Tidefall E5 (1/3)

from Des Moines and Dragons · host Paul Privitera

Our adventurers started in a tense situation and someone important in the Brass Guild heard things they shouldn't have. But again, thanks to some quick thinking from Flip aka Paige the Page, they avoided another bar fight. The crew goes to the docks to find out where The Tortoise is, or how to get there. The heroes pretend to be a loving family to get info from the harbormaster. After finding the ship that can take them to The Tortoise, they ran into the Brass Guild again, manning their vessel. Salt decides to take them to the bar so that Hera and Flip can "work" on the ship. While Salt gets drunk with Pirates, Hera and Flip capture a one of them and plan an ambush. Flip left to get Salt but noticed pirates heading to the ship. He ignored them to get our Drunk boy back. Hera plans an ambush and holds off the guild members for as long as she can. Eventually Flip drags Salt back to the ship to join the fight. Things seemed to be going well, but they were unable to finish off Pirate Joe before alarms started going off. Guards incoming. What will happen next? Find out, now.

Yeah, this is union. Yeah, I get points for this. Yeah, you get 25 type of points. Yes Awesome, but Papa Jeff what about my type of points?

You get a flip it's two Yeah, I get the other 23. Oh, yeah, flop gets the rest and then he buried them somewhere. You don't know where they're at That's beautiful. Yeah, I know all right.

No big goods for flop. Well, I still got plenty of cash, so Sweet. Yeah, we're back. It's been a month for the listeners, but trust it's been almost two.

It's been a long time So what are people up to? So Jeff is looking at me, so I will kick it off. Oh, yeah, it's been two months It's been it's been nuts a lot of really crazy stuff. It works been winding down, so that's been great Still haven't picked up death-stranding Unfortunately, but I did go hard into Witcher 3 and the Witcher books and the Witcher show All it wasn't intentional.

It just sort of happened like I got interested in the Witcher and then I was just like look at all of this stuff That I can just consume. I know so many people that have done that now the show Reindigord of that franchise I feel like like it was just oh yeah, the show's coming out I the game is like 799 on Steam. I'll pick that up I've been wanting to read the books for a while So it kind of just like kicked me into gear and I just went ham on it nice I like did the same thing where I was texting my sister who has only read the books and then was watching the show And I've only ever played the game and was watching the show and then we were like texting each other about like oh the difference is and we're like This is a mess of a show in some places But like it is so good in other places and it's just like oh yeah No, I fully so I haven't started my playthrough yet of Witcher 3. I'm about to start that because I've never beaten the DLC Which I hear is actually definitely worth doing so.

I'm about to start that I did finish my run through of disco Lizzium nice. I also played that oh my god. Yeah, so that was that was the big thing But yeah, no the Witcher was great. That was a definitely like holiday thing to type you Holiday binge it was a lot of it was a good good time Not me No, I was I was just basic Disney Plus bitch watching the Mandalorian before the turn of the turn of the new year But it's just been your industry for me for rehearsals and stuff and when's that launch launch?

I'm such a nerd I just everything's a launcher. Yeah, absolutely. I wish but that show opens up March 6th and runs that weekend in the weekend after Okay, so this episode will come out early February. So if you're listening to this now check it out early March Mm-hmm.

I see that in the beginning of every intro seems like you're very Assistant what's been like? That's fine. It's it's tolerable. I know it's what's been interesting is a lot of these Small-town community theater types they read the show like I don't know Chris we can't do this another even like this is so beautiful Mike told you it's yeah, I there's a comic called Laura Olympus Which I am the last person on the internet to hear of but I binge that also and it's got the persophany the hair Hades underworld thing It's just there's a theme there and I'm like oh man This reminds me of you're gonna see speaking of things I want to steal costumes from like being like the witcher and this comic and just yeah everything so Cost him looking very cool on my end.

It's just oh hey Jeff What have you been up to I just did it video games after holidays? I was in California with my parents for Christmas, which was it was fun But we're seeing all the people putting on heavy heavy rain jackets when it's like 35 or 40 degrees and they're shivering I just they're their lives are hard But otherwise it was it was a lot of fun and then lots of video I played a lot of short video games have been on my list for a while so I played the latest call of duty the campaign Next up, I'm thinking is outer worlds, but I'm just playing a bunch of hopefully smaller games are not gonna That's on my list too. I've referred really good things. It's either that or life is strange to you You've got a weird view on what a shorter game is well if you're looking at the outer world Okay, it's it's like a 20 to 25 hour game, which for me is short.

Well, you know, I played oblivion was like 600 hours, so Yeah, okay, I'm weirdo. I guess yeah, so if you're looking at average 60 hours is probably like average Maybe it's just like it's like my dad sensibility is like 60 hours like Jesus Christ that game better like My rants are so well, I mean according to steam so like I just finished my first like straight through run through of Disgo easy and that was 29 hours And if I'm looking at something like a sieve six which is like 300 hours Yeah, or like a Skyrim which I've separated into like multiple games like because you've got this special edition and Yep, that's just an unbelievable amount of time so uh continuing with our What am I saying? Yeah, I don't know words Oh to continue building up the world of this universe We're gonna talk about some interesting stuff that is going on in the world sort of outside of where we're currently at So I'm gonna start and talk a bit more about the some people call them the cultist They're the the followers of you know the people who believe in the world We've seen them tertiary to the story, but they are definitely an important aspect of this world So the follower the you know the followers me and they have a lot of names But to a lot of people they're just the cultist but they believe that they are the true, you know children of the world They're the you know the citizens of you know yan tis they are they are the people of the world of the world is mostly gone Their ultimate goal is to somehow save the world to go back to the planet to re-explore to find out what happened with the floods They have this great long-term goal and they're really pushing towards that the problem is the reason why they're called cultists is they are They'll kind of do anything to do it. They've done weird experiments They will send people out into the world and then people don't come back and then it just becomes a such a thing So it's this weird collection of people where they want to learn about the world They are anything they're the scientists of this universe where they want to find out But because of it, you know when they're scientists there's always evil scientists So that is kind of this weird side effect that at some point I definitely want to see and have us explore what they are and what they're doing But you know I just wanted sort of lay that out there So I said you have anything cool mentioning either about your character or the world or yeah, kind of continuing off of What I what we talked about last time about kind of like the physiology of Revenance it'd be kind of cool to talk a little bit about maybe the sociology of Revenance and where they are how they sort of fit into society Because like something I was thinking about he may have been an underground doctor But Bill Bobby was a doctor that specialized in Revenance.

Yep. So there's So there's gotta be there's gotta be more of these Revenance kind of walking around even if they are kind of cloken dagger up and eat the like hiding in the shadows of Society so that's something I've been thinking a lot about so I thought it'd be cool if there was like maybe Like an underground Maybe pseudo-militaristic group of Revenance like fighting for Revenance rights and a place in society and a place in this world I haven't really gotten so far as to like give them a name. That's more your job, but But I just thinking a lot about like Revenant philosophers like what how how alive are are we as Revenance and Do we have souls or is there a place we go when we die or there are some that believe that like no like we're not really living But that doesn't mean we're not going to fight to survive if that makes any sense So I've just been thinking a lot about Revenance and society nice kind of shifts the whole dynamic on like medicine philosophy It's that are in general for you know everybody if suddenly like oh, there's dead people now But maybe they're not so dead. Yeah, yeah cool stuff to think about I'm gonna talk about the weather because that's what you talk about me this winter So what is on time right when you totally know what you're doing But so I think if you're like a society that puts everything that you hold dear on a ship in the sky you kind of start to think about and have a better understanding of like what you know the weather patterns are and how to To negotiate those and navigate those so I would say ships being really negatively impacted by the weather is relatively rare But I think there's one incident in particular that I think people really think about as far as like a tragedy or an accident where It's kind of like Chernobyl and that there's a history of you know There's a whole thing where people made mistakes and looking back you can kind of be construct those mistakes But I'd say about ten years ago.

There was a horrible accident where a big Ship with you know thousands of people they were going into a storm and you know there was just a series of accidents in a series of mistakes that people made or you know carelessness on people in charges part and the ship actually crashed and it fell down and A lot of people died and there were no survivors so that That's kind of something that it's like the boogie the boogie man story of like this is what happens and so what was the weather event that caused that? It was it was just a storm. It was just like a regular. It was a particularly large storm I guess like weather event where there was like heating and cooling and weather stuff like hurricane sure yeah Yeah, well, I mean I don't know if you're you know, it's above above you know normal weather Yeah, whether it's different up in the sky.

I'm a science person Yeah, just the atmosphere move up like because the water is so hard possibly That's okay next you're talking about science. Oh, so the event is called the blue tide incident. That is correct That is what it is called and everybody You know, it's kind of one of those things where it's you know It's a political thing where it's like everybody blames everybody else for it or like you know There's there's something that you can take like, you know the cultists are thinking one thing and you know that political Centress or like oh we need to manage this in this way, so it's but yeah, it's one of those things that's kind of stuck out in the recent history of Okay, so something that I always look at is almost the administrative side of the world, okay? So looking at the the government I guess is to me it almost it's almost like the Roman Empire almost like it's so huge It doesn't run if efficiently enough.

It's so huge. It also was built off the basics of the military. Yes, so Just pulling from salt experience is the freelance explorer board in the early days They were verified contracts that had the seal of the government etc etc But as time went on the boards released contracts are posted other Organizations started posting it and as an explorer hard up for money and getting sick and tired of getting stuck On these vessels or not wanting to go into the brass guild or you know whatever other option was out there You kind of had a don't ask don't tell sort of approach to each contract So because what made me think of this is the you know the cultists they could slide a job in there because they're really interested I'm what's going down below but the government if they have control up above why would they care? So why are we sending?

You know jobs out to try to find what's below to go from this controlled environment down to something main maybe not be so controlled Yeah, and I think definitely if the government doesn't want people going down there is that we're going on is there In secret, you know, do they know something etc etc. So yeah, there's a lot of cool storylines to follow there to figure out what's What's the various theories? Oh, yeah, oh my god. Can we do a conspiracy theory podcast for tidefall?

Just the subliminal episode of three hours was talking about the yes. Oh, yeah, welcome to tidefall radio one day the government caused the event To the blue tide Alright cool, so we will be right back then we will get into episode or part one of episode five The page wait what page the page is this name? This mother's name is worth the book, right? No Sir sad Anyway, they avoided another bar fight bar insurance here must be free to lose the crew goes to the docks to find out where the tortoise is or How to get there here is a fan to be a love of family to get info from the harder master after finding the ship They can take them to the tortoise they ran into the grass go again And their vessel salt decides to take them to the bar so the hair and foot can work on the ship While salt gets drunk with pirates their head flip capture one of them and plan ambush Flip left to get salt the nose pirates headed to the ship ignored them to get out drunk the way back Hair plays an ambosius holding off the guild members for such an eventually flip drag salt after the ship to join the fight Big scene to be well.

They were unable to finish a pirate Joe before the large start going off Gox incoming damn well what happens next find out now? Okay, so we are here. It's happening in the middle of this fight You've heard alarms are going off in the distance and right now we have flop and Hera is on the ship and everyone else is dead except for flip And salt and this lowly guard that sort of started everything by talking to her. It's Joe our boy Joe So the first real question is there's guards coming at any point of the session you guys can give me all the three points I just leave you could dip out you get the fuck out of dodge basically Do you guys want to do that if you do that naturally you you won't get to bring Joe with you?

You can get out you don't need to make roll you just narrate what happens, but I know that bringing Joe with you is kind of important So what do you just want to do? I'm gonna get vetoed if I say we use the story points because I want to abandon Joe to his fate But I'm feeling I'm feeling like Joe is gonna. I'd say we got one vote Joe's got a foe on the tortoise All right, we're gonna fly it as a reminder There is still another guy that I believe Hera and flip tied up that is on the ship unless unless the dog not is Throw it out to get like out of the cabin where he was No, which is possible like a chance to see fly by the killing We'll find out what we'll figure that out. Yeah, well, yes You guys have a guard that is potentially live probably cuz flip her flaps not that violent of a dog Just stepped on him.

Yeah, I think yeah for him to just kill a guy that's tied up That'd be if I were to do that to you that would be a mean jam thing to do and I'm normally charge myself as a nice guy So I'm not gonna just corrupt your puppy Yeah, so he's on board if you want to leave him you could for free It sounds like we have at least one of the other two the other one doesn't have a name Joe's a name Let's keep our story points and see if we can wiggle our way out of this because I'm close and you're already wrestling with them I don't yeah, I tried to get him on to the dog. Yeah, flaps with me. No flaps on the I thought flaps was Oh, we did he jump off to you? Cuz he's cuz we're trying to put Joe on to flop.

Yeah, I remember now I I forgot that happened at the end so by the way ladies and gentlemen we totally listen to our own Joe It was two months ago. Yeah, yeah, I was a well joke. I took great notes I just didn't take a picture of them the map. I mean it's not really like map.

It's very light map. It's true. All right, so yep I think we're fine. We'll keep Joe.

We're in agreement. We'll keep our story points. Let's go Let's let's get Joe up on this and see if we can avoid not murdering anyone else. Yeah, add to the body count Which I'm not even sure what it is, but it's not great.

It's not great to to hear yeah in this fight I mean, yeah, you just kill people. It happens. It happens so we rolled initiative last time and I'm grabbing that real quick But I am gonna have actually can I have you roll me initiative for the guards while I grab these papers? It is going to be See guard they are ready for this so they can be really good ones.

It's gonna be one yellow and one green Okay, yeah, the start of our pretty family friendly actually Four of them so yeah roll that nice little trip and then they're drunk to a they're not drunk roll at two times It's gonna be two sets. There's two guard. There's four guards, but there's two sets of them So you roll that twice or I like how they're not drunk because they're responsible so success with an advantage for one That's one point one Oh shit good job. Okay, so what are you doing?

I don't know It's all like I have any fun this round. Okay, so that is effectively a three because that's gonna count the crit is what he rolled a success And which is for initiative to the other one he got a one point one and then going back to my notes from last time We've got your guys's end you had a three or sorry one three two one and then one one So one of the guards gonna go first it's gonna go guard and then player player guard player Bob Okay, Bob's gonna last so the first thing's gonna happen is two of these guards run up and they moved to there and So there's these alarms going off and they're not quite they don't know what's going to do that There's a firefight happening so these guards just to sort of give you an idea So they are they are part of the government like they are the guards for you know the main government body of this universe They come up and they they are equipped in sort of Navy looking gear But what they have on them is they have this big old shield then they've got this it looks like a spear but as you look down the spears actually like connected by a rope to their side and The tip of the spear it's not pointed. It's actually got a flat end It's like a stun lands. Oh, yeah, where they can like throw it in crap.

Yep So they've got the they've got these you know Throwable things that are ready to be thrown out and they just yell out to the group of you to raise your hands and drop your weapons So they are going to roll a check to essentially to make you guys So it's just going to be a presence role and because there's two of them He's going to give advantage to each other so it's going to be not so not to yell It's gonna be a yellow and green and a blue I'm gonna yell out and tell them that their costumes look silly And add a Disadvantage dice or to disadvantage that you have to spend some of that no, it's just one spring counter Oh, okay perfect. Can you I've got these two black dice from our friend? Okay? So so what is it again?

Yeah, so they're in from So raise our hands and I as a dirty vagrant child raise my hands and flip them off Eat it fuzz okay since it is you doing that. What is your presence? Because they're gonna be rolling against your presence purple ice basically to okay. Yes dirty vagrant child So you clean vagrant with with that your presence is decent and those two black dice will help so let's see what they do Yeah, you did all pretty out to you.

Oh man. Okay, so interesting We've got how we already rolled what three crits in the night Guys are apparently the really another job. So we've got two successes one of them being a crit we've got two failures So they all nullify out they fail they will they fail, but they have a crit so that does special stuff But and then there is then there is three threat So I guess first off my question to you they've got some threat and you're the one sort of attack them What does that look like and I'll tell you what this crit means? Yeah, so they've dealt they've dealt with like punks before but I am a bit younger than probably what they usually deal with and I used I Used vulgar hand gestures and maybe that just shook them a little bit like oh my god There's kids in this firefight.

That's so they're a little shook. So they take full strain damage and pass out. Oh Okay, I do I do like this test out. I think they're both gonna get in black ice brain checks.

I mean they don't want to injure a child My stars and then they faint like gracefully Oh Okay, so the first of guards have gone now we've got two different player turns who does what? Because the guards they haven't attacked you yet But everyone's been given order to drop weapons So I'm assuming if you want to do that you can but it would happen on your turn you wouldn't out of turn drop your weapons You would do it when it's turn so who wants to go and what are they gonna do and someone dropping weapons? So I'm gonna go okay I think it and and as of right now they've been they're looking specifically at the guys in the street the firefight They haven't really look at you because you're up above on the ship So you're kind of out of the way right now yep And so seeing the things kind of start to turn like we had a brief kind of upper hand where we maybe could have gotten out of this But suddenly we've got you know the equivalent of ship cops coming up and it's like man So we've so far just murdered some like weird gang members like maybe we could excuse that between like internal gang fighting or something Don't want to add cop murder to like the list of things that we're wanted for as a general reminder They're coming from the Russian city and the ship to enter the ship You have to go to the other end so you'd be so they would be heading a sense effectively south and the guards coming from the north Right, so if people just want to car starting they can but you're in a position where you could easily start taking shots at them But then like you said you're attacking well cops and they're decently well armored They don't look like jumps like some of the guys were fighting they were just regular old sweet thugs But these are you know armed by the military. Yeah, so take that as you will bad news So I'm gonna look towards salt and see if he so he's just brutally murdered He's in a bad way about like kind of probably still drunk We've established that and still very upset so I'm gonna look and I'm gonna yell to him and try and figure out if he's Can isn't he in any shape to get on and I just kind of start yelling at him and I'm like salt.

Let's go come on. I think Salt get up and he looks up and he sees flip wrestling She's flipp wrestling with Joe So I think what he's gonna do because he's closer She's gonna try to like he gets up saggers flips his gun over to brass knuckle mode See if he can pop Joe so we can run okay, so on her. What is it that you're just yelling at him essentially? If he's if I see him moving Now that I've yelled at him I'm gonna see if I can take a couple of pot shots in at the cops incoming and see if I can get them to like look the other direction or like You're shooting like a fine cover.

Yeah, are you pretending to shoot at them? You're shooting around them and pass them around them and pass them and just see if I can get them to like take cover or like Stay where they are okay, and draw their draw their focus. Essentially. You're giving you're giving covering fire Okay, so to do that.

Let's have you roll a what kind of guy I'm using again I believe I am if I remember correctly using a rifle a rifle. Okay, so it'll be arranged heavy so what I'm gonna do is I will give you the option if you want you can add a black dice to it and that will Essentially you'll be doing trick your shots to like shoot at a very specific thing like shoot a glass Basically if you want to aim closer to them without hitting them You can give yourself a black dice which will make whatever performance that you're doing more effective Okay, and then it's gonna be at range three because they're I assume you're not shooting the guards way out there So you're shooting out the guards I just want to see three purple because they're long range and then whatever your regular range heavy is and if you want to give yourself that black I should can I'm going to yeah, my range heavy is normally so I've got two ability and then two ranks in it So be two yellows, so I know I'm not gonna take the black guys if they get clipped it's not my fault It's okay, and then more purple. Yeah, right Okay, okay, yeah, okay, I'm behind the table. Yep All right, so we have got what are we looking at we're looking at one two three advantage one two failures and then One success, okay, so I think if my math is correct three advantage to disadvantage So we have a net one advantage we have one success and two failures for that one failure Perfect.

No, no you've failed. You've got advantage So first off what your goal is is to distract them you failed at that But something good does happen so maybe they're not this unless you've got a better day I think you don't keep them from looking at you, but you bought a little bit of time to give a blue dice to whoever goes next Cool. Yep. Yep, so they're going so they're still gonna be moving forward Mm-hmm, but you've you slowed them down for a couple of seconds and you've a blue dice to whoever you want to blue dice Go ahead and give it to a result is already kind of guiding him anyways.

Yeah. Yeah, let's do that because it was gonna be like whoever's gonna end up carrying Joe. Yeah, he's also already a black guy, so at least helps the fact that he's drunk I guess we're technically kidnapping at this point so like you're basically I mean it's even technically he was running for his life And you guys said no and then you're you know stealing him so yeah, that sounds like sick kidnapping the alternative is murder Yeah, we're thinking the same No, all right, so it's like salt is never flipped doing something are you trying to pick up Joe? I see I'm I'm closing the distance as I'm doing is you know the gun that I have because I haven't had the opportunity to reload it I flipped it back to brass knuckle mode So I'm trying to I guess flip is struggling with him.

I'm ready to just pop him non-leafly try to knock him out Okay, I'll go first then try to avoid punching him in the face. I want to try and persuade him okay to Come with us because it's better than what's happening here So he's like days and scared he's like oh, you know, he's you know, murmuring you can barely be totally saying what do you say to him specifically? Okay, so like as we're kind of like tussling I'm trying to like get his legs out from underneath him So I'm on a slop struggling and I kind of like kind of push his face over so he can see the guards coming in just like all right Joe was it yeah, Joe stuff up is about to get really messed up here and I I we need to get you out of here Oh, I don't think I trust you guys Joe you are you are what? Will save the world Joe you are the chosen one but you quit talking to him.

It's us in the cops And Rummy that check I'm gonna do a charm check charm check. Okay. He's got a little power I love you are the last airbender He's got a willpower of one so it's gonna be one purple dice because he's both already scared and disoriented you're gonna get extra blue dice I can cuss and drunk all right, so he's not I'll terribly in our favor. Yeah Oh my god so many today two advantages is one threat so that no if I got to one advantage and then two triumphs baby So that means now that you have two successes, but you also have two triumphs So he's my best friend now, right?

So you have a table Yeah, on that table does it doesn't even have a result for two triumphs So you can do two things on that special table basically you can do some crazy shit So child of profit he a hundred percent believe that he is and again So it sounds like your initial goal is you want him to join you and that would be what one tramp would do What is the second triumph is it like he's believes in your cause is he flipping from the brass? What is it? That's a two trimes is a lot. He's your new father like is he actually the chosen one?

He might buy you baked goods. Does Hera have the high ground? I think we can find out exactly where this goes in but I'm gonna say with at least one of the triumphs He is immediately friendly and follows my direction. Okay, so the first one He's friendly that makes sense and then what's what's the second one?

Are you just want to like roll it forward? I'm just gonna roll it forward if it like you know, okay What else is the first conversation you have with him on the ship you can expound upon? I don't want it to be a thing that just goes for forever But the first conversation we have he will remember this moment and then look to you and then you can give him guidance on something Whatever that is we can feel that perfect everyone like that. Okay, everyone like that.

Oh, yeah So with that I'm going to give him I'm gonna tell him to get on to get on flap I get on the dog and we'll get onto the ship together. Okay. Okay. Okay.

Yeah, you sure I give him a pat on the lower back Okay, not his butt. Okay, so that was your action Are then you and him going to move because he can get on to I guess let's make flab have make an athletic check to see Like because this is gonna jump on okay quick Let's have him roll that real quick just to see how effective he is And it'll be against difficulty it would be one, but he's really fucked up So it's gonna be difficulty to so to verbal dice and then whatever his athletics is Yep Okay, I was gonna freak if you overgrids So that's one success no failures then one five advantage versus two threats of three. Okay, so you succeed and you've got three advantage So here's my lottery ticket his concussion wears off well the key the questions was on I think that'll happen on its own, but I think he's only shared I think the the power of the yeah, he's assured by this dog that this dog will keep him safe and he's no longer afraid He just believes yeah, I'm safe No, I'm safe to believe the dog will protect me and then he gets on and then you guys I see move forward for the show Yeah, so with my incidental, let's ride. I also hop on top on top on top So we just see this dog carrying both this you know, revenue child and this you know, ganger towards the back end of the ship So it's gonna take you at least one more turn to get on to the ship So because you know, it's some distance away.

Can we went down the alley a bit? Can we take some strain and move again? You could if you and flop both one of six train You can move again to get to the like the bottom of the bridge thing that connects there's an actual Nothing I think I think I'm gonna do that I think any time we spend out here is bad So I'll just take it one screen or two. I can't remember what I think I thought it was one I'll double check Let's say it's one for now, but then if you look up all other turns are happening I'll let you do that you guys move you're at the bottom of the gang link one more time you can get on so That means it is the second set of guards turns they're going to move up to where the other guards are I think at seeing you guys run I think what they do is they've got their little like proder sticks and they're going to throw them well unfortunately There's a bad angle towards the well the dog and friends.

So I think they're throwing it at our drunk boy. Good So these guys are throwing their sticks at you What is actually what's the range of that they may not arrange to you hold on one second I'll check that they may have to spend some strain Okay, their range is short which means they're gonna have to spend to train to go here And then they can't basically they get to where you guys were they just they spend and they push themselves. Yes, it's clarify It is too strange. It is too strange.

Okay, so these guys spend their strain and then they are both throwing these spear like things with flat ends Oh at salt so what do you have any defense? Oh? No being drunk. No, I mean You are drunk Okay, so it is going to be this and then it is effectively short range because Yeah, you guys are you guys aren't you're there?

Yeah, so we gotta be short range So it's gonna be a one purple and then a yellow and a green and there's gonna be two of these attacks on you So I'm gonna do that for one and then the second one is this Okay, so the first guy got one disadvantage and two advantage so that knows out to one advantage overall the second guy got three successes in a disadvantage so I think what happens is The first guy throws it and it I think it lands right next to you Like it hits a box and what you see is this the stick thing goes in hits the box And then on the side of those little clamps like hook into the box and like grabs the box We see that and go oh shit, and then second one hits you it does zero damage to you Well, no, it'll do sorry one damage to you, but it effectively is not because of your armor Okay, so it's low damage, but it effectively grapples you with like it's grabbed onto your shoulder or your back or something So now you've got this you know spear attached to the side of you and it it stings But it's more attached like your clothes armor. No, no, okay, so it attaches to you I mean, you know, never cool. Yeah, and it's like but you're you're grabbed What uh, what do you do your last player and you're grabbed and say so is this giving me any kind of movement penalty or So you can freely move to them or to a distance away from them But to move further from them you need to break this thing off or you would try to pull them If you just want to run through it you could just try to run out of the ship and then drag this guy But then he may weigh you down it but yeah I mean do that like you know here is still like she still got a rifle up like yelling at you like come on come on So maybe just put on your turn you've got a maneuver and you've got an action if you want to as he said You could spend two strain to take two maneuvers to run to the bottom of the king I think what this is action to like remove it If you want it to try to remember what this is or you could charge the guards you're drunk I'm not charging the guards like he's like I got no beef with these guys They did just hit me in the shoulder But I think what he's gonna do like he's just like fight or flight is kicked in and he's in flight mode But he kind of sees up and see hair there So he's just gonna like grab onto the thing and start making a run for it And he's just gonna pull this guy because he's pissed off that he's being forced to run because he's got plenty of Freelance explore board things where he was forced to run and leave a guy behind so he's not happy about it Okay, um do you remember on the top of your head? Can you take a third maneuver instead of taking a third action?

You can exchange your action for a maneuver. Okay, so it sounds like you just want to run as far as possible If you want you could run three times you have to take two stress and then you actually get onto the ship Okay, then you'd have to make a check because this guy would be attached right right I mean if he falls out if that's what you want to do you would have to spend the strain and make the check to try to Essentially pull this guy so be it okay, so we're gonna go move you to there First off you take two strain damage, okay, and then you're going to roll an athletics check versus this guy's athletics check Okay, so his got Not trained that which is good for you, but he doesn't freak nice As you pull the other guard he's there in group of two so the other guy's going to help him So he's rolling three in the blue and what are you rolling? I have since it's I am trained in this I got one rank and it's I have three bronze Okay, so it's gonna be too green at a yellow can you get some greens because we're all the same time to make this nice and epic Two green big old last pile. Okay, and then you've got the blue from Hera and the black from the end drunk.

Yep, okay Okay, so three two one roll I Got three I got four successes and two advantage and what did you get I got this is disadvantage in it Yeah, that's a bit so I've got overall like to advantage one disadvantage that cancels one advantage with a crit success Okay, so our advantage is essentially null for each other. Okay, so what we have here is I have four six Sis an advantage you have a crit which means you fail He holds on to you, but what is that crit mean something good or special does happen I think he's made it as far as the gangplank is he can feel like I catching his footing and now like I'm holding on to it I'm trying to like wrench myself up the gangplank My shoulder not fully on the ship that's what you I'm gonna put you affect with them But you're up the gangplank then I think you have control the situation between you and him So he succeeded in you, but you've got more control like I can see it like I grab one of the post the gangplank But I turn around and I start grabbing the spear like you're coming with just aren't really in man trying to like freak this guy The fuck out. Okay, sweet. So type of gang we take prisoners So next up is Bob Joe Joe, why don't I keep on a bomb?

It's just it's generic whatever name Joe, but apparently he's important. So I can't forget a useful punishment probably so I think I think he sees the guards And I think he jumps off of flip and just runs up the ship and then heads below deck He spends some strain and runs below deck because he's just scared. Hey yourself Joe. Yeah, so he freaks out He probably screams as he runs past era because he's scared So yeah, he just runs fast and he's effectively out of this town.

He's gone wonderful. So now it's a new round Hera has a perfect thing she unfortunately remember those guards. They got to create something to go first so It does it's just like the players the enemies in any order Yeah, so the guards that are here gonna go first So one of them moves up to near the bottom of the gangplank and he's going to take a so he grabs his spear And he like twists the head of it And then what you guys see is that the spear like reforms the head into a point Oh boy, so now he has a spear that does damage and he goes to stab well He was gonna stab the other guard, but now it's just you and the dog so it's either a child or a dog Don't you dare I how about this? I'm gonna roll on evens it is you on odds It's your dog so that is odd so He stabs your dog.

I'm sorry. It's it's the dice. It's not throw it's not evil Jeff. It's the evil guy.

It's the evil dice Just a heads up. I'm gonna go next. Yeah, you do you Jeff is not hiding any of the dice. We all see everything.

Yep Yeah, there's no jam screens. I don't even any my games. That's bullshit right there. So he's got two yellows and green And it's a melee attack which means it's too purple.

Is there any other bonafars that he would have I soon not? No, okay, well, he's a dog. So he's a dog They have a black dice because there's chickens and dogs. There's that so good boy.

No, that was these guys Those guys have black dice. They're the ones you all that no black. That's not black. That's Wow, so that is Two hits three disadvantage and then advantage so those go out so it's two hits and two advantage So first off what he does they just add the kids dogs, so they're gonna take black on the rest of their shoes forever So it is Five damage base plus one extra so it does six damage to him.

What is his soak? That's so good for so he takes two points of damage shot damn and then I think I think and you flip you Definitely see this he's like got this He's freaked out because he's realized that he's stabbing either a kid or a dog and he does take some strain because he's like Uh, and he's doing his job, but he doesn't like to be doing his job So he does take some strain the other one is gonna do the same thing So again, I'm sorry not the one that I'm currently grappling with The well, yeah, you're you're in control situation. Yeah, you're in control. So yeah, no, he's not doing that He's pulling you.

He's gonna talk about trying to pull up the ship So that's gonna be another athletics check between you and me. Mm-hmm So yeah same checks before so to be for me It's gonna be three greens and then you roll whatever is you roll It was yellow two greens because I spent the blue already And you got your black is drunk, right? I'm still drunk. Okay, ready?

I am now drink it. Yeah, don't drink three two one go one success is all I got three success three advantage and nothing bad from being Shwasted okay, so what that means is I'm going to he tries to pull you and he doesn't because you both succeeded in head three advantage I will let you either clear some strain or if you want to pull this guy over the edge a little bit That's an option you've got because you succeeded so we got a whole ship right to clear strain we do so Pull him to the side like throw him off the side or there's something there's a dock and then there's a ship And then there is a like under carriage, but it's probably like 20 feet down It's so that if they need to do repairs to the ship and it's not really that it's more like you go down There's like a rafters where they can go and then from there There's a ladders they can put out so they can work so I think you know It's not a safe thing. It's a it's a workers thing right right right so I think when I don't want to pull him like very close to the edge like Last chance he's like he's struggling like and like he gives you like he's like Yeah, and yeah, he's I mean there's there's a fire in his eyes. He's not giving up.

Do you pull him over? Do you hold as is? I think we're gonna hold as is okay. Okay, so that was the guards turn who's gonna go next.

Oh, okay I'm not okay. Okay, I don't think that's possible. Okay. Okay.

I'm about firing people's eyes. Yeah, no I'm going to Sprint up up to the other to the guy that stabbed flop and I'm going to we thought we were gonna get Right behind you know, so this is the second round of combat. Yeah, so it's back So as a reminder he uses like servo arm super punch thing at the end of last time he had two rounds left It's getting a second round so it's ready. It's charged up.

It's ready to go I want to push him off of the ship either on to ground or into the abyss I don't really care at the point so if you want to do that But with my face where you are now you're still on flop if you punch him from where you are you can do that Just fine if you want to punch him off you'd have to spend your movement to maneuver around him to push him off Which means you couldn't think it on the ship on the ice you can spend the strain to get on the ship if you wanted to spend it If you successfully knock him off then you can spend the strain on the ship I just want to make sure you understand that if you do that and you fail you may be stuck your father out Okay, but you're okay with that because dudes. Okay sounds good. I like it dangerous things good. Yeah, that works So let's do that role also that doesn't go there That was this was Joey.

So what's the check? Melee check so it's really is it melee or is it brawling? I thought it was brawling but I've got melee written down Let's use melee for now. We can look at it later.

Okay, so I need three greens. Oh, we've got all the greens Purple dice wording. Um, you know, here's what's gonna happen. I'm gonna give you that in terms of those purples and we'll read Okay, so we both spent story points and I've upgraded a purple and red and he's upgrading a green into a yellow We're gonna roll this is a high stakes roll right here.

Okay, so that's two failures and two successes so that washes out That's a net failure to advantage one disadvantage. So it's a net nothing except one advantage. So you miss what does that advantage deal? He runs away So I think you you're trying to freak him out and you punch and how far does your like extend a fist go is it far?

Or does it just like shoot out a really high speed? It just shoots at a really high speed So it probably goes a total of like six inches. Okay So I think what you do is you jump off flop you move the other side of them and you punch and this thing goes right past his head Really fast and he's freaked out by the power of this thing. He's gonna take black dice So he's like what this this kid is not supposed to be dangerous And yeah, cuz if this would have connected he knows that that would have been a bad day for him So he's taking a black dice, but you didn't miss unfortunately.

It's don't stab people's dogs He just he just looks at you Are you gonna take that string to try to run on the ship or yeah, and then John's gonna take off too, okay So flop can get on the ship just fine. Yeah, but you I think because you're in the other side of him You did not come out. I think he's gonna try to grab you I don't think I'm gonna try and leave yet. I don't think I want to take the strain to try and leave You know, okay, so you hold here You just yell you just yell flop you on the ship.

Okay, so you yell at him flop runs on the ship He's now on with hair He's basically gets to hair and then turns around like it's like ready to pounce if you be but he's there So something happens to you things may change sure he's now in guard dog mode good, but he moves we have a second player turn Who's going somebody patch him up? They stabbed him. That's gonna be me. I'm going real quick.

How much else does he have at all? He has eight total so he's down to six. Oh, yeah, he could take another hit. He couldn't take too many other hits You guys need to stop talking like that So Hera is in a great position.

So she's got her rifle kind of pointed outwards. So she moves her She moves and kind of points her rifle directly at Let's see. So it's between the two. So you Relating no, so essentially there's one guy that is connected to salt.

Yeah, so there's one guy that isn't a square off with flip There's two more that look to be coming, but they're there at their at a distance But if they get to you suddenly they're gonna be very outnumbered is the problem is yeah turn they could get to where flip is And then things are really bad for flip. Yeah. Yeah, so I yell at I yell at flop to like go get Go back out and go well, I don't know what do you think you would listen to me over? So you told him to get on the ship would he listen to me if I yelled at him?

I would guess in a future turn probably kind of depends I would say next turn if you want to say something outside of your turn You can say something so if for example if flip is going and you want to yell in order to flop You could do that but anything saying now is going to happen so he just so I I then immediately turn around because you told I yell at the dog for reasons that are unclear I just yell at the damn dog to like go do something helpful And then I so I turn my rifle to the I point it directly at the guy who's grappling with salt and I throw a counter offer Right, so I negotiate with him and I Yeah, I do counter offer Which would be negotiating with him and so I think I'm doing so what's kind of for you checking because my notes are super helpful But it's so an in negotiation it adds to To blue dice for you or two black dice for them. That's my one of the two But I also so I guess yeah, what is the negotiation like yeah, so I point out and I like I like get his attention So I'm like hey fuck face. Yes, you know, it's a solid solid line. Okay.

This is your last chance let go He's gonna hit you over the head Everybody wins or I shoot you in the face right here or he pulls you off and throws you overboard. It's up to you Okay, I just kind of like I look at him and wait and say like finger on the trigger like fucking fight me Okay, sorry, what is the town call again? It's counter offer counter offer. I also have skating tirades So like I can either the tone of that can shift rate this I'm way at the other so counter offer one spur sessions This will be the only time you do it today.

Okay, I'm a user's talent to choose one non nemesis adversary within medium range and make a Opposing appreciation for a discipline check if successful the tag the target becomes staggering until the end of your next turn Yeah, he's a peon you're doing anything at your games aggression You may spend a crit on this check to have the address or become an ally to the end of the encounter. So basically you offer So yeah, you would effectively so staggered with him Essentially son him for the round perfect because then he will let the fuck go you can do whatever you want Yeah, okay, and I'm not gonna spend that because I don't care about him. Okay, so it'll be a good to know negotiation check He's gonna be a simple check. Yep.

Okay, so then it's So his disappointment is a yellow and a green and I get a it's up to the so that's two Greens one yellow. Yep. Okay, so you've got more dice than me. So I'll drink your favor Nice.

I got two advantages. All I got I got a success and I know if I to amounts you got a success and one advantage perfect. So you do disorient him He's like essentially he's like effectively freaked out confused. He like he just stops what he's doing He's like and he's I'm someone yells if someone yells hate fuck face and points again at you I mean, that's that's it seems right.

Yeah, so yeah Yeah, I'm just gonna keep my rifle trained on him and then hope that salt can do the rest That was the second player turn. So now the other set of guards they So now hey fuck face. So I think what I think what's that work. I think what's gonna happen is one of them Remember when I suggested that we just get out of here with all those story points So one one of them jumps on to the guy with salt the other one jumps to well flip And I think what's what's happening is both of these set of guards They are just like one of them grabs onto the guy with the spear and he like grabs to like hold even though this guy He's kind of freaked it like stop making the other one comes and grabs the like the rope and the other one comes up to Flip and like raises his spear and you know points at you and just says just drop a kid just drop in me We can go home safe and he's like raised his spear to do something else based on what you do man It's really great.

We can use your childish childhood status like as a human defense shield. Yes. Keep doing that Maybe eventually they won't want to kill us. So yeah, that's their turn.

They just surround people Good on them. I'm wanting to murder people is I believe salt right? You're gonna last again. So so one essentially one of the guard that's attached to you He's given up around he can't do anything for his next turn, but another guard came up and grabbed his Stick so just doesn't know this is an agreement that was a group we're flipping around And is that so if the spear thing is it like digging into your flesh or is it just like It's grappled on to the person.

Yes, it's designed for grabbing people and pulling away Now it's not enough to kill him, but it is enough to like grab on now. He could try to rip it off Because otherwise you're not gonna be probably can't pull two guys unless you pull out a feet of you could Mm-hmm. It is drunken, but very enraged Right now, it's really just a one-v one because the other guys given up I was wait there. He's doing the blue guys because there's is Right there at this point is still yelling him to get on the fucking ship you fucking moron He's about halfway up the gangplank right now.

Mm-hmm. Flip is the one in real danger He's got two guys looking at him and one of them is raised as it's the one that's raised at flip It's still in like grabbing mode not stabby mode because he's the one that freaked out about a second kid So I think what I'm gonna do is like I have much other option once like I see this guy You know, like I hesitate and they'll get grab him. So I just like I gotta rip it off But that's only option I have Yeah, okay, I'll roll me a athletics check. Okay, so it's one rank and three bronze So to be yeah, yeah, yeah, and then it's going to be You got your black normal.

Yes, it's going to be too too. I'm gonna use Make it a red yeah, then I'm going to do the same. Oh, you don't think of another yellow Like I went first, but it's like we just up the odds completely which I love so much high risk And here we go. I'll ask it guys for rolling.

Okay, that is two successes two failures They nullify out so you have a net two failures and two advantage. So you fail to pull this thing out. What's that? What's that advantage me?

You have failed? So my hope is like they're watching me just like like a fucking mad man Just rolling this and it's like and again, you're still drunk So you and that's probably why this failed is you like it's trying to grab it cans because you don't have full motor skills right now Right, right, right, right? So I think the advantage like you know If it's barbed in me and I try wiggling around I think they can kind of see the the blood start to like go off and And maybe it's someone straight faced like just like ripping their face out like terrifying like what I'm grounded about like I look the guy that still has like a steely determination like screaming about it But not breaking eye contact as the blood's running down my arm Okay, so maybe that's what that advantage is you like knowing yourself to the pain So I'm gonna give you a blue dice whatever thing you do next and then I'm gonna give a black dice to him because they're free Dao because you're mad man. I fucking mad man Um you've still got a maneuver if you want to try to run there's two of them holding now Well a guy and then one guy just that just standing there I feel like that should get a disadvantage to their role if he's got that like Stun guy trying to maneuver them One of them is free to have because of a kid the other one is freaked out because and then so they're gonna have a number of black Dice, but that is a check you can do now.

It's all two of you ones What can be a bit more difficult, but it's something you can try for what would that check so effectively what it's gonna be is He's rolling his regular athletics check which is going to be three greens But then he's going to get a blue dice from getting help from his friend Right, but then they're going to have one black dice for being freaked out about a kid and the black is over there because they're freaked out about You just not caring cuz you're mad man. It's gonna be three green two black and blue for them What would you have on that? I'd have two green one yellow plus the blue and then the black So it's it's a very it's a fairly three points at this point you guys a lot of So I think yeah, I think I'll upgrade let's do that. So I go to yellow one green the blue and the black Okay, one green So we got a lot of dice like so Think the wall dice again make it easier three two one and roll So I've got three advantage one failure one success and a triumph I got one success to advantage So my two advantage kill that you're to advantage.

I have one success knows out That's a failure so one was this your role as well. Yeah, okay, so those turn all out. Yep. So yeah, you do succeed Barely so yeah, you succeeded.

Oh wait that's a that that's a failure and I only have So Okay, so here's what happens is that and that cancel out that effectively cancels out the success part of this So you did not succeed, but you still have an advantage in crit So what's that look like you see you again? You didn't climb up the game link right there Hold it to be one you're right under it, but something very good does come with us. What is that something good? Maybe you do pull this guy off.

I think like just watching me go ham on myself That maybe I noticed the rope loosens just a little bit Maybe they're not pulling as hard now and maybe like I can see like some of the barbs starting to stick out a little bit So I've gained slack a little bit. Yeah disgusting So yeah, what I'll do for that is because it's a great I'll give you two blue dice for the next check to pull this thing off nice It's only for that exact action, but you found a thing you can use on your next turn to pull it off cool and then Well, the other guys in the hole so it's back to the guards turns Jesus, so I think I think it's gonna be the guards that are Trying to pull you or in the other guards. They're trying to hold on a flip They don't want to attack a child into the one with spears so they're they're waiting to see what you do first So it's gonna be the guards trying to pull you so I think again We're gonna do it somewhere thing. They're gonna try to pull you again this time that this orient was only for a round So unfortunately he didn't get that to succeed.

So now we're gonna be rolling This is not pull you in there at this point. They're just trying to pull you like effectively off the gangplank That would then fall down below but then they're gonna hold you so that's their goal They're rolling this and you're gonna roll athletics for me. Okay, let's again one two green You know green cool, and then black Because it's drunk Actions have consequences. They really really do getting a thing and it's a good one drunk.

All right three two one and So that's rough. So I got four successes. Yeah, how many did you get three plus a failure? So overall of two you get to so that and that kill out that cancels out these advantage advantage So these guys have two successes.

So I think what they do is they do they pull you they yank you off If you want to avoid fall I guess what the question is is you're gonna be falling down as a reminder You can also spray punch it with other weird fun things if you want to find If you wanted to have something down there you could do that to your advantage walk is so you're going to plant below the ship Right, so that's something advice for your right? So they pulled down both of them spent their turn to do this because they that's why they had all their dice because they're both just Yanking on you to pull you off of the ship. So that is their turn now there are two players Available, okay, all right And you are currently now on the underbelly of the ship you do need you are gonna take some damage though You're gonna take for falling down so that I've fallen off the gangplank You fall off the gangplank now you are landing on those like gang those like gang the like stuff underneath where they work from so It's like a 24. I'm gonna say it's I'm gonna say it's three points of damage ignores your bronch because you can't what stand it's gonna take three damage, okay?

So all right, let me clarify So 14 how difficult is it gonna be for us to get him back up to get him up as difficult if you were to Grab onto the ship and you guys take off that he could do but then he would be hanging below the ship as you fly away from We're gonna have to murder everybody. This is great. Um, and then what so what's the situation? Are you still holding?

There are two guards next to him one of them has the spear instead I'm only has a spear and grab mode and they basically told him don't move kid Hera loudly says fuck just you know, no not directly to anybody, but you know feels like an accurate, you know thing thing to say So she's gonna keep saying fuck this god damn it I'm she's gonna move her rifle and she's gonna she's gonna like yell at the guard saying like move and I will blow your brains out And she's gonna like meet them in the eyes and say look and which set of guards is this do I mean one by flip? Okay, the other ones are still attached to salt is below At least distracted like and probably no one has noticed the weakness in the latch but salt So no one else has seen the like the thing that's kind of broken so at least you can be like okay Like maybe you can just like it be like I give up Whatever so she's here is gonna switch focus for the second thinking that she has the most chance to help out flip Okay, so it sounds like you're just trying to intimidate them into okay, so maybe How would you do that other than just yelling would you do anything else special? Would you shoot around them? She's in the air?

I'm in a pole because you got they don't have guns they have spears you have a gun I'm a story point here. I and these are just city guards that they're not They don't know anything quote unquote correct all right now they're guards But I wouldn't call them chump guards because they are armored they've got weapon they got transforming weapons. They are military units, right? So Hera Pulls the grenade out of her pocket.

I use a story point and she like she pulls she lowers her rifle She pulls the pin and then just like holds the grenade Okay, so what is this right for? She is gonna look them in the eyes and she's gonna say let the kid go let him get on the ship right fucking now and then do it so can I do whatever the Will quick draw work in this or so quick quick draw and rapid reaction or either of those gonna give me any additional like Role points for that so quick draw I believe just lets you draw something very quickly Yeah, so only taking a maneuver to a lot of yeah, you can put off a free and the other one was what again Rapid reaction yeah, you can't do your software number of strains is talent add an equal number of successes to a vigilance or cool Checkmate to determine initiative values. So this is like an initiative thing. Yeah, no mind So I used counter-offer or skating tirade.

I can do the other one Okay, so you can use skating tirade. Yeah, yeah Yeah, so change yeah, just change the tone of exactly what I said okay To yeah, just like fuck you motherfuckers let the fucking kid go or I swear to God I will blow us all up and nobody gets home Okay, so it's a corrosion check for basic for these star you generate when I move into a range of strain for each advantage When I mean effect was getting tirade suffers additional strain So basically you're just trying to doubling up on the yeah and by pulling out the grenade I'm going to give you a blue dice on this check because you're you're again you've kind of gone crazy Yeah Here what essentially this is this is going to go off the questions wearing how yeah, I've so yeah And you very publicly pulled it so they can see it yeah, okay, so yeah that my rifles down and so like the pin is Gotta put the right way pull this out like very quickly just a bunch of motions now you're holding out like brick from you know yeah Yeah, yeah, of course I'm noticing anchor man. Yeah, yeah, look at it. Yeah, so this is gonna end well for everybody And I'm gonna take this time to again say we could have been out of here by now Yes, I had to wait for Joe who is down useless chosen one sitting in the damn boat.

Okay So yeah, it's gonna be that was coercion. Okay, so I've it's a crucial and it's a two and it's a two and I'm well, which is too so So too yellow to purple and you're going to get a blue dice because you're gonna get another blue dice for Because they're basically they're all free. They got a bunch of black guys already freaked out. So I'm giving you that is they're already freaked And now you're pulled out again in insane woman is now pulling out explosives.

Oh, yeah All right, so that went pretty okay. I think so one two three four five Six versus oh, yeah, okay. So maybe not so good successes cancel out. So you've got how many successes?

Just the one and then failures is one so you're failures. How many advantages versus advantages? What that means is something so no because crazy free success that's what I move into a range reach All right, so yeah, they're free so okay So that means because you got did you extra they don't take they don't take the base Well, it can only affect each I once because she could affect a three guys she failed the original check But she's seen on the advantage so essentially both of them are going to take a strain So they're freaked out by the fact that you've got this grenade and they're ready So they do gain stress open open negotiations here. Oh, yeah, yeah, it does a strain to both of them If you want you've got that ability once per session you can double any amount of strain you do to a person because if you Like basic class ability.

Yeah, you could double take two strain. What is that? That's your no that is your like basically It's your it's your starting ability. Yeah, yeah Yeah, yeah, let's do that.

I don't know whether that's on the sheet It's written down. Okay, that's where I put mine anyway. Yeah, I'm gonna do that it is I just wrote special ability. So that's not really helpful at all.

Yeah, I'm gonna do that and Yeah, my fearsome countenance and they both collapse and they die right there. They both take two points of strain These are you know trained guardsmen so they don't they're not running away They're just freaked out because a crazy lady has a grenade now. I've seen this on lawnmorder This is when they bring in the hostage negotiator. Yeah, I mean pretty much sure so who's going next you're below I am currently hanging from you have two guards with six pointed at you, but they're freaked out because of her Also, you've got an extra advantage if you want to give him a blue you could because you don't need to spend it on them Because only two who needs it more at this point.

I would say yeah I get to blues if I'm gonna check with the thing out of my shoulder. Yeah, you've already got those All right, so yeah, I you know, I yell at you like get on the fucking shit She's a child she bought you some time They're freaked out, but they are still there and one of them has a weapon raised to stab you if you run, okay But that's not you could just straight run you may get stabbed and then take off and then hope that he feels It's not well, but not well like you guys no one is current you're attached But otherwise if you're willing to take the attack and you can both detach it and jump on the bottom of the ship You guys could get out of here in just a fireball of a mess basically. Whoo. That is yeah episode title.

There we go Fireball of a mess. Yeah, I'm pretty hardy. So I'm just going to I'm gonna yell something really mean and then run away. Okay.

What do you think? Guard more like shard Okay Okay, nothing like you know your mother loved your brother more than you but she was always too afraid to tell you your spears over Okay, well, that's a good one. So when you run one stabs you Black guys hair out in these three decades. So it's just those two get just those two black guys Okay Two failures two successes blacks did work they know out To advantage in one disadvantage.

So I think all he does is like he scrapes you a little bit to help out if anyone's Wanna be attacking basically he's getting a blue dice to one of his other friends, but you make it up the game point He misses the other one. He was like ready to do somebody wasn't actually So it's just the one stabbing at you as I run up the game play I take a look over to see that Salt is in a place. He's probably like trying to like fuck with a sting on his shoulder buddy grab on we're going for a ride What I take off into the ship. I use a second maneuver to make it to the cockpit.

Okay. Yeah And I got it set up. So let's so I yell back at him Like I got it. Have you like rigged up like a go button?

Yeah Yeah, so like I assume when I was getting everything ready Like I just had the only thing you need to do is unhook I've got like a rope just kind of connected to the like the mechanism So all you need to do is unhook the rope and press the pedal and I like yell back Okay, so as he's running you're yelling out these instructions and he gets there you untangle the rope you press the button We're gonna find what happens next in part
