[Cedric Rolfsson]

Intuition + Perception = 5

Low Light + Flare Comp as well:

You asked for 5 rolls and your target is 5 ... here are the results:


1: 3
2: 6 + 1 = 7. ... Success
3: 3
4: 5 ... Success
5: 6 + 1 = 7. ... Success

3 successes

[WinterRat1]

BC - I have Thermo, Low-Light, and Flare Comp.

Cedric - I was wondering, what is the meaning behind your notation that reads:

"2: 6 + 1 = 7. ... Success"

I assume you mean on the second dice you rolled a 6... but where is the +1 coming from and why do you have it equal 7? Even if dice explode due to Edge use, they would add extra dice to roll, they wouldn't add to the result of the previous die roll. Just curious what you meant.

[bclements]

WR is correct: unless you're using Edge, 6's don't explode. Even with Edge, the 6 is still counted as a success; the 'splody die is counted seperatly from the original 6.

[Cedric Rolfsson]

No I'm not using Edge or anything like that, I'm simply using an online dice roller from 3rd Edition and then copy and paste the results.

[WinterRat1]

BC - Are we waiting on you to post the results of our perception rolls, or are you waiting on us to act in the shop?

[Cedric Rolfsson]

BC- one of the things I'm looking for in the shop is the telecom/phone system. I'm also looking for any signs that there are security cameras or anything.

Perception + Intuition roll: (no exploding 6s just old roller)

You asked for 5 rolls and your target is 5 ... here are the results:


1: 1
2: 6 + 5 = 11. ... Success
3: 6 + 3 = 9. ... Success
4: 6 + 6 + 6 + 2 = 20. ... Success
5: 3

3 successes

Dam but I wish we were still using exploding sixes, look at those rolls!

Oh well, I also have 1 point in the Electronics group, so we could use the same roll for if we substituted Electronics for Perceptions, dealers choice.

If I don't find the telecom, or a phone or security camera system then I'll look around for a message pad, and grab the garbage sack from under the counter.

Sorry for the delays: my GF's niece just had a kid and has been staying with us for the past week or so before moving back home. Been kinda hectic.

Should have something up by this afternoon/evening.

[WinterRat1]

No problem on the delays BC. Congrats on the...nephew, is it?

Dragon is going to concentrate on making sure the place is secure and let Erebus focus on the searching.

[bclements]

[WinterRat1]

Bumping the thread. You're up BC.

[bclements]

Post is up (finally).

Check in time for those who are cleared on SR4. Let me know your status, por favor.

SR13, 'Ronin: you'll have a post up ASAP on your part of this caper.

[Cedric Rolfsson]

I'm cleared I think, Bandit can you confirm? I've actually been running the SR4 version of Erebus

[WinterRat1]

I am cleared for SR 4, with the exceptions of the stuff I was using to test the Training rules. But for all practical purposes, I'm good to go. It's just that my character sheet looks like a maze right now. ;)

[banditf50]

Yes Cedric, you were cleared to run the SR4 version of Erebus.

[bclements]

Looking back through the main OOC thread, it looks like SR13 is SR4 Approved. If this isn't right, let me know.

'Ronin: let me know if you're approved as well. I'd like to know before I move too much more forward with your and SR13's portion of the story.

[Shadowrunner13]

I have an SR4 approved version of Tenmou somewhere... :)

SR13

[bclements]

SR13: I may need it soon :)

WR1 and Cedric: where y'all headed?

[WinterRat1]

Good question. Did we have a plan where to go next Cedric? I was kinda expecting us to get ambushed here, thus rendering that question moot for a while. :)

I'd imagine the next move would be to see what is on that telecom and determine if there's any leads we can obtain from it (the telecom) to help us decide what we will investigate next.

[Cedric Rolfsson]

I think we check the telecom, but we also need to look into the Yak connection, the guy from the Palace, page back to torture scene for name.

I'd suggest we head back to the safe house and probe the machine. I've got a 1 in Electronics group but I'm hoping we'll have someone better at computer stuff than me.

We may also need to contact a fixer to arrange for a hacker to get us a background jacket on the Yak guy who tried to have us killed since none of us are hackers as far as I know.

I'd really like to get Virgil up and running at full speed, since he's our magical muscle. If there is any way we can have him examined by anyone other than my Bear shaman street doc connection I'd like that.

We'll need to look at penetrating the Lone Star impound lot to get Daed's van, but we can probably do that tomorrow night rather than in what's left of tonight. That'll give my detective contact time to get back to me and maybe make that a little easier.

It'd also like a little more data on Vinnie, who he is and who he's connected to, so maybe some research on ShadowSea or the 2063 version of that would be in order.

From here I'd say a move back to the safe house is in order.

[bclements]

[WinterRat1]

Sounds like a well thought out plan to me. Want to post us moving back to Erebus's safehouse and officially lay out your plan in character?

EDIT: Unless BC has yet another ambush waiting for us before we can make it back to the safe house, that is. ;)

[Cedric Rolfsson]

You know BC, some Robitussin would help that cough. :)

Ya, I'll post us back to the safe house if BC gives the okay.

[bclements]

Heh.

You're ok to post, but oh, the weather outside is frightful...

[WinterRat1]

Bump. Cedric, want to post us heading back to/arriving at the safehouse?
