buzzing could be heard.
VARR! Blizzard fired a vibration blast at Annihilator. It hit.
{GM Note: He needed an 11 to hit. Blizzard rolled a
1 and a 16. That is a normal hit. The vibe blast struck Annihilator’s
forcefield for 16 points of damage. More than half got through his force field.
Annihilator rolled with the rest of the damage}
[ 6] Shapeshifter stretched out her body wrapping her torso around
StrikeForce’s waist and legs. He had his arms free but he was immobilized.
{GM Note: Shapeshifter has grappled StrikeForce in a hold. He can
counterattack with -3 to hit or try to break free from the hold. Because he is
immobilized, he receives a -6 to his Defense.}
[ 6] Electrocutioner teleported to the roof of the building. He fired an
electro-bolt at the block of ice.
ZZWSSTT! A solid hit. The ice exploded completely. The hanger doors were free to
be opened.
{GM Note: Since the ice was non-sentient object, all
Electrocutioner need to roll was less than 20. He rolled a 1 and 19 for a
critical hit. The critical success was a solid hit which provided a +3 points
of damage to his damage roll}
[ 5] Chrysalis continued firing poison darts at StrikeForce, who was
being held by Shapeshifter.
PFFT! First dart hit.
{GM Note: the poison dart is Bio damage. StrikeForce
rolled with the save, adding 7 points to his save target (13+7-1) of 19.
StrikeForce rolled a 3 he made his save.}
PFFT! second dart hit.
{GM Note: the poison dart is Bio damage. StrikeForce
rolled with the save, adding 6 points to his save target (13+6-1) of 18.
StrikeForce rolled a 14 he made his save. If he hadn’t rolled with it, he would
have failed}
PFFT! third dart hit.
{GM Note: the poison dart is Bio damage. StrikeForce
rolled with the save, adding 6 points to his save target (13+6-1) of 18.
StrikeForce rolled a 11 he made his save.}
PFFT! fourth dart hit.
{GM Note: the poison dart is Bio damage. StrikeForce
rolled with the save, adding 6 points to his save target (13+5-1) of 17.
StrikeForce rolled a 6 he made his save.}
[ 5] Black Orchid continued her assault on Ratman. She
fired a vacuum blast at him.
ZUMPT!
The blast made a solid hit. Ratman felt a bone
curdling, energy draining, chill run through his body. He hung onto the ceiling
with his claws painting as he suddenly felt very exhausted. He continued
listening for his prey. Soon it will be his turn to attack.
{GM Note: Black Orchid
received a bonus +3 to hit because of Ratman’s critical fumble in his attempt
to acquire her as a target. She needed an 18. She rolled a 1 and a 7. Her
critical success was a solid hit of +3 to her draining points. She rolled 20
points of drain to Power Points. She reduced Ratman’s power points by 23
points.}
[ 4] Realizing that he had not made it to his
preferred target, but he still had a Destroyer that needed to be dealt with,
StrikeForce continued fighting Shapeshifter. He kept his senses active and
continued attempting to move but unfortunately since he was being wrapped up by
Shapeshifter, he was a stationary target. He also didn’t want to allow one of
the other Destroyers get the drop on him. He targeted Shapeshifter with two
attacks.
WHIF! The first Escrima attack missed.
{GM Note: StrikeForce
had a -3 modifier for being in a grapple hold and his normal -1 for a dual
Escrima attack. He needed a 12 or less to hit. He rolled a 14.}
KRAK! The second Escrima attack hit.
{GM Note: StrikeForce
had a -3 modifier for being in a grapple hold and his normal -1 for a dual
Escrima attack. He needed a 12 or less to hit. He rolled a 10. He rolled 15
points of damage. Shapeshifter’s pliable body acted like armor stopping most of
the damage. She rolled with the remaining damage.}
Shapeshifter smiled as she continued to hold
StrikeForce in her grip.
[ 4] "Iron Maiden seems REALLY interested in
that keyboard," Patty thought to herself, "and I don't have time to
go back to my body in the next building and join this fight in the flesh.
Hmm..."
She moved herself
between Iron Maiden and the computer she was working on, keeping her astral
body visible to make it harder for Iron Maiden to see the keyboard and monitor.
Patty also began waving her hands in front of Iron Maiden's face and yelling
"Nanny, nanny, boo boo ferrous face!!!"
[ 4] Iron Maiden released sounds of frustration. “Okay, I have gotten
enough of this done. We have to see how good the CHESS Techs really are.” She
stood up and made a vulgar hand gesture at Patty Plus. She triggered her jet
boots as she ran through the doorway. She took the hallway and stairs in leaps
and bounds as she moved upstairs.
Seeing Erdbeben take
the fight to Behemoth, Strike Force was impressed with the new heroes' bravery.
"Well, that sure is pitting your head in the lions mouth." He thought
to himself.
[ 2] Erdbeben could feel his stomach slowly drop to
the floor as he realized that he had just given Behemoth one of the strongest
vibro-blasts that he'd been able to generate since acquiring his powers and the
mountain of a man, if you could call him a man, didn't even flinch. And now, he
was standing right in front of him...
Reacting more out of
pure fear than reason and logic, Erdbeben blasted Behemoth with two more vibro
attacks
VARR! The first vibe blast hit.
{GM Note: Erdbeben needed a 13 or less on his multi attack. He rolled a
10. Erdbeben roll 15 points of damage. Behemoth rolled with all the damage.}
VARR! The second vibe blast hit.
{GM Note: Erdbeben needed a 13 or less on his multi attack. He rolled a
9. Erdbeben roll 10 points of damage. Behemoth rolled with all the damage.}
Erdbeben slipped out
of the door of the room, into a hallway, he began put some distance between
himself and the, well... Behemoth. Unknowingly to himself, Erdbeben was
screaming as he ran. Some would later say they could hear screaming like a
little girl coming from somewhere in the building.
[ 2] Rubicon set his pistol to normal and fired his
pistol at Chrysalis and Ratman with 4 shots.
{GM Note: Rubicon’s
pistol doesn’t have the autofire modifier on his pistol. It can be added in the
future with CP}
BLAM! The first pistol shot at Chrysalis missed.
{GM Note: Firing 4 shots with the pistol is a -9 to
hit for each shot. Rubicon needed a 1 to hit Chrysalis. He rolled a 17}
BLAM! The second pistol shot at Chrysalis missed.
{GM Note: Firing 4 shots with the pistol is a -9 to
hit for each shot. Rubicon needed a 1 to hit Chrysalis. He rolled a 17 a second
time}
BLAM! The third pistol shot at Ratman missed.
{GM Note: Firing 4 shots with the pistol is a -9 to
hit for each shot. Rubicon received a +3 to hit because of Ratman’s critical
fumble in trying to acquire Black Orchid as a target. Rubicon needed a 4 to hit
Ratman. He rolled a 19}
BLAM! The fourth pistol shot at Ratman missed.
{GM Note: Firing 4 shots with the pistol is a -9 to
hit for each shot. Rubicon received a +3 to hit because of Ratman’s critical
fumble in trying to acquire Black Orchid as a target. Rubicon needed a 4 to hit
Ratman. He rolled an 18}
Rubicon did not perceive
what Iron Maiden had been doing at the computer or that Patty had moved there.
{GM Note: Rubicon
needed an 11 or less on his perception task test. He rolled a 14}
M.I.S.H.A. sprung
from Dr. Wildman's portal - WHOOMPF!
Right into the
massive hand of BEHEMOTH.
<<?!?!?!?!>>
M.I.S.H.A. attempted
claw, claw, bite Behemoth with multi-action.
He pushed his attacks.
WHIF! The first claw attack missed.
{GM Note: M.I.S.H.A. received -6 to his attacks for
the multi-action. He needed a 6 to hit. M.I.S.H.A. rolled a 20 and a 2. This is
a miss but not a critical fumble.}
WHIF! The second claw attack missed.
{GM Note: M.I.S.H.A. received -6 to his attacks for
the multi-action. He needed a 6 to hit. M.I.S.H.A. rolled a 10.}
CHOMP! The third attack which was a bite hit.
{GM Note: M.I.S.H.A. received -6 to his attacks for
the multi-action. He needed a 6 to hit. M.I.S.H.A. rolled a 1 and 4. This is a
critical hit. On the Critical Success table, he rolled a 16 which resulted in
Behemoth being knocked off balance. Behemoth suffered a -3 to his defense until
his next turn. M.I.S.H.A rolled 23 points of damage. Behemoth rolled with most
of it but did that damage he was visibly hurt.}
Behemoth bellowed in pain. “Ouch! You hurt me
you stupid dog!”
[ 2] Dreamweaver fired a TK blast at Electrocutioner.
WHIF! The TK blast missed. Dreamweaver cried out in pain. She strained her
arm in the attempt to attack Electrocutioner.
{GM Note: Dreamweaver needed 12 or less to hit. She
rolled a 20 and 15. On the critical fumble table she rolled an 11 which is an
arm strain. She suffered 1 point of damage. She rolled with the task adding 5
to the save target. She received a -1 for the damage, (11+5-1= 15) Dreamweaver
needed make an Endurance save of 15 or less. She rolled a 19. Her left arm is
now useless.
[ 1] Behemoth yelled “Adamas, I will get you and your stupid little dog
next but first I have to take out that Referee!” He ran out the door going the
same direction that Erdbeben had gone. He caught up with Erdbeben taking a
swing at him with his powerful fist.
WHIF! The punch missed.
{GM Note: Behemoth needed a 10 or less. He rolled an
18.}

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Woo Boo! New issue!
I'll work on my reply soon.
Jamey
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Argh! not only do I
miss, I'm now far away from the battle... Dr. Wildman, calling Dr. Wildman
Stat!
Jon
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Dr. Wildman, Calling
Dr. Wildman... Stat!
Jon
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
I agree, Dr. Wildman,
hurry up, We need the Big Guy Stat. I am pretty sure that Erdbeben would
appreciate it as well. StrikeForce did not make it to his preferred target, but
he wasn't stopped too far away from her.
Jamey
---------------------------------------------------------------------
OOC: 😂😂😂
All good plans eh...ooops!
"@$£*"
cursed Dr Wildman in appropriate comic code dialogue. The clever plan had
fouled up. He shook his head in disbelief, how do you miss something that big?!
Dr Wildman cleared
his head of questions and concentrated, focusing on keeping the portal open.
His hope was that the Supernatural Sentry would quickly turn around and fly
straight back. Noticing that Behemoth's attention was now on the unfortunate
Erdbeben he kept the portal static in the hope that when Adamas returned, he
would fly straight back into the lumbering pink bulk's rear.
OOC: Dr Wildman will
keep the spell active as his action. Aim for the green glowing hole in the
sky...
Steve
--------------------------------------------------------------------
So Adamas is staying
under Dr. Wildman's mind control for this turn?
Tom
----------------------------------------------------------------------
If Adamas has not
engaged Behemoth by the time it comes around to her turn, The Black Orchid will
create a 3 foot ball of darkness around Behemoth's head.
If it looks like
"Plan A" is back in action, she will continue her assault on Ratman.
Marc
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
I think Adamas is out
of range of the Amulet as soon as he pops through the portal...
Steve
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
You are right, he is
currently out of range. So mind control is gone.
Tom
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Realizing that he had
not made it to his preferred target, but he still had a Destroyer that needed
to be dealt with, StrikeForce will continue fighting Shapeshifter. He will keep
his senses active and and continue moving, so as not to be a stationary target.
He also doesn't want to allow one of the other Destroyers get the drop on him.
He will target Shapeshifter with two attacks. Seeing Erdbeben take the fight to
Behemoth, Strike Force is impressed with the new heroes' bravery. "Well,
that sure is pitting your head in the lions mouth." He thinks to himself.
OOC: When/if he has
taken care of Shapeshifter, he will move on to Iron Maiden if she is still
active.
Steve, It was a good
plan, but unfortunately, no plan survives fist contact unchanged. Keep swinging
my friend.
Jamey
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
What options does
Adamas have?
Jon
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
He is on the other
side of the portal. So he has to either
fly through the portal or fly from the Refuge Islands to the Destroyers HQ.
His ethereal vision
can't see through the portal so he will have to find a target when reenters the
room. With his high initiative there is a good chance that Behemoth will be
still standing in front of the portal.
Let me know if you
have any other questions.
Tom
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Erdbeben could feel
his stomach slowly drop to the floor as he realized that he had just given
Behemoth one of the strongest vibro-blasts that he'd been able to generate
since acquiring his powers and the mountain of a man, if you could call him a
man, didn't even flinch. And now, he was standing right in front of him...
Reacting more out of
pure fear than reason and logic, Erdbeben blasts Behemoth with two more vibro
attacks before trying to slip out of the door of the room, presumably into a
hallway, so that he can at least put some distance between himself and the,
well... Behemoth.
OOC: Erdbeben will
attack Behemoth twice (-3 per each attack) and attempt to exit the room through
the door to the upper right of his position. If it is a hallway, he will move
to this maximum amount and see if big B follows him or gets distracted by others
in the room.
Paul
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Am I in control now?
Jon
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Are any of us ever in
control Jon? 😂😂😂
Yes you are...go, go,
go!
Steve
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Deep... deep...
philosophical question
Marc
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Bunch of clowns in
this group I see, very funny....
Adamas grits his
teeth in frustration and flies back through the portal, holding his action to
relieve his anger on the next enemy to move, whoever that might be... 6X
Powerblast Autofire.
Jon
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
"Iron Maiden
seems REALLY interested in that keyboard," Patty thought to herself,
"and I don't have time to go back to my body in the next building and join
this fight in the flesh. Hmm..."
She moved herself
between Iron Maiden and the computer she was working on, keeping her astral
body visible to make it harder for Iron Maiden to see the keyboard and monitor.
Patty also began waving her hands in front of Iron Maiden's face and yelling
"Nanny, nanny, boo boo ferrous face!!!"
OOC: It's probably blazingly
obvious, but my goal is to either completely prevent Iron Maiden from doing
whatever she is trying to do on the computer or else make it much more
difficult.
Best,
Shane
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
All,
Sorry for the late response!
OOC:
He'll set his pistol
to normal and fire his pistol on autofire at Chrysalis and Ratman for 4 shots.
If possible, I want to have Rubicon perceive
if he notices Iron Maiden by the computer and Patty. If he can, he'll attempt to Identify
Tech. Demy will call out to others,
"Watch Maiden!" also letting them know what the terminal is (if he
knows).
M.I.S.H.A. springs
from Dr. Wildman's portal - WHOOMPF!

M.I.S.H.A. attempt
claw, claw, bite Electrocutioner with multi-action. He'll push these attacks if he can.
