>Kill the warband commander: >Break the Looking Glass (this permanently destroys the mirror)>Use mirror pieces to repair Periscope Rifle>Fire the weaponNo roll is needed to automatically snipe and kill the commander. I will instead make a morale roll to see if the remaining armed riders scatter; you believe the likelihood would be in your favour, with at most one or two warriors remaining, but there is a small chance that the entire warband will regroup in a berserk frenzy for a massed attack. Were this to occur, you think it is likely that the riders would be forced to dismount as they search the trenches for your sniping position. QM: importantly if you choose this option, any survivors remaining will not be aware of your position, because you fired the periscope rifle from one of the many trenches in this area
OR:
QM: this plan
>>5684402>Make a dramatic appearance out of some crater by using the fumes and bright light from the camera is not bad at all, I will definitely allow it! And well done for remembering the camera flash, hehe. The intent appears to be to use the flash pyrotechnics into distracting and frightening the warband riders whilst you make an escape.
If you choose this plan, you will have to make a very fast escape once enacted. There is a chance that you will escape before the riders can even react. You have some time to prepare beforehand, so decide: (this affects the roll probabilities)
>fast getaway:>mount horse with iron bridle>rig the camera flash to fire, but you must leave behind the camera on its tripod afterwards (lose Instantograph camera)This option offera the most favourable escape probabilities
>slow getaway>mount horse carefully with rope harness>rig camera as above, but you can retrieve it afterwardsThis option offers a less favourable escape probability, but you will keep the Instantograph, tripod, magnesium flash powder etc. There is a higher likelihood some of the warriors will see you and open fire
QM: so to summarise (unless any anons want to modify and adapt the plan) the options are
>Fire the periscope rifle the repair breaks the Looking Glass mirror,
>>5684336>Fast horse getaway with iron bridleyou lose the Instantograph camera
>>5683350>Slow horse getaway with a rope harnesskeep all items, but higher risk of alert
QM: after you make your choice, please roll 1d6, thank you!
