End of part 6

Stepping out into the room where Flashy has just met his end steps Boss Nutter and his bodyguard, Spike. Looking over at Flashy he snorts, “That wasn't very good manners was it. Take em out, Spike”.

Spike thinks for a moment, “Uuh, take 'em where, Boss ??”

“Nowhere, just kill them !”

“Oh, I like that job.”

“Fire !”

Click, click.

“I fogot to charge it.”

BZZZT, HUMMMMMMM.

“Idiot”

Boss Nutter heads the frag grenade into the back room, where it explodes harmlessly.

Gus lets loose a hail of lead at Boss Nutter.

Attack Roll (2,12 - a hit, Boss Nutter falls to the ground, dead.)

Extra Action - Gus switches his aim to Spike.

Attack Roll (7+1=8 - a hit, Spike falls across Boss Nutter, its green blood oozing across the floor .)

Squad 2

Martin finds another prisoner in a small chamber off the main room. 1 Victory point gained.

Extra Action, He frees Harry and charges up his weapon.

Pinky and Chris check two of the doors, both are dead ends.

Meanwhile

The Warrior spends its time eating its first victim. It throws the outer skins into a corner.

Turn 8

Roll for extra actions. 11 +2 =13. So 3 extra actions.

Squad 1

Lucy, who has now been healed, returns to the spaceship. (But at a reduced speed 3 from now on.) She sees a dim figure in the distance, but it does not look like one of her squad.

Gus and Sgt.Ted try the two nearest doors, but both were dead ends.

Extra Action. As Gus approaches another doorway, he feels a strange vibration coming through the floor. He pauses to see if anything else happens. He notices a slight flickering of light.

Squad 2

Pinky and Chris check two of the doors, both are dead ends.

Extra Action. Chris checks the door on the left and it opens to reveal a passageway ahead and two openings to the left and right. Martin, Harry and Pinky follow behind.

From around the corner lumbers the menacing figure of Boss Gizmo.

Close Combat

Round 1

While his Plasma pistol is charging up, he swings his Power fist at Chris, (2+4=6) who ducks out of the way and fires back (4+1=5). but it bounces off Boss Gizmo's armour.

Round 2

Boss Gizmo's fires the now charged plasma gun at Chris, (3+2=5, 6+2=8, A Hit on his shield, now down to 2) who staggers back slightly, then fires back (1+1=2 miss). but it just makes a loud "CLICK", he is out of ammo.

Round 3

While his Plasma pistol is charging up, he swings his Power fist at Chris, (7+4=11, a hit on his shield, now down to 1). Chris lobs a frag grenade at the Boss, while he is reloading. It lands at Boss Gizmo's feet and the blast blows him backwards. Since Chris was so close, he has to check for damage too,(11) his shield is weakened by 1, now out of charge.

Meanwhile

The Warrior spends its time eating its second victim, having learned how to peel it from its not very hard shell.
