Fourth Round Summary

Russo
Init: 16
"ugh" Russo clutched at his side, blood creating a wide patch of red over his white top, while far from deadly it stung like a brand and made it rather painful to move around, Russo had been lucky. he propped himself against the wall getting ready to fire should an opportunity present itself

((readied action to shoot anything Nazi shaped that comes into his line of sight Hit:22 as girl-Tarot would say: BOOYAH!! damage: 7 lot of 7's and 8's happening here lol))

"This is Ridiculous! we have to get out of here, there is bound to be more of them, hows the back door looking Bones? Any Ideas?"

Eisen
Init: 15 
Moving fast and hard, Eisen bolts around the bar center and bounds over the counter, ending in space K-7. Wheeling his rifle around, he fires on Fritz near the doorway (K-5), hoping to put one down at least. He hits. [[EDIT: Sorry! You were right. He DOES have cover at that location. One-half cover actually. You will need an 18 to hit him with his cover. ]]

Nazis
Init: 12

Nazi Fritz yells He fires at Eisen who can almost feel the hum of the lead as it whizzes past his head.
[spoiler]Attack =14
Damage = 7
[/spoiler]

Nazi Egon shouts, He moves to L-2 and fires at Eisen... and HITS!
[spoiler]
Attack = 18
Damage = 6
[/spoiler]

Nazi Hanz uses a Full-Round action. "Jah! Jah!"

Richard
Init: 10
Richard hears the window crash and hops over the bar, he sees Fritz taking cover at the doorway and fires. His shot is off though, and the heavy slug sinks into the door frame.

Max
Init: 8Loder
Init: 7
Loder goes to the back window (J-4) to take a look out back to see if there are any Nazis waiting for them to run for it...

Loder's Spot Result
[spoiler]
...But he finds that the large rear stained-glass window is extremely grimy and very difficult to see details out of. He DOES notice a shadow run past the window, from North to South though. The window itself is a beautiful intricate representation of the Mother Mary holding baby Jesus in swaddling clothes. She is represented in a blue gown, complete with prerequisite saintly halo surrounding her tilted head.

Inside the room, you happen to notice an open bottle of expensive rum sitting open... and forgotten on Padre's office desk. Next to it an unused shot glass. Padre's desk is old and well worn. It has a few stacks of papers on it, all looking like bills and invoices for the cantina.

An American-style pin-up calendar showing Betty Page hangs in the corner. The calendar is current. June 1941. The days leading up to yesterday have been crossed-out with handwritten X's reminding you that today is Saturday the 7th.
[/spoiler]

BONES
Init: 3
Bones moves from the backdoor, to just inside the bar area at G-6. He smirks at Russo from across the doorway. "The back door is looking locked to me, and the last time I checked there was a Nazi holding a submachine gun on the other side." He notices the blossom of red on Russo's shirt. "Look's like you've sprung a leak. Let me know if you plan to die anytime soon." He gives a humored wink.

Bones shouts back down towards the basement.

Padre shouts up the stairs in response.




Sgt. Kestrel will be acting during the next round...

Loder grabs the bottle from the table and takes a swig to stop himself from panicking.  He then stuffs a fistful of invoices into the mouth of the bottle and pulls the lighter out of his pocket.

Max whispers before he makes his stun

The archaeologist jumps through the window in his booth [O10] smashing it, and lands on the ground just outside the bar [jump check: 22 http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2056035/]. he then advances until the southwestern corner of the bar [P5] and draws one of his grenades.

[mechanics: double movement, using jump as part of movement]

"You stay here and you keep your head low, you understand kid?" John whispers to the boy before he darts out of his booth and then jumps over both ends of the bar, before taking cover, hoping to provide fire support to Eisen.

[spoiler]Double Move over to K6 (Assuming I can get cover from the wall next to the door opening. If not, move to J6 to use the bar as cover for now.)

Jump 1: 17
Jump 2: 18[/spoiler]

Eisen feels the bullet bite into his shoulder, grunts, and finds that his miscalculation is best amended. Firing once more at Fritz to cover himself, he falls back a few feet and then sprints into the seats at M-9. Tapping wound he got to test the depth, he shouts out "So, anyone need a grenade? We should end this..."

[spoiler]
To hit Fritz: 26 (natural 20)
Roll to confirm: 9  :bigeye
Roll for damage as normal: 14[/spoiler]

[[ Russo's readied action goes off after the appearance and attack of Nazi Hanz. I can establish a LoS from the corner of Russo's square to the target. He DOES have a +4 def mod thanks to one-half cover (either due to Eisen or the window itself) and there is a matter of range...--]]

Russo sends lead south with a small explosion from his handgun. The bullet whines over the bar, and weaves a straight course between Eisen and Max and sinks into the back of the wooden pew directly under the window sending up splinter and a loud CRACK!

Max drops his pistol on the table [free action], draws his whip [move action] and makes an attempt to disarm Nazi Hanz from his submachine gun.

Slash!

Ranged attack (disarm attack/ including +2 for using whip and +4 for improved disarm): 31!
