It would have been hard to hit him before with artemis's window open full but now it is closed half way making it very difficult to get your hand and arm at the good angle. I would say you could try but with a -8 penalty |

Ok, so given the high dice pool modifier, I'm going to take 2 simple actions to Take Aim.
Btw, totally left out the +2 dice for the smartlink on my first two shots. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/frown.gif) Oh well - I'll remember it next time (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Here is my initiative for next turn. 9d6.hits(5)=3 So for next turn my initiative is 12. (SOOO much better than last time (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) ) |

Can't wait to see what you do (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Mind you, if the car won't reboot for 12 seconds, that is an eternity in combat. I'm hoping that between the Neurostun in his car, plus my much better initiative, I can finish off Frankie before he even gets to go. Then we just have to get out of here.... |

Plus you are hacking that system now so unless you wanted to switch to brute force attack... Which would most likely set off the alarm you can. Only risk is will bad things happen with that info in the next 3 hours (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

They just have to pour half a cup of sugar in the can and buy illegal caffeine supplements to make up for the cheap ass changes they made to the drink. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

Ok sorry for the slow down. Lobo takes a double aim getting a +2 on the next attack. Artemis is busy hacking away. Egg is sitting patiently in the passenger seat enjoying the loving Artemis is giving her. The Kid is in the matrix saving everyone's ass.
New Initiative for everyone. Frankie: Initiative (7d6.hits(5)=2) Total = 9 |

Ok - assuming I go first - let me know if that is wrong, I will fire a narrow burst at Frankie, getting 2 hits.
9d6.hits(5)=2 For those that are counting, that is 14 dice (skill+stat+specialization) +2 for smartlink, +2 for aiming twice, -8 for cover, -1 for recoil (normally -2, but the gun itself has an RC of 1) So damage would be 5 base, +2 for narrow burst, +2 for ammo, +2 for hits or 11DV with an AP of -3 (including ammo bonus) |

Matt'll answer "No" to the agent's inquiry, then will go through the door with the computer & monitor on it.
