Sabot Tango OOC

@Cainhurst Crow just so we are all on the same page Thelemy is moving only after Burkhart crests the horizontal view of the roof. For the sake of shared time I just want to make sure since you are commiting to actions or a window after the rest of us have finished ours this round. I don't think Thelemy would be able to target and react to Burkhart until he is view.

Also Burkhart is on the north side of the building facing south so his body is between you and his jetpack so you can still try to shoot it, all like 2 cm of visible hardware maybe at any one time.

That is true. I suppose i can change it to just aiming for most of his body. And for the sake of fairness, i would be jumping the very instant burkhart came over the ridge. Take into account this is being done with the aid of the force, so i imagine distance and speed are not a problem. It'd likely be 1.5 seconds from jumping to landing.

@Darasuum @Rimrald

I have edited my post regarding where I am aiming, and i am now aiming to hit Burkhart's arm that is holding his violator, which while still a difficult target to hit, also has chances of becoming body shots, and isn't some impossible to hit target like the jetpack. I have also kept my post about jumping as is. I would assume there is a tiny delay between the elevator arriving and the doors opening, enough to cover my jump onto the roof. But we will see where it ends up going from here.

How soon @Rimrald arrives in the next post is relative to how much time was between @Darasuum and him departing, considering it would be easy for the the former to fly up.

Are you asking how long it takes rim’s character to arrive?

 

[Darasuum]

@Cainhurst Crow still have my as "facing north" when Burkhart is facing south.

 

[Rimrald]

In this round the shared time doesn’t have any bearing on how soon I arrive, I suggested in the ooc I could arrive in the next round if you’d liked and no one said otherwise.

So that’s what my edit reflected would be happening this round.

 

[Cainhurst Crow]

@Cainhurst Crow still have my as "facing north" when Burkhart is facing south.

When i wrote that it was in reference to where burkhart is in relation to the building. Not what cardinal direction burkhart himself is. You're facing the building, and by extension, facing us. I don't think anyone here is going to debate that.

@Rimrald is your attack happening during m
Your movements or am I confused xd

Anyone wanna throw up a dirty map reference?

I can get one up. I’ve had one partially prepped for a couple of days

 

[Darasuum]

So the map is actually bigger but i figured i'd only do the part with us in it
It's rough and Burkhart is actually further up and to the left (north west) than is shown but the map did not go further than those square (poor planning on my part)

also as a note, idk if @Rimrald corrected his post but he would technically be closer than 15 meters from alexandra, actually less than 10 meters since she only backed away 10 meters and the elevator door would not be at the actual edge of the wall so i'd say 9-7 meters give or take.

Since each square is 1 meter it's fairly rough. let me know if i should make changes

 

[Rimrald]

Juulius enters in the elevator, steps out. Fires, then moves to put cover between he and Alexandra

Edited the distance

@Cainhurst Crow @Xorism I don't think it it is reasonable for a level 1 who is focusing on one target to avoid being shot by a full burst of a light repeater at less than 10 meters who has arrived so recently. I know light repeaters are quite inaccurate but at that range I think a level 1 non force user would be able to keep the sights centered on a close target unless you are going to try some other actions to defend from the attack or be willing to tank the damage.

Also, turning sideways is not all it's cracked up to be for dodging blaster bolts or avoiding damage. I've seen you mention it several times and these are not soccer moms with their .38 special purse revolvers shooting at you. Even a level 1 can keep it center of mass well enough just like a level 1 force user knows how much strength they need behind a lightsaber swing to cut through a person.

sorry, meant to tag @Xorism

@Darasuum his post stated that his arrival was moments after the initial action, which with shared time would place it after Alex has already fired, are you saying that as Burk flew away and didn't shoot further at Alex that she wouldn't notice or hear the turbolift operating and then opening 8 meters from her while essentially nothing else is occurring in her vicinity to distract her? Without a lightsaber to deflect, she would have eaten a blaster round for sure, but unless you're saying @Rimrald 's guy started shooting before Alex fired or at the same time which by his own post he didn't, I'm not sure why there wouldn't be enough of a gap between the fighting to allow the action?

Yes, that is why he did not attack the same round as Burkhart attacked. He did a round of just traveling up the turbo lift which was the last round. There's blaster shots going off (sirens maybe of an attack, maybe, not sure if you said it was a silent alarm) but if there was a little "ding" of an elevator arrives that's fine. She is getting shot at by Burkhart and also returning fire back at him in the recent exchange. The moment that their is not sound wouldn't allow someone to hone in on the sound of a pin drop. People start to notice abnormalities in noise during prolonged silence not when there is a bunch of hubbbub. I am under the impression that he fired when Burkhart started moving away to avoid damage. @Rimrald unless I have that wrong.

My original post indicated a silent alarm, but for sound I was using canon examples of turbolifts opening which aren't just a little bell ringing but rather a loud whoosh of sorts.

That's fine then. But still, 5 light blaster bolts for a level one with one lightsaber at that distance would not all be avoidable. Expected or not.

 

[Rimrald]

You’re correct in that assumption @Darasuum
