iirc, you get a -1 per attack you defend against, regardless of its success.

If there's 20 guys shooting at you, no matter how lousy shots they are and how good you can dodge, a couple of bullets are bound to hit you.

Just a hint to pyro: If you don't want to use your lethal ammo, you can do unarmed attacks... though with your low str you might want to invest in Shock Gloves in the future.

re: dodging - there is -1 per succesful dodge, once you get hit, the counter starts anew (at least that's the way I always played it out)
re: found mage, can anybody invest a free action into informing the rest of us of what is happening (like stalkers for the armors, and identified hostiles in the mob)
Sorry for a small delay ;)

Defense Modifiers Table, SR4A 159:
Defender has defended against
previous attacks since last action
–1 per additional defense

Defender Has Defended Against Previous Attacks
If a character has defended against at least one other attack (melee or
ranged) since his last action, apply a –1 cumulative modifier for each
additional defense roll.

Nothing about hits or misses there.

--- Just pointing out rules as I know 'em, I don't have anything against houserules or whatever the GM decides other than "Rafa suffers from a massive stroke and dies. The end." ---

"re: found mage, can anybody invest a free action into informing the rest of us of what is happening (like stalkers for the armors, and identified hostiles in the mob)"
Was playing with the idea of having Rafa simply do a UWB pulse next round, then just send the location of all weapons in the neighborhood to the team. Should give a pretty clear idea of who's an enemy and who's just people.

posted my action.  Sorry for the delay, but I've only just gotten home.  5 cm of snow and suddenly nobody in this country knows how to drive anymore.  Took me almost 3 hours to do a 35 minute trip.  :(  :o  Well, at least I'm home.  there are right now still more then 1000 km of traffic jams.

Metagame here,
#1 Comlink is at Sanchez pocket, but the 4 nodes near him become corrupted when he was put on ice by Freya, so you have at least one free simple action, but i think that you can have even two, as you saw it happening anyway.

Sorry for not thinking of including matrix view in the narrative.
Prepare for the worst, hope for the best and expect nothing!

I've adapted it that I'm following a connection from the node I've just scanned.  If I recall correctly there were two connections, so the other should still be open.  If I've seen one drop, I'll keep the rolls and take the other.

Belgium really is quite pityful when it comes to snow and ice...  going to be a very quiet week in the store.

Anyhow, here's me posting on my new Asus Transformer Prime!

Of course, with a toddler in the house it'll soon be confiscated to use for talking animals and get all sicky and stuff... :)
