Doc will lean around the doorframe and fire off both his revolvers at the nearest living clown.

Wanna spend an Ace to re-roll? Otherwise, roll a d6 then either:

1. Lose your hat!
2. Make a Death check!

BLAM! BLAM!

You shoot two clowns dead! But not before one of them gets a bat connected with Roach's head (though the outcome of this is yet to be determined...)

Excellent; Cadaver Kid ducks out of the way of the incoming club, before one of Doc's bullets puts that Clown down!

Now we're just waiting to see what Roach will do to mitigate the potential fatal blow he's about to receive, and what Cumflutter decides to do with the last remaining clown!

Cumflutter will attempt to shot the remaing clown with his revolver and split his melon open with the tomahawk should that fail.

All right, Cumflutter, roll a d6 for that revolver!

Right, I'll tell you what happens to this last Clown as soon as Roach has rolled for his damage and then decides how he's going to cope with it...
