Lohen snorts derisively and pulls his revolver out of his leather duster with a flourish. "Vhat, this is vhat you send me up against? Bah, it will not take any time at all."
The German then fires off a shot at the dummy [72+27=99] and hits it right in the center of its head, where its forehead would be.
"See, easy."

Lohen shoots [1] VS [3], missing completely.

The robot responds by [10] VS [2] swiftly punching him in the face [8] VS [5], dealing 3 damage.

Lohengrin gives it the most pissed glare he can muster. "Fuck! Die!"
And with that he pistol whips the goddamn thing.

By the looks of it, Lohen lives and dies on his Bravery. As long as he's using it, he's rather hard to hit. As soon as he runs out, everything hits.

Not only did you sum up his combat stats, but you also summed up his character. Bravo.

I think Bravery replaces all the relevant stats when he does something heroic but is also limited, acting like a cross between MP and MAG.

Ah screw it, I'll try running a joint combat test. This will be with Lohengrin and Null using this scenario. Hopefully a high-collateral damage Mach 3 fire fight against gattling gun wielding UAVs and a Cold War-era doomsday device will provide enough opportunities for Lohengrin to use Bravery in order to test it.

162 decibels worth of pressure thunder through the air. Civilians crumple and rupture, soon to be buried amidst the rubble of the crumbling buildings and the unmanned bomber's radioactive exhaust.

It was little more than a hazy blur to the two figures. They stood atop the first unmanned interception platform, gazing through the pellucid bubble of twisted reality towards their stoic target. The perpetrator, an eighty-eight foot long, nearly six foot wide cruise missile tearing through the air at Mach 3. Its ramjet and Tory reactor roaring in apparent silence.


Lohengrin [15/15] [54/54]
Null [45/45] [4/4]
Pluto [400/400] [0/0]

Null clicks its voice recorder and 'speaks', if it may be called that, into it. "Commencing data log..."

Lohen curses and steps back, taking another shot at the thing.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The German raises a hand to his face to shield himself from even a little bit of the wind. "Gottes Stimme! Ve'll never get anything done from over here...Vell, nothing ventured..." With that Lohen backs up a little and then fucking jumps at the missile.

Roll will be presented in the format roll/stat followed by any modifiers.

Turn Order:
Null: 13/16
Lohengrin: 6/6
Pluto: 5

[-4 Bravery Points] [6/27, target is 3] (successful activation) with a great leap, Lohengrin lunges out of the protective bubble, rapidly decelerates and manages to somehow gather a secure footing on the Pluto. Even though they were traveling at Mach 3, and the shockwave of air around it is pulverizing buildings, and its nuclear reactor is spraying radiation and contamination everywhere.
WARNING: Bravery Lock Until Lohen gets back into the cocoon of one of the interceptors, Bravery will be drained by 4 BP per turn in order to tell the concepts of air resistance, air pressure and ionizing radiation to fuck off. On the other hand, his critical chance is doubled against the Pluto to 27%. Drones will have a -2 SPD penalty to evade his attacks on their first turn.

The unmanned weapon ejects a warhead upwards, the device quickly decelerating. It seems that the city is going to be in for quite a bit more trauma. Detonation in 3 turns.

Kneeling and steadying its accursed weapon, Null gazes down the scope, ensuring that it will hit the enormous missile right in front of it which isn't even attempting any kind of evasive maneuver. [10/16 * 1.5 vs 5] A Raufoss Mk 211 round sails straight into the Pluto, [75/100, target is 92] (no critical) inflicting [5/16 *1.5] (rounding to nearest) 8 damage.

Null [45/45] [4/4]
Lohengrin [15/15] [50/54]
Pluto [392/400] [0/0]

Ok, So far I have it set to XD8, which is powerful, I'm thinking I reduce it to (X/2)D4 which has a minimum damage of 50 and a High of 200. IT is dodgable which is as planned, and the attack is a major spell with a TN of 9. The paper used in the attack cannot be recovered during battle.

Sound good?


Putting this on hold a minute.

That is an ungodly amount of damage for a major attack. You'd have to increase the mana cost by a lot, because that's still pretty game breaking.

As in, it was prematurely detonated? Yes, it would hit everything. All the interception platforms, the Pluto SLAM and both the characters. Though it would require a lot of Bravery seeing as it's rather hard to detonate a nuke by shooting it.

Lohengrin braces himself on the missile and points his revolver at the warhead. "Null, you might want to set up some shields, if you can. This could get a little bumpy." The German then shoots the fucking warhead.
