for future reference. If anything is known to me due to my awesome perception, I share that information with rest of the team the fastest possible way. I'll ofcourse not talk with them in front of negotiated person, but will share the info when he left. if there is a time pressure like in combat, I'll reserve myself right to decide whether I spend the free/simple action on talking/signalling, but otherwise, my knwoledge is theirs (and this is true regardless of any internal quarells we might have).

secondary, you're correct, I've got no dodge skill.
I assumed as much or Rafa would have been surprised, nasty bullet shaped surprise.
About the dodge, I was a bit surprised, had forgotten it. :p good that Rafa Decided to play drone-ball, not you :D

Overkill, maybe ::), but that is all part of something bigger. Also this will not be your fight, the club security is already sending out It's drones for a firefight in the sky, you can stick around or use the following confusion to leg it.

I'm sorry, but I somehow missed:
* when did we leave that room?
* did we all leave it at once?
* how much time did the legwork take, and while the ladies have apparently been at it, what did the rest of the team do?
* are we inside, or outside now? In a garden?

kouryuu, can you polease clear those details up? :)

We are in the garden, the legwork was 1.5h long, how we came. To the garden is not determined, but i asumed all at once after the party was starting to end. And while the ladies did legwrking you might just enjoyed the party chatted amoungyourselves, Rafa did a crazy dance. :)

Crazy? That was dancing like the pro's do it!

Anyone with legal knowledge know if we can sue the club for being shot at while on their grounds? *grin*

Trying to pluck the drone out of the sky: 9 Str + 3 Edge :: Agi 8 + Skill 8 + 2 Subdual Unarmed attack (Attacking for subdual -> grabbing the target) <-- May need dice pulled, dependig in result of 1st roll. (12d6.hits(5)=4, 18d6.hits(5)=7)
So I make the test to reduce the jump penalty.
7 Hits to grab the eyeball drone. (I'm really hopinh this thing doesn't have enough lift to fly off with Rafa hanging from its side!!!)

I'll narrate if you give me the result... or you narrate, as you wish :)

They actually can sue you for breaking the peace, they can argue that attacking the small drone provoked the shot :P

So the run down:

Mini Target
Quote from: Mini Target (AR 161)
Mini targets include minidrones, very large insects, small rodents, and similar small animals. Apply a –4 dice pool modifier.

Also  i am confused about that :
Agi 8 + Skill 8 + 2 Subdual
did not find it in rules :S but you can check the result and narrate the event the drone defense is here, if i have forgoten something just say so :)

Full Melee Defense
Pilot 5 + Defense 4 + Defense 4 + 2 Running  15d6.hits(5) = 6

All attributes are 5
I'ts running Stealth and a few autosofts - Defense, target, clearsight.
it's running Pilot R5
If i have forgotten something just ask.
Edit: Also you got the ID of the rigger :)

If it's encrypted or not, but from all this I assume it is.

Also did Rafa manage to capture the drone or not?

it depends on the +2 with them he still has 7on6 without them it's 5on6
as far as i know subdual you do not get extra dice, but maybe he has some.
according to his sheet he should have only 16 dice not 18, but will see when he comes back :)
i trust he knows his math :D

shouldn't there be  -1 for succesful defense in previous attack? (been a while since I knew the rules by heart)

The dalmatian Did not use SA firing yet,
Rafa is on IP 3 so he has the new move and the defense has ended :) he can make a new interrupt :)

Drone and Rafa both got 3IPs, so that should've reset.
The +2 is from Gecko Hands.

For holding, but you have to catch it first, so a normal unarmed attack
Agi + Unarmed attack ir required :)


Quote from: Subd uing (Melee Only) 20th 161
Sometimes, characters will find it necessary to subdue an opponent without beating him into unconsciousness. To do so, the attacker must engage in subduing combat.To subdue a character, resolve melee combat normally. If the attacker successfully hits, compare his Strength + net hits to the defender’s Body. If the attacker’s total exceeds the defender’s Body, the attacker grapples and immobilizes the defender. This subduing attack causes no damage to the defender.
and i think the +2 goes onto the second roll not the first. :)

That seems really weird... for a number of reasons:
- if the first attack isn't the test to see if you can get a grip (grapple) then why doesn't it do damage?
- if it doesn't do damage and is not a grapple test, then it's a test to see if I touch it... so I'd get a +2 touch-only attack modifier! :p
- the Gecko Hand says it gives a +2 dice pool modifier... only the first test is a roll requiring a dice pool. The second is simply Str+nethits vs body, just an amount vs an amount, no dicepools here.

In any case, you're the GM, your call is final!

as understand it is if you get the touch, but the gecko hand do not help in any way to be more precise or the do not make your reach bigger, the just simply help you hold on to something,  but your point on the dice pool in the text is valid so you get the +2 :)

Yay!

Though I'm kind of starting to doubt whether Rafa grabbing the thing is actually a good thing.  :-\

You doing the IC?
