[Mister Juan]

Ludi actually has a thermal damping on her suit, at rating 5. So that's -5 even for thermo. And with the white noise generator, she can pretty much blanket ultrasound as well. So yea.

And no... she hasn't warned anyone they are getting swarmed from both side... yet.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ork.gif)

[ntwi]

Invisible is all relative, as none of that helps for concealment from the astral plane, so any mage or shaman that looks on the astral will see you just fine, and paranormal critters like devil rats always see on both the astral and mundane. And beside's, this is Felix and Ludi if the other one gets caught in the crossfire and can't be seen... oops (IMG:style_emoticons/default/vegm.gif)

[Mister Juan]

Hey, Ludi is looking out for herself as far as she's concerned. Now, if someone else gets hurt in the process.... that not her problem (IMG:style_emoticons/default/nyahnyah.gif)

[Bastard]

I believe everyone has moved twice. So here is what we need to finish up this combat.

1 - Ludi needs to reduce Felix's Force 6 Stunball

[ Spoiler ]

Force 6 M stunball
Sorc 6 + Totem 2
1,2,2,2,4,4,5,14 -> staging from M stun

PHASE 2 COMPLETE(see below)
2 - Bubba's last move
3 - EVERYONE Roll Initiative
4 - EVERYONE Roll Perception*
5 - EVERYONE Roll Willpower*

*While one or both of these rolls are not needed by everyone, having everyone roll is the best way to keep you all guessing! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/vegm.gif)

Looks like dad might be in a bad way. On another note, could this be the same Shaman giving us fits from the village? He's been following us the whole time?

@Bastard, do you have a combat diagram? Might help us visualize every-one's/things positions.

Yes. I will update it in a bit as well.
Precombat
First Turn, Round 1

[SneakyJoeKDB]

Missed those, that would have helped me earlier.

[ntwi]

I'll post my actions on Facebook at lunch as the army blocks dumpshock but not Facebook for some reason.

[Bastard]

Updated Map on Facebook.

The Map Links post is updated as well. This link is posted in the #1 OoC, post, which is linked in my signature.

[ntwi]

Look's like it's time to pull out the stops on this thing behind us.

[ Spoiler ]

Force 6D stunball

Sorcery 6 + Totem 2 + Expendable Focus (stunball) 3 + Spell Pool 4 = 15 dice
1,1,2,2,3,3,4,4,4,5,5,5,8,8,8,10 with a TN equal to Force

Drain (6/2 -1) (D+1) = 2(D+1) = 4D
Willpower 6 + Spell Pool 2 = 8 dice
2,3,3,3,4,5,5,17 -> 4 successes
Spend 3 minor karma to reroll two dice
4,7 -> 2 more successes = 6 successes total
4D stun -> 4L stun -> Trauma Damper -> No drain

So if it's Force 8 or less it has to roll 5 or more 6's to not take D damage... Eat stunball black thingy!

I have to IC all those NPC actions.

[Bastard]

While you guys are on your feet, the rats are striking with 4L +1 Reach, so essentially doing nothing. I wont even waste your times with rolls, as your armor would reduce to 2L.

The team just discovered however, that several of the rats are spitting corrosive saliva. You would normally have to dodge this, making a quickness defense test vs the rats attack. Unfortunately, since this is a surprise attack on Bubba, Starling, and Duster, I am not giving them the chance to dodge, nor will any of the other PCs until that character knows about the danger. After they are aware, Dodge Tests will be coupled with a Perception Test as well.

I am stating this now, letting you guys meta-game and call out to your teammates, cause I don't want this to lead into a miscommunication, but the next event that comes up like this, know that your characters cannot act outside their knowledge of what is going on. For example, Felix still does not know about the shaman, as the rest of you do not know about the dark spirit.

Bubba takes 2 Points of Corrosive Damage. Corrosive Damage does -1/-1 Permanent Armor damage per success.

[SneakyJoeKDB]

Meta gaming... who's meta-gaming? Felix doesnt need to know about the shaman because Bubba is pissed!

10 rounds -3- bursts at Mr. Gay Ratastic Shaman!

[ Spoiler ]

Burst 1 - 3 rounds DMG Code 13D
7, 5, 4, 4, 1, 1

In round three if the Shaman is dead Bubba will get onto the walkway and sling his HMG and pull out the combat Axe.

[Bastard]

I have to find his character sheet... but I don't think he is quite dead yet.

[SneakyJoeKDB]

Not dead? Simply amazing? I want what he has.

[Kliko]

Me too! You don't want to be on the wrongside of APDS

[Bastard]

Not dead? Simply amazing? I want what he has.

Because you are on High Tier now, I believe he was created with around 160-175 BP instead of 125 (normal), or 135 (your build). He has some magic armor and things to help keep him safe from 6 135BP characters, 2-4 of them who have 50-80 Karma as well. He was not built lightly, though my F8 spirit was supposed to keep some of you ocupado. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dead.gif)

Be away for the weekend, but will have my noteless laptop with me. Should have updated the page by Tuesday night. I sent Sneaky a picture of my workspace, and why I have lost the shaman... I believe he is being used as a bookmark in SR3, MitS or SRC somewhere... maybe Critters!

[Kliko]

Not to be a party crasher, but I thought the big machineguns were full-auto only?
