Ugh... you know what, I don't think FMD would apply anyway... It only works on attack actions. In this case, I assume that would only include things that are limited by the Attack attribute. So I don't think any resonance actions would be included since they're limited by threading level.

How messed up would it be to retcon? I figure you can just knock four dice off of my rolls and not include the dice from the earlier rolls. I just don't know how that would change things for you. It would also give Wraith another initiative pass.

No new MARKs, though I will say one of the actions against Wraith failed.

I'm not sure if you saw my previous, but I don't think it would change my action.

I'm targeting the Knight and have my combat load up (Decrypt, Encryption, Hammer, & Mugger). She's hoping to one shot, or at least really mess him up so he leaves. As such, she's going to Edge to re-roll failures.

Data Spike LOG (8) + Cybercombat (4) + Hot-Sim (2) [6]: 14d6t5 3

Data Spike LOG (8) + Cybercombat (4) + Hot-Sim (2) - Successes (3) [3]: 11d6t5 5 (Of course I couldn't get that roll first...)

Limited to a total of 6 hits.

@Jack, I did not see that post.  I am fine with ret-conning.  It's as much my mistake as anything.  Wow, attack only for FMD.  That really seems limited considering the cost.

Oddly enough, the Data Spike fails.  I am particularly surprised about that roll, but I guess that's why we use dice.

 ::) Yeah, I'm surprised too.

Well, how much did it fail by since I may now have to resist taking take damage after spending Edge.

By two for the purposes of matrix damage rebound, so two boxes of Matrix Damage.

Cyberdeck Condition Monitor: 8/10

ETA: @Poindexter, I think at Extreme Range, Lil' Rambo wouldn't have a pool to shoot with.  He has Pilot (2) + Targeting Autosoft (4) = 6 dice.  Extreme Range is a -6 penalty.  To be fair, I very well could be missing something(s), so let me know.

Yeah, i messed up the math. Lets get him into medium range instead. Thanks for catching that.

La Sombra isn't 'sneaking' so much as trying to be unobtrusive.  The goal is mostly not to be noticed by the guys who have the crowd's attention so she can get close enough to act quickly and with surprise.

The people in the crowd may or may not notice her, she is less concerned about that.

As she moves forward, she readies her gun, but still under her jacket so it isn't 'seen' while also boosting her agility (actually does that first):

Agility Boost: Magic 4 + Agility Boost 4 = 2 Hits

Runs out on the second action of the fourth round, at which point she'll take 4 points of stun (ouch) due to soaking zero of the drain.

For trying to keep the gun hidden under her jacket:

Palming: Agility 5 (+2 for Agility Boost) + 5 Palming = 0 Hits

Wow, Zero hits out of 19 dice.  Orokos is on a roll.  Thanks a lot, Orokos!  If you count the roll before it, 2 hits out of 27 Dice.

Whatever, she's too intent on her chosen path.  At least it wasn't a glitch (though there were 5 ones in that roll).

In case I don't get back to post before my next turn rolls around, Here's the deal:

1- Orders for the drone to hit extreme range are still in place. I'm probably gonna use it more for aerial imaging than anything else.

Actions for Ian's last action on 1;
Simple: Put on helmet.
Simple: Command Lil Rambo to send camera feed to me.
Free: Matrix comm team (Something to the effect of <<Aerial image incoming>>)

The Phoenix probably takes a couple of passes to grab and holster a secondary weapon and grab and ready a primary weapon from the trunk of the car?  Or maybe just one more pass, as the first pass took care of one of those.

Good point.  Considering nobody's shooting at anyone quite yet, we can probably massage any changes that The Phoenix might make to the above plan anyway.

Moving along.

Wraith 6
The Phoenix 5
Ridden Pegasus 4

@Jack, the knight doesn't seem to take any offensive action against Wraith, but the Flying Pegasus is trying to attack her.  Roll INT + Firewall.  The steed will also be trying to frag with her as well on 4, so if you want to go ahead and roll another INT + Firewall, that will save some time later. 

Action to Wraith and The Phoenix.

Matrix Defense Tests: INT (5) + Firewall (8): 2#13d6t5 2 2
Well, that certainly sucked.

Same thing I did last pass to the TM: Data Spike LOG (8) + Cybercombat (4) + Hot-Sim (2) [6]: 14d6t5 4
Hmmm... I think I'll add Edge after the fact, hoping for luck: Edge (Push the Limit) Edge (5): 5d6h5 3

Seven successes. I believe my Edge pool is now at 3/5.
