I honestly think this is some of my best work to date

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/ic.gif) is up for you people

Nova, warm those dice up and hope that "the Lady" is listening

I'll allow you the time to see what's going on and get ONE pre-emptive spell / ability going.

Etiquette first (-2) for the spirit form (-1) for the overall distraction

this will see if they go from Hostile, down to .. somewhere better we hope. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Then, follow it up with whatever Social roll you think best to convince them to do as you ask.

The rest of you, that scanner HUD on the windscreen is flashing up THREE BOGIES ! inbound ETA 3 minutes !

CRISPY make me some kind of COMPUTER ROLL please

Etiquette and Con -> 2 hits and 4 (or 2) hits

The "(or 2)", if the "(-2) for the spirit form (-1) for the overall distraction" also applies here.

Distraction works in your favour on CON,

I get 2 hits on etiquette so stay at hostile.

But with that modifier, i still don't beat your CON,

For some reason, they are willing to go along with .. Despite all the weirdness... Grats

okay, Thanee, read the below before making

three drive tests from Nova with the following mods :

Injuries
headlights off )-2 unless you counter it with gear / magic etc)
handling -1

good news, Murphy, if you have some way to counter the darkness, You too can make three drive (co-pilot rolls) with similar mods
and Nova can have any HITS as supplementary dice

if anyone has any bright ideas on how else to assist in the driving over rough terrain, speak now or forever be stuck in a ditch !

Also, any ideas on hiding from the systems of three inbound security drones would be nice too, still waiting on Crispy to roll computers to see if he got anything useful from his mad button pressing moment (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Sorry, here goes:
Computer: [5,4,6,3,2,4,6,6,1] = (4) hits, didn't take into account any penalties for gas-stun damage or whatnot...

I will roll as soon as I get home. I assume low light vision would counter the darkness? Also could I possibly sneak my Outdoorsman positive quality in there for a bonus to notice impassable terrain?

Driving Test 1: Drive: Pilot(2) + Attribute(6) - Handling(1) - Stun(2) = 5DP (5d6.hits(5)=0)

Driving Test 2: Drive: Pilot(2) + Attribute(6) - Handling(1) - Stun(2) = 5DP (5d6.hits(5)=1)

Driving Test 3: Drive: Pilot(2) + Attribute(6) - Handling(1) - Stun(2) = 5DP (5d6.hits(5)=3)

What would be the mod here, then?

I got 6S from the "insecticides" and 3S from the crash.

So, -1 or -3?

I'm going to say the highest modifier as teh drugs -2

the book clashes with my random thoughts on the chemical I used.

for this encounter, I'm applying the modifier that the damage would impose BUT not the actual damage,
if that makes sense?

especially as you will recover quite quickly from the toxins, *(quicker than normal "S" damage) but not quite quick enough to be able to drive ...

IF the situation crops up again OR you guys use chemical agents, then I will book rule it, straight forward.

You get a breakdown on make and model from the radar signatures.

they only seem to be bearing on the last know position and the sounds of gun-shots,

if you can get to cover quick enough you "MAY" be able to evade detection,

With a sudden surge of inspiration, he called Baller out of his tactical pouch and had the little drone roll out until it was sitting pressed up against the inside front windshield, secured in place with the gecko tips on the dashboard. I'm trying to patch Baller's feeds into the nav-system on this POS, he's got UWB radar, thermo and lowlight going now. Somehow that's gotta help, right Artemis?"


THAT, Sir, is Divine !

forget vision penatlies to drive,

and add +1 to handling (Instead of -1) as the little magic 8-ball can put up an AR overlay of the ground out to half it's normal range,

Are these things armed with flamethrowers? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smokin.gif)

But really, I'm trying to think of one thing that is realistically something Crispy could find out from the radar / sensor ping.

Ok, got it. Any kind of radio communication going on between them? Like, are they autonomous, or is a rigger driving them?

Good Call, at present, they are autonomous, they are flying perfect formation and in exact straight lines without any meta-human variance or "Maverick" behaviour

Increase Reaction F6 -> 2 hits; no Drain

Well, we can do that better... so one more try...

Increase Reaction F6 -> 4 hits; no Drain

Told ya!


Now... DRIIIIIVE!

#1 Pilot Ground Craft +/-0 (vision) -2 (wounds) +1 (handling) +0 (Teamwork) -> 4 hits (nice start (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) )
#2 Pilot Ground Craft +/-0 (vision) -2 (wounds) +1 (handling) +1 (Teamwork) -> 2 hits
#3 Pilot Ground Craft +/-0 (vision) -2 (wounds) +1 (handling) +1 (Teamwork; max. Skill Rating) -> 3 hits

Yeah, I found that out too - without giving drones some really good sensors and some good autosofts, they aren't very capable. One of the first things on Crispy's todo-list is to upgrade his drones with better sensors and autosofts...
