Strangely the remaining distances are accurate.
perk: gets to use meters for range penalties

Seems like there's a bit of a difference in firepower here...

It's the recoil that's really getting in your way... 5d at RoF 10 isn't too bad.

BTW -

Halcyone should probably stay close to the airlock... A drawback to being a porcupine-kracken is that if one slips around and gets inside, Vassarious will need to shapeshift before they can fit back into the sub to help, and that's a massive time sink.

Vassarious should probably release and eat the bulk penalty so they can dart around the ship and keep eyes on all the targets. We don't want the injured one coming back around out of view.

I mean, the difference in the last set of attacks was Halcyone rolling two 15's out of three rolls.



The Rcl 1 is tricky, and for some reason its the default value on ranged attacks via advantages.



All the myriad add-ons on the attack do stack up though.

I was more thinking about how Halcyone has to reload periodically and gets fewer rolls per second. Anyway, it's fine. I'm just feeling that this combat feels like it was supposed to be a bit harder than it's working out.

Yeah, Sorry about that, I had a big pile up in work and personal life at the same time, plus some of the Play by Post stuff was in a spot that required a bit of focus to answer.


Speaking of which, I will probably miss tomorrow.
