Viewer Brendan's players seem to have stumbled into a tricky situation, and he's come to the Pulp Gamer Crew for help!
[My players] have taken captive a man in control of a horde of aliens who have been devastating a ship. The aliens are way too powerful to fight as a group but because the man needs to be brought in alive...The only thing stopping the aliens from tearing the group apart is that the group can take the leader out with one shot before his aliens would attack. We're at a stand off, the villain has no motive to keep them alive if they released them and doesn't want to be taken to the authorities and so will not let them take him off the ship without a fight.
We put our best GMs to the task this week, and also consult a certain figure of the industry who might have some advice of his own...
