16 hours.

What exactly are you looking for?

Sigh, 16 hours. I was trying to get a dossier on Morningstar. Of particular import is whether or not he is magically active.

Galen

He isn't a real public official, but the matrix does provide some info. When you reach the time limit, you will have your dossier, but it will probably be done well before that.

Think we'll get a magemask and knock him out with narcojet or something anyway.

Sounds like a great "No sir, they made me wear that" nodding at the mask "I didn't hear or see them" kind of thing.

Waiting on:

Ludi - IC: response to Kliko's phone call. Response to legwork (from IM).

Corsair - OoC: Drones? Rolls? Flux Ratings?

Bubba - IC/OoC: Are you still around?

Kliko - IC: Once you get everyone's shopping list, text it to Mrs. Johnson.

First do some IC planning, gather everybodies thoughts/input.

Expect only low-tech kit (except apart from the mage mask). I already prepped a temporary list, but lets see what our recon brings forth first.

@Basterd - See spoilers for details on drone related attributes:



Given that I'll be at this for a couple days, I'll post 1 roll per day, for 3 days. It might not take that long, but I'll just pre-roll for the sake of it.

1. Create Mapsofts of the building's exterior and surrounding buildings and streets



2. Check for Security Measures on the building, fences, wired windows, cameras, etc



3. Perform headcount of all people entering and leaving, if possible, take pictures of everyone's faces.



Editted to re-roll 6s.

Bubba is still around, There just hasnt been much for him to add. He is soaking in a tub in the motel room defrosting...

He would like some gel rounds for his cyber shotguns and more donuts. He is waiting for someone to give him some direction.

No problem, there's some shopping to be done for sure rather sooner than later (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

I think I'm ready to move the IC thread on to the end of my fruitless search test.

Galen

That was a 16 hour extended test?

@Bastard: Can you give galenb some of his results upto say 02:00.

Kliko goes to bed around 0:30. We'll start planning next morning after breakfast with Corsairs, Felix' and Jamie's results.

I'm planning on doing some radio-scanner surveillance in case they have security guards or something at the temple (find frequencies, monitor security procedures, record responses etc.) once we can get to the UCAS-sector after we get those passes/ID's/visa's. That might take some 24-36 hrs as well.

I will catch everyone up on Sunday for where you are so far. Another busy week at work.


EDIT
Working now. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rotate.gif)

Questions.

Corsair
Are you leaving your blimps floating around or are you bringing them back after each flight? What are your flight patterns if you are leaving them in automated flight?

I will add to my IC once I have these questions answered.

@Bastard So I have done 5 hours of my 16 hour search before I went to bed?

Galen

abouts

A box of donuts is worth a bullet.

This goes to confirm that Bubba is my favorite character in the entire world. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/grinbig.gif)

Remember coffin motel rooms aren't much more than a bed. Think of a lightly decorated jail cell (6x9). You may want to relocate to a regular cheap motel/hotel where there is more room. Rates range from $50-70 per night (+$10 Fridays and Saturdays). A moderate hotel would range from $70-120 (+$10-20 for Fri and Sat).

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/spin.gif) Bubba is just a young oversized pup that needs the right motivation. Mainly acceptance. And then he will perform!

Kliko was planning to take them to a breakfast diner take a booth there and enjoy the free soykaff re-fills. Can they rent some office meeting space for say a day or part thereof?

Coffin motels are cramped as hell. Like youth hostels, but with more private beds (coffins).

@Bastard: That first floor Extrusion at the big doors to the CotD temple storage area, is that an overhang, ramp or both?

It is a loading dock. A ramp going down so that tractor-trailers can be unloaded. Building a loading dock

But does it include an overhang like on the picture? Something say we could stand on when say, opening one of those windows on the second floor? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

-EDIT-
@Bastard:
I'll update the IC with same some where tomorrow evening CET

Are the gel rounds for Bubba's internal cyber shotguns part of the request? I see stun shells but those appear to be for a new shotgun? But if stun shells work too that's fine. We may want more rounds then.

Mrs. Johnson will provide the gel rounds for any weapons you ask for, or specify in the list, at no cost. So list your cyber shotguns and you are covered.




Negative. That is not an overhang. That is a dock in the picture. Like a big cement porch to unload the trucks.

Like these:
Unloading
Building probably looks somewhat like this too
digital
empty dock
Youre doing it wrong

Try and get one dose of Gamma-Scopolamine, it has the nice secondary effect of lowering willpower (and therefore the targets ability to resist mindprobe so that I can dig through his memories). We can simply inject him with it after the capture. Its a faster acting and more effective drug than narcoject anyways, although more expensive.

Edited 1657

@Kliko And here I thought you might remember floating through the air twice earlier today... I can probably get two people invisible and floating outside the window. Open the window, tranq Morningstar, grab him and lower him to the waiting vehicle... could be do able. If I'm sustaining that many spells I won't be doing anything else... +4 to all TNs. If we keep this up I'll need to get myself a sustaining focus for Levitate.

Edited again at 1719

If we're going in through the building, some "splat glue" (M&M pg 114) might be just the trick to lock security and others behind doors and out of our way, either that or flood the place with Neurostun X Grenades and wear respirators. Nausea Gas is another great one for non-lethal attacks. Heck, dumping slip spray on the staircase behind us and going out the window can work too.

What can I say, I'm a fan of non-traditional tactics and the many fun chemical compounds.

I'm all for 'special' tactics

All the other drugs are expensive, but also have a higher availibility (Gamma-Scopoline 8/2 weeks, Laes 21/21 weeks!). Narcojet for example is 3/48 hrs a lot easier available and cheaper.
Also note the Neurostun is breathing and contact vector too. So respirators just won't cut it.

Both Bubba and Kliko brought Neurostun VI gas-grenades (1 each) and smoke grenades (to cover up the gas), but they are more for contigency-planning then to actively use them.

I specifically picked gear with low availability and leave the SMG's to Bastard/ms Johnson to pick. That gives an air of professionalism (skill beats tech any time) and flexibility to the J
I like the idea of that slip-spray dumping in the staircase though.

We brought an Ascent-kit with us. Just get one of us on the roof and we'll manage in our climbing harnesses and athletics/climbing skill.
