Encounter 2: The Attack
All
"One moment all is quiet and peaceful, then suddenly the silence is
broken by a series of explosions. Wild yelling fills the air and
gunfire can be heard. After a few moments an alarm starts blaring, only
to be abruptly silenced seconds later."
El Gato
"A whole wall seems to explode into the room, bringing in fire and
smoke. Filled beakers explode, showering you in glass and liquid. The
cats go wild with terror -- a short lived terror as the roof caves in
on you all."
Peter Pan
"You stumble out of bed and look out a porthole. Not much to be seen
from your vantage point. There seems to be smoke coming from somewhere.
Wait. Now you see a couple of sentries escorting away the couple living
at the next boat. They're Japanese soldiers."
Kid Invincible
"Running over a hill, you see that the Island City Military Research
Center is under attack. Two buildings are smoking, Japanese soldiers
are running everywhere. They seem to have caught the garrison by
surprise, because you don't see too much resistance from the base
defenders."
Rad, the
Radiation Man
"You feel the radiation energy coursing through your body. Then an
explosion shakes the whole room. Holly looks up, alarm in her face.
Suddenly the wall behind Holly explodes, flinging her to the ground.
The ceiling collapses over her. With a fierce whine, the RadiaCyclotron
floods your body with radiation moments before it goes silent. You're
still strapped into the machine and you don't feel too good all of the
sudden. Then you black out."

Game Master Notes
After a brief fight the base will be secured. Prisoners will be moved
to the Barracks (soldiers) or the Administration Building (other base
personnel). Twelve soldiers have been detailed to round up the boat
people so they don't call for help.
The first hero to attack will be engaged by Sumo, the second by Tsunami
or a half-dozen soldiers. The objective is to capture the heroes to
take them back to Japan along with the research data. During this
battle this is a good time to have a couple of people be put in danger.
For Peter Pan it will be a girl in a burning boat. For Kid Invincible
it will be a civilian next to him as the wall collapses on them both.
The first hero to attack will be engaged by Sumo and two soldiers, the
second by Tsunami (and two soldiers) or a dozen soldiers. The objective
is to capture the heroes to take them back to Japan along with the
research data. During this battle this is a good time to have a couple
of people be put in danger. For Peter Pan it will be a girl in a
burning boat. For Kid Invincible it will be a civilian next to him as
the wall collapses on them both.
Should the heroes defeat Sumo have Tsunami make an entrance if she
hasn't been seen yet. If both super villains are defeated the Japanese
soldiers will flee back to their landing craft or they will surrender.
Note that the soldiers' combined firepower is still quite formidable
should the heroes want to pursue the soldiers. |
