Hmm, ... okay, have to admit, that is not so overpower as I had expect after this high-end turret.

Space hasn't that guy's commlink, so someone else have to check the SIN information.

1000 for the body intact + 14,120 for his ware intact

He is still intact, although a little bit unconscious.  I guess this is a good deal and even if it isn't, I don't really have the skill to negotiate a lot (although, if I roll like on that assensing roll, I might have).

In case you want some rolls for all the stuff, Space is doing in the VR footage:

Judge Intentions: 4 hits
Perception: 7 hits
Simple Logic: 2 hits

maybe i mixed something up but was the footage not from the drone/turret? if so then how the hell can it take a video of being dismantled in 3rd person view?   ???

This was footage from the home node's security camera.
The turret itself only had some footage of the combat with Noise on it afaik.
Also, it was set to engage anyone on sight that wasn't one of the mercs. Which means Silk's original assumption that Ragley had set the drone to kill Ron Salt was wrong. Possibly it's the other way around: Ron setting it up to engage (people sent by) Ragley.

still it smells fishy to me, if you where a low level merc, ex lonestar whatever, would you invest all your free cash in one single top of the line rail drone or many standard drones, traps. i just doubt he had the connections or the cash to get this drone by himself.
good point about the targeting, but still not sold. i would believe more that he made the drone target himself, then that the whole group of mercs in the club where clones, thats just it. we could ask CJ to check the telomeres on Salt that should give us the approximate age of him.

Completely metagame: That turret's non-welded non-nanite construction and very-unlikely-to-be-real video footage that nonetheless doesn't seem edited.  Could be high-level Manipulation and Illusion magic?

I wouldn't call them low-level-mercs. We got the jump on them and managed to quietly take them down one/two at a time, only raising an alert when they were too late to get out of the gas. Their skill and training (read dice-pools) didn't seem low-level at all, neither did that 200kY platinum credstick Silk stole from the vault...



Last part, j/k ;p

magic would not show up on video, would it?

200k i thought it was just 25k, and i never really had anything to do with their dice as they never showed they faces outside the Club, guess there was just one roll when silk got shot trough the door, all others where surprise or not in IC.
then i take back anything about the mercs.  :-[

Mental illusions don't show up on video, but usually there's a more powerful physical one which does.
(eg. Invisibility works vs. people, Improved Invisibility works against camera's too.)

200kY, just a bad joke, ignore it.
I might be wrong about the mercs too, but I think I remember like 11 dice for initative; that's not amateur level I think...

they where no pushovers thats for sure, Lonestar after all, but they where no private army as well, and using uzi, that just means in my book's no enough money to get a decent weapon.

I thought I said its set to kill anyone who enters, even Salt. If not then this is the case.

The drones IF/F was nothing special, it was set to eliminate anyone but the mercs.
yep i did not find the spot where it's spoken about the turret at all, might have skipped it though.

The Drones IF/F was set to that.
The Turret was in murder death kill mode
