Hint- cats have very potent senses of smell and vision. They are more vulnerable to smoke and other olfactory/optical irritants than most animals. JUST SAYIN', it could be distracted for two or three seconds if a big dust/smoke cloud came up around it. Be creative, guys- "shoot my weapon" makes for a boring RTD Thrive. Think about situations before you just write down something generic.

Then I guess these features bite the dust.

It's no like I have anything else to use...

Well, I'm mainly directing that towards your allies- they can't really shoot in fear of hitting you, but if they throw up a dust cloud they can distract the panther long enough for you to roll to dodge* the panther's attack.

*Couldn't pass up the opportunity.

Grif, go ahead and warn me for this off-topic post, but this smoothy is DELICIOUS! And...well, I modify my action, following Ragdoll's suggestion.
Instead of just trying to start the car, After starting the car, skid out to kick up a huge dustcloud. VROOMSCREECH!

Hey just an idea, will everyone still be awake and able to use a computer in, say, 4 hours? I wanna try a live-action version of RtD. Just a thought.

Not me, I should've been in bed an hour ago.

Oh you naughty girl!

Well it was worth a shot anyway.

Game Events:
Tyrone successfully escapes the clutches of the Giant Black Panther and Andrew finishes it off with a few hundred rounds. Tyrone pumps the air and points a finger at the bullet-peppered corpse.
"You just got TY-ROWD'D!! Hah-Haaa!"
Fiona interrupts his bask of glory, "C'mon Superman, get in the car. There's gonna be more of them."
Tyrone slouches his shoulders, pouts, and hops up onto the back of the Hummer.
Vlad manages to pull his wits together and turns the Hummer around.
The Rocket is pretty much right above them! It will arrive in 2 turns!
The time is 4:30pm.

Map: You are just East of the little base in the middle, after the horseshoe bend.


NOTE:


DRL RtD Players Google Map in conjunction with DaylightMap.com

Well, at least we're right by the base...Put the pedal to the metal and get the hell outta here; by now, I'm sure I've realized that the rocket is bad.

Im not sure what to do right now...

I'm stuck too... Can we see the rocket?

Fine...
Get in the Hummer, Reload my AUG HBAR. IF HANGING ON FOR DEAR LIFE IS REQUIRED, DO SO NOW AND IGNORE THE REST OF THIS ACTION. Repurpose the metal seat covers as plating for my Exo-suit, borrowing tools if nessicary, Hopefully attaining a +1 when taking small-arms fire.

NOT AT ALL WHAT I MEANT BY THE WAITING GAME!
Also, it's my first 1. ;__;

Did I request hyper-focus? Oh well.

"Saved your ass over there mister pants" *brofist*
Rest once again
