Robotech - Southern Cross Adventure

[Psychie]

With the jump, Deunan is able to evade the Regults' fire, using one of your attack actions.

Alan shoots and scores a solid hit on the three Battle Pods, and they explode in extreme prejudice.

Battle Pods 4-6 fire their cannons at Alan. Two miss, but the third is a Critical Strike.

Neo decides to hit the heavy infantry that's damaged, and with her Canister shell, she wipes them out.

Male Power Armor 1-4 target Alissa with their heavy guns.

Rykon has a defense to declare, and WlfSamurai is up, and has to dodge three of the four attacks.

[Rykon]

Alan whips the throttles of his boosters into gear in an attempt to dodge by forcing Freckles to lean heavily to one side, then re-stabilizing with the other. If his maneuver worked, the Tank would look like it had attempted to raise one side and stomp downward. "Gonna have to be careful with this one. I only have so many brain cells left to rattle." He chuckled with a grin behind his helmet. "Let's keep it up Freckles."

[I might as well have headbutted the shot with a roll like that. Sheesh. So, I guess I defend with my face.]

Alissa fires her jump jets to leap to the side in battloid as a dodge. As she rolls over, she flips her veritech into tank mode, aims, and fires back at the the Male Power Armor.

Dodging and firing APFSDS round back...

Alan's dodge effort is unsuccessful, and you get tagged in the Main Body for 120 MDC.

On the other hand, Alissa is able to evade the attacks against her, and your counterattack hits MPA 1 for solid damage.

The three remaining Heavy Infantry aim their auto rifles at Marlon. They will all hit, and one is a Critical.

Marlon jammed on the thrusters, jumping his tank a good 20 feet off the ground, hoping to try and avoid their incoming fire.

But he was also planning to take advantage of this angle. Firing another MPAT down onto the remaining pair of infantry.

 

[Psychie]

Of the three attacks, two manage to hit despite the dodge effort. You take a total of 90 MDC to your Main Body.

Your second MPAT round flies straight and true, and you score a solid hit on the three remaining Heavy Infantry.

Deunan turns her tank to face the damaged MPA 1, and fires off a Sabot round to try and kill it off before it can do any more damage to them. After the shell is on its way, she flips her mecha into Battloid mode to be able to use her shields.

Deunan's APFSDS round punches a hole through the chest armor of the MPA and keeps on going, killing the pilot instantly.

D. Rex and Sherwood Don't forget that your main gun has only two shots a round, and you've used them both.

Alan is shaken from impact as a result of the hit on his Spartas. "Oh? You want some too, huh!?" He shouts, getting the cannon in place and firing another MPAT round at the second group of battle pods. "Let's see how that tastes!"

[Psychie]

With another hard hit, the three Regult Pods are hammered by the explosion of the MPAT round. They scatter, putting some distance between them so another shot like that won't be able to hit them all.

Seeing the damage done to Alan's tank, the three Pods return fire on him.

Neo aims another Canister round at the three Heavy Infantry, but doesn't do enough damage to finish them off. She then shifts her tank into Battloid mode to be able to use her shields to defend herself.

The three Male Powered Armor suits turn their attention to Deunan, and they all fire at her with their cannons.

WlfSamurai is up, and Rykon and Sherwood have defense rolls to make.

[Rykon]

Alan would attempt to defend by slamming the throttle in reverse and cutting to one side before shifting into Battloid mode to defend against a prolonged assault against the angered pod pilots. Hopefully, he will have slid far away enough to avoid the brunt of the incoming fire.

[Rolling dodge cause I didn't declare battloid mode earlier.]

Since the Battle Pods had split up, Alissa is only able to hit one of them with her MPAT shell. It does the trick, however, and takes another Zentraedi out of the fight.

The three Heavy Infantrymen also split up, and this time, they target Deunan.

With Freckles in battloid mode, Alan has his mech level its EU-11 Gun Pod toward the Zentraedi Battle Pod [6]. "Think you can run, huh!? Think you can attack us without getting a little blood on you!? See how you like THIS!" Alan shouted with fury over the fury of five laser-targeted rounds screaming toward its mark.

[I'm pretty sure that's an auto failure, but I'll roll damage just in case. Damn shame for that miss too. Maybe next time.]

Alan fires, but the shot goes wide.

Battle Pods 5 and 6 target Neo, but she manages to kick in her jump jets and dodge out of the way. She then flips her mecha into Battloid mode and fires a burst at the last of the Heavy Infantry, puncturing the last layer of armor and killing the man.

MPA 2-4 target Alissa with their heavy guns.
