>>5841558>>5841562>>5841563>>5843018>Rolled 88 (1d100)>manoeuvre closer, destroy turrets>Scan the station with the Scientific Vessel QM: I will give you the IFA Might +3 and Knowledge +9 on this roll, as you attempt to use the science ship telemetry sensors to aid targeting of the Armed Merchant Cruiser guns. The modifier difficulty of the outcome is then set by your roll 76 = 88 - 3 - 9
00-19 Salvoes of detonating submunition payloads burst in conical cloud patterns within the vicinity of the orbital station turrets guarding the docking bay. The entire station disintegrates into glowing fragments spiralling into the gravity well of the planet, as it burns up with atmospheric ablation in uncontrolled descent through the shock layer
20-49 Debris from frangible rounds and the annular blast pattern of continuous rod warheads shatters station life support and oxygen. Blackness and vacuum pours in
50-69 You destroy the rocket turrets, but the station dock and berthing mechanisms are ruined. You will need to attempt manual entry through hard vacuum into the station
70-75 A stray rocket arcs through CIWS fire and impacts against the Armed Merchant Cruiser Hull
76 The erratic trajectory of a station defense rocket slams against the viewing bay of the Expeditionary Research Vessel
77-99 Your precise manipulation of signal returns from reflector beam waveguides of the Cassegrain antenna, swivelling upon its altazimuth mount, accurately guides precision targeting of armour-piercing sabot rounds from batteries of networked multi-gun emplacements on target, with support from electro-optical tracking and programmed fuse burst as the rounds exit the gunbarrels
