"No more! I Yield I YIELD!" Shouts the first robber as he gets on the ground, putting his hands behind his head. "I WOULD RATHER DIE THEN PAY A MODEST FINE!" the second shouts as he continues running toward the boat.

What do you do now?
"FOOLISH FOOL!" Burn the runner down.

Continue on to the castle until they get within 200 meters then form a firing line and swap to combat mode, take aim together then open fire aiming for the vehicles engines first to blow them up.

'This is some.... interesting medicine. Care to explain?'
Unholster pistol, hold it at the ready, though not directly at them.

Roast him with what spell?


---------------------

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

From what you can tell by eyesight alone, there are two hover craft with two jeeps escorting a troop transport truck filled with armed soldiers. The jeeps and hovercraft are armed with light armor and machine guns, though the truck looks to be unarmed in itself. A good distance behind them is the small tank, with an escort of about a dozen men. There is also the artillery to worry about, though they would probably have to call targets in this galaxy.

The terrain is flat, and desolate, giving no cover to either side. There are several craters that may slow the vehicle down, otherwise they have a mobility advantage.

Knowing the enemy, would you like to change or continue with your plan?

"Wo, put that thing away mate." One of the men states as they back away, hands in front of them in the "stop what you are doing" motion. "Nothing in here is illegal, mate. We didn't even get it from the mob or nothing." "Yeah! We didn't even get it on our side. That's why we were stopped yesterday. We were making all the stuff we couldn't make on the other side."

"You see mate, we gonna sell this stuff here. Ain't no law against it, ain't no cops to stop us. They ain't never heard of this stuff here. We will get em all hooked on our stuff, selling it real cheap, then raise our prices. They will give us whatever we want! It'll be just like...just like...damn, what did you call it?" "The Opium wars." "Yeah, just like the opium wars. Our stuff ain't high quality or nothing, but we will get the whole country begging for it like it was the best ever cut. We will be kings, and ain't no one gonna even try to stop us!"

Looking at your gun, they back off a little bit. "But we ain't greedy mate, we will give you a cut of the profits if you want in. Just put that thing away..."

What do you do now?

Head for the castle, when the enemy is coming into range turn on combat mode and focus all fire on the vehicles engine blocks.
Walk backwards towards the castle at the same time.

Shoot the first man. If the second puts up any sign of resistance, shoot him also.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

You start to head for the castle, making little progress as the enemy swiftly approached you. Your team turns on their guns as the enemy approaches, the men in the truck quickly exiting. There was about thirty on foot, with the vehicals in front of them. The tank is still in the back, the artillery can come any time it feels.

The men get behind the jeeps, using them as cover. The hovercraft get in front, and begin shooting from mounted machine guns.

What do you do now?

You fire a fire bolt toward him, but you get a catchy song stuck in your head and and something goes wrong. The red light is dull and lukewarm, only giving him a small sunburn on his arm as he jumps in the boat, laughing. "YOU WILL NEVER CATCH ME ALIVE!" he shouts as the boat turns and runs away.

For a few minutes. The boat quickly fills with water, sinking in the deep water of the lake. "...I put holes in it when they are distracted." The young man who was getting robbed earlier stated, shrugging his shoulders.

What do you do now?
-------------

Last time you scored a critical, this time you only did one damage. The circle of life. Or death, as the case may be.

Drug Dealer 2

You line up the first shot perfectly, putting a bullet directly in the first man's heart. He dies almost instantly, his fresh blood running down the vehicle as the sound of your gun fills the silent town. The second man run, using the wall of the truck to shield himself from you as he yells "Help! Help me! There is a crazy bastard with a gun coming to kill me! And you! Help!", before you are able to act.

What do you do now!

Continue retreat, shout for the people in the castle to cover us and hope they hear. Fire at will as we retreat aiming to suppress.

You begin retreating, in battle mode making horrible time. You shout at the castle to cover you, but the walls are as uncaring and unhelpful as the mountains in the distance. Your cries for assistance are completely ignored. Your suppressing fire is working decently, though the vehicals make it difficult. The enemy appears to have heavier weapons then the last group, it looks like they had been warned by the survivors of the first attack. The tank is still coming slowly.

What do you do now?

--------------
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

You begin walking out of the village, to the surprise and apathy of the village people. Cries of "Ummm....Thanks, I guess." and "...I could have taken them, you know." filled the air, commenting on your heroism. "What do we do with the guy over there?" More asked. "Should I not have poked some holes in that? Maybe I should poke holes in him instead?" the being robbed man asked.

You continue to walk on the dust path, making it to the other side of the village in mere minutes. The bird sits on a nearby apple tree, squawking its complements on your battle as you leave.

Looking out in the distance, there are two dirt paths. One leading towards tall mountains to the right, one rounding the lake to the left. In the middle is a field of yellow flowers.

You continue backing away slowly as the vehicals assault your position. Your cries for help are still ignored, the white walls watching as your men get shot. Your enemy fights particularly well this turn, and your team fights particularly poorly. One man receives a minor injury on his arm, though no bleeding occurs.

What do you do now?

...I don't really like the way I implemented mass combat here. Didn't really have mass combat in mind when making this, though in retrospect I should probably have made some. Though I have a new idea for mass combat, based off of a rulebook I was reading. Essentially, this would make mass combat a lot more like single combat, with groups of people representing a single enemy. Should I try this out for the remainder of the fight?

You pick several of the flowers, making a hat out of them. Not just a hat, but the best hat. Ever. All craftmanship was of the highest quality. Children will look at this hat and cheer, grown men will gaze at its prettiness and shed tears. Women will throw things at you. Your mom will be proud. All artists of the world will quit their jobs, now being unnecessary. When you walk by, nations will stop their wars to hug each other, only to start a far bloodier war to see who gets to behold your hat more. The only flower hat you have seen better then this was made by you, when you were five years old. This is almost as good as that one...
