Argh... that's suicide.
Not only do you not get a bonus for aiming, but you get a penalty for moving forward your full 4 yards...!
Range drops to 34 yards....
Attack hits on 4 or less...
[3d6=8]
A good roll, but not good enough.
The Hilidarian...
he shoots at Fred.
He aimed, so that is +8 from the ACC of his energy rifle.
His skill is 13.
He is at -2 due to lighting.
Range + Speed mods are -7.
ROF is 3, so no bonus there.
Ugly isn't smart enough to brace the way that Marcus Kane does.
So... he hits on 12 or less.
[Energy rifle hits on 12 or less... (3d6=12)]
That is exactly *one* hit to Fred.
Fred gets a dodge....
[Dodge, 7 or less... (3d6=11)]
Fred's taking damage...
DR 30 is divided by 2 by the armor divisor. 15 DR....
[Fred takes 5d6 damage... reduced by effective DR of 15... (5d6=16)]
One measly point of damage! Heh....
Okay... maybe that wasn't suicide.
...
...
Marcus Kane just aimed and braced. (Will he aim some more or go ahead and shoot?)
Fred just moved and attacked... and has taken a total of 8 hits of damage so far....
The Hilidarian just shot, so [if I understand the rules] his aim is spoiled and he has to take a moment to keep that awesome +8 to-hit bonus.
What now...?

Marcus aims, so he'll get another +1 bonus.
Fred closes to a range of 30 yards, firing wildly...
[4 or less again... (3d6=6)]
Awesome roll...! Too bad it didn't do any good.
[12 or less to hit again... (3d6=11)]
Hmm... with a recoil of 1, that's going to be 2 hits I think.
[7 or less for dodge... (3d6=13)]
No dodge... uh oh...
2 hits... subtract 15 from each and hope they're low... (5d6=18 )]
[Damage again... (5d6=10)]
Alright... one did NONE, but the other did 3 points....
But... fortunately Fred has 12 hit points! He's taken a total of 11 hits of damage.... Wah!
Marcus Kane said he'd fire... let's end this!
Marcus is at 50 yards which is -8, cover/darkness is -4, ACC is 5, aiming extra is +1, bracing is +1, and AOA is +1... skill is 14....
That's still just... 10 or less...?! Uh oh....
[10 or less, please... (3d6=5)]
He takes three phaser-bolts to the chest and face... flipping backwards in a bizarre summersault, slinging his weapon to the side...!
Whew!
Meanwhile... Skexis, Rokerig, and Captain Jack continue to run across the dunes following the trail of the riding lizards....

Marcus seeing Fred moving closer to that position says to Rokering sister. Hands her his phaser,"Stay here and keep a look out for anyone sneeking up on you. Oh And don't shoot me when I come back...I've been shot enough in the past week!" Pulling his combat knife he creeps over to where the Hillidarians fell. If he gets there with out incident he grabs one of thier energy rifles slings it over his shoulder and drags one the closest Hilidarin back to his previous postion telling Fred to do the same if he is able.
Skexis, Rokerig, and Captain Jack crest a large dune and find...
a riding lizard with what looks like a dozen energy blasts on its side! It is sprawled in the sand, apparently dead.
...
Meanwhile as Marcus Kane grabs a nice Energy Rifle, he starts over towards the nearest Hilidarian. He notices... some sort of communicator on its belt. There's a light on it that's flashing...!

Marcus replies in a muffled Hilidarian voice (did he hear the Hilidairian talk?) "All Clear". He tries to pinpoint the location of the incoming call (if he can and it is possible with a communicator using electronics operation communications). He will look towards Fred..."We need to prop these guys up so they look concious. " He props his guy up like he is leaning with it's back against the rock. He puts the energy rifle in its hands and looks for a side arm on either one of them. Then he tries to find some where close to hide.
Note: He did all this before he started dragging the Hilidarian back to his previous postion. He will leave the Hilidarian where it was.

The voice replies: "I'll be right there."
[9 or less Electronics Op(Comm) -2 penalty for familiarty w/ equipment... (3d6=15)]
You have no idea where the other communicator is calling from.
The Hilidarians are propped up.

Meanwhile, Rokerig, Captain Jack, and Skexis come upon several more dead riding lizards... and then see some sort of skimmer/transport blasting into the sky overhead above them and heading back towards the camp!
