Okay, here's the deal. I need to make a gang that is clearly overpowering to a spider-rigger in a bunker. But they don't have much in the way of nuyen.

The gang consists of:

Five trolls, one of whom has an obvious cyberarm. These are the gang leader's personal bodyguard.

Six orks and four humans. These should be more or less the cream of the thug crop, but most of them should still be regular thugs.

Sticks, a barrens mage who has initiated once, likes to summon spirits, and carries an Ithica combat shotgun loaded with APDS.

One Force 5 Spirit of Air. This is Sticks' personal "bodyguard" spirit.

Five Force 3 spirits (may or may not be air; Sticks likes Air, but he'll use whatever's good.) One of these is already in proximity to the rigger, the others are on drone-defeating duty.


The gangers are inside the second chamber (the meeting room) of the rigger's bunker. At least one of the drones inside has proven to be extremely lethal at melee combat; the Force 5 is on duty to smash it when it makes a hostile move. The other drones are..... Fuck, how the hell did he get.... Nevermind. I'll post his character sheet for audit after I'm done this post.

Anyway, I want him taken out, dumped naked in Glow City with his commlink, and a call placed to the first contact on his list to pick the dumbitch up. He wants to roll this out, so I need to roll it.

I don't know the first thing about magic. At least one other ganger should be a mage, and a couple of them, possibly the trolls, should be PhysAds. The gangers can be quite beefy on karma-improvements, but poor for nuyen.

How do I build this? How do I even go about starting this? All of my personal experiance is with hackers and gun-bunnies. (Sticks' shotgun and APDS represent the largest recent expendature of funds the gangers have available. They can have some minor cyberware, but not a lot. Bio is right out.... I just don't know what's appropriate.)
