Thematrian1 (8:35:41 PM): Adam will be gone for a few minutes
MilesMk1 (8:36:43 PM): Well, that's life.
Thematrian1 (8:36:53 PM): yes, well, he'll return
Thematrian1 (8:37:16 PM): meanwhile, someone give a precis of last week's run?
Umbrafer (8:37:55 PM): The log should be up, though if someone's memory is better than mine a summarized refresher would be appreciated
MilesMk1 (8:38:15 PM): We shot at harpies and hit them with clubs.
MilesMk1 (8:38:28 PM): Some didn't like it and left.
Thematrian1 (8:38:37 PM): yeah, close enough. The wasps lost, but sigrun's forces didn't fair too well
MilesMk1 (8:38:41 PM): And eyeball came and asked us to go see its master.
MilesMk1 (8:38:52 PM): Gah. I did say "Harpies", didn't I?
Thematrian1 (8:38:57 PM): yeah
Thematrian1 (8:39:00 PM): what happened there?
Dragcrell (8:39:35 PM): *shuters* ya the fun of be dual natered get use for a msageing board for the local spirets lol
MilesMk1 (8:39:36 PM): (I was reading - with dread - a press release about D&D The Movie II in another window right before...)
Thematrian1 (8:39:51 PM): (Wait, didn't the last one lose heaps of money?)
MilesMk1 (8:39:52 PM): (there were harpies mentioned)
Thematrian1 (8:39:59 PM): (It certainly deserved to)
Umbrafer (8:40:03 PM): (Yes, it did)
MilesMk1 (8:40:21 PM): (Apprently, it almost broke even with DVD sales, so they're making a second one directly to DVD with an even smaller budget)
MilesMk1 (8:40:44 PM): And, we told the eyeball we couldn't come back now but would try to come later...
Dragcrell (8:40:50 PM): (Ewwwww why dont they just shot them selfs?
MilesMk1 (8:41:12 PM): And then I shot some more har... wasps, and charged off to save Sigrun.
MilesMk1 (8:41:43 PM): (who I always assumed was a guy, though I suppose considering everything else about Alex, I should have known better)
Thematrian1 (8:42:15 PM): (Well, Alex has male contacts, I think)
MilesMk1 (8:42:36 PM): (True. And Blake was promised a hug, though it was never delivered...)
Thematrian1 (8:43:12 PM): (Heh, when was this?)
Umbrafer (8:43:19 PM): (Zbynhev is male)
MilesMk1 (8:43:19 PM): (Though in all fairness, that might have been because she was beaten almost unconscious right afterwards...)
Dragcrell (8:43:20 PM): (lol)
MilesMk1 (8:44:13 PM): (This was after I shot down the helicopter from hell in one action phase.)
Thematrian1 (8:44:28 PM): (Ah yes)
MilesMk1 (8:45:05 PM): (6 AV rounds - better money has never been spent...)
MilesMk1 (8:45:22 PM): And that about covers it. And all sorts of other issues...
Umbrafer (8:50:57 PM): *Sits in back of van and hurts*
MilesMk1 (8:51:22 PM): *charges off to save Sigrun* (as soon as Adam comes back, I guess)
Thematrian1 (8:51:30 PM): yeah, we're waiting on him
Thematrian1 (8:53:40 PM): Recap: the vans were both down, the vindicator drone on the roof wasn't firing
Thematrian1 (8:54:02 PM): There were 5 wasps moving and in the area: two on the drone and three and vans
EverGuard4 has entered the chat room.
EverGuard4 (8:54:37 PM): sorry about the delay
Umbrafer (8:55:04 PM): *Hurts more*
Thematrian1 (8:55:57 PM): So: Blake was charging off into the zone with three wasps and two downed vans to protect Sigrun
MilesMk1 (8:56:47 PM): #Hey, Alex? What does Sigrun look like?#
MilesMk1 (8:57:40 PM): Yeah... I guess there's the unconscious person by one of the vans, going to go after the wasps there first.
Thematrian1 (8:58:19 PM): at this distance, you're thinking 'dead', actually
Umbrafer (8:58:59 PM): #'Bout five and a half feet tall, shoulder-length blond hair… prob'ly gonna be tied back, covered… little stocky, solid build… you'll find her, she'll be the one in charge#
MilesMk1 (8:59:29 PM): Ah.
MilesMk1 (8:59:44 PM): Does that person happen to match the description I just got?
Thematrian1 (8:59:58 PM): no
Thematrian1 (9:00:02 PM): Male, too tall
MilesMk1 (9:00:08 PM): BTW, I guess I will open fire from ~ 50 meters.
EverGuard4 has left the chat room.
Thematrian1 (9:00:38 PM): only one wasp is presently visible, chewing on the upright van's tires
EverGuard4 has left the chat room.
Dragcrell (9:01:03 PM): *turns to Alex* "So how do we get your mmmm van in?"
MilesMk1 (9:01:16 PM): I'll give it a 6-round burst, and continue moving in.
MilesMk1 (9:01:20 PM): Init?
EverGuard4 has entered the chat room.
MilesMk1 (9:01:31 PM): Or just to hit?
Thematrian1 (9:01:36 PM): take a surprise action, then roll init
EverGuard4 (9:01:37 PM): thanks for the invites, Seiler + Matt
MilesMk1 (9:01:47 PM): np
MilesMk1 (9:01:52 PM): MilesMk1 rolled 12 6-sided dice: 2 4 4 2 2 5 2 3 6 3 5 4
MilesMk1 (9:02:00 PM): That's 12 successes, I think.
MilesMk1 (9:02:18 PM): 16D.
Thematrian1 (9:02:23 PM): 12 for 12, yes. Blam. Power? Also, how much ammo do you have left?
Thematrian1 (9:02:26 PM): Way to anticipate me
MilesMk1 (9:02:39 PM): I reloaded, so I have 32 now.
Umbrafer (9:02:47 PM): "Drive it in…"
MilesMk1 (9:03:20 PM): (I hope sigrun has EX ammo, this fight is putting a dent in my supply)
Dragcrell (9:03:29 PM): (lol)
MilesMk1 (9:03:35 PM): (I wish they had shock staves...)
MilesMk1 (9:03:56 PM): (No reason they couldn't, aside from how sickeningly broken they'd be.)
Dragcrell (9:03:59 PM): (I'm happy so fare haven't got any of my gear blown up or any thaing yet)
Thematrian1 (9:04:37 PM): (Yeah. I wrote one up to add to SotSW canon, but I had the sense to run a sample combat with it first. Madre de Dios)
Umbrafer (9:04:46 PM): (If you switch to an MMG, I've got you covered for weeks)
Umbrafer (9:04:49 PM): (Hah. Good call.)
MilesMk1 (9:05:03 PM): (hehe)
Dragcrell (9:05:13 PM): *nods* "know that but I dont think I'm good enufe to even get a good bike in there with the other stuff in the way."
Thematrian1 (9:05:15 PM): (In EX?)
MilesMk1 (9:05:23 PM): (I'll just have to branch into Clubs, karma permitting.:))
Umbrafer (9:05:25 PM): (No EX, but the need for it drops somewhat)
Thematrian1 (9:05:44 PM): (true that)
MilesMk1 (9:06:13 PM): (Mhmm... Could I even carry that? Would I have to shoot it prone?)
MilesMk1 (9:06:43 PM): (I suppose I'd be ok with a smartlinked one, if it was well-compensated...)
Umbrafer (9:06:43 PM): (You could carry it. IIRC you need Body and Strength both above 5 to fire it from the hip, and you'd take all kinds of penalties, but it's possible)
MilesMk1 (9:07:02 PM): (Clearly, I nedd a gyro-whatsit.)
Umbrafer (9:07:06 PM): (Indeed.)
Umbrafer (9:07:24 PM): (Or we could just get you a PAC)
Thematrian1 (9:07:55 PM): (Problematic just now)
MilesMk1 (9:07:57 PM): (You know, Sigrun seems like the type that might have one. It's the Vindicator on the roof that tipped me off...)
MilesMk1 (9:08:17 PM): (Meaning the gyro.)
Umbrafer (9:08:20 PM): (That's the kind of thing she probably wouldn't be giving out, though)
Thematrian1 (9:08:21 PM): (That's true, rescuing her might just be good for your armory)
Thematrian1 (9:08:23 PM): (Ah)
Umbrafer (9:08:28 PM): (Well, she might)
Umbrafer (9:08:33 PM): (We're friends (or at least I am))
MilesMk1 (9:08:37 PM): So, what becomes of the wasp?
Umbrafer (9:08:42 PM): (But her armaments are kinda necessary.)
Thematrian1 (9:08:58 PM): Thematrian1 rolled 11 6-sided dice: 1 3 6 5 3 6 1 4 3 5 6
MilesMk1 (9:09:09 PM): (I'll be happy with a few hundred rounds of EX ammo... ;P)
Thematrian1 (9:09:12 PM): the wasp loses half its legs
Thematrian1 (9:09:21 PM): it takes off, and starts flying upward
Thematrian1 (9:10:04 PM): it makes it about a meter before we go to init
Umbrafer (9:10:11 PM): Umbrafer rolled 1 6-sided die: 5
Umbrafer (9:10:19 PM): 5
Dragcrell (9:10:31 PM): Dragcrell rolled 1 6-sided die: 4
Dragcrell (9:10:45 PM): (-_- ewww)
MilesMk1 (9:11:02 PM): MilesMk1 rolled 3 6-sided dice: 1 1 3
MilesMk1 (9:11:05 PM): Aw, damn.
MilesMk1 (9:11:13 PM): Had to happen eventually...
Umbrafer (9:11:13 PM): So much for the 10s.
MilesMk1 (9:11:34 PM): 15
MilesMk1 (9:12:28 PM): (Well, it was a good streak.)
MilesMk1 (9:13:00 PM): (BTW, explosives are still considered the same as all other normal weapons as far as spirits are concerned, right?)
EverGuard4 (9:13:03 PM): EverGuard4 rolled 1 6-sided die: 6
EverGuard4 (9:13:06 PM): nifty...
Thematrian1 (9:13:21 PM): (I don't know. Jon?)
Thematrian1 (9:14:14 PM): The prisoners stay in the van with Trickster and Alex?
Umbrafer (9:14:56 PM): (Hm. That's an interesting call.)
Thematrian1 (9:14:57 PM): Thematrian1 rolled 15 6-sided dice: 1 1 2 4 4 4 6 1 6 2 4 4 2 1 4
Thematrian1 (9:15:05 PM): the wasp continues to fly upward
Umbrafer (9:15:19 PM): (My guess would be… aw, crap. Hm.)
Thematrian1 (9:15:26 PM): (I'm inclined to say it breaks armor, but...)
Umbrafer (9:16:06 PM): (My cop-out answer would be "depends on the explosive". If it does damage due to fragmentation effects (most grenades, f'rinstance) it'd not break armor, but if it does it via blast effects (probably most canon SR bulk explosives,
Thematrian1 (9:16:19 PM): (Ah, that's a fair distinction)
Umbrafer (9:16:24 PM): ((given their pitiful range), then probably)
MilesMk1 (9:16:49 PM): (Well, incendiary grenades, which I have 2 of, neatly bypass this dilemma anyway, no?)
Thematrian1 (9:16:58 PM): (Yes)
MilesMk1 (9:17:31 PM): (Though I guess I'll have to be careful not to torch Sigrun's shop... I figure the vans ought to be relatively fire-resistant...)
Thematrian1 (9:18:53 PM): Blake, the action is yours
MilesMk1 (9:19:03 PM): Ah. Didn't realize.
Thematrian1 (9:19:27 PM): Yeah, I didn't say. Sorry.
MilesMk1 (9:19:35 PM): BTW, did Rock come with me? (just so I know in case I decide to use something that, say, sprays fiery fragments)
MilesMk1 (9:19:48 PM): What wasps do I see?
Umbrafer (9:20:13 PM): (Remember, tires melt.)
Thematrian1 (9:20:15 PM): there's the one flying away, the two on the roof
Thematrian1 (9:20:21 PM): you saw two disappear behind the overturned van
Umbrafer (9:20:24 PM): (Sigrun probably has spares, but try to avoid nailing them anyway if possible)
MilesMk1 (9:20:31 PM): (Right.)
MilesMk1 (9:21:28 PM): I can't do much about the ones on the roof right now - and I'm happy to let them waste time trying to hurt that drone... I'm going to move around to try to get a bead on the ones that went behind the van, and fire.
Thematrian1 (9:24:27 PM): All right. You walk. Not there yet though, you were still 50 meters away.
MilesMk1 (9:24:38 PM): Actually, I was riding the Shield Drone.
Thematrian1 (9:24:49 PM): right, sorry. How fast is that, per Turn?
MilesMk1 (9:25:02 PM): Jon?
Umbrafer (9:25:14 PM): 25
Umbrafer (9:25:19 PM): (meters/turn)
Thematrian1 (9:25:34 PM): it whirrs
Thematrian1 (9:27:04 PM): there's nothing much to shoot except the wasp that's flying away
Thematrian1 (9:27:32 PM): Rock: actions?
MilesMk1 (9:27:56 PM): Not going to waste ammo on that.
EverGuard4 (9:28:29 PM): um... run after Blake to close distance to buggies
Thematrian1 (9:31:05 PM): Rock runs.
Thematrian1 (9:32:27 PM): He runs awfully quickly.
Umbrafer (9:33:07 PM): (Now see how far you can jump! ;) )
Thematrian1 (9:33:49 PM): That's the Turn, unless someone else has things to do.
Thematrian1 (9:33:52 PM): Init again
Thematrian1 (9:33:56 PM): Meanwhile in the vna:
MilesMk1 (9:34:01 PM): MilesMk1 rolled 3 6-sided dice: 4 3 3
EverGuard4 (9:34:05 PM): EverGuard4 rolled 6 6-sided dice: 2 5 3 2 4 5
Thematrian1 (9:34:06 PM): the prisoner who shot Alex addresses Trickster:
Thematrian1 (9:34:10 PM): "Wha...what was that?"
MilesMk1 (9:34:13 PM): Harrumph.
MilesMk1 (9:34:15 PM): 20
EverGuard4 (9:34:30 PM): EverGuard4 rolled 1 6-sided die: 2
MilesMk1 (9:34:46 PM): I need to find some bioware that'll boost Init by 1, I really do...
Umbrafer (9:35:20 PM): Artwinkulation is available now
Umbrafer (9:35:29 PM): If difficult to find, what with the whole city situation
Dragcrell (9:36:02 PM): "Just a messager of sorts tho was farly comical how it was bounceing on your head befor it made its self seen to the rest of ya" *smerks*
MilesMk1 (9:36:24 PM): True.
Thematrian1 (9:37:42 PM): "What?"
Thematrian1 (9:37:49 PM): (That was The Prisoner)
Thematrian1 (9:38:18 PM): ok: Rock runs, Blake rides. Over the course of the Turn, you reach the overturned van.
MilesMk1 (9:38:31 PM): Do we see the wasps?
Thematrian1 (9:39:10 PM): no, you're not tall enough to look over the van
Dragcrell (9:39:29 PM): "It was a spiret was in a form you others couldn't see it was bounceing on your head waiting for me to reply to its mesage." *turns to Alex* "you doing ok over there Alex?"
Umbrafer (9:40:12 PM): *Mumble*
Thematrian1 (9:41:27 PM): Turn ends?
Umbrafer (9:42:17 PM): No actions here.
Thematrian1 (9:42:25 PM): haha
Umbrafer (9:42:42 PM): I'm sure that comes as a shock.
Thematrian1 (9:42:53 PM): heart attack territory
Thematrian1 (9:42:56 PM): next Turn, init goes
MilesMk1 (9:43:10 PM): MilesMk1 rolled 3 6-sided dice: 5 5 4
MilesMk1 (9:43:16 PM): Ha-hah!
MilesMk1 (9:43:19 PM): 24
Thematrian1 (9:43:41 PM): well, that was the right time for it.
Umbrafer (9:43:43 PM): Umbrafer rolled 1 6-sided die: 5
Umbrafer (9:43:47 PM): 5 again
Thematrian1 (9:43:51 PM): One pass of movement will brring you around the corner
EverGuard4 (9:43:55 PM): EverGuard4 rolled 1 6-sided die: 1
EverGuard4 (9:44:01 PM): hm... getting lower each time
Dragcrell (9:44:05 PM): Dragcrell rolled 1 6-sided die: 6
MilesMk1 (9:44:09 PM): And into the loving embrace of the wasps...
MilesMk1 (9:44:21 PM): Hmm... This might be a good time for suppressive fire.
MilesMk1 (9:44:36 PM): Or not, since that'd have no power, actually...
MilesMk1 (9:44:45 PM): I move around the corner, and blast a wasp.
Thematrian1 (9:45:14 PM): All right. The wasps are ignoring you, busily dismembering the van's turret
Thematrian1 (9:45:21 PM): roll blsating
MilesMk1 (9:46:52 PM): MilesMk1 rolled 10 6-sided dice: 5 6 3 2 1 2 5 2 3 6
MilesMk1 (9:47:00 PM): Damn it. 9 successes.
Thematrian1 (9:47:04 PM): pitiful
Thematrian1 (9:47:14 PM): Thematrian1 rolled 11 6-sided dice: 4 1 6 4 1 6 4 3 4 1 2
Thematrian1 (9:47:36 PM): its carapace cracks
Thematrian1 (9:51:01 PM): Rock runs; he's still 20m away
Thematrian1 (9:51:12 PM): the two wasps turn and close to melee with Blake
MilesMk1 (9:51:58 PM): Yay...
Thematrian1 (9:52:06 PM): yeah
MilesMk1 (9:52:29 PM): ((Though one is hurt...))
MilesMk1 (9:52:45 PM): Since I have no other option, I will fight back with my stun gloves.
MilesMk1 (9:52:57 PM): If I actually hit, that ought to work pretty well.
Thematrian1 (9:54:04 PM): ok
Thematrian1 (9:54:06 PM): Thematrian1 rolled 11 6-sided dice: 3 4 4 5 6 3 2 1 6 3 1
MilesMk1 (9:54:16 PM): ((I need to get a defiance super shock...))
MilesMk1 (9:54:55 PM): Which one is attacking me first? The hurt one?
Thematrian1 (9:55:01 PM): yes
MilesMk1 (9:55:09 PM): Mhmm...
MilesMk1 (9:55:27 PM): MilesMk1 rolled 8 6-sided dice: 1 2 5 5 2 1 3 2
MilesMk1 (9:55:31 PM): Fuck.
Thematrian1 (9:55:36 PM): yeah
Umbrafer (9:55:38 PM): Oh dear.
MilesMk1 (9:55:40 PM): Meh.
Dragcrell (9:55:49 PM): (X_x)
MilesMk1 (9:55:53 PM): I need 2s to soak, but still...
Thematrian1 (9:56:22 PM): what's your impact armor again?
MilesMk1 (9:56:36 PM): 7
MilesMk1 (9:57:02 PM): 3 for the jacket, 1 for dermal sheathing, 1 for arm guards, 2 for the helmet.
Thematrian1 (9:57:10 PM): you are facing 3D.
MilesMk1 (9:57:15 PM): Gah.
MilesMk1 (9:57:55 PM): MilesMk1 rolled 13 6-sided dice: 5 6 4 4 4 2 2 6 4 6 3 1 4
Thematrian1 (9:58:16 PM): staged to zero with a success to spare
MilesMk1 (9:58:20 PM): Whew... Of course, now the second one will come, and I have no CP left...
Thematrian1 (9:58:21 PM): how much pool was that?
Umbrafer (9:58:22 PM): Whew.
MilesMk1 (9:58:32 PM): That was all the CP I had left.
Umbrafer (9:58:35 PM): Aw, sonofa
Umbrafer (9:58:40 PM): That was the wounded one, too…
Thematrian1 (9:59:04 PM): yeah
Thematrian1 (9:59:21 PM): the other one tries to bite your face:
Thematrian1 (9:59:23 PM): Thematrian1 rolled 15 6-sided dice: 2 1 6 3 2 6 5 2 4 2 3 5 6 1 1
MilesMk1 (9:59:31 PM): Hey, I have to ask... How did it get to 3D? (maybe I assumed wrong, and those rolls weren't for it, but I thought it only beat me by 3 successes... Since its wound and friend in melee would have cancelled out)
MilesMk1 (9:59:54 PM): MilesMk1 rolled 6 6-sided dice: 6 4 3 5 4 6
Thematrian1 (10:00:10 PM): (Yeah. Stage power by one from 9D. These are bigger spirits than the onse you fought)
MilesMk1 (10:00:16 PM): Oh.
Thematrian1 (10:00:52 PM): ok. Blake has five successes, spirit has 8. Resist 2D
MilesMk1 (10:01:05 PM): MilesMk1 rolled 9 6-sided dice: 2 1 2 3 1 5 3 3 6
MilesMk1 (10:01:11 PM): Shit.
Umbrafer (10:01:25 PM): Does anyone have access to Corrupt Karma?
Thematrian1 (10:01:37 PM): Does Blake have any pool he'd like to spend here?
Thematrian1 (10:01:41 PM): karma, that is?
MilesMk1 (10:02:11 PM): I think he's out, since we didn't refresh, since the fight with the cops, right?
Umbrafer (10:02:27 PM): Yeah, I think we didn't.
Thematrian1 (10:02:48 PM): Yeah, that's what I remembered, but I didn't know. Blake takes an L. Also, please roll Willpower versus TN 8
Thematrian1 (10:02:51 PM): Thematrian1 rolled 8 6-sided dice: 6 5 6 5 1 1 5 6
Thematrian1 (10:02:54 PM): Thematrian1 rolled 3 6-sided dice: 3 2 1
MilesMk1 (10:03:19 PM): MilesMk1 rolled 8 6-sided dice: 5 1 1 5 1 1 3 3
MilesMk1 (10:03:22 PM): Fuck...
Umbrafer (10:03:55 PM): Ow.
MilesMk1 (10:05:12 PM): MilesMk1 rolled 2 6-sided dice: 5 6
MilesMk1 (10:05:15 PM): MilesMk1 rolled 1 6-sided die: 3
Thematrian1 (10:05:23 PM): and that's that pass
Thematrian1 (10:06:13 PM): Blake acts. Rock runs some more
MilesMk1 (10:06:59 PM): Blak lets his AR swing loose, and deploys the Staff of Death.
MilesMk1 (10:07:26 PM): (And I'm increasing their TNs...)
Thematrian1 (10:07:27 PM): the prisoners cower
Thematrian1 (10:07:30 PM): (So noted)
MilesMk1 (10:07:58 PM): #Ouch... The ones here are a lot meaner. I might need help... Or need to fall back.#
MilesMk1 (10:10:56 PM): (Come on, Rock, manabolt their asses! :p )
Thematrian1 (10:12:09 PM): Blake's only action was the staff. The wasps try and move in for the kill
Thematrian1 (10:12:13 PM): Thematrian1 rolled 15 6-sided dice: 6 6 4 3 6 3 6 3 3 5 1 2 4 2 3
Umbrafer (10:12:14 PM): I'm jacking in and driving the van over to LOS.
Thematrian1 (10:12:19 PM): Thematrian1 rolled 15 6-sided dice: 2 2 6 3 3 5 4 3 4 4 3 6 1 2 5
Umbrafer (10:12:20 PM): When I get my action, that is.
EverGuard4 (10:12:24 PM): (eep, sorry)
MilesMk1 (10:13:07 PM): I roll Staff twice?
Thematrian1 (10:13:17 PM): yes
MilesMk1 (10:13:23 PM): MilesMk1 rolled 5 6-sided dice: 3 2 5 1 4
MilesMk1 (10:13:28 PM): MilesMk1 rolled 5 6-sided dice: 5 4 3 2 6
MilesMk1 (10:13:34 PM): Aw, fuck...
Umbrafer (10:13:35 PM): Umbrafer rolled 12 6-sided dice: 2 2 2 5 4 4 1 6 4 4 2 2
Thematrian1 (10:13:43 PM): Blake's TN is 5 from wound mods. Theirs are 5 and 6 respectively
Thematrian1 (10:14:18 PM): the first one beats Blake by 3 successes, resist 2D. The second ties; resist 2D
Umbrafer (10:14:21 PM): I suspect we're going to see the manipulating appendages of the deity soon.
Dragcrell (10:14:47 PM): ((lol lets hope not))
MilesMk1 (10:15:08 PM): (Well, not to bitch, but I wish I'd known they were larger than the others - might have planned differently... :))
MilesMk1 (10:15:15 PM): MilesMk1 rolled 9 6-sided dice: 1 5 5 5 2 5 5 3 3
MilesMk1 (10:15:19 PM): MilesMk1 rolled 9 6-sided dice: 2 4 1 2 1 5 5 4 6
Thematrian1 (10:15:21 PM): (They're not, they have a higher Force)
MilesMk1 (10:15:25 PM): (Ah.)
Umbrafer (10:15:27 PM): (In retrospect we should have planned differently off the bat)
Thematrian1 (10:15:33 PM): (Or planned)
Umbrafer (10:15:38 PM): (We've been careless since the blockade.)
Thematrian1 (10:16:19 PM): you stage away the first. The second deals you another L. Roll Willpower vs. 8 again
Thematrian1 (10:16:21 PM): Thematrian1 rolled 8 6-sided dice: 4 5 2 6 4 6 3 5
Thematrian1 (10:16:25 PM): Thematrian1 rolled 2 6-sided dice: 5 1

Thematrian1 (10:16:57 PM): Nothing happens, other than you get stingered in the knee again
MilesMk1 (10:17:09 PM): #Fuck! This is pissing me off...#
Umbrafer (10:17:22 PM): Would I happen to know any of the comm channels Sigrun might use?
MilesMk1 (10:17:46 PM): Time to try something different.
Thematrian1 (10:17:51 PM): Roll Intelligence. It seems likely to you that she's running encrypted, though
Umbrafer (10:18:11 PM): Umbrafer rolled 8 6-sided dice: 2 1 6 3 3 1 2 1
Umbrafer (10:18:17 PM): Umbrafer rolled 1 6-sided die: 5
Umbrafer (10:18:24 PM): 11, 4 after mods.
Thematrian1 (10:18:32 PM): Rock closes the remainder of the distance to the overturned van on this pass. Next Turn, he'll be able to round the corner
MilesMk1 (10:19:17 PM): And I get to go again, no?
Thematrian1 (10:19:24 PM): yes
Dragcrell (10:19:25 PM): "hey why we moveing whats up?"
MilesMk1 (10:19:51 PM): Ok... Screw this melee shit, I'm going to walk back and throw an incendiary grenade at the fuckers.
MilesMk1 (10:20:25 PM): Or drop it at their... feet... or whatever, and run back, whichever works best.
Thematrian1 (10:20:31 PM): alrighty then. What's your walking movement, and what's the spread on that grenade?
MilesMk1 (10:20:41 PM): Both good questions.
MilesMk1 (10:20:46 PM): Walking speed of 5.
MilesMk1 (10:21:11 PM): Though I figure if I drop first, then move around the van corner, it'll help a lot.
MilesMk1 (10:21:23 PM): The grenade spread is...
Thematrian1 (10:21:43 PM): indeed, that will save you.
Dragcrell (10:21:47 PM): ((10 meters for burning effect))
Thematrian1 (10:22:06 PM): 'drop the grenade, dive behind the corner' can be done in a complex, and will shield you
MilesMk1 (10:22:26 PM): Excellent. I do that.
MilesMk1 (10:22:39 PM): I'll apologize to Sigrun about the tires later...
Umbrafer (10:23:19 PM): Under these circumstances, I doubt there's a need.
Umbrafer (10:23:23 PM): I was hoping for slightly smaller bugd.
Umbrafer (10:23:24 PM): *s
MilesMk1 (10:23:37 PM): Should I roll something?
Thematrian1 (10:23:45 PM): hm. Roll Throwing
Dragcrell (10:23:48 PM): (affer the boom any thaing getting with in 1 meter takes 8m dmg from heat and flame and has a +2 vis mod for glare looking at it))
MilesMk1 (10:23:53 PM): MilesMk1 rolled 4 6-sided dice: 4 2 4 1
MilesMk1 (10:24:09 PM): Fortunately, this is not a highly complex operation... Still...
Dragcrell (10:24:56 PM): (tho that 8m is cut in half by inbact armor :3)
Umbrafer (10:25:22 PM): (They don't have armor)
Umbrafer (10:25:33 PM): (They have Immunity to Normal Weapons, which is a different beast entirely)
Dragcrell (10:25:55 PM): (well they might not but there not the ones I was adding the info for ^_^))
MilesMk1 (10:26:01 PM): (First order of business, if I survive this - knock over a shop carrying tazers.)

Thematrian1 (10:26:49 PM): You hear a hissing sound, and smell something really foul
MilesMk1 (10:27:11 PM): As my grenade goes off?
Thematrian1 (10:27:43 PM): yep
MilesMk1 (10:28:18 PM): I say a brief prayer...
Thematrian1 (10:28:35 PM): Blake and Rock are now face to face
Thematrian1 (10:28:42 PM): new Turn, new init
Umbrafer (10:28:51 PM): Umbrafer rolled 4 6-sided dice: 3 4 1 2
Thematrian1 (10:28:53 PM): Alex, you're still not Rigging the van?
EverGuard4 (10:28:54 PM): EverGuard4 rolled 1 6-sided die: 2
Thematrian1 (10:28:57 PM): oh, guess you are
Dragcrell (10:28:59 PM): Dragcrell rolled 1 6-sided die: 6
Umbrafer (10:29:21 PM): Yep, I'd jacked in straight-off. 16.
Thematrian1 (10:29:33 PM): (Ok Blake, here's your chance to out-init Alex)
Umbrafer (10:29:47 PM): (He's been doing it the whole combat :P )
Thematrian1 (10:29:57 PM): (Hah, ok)
MilesMk1 (10:29:58 PM): MilesMk1 rolled 3 6-sided dice: 5 4 3
MilesMk1 (10:30:04 PM): 21
Thematrian1 (10:30:56 PM): Good times. The wasps act first. They burst over the top of the van and pounce on Blake from above
MilesMk1 (10:32:24 PM): Increasing their TNs...
Thematrian1 (10:32:31 PM): Thematrian1 rolled 15 6-sided dice: 3 5 2 4 1 5 4 4 2 2 5 4 5 4 4

MilesMk1 (10:33:22 PM): Bah.
MilesMk1 (10:33:40 PM): Still, their rolls weren't too hot...
Thematrian1 (10:34:14 PM): ok. Against the first wasp you have a bunch of successes. You easily evade it and whap it in the head, not that that does anything. The second one gets past you and plants a stinger in your chest. 2D
MilesMk1 (10:34:52 PM): *@#$#@$
MilesMk1 (10:35:08 PM): MilesMk1 rolled 12 6-sided dice: 3 6 2 4 4 5 3 4 4 4 4 2
Dragcrell (10:35:09 PM): (Thats gona hurt)
Thematrian1 (10:35:17 PM): soaked
Thematrian1 (10:35:37 PM): Blake, then Alex, then Rock, then Trickster.
Thematrian1 (10:35:43 PM): The van can now clearly see the action, by the way
Umbrafer (10:35:58 PM): *Nods*
MilesMk1 (10:36:01 PM): Question... Does it appear like the fire hurt them both?
Dragcrell (10:36:03 PM): (lucky SoB *sigh* well lest now I can see what the hells going on ^_^)
Thematrian1 (10:36:07 PM): Yes, yes it does
Umbrafer (10:36:14 PM): #Stay low, keep a clear line…#
MilesMk1 (10:36:41 PM): Ok... I'll make my willpower attack against the one that's more heavily hurt... And I'll lower my TNs this time.
MilesMk1 (10:36:49 PM): Wait, no.
MilesMk1 (10:36:52 PM): No, no, no,
Umbrafer (10:36:55 PM): ?
Thematrian1 (10:36:57 PM): no?
MilesMk1 (10:37:04 PM): Let me think. ;)
MilesMk1 (10:37:18 PM): Yeah, what the fuck.
MilesMk1 (10:37:32 PM): Lowering mine to 3.
MilesMk1 (10:37:36 PM): MilesMk1 rolled 8 6-sided dice: 1 6 4 2 5 1 5 6
Umbrafer (10:38:07 PM): (Here's a question to you folks: would you rather 12 dice on a TN 9 test or 4 dice on a TN spirit-signature test for the bullets that are going to be whizzing over your head very soon?)
Umbrafer (10:38:30 PM): (Oh, yeah, if it wasn't preempted by other actions last turn I would have deployed the turret. Let me know if that still needs doing.)
Umbrafer (10:38:52 PM): (Actually, TN would probably be higher than 9… *looks up modifiers*)
Thematrian1 (10:38:58 PM): (It needs doing. But you have the time, so it is done)
Thematrian1 (10:39:47 PM): Thematrian1 rolled 15 6-sided dice: 2 4 1 4 1 3 2 5 4 3 5 6 6 5 1
Thematrian1 (10:40:11 PM): Blake, you have 3 successes on the wasp. Damage?
MilesMk1 (10:40:19 PM): 4M, I guess.
Thematrian1 (10:40:31 PM): stages to S, and he tries to soak
Thematrian1 (10:40:34 PM): Thematrian1 rolled 11 6-sided dice: 4 2 5 4 1 2 1 1 5 4 3
Thematrian1 (10:41:00 PM): the wasp takes another L as you widen the cracks in its carapce
MilesMk1 (10:41:25 PM): (I'm not sure, really... I think I'd like to move back first. ;))
Umbrafer (10:42:20 PM): (A none-too-massive woman recovering from severe drug overdose firing a medium machine gun right over your head. What do you have to worry about? ;) )
Dragcrell (10:43:00 PM): (ooooooooooo just masive lead poisoning I would hazered :3)
MilesMk1 (10:43:04 PM): (What are the rules for friendly fire, again?)
Thematrian1 (10:43:36 PM): Alex, what is your action?
Umbrafer (10:43:39 PM): (Aren't any, except in a general Rule-of-1 sense)
Thematrian1 (10:43:52 PM): (There is a firing-into-melee penalty though, IIRC)
Umbrafer (10:44:14 PM): (Bizarrely enough, I can't find that right now)
MilesMk1 (10:44:17 PM): (Ah. Well, they're big wasps, and I'm short, and hopefully if I got hit, it'd be by a stray bullet, not a stray 10-round burst...)
Umbrafer (10:44:19 PM): (Only Attacker in Melee Combat)
Umbrafer (10:44:41 PM): (It's not on the GM's screen list, which I think is comprehensive)
Thematrian1 (10:44:59 PM): (Weird. Something for SR3R I think. But for now, no penalty other than the seven points of wound mods)
Umbrafer (10:45:21 PM): (Woo. TN 9, I'm going for it.)
Umbrafer (10:45:35 PM): Attacking the one that's less close to friendlies. That the less-injured one?
Umbrafer (10:45:40 PM): (Not that Alex would know the difference)
Thematrian1 (10:45:59 PM): They're both very close, literally on top of in one case
Umbrafer (10:46:24 PM): Picking the one that looks less close on a snap decision.
Umbrafer (10:46:29 PM): Six-round burst, fully compensated.
Umbrafer (10:46:32 PM): Umbrafer rolled 12 6-sided dice: 4 2 3 6 6 2 2 3 2 1 4 1
Umbrafer (10:46:38 PM): Umbrafer rolled 2 6-sided dice: 4 3

Umbrafer (10:47:08 PM): Unless there are other modifiers, 9
Thematrian1 (10:47:15 PM): I see. And power is 15?
Umbrafer (10:47:21 PM): Yep
Umbrafer (10:47:23 PM): 15S base
Umbrafer (10:47:25 PM): Er
Thematrian1 (10:47:30 PM): Thematrian1 rolled 2 2-sided dice: 1 2
Umbrafer (10:47:32 PM): 9S base, 15D adjusted
Thematrian1 (10:47:40 PM): Thematrian1 rolled 1 2-sided die: 2
Thematrian1 (10:47:50 PM): so, you stage to D, it soaks:
Thematrian1 (10:47:53 PM): Thematrian1 rolled 11 6-sided dice: 6 2 2 3 6 6 6 2 2 1 5
Thematrian1 (10:47:57 PM): yeah, it soaks
Umbrafer (10:48:12 PM): Bah.
Thematrian1 (10:48:14 PM): You hit it, but the bullets ricochet
Thematrian1 (10:48:25 PM): It didn't ignore them, it just didn't care all that much
Thematrian1 (10:48:29 PM): Rock, your action
EverGuard4 (10:48:35 PM): um...
EverGuard4 (10:48:42 PM): *Willpower Whack (tm)*

EverGuard4 (10:48:55 PM): *sighs*
EverGuard4 (10:48:59 PM): 11, 8, crud
Thematrian1 (10:49:10 PM): it defends itself, or tries to:
MilesMk1 (10:49:12 PM): (On the one that's hurt worse, right?)
Thematrian1 (10:49:15 PM): Thematrian1 rolled 15 6-sided dice: 2 4 5 1 1 4 4 1 5 2 6 3 3 1 3
Thematrian1 (10:50:22 PM): you get it between the eyes. It hisses at you
Thematrian1 (10:50:25 PM): Trickster, any actions?
Dragcrell (10:50:54 PM): ummm how close is the van to the bugs and about how long well it take me to get to there posion?
Thematrian1 (10:51:15 PM): around 50m, though Alex had an opportunity to bring it closer, and IIRc two full Turns
Dragcrell (10:52:02 PM): ok I jump out and head to the closest wasp preping the snap blades as I do so
Dragcrell (10:52:07 PM): (should be fun)
Thematrian1 (10:52:19 PM): you snap the blades, and charge.
MilesMk1 (10:52:43 PM): Higher Friends in Melee mods are always good...
Thematrian1 (10:52:57 PM): Trickster has 9 stun, Blake 2 physical, Rock 5 physical, Alex ten and nine
MilesMk1 (10:53:11 PM): (If you don't want to get messed up too badly you can just hang around and taunt them... ;))
Dragcrell (10:53:37 PM): (eh I'm not worryed ^_^ they can't stun me :3)
Umbrafer (10:53:55 PM): We need a healer-mage and bad.
MilesMk1 (10:53:59 PM): (Trust me, you don't want to get stung anyway.)
Thematrian1 (10:54:23 PM): You need to not fight for your lives for a few days
Thematrian1 (10:54:27 PM): good luck with that
Dragcrell (10:54:32 PM): (hehehehe spoile sport)
Umbrafer (10:54:35 PM): Heh.
MilesMk1 (10:55:01 PM): Are we ending it here, hence the damage recap?
Thematrian1 (10:55:08 PM): no, I was just refreshing my memory
MilesMk1 (10:55:12 PM): Ah.
Thematrian1 (10:55:25 PM): Back to the top of the order, the wasps both harass Blake some more
MilesMk1 (10:55:31 PM): Good. They need to die, and I want to talk to an NPC once this session. ;)
MilesMk1 (10:55:40 PM): Increasing their TNs.
Thematrian1 (10:55:42 PM): (I want it too, believe me)

Thematrian1 (10:57:26 PM): staged again!
MilesMk1 (10:57:39 PM): I am so glad I saved 2CP for this...
Thematrian1 (10:57:47 PM): they try to sting you, but don't really get anywhere thanks to all your armor
Thematrian1 (10:58:14 PM): Blake's up
Umbrafer (10:58:18 PM): (Yeah, hanging on to a bit of karma pool can help)

Thematrian1 (11:00:29 PM): it soaks
Thematrian1 (11:01:13 PM): its mind is terribly strong. Its multifaceted eyes, inches away, give you a window into its soul
Thematrian1 (11:01:25 PM): It's not a pleasant thing to see. Rock?
EverGuard4 (11:01:58 PM): *Willpower Whack*

Thematrian1 (11:02:18 PM): Thematrian1 rolled 11 6-sided dice: 2 4 4 4 5 2 2 5 4 5 1
Thematrian1 (11:02:21 PM): soaks
Thematrian1 (11:02:36 PM): Trickster runs toward you. The bugs begin to lift off
Thematrian1 (11:03:02 PM): Blake, you have another pass and may attack again if you wish
Dragcrell (11:03:05 PM): (awwwww dame it >_< no fun)
Umbrafer (11:03:11 PM): (Hoi, don't I get a pass?)
MilesMk1 (11:03:15 PM): *contemplates the fine lines and precision engineering of the wonder that is Defiance Super Shock, with twin side-by-side darts.*
Thematrian1 (11:03:18 PM): (Bloody hell, so you do)
Thematrian1 (11:03:23 PM): Alex may act should she wish
Umbrafer (11:03:28 PM): "GRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!"

Umbrafer (11:03:59 PM): Sonofa. No hit.
Umbrafer (11:04:04 PM): Still, no botch either.
Thematrian1 (11:04:35 PM): the turret on the van jerks, and the burst makes holes in the overturned van
Umbrafer (11:04:44 PM): Oh dear.
Thematrian1 (11:04:53 PM): no one screams, though
Dragcrell (11:04:55 PM): (unmmm that could be bad)
Umbrafer (11:05:04 PM): (Wait, that van has less than five points vehicle armor? What the hell was Sigrun thinking?)
Umbrafer (11:05:19 PM): *Reminds herself to give Sigrun a piece of her mind about armor quality*
Thematrian1 (11:05:42 PM): (5 points won't bounce 15S, will it? Divides to seven, minus five makes two. Not that it matters in this case, but...)
Umbrafer (11:05:53 PM): (Vehicle armor works against base damage)
MilesMk1 (11:05:58 PM): (For vehicles the base damage... Yeah.)
Thematrian1 (11:06:00 PM): (Right, right)
Umbrafer (11:06:02 PM): (4 points bounces base 9S)

Thematrian1 (11:07:27 PM): Thematrian1 rolled 11 6-sided dice: 5 6 2 4 4 2 1 4 6 3 3
Thematrian1 (11:07:31 PM): It doesn't accomplish anything
MilesMk1 (11:07:41 PM): Well, to hell with them...
Thematrian1 (11:08:16 PM): They're still glowing with incendiaries as they fly away. Alex can shoot them some more if she likes.
Umbrafer (11:08:51 PM): "RAAAA" *gasp* "AAAAAA" *gasp* "AAAAAAA…"
Umbrafer (11:09:01 PM): Which way are they flying?
Thematrian1 (11:09:06 PM): Come to that, so can Blake
Dragcrell (11:09:11 PM): (*grumbles* shoure just when I get to where I can try and punch em >_<)
Thematrian1 (11:09:19 PM): Trickster trots up

Thematrian1 (11:11:32 PM): Your explosive bullets destroy its wings. It continues to hum and fly, though.
Umbrafer (11:11:42 PM): Got an answer as to direction?
Umbrafer (11:11:44 PM): In the meantime:

Umbrafer (11:12:15 PM): I'm firing two bursts per combat turn for as long as I can see them.
Umbrafer (11:12:30 PM): Until something appears to approach.

Umbrafer (11:13:31 PM): (That last 1 was for Roll 4, not the 12 from Roll 2)
Thematrian1 (11:13:35 PM): Thematrian1 rolled 11 6-sided dice: 4 3 5 6 3 5 6 1 2 5 1

MilesMk1 (11:14:20 PM): WP first, check for surviors, look for more bugs.
Thematrian1 (11:14:50 PM): Very well. When you appear at the van, you surprise the prisoners in a heated, whispered argument, which they break off as soon as they see you
Umbrafer (11:15:21 PM): When the bugs leave view I jack out, gasping for breath.
Thematrian1 (11:15:48 PM): Thematrian1 rolled 3 6-sided dice: 6 4 6
MilesMk1 (11:16:29 PM): *talks while reloading the GL* "Got something to say, gentlemen?"

Thematrian1 (11:16:57 PM): Rock, any actions?
Dragcrell (11:17:00 PM): *yells* "hey theres still the two on the roof."
Thematrian1 (11:17:53 PM): One of the doors opens in the standing-up van
EverGuard4 (11:17:58 PM): *checks van*
EverGuard4 (11:18:11 PM): (non-Alex van)
Thematrian1 (11:18:49 PM): An unusually short Troll falls out of the driver's seat, into your arms, Rock.
Umbrafer (11:19:05 PM): *Thud*
EverGuard4 (11:19:23 PM): um... so do I need to roll to resist being crushed, or summat?
Thematrian1 (11:19:46 PM): You can support the troll without a need to roll dice
Umbrafer (11:19:48 PM): (By strict SR canon Trolls are anorexic, so possibly not)
Thematrian1 (11:20:15 PM): Grab, avoid, what?
Thematrian1 (11:21:06 PM): Meanwhile: Blake leaves the van?
Thematrian1 (11:21:12 PM): Meanwhile: Trickster does what?
EverGuard4 (11:21:13 PM): *examines troll*
Thematrian1 (11:21:23 PM): Are you letting him fall, or grabbing him?
EverGuard4 (11:21:28 PM): EverGuard4 rolled 9 6-sided dice: 1 4 5 2 6 4 3 5 1
EverGuard4 (11:21:31 PM): I'll catch him.
Umbrafer (11:21:55 PM): *Doesn't quite pass out, but does a fair impression of it*
Dragcrell (11:22:16 PM): keeps a eye on the bugs on the roof untill Blake gets closer
Thematrian1 (11:22:50 PM): The troll's head lolls forward. He's mumbling something, but the words are slurred
Umbrafer (11:23:24 PM): (If he's mumbling "bomb", I swear…)
Thematrian1 (11:24:07 PM): "Tir, g'm"
Thematrian1 (11:24:28 PM): "Ter, g'm"
Thematrian1 (11:24:45 PM): Blake returns to the fight scene
MilesMk1 (11:25:24 PM): Do I see the bugs on the roof?
Thematrian1 (11:25:37 PM): No, they're occluded by the angle of the roof
Thematrian1 (11:25:39 PM): er
MilesMk1 (11:25:41 PM): #Hey Alex... Do you think Sigrun has good fireproofing?#
Thematrian1 (11:25:43 PM): by the roof, due to the angle
MilesMk1 (11:25:57 PM): What do I need to do to get a LOS?
Umbrafer (11:26:02 PM): Intelligence to remember what the fire-safety is like?
MilesMk1 (11:26:25 PM): Come to that... Can I try to figure out how likely the roof looks to burn badly from the WP?
Thematrian1 (11:26:28 PM): ok, though you're not familiar with all her defenses
Umbrafer (11:26:38 PM): Umbrafer rolled 8 6-sided dice: 4 3 6 1 1 2 1 5
Thematrian1 (11:26:41 PM): Waht relevant knowledge skills ahve you got, Blake?
Umbrafer (11:26:45 PM): Umbrafer rolled 1 6-sided die: 4
Thematrian1 (11:26:49 PM): Alex: You're not sure
Umbrafer (11:26:52 PM): 10, or 3 after mods.
Umbrafer (11:26:54 PM): *Nods*
Umbrafer (11:26:59 PM): #Dunno…#
MilesMk1 (11:27:22 PM): The ubiquitous Security Procedures? ;) I'd have to default to INT, I guess.
Thematrian1 (11:28:47 PM): go for it
MilesMk1 (11:28:52 PM): MilesMk1 rolled 6 6-sided dice: 2 5 3 2 3 6
MilesMk1 (11:28:59 PM): MilesMk1 rolled 1 6-sided die: 2
Thematrian1 (11:29:41 PM): you're pretty sure you won't set anything on fire
MilesMk1 (11:29:55 PM): (Except for the wasps, hopefully...)
Thematrian1 (11:30:07 PM): The troll grabs Rock by the shoulders and looks deeply into his eyes:
Thematrian1 (11:30:15 PM): "Nothing. Like. It."
MilesMk1 (11:30:34 PM): Ok, I move to where I can have a LOS to the roof.
Thematrian1 (11:31:05 PM): That requires climbing up on a van, but eventually you arrange things so that you can see the tops of the wasps as they tear at the drone
Thematrian1 (11:33:10 PM): The troll looks at Rock, seeming terribly serious
MilesMk1 (11:33:31 PM): Ok... I'm going to use my grenade link to set the grenades to airburst, so that the wasps get sprayed with WP that'll burn for 15 rounds for 10L, but avoid getting the entire load of it directly onto the roof.
MilesMk1 (11:34:46 PM): Roll to hit?
Thematrian1 (11:34:50 PM): Roll it
EverGuard4 (11:34:59 PM): *sets troll down gently and searches for other in-the-van survivors*
MilesMk1 (11:35:38 PM): TN 4...
MilesMk1 (11:35:45 PM): MilesMk1 rolled 9 6-sided dice: 2 2 5 2 6 5 5 5 3
MilesMk1 (11:35:54 PM): Eh. Not bad.
Thematrian1 (11:36:24 PM): The phosphorous bursts beautifully over the roof.
Dragcrell (11:37:21 PM): "Hope that kills em or we are going to be dealing with flaming pissed off bugs>"
Thematrian1 (11:37:26 PM): Rock: there was clearly a major fight inside this van. Most exciting is the strato nine lying in the back, with an enormous dent the size of a fist. Also, you think someone might have sent off a grenade in the passenger's seat...
Thematrian1 (11:37:36 PM): ...judging by the melted, slagged nature of the physical controls
Umbrafer (11:38:03 PM): Iiiiinteresting.
EverGuard4 (11:38:06 PM): ...
EverGuard4 (11:38:08 PM): o...k...
EverGuard4 (11:38:21 PM): the dent the size of a troll fist?
EverGuard4 (11:38:27 PM): or a "human" fist?
Thematrian1 (11:38:45 PM): Bigger than your fist, but with little indentations for knuckles
MilesMk1 (11:39:08 PM): Fighting inside vans seems to be the new thing.
Thematrian1 (11:39:16 PM): The wasps you phosphored took off, and are flying away and fast
EverGuard4 (11:40:32 PM): evidence of other individuals?
Thematrian1 (11:40:51 PM): There's an open bag of jerky melted to the passenger's seat
Thematrian1 (11:40:58 PM): no other bodies
MilesMk1 (11:41:05 PM): *examines the roof for signs of catastrophical fire*
MilesMk1 (11:41:12 PM): (Hey, a troll after my own heart.)
Dragcrell (11:41:19 PM): (lol)
Dragcrell (11:41:36 PM): *looks around trying to pice to gether what the hell all happned*
MilesMk1 (11:41:43 PM): #Alex, do we have a fire extinguisher in the van... Just in case this roof is more flammable than I thought?#
Umbrafer (11:42:14 PM): *Even more broken and halting than before* #Small one…#
Thematrian1 (11:42:20 PM): Blake, you can't tell much from this angle, but you think the burning above is just the phosphorus, not the phosphorus plus the structure
MilesMk1 (11:42:30 PM): Good...
MilesMk1 (11:43:16 PM): #Well, the good news is, the wasps didn't like it one bit, and the roof seems to be holding up... Coast is clear - for the moment...#
MilesMk1 (11:43:24 PM): #How are you holding up?#
Thematrian1 (11:43:29 PM): Rock: the inside of the van feels weird and unpleasant, like the UB. Trickster: the inside of the van has a background count of one
MilesMk1 (11:43:43 PM): *jumps back down to check on our prisoners*
Umbrafer (11:43:54 PM): *Long pause*
Thematrian1 (11:43:57 PM): They're eying each other warily when you return.
Thematrian1 (11:44:06 PM): Is anyone checking out the downed van?
Dragcrell (11:44:36 PM): I'm looking all round so I supost so
EverGuard4 (11:44:53 PM): *checks on troll and continues investigation*
Thematrian1 (11:45:12 PM): All right. There's only one way in: the open passenger-side door that the corpse is hanging halfway out of
Umbrafer (11:45:14 PM): *Mumbles to self under breath*
Thematrian1 (11:45:27 PM): The troll is raving, very quietly, in a language you're not familiar with
MilesMk1 (11:45:56 PM): #Damn... Alex? Please, stay with me for a moment, how do I get in touch with Sigrun? Intercom?#
MilesMk1 (11:46:14 PM): *checks in on Alex to make sure she's not dying on us again*
Thematrian1 (11:46:29 PM): roll Biotech, but your first impression is that she's not
MilesMk1 (11:46:34 PM): MilesMk1 rolled 3 6-sided dice: 5 1 3
Dragcrell (11:46:51 PM): *clawls in posed at the ready in case thers still something hanging around in the over turned van*
Thematrian1 (11:46:54 PM): your second impression is that she overexerted herself rigging the van, but isn't going to die
Umbrafer (11:47:05 PM): *Very quietly* "Too fucking weak… again…"
Thematrian1 (11:47:15 PM): The van is a terrible mess, naturally.
Thematrian1 (11:47:20 PM): Blake does hear that.
Umbrafer (11:47:25 PM): *Showing no recognition of his proximity* #She should have intercoms around…#
Umbrafer (11:47:41 PM): #Try calling if they don't work#
Umbrafer (11:48:00 PM): #Say you're with me… she knows me as Alex.#
Thematrian1 (11:48:17 PM): Trickster: there are three more corpses in this van, strewn throughout the back
MilesMk1 (11:48:31 PM): #All right... You take it easy now.#
Dragcrell (11:48:48 PM): any signs of what might have happned?
Thematrian1 (11:48:52 PM): Two are mauled, the third has a long, elegant dagger shoved through her eye
Thematrian1 (11:49:03 PM): she's clutching the hilt
Thematrian1 (11:49:21 PM): The background count here is two, by the way. Terribly unpleasant. Your fur itches, somewhere in your mind
Dragcrell (11:49:57 PM): *shivers then calls out to Rock* "dame this one is even wors then the other." *hurrys out and away from the feeling*
Thematrian1 (11:50:37 PM): There are a bunch of mechanical objects in the back, too, mostly smashed beyond recognizability
Thematrian1 (11:51:33 PM): Actions from anyone?
MilesMk1 (11:51:56 PM): *checks the cops' restraints* "Believe me, talking is the only way you have of improving the situation you're in." *runs out to check for intercoms*
Thematrian1 (11:52:21 PM): The cops look unhappy.
Dragcrell (11:52:41 PM): "Ech have one in there that looks like she staped her self with her own dagger." *looks around* what ever happned here I think we got in on the tail end of it tho that van there got it worse then the other."
Thematrian1 (11:52:43 PM): There's one by the garage door. Said door is dented, by the way.
EverGuard4 (11:52:44 PM): *checks out thing mentioned by Trix*
Thematrian1 (11:52:58 PM): You see what he saw.
Thematrian1 (11:53:05 PM): Also, roll Perception
MilesMk1 (11:53:59 PM): *buzzes the intercom experimentally*
Dragcrell (11:54:04 PM): *makes way to there van* "Ech starting to wish I lissend to mother."
Umbrafer (11:54:41 PM): ("Always eat your chickens?")
Dragcrell (11:55:15 PM): (ROLF na the one about avoiding citys and the crazy shit that happens in em)
Thematrian1 (11:55:44 PM): Blake, when you buzz the intercom: "Fuck you."
Umbrafer (11:55:58 PM): (That sounds like Sigrun)
EverGuard4 (11:57:09 PM): EverGuard4 rolled 9 6-sided dice: 6 1 5 6 6 1 4 6 1
EverGuard4 (11:57:13 PM): EverGuard4 rolled 4 6-sided dice: 1 4 1 4
EverGuard4 (11:57:18 PM): 10 10 7 7 5
MilesMk1 (11:57:37 PM): "Yeah, thanks... Listen, Alex is in the van, and hurt bad, and we got to one of your people before the bugs did... We need to get off the street."
Dragcrell (11:58:19 PM): *stares at the cops* "Tho I'm not shoure why we'er still keeping thes two around woudnt it be better to get what info we can from em and dich em in some convenet man hole and let the rats get nice a fat off em?"
Thematrian1 (11:58:53 PM): There's a pause. "If you know Alex, you know we want nothing to do with him."
Umbrafer (11:59:19 PM): :D
EverGuard4 (12:00:18 AM): ('cause I'll turn you into my next hat if you do that, Trix) ;-)
Thematrian1 (12:00:36 AM): The cops look sad and afraid
Dragcrell (12:01:04 AM): (got to find away to skin my ass first :-D )
Umbrafer (12:01:14 AM): (Not really)
Umbrafer (12:01:24 AM): (He could make an entire wardrobe of hats from you)
MilesMk1 (12:01:27 AM): "Har, har... I'm talking about the Alex that got in touch with you a few days back about a tanker truck, and *she* needs help."
EverGuard4 (12:01:36 AM): ironically enough, I just acquired a new knife... ;-)
Thematrian1 (12:01:56 AM): Another pause. "Shit. I guess you can come in, then."
MilesMk1 (12:02:03 AM): (I actually give the exact number of days, I just don't recall the exact number.)
Dragcrell (12:02:05 AM): (eh true at that)
Thematrian1 (12:02:11 AM): (Three, I think)
MilesMk1 (12:02:44 AM): "Which door you want us to use?"
Dragcrell (12:03:16 AM): *sighs* "Eh oh well the others have plans for you two I gues." *Climbs in to the back and sits down keeping a eye on the cops*
Thematrian1 (12:03:21 AM): In answer, the garage door rumbles to life. It gets about two feet up, then stalls with a nasty grinding sound.
Umbrafer (12:03:44 AM): *Orders van autopilot to drive towards it at a conservative speed*
MilesMk1 (12:03:51 AM): *tries to give the door a hand by banging out the dent*
Umbrafer (12:03:53 AM): *Also, retracting turret*
Thematrian1 (12:04:05 AM): Blake: to do that, you'll have to be inside
Thematrian1 (12:04:11 AM): there's light under the door
MilesMk1 (12:04:21 AM): I'll get in, then... Gun slung on my back.
MilesMk1 (12:04:35 AM): Watching for an ambush, or more bugs, though.
MilesMk1 (12:04:50 AM): Ready to roll back out at a sign of trouble.
Thematrian1 (12:05:04 AM): All right. You are the focus of three spotlights. Silouetted against them are at least six guys with guns pointed at you. They do not fire, or make any move at all.
Thematrian1 (12:05:14 AM): Rolling out?
MilesMk1 (12:05:27 AM): Umm... Guess not.
Thematrian1 (12:05:32 AM): Sure?
MilesMk1 (12:05:44 AM): If you put it that way...
Thematrian1 (12:05:46 AM): Meantime: where is Trickster?
Thematrian1 (12:05:58 AM): Well, I could just be messing with you. In or out?
Dragcrell (12:06:12 AM): back of alex van keeping a eye on the cops
Umbrafer (12:06:19 AM): The Lady or the Tiger?
MilesMk1 (12:06:57 AM): "Someone give me a hand here so this damn thing doesn't get stuck in the up position? Please?"
Thematrian1 (12:07:28 AM): You're in, and whacking on the door. The grinding noise stops, as does the door.
Thematrian1 (12:07:34 AM): "We'll beat it out eventually."
Thematrian1 (12:08:15 AM): "For now, it's fine."
MilesMk1 (12:08:18 AM): Does the door move open, then stop, then?
Thematrian1 (12:08:22 AM): no
Thematrian1 (12:08:26 AM): it stops at ~2 feet
MilesMk1 (12:08:55 AM): "All right..."
MilesMk1 (12:09:36 AM): "What's the deal, then?"
MilesMk1 (12:10:19 AM): #Hold on, I suddenly feel less than welcome...#
Thematrian1 (12:11:00 AM): "We've had a terrible night. It's nothing personal, but the last friend of ours who came through these doors tried to kill us."
MilesMk1 (12:12:32 AM): "Yeah, our night wasn't that great either... All right, what do you want me to do? Get rid of my guns? I'm fine with that if someone doesn't get excited and shoot me for touching them."
Thematrian1 (12:13:02 AM): "Take 'em out, slowly, turn off your reflexes if you've got 'em. While you're doing that, tell us what happened to Alex."
MilesMk1 (12:13:09 AM): #Hopefully just healthy paranoia on their part...#
Thematrian1 (12:13:13 AM): The speaker is a man with an incredibly deep, smooth voice.
EverGuard4 (12:13:36 AM): *shows up in Alex's van* "Might you bring the vehicle closer to the destroyed vehicle, ma'am? I wish to secure the bodies there."
Thematrian1 (12:14:13 AM): The van moves sedately toward the garage, coincidentally toward the destroyed van too.
Dragcrell (12:14:27 AM): *raises a eyebrow at that* "why do you want to do that for?"
Umbrafer (12:14:51 AM): *Shows no recognition of Rock's presence*
MilesMk1 (12:14:54 AM): *turns off reflexes, lowers the AK to the ground by its sling, opens jacket, grabs the Predator with two fingers, lies it down, pulls the narcojet out of his belt same way."
MilesMk1 (12:14:57 AM): *
MilesMk1 (12:15:09 AM): (and puts that down as well)
EverGuard4 (12:15:13 AM): "Justice."
Thematrian1 (12:15:30 AM): ::nod:: Do you still have that custom gun, and if so do you drop it?
MilesMk1 (12:15:56 AM): I think I left it back in the van.
MilesMk1 (12:16:07 AM): Oh, and as I do it, I say...
Dragcrell (12:16:09 AM): "Huh!? here dead what do they care as there just meat for the ones that eat the long dead why worry about them for?"
EverGuard4 (12:17:08 AM): *ignores protests and fetches bodies*
MilesMk1 (12:17:15 AM): "We were scouting for ways out of the city and ran into some Eagle Security... Alex ended up getting shot with narcojet a couple of times. She's in bad shape, but she's stable."
Vernjonal has left the chat room.
MilesMk1 (12:17:26 AM): (Still with us?)
Umbrafer (12:17:39 AM): (Yep)
Thematrian1 (12:18:40 AM): "And Alex is outside?"
Dragcrell (12:18:46 AM): *looks around to see what's takeing Blake so long*
EverGuard4 (12:19:16 AM): (how much longer will we go tonight?)
Vernjonal has entered the chat room.
Thematrian1 (12:19:43 AM): (Eesh. Not too much longer, I hope)
MilesMk1 (12:20:09 AM): "Alex is in the van. She's barely conscious - I'd have to carry her out, and I'm not sure I'm comfortable with that... One of you could look in on her while I stay in here..."
Umbrafer (12:20:49 AM): The van waits outside.
Thematrian1 (12:21:03 AM): Quietly: "Doesn't sound like them."
MilesMk1 (12:21:36 AM): "Sorry?"
Thematrian1 (12:22:31 AM): Someone shuts off the spotlights, one by one. Then the lights come up. You're in a large, full, spacious garage that has, as far as youcan tell, recently been the site of a missile duel.
Thematrian1 (12:22:58 AM): Rock conveys the bodies from the dead van to the live one
MilesMk1 (12:24:13 AM): (Hell, if I was really out to get them, I should have just fired a WP grenade under the door and waited for the screaming to stop before going in. Not that I'm saying they're being unreasonable...)
Thematrian1 (12:25:05 AM): There's a large collection of mixed-race, heavily-armed men and women staring at you
Thematrian1 (12:26:27 AM): One Troll lady has a Panther Assault Cannon pointed in your general direction. She detaches herself from the mob to head for a side door.
Thematrian1 (12:28:01 AM): One of the small doors in the garage opens. Rock, you see the aforementioned troll lady. She's pointed a huge weapon at you with one hand.
MilesMk1 (12:28:13 AM): "Look, feel free to ask questions if you feel it'd lead to having fewer guns points my way... Doesn't sound like who?"
EverGuard4 (12:28:33 AM): (where am I, @ present?)
Thematrian1 (12:28:46 AM): Conveying the third of the corpses to Alex's van.
Thematrian1 (12:28:52 AM): Trickster, where are you?
EverGuard4 (12:29:20 AM): "Yes?"
Dragcrell (12:29:26 AM): whent to cheak on why blake was takeing so long *points up*
Thematrian1 (12:29:42 AM): ah, sorry. Peeking under the door?
Dragcrell (12:30:00 AM): if thats what it takes ya
Thematrian1 (12:30:21 AM): She walks quickly toward Rock, holding her giant weapon casually.
EverGuard4 (12:30:41 AM): EverGuard4 rolled 9 6-sided dice: 3 3 5 2 5 1 1 2 3
Thematrian1 (12:30:50 AM): She stops about ten feet away and watches you
EverGuard4 (12:31:54 AM): *deposits body and returns to face her*
EverGuard4 (12:32:04 AM): *and lags like all heck*
Thematrian1 (12:32:30 AM): "Take me to Alex, please," she says
EverGuard4 (12:34:11 AM): blah
EverGuard4 has left the chat room.
Thematrian1 (12:34:45 AM): To Blake, from the crowd: "Who's that?"
Dragcrell (12:35:23 AM): "Shit whats going on we getting Alex in or not?"
MilesMk1 (12:36:09 AM): *to Trickster* "Yeah, just hold on..." *to crowd* "That's Trickster. He's with us."
Thematrian1 (12:36:35 AM): "He can come in." Same voice as last time. It belongs to a wide Orkish boy.
MilesMk1 (12:37:00 AM): *shrugs in Trickster's general direction*
MilesMk1 (12:37:25 AM): #Alex, you ok out there?#
Dragcrell (12:37:34 AM): *rolls in and has a look around*
Umbrafer (12:38:23 AM): #…Yeah…#
Thematrian1 (12:38:52 AM): The troll lady looks in on Alex
Umbrafer (12:39:32 AM): *Opens eyes a crack, sees large blurred shape*
Thematrian1 (12:39:38 AM): Lady, to Alex: "Miss, I'm going to bring you inside, now."
Umbrafer (12:40:12 AM): *Reaches up slowly, fumblingly disengages datajack* "Thanks…"
Dragcrell (12:40:18 AM): "What the hell......"
Thematrian1 (12:41:03 AM): She unbuckles Alex and carries her in. Alex gets laid out on a hydraulic jack whose previous occupant is now lying smashed on the floor.
Dragcrell (12:42:24 AM): "Is it comon place for you guys to try and kill each other then your selfs or is this a new trend?"
Thematrian1 (12:42:50 AM): The entire room except for Blake glares at Trickster
MilesMk1 (12:43:51 AM): *elbows Trickster*
Thematrian1 (12:44:28 AM): "Tell the rest of your group to come in. We've got a lot to talk about."
Dragcrell (12:44:35 AM): *shurges* "What!? With all the shit I've seen in the last few hours you blam me for asking?"
Thematrian1 (12:44:42 AM): Alex: you can't see all that well, but your hearing is fine. You haven't heard Sigrun's voice yet.
Thematrian1 (12:44:52 AM): The room glares at Trickster some more.
Thematrian1 (12:44:57 AM): See you all next week
MilesMk1 (12:45:05 AM): "Ask. Later."
MilesMk1 (12:45:10 AM): Ok.
Dragcrell (12:45:38 AM): lol ^_^
MilesMk1 (12:45:55 AM): One thing I'm going to do is re-gag and use some extra duct-tape to restrain the cops before leaving them out in the van.
MilesMk1 (12:46:12 AM): Just to get it on record. ;)
Thematrian1 (12:46:19 AM): (Heh. I'm looking forward to the conversation where Rock tries to explain to Trickster why it's good to not leave the dead to be fed on by scavengers)
Thematrian1 (12:46:27 AM): So noted.
Thematrian1 (12:46:33 AM): Leaving the cops outside?
Dragcrell (12:46:51 AM): lol or the rest of the group tryign there best to not get him shot :3
MilesMk1 (12:47:03 AM): Bah... They'll find out about them eventually anyway. (and the troll saw them, I'm sure) I think I'll gag them for good measure and bring them in.
Umbrafer (12:47:10 AM): Best not to leave them in the van alone, though they should be blindfolded six ways to Sunday
MilesMk1 (12:47:32 AM): I meant blindfold, not gag...
Dragcrell (12:47:53 AM): could gouge out there eyes ^_^
Thematrian1 (12:48:02 AM): noted. We'll cover reactions to that next week
MilesMk1 (12:48:19 AM): I just have a feeling they'll want to execute them, and I just feel strangely protective after all this shit and all the effort not killing them cost us...
MilesMk1 (12:48:36 AM): I guess we'll see...
MilesMk1 (12:48:50 AM): All right, see you variously on Thurs/Tues.
MilesMk1 (12:48:57 AM): Goodnight.
Dragcrell (12:49:05 AM): well have fun ^_^
