Just as the Bean Bunch turn a corner and head down the street toward the blacksmith, they encounter five finely-dressed gentlemen — suited up and wearing top hats — wandering through the chaos. They are sporting new-fangled fancy automatic pistols, popular with the wealthy in Covett City.

These must be Incorporation goons!

Somebody roll 2d6 to see how they react to you!
Snake eyes - 1 and 1. Oh well. :lol:

With a disdainful glare, the Incorporation goons quickly draw their auto-pistols and fire at you.

Everyone in the gang, test Luck to avoid being shot to pieces like Mr Kinney!
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.

LUCK: 5 - 1 = 4

I'll use Tough Nut to try and avoid damage: 4 on the first roll, 18 on the second, minus 1 = 17 GRIT.

I'll then fire back with both guns.

SLICK: 19 - 1 = 18

Slackarms damage: 5 + 4 (from d4) = 9
Revolver damage: 4

Yeah, as soon as he has an opportunity to do so, Doc will return fire as well, both barrels.

13 and 14.

Not sure if those will be hits, but if so, damage rolls are:

7 and 3

All right, so, both the 13 and 14 rolls are successes, Doc, but I am ruling that the Übermensch effects have worn off (after all, it is the next day) so you should just roll once from now on except for your special skills.

I will wait until Cumflutter and Scrancher have rolled for Luck before I work out the return fire results.

Sorry, I was aware the potion had worn off (I didn't add anything to my Slick dice rolls), I just thought when I fired both guns I rolled a d20 for each.

Nah, it's one Slick roll to aim with both pistols, basically!

14 + 3 on the D20

I'll fire back with my new pistol as well. Roll 4 on the D6.

Re-roll the six and add the new result to the 6!
