Snow hears the shots and sees Clem jerk sideways from the hit.  She draws her pistol and moves closer to her companion while keeping a watch on the hatch.  "Clem, are you OK?  Do you need medical assistance?"  She is still shaking off the effects of coming back from the matrix world.

As O’Connor races into the parking lot after the shooter, a goon that must have scuttled out from the side door pops up and has just enough time to shout “They’ve got back-up!” before Sammy’s spell slams into him.

Goon resisting stunbolt: 3d6t5 0

He takes the spell’s full effects and staggers but stays standing.

From the side door, two pistols emerge for the darkness, spitting lead at the adept.

Goons shooting at O'Connor: 4#7d6t5 2 1 2 4 1 (Forgot to adjust the pools for range, only impacted the first shot)


____________________________________

(Note: Redid the map, added a car to the front no one could see from the street where the guy who shot at Clem is hiding, and moved people their full distance for the round based on descriptions given.  Snow and Torley still have actions, O'Connor has a defense roll and then top of the order.)

Snow moves to the hatch while keeping an eye on her companion as well.  She finally feels that she is able to act normally.

When the doors opened O'Connor acted more through instinct than conscious decision. He stopped and  jerked his head back. He felt the tiny shockwave of the bullet as it passed within a few millimeters of his face. He turned to face the door and feinted left and juked right to dodge two more shots. He could tell the fourth shot would hit him in the upper sternum. but instead of moving to the side he bent over backwards. He straightened his spine, and reveal himself to be unscathed from the assault. He smiled towards the doorway.

Going to throw a composure roll out & let the GM decide how well Sam's holding up. He has to deal with a +1 threshold  modifier for this.
Composure: 8d6t5 3


Sam was not having a good night. As he and Sammy followed Con, he could feel his breath shortening, the panic starting to settle in. I am not getting paid enough for this sort of drek, he thought to himself. Suddenly, more gunshots rang out and Con started twisting wildly; Sam had to force himself to keep moving with Sammy. He shifted his stick to his left hand and reached into his jacket to pull out the Roomsweeper. To his disappointment, the weight of the heavier gun was not comforting.

Clem drew her Cobra and put her right hand in front of her eyes, motioning for Snow to shield her eyes. She also said to her partner, in a low voice, to "do some Matrix drek to give me an advantage."

So Clem will ready her firearm, motion to Snow and talk to her, and stay crouched behind the roof's ledge for the time being, waiting for her flash bang to go off.

Snow shakes her head as she covers her eyes.  "There is little that I can do in the matrix that will help at this point.  I think I am better able to support you with my weapon and medic skills for now."

Sammy had moved closer to the chain-link fence.  This gave her some protection, but it still allowed her to see the guy that was shooting at O'Connor.  Another reason to move away a bit from the charging street sammie.  Bullets that missed their intended target were indiscriminate about who else they targeted.  And it looked like the guy shooting was a member of the 'if you pump enough lead into an area you will always hit something' school of shooters.
'Let's see about that', she thought as she let go another stunbolt.


spellcasting, force 5 stunbolt
Sammy:11D6E5 → 3( 5; 4; 2; 1; 1; 2; 2; 2; 5; 3; 5;=> 3 successes against 5 )#spellcasting
DV: 5S + net hits.  He can roll willpower against me.

drain 1:
Sammy:9D6E5 → 5( 1; 5; 2; 5; 6; 3; 6; 4; 5;=> 5 successes against 5 )#drain
no damage

Snow moves to where she can be close enough to the building edge to pop up and give support to Clem in the next combat.  Since she is not looking over the edge right now, she can also keep an eye on the hatch.

The gunfire from the doorway continued on O’Connor, in spite of his Matrix inspired moves (talking about the old flatscan, not the state of existence).

Goons shooting at O'Connor again: 4#7d6t5 4 2 4 2


Then the flash-bang in front went off to some effect judging from the surprised cries than Clem and Snow heard from the roof.
The victim of the magical attack managed to retaliate, crying “Frag the mage!” unsteadily…

Goon shooting at Sammy: 2#97d6t5 4 2

…while simultaneously eating a second Stunbolt.

Goon resisting stunbolt again: 3d6t5 1

For a second, he looks like he will still keep standing before he slumps over the hood of the car, then falls out of sight, the Predator an odd hood ornament to old Comet.

He always found clarity in moments like this. when all that mattered was the next split second. The world shrank down to just him and the incoming bullets. Now that he had a bead on his opponents, O'Connor's movements were far more fluid. Instead of sudden jerky dodges, he ducked and weaved using no more motion than necessary to move out of the way. The rounds had pass him by once again. The world expanded back out, *This is good exercise, but near time to go on the offense. That last round was a bit close.*

Snow steps to the edge of the roof a few feet from Clem, lines up at one of the attackers and fires.


Shoot: 9d6t5 5  And the second shot.  Second Shot: 9d6t5 6

Her grenade going off was Clem's cue to go on the offensive. The ork poked her head out long enough to fire her SMG, aiming for whomever had shot at her only a moment ago. The stock from the firearm pressing on her shoulder reminded Clem about her days with her old family, the muzzle flash temporarily illuminating the elaborate makeup on her face.

Clem is firing short wide bursts at her attacker. First shot 〜 Firearms 4 + Agility 7 - Burst Fire 2 + Gas Vent 2: 11d6t5 6 No glitches

Second Shot 〜 Firearms 4 + Agility 7 - Burst Fire 2 - Second Burst Fire 3 + Folding Stock 1 + Gas Vent 2 + Personalized Grip 1: 10d6t5 4 No glitches

So that's 6 hits for the first shot, and 4 hits for the second shot, both of them have a -2 defence dice pool modifier due to the wide burst and both are at 5P since Clem is using regular ammo in her SMG.

Sammy had just done her spell when she felt the impact of the two bullets, despite the cover she was in.  While her armour and the fact that she was a tough ork helped, she still felt the two shots and she grunted with the impact.  Looking down she saw a red spot on her leg.  But for now she had to set this aside and continue.  As long as you could feel the pain, it was a sign you were alive.  And she had dropped the guy in such a way that they could still ask him questions afterwards.


shot 1:
Sammy:3D6E5 → 0( (4, 4, 4→ 0 successes against 5) )#dodge shot 1

so that's 9P, AP-1

armour shot 1:
Sammy:13D6E5 → 3( (4, 2, 2, 5, 4, 6, 6, 4, 1, 1, 4, 2, 1→ 3 successes against 5) )#armour shot 1
reroll misses using edge:
Sammy:10D6E5 → 4( (4, 4, 5, 1, 6, 1, 6, 3, 6, 4→ 4 successes against 5) )#use edge to reroll misses

so 2P damage

shot 2:
Sammy:1D6E5 → 0( (4→ 0 successes against 5) )#dodge shot 2

again, 9P, AP-1

armour shot 2:
Sammy:13D6E5 → 1( (1, 3, 6, 1, 3, 1, 3, 3, 4, 1, 1, 2, 1→ 1 success against 5) )#armour shot 2
reroll misses using edge:
Sammy:12D6E5 → 6( (4, 2, 3, 5, 3, 5, 5, 5, 6, 3, 6, 2→ 6 successes against 5) )#use edge to reroll misses

again 2P

so 4P damage in total.

composure roll to keep going:
Sammy:8D6E5 → 3( (6, 3, 6, 4, 1, 3, 1, 5→ 3 successes against 5) )#composure

O'Connor raised his rifle and rushed towards the door, "My turn." He fired two bursts, one at either shooter.
