Necronaut Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 (edited) Squad Alpha Bolter Assault: Following Svelk's cue, Vesalius primed and hurled a second Krak grenade at the Mortifier before withdrawing to take cover behind an adjacent pillar. The explosive detonated satisfyingly against the pain-engine's right arm, causing some minor damage, though not enough to compromise its operation from what he could tell. Perhaps luring the crazed machine into overextending its position could allow for the squad's eccentric techmarine or one of the devastators to unleash a withering barrage upon its likely more lightly armored posterior? Vesalius had little desire to put his life on the line for any of the Iron Gods, but knew the Kill-Team would succeed or fail in equally bloody fashion depending on the course of action they took in the coming moments. He mulled his options as he crouched behind a column of masonry and scowled at the bleak calculus of their circumstances. Bolter Assault:Attack: Throw Krak Grenade at Mortifier BS45 + 5 (Follow the Traveller's Path) + 20 (size differential): 70 Throw Krak Grenade: 1d100 51 51 -- success, 1 DoS (hit location: 15; Right Arm) Krak Grenade Damage: 3D10+4X, Pen 6, Blast 1 Krak Grenade Damage: 3#1d10 2 10 6 2 + 10 (righteous fury auto-confirms vs Imperium forces) + 6 + 4 = 22 damage Righteous Fury Damage: 1D10 Righteous fury: 1d10 4 4 additional damage Total damage: 26, Pen 6 Damage Calculation: 26 damage - AV12 (18 - Pen 6) - TB5 = 9 SI damage.

(x) Decimus: Krak Grenade at Mortifier. 4 SI suffered on Left Leg. Then we'll be back to Svelk for his regular Actions... Ithan lets out an eager laugh as he casually adds another primed Krak grenade to the cluster. It explodes low and the mechanical monster misses a step, stumbling momentarily before righting itself. The Techmarine frowns and quickly draws his combi-weapon instead. After a moment, the plasma coils running along its spine begin to glow blue-white. *** Mazer Rackham and Necronaut 2 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/370180-to-plunder-the-stars-themselves-episode-iii/page/38/#findComment-5770441 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beren Posted December 8, 2021 Share Posted December 8, 2021 Squad Alpha Svelk slams his axe into the statue to arrest his momentum, glaring at the charging war machine. He sees explosions erupting all around it, shrapnel tossed against the sarcophagus to no effect, the slight tumble as gouges are blown into the motive mechanisms. "GO FOR THE LEGS!!!"

Mazer Rackham Posted December 9, 2021 Share Posted December 9, 2021 (edited) The second shot of the bolt pistol howled in close, and hampered by untangling himself from the line, and Radago's demand of the next kill, his reactions were slowed. Dodge: AG 53 D100: 92 Fail, 3 DoF He grunted as the bolt round sheared into the lower right concave swell of his plastron, finding a weak spot in the flexsteel sheath where his abdominal plates abutted. A flesh wound to remind him that even though armed and armoured, he was not inviolate. Quod Ergo Demonstrandum. His thoughts were truncated by the matter-of-fact chirp in his ear. +Unknown number of guards headed your way, cutting off their reinforcements.+ Orphiel blink-clicked an acknowledgement to the Breacher, and letting Radago slake his thirst for violence on the Arbites Officer, he let Argo swing by the strap across he chest, and the sound of Zachariah's Steel scraping free of the scabbard tested the air, before he lunged, a hammer to Brynjarr's anvil, a sword to Radago's jugular dagger thrust.

Mazer Rackham Posted December 9, 2021 Share Posted December 9, 2021 (edited) Orphiel: Opposed roll to remain in control of grapple: Str 66 D100: 027, PASS, Plus 3 DoS +2 DoS (Unnat Str x2) +1 DoS (Hulking) = 6 DoS. Orphiel wins by 6. The size and power of a Space Marine at close quarters was proven by the struggle of humanity against the Emperor's Genhanced bioscience. The sheer size and power Orphiel could bring to bear tore the Arbite off his feet, and in one well-aimed toss, sent him crashing into his comrade hastily charging in from behind. Both bodies slammed into the wall, and each other, as asteroids colliding in the void. Bone crunched, flesh bruised and carapace armour flexed under the heavy impact of one sturdy brawler catapulted into another. Their collision elicited pained grunts followed by a tangle of limbs and clattering equipment. Orphiel bore them close attention, but they slopped down into flat recumbence, unconscious. He grunted a small note of approval as the other Arbites in range took one look, and may have licked their lips in the barest hesitation of what they witnessed, but secretly in was in satisfaction both Judges were alive. The Emperor would provide them with the fighting chance he gave all his soldiers. He rolled his shoulders and addressed the squad vox. ++Two X-Rays neutralised. Continuing.++ EDIT: Typo begone!

Necronaut Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 (edited) Squad Alpha Vesalius ducked behind his pillar as a great gout of burning prometheum burst forth from the Mortifier's arm-mounted heavy flamer, threatening to immolate the apothecary. Fortunately, Odysseus' psychic shield proved to be a potent insulative barrier which robbed the inferno of most of its fury. The masonry behind him blackened under the fiery onslaught, as did any exposed pieces of his armor, but he had avoided being consumed.

Machine God Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 (edited) Squad Alpha Whilst Draak walked to the bottom of the stairs he tracked the heavy weapon operator of the Sisters of Battle, but the Mortifier drew his ire.

Lysimachus Posted December 10, 2021 Author Share Posted December 10, 2021 Squad Beta: The unengaged Arbites suddenly skid to a halt or pause in raising their weapons to return fire. They seem to be listening to something you cannot hear. As one they begin to retreat, a few loosing off shotgun rounds as they go, but more as a deterrent than a real attempt to harm you. You edge forward and almost immediately see why. The Arbites' commanders have quickly realised that their troops cannot hope to face you piecemeal and have therefore pulled them back and formed them up as a unit at a choke point within the facility. They are waiting for you. As you advance, you might catch a glimpse of a figure in a dark blue greatcoat disappearing behind the Imperial lawmen.

Sensing the opportunity he dashed forwards into cover of an open storeroom door way. Orphiel confirmed further kills over the squad vox and moments later appeared in the side corridor the first guards had headed into, that side was obviously clear. Refocusing on the guards down the main entrance way, they had now reformed at the direction of some Officers. Clustered together like that in the bulkhead door they opportunity for a grenade was just too good, stepping forward he arced a frag grenade over the front line.

Mazer Rackham Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 (edited) Beta: Officer A goes before me, will re-jig as required. Any chance to try and win by guile and misdirection was gone. One or two casualties could have been explained as a misunderstanding, the still living but unconscious men a peace offering. As Radago launched up and over and Brynjarr tossed a grenade, Orphiel settled his sights and snapped his shot selector with his thumb. Such a tightly packed mob was asking for trouble from any foe such as the Astartes. A panicky mortal mob could be cowed by the shotguns and cudgels. Not so here.

Trokair Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 Beta Dodge, Ag:48 D100: 22 Pass, 2 DoS Despite the casualties inflicted upon them in the confines of the bulkhead door the guards held their ground, and reinforcements were still streaming in. The Arbiters had certainly been drilled well, though more time on the firing range might have also been needed as Brynjarr ducks past their retaliatory shotgun blast.
