Ok no worries.  I don't think Knives is in the mood for a subzero swim.

[Csjarrat]

Cool, let's get the rolls and actions sorted then so we can wrap up this chapter before Christmas

[Scawire]

Sorry for the slow down, I really don't want to be spotted.

Hey CS do you think we can see again if we can get a Decker on the team it would be nice to have a new door man. Oh if we do get someone and they flak on us we could turn them into an NPC until we get a replacement. Just an idea, also are we moving to 5th edition after this?

[Csjarrat]

If you guys are happy with moving to 5th then we'll do it, I'm not going to railroad you guys into that choice though. Happy to get a.decker on board, problem has been retaining players over the year and a bit we've been playing. Started with 5!!
I'll get a decker or tm onboard for CH4

[Lumen]

Yea I'm fine with moving on to 5th.

[Csjarrat]

i've put up a recruitment thread today, i'll pick the ones i like and then ask you both to vet and choose which you'd prefer to work with.

[Scawire]

Slicer MD Vs Maglock
Agent 3 + Software 3 + hotsim 2 = 8

Target Maglock so like 2 I think.

8d6.hits(5)=4

Slicer MD vs Camera
Agent 3 + Software 3 + Hotsim 2 = 8

Target ? 6

8d6.hits(5)=1

2nd go around -1 dice = 7
7d6.hits(5)=1

3rd go around  -1 dice = 6
6d6.hits(5)=1

4th go around -1 dice = 5
5d6.hits(5)=2

5ht go around -1 dice = 4
4d6.hits(5)=1

Ok I think bells are a ringing and we will see how well you all run with the smell of orc on you.

[Scawire]

I'm totally cool with running in 5th edition since Mantis is alot better in that version. I was looking over Mantis and there are a few changes I was going to make in his gear, is that ok CS?

[Csjarrat]

Yeah by all means, tweak what you need. So long as it stays close to the main character concept I've no problems with a few technical tweaks. Having astral perception on the team makes my job of balancing magic against you much much easier for example!
Mantis cracks the lock with no problem but the camera is put into alert status and launches IC against slicer.

[Lumen]

I heavily debated picking up Astral perception cause Knives is getting really sick of sneaky fuckin spirits.  I'd be happy to go back and pick it up if it makes things easier.

[Csjarrat]

I think Scawire was picking it up for mantis so might want to check with him, remember you've both got qi foci in 5th if you don't want to burn power points

[Lumen]

Oh yeah!  Gotta love those things

[Csjarrat]

right chaps, i'll leave it open in case you've got anything IC you want to wrap up, otherwise lets get your karma awarded and then your 5th ed sheets tweaked and worked through ready for CH4

[Lumen]

I don't really have anything, so I'm good to wrap up.  Then I can add on the karma to 5th ed version and be ready for next chapter.

You Skawire: Is Mantis picking up Astral perception?  If not I can work it into Knives' build for 5th.

[Csjarrat]

As I haven't had an IC from Scawire I'm going to go ahead and close off this chapter, well done for surviving :-)
You both earned 4 karma for achieving your objectives and an extra 2 karma for helping the girls and doing the right thing.
Candidates ask both of you to read through zweiblumen's submission and let me know if there are any objections?
Cheers guys, next chapter starts after Christmas
