Day 3.

This is the day. The first of the drivers bites the dust, in a glorious fireball. Who will it be?

Spoiler: Marty (click to show/hide)

1: GROUPIE DRIVE: 1(-1/skill) = 0 Cindy said " Watch this!" as she finished off a fifth of whiskey.  She puts the pedal to the floor and your truck careens off the road. She says "This is a short cut, trust me!" as the truck crashes into a orange tree. She was trying to drive through an orchard... but instead she just hit a bunch of trees. Your truck takes 5 damage and is pretty much destroyed. Most of your cargo has leaked out. Hey , it's sewage. It's fertilizer, right?  (+1 score)
2: GROUPIE DRIVE(pt 2.) 5(-1/skill=4 The groupie takes you to the nearest town.  She's already called her friends together at a local Elementary School Gym for you to rock out an air guitar solo.
3: ROCK OUT(MULLET) FOR FANS  6(+2/skill)=8 The air is thick and humid, and the sweat pours down your mullet.You're going to rock this gymnasium with your air guitar and unintelligible lyrics with a cassette-deck accompaniment. The lights come on , and you wail on the air guitar like you never have before. By the time the song has ended, all 13 people in the gymnasium have their lighters up in the air! After the concert you have another 2 groupies join you. The truck is getting a little bit crowded.  (+1 score for ROCKING)
4: GROUPIE REPAIR : 6,1,6,2 You tell your groupies to "Go fix the damn truck!" While Cindy is still too drunk to fix anything, the rest managed to prevent all the "cargo" from leaking out onto the ground. Your truck will begin next round with 1 health.

1:BUILD LASER : 5 Somehow you find a truck carrying an industrial metal cutting laser. Since you don't have a lot of technical ability, it's going to take you some extra parts and some work to get it to a weapon form.
2:BUY PARTS : 5 You spend the remainder of your cash at the local "Electronics Hut". You somehow ended up with a mobile phone, too. And a 2 year contract. Shit.  (-2 cash)
3:ASSEMBLE LASER 5 Four rolls of duct tape, and you've got a nice stable mount for your truck. You've also made a portable power supply out of it with a dozen 6V batteries. Nice work

1: ATTEMPT TO RECOVER FROM 3RD DEGREE BURNS : 6 You wake up. Using your technical knowledge, you pump yourself full of painkiller and disconnect all the IVs from you arms. You've also snatched a bunch of CONTROLLED SUBSTANCES. Because you need them, okay? Geez. You're now addicted to them. (+1 score, tough as nails)
2: CONVINCE DOCTORS YOUR VISIT IS FREE: 2 "Where do you think you are, you asshole? This is Freakin' America. Yer insurance ain't gonna pay, we're going to have to take your truck! And your house! "
3: ESCAPE HOSPITAL  1 You have no choice. You have to escape, they are going to take you truck. Nobody takes a man's truck. You start running for the exit, and are tackled by a police officer who is just walking in the door . "You're the one that blew up that place! I was just here to talk to you..."
4:ESCAPE POLICE 1(-1/turns) = 0 You attempt to RESIST ARREST. You shove the officer and he hits you with a club for 2 damage. By the time you know what is happening, you're in a police cruiser and are handcuffed. You're going to jail.

1: ARRANGE LOAN. 1(-1/alien)=0 You go to a "Payday loan" place because it is revered for it's "easy credit". You find the people there to be... deplorable. They all appear to be obtaining currency for use in expanding their drug usage. This is horrendous. Your leader would not approve of allowing these humans to continue their fetid existence. It's time to test out "The Arc Cannon" (+ 3 score, bit by weakness!)
2: ARC DRUGGIES 3 You turn the dial to "roasted" and zap 3 druggies. They suffer nonfatal but extremely painful burns. They howl in pain as they leave the loan place. The Money-Lender throws meager amounts of currency at you, thinking this is a robbery. You gain 1 cash.
3: ESCAPE 6 This place is no place for a Stephinian. You leave quickly and quietly, and you suspect the human authorities will not care about your attacks on drug addicts. You slip out and head for a more fertile moneylender.

1: ENTER TRUCK - 3 You have an okay position between your truck and the guards, so only a single guard gets a shot at you. Guard rolls a 1. Guard unloads his 9mm in his compatriot as you pass in front of him.
2: RUN OVER GUARDS  4 + 2/skill = 6 You make more guard-pancakes with your front bumper. Your truck is getting awash in blood.
3: STEAL SHUTTLE 1 You run up the stairs to the shuttle. You get into the cockpit... and start flipping levers. After pressing a half dozen buttons, you think you have ignition. You hear a loud crash and the ground shakes. Apparently .. the tank has fallen off and has hit the ground and started rolling.  You hit the ignition button.
4: GRAND FINALE! 3 When you fire the main boosters,  several hundred thousands of pounds of fuel make a spectacular explosion which can be seen for miles.

Get my truck repaired, in a series of comedic events.

[Schilcote]

MWAHAHAHAHAHA! FEAR THE WRATH OF THE MIGHTY STEPHINIAN EMPIRE!
F*** peace! It's time for WAR!

In a calm, perfectly civilly obedient manner, purchase some sort of motor vehicle. Chew some (non sugarfree) chewing gum and spit it onto the street. 'Cos I'm a rebel.

[Xegeth]

For my next turn, I ask to speak to my lawyer, and tell him to sue the fuel depot.

[Hugehead]

WOOT ONLY DAY 3 AND 27 POINTS! I WIN!

[Mullet Master]

Next day (game round) will be Sunday
I'm working for the weekend IRL :/

[Terrahex]

Shoot my lazor at anything that moves as I speed down the highway inevitably heading toward my ultimate destination.

Day 4.

Spoiler: Marty (click to show/hide)

1: GET TRUCK REPAIRED IN A SERIES OF COMEDIC EVENTS 6+2=8 Your truck is going to need some work. ALOT of work. So what better way to attract mechanics than host a comedy tour, in which the cost of admission is "working on a truck". You don't know if it it will work, but hell, why not? You're charismatic as it gets, so you tell your groupies to spread the word, so you drive from town to town. Each town your truck gets better, even though the jokes you tell get worse. By the end of the process, your truck is as good as new.

1. ATTACK THE WORLD.5 Something snaps inside of you. Your laser has a nice, shiny red button in your truck cabin. You've got to push it. There are plenty of targets... why not? Your first target is an unsuspecting pickup truck. BZZT! You deal 5 damage to the pickup truck. (+1 points)
2. CONTINUE RAMPAGING 5 BZZT! BZZT! BZZT! The pickup truck is destroyed. You yell "YEEHAW!" and continue driving down the road. (+1 points, destruction!)
3. ZAP SOMETHING ELSE.3 You acquire another target... A compact car that sounds like a beehive going down the road. What stupid idiots ! They need a real vehicle, something with 12 cylinders, 43,000lbs cargo capacity, and a laser gun. You take a shot and the laser beam slices the front bumper off the car.

You've been handcuffed and you're now in the police station.

1: SUE FUEL DEPOT: 1 You're given your one phone call, so think it would be prudent to call your lawyer. However, the pain pills are really affecting you. You call the local pizza delivery place and order a pizza. Shit.  You don't think you're going to get home before it gets there. You're roughly taken to your cell.

1. ACQUIRE MOTOR VEHICLE 3 You go to "CRAZY LARRY'S REALLY GOOD CARS INC" and acquire a human vehicle in poor condition. You believe it to be of antique status, and of the color iron oxide. He sells it to you under the condition "You get that piece of shit off the lot right now, and it's yours for a hundred" Apparently this vehicle is titled "Piece of shit" and has problems with all major subsystems. It's going to take some work to fix. You hand him your last remaining currency and assess the vehicle.
2. REPAIR "PIECE OF SHIT" 6+2=8 Human vehicles are primitive and trivial to work on. You take out your multifunction repair tool and get to work. Using parts found in the "CRAZY LARRY'S REALLY GOOD CARS INC" dumpster, you start to reassemble the vehicle. You find a large engine from a human-child transport, a transmission from a large truck, and a tank of flammable material that is likely human airplane fuel. You have acquired 8 more wheel and tire assemblies to handle traction. After finishing your construction , you've deemed this the "fastest human vehicle". It's fast. REALLY FAST. (+1 score)

Drive to my destination.

[Schilcote]

Drive the PIECE OF SHIT to a depot. Fill it with something that all civilizations need transported. Sand, for example.

EDIT:

But before I do that, hook a larger Arc Cannon up to the craft's power system. Conceal it under the front panelwork, extending to it's full zappity glory at the press of a hidden button disguised as a fuse under the steering wheel.

[Xegeth]

What happened to my bonus for only taking one action?

[Mullet Master]

You are correct Xegeth.
I've created a little too cumbersome system,  as some actions require expansion and sometimes I just wait for additional input from characters. When I update Day 4 I will change the outcome with bonus reflected.

[Xegeth]

Should I post my actions now, or wait until day 4 is modified?

[Mullet Master]

Xegeth, if you take the +2 that will be the only action you are allowed and you'll have to wait for Day 5. For the rest of the group, I'm going to put their actions in Day 5.
