Good Lord my dice are atrocious.
Are you complaining at not getting a 6 or higher three times in a row? :D

Frozen Assets: Turn 3
Weapons fire for Griffin GRF-1N (Allied):
-Fires LRM-10 at Large Laser Turret (Single) (Silver Phantoms); needs 3, rolls 3: 8 Missiles Hit! Large Laser Turret (Single) (Silver Phantoms) takes 8 damage, 6/30 CF remaining. Turret Damage Threshold Exceeded! Critical Chance!
--Critical Chance in Turret Interior! One Critical Hit sustained! Turret jams!


Weapons fire for Large Laser Turret (Single) (Silver Phantoms):
-Crew repairs weapon malfunction in Large Laser.
Shouldn't they have only repaired the weapon jamming from last turn, meaning the laser should still be jammed?

Also, the streak of bad dice rolls continues: missed two more sixes, missed a four and two threes!

Frozen Assets: Turn 11

Secondary Objectives:
Objective A: Facilitate the arrest of at least 30 auctiongoers (30/30) (50,000 C-Bill Reward) (Complete!)
Objective B: Facilitate the arrest of at least 60 auctiongoers (60/60) (100,000 C-Bill Reward) (Complete!)
Objective C: Facilitate the arrest of all 100 auctiongoers (88/100) (150,000 C-Bill Reward)
Objective D: Destroy or drive off all enemy combatants (200,000 C-Bill Reward)
Maybe this is a dumb question, but are all of these rewards independent of each other? So currently 150k additional reward and 300k after getting the last 12 auctiongoers? And then a cool 500k if also destroying/driving off all enemy combatants?

All of the rewards are cumulative, so goons will receive 500,000 C-Bills for completing all secondary objectives.
Cool.

Barring extremely bad luck, all auction goers should be arrested next turn. After that, it's up to the players to decide if an extra 200k is worth the risk of facing 6 mechs.
