WormFrame: The Third Dream (Worm/Warframe Crossover)

[X]Let it do what it wants - It's tinkertech, there's a 50/50 chance that it will be able to take it.

[X]Half of them provide suppressing fire while the rest of you move to cover that won't explode, then do the same for the crew still behind the truck.

Yes, crossbows do in fact need to have their string pulled back before putting the next bolt in. Even if many have built-in levers to assist with that. Admittedly, I've never used any of the crossbows in Warframe myself, and have no idea what the animations look like. In hindsight, I should've figured TennoTech crossbows probably have SpaceMagic powered mechanics that pull the string back and insert a new bolt without any user intervention (which essentially makes them pointlessly complicated pistols/rifles).

Let the Tenno do what Tenno do so very well: carve a bloody path through their enemies.

    • You shout out orders to your men. "Jensen, Marshall, Iroh, get behind that Nissan over there! Malcolm and I will provide covering fire." You turn to the automaton, still waiting for your input. You give it a nod - permission to engage. It nods back in response, crouches, and leaps over the fallen vehicle in one bound. Immediately you hear shouts from your assailants as they switch targets. You risk taking a peek over the edge to see the robot has already ambushed the first group of shooters, landing at their perch in the nearby apartment building 3 floors up. It quickly disarms and disables all three soldiers there. It picks up one of their laser rifles, aims down the scopes, and throws three shots in the direction of the group in the next building over, not caring about the result for the moment.

    A sudden pop from the engine snaps you out of your daze of watching the mechanical warrior fight and you command the men taking cover on the Nissan to provide covering fire for you as Malcolm crosses the gap and hunkers down behind a concrete pillar. You follow your second in command but as you look to your right you see that one of the soldiers is already taking aim at you. There's nowhere for you to hide in the 50 meters it will take for you to reach your own pillar. You think it's all over for you when the tinker's robot pulls a glowing ethereal censer from an unknown point in space and waves it in the direction of your would be assailant. Before he can get a shot off, purple glowing chains from another dimension erupt from the ground and wrap themselves violently around his arms and legs, arresting his movement. He looked for all the world like he was frozen in time, and knowing tinkertech he might have actually been. What's more, the android was invigorated by the power he had just used, his shields seemingly bolstered by the chains. You look up at the group of soldiers Harrow had shot at before, to see that…

    (Roll a D100 as an Accuracy test for Harrow please, as described by the rules in the OP)

    • Welp, here goes nothing.

    Edit:......No way. No f@(&ing way the down roll is that good.
    Flameal15k threw 1 100-faced dice. Reason: Accuracy (presumably abysmal) Total: 86

    • (65 - 86 = -21, Two Degrees of Failure. The men are nearly unscathed)

    ...One of the soldiers pulling out a rocket launcher from their perch, unharmed by their position being barraged blindly. The explosive payload is launched at the warframe before you can even give a warning. It hits the middle of the road where he was standing, also causing the van you were ambushed in to explode. When the smoke clears, the remaining soldiers have made their getaway, though they left behind the more grievously injured. The automaton that saved your life now lies heavily damaged in the middle of the street, having been near the epicenter of the rocket's explosions. His arm was blasted clean off and now lied mangled nearby. His right leg was turned the wrong way and half of his faceplate was blasted off, revealing the twitching synthetic architecture underneath. The PRT was now arriving in force, just in time to clean up this mess. You slump to a sitting position nearby, as you notice the creator of the machine that just saved you and your squad's lives, perhaps at the expense of its - his - own. She calls for you to help her pick up the robot. Duty calls again, it seems.

    "Sergeant, do you mind telling me exactly how a routine courier job ended up turning into this nightmare?" You sit across from the head of the East-Northeast Protectorate, Armsmaster. He's still in his power armor - you have no idea how that chair supports his weight, but it probably involves tinkertech and bullshit - but his helmet is off and his stare is burrowing into your forehead. At any other point you might have been terrified, but right now you were just tired.
    How do you answer?

    []"Sir, I don't think that's very fair to assign the blame to me. I was following a pre-set route to a directed location, and we had no intel about a possible enemy attack."
    []"I accept that the situation went haywire under my control, but we should be less worried about pointing fingers and more worried about - if you'll excuse my language - who had the balls to take on a PRT van and get away with it."
    []"With all do respect, I don't answer to the Protectorate: I'm a PRT employee. I'm going to submit a report of the incident to my Warrant Officer, and you can get that report through the proper channels."

    In canon vans carrying confiscated tinker tech have been ambushed by coils men before and the the criminal transports have gotten attacked by various gangs to bust out their capes. This seems like a good chance to point out the fact that there is a good chance that classified information is getting out of the building.

    Maybe this will get someone decent higher up to look into possible leaks to plug

    Someone really needs to give Coil the boot, but first, we need to address the fact that he has moles in the PRT.
     
    At this point, I'd say we're too tired to have a verbal blame-battle with an egotistical prick like Armsmaster.

    [X]"With all due* respect, I don't answer to the Protectorate: I'm a PRT employee. I'm going to submit a report of the incident to my Warrant Officer, and you can get that report through the proper channels."
     
    @Cryptix: Will there be a vote down the line for what kind of weapons Taylor will use besides the Scourge?

    If so, a suggestion:

    [X] Zaw. Cause why not?

    For combination of parts....dice roll?

    Armsmaster may decide that his time is better spent doing other things later, since the 'frame is at the PRT now/will be when Taylor goes, but if we don't tell anyone about the repeated raids
