Dice hated me just now...

[Csjarrat]

lol, my roll for init was hardly amazing either. the next round of rolls will be epic now!

[farothel]

If we all put our weapons in that guard's face, he'll probably surrender.  I doubt he's suciadal.

[Csjarrat]

yeah, but we don't want him hitting the silent alarm. stunbolt and he can't make so much as a squeek

[Ren]

@MaxKojote: for simplicity’s sake, in case of direct combat spells, please determine in the future with the spellcasting roll, maximum how many net hits you want to use (if there are any) for damage. Also note that the net hits used this way increase drain as well as damage. And as a side note, even though your dice pool is the same, you roll drain resistance with INT + WIL, not INT + MAG.

I’d also like to ask maximum how many net hits you may want to use now. Please bear in mind, that at Force greater than your Magic, the drain is Physical.

[MaxKojote]

@Ren: My bad. I missed the last paragraph stating the drain increase. I'll just use one net hit and take the 1P damage.

[Csjarrat]

just waiting to see how the guard reacts to an F9 stunbolt before i decide whether to riddle him with bullets or not

[MaxKojote]

Guard? What guard?

Incidentally, it would be 9 complex actions (or 13.5 seconds) to erase the signature from the spell, right?

[farothel]

Yes, you can do that while we get the package.

@Ren: there were only the two guards in the warehouse itself, right?  And please refresh my memory: did we know where the package was?  Or what it looks like?

[Csjarrat]

Yeah we knew roughly what it looked like I think

[Ren]

Yes, you had information about the packages, Tweety gave it to you (in IC). As for guards, you can't be sure there are no more until you check. Currently, no guards are in line of sight (or hearing, for that matter).

[farothel]

Well, if there are any more and they have the good sense to stay in their guard shack (or lunch room or whatever) they need not to get hurt. 

EDIT: @Ren: if I have to roll something to get the package, let me know.

[Ren]

@Farothel: the packages are currently out of reach. I don’t know what you want to do so I don’t know what kind of test you’ll need to roll.

I'll be on holiday from tomorrow until the 26th of March, probably without internet access.  Should this change (the internet access I mean, as my holiday will be canceled only if I'm in hospital or dead), I'll let you know.  GM can use my character if needed, just don't kill her off please.

Now: to my last (normally) post: I've put something together, a stack of crates.  I use the big, heavy but solid ones that should be somewhere in the warehouse.  With those I build a pyramid like structure.  Not just a single file of crates, but more crates at the bottom so they will hold.  Then I will stand on the bottom ones and only if they hold I'll move up to the top ones.  I assume given the lenght of a troll, that with 2 layers I will have enough.

Where T is Troll and C is Crate.  Another option, but only if not enough crates present is

I have internet here, but it's indonesian WiFi so it might be slow.  I'll check once per day.
