Game #6 : Galactic Gladiators
Ambassador in the middle. We surround 'em, bag'em, and get the prize. The essential thing is focusing fire all together, with a single Evil Brain the escorts will be more murderous than the Bar Reprobates we killed.
Or we can go knives out and bumrush them from the building one after the other, trusting surprise to overwhelm and kill the escort before they can react properly, good old "hugging" tactics. Can't grenade us if we're right on them, right.
Right?
I’ll start in the top-left house with a door.
And now that I’ve read that the ambassador can run away, the middle seems the best bet.
Quote from Andnjord on 14 December 2021, 12h31Any intel on the ambassador's security detail? Numbers, expertise levels?
Also, can I only blow up doors or can I blow up walls too?
So I checked : you can blow absolutely everything and, fun part I did not know, you can reload and reuse the weapon as many time as you want in a battle.
Here is Kalarion :
@Porkbelly I realized that I did not save your character (saving requires mild operations with the emulator, as you need to emulate a data disk) so your character has been recreated, and you got lucky with the rolls : +1 STR, +1 END.
I'll start in the park, with my sword at the ready
For the ambassador, do we try to stun him from as soon he's in range? Or we concentrate on the bodyguards and run the risk of him moving away?
I'm with Andnjord. I've received the commander's assurance that he can blow anything, and I want to be there when it happens.
You'd better not blow this!
I'll start in the rightmost room at the top in the doorway.
We will attack from all sides at once, and overwhelm the weak ambassador's army.
I decide not to punch Porkbelly. Not yet, at least. We need all the numbers we can get. Uncivilized human. Pfft.
Yes, Brutus, Hi Ho! I am certain we shall be great friends!

I have nothing against you. I’m just playing a character. :).
It’s (insert pair of (maybe) friendly rivals here)!
Quote from Andnjord on 15 December 2021, 0h54I'll start in the center-North building, the one without a door, ready to blow a hole in the wall and ambush them.
Anyone would want to join me there to start? @baud? @dayyalu?
I'll join And and prepare for the jump.
I'll start in the bottom center building, ready to pop out and phaser someone. My tentative plan is to try disabling/wounding at least one bodyguard, then use my superior DX (DICKS :D) to get up close and stun the shit out of all and sundry.
I feel like this plan is bulletproof. GERONIMO!
OK so bad news, I am going to postpone one day. I just realized you need to manually reequip grenades at the end of a battle, JUST as I had finished deployment. Which takes age because the game is old.
Meanwhile can you confirm you are OK with this deployment (A for ambassador) :
Notes :
People who don't engage combat will not get engaged by the bodyguards
The exit point is the park, from what I understand. Am I correct ?
Ambassador is running from left to right, if that changes anything.
You placed me in the bottom right room. Could you move me to the top right doorway if it wouldn’t be much of a hassle? Thank you.
I think I’m in a good enough spot.
Looks good! Rutus can punch him in the face as he goes past and then bustle him out through the trees.
Piece of cake! What could go wrong? 🙂
