You are VAPOR, sent to the desert planet of KHEPRI in the search of water for your reclusive civilization. After being saved by Kheprite locals, BUREL and LORA, you now head to Burel's home. Unfortunately, you find yourselves attacked by a small group of RAIDERS.

Deciding you can't shoot either of your targets, you do the next sensible thing. Putting Burel's LASER NAGANT away, you leap towards the RAIDER BUGGY DRIVER. The distance between Burel's hovertruck and the RAIDER BUGGY was short enough for you to make the jump and kick the RAIDER BUGGY DRIVER on the side of his head, knocking him out. However, your landing has made you sit awkwardly on the driver's seat and lose control of the buggy, dropping behind Burel's hovertruck and into the RAIDER HOVERTRUCK, making its GUNNER lose a bit of balance and stop firing momentarily.
You see the situation and think to yourself "This it it! I can take down these two guys now!" You take the gun of the unconscious RAIDER BUGGY DRIVER and set your helmet into COMBAT MODE, which is almost the same as RECON MODE in function (and visuals) but targets the enemies and shows how much of a chance you have of hitting them. Both the RAIDER HOVERTRUCK GUNNER and DRIVER have an 80 and 75% chance to get hit, respectively. But before you can pull the trigger, you visor has not targeted an ARTILLERY SHELL coming from the sky, most likely launched by the RAIDER HALFTRACK who is at the very back.
The ARTILLERY SHELL has a 30% chance to be hit, but its chance slowly increases as it descends to your location. And you have only one magazine in your gun, which may not be enough to take out all your targets. You try to desperately think of a plan.
>Fire at the RAIDER HOVERTRUCK GUNNER AND DRIVER, hopefully getting out of the way of the ARTILLERY SHELL at the last second.
>Fire at the ARTILLERY SHELL and think of another way to deal with the RAIDERS behind you.
>Move out of the way from the ARTILLERY SHELL, sacrificing your chance to attack the RAIDERS

>Slam on the brakes before jumping out of the buggy to hopefully crash the hover truck and dodge the artillery.

Storing your GUN in your M.M. UNIT, you slam on the RAIDER BUGGY's brakes, stopping it dead in its tracks. You then evacuate the vehicle as the RAIDER HOVERTRUCK crashes into it, tearing it asunder. The crash makes the RAIDER HOVERTRUCK lose control, swerving and crashing into the dunes with its passengers still inside. You also avoid the artillery strike in the process, keeping you out from harm's way.
Watching the spectacle as you lift yourself, you slowly get up. "Amazing..." you whisper out in amazement at the destruction you have caused. You then hear rumbling behind you, and it's getting louder. You turn around, saying "What is-" before getting cut off as you suddenly get hit by a strong, fast moving force followed by being carried away with it. You look and realize you's stuck to the RAIDER HALFTRACK's front shield.
Thankfully, your suit's strong DAMAGE RESISTANCE takes the impact of the RAIDER HALFTRACK running into you. But now you are practically stuck to the RAIDER HALTRACK's grill armor.

Not having a good grip on the RAIDER HALFTRACK, you try to shoot its window open by unloading your GUN at it. Unfortunately unlike the RAIDER HOVERTRUCK, this RAIDER HALFTRACK's window is bulletproof. Before you could take out your BATPOON, the RAIDER HALFTRACK immediately stops, throwing you a few feet ahead and back into the sand. As you sit up, you see the RAIDER HALFTRACK facing you menacingly before it goes back into motion, attempting to run you over again.
Since your GUN is now empty, you quickly gauge your offensive options. Aside from your BATPOON, you still have your SLIP SHELLS as well. You also consider running away from the RAIDER HALFTRACK to be an option to quickly buy some time, although your low MOBILITY may only buy you extra seconds.

Take out Batpoon and use special move: HOMERUN on halftrack.
Sorry for the lack of updates, guys. Unfortunately, IRL stuff has happened suddenly and I have to take a little hiatus until everything blows over. The next update's gonna be in a new thread when that happens. I'll post on my twitter when I will update. You can still catch me on /qst/'s discord tho.
Again, sorry for the sudden hiatus. Thanks for being a good audience despite my abysmal update speed.
