Science 4 banked +3 income = 7 science
Material 8 banked +8 income = 16 materials.

Round 2 VP total: 7 (6 hexes, 0 tech, 0 Rep tiles, 0 Diplomacy tile, 0 Discovery tile, 1 Race bonus)

The ancient had higher initiative, so didn't it go first?

I have to agree with mr fungus here. The ancient shoots first so wouldn't the 3 and the 2 be the ancient's rolls and the 5 & 6 are Khell's?

I'll break that down further.

1 dread firing 2 shots. 1#2d6
the 'x5' modifier == a 5 or better is a hit. you have +1 computer and they have -0 shields.

1 ancient firing 2 shots. 1#2d6
he 'x5' modifier == a 5 or better is a hit. it has +1 computer and you have -0 shields.

Lol, thanks for the child-speak, but I understand that part :) I think you've got it the wrong way round though.

Indeed, you even say at the beginning of your combat post that the ancient fires first...

You're absolutely correct.

Hmm. Conundrum.

I am loathe to just switch shots although that's a reasonable thing to do in this very specific situation.

I would say it is a VERY reasonable thing to do. You thinking one was the other had no effect whatsoever on it. You simply mixed up the results.

And that solves the conundrum. The mistake was in the listing of the description. Since both sides roll the same number of dice no re-roll is necessary.

Danke.


And my sincere apologies to Orokos for calling it a dice-shitter. Heat of the moment and all that.
