Oh, I was spelling it like the Salish-Shidhe council.

That would be wrong - Sidhe is a Gaelic word referring to the fae (for example, the word banshee was originally bann sidhe, translating to fairy woman).

Yes, I'm familiar. Just explaining why I used the wrong word.

You'd definitely find mine. The other two are probably in hidden mode, too.

I'm very noob about the matrix stuff, so you'll have to help me out until I get it. I assume detecting nodes doesn't send up any warning flags. Let me know if you do something that would trigger my firewall or agent or whatever.

Anything that would would entail a roll against my Stealth before the alarm went up.  Detect Hidden Node doesn't trigger anything of the sort, though - that would more be if I was actually trying to hack in.

That's what I figured, similar to detecting wifi access points. Passive.

I use these two guides all the time for hacking and matrix related activity. One of them came off these forums, I can't recall off hand where I found the other one.

both as a player and GM resource I'd recommend these to anyone, they could shave an hour of digging through the book down to just a few minutes.

While we're on the subject, how does slaving work?  If my comm is slaved to Nitro's comm, is it 100% vulnerable to anyone that hacks his comm?  Or would they have to go through his to get to mine, then defeat my security too?

Basically, if someone hacks the master node, they get accessed to the slaved nodes (or they can hack the slave directly but ONLY through a wired connection, and at a threshold modifier for the attempt - it's not subtle).  But if it's slaved to Nitro, that means that it's slaved to her bionode, not her comm (which is basically just storage for her) - and you cannot hack the bionode without having Resonance yourself; it's not even possible to make the attempt.

Can you in any way attempt to "Crash" a technomancer? or something like a direct attach?

Cybercombat can happen, certainly - you track their icon down in whatever node it's in and have at it; given that their Matrix damage track is actually just their Stun track, that can get pretty serious pretty fast.  The main thing is that without Resonance, it is utterly impossible to access the bionode in any way.

Oh, right, Chikage is from UCAS, not Seattle. We wouldn't know her. Guess the post stands. Sorry for peeping on you, miri, I thought you were the Johnson.
Chikage is from the UCAS proper, yes. DeeCee, and also Chicago, now in Seattle, though only recently. People who visit virtual clubs (like Tux's) would know her icon as a regular, and she appears in various clubs in Seattle on a regular basis. Also has ties with Yakuza.
