@PeacelessMasurao IS a better gear though. It's Bill who's the weak joint. Bill mentioned IN CHARACTER that he shouldn't have been able to so easily overwhelm the enemy machine. He's not some main protagonist character he is a highly specialized character in the realm of close range, AND has tunnel vision. Unless you're telling me to purposely keep throwing Bill under the bus just because Masurao is a generally superior machine to the others (no one else wanted to be rich, or have some sort of pro support) then I don't know what to tell you. What Bill does, and what he intends to do are two very different things. His ONLY form of ranged combat is a small rapid fire pistol. That's literally it. He can't retaliate against range attacks, he can't deal with brawlers without abusing his speed privileges. In a straight up fight against the other characters Ian has a legitimate chance of beating Bill if he times him, if ogre could manage to hit Bill Masurao wouldn't last long, if Sarah played her cards right she'd also have a legit chance. Fighting Bill in close range is pure suicide plain and simple. The reason I'm a bit mad over this is because I never try to purposely overpower my characters. I don't give people advantages over other characters that they couldn't do themselves. If someone wanted some fancy powerful machine they simply needed too include reasons why in their bio.

As it stands I intend to post later today I forgot yesterday while playing Clannad.

Hey it's all good, as long as your character's successes are a good measure of ours.

Alright fair enough I apologize that I forgot about your characters' backstories while typing that. I'm GM'ing multiple roleplays, and trying to remember college work at the same time. I'll see what I need to fix later.

post is basic. Brawler is engaged with Ogre, the free one is going for ian, and the other sniper is trying to desperately keep up with the rest of the group.

I had Rio fire at the free brawler so they *couldn't* go for Ian.

EDIT: You also seem to have completely ignored Ian's snapshot.

@AmmokkxI edited my post for Ian I apologize for missing it however I clearly state that the brawler BLOCKING your shots with it's shield while still moving for Ian. Ian is focused on the sniper, and so is Bill. The sniper is not capable of panicking but it is still trying to shooting at both Bill, and Ian in retaliation. Bill can't get close because everytime he does he's nearly blown to hell. Ian can't hit it because it's dodging which is hurting it's own accuracy.

In other words you're getting blocked by the free one's shield, Ian is stuck between either trying to deal with sniper bothering Bill or dealing with the brawler getting close to him, ogre is dealing with a brawler counter pushing him preventing the whip from being useful, and that leaves Sarah to deal with the sniper, or the brawlers.

clearly state


"The free brawler charged directly at Ian keeping it's shield between itself, and Rio..."

Clearly state my rear end, this is more like an implication. I mean, I kinda fucked up in not noticing, but it wasn't really clear. Adding the four words 'to block the shots' would have been clearly stating and I wouldn't have gotten confused. Or any number of:

'Causing the bullets to ricochet off'
'Making the damage negligible'
'So she was unable to stop them'

Anyway, thanks for clearing it up. Just... be a tad more clear next time, or otherwise this stuff flies over my head.

@vancexentan@Ammokkx It's only half my fault. I've been trying to scramble to prepare for Finals. I swear I'm trying though.

I suppose everyone's busy with real life? Not much chatter in the OOC. I've been playing games, Gm'ing a few other roleplays, and dealing with internet trolls and Dokkan Battle taking my money again.

Yeah, I'm kinda bouncing all around everywhere in prep for the school trip.

I should probably mention that here, too, actually. I'll be leaving in two days and won't be back 'till Friday. I'll try to get up one last post before I depart, tho.

I work, I sleep, I repeat.
Nah, but seriously, I'm still around! Just waiting for the battle to finish before I post. Don't wanna upset the flow, y'know? So instead, I've been playing Kingdom Hearts. I pretty much sustain myself solely on nostalgia now. It's great!
