OOC:

As you might have heard/read: There was a rather severe earthquake in Nepal.

I sincerely hope Volker is OK/not in immediate danger, but I expect he'll have at the very least problems to get access to reliable internet service.

So we will finish this scene and afterwards have a one week hiatus or until Volker can send a life sign.

I really hope Volker is OK

[SgtBoomCloud]

I concur on the hiatus.  Least we can do.  Also hoping Volker is alright.  The magnitude, proximity, and rolling casualtycount I will admit has me nervous...

[SquirrelDude]

A hiatus until we get word seems like a good thing to do.

[Volker]

Hey, dudes!

Thank you very much. Luckily, I'm not only alive, but also unharmed, and so are all the children we care for, the other volunteers and basically everyone I know. So there's no need to worry.

Still, I think we will have to invoke a hiatus, I'm afraid. Until now, we were busy keeping the kids safe and sound. Now that the immediate danger is over, I will try and do what I can to help down in the city, where people die like flies. I'm sure you'll understand that shadowrun has the least priority for the next couple of days.
Sorry for the trouble, and see you soon!

[Jack_Spade]

I'm really glad to hear that/from you.

Take your time. It's great to know that you can help (let me know if there is a way to help you and your colleagues from the comfortable safety of my European home)

Just give us a shout when you are back to relative normalcy and we will continue our game.

[Sabato Kuroi]

Really happy to see you're safe mate!


You have my respect for all the good work you are doing there! I wish you the best, see you soon.

[Volker]

I wished ;-(

We've been trying for three days to help rebuilding, treating patients or whatever. Now we're about to give up - they sent us away at every place. I guess I can post today...

Loved the post, squirrel.  Just one thing...

Wasn't the armory on the fifth floor with bnc and Krestov, whereas Slob, Torrent, and Schmitt are on the first floor?

[Jack_Spade]

Correct, and also: Your magic fist might be strong, but you'd need a bit more power to get into that secure locker (we are talking about reinforced material: You'd have to beat armor rating 12 before you'd have a chance to damage it. For reference see p. 197)

[Sabato Kuroi]

That's what Smashing Bolow(from street grimoire) is for

[SgtBoomCloud]

Well...I'm feeling pretty dense right now XD wow.

Also, Jack, who of us snatched the military grade armor? Last I checked we hadn't addressed that yet...?

[Jack_Spade]

Your dense feeling might continue once you realize the truth...

Wasn't exactly expecting it to work, but figured that's what Slob would do if he was there.

We could be going down a straight hallway, and I still would get lost.
