Rolling Awareness and Initiative.

TN for Awareness should be 15.

Initiative is 8 + 3 from AGL + 1 from Wary, for 12 total. It'd have another +2 if @HMS Sophia had let me bring my Storm Bolter to the cocktail party!!:anger:

Okay, I still have no idea what I'm rolling for awareness, which I think should be 17?
And I don't think I have any init bonuses beyond AGL

Yeah, that are not a good. Init of 4, and I failed the awareness roll

Awareness:
Everyone is surprised except @jacobplm

Initiative:
@DarthThrawn : 13
@Ironanvil1 : 12
@jacobplm : 11
Party guests: 9
Bad guys : 6 with a surprise round
@samdamandias : 4
@pspan : unrolled

So here's how combat is going to work. I'll write the surprise round now, so don't worry too much about that. But then don't worry about posting in initiative order. Post as you can and then I will sort your actions into initiative order for my response.
Gottit?

How dead is Holt then, having been hit multiple times and not being quite as mechanical as Scratch?

Check the Info spoiler in the IC post.

You got hit twice, once for 8 damage and once for 11. I presume you're wearing your armor, so we can deduct that (5) and your TB (4) from the incoming damage, leaving you to take 0 and 2 wounds, each.

Unless the attacks have a Pen value that isn't listed there (@HMS Sophia), or one of the shots hit you in your fleshy, unarmored head.
 
Rolling BS to attack for both me and my servo skull. First roll is mine, second is servoskulls.

@HMS Sophia would it still be one Half Attack for Holt to draw both pistol and cutlass? Also, would he get the Unaware bonus for his opening shot at the attackers, since they don't seem to be expecting the general crowd to return fire at them? I think I'd asked you on Discord if his Hive Worlder "Accustomed to Crowds" Talent would negate the -10 penalty for shooting in the crowd?
 
Yes, No Yes, in answer to your questions (drawing both is a half action if you have quick draw, No the enemy is not unaware that some of the crowd are likely packing they're just not that fussed and, yes, hive worlders get to ignore the crowd issue)
 
Okay, half action to pull out his revolver, free action to duck downbehind cover and half action to Command the surrounding crowd.

@HMS Sophia any chance of a situational bonus on the Command roll, since Holt is basically ordering them to preserve their own lives by taking cover and returning fire from there to keep the attackers heads down, going with natural instincts rather than trying to override them to try to get them to charge or suchlike?
 
You can have a situational +20 bonus to then taking cover and /some/ will return fire, but getting them all to return fire gets no bonus.
 
That's fine - them being alive and delaying the attacker's advance is the important bit.

So that would be base 45Fel, +10 from @DarthThrawn, +20 bonus, for TN 75.

Edit: one degree of success on seven people, I believe?

I'm going to assume I get the lasgun from the dead guy. BS is 60, +10 from using las, and maybe -10 from the crowd, here goes a snap-fire:

DIE BASTARDS! Though I don't have anything that triggers on DoS, and I think my initiative goes up by two since I now have a las weapon.

@HMS Sophia, running the numbers, if you treat Holt as unarmoured, he's currently 5 points into critical damage, so most probably out of the fight for the time being. Giving him his Carapace under his greatcoat, he's comfortably got 9 Wounds remaining, and if you just treat the greatcoat/uniform combo itself as a Flak Coat equivalent, he's got 5 Wounds left.
 
I would argue in favour of either the lattermost, or the carapace, pushing towards the Flak Coat.
 
More killing enemies for the Captain and the Emperor. BS 60+10 for using Las +10 for Short Range +10 semi-auto burst, target is 90 or less

Imma spend a Fate Point to reroll that.

All three hit. D10+5 for damage, because I have that bonus. 15, 15, and 7.

So, as I understand it, of the original 20 attackers, there are 11 remaining:

Pincering Holt, Scratch and 3 remaining defenders
  • 2 at the top near the doors
  • 3 at the top-left from the windows
Pincering Averill, McTarnaghan, the Governor and 4 defenders
  • 2 at the bottom left
  • 4 at the bottom right
And Katyana just came in behind the top 2 at the door, gaining Surprise on them.

If @pspan uses the Surprise to shoot down one of the top 2, Holt can charge and try and take out the other. That would put us in possession of four looted longarms for 6 defenders, and able to start rolling up the left side of the room moving downwards, while Averill & Co try and hold out.
 
Once again, target is 90 or less for the shootings of the lasers.

That is two hits and a miss, damage is d10+5, for 9 and 13, respectively.
