Lucky and unlucky

Ravenshade here with another story. This time the crew and I were playing a custom adventure, tracking down the handlers of the Sathar agents in the first scenario. We'd tracked them to an asteroid in Vince's starship Aphelion, and were preparing to enter their base and attack. We made it through the airlock, and managed to clear the first room. Raven burst through the door of the second room and threw a tangler grenade at the first person he saw. He hit and tangled three enemies, and the other three members of the party fired at the one remaining agent. He got knocked woozy and was down to 3 STA, so Raven decided that instead of using his perfectly good weapons, he would pick up a chair and hit the poor guy with it. He successfully picked up the chair, but then I rolled a 99. Raven tripped over one of the tangled enemies and threw the chair over the guy's head. Vince saw what happened, rolled his eyes, and zapped the guy with an electrostunner. Going into the next room, Raven saw an enemy at the far end of the corridor, took aim with his bow (his primary weapon in the early days) and fired. The shot, against impossible odds, hit the agent... with a roll of 01. The agent took one look at the arrow in his knee and fainted. Octavia stayed back to move and guard the prisoners, Vince went up one level to look in that room, and Ronin followed Raven into the control room, where a Yazarian agent was messing with the computer, trying to destroy the data. Raven burst into the room and smacked him with an electric sword. He went down in a heap and promptly surrendered. Meanwhile, Vince, our main technician, went up the stairs with a pistol in each hand. He peeked into the room and promptly slammed the door just in time to block a fragmentation grenade. He then fired around the edge of the door at the three agents firing at him. Vince radioed for backup, and his robot SN-36 and Octavia came running and rolling to the stairway, firing at the agents as well. Eventually, the agents were subdued, and Vince had managed to critical hit one of them against impossible odds, as well as doze one of them. This was the first time that Vince seriously surprised me with this sort of gunplay, but it wouldn't be the last...
