I've worked out what the marines look like going forward.
https://www.dndbeyond.com/profile/LesRankins/characters/16117347
You mix 1 level of rogue with the sharpshooter feat, the Archery fighting style, the RS-X7 slingshot with site and the Samurai Archetype. This gives you an attack from cover 300 feet away. +4 to hit with advantage damage 2d6+13
OOC: Do we have any of those Marines with us at the barricade - they look pretty sweet!
And that seems like a pretty good capture of what I imagine Marines should look like in the Changed World. Nicely done.
George backs up another 20 ft still looking for cover and lets loose with 2 more shots:
Attack: 19 Damage: 11
Horde Breaker Attack: 13 Damage: 6
No help, just the 4 of you plus Max
She is actually a very new player and I did warn her that this was not your father's DnD. She was just having trouble getting into this strange world.
Who is the closest guard to me?
The 3 near Max
Then I'll go after the one that would allow me to be within 5 feet of Max and impose disadvantage on any attacks near me and then I'll swing at a guard.
Attack: 12 Damage: 6
OCC: Okay, No raven attacks, just high over watch, like 100 m
Aleister will target a xbowman not fogged Attk 19 Dmg 11

Shifting once again from the shadows in his highly concealing garb, Thomas fires another shaft at his original target, Gamliel's battering wings obscuring and disconcerting the foe! Deed done, the sailor turned soldier slips back into the dark shadows of the surroundings.

I saw your post but you go after the thugs.
OCC Ahhhh, that means Aleister could well be dead just before he manages to shoot something!! Oh, Cruel Chaos why hast thou chosen he!
