We should try to get him out but I doubt Parsen, Tambo or Lachanal could do it themselves. The whole crisis is, from the PoV of the Skitarii, finished so the three of them have no business staying here.
I guess if the truck that lead H. in in the first place is still there, Lachanal could persuade the driver to get the crate back on the truck?
btw @GM, did the whole power shutdown have any impact in the end? I don't remember H using it and we in the sewers were already plunged in darkness

Fair. Point, I assumed the truck to have departed at this point, GM's call. Otherwise, Lachanal will let Tambo and Parsen vanish, and come back with a PDF contingent from the station to go fetch the driver I assumed the truck which tyres I blew up was a random one and hope they weren't the same

I think we'd say Lachanal had his own truck since Lachanal wouldn't want the driver to know he was up to anything.
Good idea about trying to get the driver to help them drive back and pick up the crate. By all means give it a try!
The skitari WERE on their way to the power station when they heard the mine go off. So in a way, you all canceled out the advantage you had created. Good recovery though.

Oh dear. Now they are on alert.
We could theoretically just wait until the scheme plays out before worrying about an ex-fil?
At that point, it is a Fait Accompli and our new Governor can help us out of the jam? Just a very, unexciting thought.

Very interesting thought. But it sure depends on a LOT of IFs happening. I don't think H is going to be able to wait around for days on end hiding in a box!
You all are of course welcome to talk to Strausberg again. You also have a pretty nice safehouse to fall back to and wait things out to see what happens.

Easy: I think you posted in the wrong topic.
@GM: as I as a player struggle to evaluate this: Tambo has the Element of surprise, a lot more range with his longlas and if they run towards him, they run into Parsen and Mirage. So I would assume I can take the 5 PDF guys out. Or is this wildly off?

Yes exactly. This is a great situation for Tambo to put his sniping skills into practice as he has the element of surprise.
The only question is, does he want to try to eliminate all 5 targets in one round? He could do that with a multi-attack, with each successive target increasing the difficulty by +2.
That would take some impressive rolling to pull that off, but not outside the realm of possibility. More likely outcome is that you would get between 2-4 targets hit in that first round where you have the element of surprise.
BTW: Will take a break from posting until Friday so we can all enjoy the holiday! See you all then

A mechanical question:
Do I first make the call that I make a multiattack on.. lets say 3 guys and then either hit all three or miss all three with no in between
OR:
Say I make a multiattack, roll and then we see how many he hit depending on the result?

I think when you do a multi attack you declare it, then you roll separately for each target and the Difficulty increases by 2 for each subsequent target.
Base difficulty for first target is 3, (+1 DN for shooting at night). Second target will be DN 5. Etc Etc. You have 3 glory and 2 wrath to burn so its within the realm of possibility. Let me know if you want me to do the roll or not. Either way fine with me!

So anyway folks, I have an exciting announcement to make for the new year.
I'm going to start building a community on Discord where people can play TTRPGs using text chat and a dice roller.
You all can be the first ones to get in on this, and I can give out admin roles if anyone is interested in helping me build up.
My goal is after the current game is finished up I'll be able to keep running games at the new location.
Hope to see you all there, and then see if we can expand it out further to the wider Dakka community and beyond!

Thanks man! I'll keep the current game going on these forums and then will advertise more broadly for the new set up. My goal is to just have a place where people can play off beat TTRPGs like (Warhammer based stuff) in a text format with a dice roller for support. We'll see what happens!

Ah, I see, 0 wounds is not the end to the PDF guys. Hmm... that's... unfortunate
Let's see if Parsen fares better.
I'll edit the end of my last post to better reflect that Tambo did not just get up after a job well done, but is severely hit instead.
Edit: rolled a 4 and a 6 for Determination. So I should still be on. Do I get this right that thanks to the 6 I don't gather shock? Or did I missunderstand?
Anyway: Parsen! Save us!

Hey guys, sorry for the prolonged absence, christmas holidays didn't really make me think about our little team's endeavors I'll cook something to try and get us out of here Tambo, no worries. Or maybe you can worry after all lol By the way @GM, is the autocannon's ammo visible from outside the shed? Like, can Parsen peek from some corner and have a direct line of sight on them? And @Pyro what combat gear do you have left that Parsen could use to make it out of the combat? Also, is my ability to come back to life due to sheer spite, or is it related to some kind of drug Parsen could use on Tambo to patch him up?

Pyro: Good determination roll. You are down to 1 remaining shock and 1 remaining wound. So, not dying which is good. After a short "rest" he will recover all wounds without medical attention (as long as he doesn't hit again!)
Skeptic: Yes, you would be able to see the autocannon and the ammunition. It's lying on the ground near where the soldiers are. Parson does have direct line of sight, though he is out of range with his shot gun. He would be able to sprint up close enough and take a shot though.
And yes, his ability to not die after losing all wounds is most likely out of spite, but if you want to explain it with some drug that is also fine!

I was planning on using the drugs on Tambo to bring him back up but I feel it's a bit cheesy considering it's supposed to be only usable on my own demise. I'll do something else. So new set of questions: I'm assuming the area is surrounded in grass? I don't remember the weather being talked about: is it perhaps, by chance, hot and/or dry? I could set fire to the grass around if it were the case using the good ol' cigars/lighter Parsen always carries to cause a distraction...

@ Skeptic: just to be clear: Tambo is hurt, but he is very much still alive, contious and able to fight.
Edit: @ DM: the idea to shoot the Autocannon ammo sounded not to bad. If Tambo manages to hit it, how many of the PDF soldiers would be caught up in the blast? And how likely is it that the car would survive?

I'm not sure about how basic chemistry and physics works but hey...this is science fiction! Make it a called shot total difficulty is 6. Blast should take out the remainder of the PDF soldiers.

@Pyro oh mb, I understood he was wounded enough as to be unable to fire his firearm. That would've changed many things lol. That being said, shooting the ammo was to kill the fleeing goon mostly, Parsen doesn't really care about the PDFs or the autocannon that much. So if you're able to shoot the ammo, feel free to try to shoot the fugitive too

You can rewrite your post if you want SkepticAllosaurus!
Of course, there's nothing inherently wrong with just throwing a stun grenade to distract them. I can count that as a successful interaction attack which will make them all hindered next round. So if they get a chance to shoot again it will be even harder to hit anything.
Also...the vehicle would likely remain operational after a minor explosion like that

Alright folks. So in the interest of speeding things along toward a conclusion, I rolled for Tambo. He got a wrath critical and succeeded in taking out the remaining PDF soldiers.
And Lachanal starts to get an inkling that something is not quite right but won't be able to warn the team in time to effect the next two hours.
So...to wrap things up. I need to know if Tambo and Parsen are going to try and rescue H, or if they are going to exfiltrate on their own. That decision will steer us toward a fitting conclusion to this little endeavor.

To be honest, Parsen wouldn't bother that much by himself. He could very well be convinced otherwise, but his default stance would be to get back to HQ, and attend to his regular matters. Seeing Markov's incompetence lately and with some goons leaving him, he has some sorting to do within his ranks. @Pyro, let me see how you can convince the old man to help you! @GM are the autocannon and the van still usable or not? The ammo is obviously not, but let's see what Parsen can scavenge

The van should be operable as it would only have taken some superficial damage. I'll give you one remaining point of ammo for the autogun,
