Hehe, nice one Havok *8-> And yup Fortune could be a good plan so we don't massively double up on leg work *8->

Um...

I wasn't talking about legwork in any way, shape, or form! I was talking about writing posts from the perspective of some of the dudes we know that are currenty watching the battle. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

I almost posted for Rook, just for the hell of it, because there really isn't too much to be said by Haven right now, but I figure he was easily swayed by Vixen's speech and didn't want to dignify that bitch by having anyone cheer her on.

Chris

Yeah, that's what I meant. I have been tempted to write a string of small posts for various and sundry assmbled Ancients, but then I think of the work ... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Hehe, d'oh knew I shouldn't have posted at 00:30 *8-> Brain not working too well *8-> In fact your idea was better than my tired brain thought it was Fortune *8->

Hey now... Fist IM'd me earlier at 7:30 AM... why no posty?

Chris

Because he's ................. slack!!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/nyahnyah.gif)

Your mom! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/nyahnyah.gif)

OK, up and running, all good to go. It was hardware stuff over here. Had to run new lines through the attic, blah blah blah.

OK, ruling on the Knockdown for Tain - Knockdown rules are for if you take boxes of damaged equal to your body, it requires a knock down test.

Tain's damage is reduced from 9 boxes to 6 w/ soaking. Trauma Dampener brings that down to 5, which is still equal to his body, so that still falls within KNockdown realm (pg 151-152 SR4).

Taking into account that it's a monowhip, not something known for it's mass, and that he does just barely qualify for knock down, we'll go with this:
Knockdown Test- Roll Body+ Balance Augment Rating : Threshold (2). Feel free to use Edge (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Lemme tell ya, warms the heart to see you guys so involved. I'm just going to hook DS up to my veins (somehow) and deal with these withdrawls sympstoms I've been having now.

5CSP to all for your patience and perseverence.

What about her?



Yay! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

She's a classy lady. Top notch.

SOrry about this morning Chris. My brain was working enough to go "Hey, Chris ...cool"

Then DS was down , and I was busy harassing Redjack. But it looks like it was a server problem, since he was able to poke at it either. Anyway, we're up and running on BOTH ends now, so everything is green.

News to me! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/eek.gif)

Apparently you just don't know her like I do. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

I didn't know you were a medium. How is the old witch doing? What's she been up to since we chucked her on the fire? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

I don't know why, but the phrase "up and running on both ends" just sounds kinda... eww. Anyway, Cell Bio test tomorrow so after all my bitching, I don't have enough time to post anything more thought out than this. Glad you are back though.

Chris

Oh, I would've, if I had any left. Ya jerk. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Looks like I'm in the clear, though. I think. For now.

Oh not me, but I know some people. She's well. Home fire's burning and all that. By the way, she says you should quit doing that one thing in the bathroom , 'cause it'll make you go blind.

Putting bathroom cleaner in his eyes? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

See, I'm not the only one that knows people that know how to talk to dead people. Good job Crit. Precisely that. And no drinkin' Draino either. Makes your pee weird colors.

Also tends to eat the hell out of your stomach lining. I feel like I've disappointed myself and all my RL friends. I had the urge to make a necrophilia joke after the whole thing was brought up, but I actually supressed the urge. Also, figures that today I'm up and was checking for you to be on a messenger program and you weren't but yesterday while I was sleeping you were. Whee, Cell Bio test in 30 minutes. I need a shower.

Chris

Looks like Tain's insane strip down worked out fairly well for him. Hey, Fist, I was thinking about what would have happened had Haven been the one to fight Vixen- besides me getting my ass handed to me because I'm way more guns and bombs focused than I am melee- would it have been permitted to use a stun baton and if so would they get pissed if you stunned the bike and made them crash that way?

Chris

I'd considered stun weapons. I don't see why not. Electricity is certainly no worst than getting hit with a mono weapon. Same for bikes .I'd considered having her go for Tain's ride, but really, a monowhip doens't seem the type of weapon to use on a bike. If she'd been using something else perhaps.

Sorry I missed ya' Chris. I jsut figured 'well hell, Chris won't be on...':D

If I wasn't berserk, I'd have totally been fucking up her ride, for the record. As it was, it just seemed more in character to ride the frenzy and stay single-mindedly focused on her.

One of my mantras in a Western game back in college was "You don't have to shoot the rider, you've just got to kill the horse." My lawman, "Buckshot" William Travis, became known for keeping bandits off stage-coaches by doing a number on their horses. I figure the same logic works with monoswords and motorcycles. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Heh, if I ever have to fight bike-to-bike and it ISN'T an honor challenge... well, someone is getting an EMP grenade or dynamite or something up the tail pipe. Once the game really gets moving and I have some cash and maybe a little time I'm going to create some chemical adhesive and some circular charges pre-designed to direct the force inward. Vary the strengths and they will be good for everything from blowing out lockplates on doors to destroying the front wheel of a bike or car to blowing a big hole through a Troll heart. Apply to chest and activate!

Mmmm... chemistry and physics.

Chris

I would really like to play in a Western game at some point. I think that would be all kinds of fun.
