The Commander laughs unabashedly. It is a condescending sound, full and loud, that bounces around the room. "I didn't expect that out of you, Gilles. What are you suggesting, then? That 'Comrade Zhao' be let loose? There are a number of reasons why we cannot let that happen. I didn't want to be the villain here so early, but..." She reaches into her coat, pulls out a pistol, and immediately fires two shots at Gilles' legs.

Commander Sheridan Readies her pistol as a Free Action, then takes the Semi-Auto Burst Full Action. Her attack is a success, and she fires two shots, one at each of Gilles' legs. The shot to his right leg would deal 7 damage after Toughness Bonus if not Dodged, and the shot to his left would deal a whopping 22. Due to the Commander's talents, Gilles suffers from a -20 penalty to Dodge, so his TN is only 18. It is, however, a nonlethal weapon, so he need not fear dying - the worst critical result he can suffer from is for 5 Impact damage.

Rolls are here, here, and here.
