Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:20):
Mister Turbo, I got some options. See this is what
I was expecting when Zoo failed to fucking roll with
some see you know, but see you. Failure and moderate
success are two different things. But regardless, I would have
just expected them to be like pick three and they're
all awful. So you make too much noise in this case,
So you advance a relative mission clock. That's bad. Yep,

(00:43):
you take harm as established in the fiction. An ally
as established in the fiction. Something of value breaks.

Speaker 2 (00:52):
Hello, I think clocks because we're almost.

Speaker 3 (00:56):
On our way out.

What's what's your your arm? Clock? Vinced two? You're at eighteen.

Speaker 2 (03:01):
Three, but I took one off because dermal plating three
Wait no, wait, I'm at twenty one.

Speaker 1 (03:06):
Actually, never mind, I misread that. Yeah, go ahead, yeah
what dermal plating? Use the harm roll less bad? Yep,
harm rolls minus three. So it was supposed to be
plus six. Oh that was supposed to be zero technically,
he regardless, do you get hurt or does renbray ice

(03:27):
pick prescotts.

What's the worst that could douce five damage and kill me?
Do you have armor? Oh fucking maybe I've got Yoh?

Speaker 4 (03:44):
Hell yeah, all right, I can subtract one when using
the harm roll.

Speaker 1 (03:47):
Okay, yeah, so roll arm minus one. You take three
armed assault rifles man three arm alright, yeah, his gun's
just three armed two. Okay, Now you have to choose
one of these, my friend. But these are the good ones, right,
these are the less bad ones. Let's not win some

(04:07):
words here. You lose your footing, you lose your grip
on whatever you're holding, You lose track of someone or
something you're attending to. Somebody gets to drop it.

Speaker 4 (04:17):
He is to choose one.

Speaker 1 (04:18):
I think, yes, there was two options. He chose to
get himself hurt and to advance the clock. Yes, so
he chose harm or he could have had something of
value break or one of you get hurt. Right now
we're doing the role for him. Yeah, and now we
were doing the role of him getting hurt.

Speaker 3 (04:33):
It's a marginal failure. I guess.

Speaker 4 (04:35):
I guess I'll lose track of something I'm attending.

Speaker 1 (04:37):
I didn't take any Yeah, this is what a gunfight
looks like in the system. Exactly. You pop up, bang, bang,
you hit somebody in the chest head. One of the
four is out and down for the counts. As Dudley
from Third Strike would say. However, they retaliate. You take
a shot to the calibone. Ren Bray, is now your
