 ((Oh, I meant to ask earlier - what does overwatch do?))

[piecewise]

((Ah, that explains it, I forgot about your high cover.))
As the chainsaw slices me in half, ask "ARE YOU COMING ONTO ME?"

I read that as "INTO" at first and it raised an eyebrow.

Ouchies.

(Note to self, just say 'overwatch.'  I woulda covered both doors just as well as the north door.  Still thought I'd be fine being in the corner, everything was to my southeast.  And still too neo-xcom for me.)

Technically when you cover an area I give you a bonus to-hit vs just if you just overwatch.

((Oh, I meant to ask earlier - what does overwatch do?))

It means that if an enemy comes into your line of sight, you'll shoot it.

((I forgot that I had to reload.  Apologies, fixed the issue.))

Can I cover-move far enough back that a Glimmer would still be able to stun all four foes, but Scab 3 would get hit by overwatch fire from MJ before he attacks me?  If so, move there and then Glimmer.  Otherwise, full move as far from the door as I can, and either shoot the melee dude I can see, or overwatch if I can't see either.

You move 3 spaces to the west and take cover behind the fridge before casting glimmer. [15/12] You hold your glimmer card up but nothing happens. Shit. The card doesn't get used up though.

Scab 1 leans out and fires his shotgun at Sy. [13/13][10/16] Sy ducks back as pellets spray across the room and embed themselves in the fridge.

Ah.

Well, didn't think that was a thing, just wanted to get a shot off.

((Well, I'm a little pissed that those enemies came from a direction I couldn't have seen coming, and shot me before I could do anything.))

((And that is why you have multiple lives))

Don't worry, such events are not common. It was more just a test to see how something like that would play out. Poorly, as it turns out.  The first enemies were fodder, second ones were fairly powerful and they came at you when you least suspected it. Different sides of the spectrum. Testing. Testing.

(I assume you've kept track of your bloodbag HP regen for each turn correct? Admittedly its not been many turns, but just asking)
Hmm Clever spell use. Lets hope you succeed. 11 means you have about a 50/50 chance. [9/11]
You hold your card up and metallic chrome creeps across it from your fingertips and encases the entire card. The card bursts into a fine silvery powder and entire room shakes as a concrete wall bursts from the far wall in the other room and careens past the doorway like an out of control subway train. It hits the opposite wall with a jarring thud and stops. The wall stretches from floor to ceiling and completely blocks the doorway. On the bottom edge of it, you can see the bloody paste that used to be two of the black scabs, as well as your dead teammates.

And because you guys are effectively sealed in this room now, you're also effectively out of danger, and thus your teammates respawn in the staircase.

Well, MJ saved our asses.  Good thing he has a path spell too.

Pull the fridge away from the wall.  If there's people behind it, shoot them.  If not, reload gun.

You shove the Fridge out of the way, find Sy hiding behind it, and shoot him.

You're gonna poke through a 3 foot thick concrete wall with a spear? Did you become the fucking hulk at some point and I'm not aware of it?

Nah, he finds himself hiding back there and shoots himself~
