I am just reacting...
Code was reaching for the knob, when the shot came, so I rolled to the side went into VR and jumped into the drone.
as soon as I settle in, and preferably faster, I'd have the drone jump through the door before something else happens (like a blowing off the top floor, as a security measure )

basically Code just rushed in without much thinking (that shooting get him going really)
BUT if you have any other ideas, just shout IC.

Grounding that knob shouldn't be very difficult, and that shotgun, cannot have unlimited ammo.
I can have blimp to hover from outside and take a look inside to see what the hell is shooting at us, and is it possible to enter outside it's shooting angle.

The secretary-bot will be in a front room with the main office behind it.  Seeing into the window will not be possible though.  That would be a major security lapse if someone could just see into executive offices...

[Sentinemodo]

They've been installing smoking hot secretaries these days you know

Well these are pre-Renraku-shutdown androids.   You know, before people got all uptight about robots taking over.

Since it has activated, maybe it has also activated her wifi receiver? Is her node visible for hacking?

[Xzylvador]

No, I just thought that since we misinterpreted the door's condition, you'd adjust your actions accordingly.
(I mean, if you know beforehand the doberman will be shattered instead of the door, you probably won't try the jump...)

[Sentinemodo]

I still think that the drone should be to breakthrough. Doesn't mean I can't be wrong and it will just splatter on it just to get another bullet.

Assensing 3, Intuition 2 (5d6.hits(5)=2)
Seeing if Code is wounded or dead or such... and he's okay.

It's a barely-functioning 4-legged walker drone meant to be a mobile gun platform.  It has no melee capability and isn't designed with that sort of thing in mind.  I'd think it's hard-pressed to even jump with something like this.

Let's see if I can't sketch up a good doberman.



Something like that isn't going to be battering down any security doors.

Can't see the picture, but all right, edit in progress

Aww.. 

Can you not see anything from tinypics, or is it just a work thing?

[Sentinemodo]

no that's work thing. I have just reloaded the page. pretty cool picture

Here's a demolitions test for putting platic explosives on the door.   This cuts the armor in half. Demolitions (commercial) 3 + Logic 3 = (6d6.hits(5)=4).  That means the effective rating of my explosives is 7.  I'll attach 9kg making the damage square-root(9) x 7 = 21P.  I'll rig up a directional blast into the door and if it blows threw, the shrapnel makes the drop off -1P/m. 

If this is doable then once everyone has some good cover i'll let her rip.

[Xzylvador]

Holy f*ing christ.

Devoted's not thinking straight and has 0 experience anyway, so he won't comment... but you do realize this will utterly destroy any possible chance at finding valuable loot for the first time in this run, right?

[Kontact]

Yeek!

I'm guessing I over did it.  The door's just hardwood, like structure rating 7 and armor rating 6.  That's enough that I didn't think the beat-up bot could just pounce it down, but it's not a blast door or anything.

If you want to retcon the size of the charge, I'm with that, but otherwise, BooM!  There goes the room!

Door soak!
DV =21 x2 because it's explosive - 42DV
6d6.hits(5) → [5,1,6,5,4,3] = (3) so, net of 39 DV, making a 5 meter hole in the wall.

Floor will soak at only 1x because it wasn't tamped to blow the floor.

soaking 21dv -4dvx1m damage with 12 armor
12d6.hits(5) → [3,3,5,4,2,3,3,4,3,2,1,2] = (1)

whew.  with 11 structure rating, 16DV only makes a 1 meter hole in the floor. 

Wall to the conference room takes 21 -4x2= 13DV 
8d6.hits(5) → [1,4,6,1,6,5,6,3] = (4) 9DV is just enough to make a 1 meter hole in a 9 structure.

Ceiling also takes 13DV
12d6.hits(5) → [2,2,6,5,5,3,4,5,1,1,6,1] = (5) soaks down to 8DV.  holds, but is damaged.

Meanwhile, inside the room, 42DV becomes a 21DV flechette spray. 

Ms. Phipps is 4m from the door, in partial cover, but unaware of the attack, so she auto-parrys with her face.
Soaking 17(f) +5ap.
15d6.hits(5) → [2,6,3,3,3,6,5,1,1,2,2,5,5,4,3] = (5)
She takes 12P, and is scrapped.  Poor Ms. Phipps.
