If anyone knows about the vulnerabilities of the low wave, I'll go for an aim at the chest.
If not, Grimmie's working on past knowledge, and will go for his noggin.

Someone made a SLA info roll, you know that the brain is in the chest.
Grimmie, you can fire when ready, but the longer you wait the less time you'll have to shoot at it (unless it stops and/or turns round). At the speed it's moving you reckon you've got a round and a half (ie, phase 3 on round 2) before it vanishes behind the machinery. Incidentally, that's about the time Dirk and Eraser will see it.

I'll pop it at the last second - phase two, round two. How many aims does that get me?

Are you guys waiting for me to blast it, or are you gonna do something in the other phases?

I can't see it yet, so I thought I'd let you take a potshot at it.
Give Bertha a proper tryout!

Assuming he's in short range for me (150m) I'll be using my laser painter.
Rifle
+1 Laser sight, +3 Aims, +2 Size (>3m)
1,7,+6 = <b>14</b>
Glad I had those modifiers.
Two 12.7mm Standards.

That gets its attention. It turns round looking confused and enraged.
Phase 3?

Dont the other two see it on this round, or have I stopped it?

It's stopped, but they might want to move towards it.
Well if they do they can start retrospectively. On 3 it looks around for you. Its little brain currently only seems to be working in two dimensions and it doesn't look up, so it just stands there.

My hide roll was pish, but I rolled tactics to look for a good point around me to take another shot from, and I'll try and go there silently as possible seeing as he can't see me yet.
Tactics
9,2 +7 = 18
Sneak
6,1 +4 = 11
I suppose I'll have to wait till phase 4 to do so though. Boo.

There's not much in the way of strategic vantage points, the walkway only stretches the width of the window in the control room.
Anyone else for 4?

They're not far off, say 1 of next round.
Phase 5. The Low-Wave spots Grimmie tiptoeing off on high and starts making towards the steps (which are incidentally far too small for it to climb).

Oh flip. I'll turn around and bring to bear.

Round 3 Phase 1
The Low Wave is lumbering towards the metal steps below Grimmie.
