The Rider grabbed three sticks of dynamite out of his cycle's saddle bags. "Reckon we make some trouble while the others set up a proper ambush?" He walked into the fields, beckoning Lex to follow.
"Look, I'm sorry I'm making this up as I go along, but I'm open to suggestions. All I know is we have to protect this baby and these farmers, so let's come up with some solutions, ok? Because I'd like to live through the night and get back to my own time." Reece snapped.

"Calm down girl, we're trying to help but you got to understand this is a little bizarre even in our line of work." Lex said looking at Reece. "Vivian is just voicing what all of us are thinking, but all of us are willing to help you out regardless. So calm down and work with Viv and Rex, we'll go see what we can do to buy us some time." He got out of the car and followed Matt, smirking at the sight of the dynamite," Wish I had a couple potato mashers, then we would do some real damage." He said, refering to the stick grenades the germans had used

Vivian glares at Reece and says, "We'd like to live through the night as well, you know! Snapping at us isn't going to help the situation." Vivian can't help but wonder why Reece was sent when she didn't seem to know what was going on any more than they did. Turning to Rex, Vivian asks him, "Do you have any ideas?"

On the basis if you can find ambushes, you can probably set them.

Reece tries to collect herself with a series of quick breaths. "OK. OK." She listens to Rex's plan. "Yeah, that sounds good. We need to put the baby someplace safe, and uh....you." She looks at Vivian. "Can go and fire from the hayloft?"
The Rider shrugs. "Wishing ain't making, so let's make with what we got. I reckon you've got a better idea what to do with this than me, I'll set some snares." He passes the dynamite to Lex.

"Well, one of the tricks they like in Windy City is they pack a bunch of loose stuff around the explosives and it blows eveywhere like a cloud of debris, but I have no idea how it will affect these things. Haven't got anything to light the fuses with me though. Not unless we make a couple incredible shots, and that won't happen with my trench.... what if we wrap some of my extra rounds around the dynamite? That would give a punch to pound those things if we get them close enough and can blow them. What do you think?" This was out of Lex's league, not the straight up fights he was used to. "You know worst case I can set up a bunker out here and pound them once they are between us. I run some wires to the dynamite and blow it using the battery out of one the Davidson's vehicles. A crossfire may be enough to stop them."

"Too bad we don't have the time, a flaming wedge would corral them into one spot."

Vivian nods at Reece and says, "I can do that."

It had taken a moment for what Rex had said to register." The wedge might work, but I can't do trenches." Lex said adamantly.

Vivian gets up to the hayloft and scans the horizon (Perception roll)
The Rider looked at the other men. "Ain't got time for fancy trenches - you got an idea for cover I reckon I can listen" He handed Lex a couple shotgun shells. "If this'll help, I'm in."
(Demolitions and trap rolls if you have them).
Reece went inside the farmhouse with the child.

As she scans the horizon for issues, Vivian gets her bow ready with another exploding arrow, realizing that the robots they had met before would show up eventually. 'This is so crazy!' Vivian thinks to herself.

Lex took the shotshells and started wrapping securing them around the sticks of dynamite. "What I wouldn't give for an extra pair of socks right now, would work perfect and be camouflaged." Instead he was using some twine from one of his belt pouches even though it was not perfect, and stuck a rock in the back so the shot shells would only be towards the machine men. "Any idea how much time we have? What ever we got will work for cover. Hell, we don't pull this off, the family won't need that wagon by the barn anymore. Rex, can your car tow that over here in the field somehow and then we tip it over?"

Vivian sees nothing over the horizon as Lex plants the improvised explosives. Lex and Rex can see the Rider setting his traps as he looks to Lex. "You ready?"
Rex can see all the potential cover: The barn, the house, both his car and the pick up that the farming couple has. There's also an old horse-drawn wagon rotting nearby that could be put to use.
Reece exited the farmhouse. Inside you could see the couple caring for the infant still wrapped in her blankets. Reece looked at her watch. "...just need a little more time...please just a little more time."
