Multi-Girl Bernadette had been listening to Dr. Macedon talk a bit about what she knew from prior Claremont groups that had been pulled through time at the Magic Mesa when the group came upon what appeared to be a fight between two groups. Looking at the group in uniforms, the redhead noted the symbols on their shirts. "Speakin' o’ World War II, that lot seems ta be inspired by the Nazi die Übersoldaten an' Superior." She stated, point towards the group with weapons and the uniforms with the S logo. "Pretty good odds they are the bad guys here." She added as she started running towards the group. Her duplicate held back for the moment, keeping an eye on the area, but ready to move into action as well.

History check for Bernadette to see if the uniforms are familiar: 27 with a Nat 20

@Spacefurry sorry for the delay, he gets a 22, so picks up his third bruise. Please make your IC post. @RocketLord Stormcrow is up!

Okay, everyone gets a HP as a fiat the stealthy arrival of Madrigal Martinet and she kill's Bernadette's duplicate. Going to keep the same initiative order to keep things moving. The Elite Omegadrones are NOT minions, so attack rolls needed on them. Round One 28 El Gato (Unharmed) 21 Kismet (Unharmed) 19 Elite Omegadrones (6 all Unharmed) 18 Cerebral 4 HP (Unharmed) 17 Madrigal Martinet (Unharmed) 16 Starshine 5 HP (Unharmed) 15 Multi-Girl 5 HP (Unharmed) 15 La Puma Negra 4 HP (Unharmed) 15 Bruiser (Unharmed) 12 Neko 3 HP (Unharmed) 12 Copper Knight (Unharmed) 11 Jotunn 5 HP (injured, bruised) 6 Network (Unharmed) 6 Omegadrones (15 attacking over 500’ away, caught in Neko’s obscure; 6 on group) 4 Archer (Unharmed) 4 Cerebellum (Unharmed)

GM As the massive robot powered down and the last Omegadrone in the area fell, a moment of quiet seemed to fall over the area. The police were still getting civilians out of the nearby buildings and down into the sewers through the opening Owain had made and towards safety. And the sounds of explosions could still be heard in the distance, primarily from the downtown area where dozens (if not hundreds) of small figures could be seen flying through the skies above the city. Archer moved forward and over to where Kesmit had landed the sky-cycle she was piloting. "If you all want to run, you can." He stated, glancing over towards the teens. "But we need to stop just reacting, and start picking our targets and striking." He glanced over towards the city. "As long as the portals are open and allowing more of these troops in, we will constantly be on the defensive. We need to find a way to shut down those portals." Turning, his gaze swept over the members of FORCE Ops before focusing back on the Claremont teens. "We are going to go and see if we can find a way to shut those down. You all are a lot more capable than I would have expected at your age, we could certainly use your help." Bernadette glanced over towards the others, hesitant for a moment. But before she could speak, a tall figure rouse up behind her duplicate and in a quick movement plunged an energy sword into the duplicate’s back. The duplicate arched slightly as she let out a brief cry of pain that was cut off as the end of the energy blade pierced out the front of her chest. The original Bernadette’s body went tense, and she staggered a step, almost as if she had been hit herself. In a swift motion, the figure pulled the blade free and the duplicate collapsed lifelessly to the ground and then disappeared. The figure was a six-foot-tall woman wearing a long red military style coat with gold braid and brown, thigh high leather boots. She had long raven hair that flowed out of a golden helmet that covered her face. Taking a step forward, she pointed her energy sword at the original Bernadette. "Will you disappear as well when I cut out your heart?" "Kill them all!" She yelled as six Omegadrones in black armor flew into view, followed by a number of normal Omegadrones.

Okay, they all Fail the Reflex check to avoid the blast. And the all fail the toughness save and are out. @Avenger Assembled

Okay, time for what is likely the last round: Round Five 26 Paper 3 HP (unharmed) 25 Stormcrow 6 HP (unharmed) 19 Shadowborne 2 HP (bruised x2) 18 Ghule 2 HP (injured x2) 16 Sureshot (unharmed, bound and helpless) 16 Multi-Girl 1 HP (bruised x2) 15 Legion (unharmed x5 / Original near Visor staggered, bruised, daze, prone / one near Ghule bruised 2 / one near Ghule, bruised x3, prone / one near Ghule bruised x3, prone / 1 near SC bruised 2, staggered, prone) 13 Shift 0 HP (injured x2) 10 Visor (bruised x2) 10 Star Khan (unharmed) 9 Nightscale 4 HP (bruised x4) @Spacefurry Paper is up !

Okay, DC 31 toughness save (due to the auto crit): 23, Nope, she is out cold. (Is actually a 25, as I forgot she is slightly toughness shifted, but didn't matter anyway, still out)

Actually, yes, you are correct, you can use the tail to deliver the coup de grace as a full round action then (using your +11 STR bonus)

So, looking at the build for the dragon, you would need the Improved Grapple feat to be able to deliver a coup de grace yourself while maintaining your grapple (which is a free action) or to use the rending claw to attack her. But, you can apply damage by just squeezing her (ie doing your +11 strength bonus in damage for a DC 26 toughness save)

GM Shift manages to knock the Legion standing next to Visor off her feet and sending her flying backward a short distance. The moment Shift struck that Legion, another duplicate appeared next to Visor, ready to join the melee. Visor watched as thing continued to go worse for his team, focusing up on where Nightscale was still holding Mindfire, he fired another powerful beam of energy at the dragon. The blast stuck Nightscale squarely in the torso, causing some damage, but not putting him out of the fight. Meanwhile, Star Khan looked over to where the Legion Shift had hit landed. "Interesting." He commented, flying over towards the downed Legion. "You appear to be the source of these duplicates. So dealing with you should deal with them all." He said as he tried to punch the dazed Legion. However, at the last moment she managed to roll to the side, so Star Khan's powerful punch only grazed her. But it was enough to cause yet another duplicate to pop into existence nearby. Up in the air, Mindfire manage to turn so she could see Nightscale from where he held her in his claw. "Time to burn!" She yelled as psychic flames formed around the dragon, causing excruciating pain as the telekinetic force tried to fully grab ahold of him. But the dragon was able to pull free from the psychic energy, even as it cause a bit more damage, still maintaining his hold on Mindfire in the process.

Okay, going to work on my GM post. (Star Khan's hit on Legion created another duplicate as well, as he failed to knock her out). Updated Order/Status: Round Four 26 Paper 3 HP (unharmed) 25 Stormcrow 6 HP (unharmed) 19 Shadowborne 2 HP (bruised 2) 18 Ghule 2 HP (injured 2) 16 Sureshot (unharmed, bound and helpless) 16 Multi-Girl 1 HP (bruised x2) 15 Legion (unharmed x5 / one near Visor staggered, bruised, daze, prone / one near Ghule bruised 2 / one near Ghule, bruised x3, prone / one near Ghule bruised x3, prone / 1 near SC bruised 2, staggered, prone) 13 Shift 0 HP (injured 2) 10 Visor (bruised x2) 10 Star Khan (unharmed) 10 Mindfire (unharmed, -2 toughness drain (round 3), bound and helpless) 9 Nightscale 4 HP (bruised 4) Nightscale is up (and still has ahold of Mindfire) @Nerdzul

Yes, that it is. Let's see if Mindfire can make a Concentration roll: 22 she does. She will use her Perception Telekinesis (Move Object) to grapple Nightscale: she gets a 37. As it is Damaging, that is also a DC 26 toughness save. @Nerdzul

GM Star Khan regarded the scene before them as he listened to Doktor Archeville's makeshift plan. "That seems the most viable plan at the moment." He responded in a agreement before flying as fast as he could down toward the Xeno to drop Starshot off to get the spacecraft airborne once more. Then the young Zultasian quickly climbed back up to where the Sarcota were starting to swarm towards the edge of the field of solar collection arrays. He took a moment to study the group as Starshot got the Xeno airborne, looking for the best means of trying to guide the somewhat chaotic swarm of massive creatures the direction they wanted them to go. "I will start with some low powered blasts on the Sarcota on the lower left side, trying to direct them inward and up. Starshot should use the Xeno to try and do the same on the right side. We need to keep them together and get them to want to depart the atmosphere back into space."

Okay, sorry for letting this idle for so long. For my GM post, Star Khan is going to try Kn: Tactics to get an idea how to best try to "herd" the Sarcota: bad roll, but still a 22 @Supercape If Starshot is going to follow along with the ideas from Star Khan, give me a piloting check, otherwise, le me know what he might want to do. @Dr Archeville Doc, let me know what Archeville is planning to do.

Okay, as Shift hits the Legion over near Visor and knocks her down, another duplicate appears. Getting the order back up for convenience. Round Four 26 Paper 3 HP (unharmed) 25 Stormcrow 6 HP (unharmed) 19 Shadowborne 2 HP (bruised 2) 18 Ghule 2 HP (injured 2) 16 Sureshot (unharmed, bound and helpless) 16 Multi-Girl 1 HP (bruised x2) 15 Legion (unharmed x4 / one near Visor staggered, dazed, prone / one near Ghule bruised 2 / one near Ghule, bruised x3, prone / one near Ghule bruised x3, prone / 1 near SC bruised 2, staggered, prone) 13 Shift 0 HP (injured 2) 10 Visor (bruised x2) 10 Star Khan (unharmed) 10 Mindfire (unharmed, -2 toughness drain (round 3), bound and helpless) 9 Nightscale 5 HP (bruised 2) Visor will shot an energy blast at Nightscale, hitting with a 28. So DC 26 toughness save for Nightscale @Nerdzul (don't forget your two bruises, and you have lots of HPs) Star Khan will move over to the Legion Shift just knocked down and try to knock her out, because of the +4 to hit for her now being prone, he will power attack -4 atk/+4 dam: He hits with a 27, DC 33 toughness save for Legion: 29!, so she only takes a bruise. Will wait to for Mindfire's action to see how Nightscale fairs on his toughness save.

Okay, @Avenger Assembled Patriot is up!

GM Gaian Knight easily shrugged off the attack from the four-armed alien, even as two other opponents made their way into the hanger as well. The first was a seven foot tall figure with a massive, muscular build. Moon-Moth recognized the figure as Uqruks, a Kovald heavy-worlder who had been another of the old Star Khan's bodyguard following the Incursion. Uqruks took a quick look around the hanger and then started forward towards the group of heroes gathered in the center of the hanger, readying a massive club as he did so. The other figure was another Justicar, who followed after Uqruks and leveled his power pike towards Justicar Vor'an. "It is time you learned the price for following the young pretender." He called out firing a blast of energy at Vor'an. The blast struck the young Justicar solidly, causing him to take a step back as he grunted in pain and clutched his side where the blast had hit. Vor'an seemed badly hurt, but not completely out of the fight yet.

Okay, two more bad guys will appear on screen, stepping into the hanger. One is unable to do more, as he had to get up from being pone. The other, Justicar Ca'lan, has a standard action, and will attack Justicar Vor'an, hitting with a 30. DC 25 toughness save: 14 about as bad as he can roll, so Vor'an is staggered and dazed. Updated initiative order Round Three 67 Velocity 1 HP (bruised, prone) 29 Yass’ir (unharmed, DC 27 toughness save on round 4 (due to secondary effect), prone) 26 Ghost 3 HP (Unharmed) 21 Hounds (3 telekinetic, 1 telepath all BOUND: one telekinetic bruised, staggered; 1 telekinetic Slowed and bruised 2 (round 2), 1 telekinetic bruised 2 and prone; telepaths bruised 2 and prone) 20 Boran Lieutenants (2 in hanger, both BOUND, 1 staggered, bruised and prone (on Vor’an), 1 staggered, bruised and Paralyzed (round 2)) 20 Hunters (5 in hanger,: Bound: 1 staggered, 1 bruised, 1 bruised 2 and slowed (round 2); one (unharmed), 1 bruised and prone) 18 Tal’gar (unharmed, prone) outside bridge 18 Gaian Knight 2 HP (bruised, prone) 17 Tough Aliens (2 outside bridge, prone) 16 Galvanic 3 HP (Unharmed) 14 Justicar Vor'an (Staggered, dazed) 13 Moon-Moth 3 HP (bruised 2) 13 Mare (not prone) 13 Traveller 0 HP (Unharmed) 13 Uqurks (Unharmed) 12 Justicar Ca’lan (Unharmed) 10 Artificer 1 HP (Unharmed, prone) 7 Patriot II 2 HP (Unharmed, prone) 6 Waymaker (unharmed) 5 Troopers (0 currently conscious in hanger, 6 in engine room, all prone) And @Dr Archeville Artificer is up!

Multi-Girl Bernadette had to stop herself from laughing at Vueriz's statement about being more compatible with Baz. After all, the redhead was not completely sure whether the small alien had intended to say it like that, or if it was due to not understanding the possible meanings of the phrase, or just an issue with her translator. Dr. Macedon’s response about them all staying together helped her focus on the more immediate issues. "Aye, I agree with Dr. Macedon, an' Baz, we all stay together." The Irish teen responded. "But…if fer any reason we do need ta split up, havin' my duplicate in a different group would be best." "As then both groups would have a way ta communicate." The duplicate continued, tapping the side of her head and then pointing over toward the original Bernadette with a smile. Bernadette had just been about the answer Dr. Macedon's question when there was the sound of sirens and then an explosion flashed in the distance, the sound of it faint but clearly audible. "Well….I think we have a clue where we might need ta start." Bernadette stated as she prepared to start heading in the direction of the explosion.

Multi-Girl Bernadette watched as Leon dealt with the ninjas that were visible down among the crowd, but then two more dropped down from the rafters to go after him. For a moment she was ready to go over to help him, but then realized two others were backstage fighting her duplicate that was with Summer and the rest of the band. Deciding that Leon as alright for the moment, and had Neko and Charlie watching over above, the redhead moved all the way backstage, the moment she was out of view, she was moving much quicker than a normal person could run as she caught up with her duplicate. Coming up behind one of the ninjas, Bernadette delivered a solid backhand to the side of the figure's head, knocking the ninja to the ground and unconscious.

As mentioned on Discord, right now the temporal barrier around it is effectively PLX, although that can change.

@Heritage Yes, that is good enough to hit. DC 27 toughness save right? She gets a 17 on her toughness save, so staggered and dazed!

Well, it is a minion, so there was no attack roll need. Sadly, it just makes its grapple check with a 32 as well, so avoids the grapple.
