Guess I don't have an excuse, this game is quick to update.
1 Tile = 5 metersMoves entirely along a road get +5m distance.
Directional cover works as it did in the first round
A line next to the edge of a hexagon is a door. Doors open automatically, but you can't run through two doors in the same turn--too fast.
Each hex applies a unique effect to combat inside of it:
Hex #1 (Blue) : Aqua zone--kinetic attacks are less effective (5+ to Hit/Wound). Roll for the # of turns you can hold your breath for when you enter.
Hex #2 (Orange) : The floor is lava. Take 2STR damage per turn, unless you have fire resistance (like a dragon)
Hex #3 (Limegreen): Heal Zone. Heal a random wound at the end of each turn.
Hex #4 (Fuschia) : Glue zone. Roll 2DEX vs your AGI each turn. If you fail you are immobilized for one turn.
Hex #5 (Skyblue) : Hall of Mirrors. Missed ranged attacks will rebound until they hit a random person inside. You roll AGI each time.
Hex #6 (Yellow) : Nuclear Furnace. 3STR damage per turn if you pass through here, but your non-kinetic attacks are Energized (+1 STR per turn).
Hex #7 (Grey) : Monochrome Field. You become black and white when you enter, and become immune to the effects of other hexes.
Hex #8 (Red) : Blood spilled inside makes you more powerful, giving you bonus Sanguine Dice to reroll in a future attack.
All hexes are Indoors, meaning you can't shoot to explode anything inside of it from outside/vice versa without an armor-piercing weapon like a LAW.
Turn 8C[76+5]
Nameless Biovore fires a spore mine! (3v1=0 Hits) Sicreih dodges it, and it crawls around aimlessly.
[65+15]
Sicreih decides to kill Olo before he can kill himself... Olo makes no attempt to dodge and--(3v0=1 Hit, 4+1vs2=[6]) he hacks off Olo's weapon arm before he can kill himself!
[67+5]
Fellorath charges past an angry spore mine (which promptly detonates--4vs6=Fellorath promptly blocks it with her shield), and then (4vs0 = 2 Hits, 5+2vs2=[5]) stabs the biovore in the... [5] chest. It digs into the chitinous plating, but the creature is already spewing gallons of blood. The greature's breathing system has been horribly mangled by the attempt (-2 DEX).
[51+20]
The Dread Pirate Roberts [2+3-1] patches himself up.
[40+10]
Olo picks up the dagger in his other arm, and then proceeds to pierce his own throat... (3vs0=1 Hit, 3+1vs1!=[5][3]) It ends him.
(First time TACtics has been used this whole game! On a... suicide attempt.)
[27+10]
Argus Auraflight flies, and breaths fireballs! From above! The flame breath attack roasts Olo's corpse to a crisp, and while Sicreih avoids the brunt of the blaze, he too undergoes roasting: (4vs3=[5][5]) Mmm, roasted alien [3] leg and [2] wing.
BleedingOlo has died. RIP.
Fellorath is safe (1 Bleed vs 2VIT--armor does not apply to bleed)
Sicreih is safe (2 Bleed vs 3VIT) (No passive heal this turn, third time in a row.)
Biovore is now faint! It's about to die. (7 Bleed vs 2 VIT)
