Hi Runners!
This is what happened in the Sprawl Sites:
Limoko, the samurai, is standing in the middle of the street.
He has already noticed that Zorka, the mage was sneaking around.
The time passes and Limoko nearly falls asleep ( everything is
so boring ) when suddenly Zorka steps out of the shadow behind
him and shouts :"Burn, samurai, burn for what you ve done..."
Limoko has done really nothing, it just happened as now,
he knows what will happen...
The battle :
Zorka : "Let me have the first strike, please!" attacks at 6
Limoko: "OK, try it.." waiting... attacks at 14,7
Zorka : Fireball Level 6 magicpool 6
6+3 dice against 6 (base constitution of Limoko)
result: 1 1 2 3 4 4 5 5 9 -> 1 point : L2
Limoko: speed 4d + constitution 6+2d = 12d
against 6 (level of spell ?) What must he roll?
result: 1 2 2 3 4 4 4 5 7 10 11 15
-> 4 points: no damage! perhaps he is cured? (joke)
Zorka : saving mind power 6d +magicpool 3d = 9 dice ag. 6D3
result: 1 2 2 3 3 3 3 7 10 -> 2 points D deathly
D mind damage ! totally knocked out!
Limoko: the air warms up... hmm
Why is Zorka lying on the ground?
sits down , coz standing is so boring...
Thats it?!
Hmm...
What do You think about it?
