The guns are controlled by soldiers, hence the reason the guns are slaved to one trigger on each turret.

Medic

Quote
Get away from the crazy knife man!

Jesus Christ! What the hell is this mess?! The medic scrambles back from [Dex 2], tripping once and not making cover.

Use control on a gunner dude

You are assuming direct control. Turning from the fleeing medic you focus your will on one of the independents. [Control 3,4+1,1  Vs will 5,3,5 ] (-30 stamina) The Independent has a strong will, and you underestimate him badly. [Luck roll 4] The psychic backlash has you reeling and dizzy, but you don't think you're harmed. (-1 to all rolls for 2 turns)

Your stamina has fallen below 50%, you are fatigued. (bonus rolls are halved.)

---

Ivan

Quote
Keep firing!

Ivan isn't about to let these bastards up until they've paid for Hex and Tierra in blood. [Quickshot 1] [Luck roll 3] The power cell in his Sleipner spits a spark and makes an electrical hiss. Growling in frustration Ivan changes out the cell.

---

Tarran Smith

Press the button Transmitter like no tomorrow.

"ShitShitShitShitShitShitShit..."


You may not have technically disabled the turrets, but you think you've got the turret crew occupied fairly frickin' well. You press the transmitter. A lot. Hard. It might not have been the recommended two quick signals but you're pretty sure they'll get the point. Now you just have to hope the cavalry can do something to help.

Taric Sizier

Transmit the feelings from the porn mag to the Independants

You have a plan, one of the kind that comes naturally to you. Brilliant, unexpected, and completed unorthodox. Hunkering down so you're a smaller target you manage to grab the magazine out of your pack, you pull out the centerfold and start getting handsy, slamming the sensations from your fingers into the independents with all the force you can muster. [Mind bend roll 5+1, material aid Vs Will rolls 4+1 female, 2, 3, 3+1 female, 3, 4] (-25 Stamina) The effect is devastating, though you didn't quite do what you intended. Instead of transmitting feelings from your fingers directly to the independents, you temporarily made all of them feel like the centerfold print itself. The women aren't as badly affected as the men, -they've been women for years- but the shock is still surprising and throws their balance off. The men on the other hand are completely out of their depth, floundering about and trying to stop Taric's illusory fingers from touching them. Ivan takes it better than most, but he still looks like a dying fish gasping for air.

Ivan -1 to all rolls for 2 turns.
Male independents -1 to all rolls for 2 turns, stunned, must make will roll to avoid being stunned next round as well.
Female independents: -1 to next roll, must make a will save or this will repeat next round.

Dominique Wakeman

"Shit," Dom said, observing the scene before them. She immediately drew the Nova grenade, started the timer, and hurled it at the mass of enemies. "Here's hoping this works..." she muttered, reaching out with her mind to try and ensure the grenade landed dead center between the six independents.

Taric has that porn mag out again, the really isn't the fucking time for that now! Then the independents with the guns trained on your group give a collective gasp and begin floundering in their own bodies. Okay, you have no clue what that guy just did and you're pretty sure you don't want to know, it'll give you a hell of an advantage with your little stunt though. [Telekinetics roll 5] [Dex roll 2+2 kinetics boost] You let fly with the grenade, the tip of fingers clip the oblong shape as you throw. They would have surely knocked it off into the gaping hole beside you if you hadn't already prepared to tweak the odds a little. The adjusted flight of the grenade goes a little left of perfect, and the cryo-field takes over from there. [Stamina rolls 4, 6, 4, 5, 2 4] You are glad Taric took steps to disable them for a bit, because the grenade is somewhat less than expected. A few of them seem to suffer from the cold, but only the one closest to the grenade suffers real harm.

2 Indepedents are now barely hurt.
1 is moderately wounded and physically numb (-1 to rolls until heat returns.) (but still being fed sensation by Taric... interesting.)
Ivan is barely hurt.

Independent group

Quote
WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?! STOP TOUCHING ME!

Most of the independent group is crippled by Taric's mental assault, but the women are still able to keep firing, mostly. [Dex roll 2-1] The one with chimera though fumbles her fresh clip when reloading, not being able to tell where her fingers actually are makes it a very difficult task. [Quickshot roll, 4-1] The other manages to aim despite the difficulties her mind is having, striking out at Dom. [Dom armor roll 1 (bonus negated)] One of the gauss slugs finds a join in her armor, where protection had to be foregone in order for the user to move. (Dom -16 health.)

Praetor Morgan and the Unchained War Dogs

From below you there is a massive out pouring of psychic energy and floor trembles slightly as a noise like a giant hitting the worlds largest cinder block fills the air. Praetor Morgan seems to have taken your call, it also seems that he found knocking down most of the dividing wall instead of using the door necessary. Gunfire and the lightning crackle of lasers erupt from beneath you in sporadic bursts, waxing and waning with the seconds.

Porn. If any army could weaponize it, they'd be unstoppable.

And further use of perverted Psionics will only happen in recreation or to Brown jumpsuits.

Also wondering what deviations Blue and red stand for.

Blanket "Self-Pleasuring" on Independants  ;D

Dude, I'm sorry and all but there is no way in hell that was going to happen.

Making a bunch of guys think they're the naked centerfold girl and getting touched in a bad way, yes.

Room full of spontaneously wanking marines, no.

I say the only thing Taricus should ever use from now on in this game is that porn mag.

As far as it goes it's a good tool for stunning male human adversaries who are unprepared for a psychic assault, after that the effectiveness falls of a cliff. A mind bar could stop it cold, it doesn't work as well on women, and it won't work at all on something that doesn't have a Homo Sapien Sapiens sex drive.


Also wondering what deviations Blue and red stand for.

Quote from: Nathaniel Hoke
blue is for physical, Red is for mental.

Which was a joke to the woman in red from the matrix.

I've managed to overcome my crippling addiction to Lost Planet 2... temporarily.

Dominique blinked and looked over at Taric. "Uh, what the hell did you do?" she asked, intuiting that whatever had just happened to the enemy party, it was his doing. Well, she might as well take care of his distraction while he was providing one. Drawing the carbine, she sprayed acid at the group; might as well not waste an opportunity to get them all while the getting was good, she felt. Besides, they deserved it after shooting her in the damn shoulder again.

Tarran Smith

Fire my Jormungandr. Fire, fire, fire!

You let loose on the stunned independents, taking advantage of their panic and disorientation. [Quickshot 4, 3, 2] [Ivan, independent armor 3, 4] The assault rifle cuts into the fray, hitting ivan and punching holes in his armor as well as striking -though not wounding unfortunately- another independent.

Ivan is wounded, Tarran's assault rifle is out ammo.

Ivan

Quote
It's not real, you aren't a woman. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD GET OVER YOURSELF BITCH!

Ivan steels his mind, and gets shot by Tarran. Cursing and trying to sort out which parts of his body were not imaginary Ivan fires back. [Quickshot 3-1] The shot goes above Tarran's head, hitting nothing but air.

Trol Grane

Kill Miss medic with my knife

You like this knife, you threw this knife into an officers brain when he was pointing a shotgun at you. This knife is going to kill that medic. Now. [Dex 3] You catch up to where the medic tripped in her haste to flee from you and attack, [Melee 2-1 Vs Dodge 4+1] the medic rolls to the side and kicks out at you. [Melee 3 Vs Precognition 4-1] You feel it coming and step to the side, moving just out of the path of the blow.

Taric Sizier

Keep doing it

You keep the psychic pressure up, [Mind bend 5 Vs will 4,2,4,3,3,3 -1 all] (-25 Stamina) and you manage to reinforce your initial work.

Opponents Psychological trauma will not degrade this turn.
You are fatigued.

Okay, well Taric can go do his thing, you'll stick to what you know works. You level the carbine at the group of independents and spray. [Quickshot 3] You get two of them pretty well, [Independent luck rolls 4,3] one just gets his armor coated the other has a bit of his exposed tissue in it too. Nasty stuff.

Independent's armor is coated in acid.
Independent is covered in acid and hurt.

Nova grenade

Quote
Jump up and explode

Whirring happily at having reached maximum capacity the grenade bounces into the air like a happy puppy. Well, that is with the distinct difference that happy puppies aren't general hazardous to your continued existence. [Luck rolls 2,5,6,4,2,1-1 -1 all] The same poor kneeling fellow who was nearest the grenade and subject to the incredible cold suddenly finds himself decapitated by the blade of fire. Another two are thrown over the edge of the platform by the blast. One manages to hit the deck in time and drag Ivan down with him to escape the blast. The last independent doesn't drop fast enough and gets a heavy burn across shoulders.

3 Independents killed.
1 Wounded

---

Independent Group

Scream, flail, time permitting do something useful.

[will 3] Male independent still stunned. The male of the remaining pair is still completely useless, yelling and grabbing at himself on panic. The woman focuses, trying to shut out the sensation. [Mind bar 3-1] She can't manage to get away from Taric's mental tampering long enough to focus though, and her forming psychic barrier is tatters before it's even ready.

Medic

Quote
Get the knife away from this lunatic!

[Melee 3+1 Vs Precognition 4-1] The medic lunges for Trol's wrist and catches it, twisting sharply [Str roll 4 Vs 3-1] something pops inside with a flash of ht pain and the Knife drops from Trol's hand.
