Slobbertooth finished getting the webbing off of himself and looked up at the two, clearly terrified mages.

"See ya in a sec"

He then ran behind the box in view of Torrent and Krestov and out of sight of the two mages.

"Dogs incoming."

Anything metal in your hands seems to be on fire right now, incuring a -5 to all actions unless you resist with INT+LOG

Scary Resist: Resist Illusion: 8d6t5 1 Nope, his gun feels as if its burning



To their surprise, the dogs didn't attack right away. Instead, the dog at Ying's side spontaously combusted - or at least it looked like it. An aura of blue white fire surrounded the creature. His twin on the other side barked in a surprisingly high pitched voice and suddenly every metal around the runners seemed to glow cherry red and emitted unbearable heat.
bnc noticed that the device icon of the shotgun had vanished completely from the matrix - the thing was a brick now.

[Volker]

Oh, sorry, I forgot about the spell resistance roll for SS.
bnc doesn't try to free herself if that's an action. I rolled because I don't know the spell description and I was under the impression that there is an Opposed roll in every spell in the Shadowrun universe that has a direct effect on people. If the spell hits automatically and it costs an Action to resist its effect, I would of course not try to break free.

Am I right to assume that the gun is slaved to one really tough commlink to get 12 and 10 defense dice? :-( Also I'm not sure whether Damage Resistance Tests count as Defense Tests. It sounds counter-intuitive for me that the same PAN can spend bonus dice twice against the same action. Just my thoughts on it.

I hope there are no metal components in my chameleon suite or this is going to be the worst sunburn ever.

Cursing, bnc drops her weapon. Her heart starts pounding faster as she slowly realizes the glue isn't going to release her, and their opponent survived every attack until now.

[SgtBoomCloud]

The unfolding scene seemed to wash over Krestov like some training trid, the troll simply looking up at the pair of mages and their hounds, his cold blue eyes steeled against their covered gazes as they made attempts to look intimidating.  Even as the one unloaded shot shells at his comrades, he did not flinch.  As the dogs barked and created flames around themselves and their weapons, he did not falter--if anything, the grip on his Alpha grew even tighter in bold defiance--.  And when the net fell on them to bind them down?

All that came out of his mouth was a little sigh, as his team dispersed and he realized that half of them were stuck.  He had to make a call.  They will attack the biggest threat  Was what passed through his mind as he finally snapped to, his right foot shifting his weight back, pulling at the magical net atop him.  Leveling his helmeted gaze on the man casting the spell, he opened his mouth to utter one word before he made his move.

"Dasvidaniya."

The way the troll moved next, the net may have never existed.  Breaking free in a backlash of mojo, Krestov lunged forward, shield raised towards Yin as he took two pounding steps before leaping into the air, driving his right knee up to propel him towards the duo.  Not once hesitating, he plowed his entire weight into the coming blow, driving his right heel against Yang's center mass.  Sustain this...

[Volker]

So, 2^nd round:

Yin: 32 22 (minus possible injuries)
Yang: 32 22 (minus possible injuries)
Torrent: 24 13 (injured)
bnc: 22 12
Scary Spice (Played by Volker): 21 11
Slob: 28 18 (Full Defense) 8
Dog 1: 17 7
Dog 2: 17 7
Krestov: 9



bnc smiles as she sees how the Chinese's gun goes up in smoke and ashes. The smile vanishes as quickly as it came, though, for she knows that his gun is the last thing a mage needs.

Are there any sensible drones around?

[Jack_Spade]

Ok, Troll to the face:
Yang Defense + Full Defense: 19d6t5 6 [19d6t5=5, 6, 4, 5, 6, 2, 1, 5, 3, 1, 1, 5, 1, 1, 3, 2, 4, 2, 2]
Ini is down to 12 and he still eats 12 P
Defense + Full Defense: 18d6t5 6
He is now at 7 S, has a useless gun and a Troll in his face.

Ying is furious and tries to help her brother without killing him:
Force 8 Death Touch w/Witness my Hate vs. Krestov
Force 8 Death Touch: 16d6t5 7
Resist Drain: 14d6t5 4
No drain
Defend with normal defense against the touch. If you don't beat the 7 successes you get to resist with Body against 9 P

Yang tries to get out of the melee and errects a Force 6 Physical Barrier between himself and Krestov, securing himself inside a half dome
Physical Barrier: 12d6t5 4
 [12d6t5=4, 3, 2, 2, 5, 1, 1, 1, 1, 5, 6, 6]
4 Armor and 4 Structure
Drain: 14d6t5 3
He takes another 2S for a total of 9S

A charging troll was a problem that the two mages had no smart answer for after the net spell wasn't enough to restrain Krestov.
The kick was as brutal as a small meteor. The expensive armored suit prevented Krestovs foot from breaking bone, but it sure was enough to drive the wind from the mages lungs. As he was flung backwards, the woman screamed a Chinese curse, baleful black energy coalesced around her hand as she in turn charged Krestov.

[SquirrelDude]

Important note. Before Yang gets to put up that barrier, Torrent gets his turn. He's initiative 13 and and Yang dropped to 12. He's also tied with bnc, but I don't know how that is worked out.

After all of that Initiative is now

Round 2
Yin: 32 22 12 (acted)
Torrent: 24 13 (injured) < Current Turn
Yang: 32 22 12(Full Defense)
bnc: 22 12
Scary Spice (Played by Volker): 21 11
Slob: 28 18 (Full Defense) 8
Dog 1: 17 7
Dog 2: 17 7
Krestov: 9

[Sabato Kuroi]

Trying to flank them, they get -4 dice to hear my steps and maybe -2 dice because they are distracted from the fight?
Complex Action:Sneak (Limit 8 ) (-1 dice): 20d6t5 5

So I'll go as close as I can to avoid being noticed.I guess I used at least half my movement (14m/2 = 7m) during the last Pass.
Next Initiative Pass I'll attack and hopefully they won't get a defense test

[Jack_Spade]

I won't roll perception for Yang, since those modifiers put his dice pool below the threshold. Torrent gets his surprise attack.

Yang will apply a Stim Patch with his complex action, so if Torrent wants to strike, this is the time





Torrent moved silently behind Yang, just as the mage errected the barrier between himself and the troll. Sweat had formed on the man's forehead and a thin trickle of blood flowed from his nose.

He had not noticed the elf sneaking up on him, instead he had retrieved a slap patch from his pocket and was about to apply it to his neck.

[Volker]

I'm not sure whether or not Torrent can still act or has used his Action already for his movement, but since I'm not influencing anything, I'll just post.

Unable to contribute anything important, unable to move and unable to do anything other than curse and sit down, she does the latter. bnc sits down and dives into the only world she understands.

I change into Full VR. Thus, I get another 3D6+2 initiative, plus another +2 from Golden Mirror.

Ini upgrade: 3d6+4 15

This raises my left-over initiative from 2 to 17. Still, everyone else has an INI pass before I can ... well, still do nothing, but really fast.
Are the drones equipped with anything? Do the mages have any interesting gear? I have a full simple action left for matrix perception checks. And a whole lot of Free Acitons.

[Sabato Kuroi]

That's right, I will be able to attack  in my third Initiative Pass (used a skill as a complex action)

[Jack_Spade]

Your matrix perception shows you quite a few delivery drones flying outside, but most are slaved to Rating 5 to 7 hosts.
Looking for silent running icons, you see that the mages have each a commlink, their shotguns, biomonitors, sunglasses with Smartlink, Flash compensation, Low Light Vision, Vision Magnification and a boat waiting outside.

[Volker]

Oh, sorry for missing Scary's action. He tries to finish off Yang.
Aim + Single Shot: Shoot: 15d6t5 7 (Accuracy 7)

So, that's 9P + 1 (Ex) + 7 (hits) at AP-3 for the barrier.
I take the liberty to roll for the barrier: 4 (structure) + 4 (Armor) - 3 (AP) = 5 dice: Resistance Roll: 5d6t5 4
shit
That would be 13 P for the barrier, which takes it out. The remaining damage is transferred to the target behind the barrier. So that would be 13 P - x (hits in his Defense roll), if I understood all rules correctly.

Scary remains calm and tries to focus on the one shot. He brings up his Savalette again, aims carefully, and shoots a round right at Yang's heart.

[SquirrelDude]

Resist Hot Potato
Int+Log(5): 8d6t5 2

3 net hits. -3 penalty to all actions until Slob drops the metal.
The HK-227 burned in Slobbertooth's hand as he came back to the corner of the container and took a survey of the situation. The mages weren't defeated, but they were certainly distracted for them moment. However, the two stupid dogs were still free to act.

"I'll handle pest control, but after some fun."

Slobbertooth yelled over the din of combat. "Maybe you didn't understand me the first time, so let me speak your language. You geeks got in fight with a troll and an orc, and you started out by just pissing us off. How stupid are you breeders?!" (Japanese)

Slobbertooth dropped his HK-227, channelled magic into himself, and flipped us his Ares Alpha loaded with gel ammunition and unleashed the burning gun onto the foo dog that had set it one fire. Realizing his mistake, Slobbertooth removed the gel clip from his weapon, in preparation for putting a more effective ammunition into it.

I am aware Triad are chinese and not japanese. That is the joke.

[Jack_Spade]

Defense: 7d6t5 2
So 13 S AP-1
Soak: 7d6t5 2
11 S vs. 11 Stun Trac
Dog takes a nap and spirit is disrupted. Nicely done - Real ammo would have left him 1 point from overflow to still be able to act.

Hot potato spell ends



The hail of gel bullets hit the large dog square on the face and flank and slammed it to the ground. A short feeling, not unlike a huge static build up occured and the burning sensation of all metal parts ceded. Best of all, the poor vessel dog was still alive.
