Re: [HOE] "Apocalypse Now" Scenario, stones weakness
Yeah, but see the trick IS to kill him in a 1 round combat; If it is long &
dragged out, Stone may sense he's losing & bug out; if things aren't going
his way, he'll just ghost & be gone. Stone's undoing is his arrogance &
comtempt for others. If someone were to call him out in a duel, he'd
inwardly laugh, do a few ridicules/overawes, etc, & then drill the poor sap
through both eyeballs. That's when our hero-to-be plugs him between the
eyes & Stone's last "words" are nothing more than a shocked "How'd he do
THAT?" look on his face. Like I said, it'd be hard, but I'd make that one
way to kill him--you have to endure the contests of wills, outdraw him, &
hit him in the head; preferably more than once.
Either that or during the gunfight, the hero-to-be yells, "Now!" & one of
this cronies activates the ghost trap & then confronts the town mayor with
"Okay, that'll be four thousand for the trapping, two thousand for
containment, oh, & the cost of replacing my soiled pants. Will that be
Visa, or Mastercard?"
