Bankor

Having this amount of help and support is unusual for Hacha, so it honestly catches him offguard.

"Err, yes. Thank you." He reaches into his military pack a pulls out a stimpack, jabbing himself in the neck. With a shudder, he turns to the task at hand, trying to focus.

"Well...here...goes...everything." Hacha links his cyberbrain to the connection, trying the "don't try this at home" maneuver he had shown to Rav once before.

D8 Defense Grid, Computers (Intellect) Daunting with two upgrades. Destiny spent for positive upgrade: 4eA+2eP+1eB+2eD+2eC 1 success, 5 advantage


Hacha hears a beep, and then something seems to click

Strain: 4/12

The sniper locked onto the Duros but then was met by a droid's body. "Maybe if I..." She fired her blaster bolt and managed to only cause the droid's blaster to fly out of its hand. "No, no!"

The Hutt Enforcer left standing fired a shot of vengeance into Sabine! "I could use some help over here!" He yelled to the newcomers.

Veeone looked down. It's gun was on the ground.

"This does not compute."

It picked it up.

"This does compute. Admin Tsuko please remain behind Veeone."

It looked back at the sniper . . . and shot the single wounded enforcer.


In the face.

"I'm a comin' Sabine!" Rav leapt out from behind his improvised cover and ran forward to her position. Activating his electronic sighting system he released another massive wave of pulse rounds into the group of enforcers.

"Boom! Ya son's of ugly primates."

The Shistavanen really seemed to be enjoying himself.

The official job is done,

The turrets are set, as command has asked.

But in Hacha's mind, there is a vivid memory of a prisoner exchange. In his memory, such an event was supposed to be sacred, and yet, he had found himself brutalized by sniper fire.

There was decency in the battlefield. These Mother Nerf Herder Fuckers had broken the basic tenants. They had reveled in it.

But they didn't think about Hacha. Hacha was the friendly fix-it man. Hacha did not like fighting. Hacha did not like warfare.

Because Hache fuckin' played for keeps.

"We got bodies? Toss me those mother kriffing grenades right now. We are going to do somethin'~~~~"

Maneuver: True Aim
Action: Shoot!

D8 LN Round 4 Shoot the Minions, True Aim: 3eP+1eA+3eB+1eD+1eS 2 successes, 2 advantage, 1 Triumph

Enough damage/Triumph to clean up.

The sniper took a breath and aimed straight for the center mass this time. It was a successful hit, surely great enough to fell a less sturdy target. But V1 still stood from the shot, much to her chagrin. She lifted her rifle and retreated out of sight. "The defense grid is offline. Recommend we leave the outpost and regroup with the supply gatherers.

"By the way, a mechanic is being cute with some bombs on corpses. Be wary of our own but Malto Brin and the rest of the aruetii will have to deal with it on their own."

Combat over! Congratulations!

Veeone was hit again. Which was its job really. Part of it at least.

"Armour penetration imminent."

It looked up at the sniper position.

"Enemy sniper has withdrawn or relocated. Suggest we do the same. Specialist Devaroo, Admin Tsuko, there is an illegal disruptor rifle close by. Republic Law requires that such weapons be confiscated and destroyed."

"Easy VeeOne. Admin command, you need immediate maintance"

"Good job everyone, whew." She seemed relieved, at least. "Do you guys need any help?"

OOC: Strain recover
D8 LN Strain recovery: 3eA 3 successes, 2 advantage


Assisting in case someone wants to heal V1 with mechanics

"I am going to need some time in Medical" Hacha responds. "But it should be far shorter than last time. Veeone is a strong gust of wind away from shutting down, so he should take priority"

"This area is not safe for the full maintenance procedures this droid requires. Veeone considers recovery and destruction of the illegal disruptor rifle a priority."

It was backing off from the sniper position slowly, scanning the area carefully.

"Does anyone require emergency medical attention?"

"Veeone's right, and we should see if it's owner's still kickin'. Hey Hacha, can you patch up Veeone while I take care of that?" Rav bounded back to secure the rifle and check on Malto Brin.

Day 8 LN. Strain recovery: 2eA 3 successes, 1 advantage

The mercenary still showed lifesigns. He certainly was not going to get anywhere fast on his own if he was awake with a broken leg.

Shaking his head at the malignant weapon the Shistavanen pulled out a tool and put it completely out of commission for the moment. He then placed it in his pack and made a few calculations.

"This kriffbag's still alive. Let's take him with us."

Checking the Merc for concealed weapons Rav then pulled out a roll of tape and bound him hand and foot. Next he hefted him up onto his shoulder with the aid of his new mechanical arm.

(OOC: is that okay with you Nekoinu?)

Malto was certainly not a subtle man. All weaponry was clearly visible and none of it was particularly illegal like a disruptor rifle. A knife, a pistol, and a few incendiary grenades. The labels have been replaced with brutish ones with phrases such as, "Everyone burns" and "I'm too hot."

"Hm, maybe we should take care of those before they're accidentally jostled by his ego...."

OOC: Loot the grenades?

Veeone stared at the grenades for a short while. It seemed to processing the words written on them.

"These statements are technically correct . . . "

"I'm sure that Command will have some questions for him." Hacha slaps some duct adhesive strips on Veeone.

"Worst armour breach repaired. Self repair systems are online but Veeone expects long oil bath will be required to expedite full repair."

It looked down at the prisoner, waving it's left hand across the 'Mandalorian'.

"Diagnostic systems reveal prisoner has broken leg. Calculations show prisoner would be unable to walk even if consciousness was restored."

15/18 Wounds
7/11 Strain

Think a Triumph on a heal cures a crit, but I don't have any.

At full Encumbrance, but can drag the fake Mando along with us if needed.

Sabine injected a stimpack, and felt relief and painkillers spread through her veins. "I'll drag him along... might be worth talking to him tomorrow about what he knows." She hauled the unconscious wannabe. "You holding up alright, specialist V1?"

"He's right about that oil bath. I did my best at the quick and dirty fix, but he could use some serious maintainence."

Hacha sighs a little, seeming to relax a bit now.

The droid nodded at Sabine.

"Veeone is still combat functional. Charge level is high due to self portable power systems. Suggest we move to a more defensible position due to enemy sniper not being neutralised."

Rav looked at the grenades and shook his head. "Dweeb. Alright team let's drag this sorry ass back to base. Nice work by the way, that was smooth."

Grabbing the last few bits and pieces Rav gave Sabine an assist with the wannabe Mandalorian.
