Xzy. gets the first others will follow soon




Kay then.
 Kour, they walking close enough together for Rafa to attack 'em at the same time with split dicepool?
If so: he'll try to sneak up behind them and attack 'em both at the same time. Not including "charge" bonus since I'm trying to be sneaky. If I can charge while sneaking, should be two extra dice on both attacks.
Infiltration, 2 x Melee + Agi 16. Split to 8, +1 knockdown (martial arts). DV = 7S+Nethits vs Impact (12d6.hits(5)=4, 9d6.hits(5)=2, 9d6.hits(5)=3)

Hoping for surprise so they can't defend. If both attacks hit: taking a follow-up attack, sacrificing Rafa's next action:
Split melee attack 16/2 = 8 + 3 opponent prone (11d6.hits(5)=3, 11d6.hits(5)=7)



perception of the guards = 1 and 2

You are able to sneak up on then halfway to the door downstairs, so you roll surprise, Pending your surprise roll the guards are yours to narrate :)

They defend but not full defense, not yet.

Guard suprise = 13 and 16

Guard dodge if not suprised = 4 and 7

Soak when needed = 2 for both

Sorry, didn't realize this'd need surprise since Rafa is well aware of their presence but they not of his (they failed perception). I guess I get the +6?
Surprise, 10 + 6? (16d6.hits(5)=5)
Puts Rafa at either 14 (10 dice) or 15 (16 dice). Rerolling with edge since Rafa really wants the element of surprise for the team and wants 'em down before they can call .
Edge in case of 10 dice.(6d6.hits(5)=1) 15 surprise (10 dice)
Edge in case of 16 dice. (11d6.hits(5)=3) 18 surprise (16 dice).

So, well, up to you; attack rolls already made in the first post. I'm kind of stuck on the damage dealing and need GM ruling for it.
Rafa deals P damage on melee attacks and S damage on a knockdown attack. He doesn't want to kill these guys, so the first (split) attack he'll do as knockdown.
There's nothing saying knockdown attacks can't be done on someone who's prone, so I could just say "second knockdown attack" and be done with it, but I don't know if you'd have problems with that. If you do, is there a way for Rafa to deal non-lethal damage with his melee attacks by holding his punches or trying to hit non-lethal locations?

I'm waiting for the results of my looking into the guard's commlink.  But Kour is from latvia, and with the temperatures there his computer is probably frozen  :) (pun intended).  :)

Hoping for surprise so they can't defend. If both attacks hit: taking a follow-up attack, sacrificing Rafa's next action:
Split melee attack 16/2 = 8 + 3 opponent prone (11d6.hits(5)=3, 11d6.hits(5)=7)



perception of the guards = 1 and 2

You are able to sneak up on then halfway to the door downstairs, so you roll surprise, Pending your surprise roll the guards are yours to narrate :)

They defend but not full defense, not yet.

Guard surprise = 13 and 16

Guard dodge if not suprised = 4 and 7

Soak when needed = 2 for both

using the old rolls, as they did not get a chances to react to the surprise and are in a state of shock they did not do a full defense, so i use the rolls i made then.

Both are surprised, they take the full damage, Guard1 is left at 9S and guard2 is left at 8S both are prone,

On the second attack they defend G1 saves himself
Guard dodge if not suprised = 4 and 7
-2 for prone - 3 for damage = still 3 hits for dodge, so he is touched, but the attack misses.

but G2 takes 11S damage, and soaks only 4, so he is out of play.
Soaking 4 - still out for a while :) 10S 5P

Hope i did not make any mistakes,

i assume Rafa has not the shock gloves on, as Xzylvador gave me the unarmed attack damage not the shock glove one.

Also, just to speed things up a bit,

Sent

Could you make roll your Edge, or the one of your watcher, you need one hit.

Starting putting the finishing touches on the IC post.

not sure if I got you correctly:
if you asked for my Edge + Edge roll it's here -> 6d6.hits(5)=4
if you asked for my watcher edge it's here -> 2d6.hits(5)=0

I'm not really certain they can defend...
"During the first Initiative Pass, however, characters are considered surprised by any other characters who scored more hits than they did on the surprise Initiative Test. A character who is surprised may not directly act toward or react to characters who have surprised him. <snip> Only counts in the first Initiative Pass <snip>"
Since both of Rafa's attacks are done in the same pass (made possible thanks to the follow-up attack maneuver)...

Your call.
Sure hope he's down. If not, I think it's his move, Rafa sacced his action to make the second attack.

Reread the finishing move maneuver,
it's the same action phase, so they do not defend :S , and they both are down.
Congrats, Rafa!!!

i find it a bit odd to use finishing move on 2 opponents at the same time, the wording is in singular, but i have never been a big grammar nazi, so this one stays as it is done now. :D

The way I figured is that the half dicepool attacks are the same attack action...
And even if they're not, maybe Rafa could have triggered Finishing Move once for each attack, sacrificing his two next actions. Result would be the same.
But hey, no prob if you'd ruled differently. I'm flexible that way!

Kinda glad those guys are down though... 6 Rea + 7 Skill? Wow, Rafa really underestimated these guys... I'm guessing that since they went down before they could react, Rafa has no clue as to how good these guys are?

Says the one who took 2 of them down.

I'm in another guards commlink (at least I think so, I'm still waiting for the results of my hacking :) ), so I can follow from there as well.

PS: I'm home with the flu, so my response rate might not be what it normally is.  :(
