[Taocow PBEM] [Oz] Book 3 - Chapter X - The Quest For Louissa

>> [GM]
>> The guard nods and makes his way up the path as stealthily as he can.
>> Oz is able to get within forty feet of the tower. The tower is set
>> atop a rock outcropping, with one entry; a broken down door. There are
>> five bodies on the ground by the tower, all in patchwork armor and not
>> New Camelot soldiers. Oz can spot two snipers in the bushes across
>> from him.
>>
>> Inside the tower, from what Oz can see, is the ugly chaos of battling
>> inside a closed space. He can see Sir Prrcyvel and one of his guards
>> braced in hand to hand combat with at least four men. Another of the
>> New Camelot guards is lying on the ground, dead or injured. One of the
>> men battling Sir Prrcyvel seems to have some sort of silvery metal
>> gauntlets on his otherwise naked arms that glow with each blow he
>> rains upon the knight.
>>
>> Looking back at the path, Oz can see his own guard creeping up the
>> path and taking position just off of it in the brush. He radios Oz and
>> reports "Pitched battle sir. I think I can take out one of the snipers
>> from here. Should I try?"

[GM]
The guard responds "The one to the left."

[GM]
Oz fires a perfect shot, striking the sniper [Damage: 100MD], and
blasting the sniper pretty much to tiny bits and pieces.

The guard's shot isn't nearly as precise or damaging [Strike: 14,
Damage: 21MD], and the other sniper dives for cover, and can be heard
shouting something into his radio.

"Damn!" Oz's guard curses. "What's next, sir?"
[/GM]
