Adepticon Prison break

The one with each player having a powered-up Spec-ops and a boarding action map with various objectives and a dropship getting shot at by an autocannon Kurgat? I might have the file somewhere, but it might be on the backup hard drive.

 

I'd love this as well! Thank you!!

 

Hey guys, I'm not the one running it but I did write it so I totally have it if you want. I haven't ever posted it publicly because there are loads of surprises in it and that sort of ruins the fun IMO. Seems like maybe the (drop)ship has sailed on some of those surprises though. Usually, I just share it with anyone who asks for it on PM.

 

I don't know how you ended up doing this, but I've played that scenario once at a tournament and everyone picked a Muyib for their spec-ops because they're so much better than the other options. That was kinda boring I'm thinking about making 2 teams of 4 preset specializations (totally not related to the fact that I wanna run this for 2 buddies) and let people choose. Should look better as a spec-op gone wrong.

I'm thinking something like the following classes (tentative version 1.0 obv):

ASSAULT - Mov 6-2, CC 22, MA3, DA CCW, boarding shotgun, V:NWI
HEAVY - spitfire, HFT, ARM 5, W 2 possible upgrades to PH/BTS/etc. to make him more HI-like
SNIPER - multi sniper rifle, MSV2, Camouflage, shock mines, heavy pistol
SPECIALIST - HD+, doctor+, WIP 15, assault pistol (no rifle!), D-Charges (this one looks kinda weak, especially if someone's playing him alone and not a team)


ed: gave them some polish, it looks like this now:
ASSAULT CLASS
MOV CC BS PH WIP ARM BTS W S
6-2 22 11 13 13 2 0 1 2
Martial Arts L3, V: No Wound Incapacitation, Kinematika L2, Hyper-Dynamics L1
Boarding shotgun, Panzerfaust, DA CCW, knife

HEAVY CLASS
MOV CC BS PH WIP ARM BTS W S
4-4 13 13 12 13 5 3 2 2
Spitfire+HFT, heavy pistol, knife

SNIPER CLASS
MOV CC BS PH WIP ARM BTS W S
4-4 13 12 10 13 1 0 1 2
CH: Camouflage, Multispectral Visor L2
Multi Sniper Rifle, Antipersonnel Mines (3), heavy pistol, knife

SPECIALIST CLASS
MOV CC BS PH WIP ARM BTS W S
4-4 13 11 10 15 1 6 1 2
Hacking Device Plus, Doctor [Plus?], Medjector
Assault pistol, D-Charges, knife
[possibly some weak G: Synchronized drone, if no Cybermask]

 

OK I gave it some thought and bounced them off my friend, here's a more polished version:

Code:

ASSAULT CLASS
MOV    CC   BS   PH   WIP   ARM   BTS   W   S
6-2    22   11   13   13     1     0    1   2
Frenzy
Martial Arts L3, V: No Wound Incapacitation, Kinematika L1, Hyper-Dynamics L1, Scavenger
Boarding shotgun, Panzerfaust, DA CCW, D-Charges, Pistol, Knife

[very specialized but great in his niche, designated breacher; still wouldn't go toe-to-toe with Daturazis though]

Code:

HEAVY CLASS
MOV    CC   BS   PH   WIP   ARM   BTS   W   S
4-4    13   13   12   13     5     3    2   5
Hackable
V: Courage, Scavenger
Spitfire, HFT, Heavy Pistol, Knife

[Simple for a reason, he's the designated newbie character. Just stomp around and shoot things, in the meantime your buddies will teach you to use the HFT effectively]

Code:

SNIPER CLASS
MOV    CC   BS   PH   WIP   ARM   BTS   W   S
4-4    13   13   11   13     1     0    1   2
CH: Camouflage, Marksmanship L2, Multispectral Visor L2, X-Visor, Scavenger
Multi Sniper Rifle, Antipersonnel Mines, Pistol, Knife

[Stats look like a lot but they're really not. It's mostly an indoor map where sniper ranges suffer, and the party has no smokes to exploit the full potential of MSV2]

Code:

SPECIALIST CLASS
MOV    CC   BS   PH   WIP   ARM   BTS   W   S
4-4    13   11   13   15     1     6    1   2
Hackable (as Hacker)
Hacking Device Plus, Doctor, Engineer, Medjector, Scavenger
CrazyKoalas (2), Assault Pistol, Knife
1 G:Servant helperbot (Palbot stats)

[Gadget guy, mission specialist, the one with lots to do but not enough time. Will probably need good management of his bots.]

Notes:
- CrazyKoalas and Palbot don't exist at the start of game, they get deployed in B2B with the Specialist when he gets his weapons back
- you could switch sniper's mines for Drop Bears for more cinematic plays (at the cost of increased complexity though)
- Heavy's S5 is only for fluff and miniature selection, adjust as needed.
- If you want you can put Heavy's armor with the weapons - drop stats to compensate until he gets armor back. Works well if you use a Gecko or Anaconda for the Heavy.
- D-Charges went to the Assault guy as the designated door breacher, they can work in tandem with the Specialist setting them off. Also the Specialist is now more of a "gadget guy". Assault guy's Panzerfaust feels kinda superfluous but it could make for fun "duuude I shot a Soragat in the face with a rocket" situations, so I let it be.
- all ranges assume that ~70% of map is indoors/boarding action, there are a few outdoors spaces where you could move between buildings but not many, so 8-16 and 0-8 rangebands are most important, hence the X-Visor sniper
- not sure why you'd ever use Assault guy's pistol, but there's gonna be some guy complaining about his soldier not having a standard issue sidearm/backup gun/whatever so there you go :)
- not sure if the Specialist should have access to Cybermask. I might switch his HD+ to an AHD/HD combo, but I'll have to check the program lists.
- order-wise I assumed that everyone's got 2 Irregular orders, plus maybe a few (2?) regular ones per group of 4.
- I included the Scavenger rule in each profile because otherwise players will definitely forget they can use it.
