@ SK:

I put up a post of Demon picking up gear if anyone needs it. I'll put up a shopping list tomorrow (work was a real bitch today). Just let me know if there is a write-up on the price. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

kk rolling for my two auto softs:

automatics r3:

1d6 → [6] = (6)
woo its a shiny knockoff!

and infiltration r3:

1d6 → [4] = (4)


good to know Im not going to be buggy

Sorry about the short post, It's late and I need to get up early so I didn't have time to write more.

About the date, I'm assuming since I haven't seen anything else mentioned that we're on April 16 as well?

@ Ghost:

Lol

@I'm on a boat: we do have mapsofts don't we? I'll keep heading towards the lifeboats until something untoward happens...

@DF: if there are no more questions then Doza's plan of stash the kid and go and look for yourselves is probably the best course...

@Hunters: Shrike will do a data search (+browse?!?) extended roll with mixed results:

5d6.hits(5) → [4,3,4,4,2] = (0)
5d6.hits(5) → [2,6,2,4,6] = (2)
5d6.hits(5) → [1,1,5,5,6] = (3)
5d6.hits(5) → [5,1,6,5,2] = (3)
5d6.hits(5) → [4,5,1,6,3] = (2)

She's after latest google earth type images and any more street gosip about the area that's on the public/semi public data bases...

Sorry for the absence. had an unexpected loss of connectivity for a few days.

@IOAB

So long as you take a moment to strap in, you should be aok, probably the equivalent of a very minor collision while safety strapped...While technically they're rated for "unstrapped" drops, that tends to inherently assume the sinking ship has slowed down a bit.

To get to the lifeboats you will have to go down to the 2nd floor or the deck and then cover about 25m of gantry/deck after going out the door. This will take about 25 seconds at the run, 50 seconds walking, and 90+ seconds creeping forward carefully.

@Hunters Pursuit
I will get to posting as soon as I can, right now my professors decided to pile on a friggin huge amount of homework on me and it is due next week. I have been working on it all week and I have barely scratched the surface...gonna be a looooong weekend.

@ Aria: Oops, I may have misread your last comment at directing anger towards Demon. x_x

@IOABoat

We're currently steaming toward K-E coverage at an uncomfortable pace. I vote we charge.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I should specify: those times are to get to the door at deck level OR the second floor door. just select your pace and destination...

Think I must have missed a post somewhere...times? Anyone point me in the right direction and Silk will get on it!

@General
Sorry for the posting lapse, work was harder than expected, but fortunately that surge of work is over now.
My usual disclaimer: If I haven't answered a question ask it again as I have missed it.

@OnTheBoat
I vote we use the movement power to get us to the lifeboats faster!

@SuicideKings
Nice In game fracas. Caused mostly by me not posting...but still nice to read.

OK I am moving you towards the island. Please note the time has changed

@I'm on a boat: is Silk able to see/detect the people in the stairwell below? I'm assuming the flyspy is at least a flight ahead...are we in a dogleg stair so we could drop a grenade over the rail or is it an enclosed space? I'm honestly not sure which is more likely on a super freighter...

@DF: do you want me to move you on or do you want to IC stashing the kid at Jotamon's house? I think that was the original plan anyway... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ork.gif)

@SKs: I'm thinking of summoning a REALLY big spirit...are there still rules about how long they stick around when summoned? I have vague recolections of dawn and dusk so there wouldn't be any point summoning it now if it will bugger off before being useful...?!?

Its a dogleg, and as you cross the third deck the fly spy will pick up a pair of unarmed crewmen arguing. The words are indisticnt, but captain and hijacked are mentioned.

Sunrise and sunset limits still apply for unbound spirits. If we are going in in the evening, then will need to wait till sunset. When appropriate, Copperhead will also summon Lightning Snake, an air spirit (F3) with energy aura (lightning) as its optional power.

Summoning 3 + Magic 3 = 6d6.hits(5)=2
Spirit resists F3 = 3d6.hits(5)=1 = 1 service
Resist 2S drain: Cha 3 + Will 5 = 8d6.hits(5)=5 - no drain, pity didn't roll this for summoning!

im going to use that bit of roleplay to familiarize Jacob with widgets more in depth, treat him as mildly distracted until we dock up.

@OnTheBoat
Hurrah for scouting!

OK given bad guys coming on the deck level, let's go out the other way.

There are two guys talking, I am going to charge them, and as they are presumably close together attack both. I don't think I have done this before with melee: It always struck me as a bad idea to split your die pool. But if they are surprised...well that should be fun.

Surprise roll: I added 6 die as I know they are there, but knock them off if you want: 6 successes (just use the first roll)
Attacks: 2 successes each (I made two mistakes: 2 points of agility too high, and forgot +2 for charging...so the mistakes kind of cancel out).
Base damage: 7 stun electrical, with the whole nasty taser effect.

I thought the arguing guys were down below us in the stairwell? Not a problem if Seth has invented two more opponenets for us (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Silk will have words about the whole "I have point" thing however (IMG:style_emoticons/default/nyahnyah.gif) ... bloomin mages rushing off into combat, what happened to respecting the "geek the mage first" ?!? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

@ Seth:

Here's Demon's shopping list. Let me know if there are any mark-ups above regular prices. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Total cost: 8,155 nuyen

@Aria
Clearly, it's Nerd Rage. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

@ Seth

Err, are you charging down the stairwell to beat up the arguers or heading out the door on the second floor to the gantry leading to the lifeboat?

Also, please roll perception at (full darkness , -2 situational) for option number 2.

So where are we in SK? Can we IC getting into the docking bay?

@AppliedCheese
Sorry I edited the IC, forgot to edit the OOC. I mis read the post, and Aria correct me.
To be clear: I am avoiding the arguing crewmembers

@SuicideKings
If everyone is happy I will move time forwards to when Teague leaves his compound. Does anyone know the time for sunrise.

@JxJXA
Shopping list OK. (Cigarettes and Wine are covered by lifestyle)

question on timing. i believe we were going over and then waiting for the later time to go for it ? also Id like to have enough time pass for me to whirl up a few widgets beforehand. Wasnt sure when we were actually assaulting so didnt rp it in my last post. Ie I thought op was supposed to be at 04:00 or something. If so was going to work on the widgets at tthe kimpton.
