[pbp]Shadowrun - Bump in the Night

Steelhawk

Geth, roll 20d6t5 for Breach's Body Test vs Arrow to the knee (Body6 + Armor 13 + Toughness 1)

Geth, roll 8d6t5 for Defense vs. Dwarf's being jerks

Breach's Body Test vs Arrow to the knee (Body6 + Armor 13 + Toughness 1):

20d6t5 6 [20d6t5=3, 4, 4, 1, 5, 6, 2, 4, 5, 1, 5, 6, 3, 4, 3, 2, 5, 1, 2, 3]

Defense vs. Dwarf's being jerks:

8d6t5 5 [8d6t5=6, 5, 6, 6, 3, 5, 4, 2]

Brody

Solid defense roll

Farangu

The arrow bounces off your armor, but the physical force of it shakes you a bit. 2 stun damage.

Breach is a professional. Despite taking an arrow to the torso, he still has the mental acuity to shelter himself from the incoming pistol round, and dodges it neatly.

Farangu

@NotoriusBEN @Maclay @Steelhawk it's your turn for actions. @Brody the only person to harm you is down, so the spirit is hovering around you until it gets further orders.

Its a simple action to give a spirit commands, and I don't have any more actions for this combat turn, so it sounds like he is just going to chill until we roll initiative again.

Steelhawk

Can I get a recap please on who's around and has cover and the like? The Elf is down and the Dwarf and one of the Trolls ran back upstairs? Who else is around?

The elf and the Orc are down, the Troll archer and dwarf mage have left the room, the decker appears to be pulling out fast.

Steelhawk

Breach springs from his concealed position and chases down the fleeing gangers. As he moves he shouts out, "Frost! Can you block their escape with your drones? Dumah? Lock down the doors...don't let these fraggers escape!"

Once Breach hits the stairs, he'll fire away again with his shotgun...hopefully catching that Dwarf in the back!

Geth, roll 10d6t5 For Shotgun's & Dwarves...

That'll work

Shotgun's & Dwarves:

10d6t5 7 [10d6t5=5, 6, 5, 6, 1, 6, 4, 5, 6, 3]

JohnnyCache

if they break, do we let them run? My read on the situation is they're another for-hire team and we probably don't need to hunt them down in the street. But if we're worried about them going to the authorities or something, we have a second wave of drones on deck...

Farangu

@Steelhawk - Accuracy for your gun caps your hits at 5. You got 1 net hit.

Madly dashing after the fleeing gangers, Breach angrily takes a shot at the lagging dwarf. His shot strikes some leg armor and bounces, but that's sure to leave a massive bruise.

At this point in time the Troll is at the top of the stairs, and the dwarf is right behind them. Breach is at the bottom of the staircase, and has used all of his movement for the turn. Bauta and Frost are at the back of the basement. Tantrum is near the foot of the staircase, and has about half her movement for the turn left.

Maclay

Wouldn't mind a chance to pick their brains about their employer...

Tantrum Takes Aim (Accuracy modifier) at the troll with her Shocker and lights him up.

Geth, roll 11d6t5 for Thunderbolts and Lightning

Thunderbolts and Lightning:

11d6t5 1 [11d6t5=1, 5, 2, 1, 4, 3, 1, 2, 2, 3, 3]

Brody

Ouch!

Steelhawk

OK, so that's 14P damage vs his armor -1....how hurt is the dwarf then?

I'm not bloodthirsty enough to want to kill all the gangers out of spite...but I don't want them to get away without some sort of punishment. Also...I want to make sure they're not lying in wait for us somewhere else and/or turning us into the cops. And I want to make sure they're not working for Cabra. Or did we establish that already? I don't remember.

Brody

Sounds like your 14 DV was lower than his AP -1, so he took some stun damage. This also means he was rolling 14+ dice to soak your 14 damage.

They are definitely working for Cabra.

Maclay

Tantrum uses her free action to compare her shocker to an over-flowing bucket of diarrhetic horseshit.

Right.

So fuck that Dwarf for not missing a leg....and fuck all these guys for working for a backstabber. Now I'm OK with killing them all out of spite.

Farangu

Tantrum's taser dart goes wide. Embarrassingly wide. Breach gives a side-long glance at the troll.

Farangu

Also I made a mental mistake earlier - Breach's shot penetrated the armor and did physical damage, a small flesh wound.

Maclay

Phys 12/12 (inc. Tolerance)
Stun 10/10
Shocker Ammo 3/4
Edge 1/1

Brody

Can @NotoriusBEN order his drones around without distracting himself while playing w/ explosives?

11/11 Physical, 4/11 Stun, 35/38 rounds

Farangu

If he trusts the dogbrains to do their thing, sure. But he can't jack in without giving up time for defusal

Farangu

Oh! I almost forgot!

Whomever has the lowest Edge, go ahead and roll that! If it's a tie, decide amongst yourselves!

Egos

Edge stat or Edge points left?
If former, think @Brody and @Macclay are tied
If latter, think @JohnnyCache

I assume the former

Farangu

Yea, total edge points.

Brody

@Maclay do you want to roll a dice, or do you want me to roll a dice?

Maclay

I guess I'll roll it just to save on the back and forth. Feel free to do it if I get it wrong.
Geth roll 1d6t5 for Edge

Edge:

1d6t5 1 [1d6t5=6]

Brody

The back and forth would have been half the fun. At least you rolled well.

Farangu

Edit: Misread. Saw the 1 and thought that was his roll, and not the hit counter. The color choice on mobile can make it difficult to read.

Nevermind, everything is fine. Carry on!

Brody

Wait, he rolled a 6, on 1 die?

Egos

yep I think we can safely say Geth favors Maclay the most and me the least.

Also yeah the dice rolls are all freaking white+grey text on mobile

Maclay

Perhaps you missed my attempt to taze a troll.

Brody

So, what next?

Farangu

@NotoriusBEN has his action to take, the the troll, and then it's top of the next pass.

NotoriusBEN

sorry, im a bit out of it today. started my next two week jaunt with trucking.

geth, roll 8d6t5 for next defusal attempt

next defusal attempt:

8d6t5 3 [8d6t5=5, 3, 6, 3, 5, 2, 4, 3]

Farangu

No worries. You're half-way to defusing the bomb.

The troll doesn't even consider shooting at you all. He just runs.

Third pass:
Dumah - 10
Bauta - 8

@JohnnyCache @Egos

Farangu

Also @NotoriusBEN what kind of radius are your drones visually patrolling?

NotoriusBEN

the flyspy is set about a block around the place, my rotodrones are set to unload on anyone but us that tries to open my van.

Egos

can I even do a dash and make it to the troll to get a shot off or?

or the dwarf if he/she is still standing

Farangu

The troll has left what is visible from the bottom of the staircase, which is as far as you can move from where you are. You can see the dwarf if you move, but you'll need to aim before a shot if you don't want some hella recoil penalties.

JohnnyCache

if you haul doubles for fed ex, I hate you.

I will drop vm (and agent with it) for blackout. That will add an separate pool of stun equal to my matrix damage dv, resisted by willpower+firewall...then I will data spike again!

Geth, roll 18d6t5 to fry this hapless techno-weenie!

Edit: oh, come ON.
M9/9
S9/9
P9/9
E0/3



"Last chance, kid. No more warning shots!" Dumah says, trying to pretend she meant to hit lightly as a professional courtesy.
"Tell your team to pack it in, before bodies go in bags."

to fry this hapless techno-weenie!:

18d6t5 1 [18d6t5=3, 3, 6, 3, 2, 4, 2, 2, 3, 2, 1, 3, 2, 3, 3, 4, 4, 3]
