It would be common knowledge for your characters that a building of this size has to have one or more medical facilities/supply storages with stuff to patch you up during downtime, if you'll just look for it.

Seems like plenty of questions while I was away, let me know if I miss something.

@osle: Out of curiosity, how do you handle creatures joining an encounter already in progress? Do you roll their initiative and make them play their turn somewhere between the PCs and enemies or do you just lump them with the enemies/PCs depending on whether they are allies/enemies/neutral?

Lump them.

So needless to say, I've been ignoring the HP gain, screwing up bonuses, wiping entire posts to redo actions, and so on. I get so bogged down in this the tab explosion to even reread my a Maneuver or Spell does is forgotten in seconds. Stream lining Heat rape/bonuses to be end of round and revamping Atomic Dragon's Ability Boost to be say a flat +1/+2/+3/+4 to Attack, Damage, Saves, and maybe Skills like Sadism would help out a lot. That way it's a single flat rate value during your entire turn.

Excellent point, changed to flat out bonus. Anomander will have to do the heat rules part tough.

Spirits work whether you're in your mecha or not. It is just that the healing ones specifically mention that the healing is done to the mecha. So you could, say, heal your mecha with a spirit even if you are not piloting it.
Correct. I won't say that was intended from the start, but it kinda makes sense now that you mention it. :p

It makes sense I can overcome a mecha's injuries through spirit but not my own? :O

You know, we ARE pretty close to the entrance, my mecha IS small enough and it CAN operate independently from me.

Are you all thinking what I'm thinking?

Give me internets. Now.

Your mecha is small or lower? By all means, bring it in. Break the doors if needed.

No, we go outside and our Mechs step on the enemies.

Through of it a couple rounds ago but someone wants to be neck deep in enemies.

And for those of us not paying much attention, namely my self, is that person the same one that had their mech blown up? I'm just wondering if there's a trend and I should be looking into what buff spells I've got on Arcane Pilot's crappy list.

Yes. Yes it is.  :lmao

And I just feel like these robots wouldn't follow us outside the tower.

That would be fine if there weren't more possible survivors to go rescue inside the facility.
Which is, like, most of the reason we even went in there.

Getting separated from everyone else wasn't intentional this time. I did not expect to utterly fail to get out on the first round at those speeds. :p

... as for getting exploded, oh well. Always got to try and make friends. :lmao

The update of this will have to wait until next weekend I'm afraid. Just too busy with RL stuff to properly focus on D&D combat.

May update low end if they decide to go somewhere since they're out of combat right now.

Unless you have at least 15 feet reach, no.

Assuming we go after crazy prototype girl, I guess so.

Hugo did mention that the bots will probably keep on coming unless we turn the security system off, though.

Anyone invest Ranks in Use Computers or did they, like me, think D20 Modern's Skills were off the table?
Maybe Disable Device?

I don't think we could reasonably disable the security system from the entrance, not when this was constructed as a settlement.

Depends whetever you want to pursue Erinye prototype or not.

You need to find the main system console and press the glowing buttons. It doesn't take much of computer skill, just finding the right room for it.
