Anna's initiative for second round: Initative: 18+2d6 25

Considering we are invisible - are we allowed a sneaking roll to go unnoticed? or something like that?

Leader 34
bnc 29
Decker 26
Anna 25
Sharkboy 23
bnc's agent 21
Nova 19
Guard 6 17
Guard 5 16
Wraith 11

The Leader has his commlink active (R5 INT 7, WILL 5, LOG 5), but that's about it.

@gilga
Sure you can make a sneak roll - but for it not to be penalized you also need to succeed on a perception roll.

Leader Resist Invisibility: Resist: 12d6t5 4
Leader Perception Roll: Perception: 18d6t5 5

Leader opens up with a long salvo from his Ares Alpha, directed at [1 Shark, 2 Nova, 3 Anna, 4 Vehicle Occupants]Random roll: 1d4 3
Sorry gilga, the dice seem to hate you:
FA Salvo: 18d6t5 3
or not: -9 to defense, DV 14P AP +3 (Flechette)

Alright Anna would go full defense: Full defense: 13d6t5 5 Dodged a bullet (10 bullets actually).

Perception:
Perception: 14d6t5 4
If you allow: sneak (she is wearing a sleeping tiger that should give negatives but Ithink nevermind as the leader already fires at her).
Sneaking: 10d6t5 3

bnc tags the enemy leader:
Tag: 15d6t5 7
Opposed roll: 7d6t5 2

I assume that I can't use my net hits as there will be no other targets within the same PAN, right?

First pass, second combat round:

Leader 34 attempts to shoot Anna
bnc 29 tags leader
Decker 26
Sharkboy 23
bnc's agent 21
Nova 19
Guard 6 17
Guard 5 16
Anna 25 15
Wraith 11

Right, unless you count his trodenet.

Decker: Matrix Perception: 15d6t5 7
That one could actually succeed. Pitty, that his limit caps it at 5

Leader 34 attempts to shoot Anna
bnc 29 tags leader
Decker 26 tries to find bnc
Sharkboy 23
bnc's agent 21
Nova 19
Guard6 17
Guard5 16
Anna 15
Wraith 11

I wouldn't ask with a normal arrow, but what does the explosive arrow hit and does it cause any damage to the structure?

The arrow detonates somewhere in the background, damaging the common room's soycaf machine.

fire: 2#12d6t5 4 5 DV 8P AP-1
Guard5 fires at Sharkboy
Guard6 fires at Nova

Leader 34 attempts to shoot Anna

Nova 19 shoots at leader - misses
Guard6 17 draw beretta, fire

Nova dodges the attack with 8 hits (or 7 hits w/o Cover, in case that wouldn't count (she took cover on the driver's side of the van, behind the engine block)).

Bye
Thanee

Defense: 12d6t5 4 Grazing hit

Opposed roll: 16d6t5 9
Seems bnc is really elusive these days...

The agent is again checking for marks on bnc's deck: Matrix Perception: 10d6t5 3

Anna will cast the stunbolt spell on the leader.

Stunbolt - F5: 11d6t5 5
drain: 15d6t5 6

Leader
Resist: 5d6t5 1
Takes 4 damage

Nicely done.

The hounds are done for by the way.

So, uhm... I totally forgot that we drove in backwards, which means Wraith would exit the car at the wrong side - pretty much right under the leader's nose, if he's taken cover at the doorway to the left of the van.
Simply opening the door, taking cover and shooting him won't work with that positioning, as that would leave the van totally open to him. This means basically I have to interact with the van twice (e.g. "simple action: open door", "simple action: close the door", "free action: move into cover").

I thus ask our GM: Do you allow opening/closing the van's door to be one combined simple action (plus of course the free action for walking), basically opening the door and slamming it shut while dashing outside (in that example: closing the door as part of the free walking action to get cover)? After all, this is basically one flowing movement, it's not like he stops in the middle of battle and turns around to carefully put the door back in its original place.

Alternatively, if that doesn't work: I guess pulling tha window down and up again counts as two seperate simple actions as well?

Pass 2 will be...

bnc 19
Decker 16
Leader 13 (24 -1 for damage for -10 full defense) or Sharkboy 13 Not sure the order here
bnc's agent 11
Nova 9
Guard6 7
Guard5 6
Wraith 1
Anna 5 (15 -10 for full defense)

right?

Anna is at 5 in phase 2.

ERIC is the tie-breaker (Edge, Reaction, Intuition, Coin toss).

Thanee

The leader has Edge 5

Resist: 5d6t5 3
Takes another 2 damage for a total of 6, taking him down another 1 point of ini.

@Luckace
It's no problem to open the door with a simple action and kick it closed with a free action.


Round 2 Phase 2
bnc 19
Decker 16
Sharkboy 13
Leader 12
bnc's agent 11
Nova 9
Guard6 7
Guard5 6
Wraith 1
Anna 5

OK, then he'll use his free action to shut the door behind him. Thanks.
I edited my post accordingly.

Full Defense: 18d6t5 3
Leader spends Edge
4/5
Full Defense reroll: 15d6t5 4

Which is still not enough to avoid being hit:

13P AP-3
Soak: 20d6t5 4
Another Edge 3/5
Soak reroll: 16d6t5 3
Yeah, that's 6 additional Stun damage - Leader goes down.

Let's cut this short - the remaining guards break and make a run for it.

And here I was just trying to force him to spend edge or go to full defense to keep dropping his initiative.

He was full defending, already. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Would bnc come to the data theft? I assume it is her moment to shine anyhow no?
The rest of us are mainly there for security I think.

I most certainly hope so. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Every moment is her moment to shine ;-)

@Jack
I have a couple of questions.
1) May I assume that the file is both encrypted and protected by a data bomb?
2) Did I assume rightly that the Firewall is Host level +3?
3) May I ask my agent to support me in teamwork tests?
4) What level is the data bomb? (If I need to perform a matrix perception roll first, I will do so: Matrix Perception: 13d6t5 9 (capped to 8)
5) Are we looking for one file or more?

1)No, Just encrypted
2)correct, second highest is data processing
3)yes
4)see 1)
5)depends on your search result and how long you want to spend on searching
