No spirits manifested, so you shot towards the guy.  I edited the IC post to better reflect the destruction, but there is nothing to indicate you hit the guy behind the wall.

Forty carries on with suppresive fire (lasts all turn so long as she doesn't move or take a different action)

[Yok]

Thanks for the clarification.   Henway will move at a run to get a line of sight on the mage and hold his fire unless a spirit manifests, in which case he'll target the spirit with burst fire(-2 DV, 9P base damage,-2 AP, -1 Recoil, -2 dice movement)

Burst Fire vs. Manifested Spirit: 7d6t5 0

Here's hoping no spirits manifest!

Posting when I can find time,

If other folks want to go ahead with their actions (mostly Turkish and agleam) then I'll encapsulate.  Or, my next posting opportunity I'll move forward with what I think it's mostly likely you are going to do

[Agleaca]

Firing at the mage i assume 14 dice so 7 hits http://orokos.com/roll/366596
-5 def 10s dmg -6arm
hopefully that all works out

[WillAsher]

On my next action I am going to switch to AR, grab my rifle and Observe in Detail out the window of the van looking for the target and any other threats:  7d6t5 2 hits

Also, just in case rolling to see through invisibility: 13d6t5 2 hits, really???

[Turkish]

I am going to be traveling over the next few days.  I will post to the best of my ability when necessary.

I forgot about Harry!  Assuming he's taken no penalties in the spirit brawl:

     Harry attack (Will+ACombat=12)   Harry (spirit) A. attack: 12d6t5 5
     Harry defense, (Int+log=12) Harry (spirit) A. defense: 12d6t5 1

If Harry is taking penalties, just go and roll .... not like Forty knows what is happening over there currently.

So, wow.  I expected to be busy this week, but not this excruciatingly badly.

It's 10:50 pm California time.  So I've been working every day since last Tuesday.  I guess last Saturday was sort of a day off?  Not really, the bulk was our unit flight to California, but we were up and in uniform at early o'clock and upon arrival sat in briefings to acquaint us with the post.

So we're doing this 'Staff Level' exercise, and it turns out no one knows what the f they are doing, so I've been in the 'office' at 7am after breakfast at the dining facility and then leaving 'office' at 10pm or later.  That's pretty much been every day this week.  Tuesday we got out at 8pm

I'm officially out of laundry and will try to do some tomorrow.  If I can find a free machine.  Good times.

And there is no sign that it's not going to be like this for the next four nights.  Wednesday ends the training exercise and then Thursday will be a regular length day and then Friday the flight back home.  Then we'll work over the weekend again.

Last night I tried to get on but I guess the forums were down so now I'm trying to get caught up tonight and give you guys a little something.  I am also frustrated that I don't even have enough time to take half an hour to post on some forums.

The irony is that once we're actually overseas, everything will calm down once we find our battle rhythm.  We'll still have 14 hour days, but we;ll be able to find 3-4 hours within those 14 hours to take for ourselves, and maybe even swing the shifts a bit because that 14 hour requirement is office manning, not necessarily everyone has to be there the whole time.

Meanwhile, in game:

Kachina needs to soak 8 physical.  The spirit had a shit roll last time and a great one this time.

Spirits are fighting.

Bullets zoom around this guy but he seems to be charmed or something as they miss.

09 Amerind Mage (Enemy)
08 Ravener
06 VanGuard
05 Harry (Spirit)
01 B Spirit (Enemy)
00 Forty
00 Henway
00 Drones
00 Kachina
00 Angus

@JM: a few questions..

• Has the mage moved from the stairway?
• What kind of cover does the mage have with respect to Ravener, my bumblebee, and Harry?
• What sort of movement is required for us to clear/reduce cover, if needed?
  

[Beta]

Bad enough to have that much loaded on you; worse when there is wasted time as well    Best wishes on getting through this stretch with nerves and sense of humor intact.

In game, Forty has only used one free action this turn, she gets to take one more as I understand it, so a short message to warn people that she can't keep up suppression fire longer (takes 20 bullets, clip holds 30, so can't ever do more than one turn with this gun).

[Yok]

I'm traveling for work over the next couple of days, but I'll be trying to pay attention.

Not sure what actions (if any) that I have left at this point, but if Henway can continue to move for line of sight or to get within melee range of the mage, that's what I'm going for, with melee range  being the primary goal since we want this guy alive.

[Jayde Moon]

100+ hour work week, my brain is fried.

But we finished today, and tomorrow we're flying home.  Hopefully find time this weekend to really move things along.

[Turkish]

No worries here, be sure to get some much needed rest!
