l3wt-[5]: you take the wheel, and instead of Plumbum's maniac driving, going the wrong way up the highway, you handbrake turn the bus around and manage to take out a good few police cars as you do it.

l3wt[4]: You just manage to get Plumbum back.

I'll try and get an M4A1 and start shooting.

Plumbum[2]: I slip when I get my gun and snap it clean in half.

You know, I sense an odd paradox here. There was no ammo for the gun I wanted, and your gun uses the same calibre as mine. So why do you get ammo and I don't!? WHAT IS THIS I DON'T EVEN!

l3wt[5]- With a jet on your bus, it isn't much problem to outrun the police, yet you somehow manage to instead crash every single on of them off of the road.

I've just had an idea: wounding.

Light wounds: (result of a 3 or 2 when dodging):

-1 to all non-healing or 1/6 rolls

Heavy wounds: (result of a 2/3 dodge when lightly wounded or a 1/6 dodge when uninjured

-2 to all non-healing or 1/2 rolls

Mortally wounded (result of a 1/6 dodge when lightly wounded or a 2/3 dodge when heavily wounded):

-3 to all non-dodging rolls, and -2 to dodging rolls. Healing must be done by someone else.

Dead (result of a 1/6 dodge when heavily wounded or a 2/3 dodge when mortally wounded)

Can't do anything. Duh.

What do you think?

I try to get some ammo from a gun shop.

Plumbum[1]: You go into the shop, but sirens blare up in the distance. You breathe the word 'shit', but the cashier hears you and does not serve you. You do not have a gun with ammo, so you decide to return to the bus. The cashier has hit the silent alarm.

I attempt to set up the Gatling Gun on the roof of the bus. I just need to fold it out and find the ammo

l3wt [5]: you manage to hit the afterburner, and you get such a rocket start, that you are out of sight before the police arrive.

Plumbum [1]: you find the ammo, but when trying to feed the belt into the gun, the belt of ammo flies off, because you haven't unfolded the gun yet.
