Turn 4After finally ending up in combat, I've decided to change the combat system so that damage is determined by the difference between the attack and dodge rolls, along with the weapon used.
Convert people to ISLAM!
[1-1=0] You charge into the colony bar, and yell out "ISLAM IS THE ONLY WAY TO LIVE YOUR LIFE! ALL OTHER RELIGIONS ARE FALSE AND YOU WILL GO TO JAHANNAM! HELL!" Unfortunately, you seem to have interrupted the weekly meeting of the most extreme local denomination of Crystal Dragon Jesusians (not to be confused with Crystal Dragon Christians, or any other sort of Christians). The three men stand up, obviously drunk. One grabs an empty bottle, one grabs a stool, and the third just charges at you. [5-1=4] vs [4]: Due to your dodging and his drunkenness, he just barely misses.
go guard the life support.
[8] You locate the life support easily, even without knowledge of the layout of the colony. It already has several nice defensive systems up. You wait for an attack.
Hack into a super secret government file on the mercenary group.
[5+1-2=4] Being a top-secret government file, you find it very hard to access the top-secret government file on the Blades. In fact, you get traced, and are forcibly disconnected before you can start viewing the file. Which, of course, can't be a good sign.
SHAKE SOMEONE BY THE LAPELS FOR INFO! "F*CK FILING CABINETS!"
[3] You charge around the colony, yelling angrily about filing cabinets, and grab some random worker. A worker who doesn't appear to know anything about filing cabinets or the Blades, to be exact.
Shoot file cabinet in rage
You angrily shoot wildly at the filing cabinet, utterly destroying it and everything inside it. Nobody really needs information, anyway...
Give people one last chance to clear the area before forcefully ejecting them.
[5] You intimidate everyone with your laser pistol, and they leave the area. To be exact, most of them run away screaming, but hey, it worked.
