Tales of the RDF - OOC

Yep. The attackers are starting to scatter. The only question in my mind is, do you let them run, or try and shoot them down before they can escape?
 
I was going to use Taniya's next available action to line up a shot with the Tomahawk's six-pack of mini-missiles and let Barbara Tolson make the shot to get her first kill. Taniya really wants to know if Barbara can do it or not (and apparently, it would help Barbara too).
 
Yes! That was exactly the target Taniya was going for - the Male Power Armor! =) If Tolson can make the shot, it would be great for her to be able to maybe brag about her first kill. =)
 
I'm just holding to see if Zaile is going to fire both shots at one pod or save a particle cannon attack for later.
 
Sadly, she rolled low and missed. But, it is now @Dannigan's turn, and since Barbara hasn't used up her attacks, Taniya can shoot one weapon while Barbara shoots (maybe) at the MPA
 
I'm not certain how you might want to work this, Sherwood. I am trying to have Taniya do everything short of pulling the trigger for Tolson. The question being, does Tolson have the courage to do it? What die rolls (if any) do you need from me?
 
I made a roll for Tolson, and she has managed to make her first kill. Now, it's @Beowulf up to bat.
 
This is a good little role-playing scene with Tolson and Taniya here! I'm eager to see how this scene plays out (though I hope Zaile dissuades Taniya from booting Tolson). =)
 
Indeed. We are now moving out of combat time, so post as you see fit. @TechnoParadox, you are now in the game at Anton-17.
 
Hey Sherwood, can The Kids skill improve on anything? I don't recall any modifying rules, but I do remember you and I had some ideas on how to make it work way back when.
 
Technically, the military would frown upon you tinkering with the gear, making anything different. But that doesn't mean that you couldn't do some work under the table, so to speak.
 
Well my Idea was to introduce "MDC Slap Patches". Picture a MDC Duct tape patch that is 1x1 foot, or 2x2 foot ect, that is like a band aid for a mecha? Almost anyone can use it because it's so simple to use. "Mecha Band-Aids" (^.^)
 
For a quick field repair? Not a problem. I was picturing you doing stuff like, overpowering the engines of a mecha to get a extra outburst of power for a touch of added speed, or +5 MDC to the damage of a PBC. Those will take some rolling once you get to Anton-17.

@Dannigan You portray the inhuman Zentraedi perspective perfectly. Much pleasure in reading these posts, I'm having. :)
That is a high compliment, Epiphany, and I thank you dearly for it! =)


Killfire, sir. In the first Robotech RPG book by Palladium, there is a bit about Max Sterling customizing his own VF-1J Veritech (adding a +1 t parry, dodge, and roll). However, it also states that he is allowed to do this because he is an RDF ace. Maybe (much) farther down the line you'll be able to make such special modifications then?


As it stands, I was wondering how the skill Field Armorer would work in repairing M.D.C. damage in the field...
