>>6132513You slam the M44 buttstock into the ghoul's mouth and crack the late Mr Leonard in the teeth (3). It's audible, as the incisors fold and snap off, and he get's a throatful of bicuspid fragments and the slightest trace of cosmoline. The rifle drops to the ground.
[If my 5th+4th <=10, the rifle clatters harmlessly to the ground. If more the rifle goes off]
The strike to the teeth is a stunning blow, and he staggars back as you draw out your pistol (2) and open fire (5) times, striking him, finally in the face.
[If my 5th+3rd <=10, one of the discharged rounds breaks a window, and punches through a shutter letting in some sunlight. If more, it also ruins some bottled water.]
Mr Leonard, he didn't have his ID on him, so his last name is unknown to you, he was for all his dispair a sociable man. He even left a note, in the event that someone found his remains.
[If my 4th+3rd <=10, Leonard's note details the location of his stash outside the gas station. If more it is just his sappy final regards.]
You pick up the still lit zippo lighter (1) and having double checked that the corpse it really a corpse, you look around the interior of the locked up station.
[If my 3rd+2nd <=10, the gas station has been sitting locked since the outbreak began and is unlooted. If more, it has no snacks, cigarettes, and almost no water.]
You look up and down the isles, and check the back rooms, putting together a rough map of the interior.
You also find where Leonard was sitting when he shot himself. His revolver, a silly cowbow action 357 magnum, is laying on the ground.
[If my 3rd+1st <=10, he had a full cylinder before topping himself off. If more he maimed himself with his last bullet.]
You have enough light to make a full inventory.
[If my 2nd+1st <=10, Leonard had a searchable pack with him. If more you find 3 corpses which he dispatched before ending himself.]
You have 5 actions, all searches will succeed
