"Hm. I don't think we want to just hit giant plates. Maybe we could shoot them first?"

"That's what the radar experts say it looks like. That doesn't mean that's what it is. The demons can't teleport giant metal plates into the ocean, can they? It could be some sort of exotic energy attack, I suppose"

"If you get a good look, let us know."

************************************

The two Agents of Corco get into the airlock, and are cycled to the outside of the submarine. Its moving fast. The demon fish are behind it, about 70 yards away still.

The four demons are swimming towards the submarine, changing their forms as they approach. One is transforming into an enormous shark. Another into a squid monster of its own sort. A third into a sort of deep sea dragon, beating its wings to "fly" through the water(*no breath attack possible though). The fourth is taking the form of a very large eel.

The demons are having to chase the sub, and are catching up steadily... about 3 yards/sec.

What skills will you use to move around the sub without getting swept away?

"Well I try to expect the unexpected. They're probably trying to redirect us in any case."

I wonder if my vibrating swords will be enough...

I'll try to climb around on the outside of the submarine.

Skills? Vassarious has no relevant skills unfortunately. Just their DX, whatever morphology adaptations they can take advantage of, and a teather to the sub.

We are in combat time, the Demons are moving towards the submarine at an effective speed of 3/yards per second, and are 67 yards away. Do you have any actions for those first 10 seconds?

I blaze away at them with the sea rifles. Maybe 6-7 seconds of fire including reload?

Attached some rolls. Drop the rolls that wouldn't happen when Halcyone was busy reloading, which I think would be... None of the first five, three of the second five (assuming a magazine similar to a Storm Carbine).

Halcyone blazes away (count your limbs, you may have more shots than you are counting). Is she concentrating fire on one of them? She has two hits so far.

Sometimes Halcyone finds her arms have a mind of their own...

Given they probably still have regeneration, I think better of dividing the fire, and choose to concentrate on one of them.

Vassarious will aim and then take fire, focusing on the Shapeshifter taking sharklike features.

(You can roll or ask me to based on if we are working on rifle defaults or natural attacks.)
