I cast manaball on the ghouls attacking us in melee. Area effect combat spells can be selectively targeted right?
I screw on my silencer and load my EX ammo. Dove Shaman: I refuse to attack those guards! We should try to get past them, and resort to non-lethal violence only if they oppose us. Sammy: I load my gun with gel rounds. Dove Shaman: ONLY if they see us and try to stop us. Sammy: I put a burst into this peacenik's chest. Rigger: I pull my hovercraft onto the road and merge onto the highway. GM: Uh, you sure? Rigger: yeah why? GM: The hovercraft is 6 meters wide. Rigger: Don't worry, it's a 4-line highway. |

is it just me or are the jumping rules a little too
"you have to be the god of jumping to succeed"? i mean, any person with 4 in the skill should manage everything but the most foolish things (HALO in a tornado, trying to land on a 2 meter wide platform) easily..... or? |

The jumping rules are tough, indeed.
Unless one of my runners goes for a HALO jump over urban territory during heavy storm weather defaulting to Body I let them off with a 14S Physical (broken legs etc.). Botched tests are never instant kills in my games. If they rule-of-one a jump, they might crash straight through the roof of the nearest Lone Star building, however... :grinbig: |

We were following a troll ganger we wanted to question. Aidley had a NEW SPELL™ she wanted to try out.
me: I cast a force 1 shape earth against the troll ganger. gm: er..... you remember that trolls have dermal armour, right? me: I cast a force 5 shape earth against the troll ganger. SUCCESS! gm: that troll is now toothpaste. He is sprayed 5 metres up the surrounding buildings. me: whoa. so i guess we won't be questioning him any time soon then? |

GM: The helicopter is heavily armoured and carrying anti-tank missiles on it's wing pylons. It flies swiftly across your field of view.
Player: I take 2 aim actions with my disposable RPG launcher. GM: You realize that the chopper is hundres of meters away, moving across your field of view at over a hundred k/h? Player: Yes, I take one more aim action and then fire a called shot at the exposed missiles. I have cybereyes with elecvtronic magnification rating 3. GM: You realize you would have to calculate the trajectories perfectly in order to- Player: Calculate? Trajectories? Wow, that sounds exactly like the kind of thing an encephalon and math spu would come in handy for. GM: ****! GM: You all wake up tied to chairs in a small, well-lit room. The walls are bare except for a reinforced steel door that looks like it is locked from the other side. 2 men in suits and shades holding torture devices are in front of you. One of them says "We have ways of making you talk." Roll to resist intimidation. Sammy 1: I fire my oral dart gun at the one who spoke. It's loaded with atropine darts. Mage: I launch a manabolt at the other guard. Sammy 2: I wriggle out of my bonds with my flex hands and cut us all free with my hand razors. Rigger: I use my headware GPS to find out where we are. I go open the door. GM: hah, the door is locked from the outside! Decker: I pull the c-4 out of my hollow kneecap and affix it to the door. GM: Goddamn. This is my last night GMing. |

Well my personal favorite i herd just last friday... One of our players shoots into a melee with a shot gun... to take out 3 babyGs and injures one of our team mates.. well the quote comes from the n00bie "Don't worry.... I GOT a MEDKIT"
Player say "Bang.. click...Crap out of ammo" Player Responds "Find a vending machine" Player Says"your hair ain't monofilament line is it?" Gm says "Oh they got combat pool TOO!" Gm goes "what armor are you wearing... ahh it doesn't reall matter" Player goes "I call shot... and roll... you hear several clattering of dice.. and the player counts... i got 12 sucesses" |

Actually: Shoot it Boot it Loot it Or the Cthulhu variant: Shoot it Reload Shoot it again Repeat as necessary If you're still alive and relatively sane, Loot it Edit: And the mantra of every thief: "I steal everything not nailed down. If I can pry it up, blow it up or cut it up, it ain't nailed down." -Siege |

Actually, this does have a certain amount of sense -- a silencer would help disguise the shooter's location and the target getting shot is gonna be hard to disguise. The fact the corpse exploded counts for brownie points. :grinbig: -Siege Edited: typo |
