I've planned to do a search myself, still going to, just to be legit.
Tear jerking, Japanese Ork? He's my guy, I have a few Japanese Ork characters of my own and prejudice is a biatch for them.

Oh, and thanks for the kind thoughts from Freya, now my hurt feelings are healed!  ::)   ;D

No, he has not. he has been open and earnest with you, and he wants some smart thinking protectors not the rubbish from beat cop, so he pays a bit extra and gets Shadow economy flowing, and possibly some favours in there for him as well. but he does not think some one would be dumb enough to try to get inside the shooting or attack a shadow-runner team to get his stuff.

I'll roll ini to see who's acting first. Presumably, I'll not be me, so if anyone does anything game-changing, I'll edit.

Ini (7d6.hits(5)=1)

So it's 8.

Anyone who want to do something before this event you ar welcome to post it and INI would be nice.

P.s. I am going by the book here until i feel more sure of myself and can go more free form, so this is the next scene, but if you want to do something in between like using the 1k you got from Slade to buy somthing or have a chat with Big Ben, or whatever just say so, i am here to please you and myself, not only me.

Init (10d6.hits(5)=1) Total Init: 11

Yesterday: Rafa spends some money on gel rounds. Since they'll be protecting stuff most likely near a lot of witnesses and camera's, they might come in handy.
(Almost feels cheesy buying them now, after seeing  we're being swarmed by a mob, but I could swear I bought them for Rafa, apparently didn't.)

As for actions on set: I'm imagining a movieset, which usually has tons of girders and other stuff high in the air with lightning and all kinds of technical stuff in it. Could Rafa find a spot anywhere up there with a good overview? Don't care how hard it is to climb, he'll manage. Rafa will keep his eyes on the gear and nothing else, he doesn't care about some damned movie anyway.
Can we get gear inside? I imagine smuggling in weapons won't be difficult considering we're carrying cases full of movie equipment and I don't think sensors can really differentiate between top-grade props and actual weapons.

Init 5 (yes that's five) -> 5d6.hits(5)=1 that is total of 6 but with a glitch. so I'm either completely surprised or just last regardless of init.

There are a couple of things I'd like to do before we start the job:
-set-up a secure network between us
-ask Big Ben to be put on the network of the security, so we know what's going on.

initiative: init 8 (8d6.hits(5)=2), so initiative 10 in total, 2 IP

So we are holding up this situation but still roll INI until all preparations are done.
will you have the time to bring the connection up just in a few hours?

and more importantly do you think everyone would agree to that, as this job seems easy and until now there is no indication that you will be working together for a period of time.

As far as I know I don't even have to go on the other commlinks.  It's more like a teleconference thing, where everybody subscribes to a utility (run on my commlink I assume, as it's the best one) and they simply hear what the other say.  I use it almost every day in RL at work (with a normal phone of course) and it's just a number to call and a password to enter and you're in (I can provide them with the password to access the utility, it won't let them access anything else).  I was planning on setting this up anyway, just in case during our guard duty a couple of people were in a different room (or patrolling outside of a warehouse), so we can still talk to them easily.  Give me five minutes and it's set-up (I even assume that I still have something like that on my commlink from my smuggling days as they would also use a thing like that).

It doesn't have to be super encrypted, that's indeed something to set-up later (with encryption keys changing at irregular intervals and stuff like that).

As for me going on the teleconferencing utility of the security people, if they say no, it's no.  I'm not going to hack them (at laest not now, maybe later to review the logs and see why they weren't there).

How would you set up a secure network? What are the steps involved?

And for the record (I tried to suggest that in IC, but it changed a little) Eddy starts every day the same: wake up, breakfast, summoning spirit. Until I change it, that will be a F6 Man spirit with Increase Reflexes and Shapechange. We had plenty of time between the meeting with Slade and the meeting with BB, so I assume Eddy could summon the spirit and treat any wounds he got from it. I'll do a few rolls in advance and use it either in every morning or maybe at night, if I feel protection is needed (Summon, Resist, Resist Drain and First Aid if needed):

Summoning Spirit of Man X4 (13d6.hits(5)=5, 13d6.hits(5)=6, 13d6.hits(5)=1, 13d6.hits(5)=1)

Summoning Spirit of Man X4 resits (6d6.hits(5)=3, 6d6.hits(5)=3, 6d6.hits(5)=2, 6d6.hits(5)=3)

Summoning Spirit of Man X4 drain resit (10d6.hits(5)=4, 10d6.hits(5)=5, 10d6.hits(5)=4, 10d6.hits(5)=2)

Summary:
First try: 2 services, 2P drain, easily healed by first aid
Second try: 3 services, 1P drain, same
Third: no spirit, no drain
Fourth: no spirit, 4P drain, first aid when the situation comes

Farothel, there is no really necessary to get a conference call going as a preparation it simple happens, you might just suggest every subscribes to it.
other thing would be if you wanted to slave their links to yours so they would enjoy your protection.

Aalith, just one unbound spirit is possible, so keeping the first one.

Just a confcall seems good for now... Rafa for one won't agree to open his link to anyone yet.

Kour, can Rafa find a spot? I know we've been designated a place to stand, but he'll just vanish and climb up, hiding himself above the set or anything nearby.

Infil + Agi + Ninja, once for getting away from the designated spot (if required), second for hiding above (12d6.hits(5)=5, 12d6.hits(5)=6)
First probably gets a some modifiers to be spotted because of being crowded & blandness and after a couple of meters, chameleon.
Spotting the second probably gets penalties for chameleon gear and other possible mods (dark up while bright below?).

Some climbing dice: Skill 6, Str 9, Feet 2, Assisted (gecko) 2 (19d6.hits(5)=10, 19d6.hits(5)=3, 19d6.hits(5)=8, 19d6.hits(5)=6, 19d6.hits(5)=8)

Will narrate IC when I know what he can/can't pull off.
