SAM looks at the man, she looks at what he's trying to do, she notices the sharp whistling from above. Sigh. Well, she honestly tried to be friendly...well she sorta tried but not really. SAM gets up, dusts her goo off and gets ready to leave."I see I'm not welcome here, oh well...didyouknowtheoddsofanavaragepersonbeingcrushedbyagiantobjectare35.12%?crazyrightseeyai'mofftoeatyourfriendsmaybe" she quickly speaks as she bolts through the door.

SAM will get out the bar, run behind the EdPC and watch as the glider delivers justice upon the rude bartender.

Warn the patrons inside the bar about the doomball so they can evacuate. Even if it doesn't seem on a direct collision course, it's a good cover for should that drone crash into the bar (assuming EdPC informs us of what's about to happen).

Try to see where the doomball is heading and make sure to get out of the way. Or, if it seems to be tracking someone/something, determine what it is. Either way stay out of its path.

If nobody else manages to stop the cargo drone, use the pulse laser to shoot it down (try to hit the drone and not the cargo though).

Tell the guide I'll take a moment to discuss with my teammates before deciding.

Good news: We have a corporate cargo container incoming near the bar. Should be filled with goodies
Bad news: It's currently on a course to land right on top of the bar. I'm going to try and readjust it to crash somewhere further away, but I'm not sure there's time for a course correction.

Try to make a last second course correction on the drone so that the container crashes somewhere that doesn't currently have a bunch of people. Like the middle of the road or a patch of grass.

”Perfect! I propose we head there with swiftness - I sense that my fellow OMNICORP employees are not long from engaging in our uniquely destructive brand of competence, so we’d best be out of the potential blast radius.”

To the Bizzare! Avoid the gravity ball and the unintentional cargo bomb as best we can. If we manage to get there without running afoul of something or other, scan for more receptive people. There’s power in numbers, after all!

I'd imagine this hardsuit can read and transmit radio signals?  If it'd be a tech roll, try to eavesdrop on their communications, see if anything interesting can be discovered.  Otherwise, start heading back to the rest of the team.

Burt scratches his head and looks at the map. Hmmm. Well there's a dentistry place up the road a bit. It might have drugs...very expired drugs but drugs.

Wilfred listens into the conversations happening over the radio. Or rather he tries to. Either they're scanning across multiple channels as some sort of scrambling attempt or something is messing with his receiver. He only catches snippets of the conversation as the signal wavers about. Something about the Smiles moving West.

Ask the bartender if I can have a free drink in return Al offers to do all the dishes.
The bartender ignores [404: SHEET MISSING] and runs outside.  The mystery man uses this opportunity to carefully reach behind the bar and grab a bottle before nonchalantly wandering out the back.

"RELIGION HOOOOO!"

EEEDD and CharliED both charge off into the forest to the north, heading for the Bizarre. They don't even take the road or any path, they just sprint straight through the trees. They come out a few moments later in the overgrown field that was once the golf course. They do not get any further this turn. That Glider is moving fast, after all.

Bored. Hitchhike east.

Anya looks at the Anomaly Sensor pointing east, then up at the Doomsphere heading roughly towards the bar
"Hmm, I think I figured out what it's pointing at."
given the Doomsphere is moving along the road, Anya will pocket the detector and head over to the golf course out back
Spoiler: character sheet (click to show/hide)
Anya, with Bob riding piggy back and grumbling happily, sprints off behind the bar and out into the golf course. They make it a good 100 or so feet into the overgrown field before Bob squirms out of her grasp and makes a mad dash into an algae coated water hazard.  Anya dives into a sandpit, just in case.

SAM looks at the man, she looks at what he's trying to do, she notices the sharp whistling from above. Sigh. Well, she honestly tried to be friendly...well she sorta tried but not really.

Sam and Edward run back and into the APC, hunkering down just in case the sky should fall and/or people should suddenly become very angry for reasons completely beyond their control.

Even before Yagyu's announcement many patrons of the bar are spilling out, Doomsensors pointed towards the slowly advancing ball of light. After his announcement everyone in the bar is outside, either standing on the porch and watching or already moving quickly to the side. The ball makes it about halfway to the bar, diverting maybe two or three feet off the street and into an overgrown front yard as it approaches. It catches the limbs of a fallen tree and flings them off at an angle, through  the wall of another building with a crunch and burst of plaster dust.  This gets people moving and the prospectors scatter to find cover behind trees or cars.

And then the glider arrives. Its moving at subsonic speeds, though only just barely, and by the time it passes over the bar its already breaking apart as the scuttling explosives slice its metal skeleton into neat sections. The strange white biofabric of the single massive wing is going up like flash powder. The detonating comet of metal frame and fire streaks overhead and off into the distance, coming down somewhere far to the east in a smear of flame. The cargo container dropped long before the glider was overhead, riding the momentum on a long arc towards its final destination.

About a half mile away Burt looks up from his map and watches as the glider burns up. His attention is ripped away from the burning mass as something smashes down heavily onto one of the houses in a Cul-De-Sac down the road to the south.

Head over to where the cargo should be based on the trajectory of decent. If I get there, look around to see who else might be interested.

"If there's nothing else you want to do, I suggest we head towards the Bizarre."

Scan the area with my drones, search for where the cargo landed. If found, relay location to team.
See if there are any people willing to pay us in exchange for a ride out of the anomaly's way and to the Bizarre.
If we can make money as an armored taxi, why not?
Make sure our ride is out of the way of the anomaly. Preferably move it towards the fallen container so that those looting can get back in quickly. If that's not possible, then move it towards the Bizarre instead.
