Sentinel Comics RPG Core Rulebook

Scene 1
270
The scene begins with robot “cops”, a group
of 2 Skeeterbots for each hero, and half as many
Megalopolis Police Officers as heroes (rounded
down). Let a hero who has been specifically looking
out for danger kick off the action order with the first
turn. If none of them have been watching for trouble,
begin the action order with the robot cops. The first
time the environment comes up in the action order,
Mayor Baldwin and Police Commissioner Anselmo
enter the fray in a likely confusing manner, as they
turn on the heroes. They’ll be revealed as clones
over the course of the fight as they take damage
and are quickly outed as flesh-creations.
THe Environment: Outside
Press Conference
The scene occurs in the square outside City Hall,
where many dozen civilians, numerous police
officers, and several local news teams have gathered
to hear the mayor speak. The twists and threats
work against both the heroes and the opposition
in this scene.
