Hold my turn until the driver goes.  If we stop, aim and shoot at Rocket Ork.  If we keep moving, double-aim.

[hector13]

If I can do both, maintain prescience with a half turn and unjam my lascarbine with the other half turn.

Otherwise, unjam the lascarbine.

Otherwise, unjam the lascarbine.

I can unjam it for you if you'd rather shoot something.

[hector13]

((There’s nothing in range.))

[Stirk]

Hold my turn until the driver goes.  If we stop, aim and shoot at Rocket Ork.  If we keep moving, double-aim.

Delay only gets you a half action, but delay acknowledged.

If I can do both, maintain prescience with a half turn and unjam my lascarbine with the other half turn.

Otherwise, unjam the lascarbine.

Clearing a jam is a Full Action, so you can't.

Your Lascarbine continues refusing to work. You can't seem to figure out why. Alrin looks at it from over your shoulder but only offers the advice "Perhaps the machine spirit knows you are cursed?"

Over the comms, a more helpful voice pipes up "Shot".

The track remains unexploded, let alone the train. There are plenty of shells flying on this battlefield but if you where to hazard a guess, the shot you called was the one that just landed in the jungle a good two hundred meters away from your intended target.

So far, ramming is the only thing that has worked. Accordingly, Gunnar floors it toward the rocket ork.

So far, ramming is the only thing that has worked. Accordingly, Gunnar floors it toward the rocket ork.

The Chimera jumps forward thirsty for Ork blood! At the usual pace since Gunnar just barely failed the floor it test, but one must assume that the Machine Spirit is enjoying its newfound love of Ork crushing.

Since we're moving the Bolter aim's its sights instead of shooting.

Back in the trenches the loader finishes helping the Flamer PDF get his backpack on. He kisses a relic of some local saint that is around his neck and rushes toward the tracks hoping to accomplish something before he gets messily destroyed.

((Just for the record now that the Engine is technically in range I think a big reason why there are penalties with targeting for driving is that vehicles have a big size bonus to getting hit. You and each of the train cars have a +30 to getting hit because of your size. So unlike the Orks, you have a really good chance to hit even if you are both moving.))

((Distances are now theoretically correct))

Whose turn is it?

[Stirk]

Whose turn is it?

Richie->Bahzil->Gunnar->Allies->Eltiazh->Orks

[Egan_BW]

Meh. Reload.

[Stirk]

Meh. Reload.

Your brother hands you a new belt of ammunition from below, which you expertly place into the heavy stubber and reload just as you did in training. You're now ready to keep shooting.

Coincidentally so is the Rocket Ork. Something between the innate inaccuracy of the weapon and the innate inaccuracy of the Ork means it once again crashes far behind you against the trench line. He reloads, his ammunition likely running thin.

More shooting comes from the train. While it is no more accurate individually than the closer Ork's rocket the enthusiastic volume of fire likely means its large guns are hitting something or someone on your side. Fortunately enough that someone and something isn't you. Fortunately for you at least. It continues flying down the tracks shooting up sparks all the while.

Which may very well change soon. The train is now in comfortable shooting range and you're really close.

Shoot the Kannon Kar.  With the multilas, if it's available, with the Heavy Bolter if not.  (I think I also have two aims built up.)

[Stirk]

Shoot the Kannon Kar.  With the multilas, if it's available, with the Heavy Bolter if not.  (I think I also have two aims built up.)

You have one aim saved up (Delay takes a full action but only gets you a half action). Multilas is open but if you move to it you lose your aim. Continue?

[Devastator]

Nah, just use the bolter and the second aim.  I'll move over next turn, if it's still open.

[Stirk]

Nah, just use the bolter and the second aim.  I'll move over next turn, if it's still open.

You carefully aim the heavy bolter toward the most dangerous looking car and let your gun go to work. You see two explosions as your bolts spark through the crude armor, detonating somewhere inside the main portion of the train car. Moments later thick black smoke begins pouring from the newly made holes and joining that of the engine in the sky. This is likely your handywork - though with Ork machines it an be difficult to tell.
