Do I? AGI + Gunnery is even a rule book example, if I remember correctly. This would extend my dice pool A LOT.

[EDIT: I managed to reinstall Windows. It says: "For example, firing a drone-mounted weapon at a target requires a Gunnery + Agility test"]

I'm away from my books at the moment, but I vaguely remember, that agility is only used if you fire a mounted weapon yourself. Maybe it was in an errata. I'll look it up when I return home tonight.

Since I electroluted him anyway, I guess this question can wait. I'd be a lot more interested in whether Tartaros and Kerberos tore me apart or no.

Found it: p.183

"The rules and modifiers for ranged combat apply to vehicle-mounted weapons. Vehicle-mounted weapons are fired using Weapon Skill + Agility [Accuracy] for manual operation, like door guns on mounts, or Gunnery + Logic [Accuracy] for remote operated systems. A Complex Action is required for shooting weapons mounted on a vehicle in any firing mode."

Oh and for the hosts reaction:

Your Ini: 10+4d6=16

Since you failed a sleaze action, it has a mark on you at 16 and gets one attack in, before you can jack out:
A Blaster (Ini: 16+4d6=16=32, -10 for late action)  trys to hit you:
14d6.hits(5)=4

Your defense:
10d6.hits(5)=4
You barely avoid the attack, the door opens, and Krestov jacks you out:

Dumpshock: 6 P
10d6.hits(5)=5
You suffer 1 point of physical damage and you'll be disoriented for 5 minutes

If you'd rather try to jack out yourself, you'll be up next against a Black IC (Ini: 16+4d6=15= 31 -10)

@GM

I guess the intruder will attack with -5 dice pool penalty right?(-2 agility and -3 from being in melee)

Just trying to decide if I should go on full defense or not

As a first, I will apologize for my lack of posting.  Slow troll is slow >.>

That being said, good instincts on what Krestov would have done, Jack :)  bnc will likely be pissed off (I think), but protective instinct would have taken over.

Please consider Krestov to be providing heavy cover to bnc.  Full defense. (since this drops my initiative to one pass guaranteed, any objections to me not rolling init?)

Acutally, I'm absolutely find with getting jacked out. Anyway, since bnc doesn't have a choice in this regard, neither should I. Also, it's a lot more dramatic this way. Thanks ;-)

@GM

I believe that the initiative for 2nd pass is

Slobber-18
Intruder-12
Torrent-9 (full defense plus wound penalty)

bnc is going to reorganize herself for the rest of the combat round in which she was thrown out.
Next combat round, I'd like to participate again.

INI: INI roll: 1d6+7 13

I'm not sure what I have to do to fire the drone again, since I don't know how you want to rule the jacking-out.
Following options:
  • I got thrown out of the system and have to reboot the whole deck to go online: Then I use Reboot Device as my first Complex Action and use the next one to either a) Hack the drone (if I cannot reclaim the invitation) or b) Fire the drone (if I can)
  • I got thrown out of the host and the Virtual reality, but I'm still online in AR. Then I will fire the drone immediately (dicepool = 13 - 2 (disorientation) = 11).
  • I got thrown out of the system (and the host) but don't have to reboot entirely. Then I would use one Simple Action to Switch Interface Mode to VR (she's quite bright, but resistant to learning from mistakes) and use the second Simple Action to fire (13 dice).
  • anything else: I'll do something else, obviously.

I'll go with option two: You still have the drone, since you can request a legit mark again from Hank.

If I see it correctly, Torrent does have an attack before the intruder can act again.

Jack, unless you're willing to work something out, That GLORIOUS 12P -4AP 4RC   SF-21 is classified as a HMG, which falls under the Heavy Weapons category (something I regretfully didn't buy).  At best, I'd have 5 dice unless something can be arranged?  (at this time I envy Volker for the european connection :P )

Yeah, that's right. He's Bavarian which is kind of an Austrian honoris causa ;-)
