Actually, did we ever learn if our bikes have any saddle-bags or carry capacity?
I'm going to say you stole some saddle-bags from that general store you robbed and attached them to your bicycles. They can store ten items per bike.
My fire is more than can be made with forests,
My state more base than are the basest valleys;
I wish no evenings more to see, each evening;
Shamed, I hate myself in sight of mountains,
And stop mine ears, lest I grow mad with music.

Awesome, in that case is it ok if we retcon a little bit and say Doc stored some stuff there before arriving at the mayor's house - canteen, opium and 1 slot of ammo?

He'll then keep the tablet and grab a bottle of acid from one of the boxes.

Right...so...the floor is covered in pools of acid, with shards of glass in them.

To walk across the room safely, make a Slick test!

If that was a damage roll it wouldn't have helped lol, Doc's got 4hp.

It helps a bit!

A Death Check roll adds your GRIT to the final result, then subtracts the amounts of damage below zero. That being the case, your final Death Check roll result was 17.


Doc clambers through the broken window into the drawing room, then slips and falls into a large puddle of nitric acid and floating shards of glass!

Your clothes hiss and smoke, yet somehow, by a miracle, you take no damage! :o

Doc's spent so long drinking pretty much any fluid he stumbles across, he's probably fundamentally altered his biochemistry at this point :lol:

"Heck, this ain't that bad!"

"Come on in, the water's fine!"


JUST DON'T DRINK IT, DOC!

Talking about drink, could have also added the bottle of whisky sweet, faithful Jinx has been lugging around for me, to my saddlebag?
