Dang it, I was sure I had posted it. I guess not.

Zoom to F4, shoot Yokan on G4

[OceanSoul]

Spoiler: Acce (click to show/hide)

Move 2, and range attack Yohan on the space ahead of me.

[Starver]

Spoiler: Wheelie (click to show/hide)

Can I question the mathematics behind the "literally 1% chance" that Ami took, please?  At either 5 or (boosted?) 6 speed, I can't get chance of success lower than 6.4% (for an attempt to blast through three sharp corners), now that I'm calculating it, and appears to have failed at the second one, anyway (thus already failed to 'roll below' 16%, in a funny intermediate composite way), so...  Not that I'm unhappy, but...

And, just to be safe, I thus shall move a mere 2 to C4, whilst (pointlessly) jeering at my foe. But not so much that I fall off myself, of course.

(Spoiler, not quote.  Must remember next time...  )

Move to G2

[RoseHeart]

1% as in she got the minimum she needed to succeed. She succeeded as little as possible.

[Starver]

So, she didn't crash. (But who did?)

Never mind, I'm probably misreading your commentary. Doesn't appear to affect me directly, so I'll still do as I said I'd do.

[RoseHeart]

She barely(the most extreme def of the word) succeeded the 1ST corner. And crashed the second.

COURSE SHORTENED!

DOC THUNDERS FORWARD.

AMI IS BACK ON THE ROAD, AS WHEELIE APPROACHES SHE ANTICIPATES A SHOT, BUT-

WHEELIE FALLS IN RIGHT BESIDE HER, AND NO FURTHER. HE... SEEMS TO BE JEERING AT HIS FOE.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

(yes this did happen)

ACCE LOOKS BACK, AND READIES TO CUT OFF YOKAN'S PASS WITH GUNFIRE.

YOKAN SEEMS TO TAKE THIS AS A SIGN HE'LL SLOW, AND TRIES TO MANEUVER A RAM. YET THEY KEEP THE SAME SPEED AND NEITHER CAN LAND THE HIT DESIRED. SHOTS FROM DOC ALSO GO FAR.

You CAN collect multiple charges of your special.

Same Space Shots
If you both are starting from the same space, if the target moves more spaces than you, even if you guess wrong you hit.

Charge through to C3, Fire on Doc at E4

[Starver]

Argh! Spacial distortions and/or plate tectonics!  My own scribbled-on map (inscribed with turn-wise notations) is now a bit obsolete.

Never mind.

Spoiler: Wheelie (click to show/hide)

I shall move just the 2 spaces to B3, by the new coordinates. I don't need repairs (assume it's the same process as the charging points?) but Ami probably will and (with the same-spot-starting rules on shots) I don't want to present an easier target than I need to, just yet.  It does mean that if she does keep pace with me, the next turn will be another opportunity for out-guessing each another.

However I also won't exploit this same guess insofar as a ram attempt. Instead I'll aim ahead on the (unnecessarily exact) guess that a more reckless Ami might be landing on A2, instead and thus penalise any such audacity with a tracking-shot to add injury to insult (to injury).


While we're playing around, I fully expect some of the others to get within firing range but (if I'm not starting to be predictable in my unpredictability) I think I'll be safe enough.

[RoseHeart]

You should expect random bubble wrap when any superpower is fundamental element.

Spacial distortions and/or plate tectonics!

I like how your brain works.

Added a blank one to OP for ya.

Spoiler: Doc (click to show/hide)

Move to D5, use my special on Yokan (it works like ramming, right?)

[OceanSoul]

Spoiler: Acce (click to show/hide)

Move 3, no attack. Also, I feel like there should be penalties for making a ranged attack and missing.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I can't think of a reasonable penalty just for MISSING an attack. Maybe all ranged attacks, regardless of hitting or not, make handling turns harder, due to recoil of shot / effort split between maneuvering and attacking / attention diverted from road?
