Wait, James has 0 dex and he's supposed to be a melee fighter?

Powder, have you never played any games where lack of dex=never hitting?



As for luck, Luck should be everywhere. It should be rolled when putting your shoes on. It should be rolled when going to the bathroom (failure results in having your head fall into the toilet). It should be rolled when opening a door (failure results in a bloody nose). It should be rolled when walking down a stairs (do I need to explain failure?).

...More seriously, I have the opinion that luck should be rolled whenever there's the potential for absolute disaster or absolute awesomeness. Or when something being done is using a not invented yet and won't be invented skill. Or when you just want to roll instead of make up a result for something.

Tarran has the "Tarran Bug", a bug which causes the affected character to repeatedly hit teammates while dual-wielding instead of whatever the hell he is shooting at.

And that underline is why this. Specifically the 'defeat you' part. :P Also in seriousness, I agree with the part I bolded. Maybe the third sentence as well, I'm a little iffy on it unless you just mean sort of like the second example I gave.

His high strength will make him a killer heavy gunner when I get around to giving you machine guns though...

If he survives that long.

Terrance: Go East young man, that's what you've been told...
Dee-Dee: Be Ash's eyes.
Fay: Attempt to find a light.
Taricazius: Rifle through cabinet
Jamie: ... ... ... What are you actually trying to do? You want to walk back out into the hall?

That about right guys?

(Except for powder who I am honestly confused on.)

then you may become known as the Fist hammer when you may hit.

Particularly once he gets his psi on.

Ten virtual totally unreal bucks on serious thinking of calling me Drainegan before he reads this post.

Because he mentioned remembering it fifty pages ago, and I'm totally certain that "Draggy Boy" will trigger the memory.

Well, you lost, because for some reason I read this page from the bottom up when I clicked on it. :P Anyway, I think Powder is taking the lamp over to Dom and Ashley, but I'm not 100% sure on that.

Can we just run the turn without Powder responding? I think it's pretty clear that he wants to go to Harry and Jordan.

Just roll a d6 and if it's odd have him go to Ash and Dom and if it's even go to Harry and Jordan. :P I too would enjoy a turn.
