Well, presumably the purpose of a 'Hit Harder' action is to give a bit of extra damage, nothing more nothing less, is it not?

7457
Not sure I really like it all that much. Perhaps if adding on an extra feature forces you to take an extra drawback on the attack, then I'd consider it.

Gauge-Based Ailments: No, adds too much work to turn writing as in addition to whatever shenanigans you already have, we also have to keep track of the gauges.

Standardized Ailments: We discussed this. Not going to happen, there's just too much potential variation and no logical reason for everything to be standardized.

Merchants: Tentative veto. This may be implemented in a limited scale later on, but as is, I'm not a fan of the idea at all. We'll see about it in future.

Free Feature Slot: Give me an example. This looks interesting but I'm not quite sure what you mean.

((I did adapt. And I raised issue. By smacking him in the head with a sign. Roll with the punches, chill out, and take your slap on the wrist instead of arguing back at it every time because most of the time, your answer is going to be a 'no'.

If I want to let 6AR sequence break, I will let them sequence break. If I don't want to, then go join the others on the plotted line I've made. If I want to railroad you, you're getting railroaded. If I want you to move about, I will let you move about. If you disagree, tough luck. End of discussion. I'm not going to warn you again. I do not need to budge, nor do I feel like budging. I wrote a story to be played in, not derailed.

Have I made myself clear?))

((I'm running the damn plot, I shouldn't HAVE to ask my players to not sequence break. If anything, you should be asking ME to sequence break.))

Bodyguards:
[DC 20]
[25] Yamal's warning seems to have gotten to the journalists gathered. They seem to back off from her, cautious of her. It is as if they're realising that they're messing with a literal shipgirl here.

[DC 20]
[20] Dackly succeeds in hot-wiring a journalist's van! As she climbs in to drive off, however, she hears a loud tearing sound from the back just as she climbs into the steering wheel. As the gorgon wonders why it won't go, the brownstone golem steps in front of the van, holding up a back wheel.

Oh. Oh dear.

The Sloanes stand around, wondering what the fuck to do now.

Imposter:
[1]
Asuka resurfaces near the market. Or rather, she's thrown through a nearby stall, as the imposter, now disguised as a black and white Armored Rider, approaches her calmly. Well, then. People start running away from the impending fight, screaming.

Haruka and anyone who went straight witnesses this madness; those who did were accompanied by Kyoko, who starts flicking her tentacles in annoyance.
"Is that the sucker who tried to squid me?!"

Anyone who went left to the city center gets to witness.....nothing. Well, except a crowd of people in the middle of the rush hour to head back home. However, you do see a purplish slimy humanoid rapidly turn into a longcoat-wearing man and vanish into the crowd.

6AR gets to fly up and hit himself in the head with a shop sign. This is why you don't fly straight up in the middle of the city.

7462
I guess I'm just tired then
Yes, if I am to be perfectly blunt, none of the people who didn't get in aren't being hostile about it. Please do not annoy Twin about it; you knew the risks when you were going to sign up for the game, you were up against other people who deserved as much of a chance as you to get in and Twin basically spent the better part of two days agonising about it to the extent they ended up having to resort to coinflips because having to decide otherwise was impossible.

That goes for anyone else who wants to have a go at Twin.

Thank you.

((So Yamal has to make a Persuasion roll, Dackly has to make an INT roll and Asuka needs to get caught in shit.))

Gunshots. From behind.

The Road Warrior turns and sees the skeleton-thing shooting at him.

On second thought, the stormtroopers could wait. This guy was annoying.

And he had a decent ride.

Probably a better idea to take this one out.

second thought, fuck going after the stormtroopers
TRW: Shoot at Skulduggery, Shoot at Skulduggery
Brother [Biker]: Shoot at Skulduggery

((ok
remind me
what was going on in HERO plot so i can update))

Let the Hunt begin.

Who was this coming up to him in a pathetic-looking car? Oh. Just some skeleton-thing. Not worth it yet. There were bigger things to kill. Bigger things to hunt. He could come later. Maybe a useful ally. A Brother who could bring their own ride was nice.

Judging by the sounds of fighting down near the entrance, they were close by. The Road Warrior raises a battered flare gun upwards as his lone, loyal Brother in Arms stops next to him; he was a man he'd picked up after he'd saved him from a bunch of raiders on the long dusty endless highway. Or maybe it was Nebraska. It never mattered where. Anyway, this man was nothing special; just another biker with a shotgun. No special powers, no nothing. Still, an extra hand was useful.

He fires, signalling the beginning of a fight. His Brother in Arms revs up their bike; a similar bike in design to the Warrior's Pursuer, saved only for his lieutenants, called the Interceptor. Should this Brother fall, the next to replace him would get this one.

"What a day." The Warrior says, calm as a mountain spring. For others, this was hell. For him and his brothers in arms, this was a normal day.
He revs up the Pursuer, ready to charge in.
"What a lovely, lovely day." No. Scratch that. It was a lovely day.
He and his Brother charge in.

It was either time to die historic, or time to show the world why the Road Warrior alone rode eternal, shining and chrome.

Hopefully the latter.

Actions:
TRW: Drive in, Shoot Stormtrooper Platoon
Brother [Biker]: Shoot Stormtrooper Platoon

"......I've had a bad feeling about that, too, if I am to be honest."
Lillian quickly pours out some tea and gets out the quickly-edible food.
"Certainly, I feel as if something is going to happen in a week......but something else has been troubling me of late. I was going to ask you if you could assist me."

7470
"Nonsense, of course I must. A customer could cut themselves." Lillian doesn't seem displeased by his protestations, but neither is she impressed. "And anyway, yes, I do have important things to discuss with you over lunch. They are not pressing, though I would like to know what you mean by what you just said."
