To
pick up where we left off yesterday, we're still waiting to find out
who succeeded and who failed in the gunfire exchange. The Krissethi
dove for cover and is prone on the floor—that dive through the air
gave him a +1 against Ranged Dodge, which was just enough to avoid
the Archaeloid's attack with the Urban Warrior—the bullet whizzed
past the Krissethi and punctured a metal crate behind him. However,
because the Krissethi had spent his movement phase aiming, his +1 to
attack essentially negated the +1 to Ranged Dodge the Archaeloid
gained from the Sidestep talent, and the thorn bullet successfully
hit the Archaeloid. Erwani Thorn pistols do 3 points of damage, and
the Archaeloid has natural armor of 2, which is basically damage
resistance. Only 1 point of damage goes through, so the Archaeloid is
just Lightly Wounded. However, 1 point of damage was all the
Krissethi needed for his bullet to deliver the Jitters poison into
the Archaeloid's nervous system. In 1 more round, the poison will
take effect and the Archaeloid will suffer -1 to all of his skills
for the next 2 hours!
