Judge Intentions on Alzmer. Judge Intentions Charisma 4 plus Intuition 4=8 Dice (8d6.hits(5)=4)

You don't get the sense he is trying to mislead you.

[Reminder]

Now that the holiday has passed I will try and reboot this this weekend (just in time for New Years of course) and get us back on track.

[JackVII]

I'm back from vacation. Looking forward to getting this going.

All right, you are approximately 20km outside of Mombasa at this point, travelling west. Ultra just scorched a spy drone that was in the vicinity. There is one more hidden icon out there if you choose to try to ID it, Ultra, you've got one shot left at this point before you run outta dice, or you can choose to ignore it, or do something else if you are concerned about it.

Mlinzi has a beast spirit floating around the astral.

You now know what you are needing to obtain, and the location(s) of the mines in question.

Ultra is driving the lead vehicle with Mlizni in tow, Frenchy the trail vehicle with Alzmer in the middle, and Hunter on the passenger side.

It is now 1100ish. If you guys want to do other things at this point, go for it. Otherwise if you are content I can advance your travel west.

[JackVII]

I don't know about you guys, but I don't really like the thought of that other hidden icon following us. With that said, I have nothing to offer to try and take care of it.

[Crunch]

Depending on the terrain we could try to lose it with a little defensive driving...

Or we could split up the vehicles and attempt to mouse trap it.

[Reminder]

Honestly, Ultra really should take the third roll, with 4 dice, before you try anything overly weird.

Also, commlinks have data processing attributes, so unless you pc has a rating one piece of crap (or you are Mlinzi) any of you can make the same int+computer roll he is (subtracting 1 die if you are defaulting). Ren would have 4 dice, crunch 3.

To save you time, since someone mentioned asking alzmer, he won't know (that doesnt mean its not in the gear, just that he doesn't know about it if it is)

4d6 + 4d6 edge (8d6.hitsopen(5,6)=3)
try again lol. put a point of edge into it so ultra is now down to 3 edge

[Reminder]

Well, I took mercy on you and rolled twice since the first time the opposed got 100% hits.... (I told you my gm dice are way better than my player dice).

You find the icon of a stealth tag on the Nomad. Given it's location on the rig, it likely took a few hours at least to put into place, requiring disassembly to get to. (Meaning basically it was on the vehicle before it was loaded into the shipping container and onto the ship.)

[JackVII]

Is your agent allowed to make rolls? I think you tried that in your first roll, but not after that. Just wondering if I missed an explanation somewhere.

Edit: In that case, I think the first logical leap is that it is just Johnson wanting to keep tabs on where his equipment is. Probably would be bad form to zap it (at least at this point in time). Then again, the drone could have been Johnson's too, LOL.

[Reminder]

I think the first logical leap is that it is just Johnson wanting to keep tabs on where his equipment is.

That's a logical assumption. What you choose to do about it is up to you.

[Reminder]

He doesn't know anything about it...he doesn't know a whole lot about "running" in general. He's an academic.

[Reminder]

So it was "probably" placed by the Johnson or his confederates. Are you going to leave it alone or nuke it?

You could try and mark and trace it, but since stealth tags can be set to no owner, the chances of that working are almost nil.

[Reminder]

If you are talking about a spoof command, I am not sure how that would work, since it requires a mark on the owner and the tag has no owner.  Thoughts?


Options (assuming it doesn't have an owner) if you want to disable without destroying it would be to erase the marks off it, or reboot the device (which would get rid of the marks), since that would prevent tracing of the icon. Of the two reboot is probably the faster option. There doesn't seem to be a way to leave the marks on it and make it appear as though it is someplace else.

Or you could nuke the thing.

Or you could just leave it alone.

CS, I get the feeling they are leaving this one up to you as to what you want to do.

[Csjarrat]

i'm for bricking it tbh. i dont want the option of corporate eyes on us if it can be avoided.
how do you see jamming affecting a tag? the other option i guess would be to just point a jammer at it?
