Before I go, is there any point in me making any more heal checks or trying to save Tristan, or is he just flat out dead with no chance in h*ll of him surviving?

It is pretty obvious to Volsung that there is little more to be done for him. If you had him in a hospital in a sterile environment... you might be able to save him... but here, not so much.
I dislike outright killing a character, but at this point... it really is just for the sake of logistical smoothness for the game. Especially in battles (as it is presently), it becomes a pain to try to get an action for each laid out. And if they aren't taking actions... then they're taking up space.

Then the same's probably true with Hindrance, given the fact that he also got hit with a direct hit from a cannon to the head, rather than the chest. Last question before I go and post, how do I remove the AI's?

To avoid harming the sanity of the DM I can no longer:
* Cast flesh to stone on a annoying Druid
** Cast Rock to mud on a Druid statue
*** Scoop mud into little ceramic pots
**** Plant tree's in individual ceramic pots
***** Claim that I have helped them become one with nature
Doc: Yeah, it looked pretty dire for Hinderance as well. That cannon's damage is mean... and he was already messed up from that needler grunt. It's okay, it's more dramatic this way. What would war movies like Black Hawk Down or Saving Private Ryan be without some of the heroes dying?
And yes, the AI are stored on a disk-like device that plugs into a port at the base of the skull... in the back, just beneath the helmet.
Erik: Exactly. Your characters wouldn't simply walk away without doing everything they could. A player knows the difference, but their character generally does not. Good call!

Yeah... I have the actual combat order on page 9 of this thread that I have been updating. In the future, I will put it in the first post in this thread.
Sorry for the confusion, because of both sides having to wait for the dropship to open up... everyone ended up in the same initiative order. That, coupled with me trying to post actions and rolls for seventeen individuals... it got a little hectic. Once again, losing some of the extra characters should ease that a bit, I am hoping.
But it is your turn, Doc. And yes, Erik... you go right in the middle of the sh!tstorm. If you guys want to, you can post your actions ahead of time and I will fit them into the "narrative" of the combat!

Dum de dum, more attack rolls. Last two are from the needles that I hit the Elite with last round. (1d20+9)[11] (1d20+7)[16] (1d20+5)[6] (2d4)[5] (2d4)[4] (2d4)[5] (2d4)[3] (2d4)[5]

I'm sure that post was ahead of time anyway, if its not, then I'll post again.
However, isn't it just 1 elite and 1 Hunter left? (That may still be considered a sh!tstorm, but it's less so).

Erik: It was ahead of time, yes. You're good for this round. It is just one Elite and one Hunter... the "sh!tstorm" was referring to the earlier confusion of everyone going right at the same time.

Would a search check or a spot check be most applicable here? The difference between the two has always been fuzzy to me, so here's both of them just in case. Mein gott. Thirty-four on the search check, I hope I didn't waste it.
Search (1d20+14)[34] Spot (1d20+4)[19]

You didn't say if Onyx-1 has given me permision (Assuming so for now), also, I take it that the bars/pipes can't be crawled across. Post later today or tomorrow.
Ok, will need a tiny touch of jets at the end. I would prefer to post myself but you can (DM) If you want, Gnomere is basically working Trajectory, Iaoch Servoes, Argyle the long run up and jump, followed by a tiny bounce of thrust when he realises he wont make it.

Bit of a random thought, but if it would make your life easier, I would probably be able to play two characters at once. I've had to do so a few times IRL, and Q said he'd be fine with one of us RPing his character for him. Dunno about Sam, but I don't think his opinion on that particular subject matters all that much at this point.
