Salted Wounds [OOC], a Deep Black Sea game Options

[SquirrelDude]

PC's are making Surprise checks, and Sharkboy has Combat Sense 1. Does he get his automatic perception check to get the potential bonus to the surprise check?

Perception (Audio?): 13d6t5 4
Surprise: 11d6t5 3
Surprise Perception Bonus: 3d6t5 0

Doesn't matter either way, avoided being surprised with them.

[SquirrelDude]

Someone correct me if I made a mistake

Alright, no-one's surprised here (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Resolving attacks:
Anna targets A: Defense: 12d6t5 5
1 Net success, Armor has Non-Conductivity 6, but no helmet, so Soak against 10S(e)

No Damage

Nova targets B: Defense: 12d6t5 6
2 net successes: Soak against 15P
Soak: 12d6t5 4
Goes down with exactly filled Condition Monitor

Survivers A and C resolve their attacks against Anna and Nova

Anna: Shoot: 12d6t5 3
9P AP-1 -5 to defense
Nova: Shoot: 12d6t5 0[12d6t5=2, 3, 1, 4, 1, 1, 4, 2, 1, 4, 2, 1]
Misses and almost caught a glitch

init was 15, but I'm not quite sure what to do yet ^^
I guess there's no need in trying to avoid an alarm now.

[Gilga]

Anna goes full defense dropping Init to 20.
Full defense: 17d6t5 6

[Thanee]

Nova: Shoot: 12d6t5 0[12d6t5=2, 3, 1, 4, 1, 1, 4, 2, 1, 4, 2, 1]
Misses and almost caught a glitch

Wow! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Bye

[SquirrelDude]

Alright, Sharkboy is up.

Archery [9]: 19d6t5 6 SnS+Static Shaft 12S(e) -7AP

Guard A
-1 from earlier attack Defense: 11d6t5 2 Soak 16S(e) -7AP
Soak: 19d6t5 5 Takes 11S(e) damage

If the guard goes down, Sharkboy will put his bow back up and just walk and stand next to guard C.
If the guard doesn't go down, he'll string another SnS arrow as he moves out of the elevator.

Char.----Init.------Declared Actions
Anna-----30->10----Fires taser dart, Guard A. Damage soaked. Full Defense
Nova-----29->19----Shoots Guard B. Knocks him out. Moves out of elevator
Guard B---21-------KO
Guard A---20->10---SMG FA Burst, Shoots at Anna. MissesKO
Guard C---20->10---SMG FA Burst. Shoots and Nova. Misses badly.
Sharkboy--19->9---Shoots Guard A. Knocks him out
bnc--------15->5----Hacky things
Wraith----10
Nyan------unclear

@Volker Maybe hack their comms and prevent Guard C from sending out an affirmative alert?

[Volker]

Sure, worth a try, though I'd assume that some of the guards will have their biomonitor report to a spider. Also, Rosenberg's already alerted about the dog and one of the guard not responding. If anything, I can buy seconds here.
Still, it's seconds.

Watchdog: 15d6t5 5

I assume that all of the commlinks are slaved to the host?
In that case: Opposed roll: 18d6t5 6

If they're not slaved, please roll their opposed roll instead. If they are, I fail (not surprisingly).

[Luckace]

I'll wait with Wraith's action until bnc knows whether she failed or succeeded in suppressing alarm - and would have time to notify her comrades with a free action.
@Volker: Keep in mind that Wraith's Influence-spell can also attempt to prevent an alarm, if he knows that bnc had no luck there.

[Jack_Spade]

Yeah, the comlinks are slaved, so no dice I'm afraid. But don't forget that you have the commlink of the unconscious guard to gain a direct connection with a MARK on the host, which you can enter to gain direct connection to all slaved devices.

[Volker]

But that takes time. I need at least one action to hack the commlink, another to enter the host and a third to hack the other commlink - that's two full combat rounds. That's why bnc wanted to do the hacking before they step out of the elevator.

[Jack_Spade]

That's why I asked what you are doing in preparation during the three seconds (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)
So feel free to get in the host beforehand

[Luckace]

Anyway, Wraith's action will definitely be trying to cast Influence on the remaining guard.
If bnc's message from the IC-thread remains, the command will be "Take them on all alone, no need to inform anyone."
If the host access makes her succeed and she tells the team that she's got this, the command will be "Know what would really intimidate these punks? Throwing your gun away like you don't need it."

Influence F5: 14d6t5 3
Resist drain with prayer: 12d6t5 3

1 drain taken. Now down to 8/11, -1 penalty from now on.

[Volker]

That's why I asked what you are doing in preparation during the three seconds (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)
So feel free to get in the host beforehand

Oh, thanks!! Obviously, I got that wrong.

In that case:
Attacking the commlink: Watchdog: 19d6t5 10
I don't assume it has enough dice to defend against this ^^
Ooops, I rolled two dice too much. Still...
Enter host.

That would have been the three seconds of preparation.

Attacking in phase 15: Watchdog: 15d6t5 5
As for the Opposed roll, i just assumed a generous 12 dice:Opposed roll: 12d6t5 1
haha, with that roll, I'd have hacked the host, too ^^

So I should have a mark on him which allows me to intercept any calls or whatever goes out.

[SquirrelDude]

So, am I right to assume my shot incapacitates guard 1, and if so, do folks want to start posting things in the IC thread in proper order?

[Jack_Spade]

Oh, yeah, sorry, Sharkboy takes down the Guard A as well.

[Gilga]

So next to resolve is if Wraith's influence spell causes the guard to drop his weapon, and then Nova and Anna/Guard (not sure which is first).

[Thanee]

Also, if we want to move this whole thing into IC, you should start by posting your action from Ini 30 there. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Thanee

[Jack_Spade]

Influence Resist: influence Resist: 8d6t5 3

Next Ini Phase, Anna is again the first to act

[Gilga]

Fire + aim: 16d6t5 6 Another taser dart.

[Jack_Spade]

Guard:
Defense: 12d6t5 3
Soak: 21d6t5 7
Takes 5S(e) damage and loses 5 points of Ini

[Thanee]

Any reason why we are not using the IC again? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

@Gilga: I am mostly waiting for your IC post to continue...

EDIT: Thank you! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Bye
Thanee

[Volker]

What matrix activity can I see on the other side of the door?
Is Rosenberg's commlink online?
Should it be running silent: Matrix Perception: 11d6t5 4
If I can spot it, is it slaved to the host, too? Also, what's it doing?

[Jack_Spade]

Well, within 100m there is quite a lot of matrix activity.
You can't make out Rosenbergs commlink. You do know that he is currently talking to Nacl, so it is likely that his icon is either running silent or within the host.
So the question is: Is bnc currently inside the host or outside?

[Gilga]

Luckace - to remaind you - before it becomes important. You do not HAVE to take the -1 to all action. Wraith already knows that Anna has the resist pain spell. (which is considerably more useful than I first anticipated).
