So, any of our brave pilots hoping to add a bit of Steiner dueling to the script? If ya feel it takes too long I suppose you could always fire at a secondary (actually primary) target while using physicals on your mark.

Given goons, those piloting scores and Hogarth's Hollywood, those pilots might just miss that hard. Has anyone tried using jumpjets to dragon punch anyone else yet?

Panther Ghost Red 5 - Punches Awesome Blue 2 with Left Arm (5 base + 2 movement + 1 enemy movement = 8): rolled 8, hit Center Torso (23/30 armor remains)! “Look out, General!” Andrew exclaimed as he broke his Awesome into a dead sprint. His PPCs discharged wildly as his sudden burst of speed threw his carefully-aimed shots off target as he charged towards the newly re-risen Panther. Its body moving in unnatural jerks, the little ghost-possessed `Mech barely had to move to draw a bead on the General’s vulnerable rear armor. Its right-arm PPC rose in an instant, filling the air with charged particles before Andrew could close the gap. The manmade lightning scoured armor from the Atlas’s arm. Missiles roared from the quad-rack on the little Panther’s chest, and the wildly corkscrewing warheads detonating with a flash of pyrotechnic smoke and sparks as they struck the Atlas’s thin rear armor. Andrew struck with the force of a battering ram—at least he would have, had the fight been real. Instead, the young `Mechwarrior brought his Awesome to an abrupt halt and let fly with his chest-mounted PPCs. At such close range, and fired against such a small target, only one beam hit successfully, blasting armor from the Panther’s vulnerable legs. The Panther’s metal fist glanced from the Awesome’s heavily-armored chest, and Andrew lashed out in an instant splintering the little `Mech’s leg with a reflexive, full-power kick. “gently caress me, whoops! Sorry!” he called out apologetically even as the Panther’s pilot ejected to avoid taking a nasty tumble. It was probably for the best as the little `Mech’s head rebounded from the hard ice a moment later. The enemy `Mechwarrior’s suicidally-crimson ‘chute opened a moment later, its surface adorned with the fleurs-de-lis of Skye. For a few moments Andrew’s Awesome mirrored his sheepish uncertainty, its left arm rose to mimic scratching the back of the metal man’s head. “Sorry about that, whoever you are! I, uh--I had to stop the ghost!” Primary Objectives Rescue Melissa Steiner and Clovis Holstein (0/2) Defeat Richard Cameron (0/1) Secondary Objectives Thomas Hogarth duels the Red Corsair (0/1) One of Hogarth’s Heroes“dies” dramatically, but no more than one (0/1) Hogarth kills the ghost with his Ghost-Killer PPC (0/1) Cross the Streams (0/4) (everyone has to hit with a PPC for it to count) Hidden Objectives Piles of Cardboard Boxes Destroyed: 1 Fruit Carts Destroyed: 1 Wilhelm Screams: 1 Flubbed Lines: 1 [Unknown]  Key: Blue1) Atlas II Blue2) Awesome Blue3) Banshee Blue4) Zeus Enemy `Mech Key Red1) Battlemaster – Ran, 1 Red2) Dragon – Ran, 2 Red3) Kintaro – Ran, 2 Red4) Black Knight – Stationary, 0 Red6) Javelin – Ran, 1 Red7) Wolf Trap – Ran, 2 Red8) Panther 2 – Ran, 1 Player `Mech Status  Enemy `Mech Status

It seems like they all have to hit the same target in the same round. Or at least all have to hit a target in the same round, preferably targets that involve shooting across lines of fire.

"The Inherent Moral Superiority of the Lyran Spirit prevents Red 2 from taking a rear-arc shot!" The best part up the update, right there. Wait, I just noticed an error.

I think you'll find at 95 tons the Banshee, it is a Medium.  Also, hah, the other actors aren't allowed to take backshots unless they're "ghosts." Interesting! Not that you should let this tidbit prevent you guys from ghosting as many of them as possible, anyway. Yeowza on the Atlas headshot though, did Hogarth try to mack on the Corsair pilot's mother offstage or something?

Welp, that turn could have gone a lot better... FIRING EVERYTHING at the Kintaro didn't work out that well there, even with really decent to-hit numbers. Still, that mech has helpfully exposed his back to me, which I think I should take advantage of. Sure, it might look somewhat cowardly for a hero in a movie to take a back shot, but hey, you take the opportunities you're given... Hopefully, FIRING EVERYTHING at the Kintaro this turn will work out better than it did this turn...
