I suppose the language there is really vague.  The concealability -2 business might be for when it's in active use?

Let's say that's what's up.  It should take a ready weapon action to get it into "active use" position, but when it's not in use, the window is up and opaque.

Sounds cool to me

[funkytim]

So we gonna go after Vanian?

[Kontact]

I suppose we should get to hacking.

You know the name of the apartment complex, so finding it's public node should be no chore.  We'll skip that.

Analyze for node stats should be a gimmie as well.  You're looking at Firewall 4, analyze 3. 
You shouldn't need more than a user account to add your names to the guest list.  You'll need security to alter logs and camera feeds.

Sorry guys, I just picked up a second job and don't think I'm going to have time to devote to pbp anymore for the forseeable future   Time to dig out some alt players I guess.

[Kontact]

Thanks for the heads up. 

Here's to hoping that things cool out for you, or that you get a job where you can screw around on the internet all day.

Well, it's not all bad.  2nd job is helping at a new local game store.  And they're carrying Shadowrun

[funkytim]

Good luck Xarin.  Looks like we're down to three party members now.  Johnny and Mary haven't posted in a long time and our hacker has to leave.  I would like to keep going.  What's the next step?  Can we finish this without a hacker?  Maybe we should just go visit Vanian anyway.  We could alert Alpha to keep KE off us for a few minutes.

[Kontact]

3 on and 3 off.

You guys want to double up on characters?

I can talk you through any rules you feel weak with.

[funkytim]

I'm okay with that.  Who want's play what role.  I'll willing to play either the face, hacker or add more muscle.  I'm gonna need some help though because the only rules I have besides the core book is Street Magic. 

[Cato]

I'm ok with either doubling up or going with the three.

As a heads up for Kontact, I'll be unavailable for the entire month of October.  So if anything needs to change based on that, thats ok to.  I meant to send a PM about it earlier, but upon reviewing things to do noticed that I hadn't.

If we double up and I'm still in I can go with any role, but preferably not the muscle .

[Kontact]

So, would you rather pick up and play with someone else's character, alter their character a bit to make it your own, or just make a few new ones?

Alternately, Jinx could take over hacking duties with a bit of extra points, Switchback could be a primary face without too much addition and Ghost is a mage, and mages are deadly as hell.  He just needs a few foci to be a terror. 

I little more here and there, and the 3-man team could do pretty well..

[funkytim]

I up for anything that keeps us going.  How would you propose continuing with the three man team?  I love improving my character but I like it better when I earn it.  I'd feel much more comfortable in combat with just a couple of sustaining foci.  I'd would also be much tougher if I had some bound spirits to command.  Then again, we haven't gotten into a fight yet.

[Cato]

It might be fun to roll with the 3 man team that we already have.  It would certainly make a few parts more interesting anyway.  I'm ok with doing it either way though.

[Psikerlord]

Hey all I'd like to keep going but am struggling with just the rigging rules - I can't handle hacking on top of that right now!

So perhaps if our hacker could become an NPC...? (Or bring in another hacker player? )

But otherwise I'm enjoying things and would like to see what happens next ...
