    As the vehicle appears, 3 quickly gets behind the nearest wall, peeking out of the cover to shoot the crossbow in the direction of the vehicle's escort.

    -Tetra-
    Tetra tries to duck under cover, she doesn't really feel like getting shot.

    Lucca hits the deck, waiting for the gunfire to subside. (Athletics to dodge?)

    Reynolds takes aim at the Apex driving the nearest vehicle and fires, feeling the brief rush of heat as a plasma bolt leaps from his carbine.

    Phoenix-3 fires at one of the Apex guards, who leaps out of the way vigorously. The guards begin to make moves toward cover...
    [Phoenix-3: Shoot 4, Roll 0--vs.--Athletics 2, Roll 1: Net +1, Apex Escort (Group) takes 1 Phys. Stress]

    ... As does Tetra, slipping behind the remains of a very thick wall; she ought to be safe from the bullets for the time being.
    [Tetra: Athletics 1, Roll 4--vs.--Shoot 3, Roll -1: Net +3, Cover Advantage gained (Tetra has cover against the next attack)]

    Lucca, on the other hand, dives behind a lump of rubble, realizing too late that it provide poor cover and an uncomfortable seat.
    [Lucca: Athletics 2, Roll 1--vs.--Shoot 3, Roll 2: Net -2, No Advantage gained]

    Reynold's plasma bolts hit the car, unfortunately dealing only light damage to the hull.
    [Reynolds: Marksmanship 3, Roll 0--vs.--Athletics 2, Roll 0: Net +1, Apex Vehicle take 1 Phys. Stress]

    Footsteps pounding like an earthquake, Bigs charges forward, brushing off minor shots to his thick plating and clenching the attack vehicle's turret in his vice-like grip. The passengers inside begin screeching angrily, punching the gas in a vain--yet substantial--attempt to break free.
    [Bigs: Physique 4, Roll 0--vs.--Physique 0, Roll -2: Net +6, Immobilize Advantage gained (the Apex Vehicle cannot perform any action this round)]

    The Novakids begin firing at the escort, but, despite Ox's loud cursing, aren't able to make any hits; in fact, their very presence almost seems to invigorate the Apex, who turn the vigor onto Bigs.
    [Novakids: Shoot 2, Roll -1--vs.--Athletics 2, Roll 2: Net -5, Apex Escort gains Vigor Advantage (The escort gets a +2 on their next move)]

    :::Enemies::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

    The Apex Escort continues firing at Bigs, and their continuous stream of bullets begins to get through Bigs' defenses.
    [Apex Escort: Shoot 3, Bonus +2, Roll 4--vs.--Physique 4, Roll -2: Net +7, Bigs takes 3 and 4 Stress (filling the 3 and 4 boxes)]

    From her prone position, Lucca will attempt to relieve some pressure off of Bigs, opening fire with her shotgun at the nearest Apex escort.

    -bigs

    Once a new bolt materializes, 3 takes aim on the soldiers who are attempting to take cover and fires the bolt, then ducks back behind the cover. He is impressed(Although not visibly) by Bigs' impressive combat performance.

    Tetra continues to hide.

    Reynolds switches priorities. He lines up a second shot, this time at one of the Apex escorts, and fires again.
     
  12. Vurrunna

    Vurrunna Giant Laser Beams

    Lucca fires off her shotgun, the distance unfortunately playing poorly with her weapon; a burst of debris kicks up a safe distance away from an escort as the gun's aim goes too wide.
    [Lucca: Marksmanship +2, Roll 0--vs.--Athletics +2, Roll +1: Net -1]

    Bigs begins tearing the turret off of the vehicle, metal breaking free with a terrible screech. The vehicle thumps onto the ground and immediately bursts into motion...
    [Bigs: Demolition +2, Roll 0--vs.--Athletics 0, Roll -1: Net +1, Broken Turret gained (it takes one action to tear it off, another to throw it)]

    Phoenix-3 fires a bolt at the escort, skillfully taking down one of the Apex; the others begin shouting angrily--or maybe even fearfully--and shift their attention to the firers.
    [Phoenix-3: Shoot +4, Roll +3--vs.--Athletics +2, Bonus +1 (gained from light cover), Roll -1: Net +5, Apex Escort takes Moderate Consequence (Man Down), and 2 Stress (Stress Box 1 already full)]

    Tetra stays right where she is, hearing a lot of gunfire on the other side of her wall; however, she also hears something. Nearby, hidden by the debris of a crashed building, Tetra can see an Apex begin settling in with a rifle in hand. He does not, by any means, seem friendly, and no one else has noticed him yet.

    Reynolds lines up his shot and fires, striking one of the escort guards. He falls to the ground behind light cover and begins crying out in pain.
    [Reynolds: Marksmanship +3, Roll +1--vs.--Athletics +2, Bonus +1, Roll -2: Net +3, Apex Escort takes Mild Consequence (Wounded Member)]

    :::Enemies::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

    Angry at losing the turret, the Assualt Vehicle attempts to ram Bigs; in doing so, it backs up into a building, with light debris falling all over it and restricting its movement for the moment.
    [Assault Vehicle: Drive +3, Setback -1 (unorthodox, damaged, what-have-you), Roll -1--vs.--Physique +4, Roll -1: Net -2

    The Apex Escort opens fire at Phoenix-3, seeing his deadly accuracy as a serious threat. Their hail of fire puts pressure on 3, pocking holes into his wall and sprinkling bits of wood onto his shoulders.
    [Apex Escort: Shoot +3, Roll 0--vs.--Athletics +2, Bonus +1 (light cover), Roll -1: Net +1, Phoenix-3 fills First Stress Box]

    The Apex Sniper settles down, pointing his rifle towards his desired target: Red Starr.
    [Apex Sniper: Shoot +4, Roll -2: Net +2, Aim Advantage Gained (+2 on next shot at Red, if uninterrupted hint-hint)]

    Bigs throws the turret at the escort, heaving it over his head

    -Tetra-
    Tetra sees the sniper settling in "Oh man" She whispers to herself. She points her six-shooter slowly attempting to aim, and fires off three shots. She was sure that even if she missed, someone would notice the noise.
     
  15. TΔktik

    TΔktik Phantasmal Quasar

    3 is very aware that his current position is quickly becoming undesirable- He attempts to take shelter behind one of the destroyed vehicles.
     
  16. Roland Weiss

    Roland Weiss Tiy's Beard

    Cursing the inaccuracy of her chosen weapon, Lucca drops her shotgun, drawing the semi-automatic pistol she carries as a backup. Taking a moment to aim, she will fire again.
     
  17. Tatterdemalion

    Tatterdemalion Phantasmal Quasar

    "3! Get out of there!" Reynolds yells. "I'll cover you!" He emerges from cover and fires off several bursts from his carbine at the escort to draw the fire away from 3.

    Bigs heaves the turret over his head, lobbing it at one of the Apex and smashing him down; the rest of the squad is obviously demoralized by this.
    [Bigs: Demolition +2, Bonus+2 (Wounded and Man Down), Roll -1--vs.--Athletics +2, Roll 0: Net +1, Stress Boxes full, Apex Escort takes Severe Consequence (Droppin' Like Flies!)]

    Tetra fires three shots at the Sniper, missing with all of them and not disrupting the Apex in any way; hopefully someone will hear and deal with him soon...
    [Tetra: Shoot +2, Roll +3--vs.--Stealth +3, Bonus +1 (light cover, distance, what-have-you), Roll +2: Net -1]

    Reynolds opens fire on the escort, managing to take out one or two; all of the remaining Apex duck behind cover...
    [Reynolds: Marksmanship +3, Roll +2--vs.--Will +2, Roll-1: Net +4, Covering Fire Advantage gained (any roll in which the Apex Escort use Shoot now has a +2 for the PC involved]

    Allowing Phoenix-3 to dash for the thick slag pile that is the remains of some sort of tank.
    [Phoenix-3: Athletics +2, Bonus +2 Roll +2--vs.--Shoot +3, Roll +1: Net +2, Cover Advantage gained]

    Lucca fires her pistol, dropping most of the surviving guards. Those left alive make a mad-dash in the opposite direction, making easy targets for any that would wish to take them down...
    [Lucca: Marksmanship +2, Bonus +3 (Wounded, Man Down, and Droppin' like Flies!), Roll +1--vs.--Athletics +2, Roll -3: Net +6, Apex Escort is defeated]

    As the Novakids most certainly do, releasing a vicious barrage into the backs of the remaining troops.
    [Narrative]

    :::Enemies::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

    Seeing the situation going downhill fast, the Assault Vehicle decides to cut its losses and begins driving towards the exit at top speed, dust billowing from beneath the tires.
    [Assault Vehicle is exiting scene, and is assumed to escape.]

    As the dust begins to settle in the wake of the buggy, a loud *crack!* resonates throughout town. Ox and Ethyl begin screaming in anger and horror (respectively) as Red slumps over to the ground.
    [Apex Sniper: Shoot +4, Bonus +2, Roll +2--vs.--Athletics +1, Roll +3: Net +4, Red is downed (severity yet to be seen)]

    ::: End Combat:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

    Ox dashes for the crashed walls where the shot came from, screeching loudly and angrily about "dismemberin' th'blasted varmint that'd dare pop a shot at Red Starr." Ethyl remains behind, speaking in a quick and worried squeak while trying to manage the injury of a groaning Red. Nitradiel and Blue stand nearby, baffled expressions on their faces.

    EDIT: After firing, the sniper seemingly disappears from Tetra's viewpoint, with too much debris and broken construction standing in the way.

    Reynolds rushes towards Red, hastily drawing medical supplies from his bag as he does. "He's venting heavy plasma. Let me look, I'm a medic." Reynolds doesn't wait for an answer. When there's lives at stake, there's only one priority to have.
    [Reynolds attempts to heal Red]
