Ramón "Quase-Nada" Madruga (Fixer) | Connections 4/ Loyalty 3 | The latino dwarf specializes himself in making ends meet, for a reasonable price. As the saying go, being a fixer, he lives by his contacts. No he does not die by his contacts, since that would make him a lousy fixer. He does not work with the wrong people, and even the ones with potential may have a difficult time to get in his good side. This dwarf prefers to work from a secure point, and you just get one of these choosing well who you work with. |
Thomas "Thorn" Cain (Taxi Driver) | Connection 2/ Loyalty 1 | Thorn lives his life as a cabbie at Denver, and in the shadows people says he can really turn your life a little easier when you need to cross some of the boundaries: the man is an specialist in transportation inside in Denver, and he knows some coyotes who work on the borders. He is also a good source of Denver streets gossip, if you have the patience to filtrate it from his cheap driver seat philosophy. |
Damien "Inkling" Blake (Tattooist Roommate) | Connections 2/ Loyalty 1 | Fractal's roommate is not what most would call a resourceful man, but he listen what's been going on in the art and style scene of the city and know some nice things. Sum it with the fact he is quite an enjoyable guy and you will come to the conclusion it's worth having him around. |
Nikolai Kirillov (Aurora Warrens Vor) | Connections 4/ Loyalty 1 | A Russian human male, prejudiced against non-Russians, Nikolai is a brute man for whon Fractal's team has worked on ocassion; he can be of assistance in providing information on Vory activities, and with any extra-legal activities in the Warrens. |
Eliza Khanduri (Elf Coyote) | Connections 3/ Loyalty 2 | A coyote who workds the CAS/PCC border, and has solid connections to the Koshari |
Tabitha "Tabby" Morgan (Cat-like Changeling Female Fixer)) | Connections 3/ Loyalty 1 | A Fixer which can provide us some runs, she is also good at knowing affiliations of key figures and corporate procedures |

Safehouse in the Warrens:
Address: 4494 S Granby Ct, 39.63518,-104.810587 (http://maps.google.pl/maps?q=39.63518,-104.810587&hl=pl&num=1&t=h&vpsrc=0&z=19)
Description:
Peeling avocado green paint and a trim that may have been brown a few decades back, the rundown apartment building looks like it was
abandoned shortly after the decision to cut all utilities in the Warrens (there is a self made connection to electricity, but there is no running water). At severalplaces, three golden crowns have been tagged onto the building, a clear sign of marked territory. (the building is under protection of the Three Kings gang).
Unit number five has a plaque hanging on by the residual adhesion of paint, which reads “Manager.”
Categories:
comforts: low 2 -> You have a six beds, table and several chairs. There is a shower (though it doesn't have water connected), cleaning drone (five years old at least), soy-processor and a fridge. -> cannot be increased if you do it will be stolen right away.
entertainment: squatter 1 -> You can go out for drinks at a local dive or attend a dogfight. There is a selection of Yakuza bordellos and Mafia casios nearby. You can watch the pirated trid -> can be increased (buying a matrix service for example)
necessites: low 2 -> Your home has all four walls, a mostly watertight roof. You have electricity for your place, although it is from illegal tap, so a backup generator would be a good idea. Wireless coverage is available but at a low signal rating. There’s a lot to park your cars. You
can eat soy nutria-bars or universal patties with flavor packets, and do your laundry at a coin-op facility.-> can be increased
neighbourhood: street 0 (Denver's Warrens) -> The streets around are almost uninhabitable - condemned buildings, rusted-out car frames - a miserable, dangerous place to live. The down and out you call neighbors consist of other homeless, drug addicts, criminals, transients, and street gangs. There is little to no police presence. For the most part, the Thee Kings provide security to those who can afford it (and prey on the rest) -> limits comforts to low
security: squatter 1 -> You have a place to put your stuff, even if it’s just a locked box inside the appartment. It’s out of sight, but even common thieves will have little trouble getting access. There is a mechanical lock (rating 1) to the doors -> can be increased
Qualities
poor condition -1 -> like most in the area the home is vulnerable to certain weather or elemental conditions. When it rains, the roof leaks and the basement floods.
rough neighbourhood -1 -> well, this are Warrens - sin city. Gangs are active, people are aggressive, they people don’t even walk in the daytime without protection.
crash pad -1 -> this was is a Three Kings area, they consider own. And they feel always welcomed there, sometimes bringing booze, or stuff they've just stolen. Locking the place will result only in destroying doors. they are an inconvenience to the comforts and necessities (drinking beer from the fridge or eating soy) but they also provide presence in case you need someone to receive a package or message..
trigger happy landlord -1 -> since the landlord is Three Kings friend, he has no problem calling them to kick you out if you stop paying.
worse neighbors -1 -> While running isn't the safest business line, neighbors have worse occupations, and they occasionally bring it home, legal or otherwise. Undesirables hang around your neighborhood, and the police make constant visits there.
hasty exit +2 -> The house has exits on both east and west sides for observation, and there are windows to the south and north providing convenient exit points, in case of need.
inconspicuous housing +2 -> the place is hard to find using the Grid, there no street labels around, and the house doesn't differ from the surroundings
roommates: 5 -> the place could house 6 people, the price include it regardless of using that or no.
rent: 5 -> 500 * 150% (roommates) => 750 nuyen per month
special negative quality lonestar infiltrated - it can be target of occasional inspection or monitoring without reason, will be checked if there will be searchings nearby, crash pad guests trigger more frequents visits, each vists may leave bugs)
There are also some combined effects, worse neighbourhood + crash pad means, you can easily find some highly illegal thing in the basement
and combined with lonestar infiltration, means you can have some trouble for being there while it is found.Safehouse in the Tunnels:
Address: tunnels under old Aztec secotr
Description:
Having cleared the security, and set it up properly, Eliza is going to have the car rented for some highly stylish hideout.

necessites: low 2 -> there are all four walls, maglocks on each cell. no risk of rain days. You have electricity, water, but that's it.
neighbourhood: street 0 (none) -> There is only neighbourhood of Eliza.

Tabby was geourgous as always, and Fractal was doing his best as well, they would make a good couple, or at least it seemed fractal is playing with that idea.
Sams instincts told him otherwise, it was smalltalk, nothing more, just buisnes as usual.
[...]
Fractal's Personality/background:
[...]
Fractal also has a soft spot for cats, and raises one in his leisure time (which is almost the whole of it).
[...]
At least in Fractal's case, he could heal all his wounds on the first night after the run (it was just stun damage, at all); the only guy which was heavily beaten was Sam, wasn't it?
Guys, I am not sure, on the damage reports - was the two weeks enough for you to heal all the wounds?
Sam needs 4h of sleep to heal the Stun damage (http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/3378722/)On the possible new shared Lifestyle:
So, does anyone want to give up the hole we got from Johnny and start our own Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles themed secret lair?
Not in with Lips: He has a little bit higher standarts than sleeping in old prison cells (even open ones) and the BC=1 around him is also very uncomfortable.
Any other place without BC1 and the total cost around middle would be more acceptable.
Small egoistic Q.
Does Lips heal Sam too, or?
Sam sleeping (http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/3378724/)
if not then 2 days of additional rest to heal phisical d., to stun damage resting
if Lips heals at least one box, then Sam only needs one day to heal his physical damage.
this should do with the rolls. :)Lips can heal Sam when they are out of the BC:so i think i had -2 because of a lot of cyber
Healing: 4 hits (http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/3378932/)
Drain: 4 -2 = 2S (which I can buy)
but the last are empty, so 1 day for me to heal phisicly.
Guys, I am not sure, on the damage reports - was the two weeks enough for you to heal all the wounds?I'm sure Lips is able to heal himself within the first 48h
snake,The agent was a program he picked up from red wire along with the programs it is using. All Mouse did was purchase some autosofts for the drones, some upgrades for Dobbey and his share of the tact net purchase the contacts and glasses. From a karma standpoint all he did was buy off the BTL addiction and updated a CF.
you bought an agent program? can you pm me a log of changes?
That commlink optimization. Is it hardware or software upgrade?
If it's hardware than an operation would be required.
I was just organizing a post in which I will described each programs Fractal has running on his 'link right now and each sensors he is sharing with the Tacnet, when I noticed the optional rule about Initiative Bonuses provided by a Tacnet accessed through DNI (Unwired, pg. 126).
Is this in effect, or not?

Hm... Will Sam be able to help in to disguise ethnic features Fractal requested on? If that's not the case, Fractal won't bother searching for a better Japanese Linguasoft than he already has (rating 2).Yep if we get some nanoPaste then yes, i did not get any last shoping spree but i guess it's legal so just a cosmetic shop stop for us :)

Using Krivlov, Miguel and Tabby to swag, but need to know their respective Charisma+Negoation points to make the roolson the assumption this is correct i will change the interval and presume that Sam can get his packages as wellI am really busy lately (you might have noticed).but if you ask Kirilov or Miguel to get it for you, they'll get 4-6 hits per week I think
so just a single note: if you want to buy something that is costing over 10+ knuyen, and availability of 21, think about having it somewhere inside a month from now game time, maybe faster if Fractal himself start looking for it,, unless of course you drop in some serious nuyen.
both guns avalibility 12 interval 2 days - 4-6 hits per inteval -> 4-6 days to get it
ammo and Smartgun mod For Lips - > avalibility 16 interval 1 days - 4-6 hits per inteval -> 3-4 days to get it
money after all expenses =4k - additional cost to get the gear(like ?10%? for Swag) = this Sam is willing to invest in Drones, So Omar can be sure that there are at least 2k or 3k Coming his way.

You can blow the ward (attacking the wall like a structure 4 Armor 4 object)
You can force yourself through (magic + Charisma vs Force 4 + Force 4)
You can trace the link (Assensing + Intuition (5, 1 hour) Extended Test with modifiers) and ask createor to let you in
You can trace the link and stun or kill the creator to take down the ward.
You can try to fool the ward using masking metamagic (Magic + Intuition vs Force 4 + Force 4)
attacking ward or (obviosuly) trying to kill creator will alert creator.
Trying to pass thorugh if you get spotted by watcher will also alert the creator.

good we have wise GM that would told us (well I dont think he ruled the licence thing right...buying tacsoft for every commlink that is about to be in team sounds pretty silly to me...at least that would be listed in rules)Actually in rules there is an example about different servicing model which is equal to licencsing model IMO.
Netz, Larz, I forgot about the doberman. It wasn't allowed into the teahouse, I'm editing the post on your entry to reflect that. Hope it doesn't change anythign as of yet.
You guys...do you have any idea how to do this? Extract the girl without bringing shame on the house? looks like I need to look at the Geisha movie to get a grip on what kind of hobnour is this...and how to bend it to work for us :P
I really am not sure that I know what to do...
Maybe if they expell her, banish her...Or maybe if she or goblinize/surge...she would be banished from the traditional japan house...or maybe if we can prove that she is something like that...
Otherwise...I guess that the
Classic: Holding a gun to the head of Mayuri's boss or blackmail him/her, invent some nasty detail about Mayuri to buy her out.
We don't need to tell Mayuri every detail, but banishing = dishonor for sure, but being bought free.... maybe not so much dishonor.
But maybe Mayuri herself has an idea...
Well, it seems that the only part not updated yet was the inside of the teahouse. I'm waiting for Mayuri's reply.
The heart of her aura is darkened. She is very well hiding an extreme displeasure of having to deal with changelling and ganjin. The purple streaks at the sides are hinting strong affection of erotic nature, arousal even.Does she thinks about sex during a tea ceremony? Can Lips see at whom this affection is directed?
Depending on age, the purple streaks may not be uncommon. She does work at a tea house/Mouse probably has seen this site on the 'trix here (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geisha#Misconceptions)brothel.
Times change. this is shadow run after all--a darker place. She may be the traditional old-fashioned geisha. That doesn't mean that there isn't more to this tea house than meets the eye. She may not be involved in it, but that doesn't mean she is ignorant of it either.
witch brings me an idea, Fractal is good in editing, we could edit her doing something UN-geisha like and then propose to buy her out of the house service as this information would bring shame on the house.
Wellthe house owns her, so she would still be working for the house, cleaning floors for all they care.
I saw Memories of Geisha yesterday
and IMO that part with her marriage may be one of those possible, still, if she is Already Geisha, she is not a virgin and her relationship with man would be undesirable but not exactly the reason why remove her
I would only draw one possibility: If she is well established Geisha, she would have stabile list of clients.
Contacting some of them with medical questions, just creating the possibility that they had come into contact with some ilness...implying that Mayuri may be carrier...and maybe we can get some false eveidence she really is ill...(this would also mean that we need to find out their house doctor)...they would get rid of her pretty quickly...
- The idea about Mayuri being a disease carrier seems pretty good; the way Sichr has worded it, it would imply that 1) she may have had a kind of contact with a client which went over the boundaries of geisha-hood and 2) well, she is carrying a nasty disease. It's a good trump. But I'm thinking on how to operationalize it:
1 - Feeding the rumor mill is an easy enough way of doing it; but it's time consuming and once the fact is jumpimg from mouth to mouth, we lose control about the dishonor issue;
2 - Creating false evidence of disease could include falsifying medical records or the like; that would involve more legwork from our part and money spending, since not one of our characters is skilled on forgery (okay, the marriage thing could have this problems also, but the way I was planning it, it had no need to).

Not sure what are you asking precisely - there is watering hole before you - lot's of people gossiping, drinking, talking. exactly the place you need to learn more about local nightlife. the two are blocking your way inside.
Kun (君【くん】?) is used by persons of senior status in addressing or referring to those of junior status, or by anyone when addressing or referring to male children or male teenagers. It can also be used by females when addressing a male that they are emotionally attached to or have known for a long period of time. Although kun is generally used for boys, that is not a hard rule. For example, kun can be used to name a close personal friend or family member of either gender. Also, in business settings, young female employees may also be addressed as kun by older males of senior status. It can also be used by male teachers addressing their female students.
Chan (ちゃん?) is a diminutive suffix; it expresses that the speaker finds a person endearing. In general, chan is used, but is not limited to, babies, young children, grandparents and teenage girls. It may also be used towards cute animals, lovers, close friends, any youthful woman, or even between friends. It can be used for males in some circumstances, but in general this use is rather condescending or intimate. Using chan with a superior's name is considered to be condescending and rude.
Although traditionally honorifics are not applied to oneself, some young women adopt the childish affectation of referring to themselves in the third person using chan (childish because it suggests that one has not learned to distinguish between names used for self and names used by others). For example, a young woman named Kanako might call herself Kanako-chan rather than using a first person pronoun. Also, the very common female name suffix -ko (〜子) may be dropped, as in Kana-chan.

Both dobermans are equiped with gecko pads. They are able to climb almost any wall. D2 is also equiped with the winch. I can hardly imagine terrain that will stop them, well it would be somewhere where Omar is not able to get for sure.

Actually they lost it because you went into the teahouse. Omar has strong enough signal to regain connection when you get out but we have slight synchro to do first.Sam should have the same time, as he walked away from the tea house while they spoke, or is he just that fast? :)
Depending on next posts of Omar&Mouse (slightly behind you in time) and Sam (long behind you in time), the connection will return...
The tea ceremony lasted almost an hour. Tunnel cralewrs needed 30 minuts to meet with Peaches and 15 to reach their current point. You are walking the streets for about 15 minutes.so i assume i do not know any names :(

Excellent post Kour, and educational too :Dyakuza intimidation roll :)
You're full of Edge if I recall correctly.
If not, you got 1 point replenished.
yes quickdrawing dual and shooting dual will both split dicepoolsthanks but Sam is waiting for an answear so drawing a weapon would be the false way to go,
Got another issue though.Not sure myself.
Now you are in melee range with that yakuza, so I'd rule that he can use parry to defend against that shot. But if there is a general consensus he can't I'll go with range defense. Need some voice on that not explosions.
EDIT: There is a rule that full parry may not be used against ranged attacks, though I don't think it applied to melee situation where you parry arm keeping gun, just a generic statement that you can't parry bullets that have been shot at you.
they are not using touch weapons.Dodge
make a dodge roll please, with that amount of dodge dices, it seems they can beat you senseless only if you make a dice roll blunder, so let's have a chance on that :)
and make an init roll by the way. CT #1, has just ended
The tryign again rule is for trying again, meaning that the attempt is spent. there is a cooldown period between retries.OK fair enough :)
It's not allowed to reroll immediatelly with stacking modifiers, unless you sepnd edge.
this means, that the second shot is on 2 hits.

sam has some free actions to make and as far as i know this is still while he is driving to his location 15 min after separation Omar went underground 30 after split :)
Sam will be ashamed to ask for help but who had imagined these people where so Legendary athletic, or maybe they are magic Yakuza :)
Kour.
1. I didn't get into that detail previously (I didn't expected you to play with them for so long really ;) ). So I am making things like that car/table on the go. We can put there anything you want as long as this fits the story (a car on the other side of the street, a shop there, that you could run into. a balcony that you could hang on, or the staircase to run in... basicaly whatever, as long as it isn't a dragon ... make an IC ... gimme a chance to approve howevere if you think out something crazy
2. This aren't legendary gimnastic yakuza, and there certainly is nothing magic in them (battery of the comp with their stats has died, and I left the charger at work so I cannot check right away). The point in increased skill comes from TR3 but you can't stop to wonder what a shot of bethamine can do to a common yakuza (common = using triad standard ganger stats).
3. Omar/Mouse are reachable for sure, I'd hate however to mix the threads of time ;) - you sure you can't do this with a command (again, I don't see the dicepool of the dogbrain)?
Netz.
The doberman was following you, and it was left at the teahouse. Sam can call him to reach his position and protect him, overriding the command to stay by the teahouse, but it will need at least a minute to reach you. (assuming, Sam walked for 15 minutes more or less in circle around the teahouse)
It was a scene like from some kung-fu flick (though the more knowledgable observers would have recognized Aikido stances) with spectacular kicks, sweeps, blows and shots parried and dodged at the last instance, with bullets flying in all directions as Sam was trying to pin down the thug.
The Yakuza guys seem to know themselves good enough, that on a signal given by the one you're shooting they spread out in two directions drawing their light guns and hiding behind table of the beer garden and a nearby car and shooting from behind them.Quote from: oocCT #2, IP #2

they got you currently in cross fire, you can still see both of them, but if they spread any further - one of them will get behind you, getting a superior position bonus from shooting at your back.
1. got a slight mechanics issue (but no problem in the end as it seems)Just following the standard rules on Full dodge from the book, but you have the right to house rule it, and i have no clue witch direction the corner is, as i have no map or something like that, so it's up to your discretion.
Full dodge might be taken as interrupt, but not running. You are be able to take the remaining free from IP 3 to run when the defense rolls are resolved. Also turning and showing them your back actually would mean giving them superior position (+2 to shoot, negating your running modifier), since you wouldn't be able to see them shooting. And running backward while full dodging ... no, that's not the option.
Characters who are expecting to be attacked can spend a Complex Action and go on full defense until their next Action Phase. Characters who choose this option focus all of their energy on dodging, weaving, ducking, and blocking incoming attacks. Characters on full defense may still walk or run, and in fact may be better off moving
towards cover.
Full defense can be taken as a full dodge, full parry, or gymnastics dodge
Moving targets are harder to hit with ranged attacks, and give a charac-
ter more maneuverability when dodging. Defenders who are running
receive a +2 dice pool bonus.
2. activation of chameleon suit is at least free action if you operate via dni, which isn't possible I think so this is at least simple action. Also you can't full doge, run and take of your clothes all in the same IP, which will eat your next simple action. I need to know if you completely disappear around the corner or take good cover, but still maintain LOS.IP2
3. on the magic gymnastic issue, standard is 3, street guys (the one that survive) are slightly better, and those ones are on drugs, I've said that already earlier. Cram is nice, and Betameth also. They last long (like from last night party). They make you jumpy and aggressive. Seems like they found victim to blow the steam on. Also note that this are all supercheap, ganger affordable treats, they are not wearing high tech chameleon suits, or heavily modified guns with smartlinks :D. I guess you can safely tell your friends, that you were chased of the street by a pair of hyped punks, and it's all on the video :DSure will tell them, but in a way they first rushed and hid behind cover, so i am just following their example.
4. As for the splitting dicepools, one thing I noticed yesterday or so, is that you can quickdraw two guns within one action (that would increase treshold to 4 in each gun), for the shooting you split your normal dicepool into two pools and roll independly. Since you don't have the ambidextrous quality, there is a modifeir for shooting with off-hand, smarltink bonus is counted only once, and recoil modifiers stacks. Don't know if others apply, will resolve if you start shooting.Smartgun does not count at all. but i doubt i will use it, but will see, it was either shoot at both or take cover and the second idea seemed more like Sam, he is no Macho and defiantly not crazy :)
1. on the dodge. I've seen the rules. That's how I interpret them. Superior position is also more related to melee combat then ranged (though it mention that when defending against ranged attack from behind as well). Not really a house rule, but rather arbitrary GM modifer in this case. You run away showing them back, you got +2 for running but -2 for being shot at the back.
1. got a slight mechanics issue (but no problem in the end as it seems)so this is canceled. Whiiiiiii ;D
Full dodge might be taken as interrupt, but not running. You are be able to take the remaining free from IP 3 to run when the defense rolls are resolved. Also turning and showing them your back actually would mean giving them superior position (+2 to shoot, negating your running modifier), since you wouldn't be able to see them shooting. And running backward while full dodging ... no, that's not the option.
so, dropping the two dices from running, and assuming you use your third IP as complex
16d6.hits(5) → [5,3,3,5,3,6,2,5,3,2,6,6,5,2,2,2] = (7) -> 7
16d6.hits(5) → [3,1,2,3,1,5,5,3,3,4,5,5,1,1,5,1] = (5) -> 6
16d6.hits(5) → [4,1,6,4,1,2,4,6,6,6,5,3,6,6,3,2] = (7) -> 5
16d6.hits(5) → [6,4,3,3,6,5,4,6,5,2,1,3,4,1,3,3] = (5) -> 5
even so, you still dodge every shoot :D
An exchange with the Mob goes bad, and lead starts flying. Klaus’s Initiative is 10,
but one of the Mafia gunbunnies goes on 12 and starts shooting at him. Klaus is out
in the open, and there are other attackers to worry about, so he decides to declare
full defense so he can make his way towards cover. Klaus rolls Reaction + Dodge
against the goon’s attack, and manages to avoid getting shot. On 10, however, Klaus
has already used his Complex Action to defend, so he spends his Free Action to run
towards cover.
2. the actual sequence must be a little different.I guess IP2+IP3 is 16 m :P but 5m is fine by me :)
On IP2, you first used up complex on previous dodge, then you're shot, you use another complex from IP3. The unused actions do not stack, but are exchanged with fresh ones.
Anyway, since you decided to continue dodging, that means, you inherited -1 modifer from previous dodge in IP1. Doesn't really change much, as it only knock off one hit from the first dodge, which still is enough to avoid the shot. and you were able to use the free after the complex.
IP1 -> complex attack, interrupt dodge
IP2 -> complex action (interrupted dodge) used, free action to run
IP3 -> run, simple, simple.
keep in mind, that you were able to run some 5 meters away only (though you've completely hidden behind the corner)
Example on running
witch the elf samurai is chasing down an opponent. He’s an elf, so his Running Rate
is 25 meters per Combat Turn. This particular Combat Turn is three Initiative Passes
long, so he moves (25 ÷ 3) 8 meters per pass. If Twitch stopped running for one pass
to help up somebody his opponent knocked over, then he would only be moving 16
meters that Combat Turn.
3. re: "RP wise Sam Had his whole childhood training in pistols in demolition in infiltration and disguise, but these punks have the same level of skill?"If you remove all of Sams Cyber, these punks have no access to Sam stats are bellow their :), but enough of it :)
There must be some reason for that, but you'd need to chat with them about their childhood. Then again they are 3 points behind you in terms of skill in attack. You got Agi 7 Pistol 7. they got agi 5 pistol 6 - that's about 85 karma difference and if you remove the drug effect, it is 110 Karma. there is probably double that if you include dodge.
You'll never make me mad my friend, nor will you force me to use a tank :DSam is an assassin build, not a Forcer, so do not tempt me on trying out some of those skills. :D
I am content with finding a lowest possible power level necessary to hand your own ass to you on a plate :D
right now the record is belonging to long forgotten sentry drone, but that was more you action than it's own.
pair of thugs is now proudly standing on a second prize with a zero-zero draw
Sorry if this looks like an explosion, well what the f..ck is going on there. Discussing About NPC stats...oh, Kour..IMO we are over this, arent we? Dealing with tho guys on JET...srsly it took about 30 posts in OOC?::) Just having fun.
For the defence/attacks issue
3IP = Every turn Sam is able to Full Dodge (2x) every Yaks attack if they have 2IP and he has on IP left (1x) for his own use: two shots, melee attack or whatever. That simple it could be.
And I tell you...if you waste some APDS shots and give out the Dalmatian because of those two punks...grrr....;D
I'm not sure what you want us to roll for the 20% chance. An Edge + Edge? Or d100?
Edge(2) x2 = 4d6.hits(5)=2 (http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/3513677/)I'm not sure what you want us to roll for the 20% chance. An Edge + Edge? Or d100?
I wanted d100, but an Edge + Edge(1) test is also ok and more in shadowrun style.
Omar opens that Tunnel knowledge for 2 karma points.
Thanx Peaches. See you around.
Once again, Omar jumps into micro bug and crawls its way to the Tea house ceiling. Fiberoptic cable, connected to the drone, slowly unrolls, and when destination is reached, there is still plenty meters to make radio outpost down here. Omar disconnects cable rom his datajack and looks at Mouse:
Mouse, you still have that Satelite uplink , do you? We can station it here, as far as the optical line is able to reach, and I then be able to rig the drone from outside, considering its signal is strong enought to reach the orbit even from here. I have about 40 meters left, so we can place the station about 20 meters back and I still would still have some reserve. I hope Fractal or Lips were able to locate at least some line or device we can tap .
I love those details :)
And also...
I like that we have it done
BTW.
bug needs to pull cca 10 meters (from tunel to cellar), so IMO it is quite capable to do so.
for the sensor drone has, I simply cannot say nothing else but Thank you (I really didnt know how to make it work)
OK. Mouse, digital playground is yours, if you need some help, just tell us:)
There is still an issue of Flynn, to be solved, before we move on.
Looks like Denver if full of desperate lovers.
Omar and Mouse were tunneling, Fractal and Lips were teahousing, was Sam Yakuzing?
We don't have Mr. Yoshiro office address.
I'll have my data sprite run the search for the plate.
[...]
I'll do an hour max; hopefully the first 30min will be enough. And that would be the sprites' last service.
If Peaches still has the light (or if there is sufficient light) for Mouse to use his low-light vision he will use that; otherwise, Mouse reverts back to his ultra sound eyes.
As Peaches stops at the intersection to listen, Mouse only half-heartedly listens to the sounds of the tunnel. He's too busy looking around (left, right, up, down, front, back) to make sure nothing gets the drop on them.
Intuition(5)+perception(2)=7d6.hits(5)=1 (http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/3508938/) no glitch
We go to the south along a dead end tunnel. That was a poor choice of words, he thought. He's not sure if he really wants to go down that tunnel or not; it seemed like ringing the dinner bell to him.
He does a quick scan to see if he can catch any nodes from within the tunnel intersection and look for any hidden by taking a moment to go into VR.
EW(4)+Scan(3)+2TM-4Sus=5d6.hits(5)=2 (http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/3508952/)
While the high powered signal of Mouse bionode pickups signatures of some nodes on the surface (cars, shops, commlinks), there is no nodes in vicinity in the tunnels.Again, Omar kneels, D1 moves to the crossroads, then it stops and omar begin to scan for anything interresting on audio readings:
Sensor(6)+Perception(4)+Actively looking(3)+Sound would stand out some way-like any sound in complete silence (2) (15d6.hits(5)=7) (http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/3509903/)
You hear the muffled sound of the traffic (it is not that deep for complete silence) a distance thunder or fast moving maglev train.
More importantly however you pickup sounds of movement - a small electric engine. moving north from your location, the source is slowly getting farther with a sound fading away.
Peaches feels confident enough that she flares up her shoulder spotlight to speed up the march and leads you further down the tunnel. She watches closely her scanner and her commlink. You pass by some tunnels, and enter some other that do not differ in any way from the previous. The tunnels indeed are partially colapsed or walled in some points,, but you seem to always have a way ahead and slightly down.
At one point some 5 minutes later, Peaches stops. Here. According to your coordinates (there is no clear signal from the GPS, so you must resort to triangulation based on the nearby matrix transceivers) you are almost directly under the teahouse. We're 8 meters below the basement level. Though I think, they have filled it during construction. She points at shaft about half a meter in diameter several meters further on the side of a tunnel. This is it - unless they moved the house it should lead straight to the building.Quote from: oocThere is a 20% chance that the basement hasn't been filled completely, and that the shaft is passable to the top. Sichr/Snake, The first of you online make a roll, you might use Edge to get it without rolling, or use Edge to reroll if the first roll fail.
On success you might introduce there a microdrone drone.
Regardless of the result, with smaller or greater (depending on the roll) effort to excavate it, you might be able to break into the teahouse in person.
Snake, sorry for not spotting it earlier.That was an unregistered data sprite I summoned to do the searching. Since you didn't mention anything, I assumed the search came up empty. So I then did the machine sprite.I'll have my data sprite run the search for the plate.
[...]
I'll do an hour max; hopefully the first 30min will be enough. And that would be the sprites' last service.
Do you got some other data sprites? Kind of lost count. I think you have the unregistered machine sprite but no other data sprite.
if you want we could have this one freed so you could compile a new data sprite instead. otherwise, just make the datasearch rolls on your own forms.
Not really lost, just way too overburdened with work will get back. To posting as soon as possible.
Miss SR way too much. ::)
Do you have machine sprite or data sprite? What rating in either case?The compiled data sprite (R4) was before the machine sprite (R3). The machine sprite is currently active controlling Dobbey which since Unca Sam never called him to his side (wasn't part of the fight scene), so Dobbey would have waited for Mr Fractal and Mr Lips to exit the tea house and would follow them when they exited.
Now I'm feeling bad for Flynn.
Sent, you are getting pretty good at being evil! Congrats! ;D
I'm not bickering in order to make Lips attempt to summon a spirit unsuccesful (as I remember, usually Sent goes on with what was already done and then correct it in the next situations), but I'd just like to correct one little mistake on the rolls made: a spirit resist summoning with a roll of Force x 2, not just Force.
The data sprite R4 I compiled did his thing and departed. The machine sprite R3 is currently active controlling Dobbey. I have a registered Data sprite that I am using to do these searches. I'm out of town until Saturday, but I have a Fault sprite R5 with 7 services left, a Crack sprite R4 and a Data sprite R4. I don't remember which is which, but the number of services remaining are 3 and 2. I think the Crack sprite was at 2 remaining.

Indeed. But it isQuote from: oocThe closest way the surface, or the closest way for the KE evac team to get Flynn is the exit you've used, not the one under teahouse.
some rolls behind the curtain ....
yeah, I am lost a little bit in your little companions as well.
from what I understood:
1. before a mission you had a registered data sprite with 3 services
2. you compiled another unregistered one to perform searches during initial meeting with Tabby.
3. the searches during that meeting used up all of the unregistered sprite services, and it had decompiled
4. you compiled unregistered machine sprite to ride your bot
5. you ordered your registered data sprite (from point 1) to do searches on Kikuya and Yoshiro
6. the two searches (due to glitch) costed you three services and the data sprite had unregistered and decompiled.
if the baove is correct as of now you have no available data sprites, and you have you unregistered slot taken up by machine sprite.
hh
good that it was text chat :)
And you are right. I dont exactly give a fuck...if we can move forward. I aint saw Kouryou for a while and IDN if we are able to spend some more time steping around a single place trying to do whatever it takes to not let the game fade out and squeeze some fun out of it.. Rather do something stupid that do nothing.
But..
it seems that more PbPs here are in some kind of koma. Not just this one.
Tabby:There are dozens of runners in town, I hadn't had a feeing yet that you're taking only the easiest jobs, actually I was thinking you're going to be my prime team very soon. I know you can handle combat I've been hearing about you here and there. I need to know first hand if you can handle more discreet jobs wihtout months of preparation.
Larz, you still around?
So I get that a suspension is a method of choice.
I'll freeze the game and I'll make an interest/presence check every month or so.
given that - are you guys open for the spirits only game?
He's back :)
Unbelievable, but it's true....
The recruitments, tends to go really fast.
If we do it, we'll get two more players within a week easily - I THINK you guys need a little break from Denver.
For the spirits game, there will be recruitment.
If you ever leave a note saying whats going on, like "sorry guys too much work here I wont be able to participate for a while", I would salute you. but the way you just slam the doors to us, cut off comunication and simply diappear, I dont care what you are going to do. Even if that means the team come at its end.got it, going to screw myself. :(
Well, well, in fact, I was the one that, after seeing Yoshiro at the TeaHouse, proposed to still roll to the Lucky Eight bar. The thing is, I was quite unaware of it by the time... sleeping head and all...i think we could try that
Still, the idea of impersonating him is also interesting, if anyone think it can work.
That would be an interesting twist :DNow imagine having to preform in wool outfits in the heat, or even worse having iron Armour on :S
I have close to 40 here as well during the day. and with a ll that baby rush I feel like I'm boiling.
I think we lost Larz.At the moment I have enough free time to post at least every other day, not sure about August though no promises just yet, as it can go both ways.
I could NPC him until end of the mission if needed.
Not sure though if you had been waiting long enough :P
Is your appetite for Denver wet enough?
Or maybe you have still some vacations planned...
I certainly have a lot less time on my hands
we'll wait. every other day is good enough, but I don't want to detract you from the game that are moving (Messy Biz) and specifically the one you're gming (Horizon). If you can manage that, and still have spare time, we'll restart.if i have time i have it for all of them, as even though i GM, on all games people have to wait for me, and if that happens i can not prioratize my game, or i would drop out of others :(
Omar pulls the trigger...Sam uses edge to reroll misses on the dodge :D
D1 hits the bomb with another EMP blast. Detonate this ;DSam un-holsters his Colt and select the SnS ammunition for it. the jolt should be enough to triger the explosion of the Explosives :)
Applaud :D
both of you :)
"that little bit is dedicated to my rude and violent friend ME3XST, friend to all drones and to no man".
Omar switches to binary mode.
Kour. Just for info, where are you during the situation? So we can play tactics if yoshiro fails to understand the message? (Also...OOC x IC...you know the difference :) )IC Right now in preparation Sam is sneaking on them hiding behind cover, to close in, while monitoring from dalmation that he is not seen by the yaks. Base idea to be close if it goes south.

Quote from: oocalso unless you resort to interrogationyou can IC yourself out of the location and move to the PCC sector - Fractal need to make a roll on his Charisma + Etiquette + SIN rating (lowest of the team) with modifier (-1) against treshold of 2 (make a roll this time instead of buying hits please) or Omar make a denver tunnels roll against treshold of 2 to find an open tunnel to bypass the borders.
taking direct road will take you 1 hour to arrive (it's almost entire Denver to cross) or 2 hours using the tunnels at the border.

Let's do a round out: which of us has the worst Fake Sin? Fractal's is rating 4; I know Sam has a rating 6 one... what about the others?
Snake, make a data search rolls - note if you're doing them yourself or via data sprite, in the latter case, each topic is a separate service. Don't use Edge unless the sprite is registered. interval is 10 minutesHow many tasks did my compiled data sprite r4 complete before I interrupted him? I had 5 services to start with and I gave him 4 requests.
yeah, I am lost a little bit in your little companions as well.

Snake, based on the above - you need to edit your post with compiling new data sprite. ou also need to free your machine sprite to do so.
btw. the rolls for the last service where in this (http://forums.shadowrun4.com/index.php?topic=6822.msg133802#msg133802) post.
I'll post the search results as soon as I know the rating of the sprite you summon.
@Mac: thank you my friend. at the present time I don't need your services, you are free to go. as Mouse releases the Machine Sprite he had compiled from Dobbey.QuoteSummon@Data: hello Data, I need you to perform some tasks for me...I need you to do some queries for me on:

If Sam is satisfied with the knowledge he has he will take a nap for the drive if not then he will do some more data searched :)
As far as the encryption goes, I would think that there would be some limitations based on the nodes hardware ratings. A really tough encryption would require more resources in order to run the encryption/decryption algorithims (the tougher the encryption/the more resources.) Despite "today's" resources, there are still limits.from my experience
Are there any unanswered questions left?
If no, IC please what do you do. Everybody is online often enough to push the action further...

just doing some thinking on the best approach, either blow stuff up to make them panic,
or infiltrate do it stealth
or mixed
or just let the guys jump coms until they get to the server, these days you do not have to be present to hack something :D
also i think we could call Dean the hacker i have my sin from, he might be interested in the server for some gains as well some Yakuza secrets you know :)
but i lack time to make up a bigger post ATM :(

It was a simple search (find someone who can add you to the list), complex action. Just like i stated previosuly 5 hits were necessary, so it is a failure.I take it this search is not interval based, otherwise, the data sprite can aquire by default the other two successes in 20min (30min total.)
On the other search, Data sprites lack the scan complex form, so it is unable to find hidden nodes for you. sorry.

Are we guys still online...to finish the last job at least???
Seems like, I've missed a lot of SR action. 5th edition coming out? some tabletops games?
anyone care to brief me what should I read? The threads are frighteningly long on the forums.

Don't know what should be the appropriate additional problem here... an increase on the money spend?
Certainly, Lady Luck was on vacation. Or maybe it was just behaving like the bitch she is.
And then Sunshine returns, and the Yaks do their dance on the saloon. As the situation just confirms that luck is not on their side, Fractal sends a message to Lips. It seems like they will need to bet higher. @Lips: Well, here we are. I need you to make this guy leave the place. Can you make a diversion? He is the only guard here now, so maybe the drunk patron accusing someone of cheating or being jealous of one of the prostitutes may be enough for him to move... Well, if you have a better idea, go for it. But it needs to be soon, we don't have a lot of time."
Do you have Datajack or Skinlink then?
Anyway, guess we will need to go the brute way. Unfortunately, we got the wrong guy in place for it, I guess.

should I take it for abandon mission call?
We'll wait to give some actiontime to Snake, after that I'd like you to post some IC action, on how you proceed further.

;)
Do you have Datajack or Skinlink then?I have a skin link TM style. But after griping through all of the posts you already knew that.
what's your stealth rating after you dropped the threaded CF?It doesn't affect the exploit roll since the cf is exploit. It will other rolls though.
There is a -2 for sustaining form, but doesn't change anything, you still buy 4 hits per complex action.
If (or should I be writing when?) Fractal dies on this mission, I'm going Street Samurai/B&E afterwards. For a change.
why do you think he is, 'cause he is behind wifi inhibiting walls, how could you join him?
GM, I need your eyes.
I should be able to shoot at the target in the first floor, next to stairway, from Dalmatian, through window, to clear the path for Dobbey. I need modificators for the shot (cover, visibility etc...)
just one issue, I think you need simple action to jump into the drone, maneuver like this is complex.
Sent, how many nodes and what kind of time frame are we looking at to be able to hack the nodes that route data to the trix that weren't affected by the emp blast. Other than the one I'm accessing I wanted to put them on a continuous reboot. The one I'm accessing, I want block all comms except ours or mine (whichever is faster to implement)
Well it is somehow expanded Teamwork rule, since Mass Attacks count every active hacek in the group adding dices for teamwork test, but agents or sprites add only +1 for the test. IMO its close to houserule land.
I can't imagine that in Czech language. I think I'd die from laughing from the translation.

Ill IC soon, I need to collect my thoughts and words on it.
Do you think Dobermans and Dalmatian has Audio output? I know we dealt with this before, saying that since those are security drones, it is highly probable. My question is: How loud would it be...

Assuming you want to hack grid nodes nearby you'll need to find one for this district - simple action, analyze disctrict node (1hit necessary, on autobuy) to find grid node (not hidden, public access)
matrix perception another simple action (if not actively looking) to identify the stats at least
from earlier experince you expect something along the lines of Firewall 4, System 4.
They should not be activelly patrolled by security spiders, but might scramble IC on identified intrusion attempts.
continous reboot would require at least security access level to edit the starting routine.
if you go for admin, then it is a simple reboot action -> System + Response (10, 1 Combat Turn) Extended Test
or you can then crash the node from security action -> Hacking + Exploit (System + Firewall, Complex Action) Extended Test. Keep in mind that the latter will initiate alert and scramble IC.
if you don't care about leaving traces in the access log, hacking is doable within one CT probably rebooting within another 3CT..
single crash is enough to put this distrcit in grid chaos. and it will take a visit by physical repair team to restore order, unless they wake a security spider to log in and repair things in between reboots.

Found it on page 65 of the core rulebook:
"Teamwork tests
Each of the secondary characters makes the appropriate test; each hit they score adds +1 die to the primary character's dice pool."
Seems quite powerful but I like keeping the lowest stealth of the group as the threshold.

rereading OOC for some info and Sent, I have a feeling that Question and Answer didnt connect this time. I know I was sending a message to mouse about hacking the grid, well this OOC questio I understand he asks for commlinks, cameras etc, so he can erase traces...not the grid node.
Grid is online in this parts?
yes, or at least close enough, but since they got a deal with cops, it might be corrupted/not working correctlyand
Edge + Edge(1) roll if you want it to be off.
nope. If I want it to be off, Id make it that way. as soon as mouse puts himself together...
MASS ATTACKS
A mass attack refers to a team of hackers pooling their re-sources to hack a particular system. Functionally, a mass attack is
Probing the Target (see Probing the Target, p. 236, SR4A) with a
Teamwork Test. Hackers and technomancers can work together
on mass attacks. If the test is successful, all of the participating
hackers gain access to the node.
Agents and sprites cannot participate directly in Teamwork
Tests, but add +1 die to the prime character’s dice pool for each
agent or sprite assisting (maximum +5).
As you approach the building and park on a safe distance few block away you observe it and it matches both the description given by Mayuri and from what Mouse was able to dig out on the building.
The neighbourhood is rough, dangerous people are walking the streets with weapon carried openly.
You're also immediately attacked with countless spam messages offering sex services and online gambling mainly.Quote from: oocUntil further notice, you get -1 to all matrix related rolls and -3 instead of -2 to physical actions if you are heavily using AR.
As you zoom your visual observation aides you single out bouncers. They are Asians, visibly armed with heavy pistols and armor vests they also wear helmets as well as arms and legs guards. People from a short queue after being verified are allowed in or sent away.
you know, since we are in Hidden mode, all of us, it is hard to believe that this has anything to do with rules.
No offense. But Ive just ignored it. sorry. Anyone would have to bypass locate my commlink/ our network and bypass our firewall, Mouse bionode etc, to get anything on my AR/VR that I dont want to see...IDN why S0R0 spam tags may succeed in that
..., that it is RAW by Missions.

Optionally, gamemasters may choose to cap dice pools (including modifiers) at 20 dice, or at twice the sum of the character’s natural Attribute + Skill ratings, whichever is higher.
You can do it in one pass.
There will be intimidation roll however needed.
I need to check the modifiers though. Will post them in ic.

Okay. Now I know. No problem about the time; in fact, there may still be a day or two before this info really becomes crucial.
we`ll have to pay you a visit. So you can return that to us :)
Sent, for any purposes (dodge, targetting etc.), you should make perception test at first for spotting chameleon coated (-4 to perc) Dobbey (otherwise chameleon would be waste of money.) Also its SMG is equiped with sound supressor, so there is a little to be heard over the background noise
they yakuza guard was on patrol, and while there is machine gun fire outside, he could hear the shriek of his partner on the floor, also 200 of metal thumping on the floor kind of stand out from the normal sound (well the thumping is common, but rarely metalic one)
Intuition(3) + Perception(3) + sound enhancement(3) + distracted(-2) + sound stand out(2) -> treshold silenced gunfire(2), shriek and thumping(1) -> heard on autobuy.
he spent his free action to communicate and delayed rest of the actions.
I know there's still quite the time before my action, but how many CTs to get near the guard in the basement floor (preferably, trying to approach him unnoticed)?
3. chameleon coating is excellent tool when you're not moving or shooting from beyond movement hearing range and certainly not waste of money, IMO of course.
3. chameleon coating is excellent tool when you're not moving or shooting from beyond movement hearing range and certainly not waste of money, IMO of course.
Then again, while it's enough for making a dodge (all you need is hear a noise to tip you for a dodge, you can't move as fast as a bullet anyway).
it should be necessary to have a good visual ...
I stand corrected, I'll make a perception rolls for targetting.
btw. check your lowlight equipment and see if there aren't any modifiers for shooting in low light.
OK, will you modify attack rolls somehow? I will roll my defense and wait for damage codes, if changed.
EDIT: That was good use of second IP :P
Read IC conversation, Mouse was returning the money to Omar who expected this turn of events, so consider those 200Y + to your account, Fractal.Do not know if it's relevant but Omar has 1k cred stick Sam gave him befor they split at the Geisha house, and you probably can use Sam's come to do a transaction of his chash, there shoud some more left. he was saving up for better Equipment.
I do envy your habits, east europeans.I think this is very stereotypical of you.
Also, I do envy yours alcohol quality. Too much.
Sichr, I'll let it flow this time.
But next time, the drone would continue suppressing left area UNLESS I find in IC direct order to suppress entire area OR you buy adaptive mod for the pilot program OR you spend an action to send it new order.
This is the dogbrain not trained commando. I would not expect a dog to bite left person right person left person, but to let it loos against single target or group.
Guys, I'm really trying not to be melodramatic here, but since yesterday my life has turned upside-down and inside-out all at the same time and I'm not feeling like the normal me yet.
Already got a idea. In fact, I think I'll be recycling an old character who has seen the light of day twice only for a few minutes.you can burn one point of edge and Fractal will live, (this is not using edge, but burning it, reducing the number of points he has.)
Guess what? This one can shoot. And be in a firefight.
And talk. Though he is not the devil that Fractal was, for sure.
Hand of God: this option allows characters to escape certain
death. This use of Edge represents another shot at life—something
the spirits are rare to provide. The streets have decided that
they have more uses for this character before she’s discarded to
the trash heap and miraculously pull her from the jaws of Death.
Gamemasters can explain this phenomena with any rationale they
like, from sheer coincidence to the intervention of the gods. Note
that this does not mean the character gets off scot free. The character
should not escape unharmed from whatever circumstances
would have led to her death. In fact, the character should suffer
most of the consequences of the action that would have killed
her; if shot in the head, for example, she may be knocked into a
coma and appear dead to her enemies, but she will survive to get
revenge another day. A character who uses Hand of God should
be incapacitated until the end of the current adventure or until
the gamemaster deems she has recovered from the side-effects of
her close call.

I dont exactly like when dead speak here, well Id have the same advice: Hand of GOD. I still hope we will be able to pick you up.Good will not speak anymore here.
I can't help. Really. Unquiet dead, you know?+1
Boooooo.
I can't help. Really. Unquiet dead, you know?

God dammit burn that edge or Omar sure as hell find a hougan who will turn Fractal into zombie. or something like this.
Dont let mouse lose two uncles in one evening, instead of getting laid :D
break pedal? that's something from trasnfromers? you press it and your van break apart?
Get the fuck out of my carr. You leaving stains on seat covers..You know, i am so dead i cant really move and i cant even Edge burn, or your Rover would be set on fire, so be thankful i only smell and drip, and not flame and smoke, dear god, i might even ignite or explode. Then Mouse would lose one more uncle. that would be hard for poor little mouse.
well...
...not that I can distinguish them from those made by gass, oil and chili soybeans that were here before...
...And you SMELL....
...Sorry. I forgot I took my shoes off...
AARGH...
...I have piece of YOURSELF under my break peddal!!!
And just to remind you all about it; you already got the data. Fractal's first action when he left the dead zone was to send a copy of it to Omar.
hehe. arrived to germany. went for my interpreter`s birthday celebration. Got drunk. passed out. dindt wrote a thing. then woke up and worked. now need to sleep. then, I hope, IC :Dtypical trip to Germany then. Good for you.

That makes me wonder - Sam has any explosives on him?yep he does, there are radio and timer detonators as well :) - they should be able to level the building if they liked to :)
That makes me wonder - Sam has any explosives on him?
Seems like an odd thread for an SR5 discussion, but I'm game:
Where's that a screenshot from?
'cuz to be honest, that doesn't look like SR5 but more like a computer game...
It's more than likely a screenshot for a levelbuilder for one of the two SR games being developed: Combat skills only, AI-behavior settings, etc.
Depending on what style of game (and this looks mostly focused on combat) characters and especially NPC's don't need social or any other skills at all.
Since they're calling the hacking 'decking', I'm guessing it's for the Shadowrun Returns game.
Who do You shoot at ?
Mąkę a vehicle test to move. Over The rubble. Single hit treshold.
How were those guys able to get of the LOS? In the first moment there is one standing in front of rover, trying to full defense his way from bullets, another on the roof, and the second moment both guys are out of LOS, one behind the cover, second also behind the cover left from rover (IMO thats the one that was forced to jumd down from the rover...into all those debris, from pretty unstable platform) You say you want it shadowrunesque and cinematic, well If I had to do that, I would have to roll ;)
Shouldn't armor from the car be added to the armor of the characters inside (and rigger cocoon, if applicable)? Kind of like 'shooting through barriers'?
I'm not going to start a rules argument, I'll go with whatever the GM decides...You are risking a Sichrplosion here :D
But if the GM decides we shoud use RAW: I don't think that the rule which says "FA targets both the vehicle and the passengers" overrides the rule that says "the vehicles armor should be added to the passengers armor when passengers are attacked".
Using FA/explosives overrides the general rule that "you have to choose between targetting either vehicle or passengers, leaving the other unaffected", instead allowing you to target both the vehicle and its passengers with the same attack.
It doesn't override the rules of how targetted passengers should be dealt with (in this case: good cover and vehicle armor added to their own).
You are risking a Sichrplosion here :DOh, don't you worry.
but you are right in my book :)
Wow Sichr, chill out man.
RL's got his way on sneaking up on anyone at the most unexpected and inconvenient moments.
At those moments, a person's got to prioritize and put his full focus and effort in stuff that matters the most and much as it sucks for the rest of the players, a PbP's not nearly the level of importance of lots of RL stuff.
Does that mean a person doesn't have the time to pop in and post "sorry guys, I'm out"? Probably not. But it can sure as hell lead to moments when a person doesn't even think about PbP at all, no matter how engaging it was.
I hate that man !
@Kour: Are you really sure, that you have anything to say in this thread? I remember how disrecpetfully you treat us, as fellow players, not characters, by disappearing without single word or explanation, in the middle of mission. I know RL is a bitch sometimes, but it would be at least polite just to stop by and say:[/spoiler]
Sorry folks, Im not able to continue.
True, it gave time Sent to get back on his GM feet and find the way to be able to be both good GM to us and good father to Kathy, well I guess you better stay silent as you were for that year.
As Omar would say: We have multiple casaulties and it is your fucking fault.
I fully understand that it's my fault.
and this is my last post in this thread, wish you all good luck.
Over and out ....
Kouryuu
By what he says Sent has real hard peak now, before medicals kick in and the rest and care would bring any effect. I just stoped by to say: Rest, take care, this all can wait. Just take your time to put yourself together, I can see people who thought that three days should be enought and work har higher priority than health...breaking down with serrious troubles, unable to work for weeks, months. It is fucking rat race, I know. Not an easy thing to be able to take a break. You are clever enought to know this :) jurt releasing the friday afternoon steam. Live long, eat brainzz!
Ugh. More karma our characters will be behind the rest. *sob*
Anyhow, congratz. At our table, this mission pretty much turned into a TPK.
Still kind of wondering if Sent has written "Enemy (Yakuza)" with invisible ink on your charsheets though.
I wouldn't disrespect you by offering for free something others have paid for with their blood and lives.
About the optional rule, I've no idea what are you talking about. Care to copy post the excerpt?
Lastly I've no objections whatsoever to the team composition. Solve it between yourselves.
Sent, are Martial Arts from Arsenal in the game?
Sent, ramming's got its own rules for damage.
As far as I know, my interpretation of "attacking passengers" should have no reflection whatsoever on ramming. (But, again, AFB.)
No problem with having less karma than the others who have done a couple of runs, but if some runners have for example over 100 karma and the others have none, it is difficult for the latter to keep up. One or two mission runs is not a big problem though (I know those are quite light on karma). :)
I understand you're saying that when soaking full auto damage passengers get the armor stacked, and when ramming/rammed they do not.
what about motorcycles? do we houserule them out or do we leave them under general rule?
Characters resist ramming damage with half their Impact armor (round up).That's all it says about ramming. So no, imo, you shouldn't add vehicle armor there. (You can get the Passenger Protection vehicle mod for extra protection, though.)
... the passengers are always considered to be under Good Cover (though the Blind Fire modifier may apply to the attacker as the situation dictates.) Passengers attempting to defend an attack inside a vehicle suffer a -2 dice pool modifier to their dodge, since they are somewhat limited in movement. Additionally, the passengers gain protection from the vehicle’s chassis, adding the Armor of the vehicle to any personal armor the characters are wearing.Plus they'll usually get +3 Moving Vehicle and/or other things, as GM decides.
No problem with having less karma than the others who have done a couple of runs, but if some runners have for example over 100 karma and the others have none, it is difficult for the latter to keep up. One or two mission runs is not a big problem though (I know those are quite light on karma). :)
Well, I give quite a lot of Karma here.
The reasoning is that when you play at table you get 4-6 karma for a six hour session, in a month of gameplay you get somewhere around 15.
Here the same game last a bout three months, (sometimes a year) I like to see characters progress, they may do VERY fast, but so are NPCes. (ie. people you met in previous runs usually learns few tricks between runs, and have better gear just like you do) so it's in balance. and I'll retire any character that passess 150 karma treshold.
You know, I really dont care, Ill go with whatever you decide. Tired of reasoning about armor being abstact number so it should be added even in case of motorcycles. One rule for all, KISS. But if you want my opinion, I would tell you to ask Bull for interpretation, since this is Missions world, and then go with his word.
now...
BLUEH. Things are quite difficult this morning. Must have been drinking or something. I just cannnot remember it :D
For me it's just wanting to avoid feeling useless because the others have so much karma they can do whatever I'm specialised in much better than I can, or opponents having to be so tough for the ones with high karma that they easily one-shot the others (a bit less of a problem in shadowrun as compared to other systems fortunately). Well, if it really is a problem adjustments can be made later. :)
@Sent: did I already sent you my character? I think I did, but I can't remember and I haven't kept the PM in my outbox.
Sichr, Snake,Is that before or after recovery?
post your updates, assume two weeks downtime.
So far, I'm really liking what I'm reading about the new edition. Seems like people are really eager on solving some of the most glaring problems of 4A, yet keeping it simple and even more simple, if possible. Really nice.
Guys, just a notice. In past posts, I've said that I was preparing myself for some selection tests. Well, there's good news on that; I was selected in the one I wanted the most, and from now on, I will work the next two years in a project that I really believe and in which I was dreaming of working for a long time. The bad news is... my work routine will rob me of 60 hours a week at the minimum, and most probably in some days I will be on call/on duty (I'm not really sure how to convey the exact idea in English, but I guess that's the right translation, anyway). What I am saying is that, starting this Monday, my posting patterns will probably become more regular, but also more sparse. And, as I'm closer to snake's timezone than all the rest of you, you may count that our free hours will be roughly the same.
Hope that doesn't slow us down much, anyway.
Sent: I've seen that you have set-up the next missions IC thread. I'm not sure when you want to start it, but please be advised that I'll be AFK from the 13th to the 28th. I hope I have said this to you before (I think so, but I'm not sure anymore). :-[
it is two weeks or recovery + single skill advancement, whichever is longer. (which means if you recover in two days you got one and half more to upgrade)Sichr, Snake,Is that before or after recovery?
post your updates, assume two weeks downtime.
And my posting probably will be unusual. Posting on mon, tue and thurs will be light at best, weekends depend. RL takes precedence, sorry.
Hey, I'm not a lurker! I posted on your OOC boards!
Okay, sure, I didn't really belong there or had a good reason to post there other than to remind you I was still waiting, but it's not lurking when you post!
Oh, no. I lurk plenty of other threads.
I'm just saying: If you want in, you better prepare to annoy and harass the hell out of Sent for, uhm, 2 years or so.

No need to be so "destructive"... Remember that Fractal never trusted cyberware, his body was immaculate in this sense. He was a 100% flesh (even if cultured flesh).
His commlink, which is external, is the piece of equipment which had a response 6 module.
And yes, if you dare conpurscate his corpse, the most charismatic ghost will bring the army of the dead to haunt you. And he will convince your own happiness and the little you have of hope to go away and never come back... Really, you know he can do that, even from beyond the grave! ;D
Before trying to go all barbarian, you may catch a glimpse of his state-of-the-art 'link and hear that convincing voice in the back of your skull:"Frankly, Omar, I can be dead, but even if you try to disfigure me, I'm still the most handsome guy in the team. Don't bother trying to proove me wrong. You know that's a hopeless endeavor.
Ever heard of "Die young and leave a beautiful corpse? If the guy who said that saw that, he would be jealous. Too jealous. Poor chummer."
Snake, I'm sorry, but there was nothing in the last run, that you did, that would allow further submersion.Kill joy! I guess I'll have to do something else with my day then. I'll see if Gimmly wants to go resonance realm hunting with me. I can catch him up with what's been going on.
and before i forget:

about motocycles and armour ;)
not at all. unless there will be a Rover searching order. cops around know about forging plates and hacking the digital IDs, I'd say though, give it a month of garage time (at least one run), repaint, and it will serve as before.

Faro, if you wish, you might join in the IC.
Nice post Sichr. Mouse is proud of you. The ladies didn't throw anything at you.
Sichr, you probably meant OOC thread for your last post
actually it seems that the way I thought it should work was already planned, here excerpt from SR4A, pg. 183
Some spells simply require a Success Test, with hits determining the level
of success (as noted in the spell description). The Spellcasting + Magic
test must generate at least one net hit to succeed and may need more if
the effect has a threshold for success. The spellcaster can always choose
to use less than the total number of hits rolled in a Spellcasting Test.
Spells cast on living or magic targets are often resisted, and an
Opposed Test is required. For area spells, the magician rolls only once,
and each target resists the spell separately. The target resists physical
spells with Body and mana spells with Willpower. If the target is also
protected by Counterspelling (p. 185), she may add Counterspelling
dice to this resistance test. This Opposing dice pool is further modified
by any positive cover modifier the target might benefit from (see
Defender/Target has Partial Cover or Good Cover, p. 160). If the target
of a spell is on the other side of a mana barrier (p. 194), dice equal to
the Force of that barrier are added to the target’s resistance test. The
caster must generate at least 1 net hit on the Opposed Test for the
spell to succeed.
so while partial cover/good cover are covered :D, and visibility is in the SM pages, the only non-canon things, that IMO make sense is that if we treat spellcasting as ranged form of astral combat all other modifiers like freinds in melee, higher ground, spellcasting while in melee could be applied.
Guys, based on so far encounter, I feel that astral combat is pretty bland so I am going to introduce more modifers to astral combat. This seems to be inline with the description of astral visibility (SM 114).
I am also going to start treating non touch spells as range weapons.
this means for example.
1. in astral combat you can hide behind an aura of another dual or astral being granting you partial cover modifier. on glitch this being is hit instead.
2. you can hide behind opaque items like walls, cars granting standard bonus from partial, good and total cover
3. you can move to avoid being hit
4. if in melee (astral combat) casting a spell have modifeir, like when shooting while in melee
5. visibility modifer apply to both spellcasting and astral combat tests
all modifeirs applies to spellcasting, astral combat as well as to resistance rolls
ie. if a spell is going to hit a target behind a cover in crowded place there is spellcasting - visibility modifer and target use Willpower + cover modifer.
lastly and this seems to be houserule, you can go full defense in astral combat - against melee attacks this is Willpower + Astral Combat + Astral Combat and against spells this is Willpower +WillpowerCounterspelling + Counterspelling
What you`ve just described sounds exactly like me. Errr. I mean...Omar The PuppySlayer :)
Faro, what might be important for you is that I will use visibility modifiers for astral combat as I found it to be pretty bland.
exporting from the game that wasn't (war in heavens)actually it seems that the way I thought it should work was already planned, here excerpt from SR4A, pg. 183
Some spells simply require a Success Test, with hits determining the level
of success (as noted in the spell description). The Spellcasting + Magic
test must generate at least one net hit to succeed and may need more if
the effect has a threshold for success. The spellcaster can always choose
to use less than the total number of hits rolled in a Spellcasting Test.
Spells cast on living or magic targets are often resisted, and an
Opposed Test is required. For area spells, the magician rolls only once,
and each target resists the spell separately. The target resists physical
spells with Body and mana spells with Willpower. If the target is also
protected by Counterspelling (p. 185), she may add Counterspelling
dice to this resistance test. This Opposing dice pool is further modified
by any positive cover modifier the target might benefit from (see
Defender/Target has Partial Cover or Good Cover, p. 160). If the target
of a spell is on the other side of a mana barrier (p. 194), dice equal to
the Force of that barrier are added to the target’s resistance test. The
caster must generate at least 1 net hit on the Opposed Test for the
spell to succeed.

I've just noticed, you might have added 3 dices for observing in detail (though that would make you switch off from the conversation for a noticable seconds)
ok
SO far:
Cyber eye upgrade:
Eye Light system
Low light
New vehicle:
Thundercloud Contral
Repairing D1 would take 4 days, rest of the time I`ll be working on further upgrades. Ill need to do more table calculations :).
if fits perfectly into the capacity of my curent cybereyes. IMO done without surgery...
Pulls out oculus
Instal upgrades
Return oculus where it belongs.
Repeat on another eye.
Most possible damage 3S since it costs NO essence. But Im not really sure why do we go into such details...should I describe whole downtime hour by hour???
let's rule it that way then, all cyberware that has capacity and can be modifed is therefore modable.
new mods for your eyes is 1750 yen plus 100 for installation - 1850 yen

Not to get in the middle... but he already said you can just upgrade them.
Haha, no problem. Figured I'd make myself a useful lurker ;)
He already lost two uncles today and sure didn't plan to loose his last one today as well. The extra time he spends going over Mr Fractal's com link. A very artistic node and some very nice software to go with it. Mouse is impressed. All in all, a better com link than what he has. Mouse will check the com link for any surviving relatives that may want to know of his unfortunate demise. If he finds any he will figure out how to contact them. Mostly what to say. While not Mouse's style, he decides to keep the artistic virtual node that Mr. Fractal created as a remembrance.
Im not the type who is slamming the doors too often but now you really made me think about it.
For the upgrade: I have really hard time to imagine, that when you need strenght increased in your cyberarm, you need to buy a new one, IMO we follow the path of reason now ;)
Now I know it for sure. You are drunk! :)
On a more personal and sided though, I've just reviewed palladium books pages.
You know the company? They did Palladium Fantasy RPG back in 1980s. I got hold of the books about 15 years later I think, and I love them still...
To some extend they are similar to the Shadowrun books ... full of ideas, full of complexities, full of intermixing relations, deep, vast, detailed in some areas and blank in others.... they also share the same trait of being absolutely nightmarish in terms of managing that complexity both in rules and settings.
Is it something wrong with me that I like both of them? Why the people that write books can't deliver a quality, coherent, single view material throughout five books?
I need to read a bit of Earthdawn to see how well structured that system is, cause I am having an itch for a high fantasy game
any karma spendings?
I've edited messages for Silk. Since we changed her contact from Chavez to Mark Longfeather.
all right, if that's the case, I'll open up another ooc thread, so you could post your chars (I know SIchr consider this stupid, but I like to have a snapshop from the run begin)
Omar isn't the least logical denvertie, so I let you remind himself that on buying hits.
He had his enitre place wired and bombed and he used some combination of timing and acrobatic movement to enter it and lacking both knownledge on how to disarm it and skills to do so in his style ... well, that is a shortcut to hell

you can try, I've never written you can't. gave you fair warning only.
It was an strange movement that closed the book as the elf shoot her question.Hey now! Silk's human, I assure you!
btw. Xzyl great initial post :)*blush* Thanks!
Im sorry for delay well Omar cannot move without fedback from mouse on those background info searches. I hope Im not "averacting" but IMO it has to be this way.I just posted a series of rolls
@Snake_eyes: You devil! My tools. MY TOOLS!!! OH MY...The life of a cat... ;D
Everything has its place, everything on its place...
THIS IS SABOTAGE!
revenge is yours :)

Wow.
let's try again:
As predicted: way too drunk for a longer post. (this line took me like 10 minutes of effort and editing).
Maybe more tomorrow.

Only karma spent was for learning a new cf, ECCM, and specialization for Ew, communications, for better being able to scan for nodes.
Sent: like I said earlier in PM's, Ruthenium Polymer doesn't add to the availability.
(Out of the top of my head) The jumpsuit is avail 8, RuthPol is avail 12. But that doesn't make the equipment avail 20. The availability just becomes 12.
You'd only add them together if the availability was "+12", as is the case with vision/audio enhancers etc.
I always figured that internal 'ware was pretty much hardwired to your nervous system...
You're right about the YNT. Sorry, didn't catch it. (Was looking at the Ruthenium! :p) It worked for the armor I had previously; forgot to switch it. Will see what I can do to fix that.
Nope- Slaved to commlink. Costs time and money and it wasnt necessary so far.
Like I said, it's controlled through DNI so the wireless is disabled for the moment.
If/when the time comes the 'ware needs to be updated, all it takes to turn on the wireless is a single though.
It can be hacked through the DNI (which is the commlink if it's activated).
Regarding 1: I need to review the threading rules again it would seem (I was thinking it was going to be fading of 5 for the final value of the CF.)Only karma spent was for learning a new cf, ECCM, and specialization for Ew, communications, for better being able to scan for nodes.
Snake two things.
1. the specialization should be jamming. that would work both way to fight of jamming/jamm on your own. and is useful for identifying nodes that are hidden (I consider hidin as a for of jamming and vice verse). specialization in communication narrow your specialization to communication devices - which will allow easier finding other commlinks, but no hidden server nodes and no hidden peripherals. at least that is how I read it. Sichr?
you can also put the specialization straight as 'hidden nodes detection' to avoid any confusion. Cause your intent is clear. Don't forget that specializing in a skill breaks your skill group. reflect that in your card please.
2. you should always use your skills.
in this case threading higher scan by 2 points, you can do so on autobuy fading resist and it takes so short time, that in situation that are not combat ones, you can safely assume you can roll two hits on your threading rolls.
this would effortlessly give you two additional dices on the roll so you'd start with 13 dices instead of 11. You could drop that form just after using it to avoid modifier for sustaining.
lastly you can upgrade your complex forms with options for 2 karma per option. there are few particulary useful ones that you should consider: Mute (for your exploit form), Optimization (for your both exploit and stealth option), Area effect and Armor Piercing (for attack). Even when not bought you can always thread them - you use up net hits per option (or option rating point) - fading as usual, sustaining as usual. CF can have a number of options threaded up to half it's rating so it's usually non-issue.
Regarding 1: I need to review the threading rules again it would seem (I was thinking it was going to be fading of 5 for the final value of the CF.)1.
Regarding 2: Is there any learning time for the CF options?
For threading, the Fading DV equals the hits used for ratingso no you fade only for the extension not for the total rating.
points. If the final rating of the threaded complex form exceeds the
technomancer’s Resonance, the damage is Physical rather than Stun.
So the two nodes that I am focusing on belong to the two we are talking to and Unca Omar? Since Mouse is in Unca Omar's head.
Wait, I'm lost now. 4 people?
Silk, John, Omar, ?
4 (Intuition) + 4 (Perception) = 8 dice = 4 hits, no glitch (http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/3975770/)
It seems like the Snakebite manage to discern some elf's features after all.
But do not fret about it. In the spirit of the quality, he is just suspicious of her being an elf, and nothing more. Also, he had not said anything, and probably won't care about it anyway.
sorry about that :)
EDIT: and damn, 4 hits on 8 dices?
You know, I wasn't expecting this kind of PvP here :p
But since we're doing this, no holds barred, eh?!
Sent, not sure how vindictive you consider vindictive.
I've personally always considered it the urge to get payback; but unlike others don't think it always needs to be done with violence.
In this case, it's provocation which she feels need to be answered with more provocation: you press her buttons, she presses yours harder.
If a hacker is using mass probing to place bots, accounts
lost to security upgrades and system audits will usually remove
the bots as well. A botnet can also assist a hacker in performing
a mass probe; add a 1 die positive modifier to the hacker’s Mass
Probing Test for every bot in the botnet carrying an Exploit
program, up to a maximum bonus equal to the character’s
Hacking skill.
Mass Attacks
A mass attack refers to a team of hackers pooling their resources
to hack a particular system. Functionally, a mass attack
is Probing the Target (see Probing the Target, p. 221, SR4) with a
Teamwork Test. Hackers and technomancers can work together
on mass attacks. If the test is successful, all of the participating
hackers gain access to the node.
Agents and sprites cannot participate directly in Teamwork
Tests, but add +1 die to the prime character’s dice pool for each
agent or sprite assisting (maximum +5).
Netz, will you please roll two times your Firewall + Analyze?
ACCESSACCOUNTS
When you log on to a node, you do so at a certain access level, which is
defined by your account.There are four types of accounts, public, user,
security,and admin,in order of least to most access. Except for public
accounts, access to an account level requires authorization, which is
described in the next section, Authorization and Authentication.
A public account is a sort of “foyer” for a node. When logging
on without any authentication, you get a public account. Public ac-counts usually allow the user to access public information about the
node, and could also allow a small amount of functionality, like the
ability to order food, shop, fill out forms, etc., depending on the node’s
purpose. Most retail outlets, malls, restaurants, and other nodes open
to the public offer this account to customers.
A user account is offered to users who belong in the node, like
the employees of a company or paid customers of a Matrix nightclub.
Icons with this account are generally allowed to run programs, create
and edit files, and perform the usual work of the node (whatever that
may be), depending on the function of the node. User accounts require
some form of authorization to access.
A security account is for users who are responsible for safeguard-ing the node. These users are allowed the privileges of user access, plus
the ability to delete files, run IC, log off users, and initiate alerts. The
threshold for hacking a security account is increased by +3.
An admin(short for administrator) account grants a user full
access to the node. No action or command is denied to an admin ac-count. Most nodes only offer this account to a few users, or only one.
The threshold for hacking an admin account is increased by +6.
Peripheral nodes are simple constructs and only have public and
admin access. The hacking threshold increase for admin access does
not apply to peripheral nodes
"generally allowed to run programs, create and edit files" pretty much seems to imply this can be changed by higher-level accounts and would depend on the node/device (settings) itself.
Snake, what is your stealth rating?I bought the Mute option with Karma for exploit (along with area2 and targeting for attack) which I previously posted. So just to advance Exploit by 2 is 2p fading roll which I could autobuy.
I assume it's basic one so it is treshold 5.
Netz, will you please roll two times your Firewall + Analyze?
Snake I assume, you want to have mute option on. This mean you cannot autobuy fade resist on 3P (one net hit is used for option) - so you either have exploit 6 with mute on autobuy or you roll fade resist for 3 net hits.
Otherwise you could have just sent the configuration to them and let them apply it.
yes, you know you've triggered it, and you knwo you triggered it becuase you hacked in.
regarding the autobuy
I satnad corrected, it seems you can thread the options you haven't bought for additional hits, and if you bought them, they don't need to be threaded.
Sichr, can you pass this p.136/ p.148 Unwired.
you've triggered it on your second pass at the same time you hacked yourself in with admin priviledges.
I know, I am unbearable as Im frustrated by this illness.
Lets just have a look on next Snakebite`s great escape :)
http://vimeo.com/62092214
Let me know when I can act.
Eeps, just thought of something I completely forgot about and which Silk could do (/could've done) with the free action she got left:
Instead of using the bench only for cover, she'll also use it to hide; free action: deactivating the holoclothing to reveal the ruthenium polymer beneath it.
These guys are behind a smoke cloud; she's hidden in chameleon-wear, thermal dampening (in case these guys got thermal too) and behind a bench with a very immobile ork on it and another ork with a gun next to it. She'd figure chances of her being a target should be pretty damned low... Not to mention feeling really good using Omar as a meat-shield vs guys with taser-lances.
Good there is drone providing cover to omar. Btw I ve imagined the seating as: bench - TABLE - bench, Omar on one side, silk and snakebite on the other. The situation now would be
gangers-smoke-D1-bench+Omar-table-bench+Silk+SB.
Am I right?

DAMAGE AND PASSENGERS
Attacks must specifically target either the passengers (in which case,
the vehicle is unaffected) or the vehicle itself (in which case, the passengers are not affected). The exceptions to this rule are ramming, full-automatic bursts and area-effect weapon
attacks like grenades and rockets—these attacks affect both passengers and vehicles. If an attack is made against passengers, make a normal Attack Test, but the passengers are always considered to be under Good Cover (though the Blind Fire modifier may apply to the attacker as the situation dictates.) Passengers attempting to defend an attack inside a vehicle suffer a –2 dice pool modifier to their dodge, since they are somewhat limited in movement. Additionally, the passengers gain protection from the vehicle’s chassis, adding the Armor of the vehicle
to any personal armor the characters are wearing. Called shots may be used to circumvent one armor or the other but not both. In the case of ramming, full-auto and area-effect attacks, both pas-sengers and vehicles resist the damage equally.
BTW for defence pool:
RE+Handling or RE+Handling+Pilot skill if Vehicle is attacked
OR
RE-2+4(full cover) or RE-2+Dodge+4(full cover) if passenger is attacked / tries to dodge... (and possibly +2 for running)
BTW for defence pool:
RE+Handling or RE+Handling+Pilot skill if Vehicle is attacked
OR
RE-2+4(full cover) or RE-2+Dodge+4(full cover) if passenger is attacked / tries to dodge... (and possibly +2 for running)
marked is what I used Re + handling + pilot (skill + specialization) + running.
as for armor, he is ON the vehicle, not behind it, not inside it. no vehicle armor for him.
... and Ive just bought a bike ;)
We're specifically talking about full auto fire.
If I want to target a person on (or in) vehicle the rules are clear enough.
in the full auto case, they say that damage is resisted equaly which in my book means same damage value (ie after good cover, inisde vehicle defence modifiers)
in other words, you need to hit vehicle to hit all the passengers inside.
as of now and until further notice. if a passenger is inside the vehicle (ie. car, tank, coocon inside a drone) the vehicle armor stacks with passenger armor, for motorcycle and similar, vehicle armor offer no protection.
