@JDragon - if you want in the fight I'll need the usual - initiative, actions, rolls for those actions, and lots of defense rolls.

@MrJoshua

Well, on one hand there are a lot of them (many more than you'd thought), both mounted and dismounted, all around you.

But on the other hand, they don't know where you are, many of them are drunk, and my examination of the rules found that you run faster than any of them even with an adult male human on your back.

Assuming you are trying to get away, let's start with a Sneaking roll (their opposed test will be using Teamwork, so roll well).

Of course if you have any contingency plans or bright ideas to enhance your odds let me know.

@Chalka - looks like you've given me everything asked for, thanks!

I do, however, remain in a spike in RL hecticousity. Looking to carve out just one peaceful hour to resolve everything for the first set of initiative passes. Hopefully tomorrow. Sorry for the delay.

Guess I best get reading the combat rules for 5th Ed. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

I'll get rolls up tomorrow at some point. Do you care how we do rolls?

Rocky's Actions & Rolls

Rocky's plan will be to head for the van that just arrived behind Daphne, he will be trying to close as quickly as possible with the attackers before they can bring their weapons to bear on Daphne or himself.

I'm guessing he is in his suit for work and has his Warhawk in its holster at the small of his back. Let me know if I'm wrong on either of these.

ROLLS
Initiative: 9+3d6
Rolls: 4; 2; 2
Total: 17

If needed Rocky will Sprint(Complex) as his first action to get to his targets.
Running Test (Str 8 + Running 2): 10 dice
Rolls: 2; 6; 1; 1; 3; 6; 3; 3; 4; 1
Hits: 2
So that should add 2 meters if needed.


If he does not need to Sprint to get there Rocky will use both actions to punch(Complex) the guys coming out of the vans. His first target will be the first one he can reach, if I get two attacks (having not needed to sprint) the second attack will go at the first guy if he's still a threat or he can't reach anyone else. If the first target is down then Rocky will move down the line to the next guy.

If possible I would like the attack to be a charge. I will be using Killing Hands to make the damage Lethal.

Let me know if I missed anything or if you need more rolls. This is my first stab at 5th ed Combat so hopefully I got it right.

@Chalka group -

Again, apologies this took so long. RL has just really hit me recently (curse it).

Here is the resolution on the first initiative pass of the combat turn.

Outside the room:

The two guys stay out of the doorway. They pull up their sleeves and each produces a long ammo clip from somewhere on their body and slams it right into their forearm. They are clearly preparing to assault the room (but this being a weapons-controlled club, are now having to take an action to load their concealed ammo clips into their cyberguns).

Vexboy and Rave have pretty much exactly the same result - each of you are now right behind your man. You see each other, but they don't appear to have seen you.

For your next action passes you are both going to go before these guys can act. I assume you are attacking them from behind as you indicated earlier, although you are free to change your minds.
Vexboy - what sort of attack are you using?
I'll need those rolls.
And probably defense rolls as well, in case you don't take the guy down....
Also, on your first visit I had them take your weapons at the door, but I forgot to do that this time.
Considering that all your weapons are quite conealable and that you now have a well-paid contact working here, I'm going to say you got your weapons in tonight. Your weapon can already be readied if you want.

Vegas - I've got your defense rolls, thanks.
Also got your attack rolls with blade and unarmed - preference (I'd go with blade if I were you!).

Inside the room:
It's a tense half second as you wait for the next phase of the attack. Everyone is a bit stunned by the wall blowing.
Bronwyn is muttering something from her hiding place in the corner.
DES commands his spirit and it completes its Materialization.
D-Pop is squatting behind the table, calm.
The expected grenade does get dropped into the new wall hole.
D-Pop dives over and tosses it back out.
Still no blast yet.
Once the grenade goes back out the hole, a troll in a tactical vest with a shotgun curses and dives through the hole (making it a bit bigger!) and into the room.

I know what the air spirit is going to do on its next initiative pass.
Need to know what DES will do on his next go (with rolls).

Posting IC:
Feel free to post IC of anything that is resolved to this point.
Or wait until we get through the (potentially more conclusive) next initiative pass.
I won't be ICing unless, say, I think there are events not finding their way into the narrative and want to get them in before things move much farther forward.

Vexboy quick draws his Fichettis from his arm slides and fires at the guard nearest to him. He has Stick n Shock active.



Fire Weapon (Left Hand): 6d6t5 1

I spend a point of edge to reroll the other numbers.

Fire Weapon (Left Hand): 5d6t5 4



Fire Weapon (Right Hand): 6d6t5 3

Then he goes on Full Defense.


Full Defense: 13d6t5 6

Well since they brought guns, it'll be a bladed fight from Rave. I figured she couldn't carry in the club which is why I never rolled weapons other than blades (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

@JDragon - a good turn for you, mainly because the four guys you are attacking fubared their surprise you. So while they still act against their target (Daphne), they are either too slow or two unconscious to react to you.

So, yeah, wearing your work clothes/gear, of course, since the scene was set as you showing up early for work.

Your basic run is worth 16 meters, more than enough to reach them.

Charge on the first attack, not the second.

Your blows kill both men.

Other two shoot tasers at Daphne, but a sudden strong gust of wind sends the darts swirling away harmlessly.

The stunned guys staggering out of the van she stopped are slammed back into it by the flying dumpster.

You might also notice that she is bleeding from her nose and eyes.

All that can be ICed.

I'll be following your IC with one of my own, so any of the above detail you don't feel is pertinent to your own story I'll stick in with my post.

You'll want wait to declare your next turn's actions until you see my IC.

DES action.
Commanding Voice Cha 5 + Leadership 1 + Authoratative Tone 1 - Stun Mod 1: 6d6h5 1
Reroll failures Commanding Voice Cha 5 + Leadership 1 + Authoratative Tone 1 - Stun Mod 1 = 5: 5d6h5 3
Targeting the troll. "Drop the shotgun and run!"

@Chalka -
more resolution going into second IP -

there is a big nasty fiery blast (not a flashbang) outside the hole in the wall - no game effect.

The troll practically landed on top of D-Pop, who was just inside the hole after throwing the grenade back.

Anyway, DES does his Voice thing and the troll looks confused and squeezes back out through the hole, leaving his shotgun behind.

DES's spirit materializes in the room, as does another spirit beside Bronwyn.

Outside the room, Vexboy fires two stick n shocks point blank into one guy's back. There is a lot of crackling around what is clearly a non-conductive jacket. The guy does appear affected, but not enough to keep him from turning and firing a burst from his cyber SMG at equally close range at Vexboy. But Vexboy's full-defense allows him to dodge, and the bullets go into the crowd. Vexboy has no further actions in this combat turn after the Full-D.

Rave stabs her guy in the back, but again his clothing is well armored, and he doesn't look too hurt. He likewise turns his cyber SMG on her. She partially dodges, which is to say she does not die, and her armor takes the brunt. The result is 5 stun damage, and you are knocked down..

Then an air spirit steps into the doorway and your guy jumps off the balcony in terror.

That pretty much ends this combat turn except that Rave has one more action...

Feel free to IC per my last two resolution posts.
Or if you are busy it's cool, later this week I'll put up an IC covering anything that was not covered in the PCs' IC posts over the coming few days.

Let me know if you have any questions or think I got anything wrong!

Here is his intiative roll since I can't do anything else.


Intiative: 4d6+9 22

I hope this asshole's skin isn't conductive. All he has done is piss Vexboy off.

Sorry for the the delay on the IC, i kept getting sucked in to a mapping project.

Nice to see that Rocky can still hit like a mack truck.

JD

Adamu: Two questions for you to help resolve Rave's last initiative pass....

Approx. how far did she "go down" from the particular asshole who shot at her?
And secondly, what kind of footwear is he wearing? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Hmmm - sounds like you have something specific and creative in mind.

Far be it from me to blow your ingenuity with arbitrary decisions - answer to both questions can be "whatever you like, within reason".

Does that help?

@JDragon -

okay, yeah, she's on the ground.

The sniper is still falling.

Another van is coming up fast.

The two guys that just shot at you - them missing you was a freebie - I just didn't want to have them doing nothing while the other events were unfolding.

But that was my last poetic intervention - you want to avoid their next shots you'll have to work for it.

All of my last IC was "outside" the initiative sequence, but we'll start a new one now.

So need all the usual stuff for starting a new Combat Turn!

Rave just wants to slash at her shooter's Achille's tendon above his dress loafers with the blade he so foolishly didn't disarm from her. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

You can use that second Blades roll and modify for her stun damage as necessary?

Your description of how you could turn your current position into an advantage caused me to disregard your attacking while prone penalty.

You cut his leg - nothing debilitating, but definitely hurt him.

@Chalka - okay, needed to move things forward, so I ICed all that has been resolved so far.

Do not hesitate to also do your own ICs from your own POV.

The only remaining foe any of you can see is the guy on the balcony shot by Vexboy and slashed by Rave.

As we go into the next turn, it is pretty obvious he is about to join his buddy in going over the railing.

But if anyone wants to try to stop him, roll initiative and give me actions and rolls.

If not, go ahead and IC or OOC-declare your next actions of the next several seconds - no need to mess with initiative and all that.

Adamu,

Some questions to get a clear picture of how deep things have gotten in the last 9 seconds or so.

How far is the van Rocky is fighting at from Daphne?

Also what kind of action would it be to pick her up?

Does the van Rocky is next to have any doors open, if so which ones? Also is it running still?

How long do I guess until the guys start exiting the third van?

Does it look like Daphne is still conscious after falling to the ground?

Trying to get a good read on my options, have a couple plans in mind.

JD

@JD - always happy to fill in any details you need to do something awesome.

The van you are fighting at was trying to get as close to her as it could - she is only three meters from it, with you in between.

I had to think about this same question recently in another game - action to pick someone up.
I think Simple Action (Pick Up Object) if lifting her is an autosuccess based on your strength.
If her weight vs. your strength requires a lift test, then it becomes a Complex action.
She weighs 55 kg.

The side sliding doors of the van you are near are wide open, the guys having just piled out moments earlier. It is running, and through the side doors you can see into the cab, where a Japanese man sits at the wheet.

You figure the guys will start exiting the third van (assuming that's what is going to happen) in just a few seconds.
In game terms, you are about to start a new combat turn.
At the start of the NEXT combat turn, they will likely start piling out.
Again, just you guessing - no promises on this one.

yup - Daphne bleeding out her eyes, ears and nose, and both knees shot out - but wide awake and relatively lucid

Im just waiting for everyone to roll initative.

Thanks for the information.

Does it look like he rigging or just meat driving? Also would rocky be able to drive the van or is it to small for his size?

Thanks

JD

He's meat driving, seems, since he's turned around in his seat looking at you in terror. Can't see his hands....

You driving....2.6 meters and 330 kg, right?
Can't find it in SR5 (if you do, cool), but there were rules for this in previous editions.
Not physically impossible, but -4 dice on any tests (driving or otherwise) made while driving.
