Take the ring.

"You're a really bad liar, you know that?"

"Interesting."

Grab Excelsior or whatever his name is (Excelsis?) by the neck with mechanical arm. Don't choke him--that makes it hard to reply.

"I've been lead here. There's a reason you wanted an amulet. I presume it has something to do with the shrine it unlocked by turning a pool into gold. Tell me, what do you know about the ankh?"

Somehow smith a tank!

[2] Um...nope.

Set fire to Ungngo's noxious secretions. And Ungngo himself, if possible.

[5] Ungngo is on fire. It still flies into the fortress.

Save the stockpiles and turn off the offending pumps.

[3] You grab the booze; that's what's important, right? [6] The pumps are off. The fortress is quickly flooding from the ocean! Crap, the tide's come in!

Zombie Killer shot me in the #@%!king leg. He's a deaaad man.

SLAUGHTER ZOMBIE KILLER THEN DEVOUR HIS CORPSE.

[2] Sadly, you fail.

Respawn.
Steal wizard's powers.

I'll give you a stuffed dragon! [1] You rush into the fortress and find a shark! Trying to steal his powers, you steal his gills! You can no longer breathe air!

Search the ship for weapons

[2] Does this pool cue count?

Deeper

Ignoring the worsening flood, Xantalos [3] digs out a vein of [6] adamantine.

GM TURN:
The wizard gestures! [6] The water shudders and begins to move!
Ungngo [4] rolls in the alcohol stockpile, then dives into the water. Because he was on fire. OHCR-BOOM.
[3,6] Some migrants have arrived. They include a werewolf who attacks all of them, causing them to turn. Nine werewolves are attacking the fortress.

Hold on. Bite deer's neck, or whatever we can.

Anyways, lasers can cause grevious damage to a body with a single shot. In an antimaterial role, it could presumably melt the armor of a vehicle. Obviously, it's not too energy-efficient, but by the time you get FTL you're throwing lots of controlled energy around anyways.

In most cases however, a bullet with the same force won't even leave a body/vehicle to shoot at.

How do you fire a bullet at lightspeed, or so I have no idea what you mean?

Really fast. Nah, but the advantages of laser is speed and accuracy, but where a laser vapourizes what it shoots at, the bullet just deforms, doing more damage for less energy.

I doubt that vaporization can ever be considered LESS damage than anything...and, again, once you get FTL you're probably harnessing the equivalent of modern-day cities to power children's toys.

Force, not speed. A solid projectile can easily put out much more force without having to move at light speed.

Lasers are a lot cheaper to get moving at lightspeed, and it's not the speed that breaks stuff with lasers. It's the heat.
Force is tricky when dealing with light. Light is pretty much massless, so there's no force either. Just heat and such.

Wonder why we brought the scroll with.
Put it somewhere we can find it after we hunt.
Climb a tree.
Drop on an unsuspecting deer!

"Talking is a free action, you know!"

Burn sandthingy. I like glass.

"Mind if I ask where my share is?"
