Space Crusade Mission 1: Seek & Destroy - COMPLETED

[Maturin]

That 1 equals the Ork's armour value and therefore doesn't deal damage I'm afraid.

[Mantis]

Buggery. Plasma Ortez down to C19 to take the same shot.

Roll(2d6)+0:
3,5,+0
Total:8

[Maturin]

Yeah, that 3 decimates the Ork!

[Mantis]

Phew. Sgt Valius to A14 please. And that's me done.

[Sly Boots]

I'm up for taking my move before we log off if you are, Maturin

[Maturin]

Sure thing Sly.

Here's the current map. Ultramarines creeping ahead on points, but still a huge chunk of points left on the map.... somewhere...

Spoiler

[Sly Boots]

Ok, so Plasma Vasquez to S18 and fire down the line.

3 + 1

[Maturin]

I can tell you that hidden blip was another Gretchin by the way and yep, that dealt 4 damage to each of the 3 aliens. Our biggest combo yet.

[Sly Boots]

This one's for Hudson, ya slimes! she screams, as she lets rip with her deadly assault.

Drake cannoneer takes a step into the room to his north and opens fire.

2 + 2

If I've used it correctly I'll concentrate that fire on the chaos marine this time rather than split the damage (as I don't think that can kill both?)

[Maturin]

Yep, you've got that bang on. The Chaos Marine has 2 armour so needs 3 damage to kill, which only leaves 1 and that's not enough for the Ork.

Good kill though. The Chaos Marine is worth 5 points.

[Sly Boots]

Great. I'd like to move Gorman up (he's canonically Gorman now in my head btw) to engage the ork, so just quickly talk me through how his power glove and sword work, is that two red and two white d6 for a melee attack?

[Maturin]

Yep, just roll 4 x D6.

We treat the first 2 as the red dice and the next 2 as the white dice.

Once you've done that I'll roll my 2 white dice.

[Sly Boots]

Great, I'll move Gorman up to T15 and attack the ork.

Red die: 2 + 6
White die: 6 + 4

I think that's enough?

[Maturin]

So that's only 2 damage from Gorman, which is a bit unlucky. Although it is Gorman.

Roll(2d6)+0:
6,2,+0
Total:8

And it's 2 damage from me! So that's a draw.

[Sly Boots]

Goddamn Gorman

So how does the h2h work, by the way, do you have to have the higher applicable damage of the two rolls, and then that damage is applied?
