Cool - all that is doable.

@Jack and Raider -

Jack, you stated you were going to head over to the other rooftop.
So the next action took place while you are en route. You can currently be anywhere you like on the ground between the two buildings.

Raider, I understand you were going to remain on the first roof. Any details you can give me on where exactly you are waiting up there is appreciated.

The sniper nest you found, just to repeat, is in the northeast corner.
The hinges you guys messed with are on the door in the northeasterly of the six larger blocks clearly visible on the map.

Jack, did you indeed leave a grenade or something in the sniper nest?
Can you let me know exactly what it is and the triggering options?

Thanks!

Jupp, it's a pepperpunch grenade, with active wifi (running silent of course). So when the time comes I can just detonate it with a command over the matrix.

Sneaking: 14d6t5 6

Well he is in the room waiting. He is gonna sneak attack the guys. Not at once he is gonna wait for an oppurtune time to get an easy kill. He is hanging on the ceiling and they have a minus 3 to hear him.

You do realize that that would likely alert the Koreans that their second location is compromised?
The taking out of the snipers should wait until the rest of the team is here and the Kids are delivered.

Raider - your character is a ninja - super well hidden it looks like (barring unforeseen factors....).

But just want to be on the same page with you about the setting.

Can we clarify where you are hiding?

Not sure what ceiling or what room you are talking about.
The sniper hide is a cobbled together pile of junk with just enough room for two people to lie flat in.

Or you could mean one of the six roof access structures - you would have to get into one, though...

Or, if we have envisioned things differently and you were thinking of some room that isn't there, feel free to apply those six successes to some other spot you can find on the map.

Where is the link to the map again?

I last bunped it in post 2585.

I only have a mobile and can't see much. I am in the l
Process of saving up for a full comp. I meant the room directly outside the sniper hole. Is that usable?

Sorry about your tech issues, that's a challenge for you.

Wish I could just handwave something for you, but there's just no way what you're posting IC makes sense - there's just no ceiling anywhere that you have access to.

You are on a huge rooftop (just to repeat what's already been posted) of about 100 x 120 meters. There are a lot of HVAC units. There is the low sniper nest. And there are little structures that house stairwells up to the roof, none of which have you accessed yet (you have partly cut through the hinges of one door, but not gotten it open).

Please also assume you have access to the incoming texts - if you are making do without an image link, that's fine. but you could have your commlink set up for voice to text, or if you strictly read off your screen then assume you are just so good at hiding where you are hiding that you still have a hand free or something.

So let me know where you are hiding.

Aside from that, you are of course free to do what you like.

Just a heads up, my hard drive fried today so I am computerless for an indefinite amount of time.

Raiderj, mad props to you for posting like you do from a phone... Just posting this is killing my patience.

Could I hide on the side of the building? In the alley where light wouldn't shine?

And it took practice Vegas. Turn off spell check. Im not kidding. It helps.

There's not really an alley - you are on a giant warehouse (a present day Home Depot superstore), with a lot of wide streets and parking lots around it.

But don't worry about shadows - you've already aced your Sneaking roll, so we assume you are finding the shadows that will conceal you.

Yeah, you can find a place to side on the outer wall below the lip of the roof, no problem.

@Raiderj

You don't have a trodenet for your com? That's highly unprofessional.

Also, the roof is huge, you can easily just get behind an AC unit without risk of being seen or falling of the roof (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

I have trodes just no image link.
And behind an AC it is!

In that case you don't need an image link - it takes care of all your AR needs by stimulating your visual cortex.

Well I have a post to edit. Can Vexboy use the activation code in AR?

Yupp, that's why I've sent it to you

@My side of Tangled Currents -

just a quick GM/players base-touch.

- People on evening of 21st: Got Vexboy on the roof over the target, John with the Koreans. They are a couple of hours ahead of the rest of you, so feel free to take any actions you want (prep? research? more scouting?). if you are good, then let me know that too, and if everyone is fine we can move time forward a bit.

People on afternoon of 22nd - we're about to go on combat time I thin...probably move forward once we hear from Aria vis a vis pre-combat actions and/or responses to Tanya's queries/requests.

Don't want to rush lovely people busy with RL. But also want to give everyone some idea of which balls are in which courts.

And of course if anyone is waiting on me for anything, do let me know!

Hey all, sorry for the delay in getting back in to things after vacation. I've glanced at the IC but need to read it in detail, which I hope to do in the next few days, but the first half of the weekend is looking busy.

Glad I didn't have Rocky doing anything important.

Rocky will continue to use the time to sleep unless he is needed to help with something.

Since it's also for a TC thread, I suppose I can use this one too for the OOC stuff.



Don't forget that you probably have perception modifiers. For example, you're specifically looking for the man, which gives you a +3. There may be some penalties too of course, you should refer to p135, CRB for more details.
And maybe you know...change dice. The one you are using seem a bit subpar (IMG:style_emoticons/default/nyahnyah.gif)

Ok, quick spell casting for Spriggan, trid phantasm force 5 12d6t5: 4 [12d6t5=2, 3, 3, 6, 1, 1, 1, 2, 5, 4, 6, 6] drain = force (IMG:style_emoticons/default/nyahnyah.gif)

14d6t5: 3 [14d6t5=1, 5, 4, 2, 4, 5, 2, 4, 4, 5, 2, 3, 1, 2] so that's 2 drain, could be worse I suppose (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I'm assuming that you can conjure an illusion through a window...and that indeed I can see one?!? Trid Phantasm I've always played as being a complete overwrite of the existing condition...so it can make Spriggan invisible while she's in its radius...but if you disagree shout before I write the IC up please (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

He probably doesn't even have a defence roll due to surprise, so you got that going for you.
If your goal was to have the mercenaries in the vicinity of the car take cover, you should have taken a suppressive fire action no? And since (if I understood right) you are behind them, they'd have to expose themselves to the vory to take cover from you, so good luck. Plus, they would have had a penalty to all actions, seems nice. No?

Echo is actually ahead of the two vehicles. He is looking directly down at the men who are firing at the wall for some reason.

@Aria Adamu is on and has not responded, so maybe he agrees with your concept..........................................

LOL I am just being itchy. Take your time and do the post how you want it. It has given me time to think of how badly I might be screwing this up, but I guess we will find out if the two of us can survive this. I hope that you have a good exit strategy, because Tanya does not. This is all so much an adrenaline rush to her and fits right in with he risk taking attitude.
