That move would require sidestepping through cover, which even being passable, does not allow sidestepping through it.

Y'all are awfully confident that you'll kill that sectoid in full cover this turn.

HMR stands for Hazardous Materials Requisition, not Horrible Massive Ruination, though I can understand how one could get confused.

And to think that you were doing somewhat good until now...

Also Twinwolf you're one MOV short of reaching I17.

I'm waiting on Crazy to decide what he wants to do before Julio moves (otherwise known as "is he taking that cover spot?)  Some overwatch may keep that sectoid penned down, but since we have people standing in the open taking low percentage pot shots, it doesn't really need to move.

Would I be in cover @J20
Spoiler: diagram (click to show/hide)
Natually I mean from the sectoid, not the drone.

If so (indeed, either way) Julio should take the hard cover @J17, since he has the better gun.

No.  Cover doesn't work like that.  That piece of hard cover provides cover for Pierce only; even the tile one back isn't in cover.  It's also cover from anywhere on ranks A-D, and E unless the E tile has cover from the south; then the unit could step out and flank F20.  Notably, F20 and E19 flank each other.  (The drone can't take cover anyway because it's a mechanized unit; that said, as a flyer it has 30 free defense.)


In other words, you have to be touching the cover to benefit from it.

Toaster is right.

Twinwolf!Adriana still has to change her move because to reach I17 she needs 14 MOV and her dash has 13 MOV.

a1s!Crazy also has to fix mobe, can't sidestep from E13 to D13 but can move to D13 directly.

I also added Xavier to the roster. Is he gonna be a psi soldier? :v

That would bring me out of cover. I might charge a guaranteed kill, but I'm not exposing myself to one for a maybe.

Also, can you put player's names near their character's int the Units spoiler?
(I'm only 95% sure Julio Agalia still has a turn, and I'm too lazy to check)

That would be a little too much info crammed in the spoiler, but if you want to know who has a turn left it's easy:

Bolded name means two actions left.
Name in italics means one action left.
Normal name means already acted all that it could.

So Julio is the last to move this turn.

No, you understood me correctly- I meant whose post to read for details.

Oh, right. I guess I do know if he has actions (it was in the second post's spoiler). I would still like to know who's who.

How's that look?

Uglier to me, but having player names is nice.

Uglier because of the font? I used courier font because it seems like it's the only monospaced font there. I'm gonna use it for base stuff for easier readability.
