Subject: Eye for an eye..........
Opening the door Asher slipped inside with the intentions of quickly making his way to the stairs leading to the second level. But something snagged his foot in the dark. He attempted to stop but he already moved too far and couldn't prevent his shoe from pulling the trip wire. He could feel the pressure release to his right and knew that is where the blast would come. Ducking and covering as best he could, he turn his back to the blast letting his duster take the impact.
*FLASH* *BANG*
He curses himself for foolishly charging into a room. He never suspected that these locals would think to booby trap the jailhouse; they must have been directed from someone with military background. He could hear someone coming down the stairs. He had to clear his head fast or he was a dead man. As he moved with gun out a muffled voice seemed to come from all around him. "A woman’s voice saying “come here" or "quickly" - it is hard to make out. Then he hears the voice closer and the sound of footfalls nearby.
A woman appeared near the foot of stairs, the glint of a rifle in her hands and she was swinging it toward Ash. He heard her voice but the only words he seemed to make out were” You’re Dead! I’ll kill you myself.”
That rifle had nearly ended his life once before and he wasn’t going to give it another chance. His leveled his Python at the figure on the stairs. A look of surprise and horror distorted the lovely features on Winnie’s face as Ash squeezed off three quick rounds. His Python bit hard.
Somewhere in the back of his mind he knew he’d taken three and now the score was even. He stepped forward to check on the back shooting bitch. As he approached the stair he drew the other Python and listened for more footsteps of anyone coming to Winnie’s aid. He carefully looked around the side of the stairs; he hoped she wouldn’t move, he didn’t want to shoot her again.

Great, spent a plot point. Now I'm figuring Winnie is carrying her rifle and has a communicator visible. The "come quick", sounded like a call for help.
I hope to start the post tonight base the above on what else you tell me about the plot point. I think you mean he react immediatly as he turns to her with his gun drawn.

Topic: Voyages of the Rocinante - Firefly RPG QnA
Subject: Not your regular booby........
Well I was wondering, seeing that the kid is a weapons specialist, I'd figure since he recognized that he tripped the wire of the booby trap he'd recognize the sound of the flashbang pin pulling out and know the delay before it detonated, most grenades have some delay. It was very quiet so he'd have heard the mechanisms clicking. Instinct would be to duck and cover, closing eyes and hands over ears. Now there is a force impact from the blast, but he could reduce the sound stun and flash sight reduction, is this reasonable?
I'm trying to gage his reaction time and what his next actions.
Can I play some of my points to reduce the effect? If so how? I've not done that before.

Subject: For better or for worse….
Andrew and Wolf headed into the dark. Asher hurried back to Doc’s and rapped at the door. After a couple of moments Doc McGuire peeked out the through yellow gingham curtains in the window over the sink in the kitchen. The latch on the back door clicked and Doc slide the door open,” I’m all out of milk, did you forget something?”
“Doc, we’re gonna do our best to save your town, but it’ll be tough do’in it alone. Miss Willow seemed to make friends with Grandfather of the Tong. If someone were to get a message to them that Miss Willow could use some help it could turn things for the better. Just let know we’re not work’in for the sheriff or Miss Bridgett. If they hear us say Miss Willow then they’ll know it’s us and not them, er.. well.. you know what I mean. “
“Kid, you just be careful, who knows what may or may not happen. The Tong’ll do what they went.” Then with slight glint in his eye Doc said, “I wouldn’t be a bit surprised if’n they didn’t know about you already.”
With that Ash turned and slide along the side of the building as he carefully made his way toward the Jailhouse. They still had time before the dawn would remove the darkness and shadows the team needed to reach their objective undetected.
Hoping the darkness would cover his movement Ash crossed the road to the Tong Citadel. The Building blocked the view from the jailhouse giving the Kid good cover as he hurried along the north wall. Now crossing the alley Ash tried not to move so it would attack any attention. The backs of the buildings along Main where turned just enough that their roofs over hangs blocked anyone on top of the jail from seeing, it also kept him from getting a clear view if anyone was up there.
As he reached the last building Ash decided to cut down the alley to Main Street, it would be closer to the jail’s back door. Pausing at the end of the walk in front of the build, Ash looked up to see if he could detect any sound or movement on top of the jail. Not sensing any movement the Kid straightened up and strode purposefully across the fifty feet to the jail. He hoped that it would look like he was supposed to be there.
(O.O.C., now assuming he made to the jail.)
Opening the door Asher slipped inside and quickly made his way to the stairs leading to the second level. Moving as quietly as he could the Kid made way through the levels to where ladder was that lead to the lookout post on the roof.
(O.O.C., now assuming he didn’t find anyone on the first, second or third level.)
Knowing he’d be an easy target poking his head through the opening at the top of the ladder Ash readied a flashbang to toss into the lookout post. That should stun anyone up there.
Patiently Ash waited and listened at the bottom of the ladder, he wanted to be sure someone was up there before he tossed in his toy.

Subject: Oh Crap…..
Doc had made his way across the bridge behind the Captain and Greta. The sarge followed behind and Corbin protects the flank. He quickly moved deeper into castle entrance intending to catch Romo as he moves forward to scan the courtyard. He wanted to check his wounds before they moved into the castle. He couldn't help but notice the mass of empty bullet casings that strewn the ground like gravel.
As Doc prepared to open his first aid kit there was a commotion behind. Turning back to bridge his jaw dropped as he saw Corbin running for his life and Brutal going gungho and giant tentacles lurched up from under the bridge.
“Jake, get your ass back here. Everyone run I don’t have that many bandages.” Lifting his M1 Jack started pulling rounds into the tentacle nearest Brutal.
“Shit Jake move....Run Corbin....Sarge get Greta away from the bridge…….., everyone back here quick……., Holy Mother Of God!”

Subject: Let's go......
Ash listened as he slipped the six flashbangs into the pockets of his dust, he was surprised and pleased to see a couple gas grenades in the pouch too. After Wolf said his piece Ash added,“Well I betcha they have a lookout in one the tall building to alert them to what’s goin on. That’d be the saloon, the jail and the bank. If we split up we can cover um all. We take out the lookout and then that’ll leave the ambushers blind to what’s going on in town. We might even be able to spot’um from up there too. I’ll take the jail cuz I been in there and I have a feeling there may be a not so sweet girly up there gunn’in for us. Winnie’s brother’s a deputy now so she’d be able to get in. There’s a bit of open ground to get there, hopefully the dark’ll help me slipp’in on it. There’s a back door so I try that. Wolf’s been to the bank so he knows it too. That leaves the saloon, I know ya ain’t been there Andrew but it’s easy to get in and get to the roof and Wolf can show the way over to it. If we go on foot we won’t draw much attention. I’ll slip back in and ask Doc if he’ll talk to the Tong, they trust him and he’ll know where they’ve gone. I’ll ask him to tell um if say we say Miss Willow they’ll know we’re not the bad guys. If ya got a communicator put’er on vibrate an key it three time for help, I’ll give it a single after so you know it’s me, Wolf you can bump it twice and Andrew you give it an extra three. That’ll let us know where we’re needed to let a hand. “Ash waited for Wolf’s and Andrew’s confirmation that they agreed.

Is there a back door to the jail or just a street side entrance? Are there stairs out side or inside, Ash would know the building having been sheriff for a bit. He'd know how to get to the roof. Ash will sneak along the back of buildings on main street using them as cover, going around the street side is too open.
