edit: Sorry to come across like a dick... I really don't mean to. I'm just kind of sad seeing these games dying all the time.

I am the one who should be apologising not youand every one else who is daily on the fourum and wating for things to resolve..

I'm Sorry that it is so slow.

So that's a done deal now as long as they are not in IC we count them out. update tonight, or tommorow morning depending how long the session tonight will be.

[Xzylvador]

No man, you really don't need to apologise.
You're willing to spend time and effort to entertain a bunch of random internet-people and I really am grateful for it, even if I don't show it, whining about the pace.

[Kouryuu]

Ougoun I need your services. Above, at the end of the corridor are four guards. One closer, two patrolling it and one at the farther end. When the two patrolling guards turn adn start moving toward the closer guard poses the one that is standing there, signal when you do and drop the two guards simultaneusly using non-lethal attacks.

The plan goes as follows:
Spirit (Force 4, 5 services, concealment additional power) possess the guard, using his enhanced stats and splitting dicepools. as soon as the spirit let me know he possessed the guard I'll signal Rafa.
The guard by the doors should observe the situation, but before he'll be able to react he'll be downed by Rafa (he should be distracted makign it even easier for him to be sneaked upon).

the above will cost me two services (one to possess the guard and one to disable them), the guard will get stat boost because of possession.
as previously on unsuccessful attempt I'd like him to retry

we'll see afterwards, it will take at least a minute probably before the guards be in position, giving time to Panther for making additional hacking is possible.

If the possession fails or the spirit is banished, the critter may not attempt to possess that vessel again until the sun next rises
or sets.

if you fail on the first guard, witch i doubt you need only 2 hits, you can attempt to posses the other.

Possession roll please(2)

Everyone roll initiative as the possession will defiantly trigger a response and we will go into CT's when it starts.

[Sentinemodo]

possession attempt - Force (4) + Force(4) -> 8d6.hits(5)=3
inittiative -> 5 + 5d6.hits(5)=2 -> 7 1IP

[Xzylvador]

Initiative (10d6.hits(5)=4)
Rafa's at 14 IP.
Since we're all aware of this going down and the guards don't, do we get the +6 bonus for surprise?

Rafa'll try to sneak down the stairs so he can jump the guards at the same time as the spirit... Where would the roof access stair be on the map? Same place as the stairs between ground and first floor?

yes the same place, but it's like fire stairs. 
what i mean is - it's a old rusted iron stairs vertically trough the roof with a small opening on top.
the stairs are made in a way that makes it very hard to come down without making a sound or attracting attention. -4 on stealth.

the spirit does not get the surprise bonus at least not a full one as the attention is on the man he possessed, but Rafa does get a +6 if you jump down  the stairs, but you have to make a Body(1) roll to not fall over or take damage.
they would expect the two smokers coming down so surprise would apply.

[Xzylvador]

Sounds good.
Just a body roll, no Athletics (incl. bonusses from augs such as synthacardium, balance augmenter) or something?  Anyhow, even with just Body (5) I can buy the single hit if you let me.

[farothel]

Anything for me on putting the cameras to blank before they start making noise?

[Kouryuu]

it will be done as soon as the combat breaks lose upstairs.

you roll ini

and then on Sent's mark the Spirit guard will try to Double KO the two guards.
Sent remember that the Spirit has no access to the Skills of the possessed guard.

[Sentinemodo]

yeah, I know, but this is the guardian spirit - it has it's own unarmed combat

[Kouryuu]

yeah, I know, but this is the guardian spirit - it has it's own unarmed combat

We can start combat, Panthers INI pending, but 1st floor will nor battle for a while so Faro can get in at a later moment if needed.
 what do you guys say?

[Xzylvador]

Ready.

[farothel]

I'll do my camera thing right before combat starts, and I'm not doing anything else but keeping out of the way until it does. 

So ready to go.

[Kouryuu]

So the battle starts,

[Kouryuu]

Guards ini

9d6.hits(5) → [2,6,1,2,4,6,4,6,4] = (3) - 12
9d6.hits(5) → [1,2,6,5,5,1,5,5,5] = (6) - 15
9d6.hits(5) → [2,5,5,3,3,3,2,6,6] = (4) - 13
9d6.hits(5) → [5,4,5,1,5,6,5,2,4] = (5) - 14
9d6.hits(5) → [3,6,5,3,1,6,3,4,3] = (3) - 12

INI - 12

INI Dogs - 9 and 7

as i said Rafa can get a surprise, but the spirit taking over can not, as it is noticeable, at least until you prove me wrong.
tomorrow the battle starts.
