Oops. I did it again, my bad. Having the map helps a lot, though.

Well what do you guys think? Risk takin the car in with a low window of opportunity to escape undetected? I'd say I have the driving skills to get us away depending on how clogged the roadway is. It sounds like if we drive in we're going to have to make this a quick op. Be out before the officials know somethings gone down.

Second option seems a fairly good idea to me. We find a good spot across the highway outside of west side and park the car in the more corporate area. Some kind of paid parking or something we could reliably park the car for an hour or two. We walk across the road. This method is safer, but well have to travel light. It's not a long walk, but we shouldn't carry any illegal weapons with us unless we can hide them well.

Third, if Baba has a safehouse in west side we can get Taco to drop us off, I can send it home, and we can hit the target and hoof it to the safe house. We can probably travel a little heavier this way. After the mission is done, we lay low until its safe to cash in. If the star keeps tabs on who is coming and going, it might be a good idea to use one of the other cars for extraction. Just in case anyone recognizes the registration on Taco on the way out.

Those are just my ideas. What do you guys think? I'm probably done for the night, though. I work tomorrow through Saturday, so I won't be as active. I'll try to get one a day still.

Edit: Cool, that makes option 3 even better :-).

Yeah, starting to think Camm isn't going to reply before we accept the Job. So do we say yes or no to this?

I'd say yay, seems like we won't be ruffling any dangerous feathers by doing the job... unless we count voodoo maniacs called Curbstomper dangerous :)

Baba's probably gonna say yes to this job, but I'm gonna give Laereth a chance to chip in and post IC before she settles the deal with the Johnson.

Posted. Notifications are still out for me and trying to keep an eye on it. In Vancouver right now. it is 12:37pm.

I can go in in astrally with a low level fire spirit and have him manifest and light the place up. From there any one can just run up and shout fire to get people leaving. Might be pretty simple.

Baba would lose her shit if you did that. Might be interesting to play out her freaking the fuck out at Athena, or we could have her be non-specific about how she plans to magically set the fire, and Baba just never sees a spirit get involved.

At this point, Baba isn't a fan of actually setting the building on fire. Fire is slow, unpredictable, and they're on a strict time limit. She's not certain they can bring down an entire building in 6 hours in rainy jacksonville, especially if people are actively resisting our attempts to burn it down. She's more keen on using a few demo charges to take out support structures and letting it collapse in a couple seconds.

But the plan will be discussed shortly, I'm sure.

Spirits burn hot and don't need accelerants. Could have the place roasting pretty fast.

Zippy has some cram with him, but he's stuck out in the car. I could come in if no one else has any.

Considering turning up the heat on this Johnson a bit:
Quote
Quote from: Johnson
"Look, I wasn't lookin fer no fuckin' bullshit here. We got a deal or what?"
Francis looks perfectly at ease in his corner of the booth, "Settle down, we’re just making sure that we got all our ducks in a row. Like you said yourself, the house is in Krubb territory and you don’t fuck around there without giving it careful thought. Now the question is if you want to tell us what is really going on with that house, because it sure as hell isn’t just your average traphouse, ya dig?"
Anyone have problems with that plan?
Poindexter, can I roll intimidation(interrogation) to try and pump some info out of this guy?

As an excuse for this blatant meta gaming I'll couch it in the fact that Francis queries the team through the comm before going for the attack :D

rolls:
Judge intentions: Dixie Johnson: 10d6t5 5
Intimidation(interrogation): 10d6t5 5

holding off on the post until the others have had time to chime in.

just off the judge intentions, you can tell he's spooked and is thinking about running for the door. If he does, yalls reputation as well as One's will take a hit.

I dunno if intimidation is the right call. If he's spooked, then getting scarier will just make him bolt. I was going to suggest taking the job, and then talking him into being upfront about things. I imagine that'd be etiquette or negotiation.

Or we could say we'll take the job, and then offer to celebrate over some cram, since that's apparently what he wants right now.

He has an addiction, not necessarily what he wants.
