How hurt are you? ...or rather, how hurt do you appear to be? Silus seems fairly overdramatic and his cry for a medic warrants a second look. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/nyahnyah.gif) Oh, ooooow .... it Chafes !! I was invoking for TW not for Silas .. I'm on 3 Stun boxes |

Ha! TW should be in good hands. With my 18 dice in combat wounds, Needle's 16, and then healing magic? We're looking at like 13 boxes back today. TW shall live! It won't even cost an arm or a leg. Just an appendix or kidney.

Gardner finds one speedloader with 6 APDS bullets in it. The maitre d' also has a commlink, earbuds, and a concealable hoster (which would take you some time to get off because you'd need to take off the suit coat before you could start taking the holster off). I'll grab the ammo and the commlink (plus TW's SnS) and put the ammo in my pocket. The Comm I'm holding on to (so I can ditch it if need be), and I'll see if our downed corp stooge is still in the loop, listening in on his commlink. That was the second pass, right? Now we just need to finish up the third? For my action of the third pass, I'm probably going to hate myself later, but I'll call up my Air spirit and command him to catch anything falling off the building and land it safely next to the van on the street. I didn't really want to use up a service to save that sniper, but damn it, that's what my character would do... But hey, with this operation going so wonky, I'm going to try and get as much out of it as possible. And if that means stealing these guys' guns and ammo, so be it. I'm assuming since the sniper fell off, his gun did too. This service will also help should anything happen while we are heading down. EDIT: Oh, and the Plant Spirit gets another action this pass too. It is going to Materialize this pass, give the guard and the Air Spirit something more substantial to distract them from Silas (and others) making their escape. |

ok, first thing in the new CT WOOOHOOO I'm not disoriented any more .. bloody SnS crapsticks .. mumble mutter moan ! then I'm sacrificing my first IP to full defense and trying to move around the air spirit and AFTER Mr. White & Co. if they have gone ? FULL Defence REACTION 7 + GYM 3 + SYNTH 3 + MOVE 2 minus STUN 1 - MELEE 3 (11d6.hits(5)=2) wow, barely avoid the first bullet FULL Defence REACTION 7 + GYM 3 + SYNTH 3 + MOVE 2 minus STUN 1 - MELEE 3 - defended once 1 (10d6.hits(5)=2) OH EM GEE ! too damn close for comfort. if on my first IP I can move, your nasty spirit thing gets to take a swing ... "Bring it wind bag !" I was actually going to let you go without him attacking you until you said "Bring it wind bag." He gets 5 hits on his free attack against you. |

It is going to Materialize this pass, give the guard and the Air Spirit something more substantial to distract them from Silas (and others) making their escape. You can't search the body and pick up all 3 items in one pass. It was at least a simple action to Search the body. And it's a simple action to pick up an item. So you can only pick up one item in IP2. And you could pick up the other two items in IP3 if you want to. |

Forget the contact portion of that question. Your hacker doubles as a medic with like 16 dice in most medical skills. Not to mention the bus has a large drone rack with 3 Valkyries on it. So yeah, I've got you covered on being patched up. Now, are we in the next CT or just IP3 of the current CT? If it's the next CT...I get to land! woot! I believe you jumped IP3 of CT2. So you will get to land IP3 CT4 which is where we are at now. You can go ahead and make your landing roll. |

Eclipse can make his climbing roll if he's going to start heading down. Remember the -2 penalty for bringing TundraWolf down with you.

Just an appendix or kidney. Keep in mind that you can only use First Aid on a set of wounds once. It's not like both you and Needle can use First Aid on the same person. |

Wait. When I asked earlier, you stated this was the last CT before I landed. Now it's another whole CT on top of that? Right now we are at CT4 IP3. There is no more waiting. You can roll to land right now. Once, Eclipse makes his roll to start rappelling down, it will be your time to land on the ground. Then Gardner will be either picking up the other two items he wanted or calling up his air spirit depending on which he chooses to do. Then we will be starting up Combat Turn 5 |

What do I roll for the landing? Same thing I rolled for the jump? Should I fail, what should I roll for the damage resistance? I'm guessing BOD + Impact armor, resisting 4S? |

No problem on misreading. I wasn't clear enough. Yeah, make the same roll as before and if you fail you resist 4S damage with BOD+Impact. |

You were moving away from the air elemental. Did you head out the door and onto the balcony? If so, you could make it most of the way to the ropes and you can strap yourself in and start heading down the next time you have actions. |

Just to clear up because the last page or so has been a jumble of actions.
We are currently resolving the actions for IP3 of Combat Turn 4. Thus far: Gardner's plant spirit materialized Silas made a break for the balcony and had to use up his actions for the first pass of next combat turn to avoid the air elemental's attempt at stoppnig him. I am currently waiting on Eclipse to roll rappeling if he is starting down the rope. Or he needs to tell me what else he is going to do instead if he doesn't want to start going down. I am also waiting on Needle's roll to land from her crazy flight in the wingsuit. Gardner has mentioned trying to grab 3 items from the maitre d', but only had enough actions in IP2 to grab one of them. He can either grab the other two this pass or can call up his bound air elemental as he also mentioned wanting to do. Mr. White who had been holding his actions has pushed Acson (who is still under the spirit's confusion power) out onto the balcony. He can either strap himself into a rappelling harness this turn or strap Acson into one. I need to know which he's doing. Following his turn, the two new drones will be dropping 10m closer (IP2 of next combat turn they will have arrived and start shooting people still on the balcony) |

Strapping Acson in first, then himself.

No problem on misreading. I wasn't clear enough. Yeah, make the same roll as before and if you fail you resist 4S damage with BOD+Impact. Ok, here goes nothing! 6d6.hits(5) = 4 Holy shit! I think I might spend Needle's eventual Karma rewards on B&E skills and/or extreme sports! Landed perfectly, somewhere near the bus (GM's call) without killing myself! Woot! IC Post coming as soon as the GM lets me know where I landed. So Needle, who has zero skill in parachuting and really doesn't do the whole extreme sports thing, just launched herself off a 30 story building, flew through the night sky, and managed a perfect 10 point landing on the city streets. Not a single 1 rolled; not a single point of Edge spent. Holy crap is she one lucky bitch! |

You'll defintely be able to get to it in this upcoming combat turn, but it may take you a pass or two to reach it. |

Can he flip Acson's comlink on? He's still got it in his pocket. I'm betting those drones start shooting before White can get himself strapped in, and that sounds like it'll end badly for him..... unless the drones don't shoot at him.

You'll defintely be able to get to it in this upcoming combat turn, but it may take you a pass or two to reach it. She's only got 2 Edge when at full (yeah, I should spend some Karma there too). 2d.6hits(5) = 1 Again, no 1s rolled. So I'll just post she landed near the bus, and you let me know when she gets to it. I should mention that in 1 CT my commlink will have rebooted fully. Or, on IP 1 of the next CT. |

With one hit on the Luck roll I'll say it only takes you the first IP of CT 5 to run to the bus. I'm gonna roll System + Response to see how long it's going to take my commlink to come back online. System + Response 1: 9d6.hits(5) = 5 System + Response 2: 9d6.hits(5) = 3 System + Response 3: 9d6.hits(5) = 4 3 full CTs, or 9 seconds, where my commlink (and by extension, my digital persona) is offline. That should be pass 3 in this CT for me. Let me know when it's my action in the next CT. You rolled that it would take 3 combat turns and it started booting up on IP2 of CT2. So your commlink won't be back on until IP2 of the new combat turn. |

I'm betting those drones start shooting before White can get himself strapped in, and that sounds like it'll end badly for him..... unless the drones don't shoot at him. As Needle has been doing with her own commlink, it takes multiple combat turns for a commlink to come back online. It's not an instant thing. Technically, you only switched yours to Hidden mode. You could switch it back to Active mode as a simple action to start broadcasting the authorized ticket you had though. |

Sorry, you're right about the gear taking longer... on the first action I grab the commlink so I can start listening in on thsir chatter. I'll call the spirit on the third pass and unless something keeps me, I'll get the ammo on the first pass of the next turn.
The new spirit will materialize at the end of the turn and acts on initiative 11 (though I doubt it will matter) For the new combat turn: My plant spirit will use noxious breath if it can catch both enemies with it (now that silas is out. The air spirit will catch the falling sniper, and his gun. Gardner grabs speedloader and tw's SnS clip The Earth spirit uses guard on Silas, Acson, and White. |
