Hmm, interesting.
Tell me if this is ok
Wagemage warms up a Fireball and launches it at 2 runners. (His magic rating is 6, sorcery is at 5, but he's only learnt fireball at force 4, and he uses an expendable focus force 4. His Spell pool is 5)
He chooses to cast his force 4 fireball with damage deadly (he's been offered a big bonus if he makes the runners history)
He's only firing the fireball, he has a clear shot. He holds all his spell pool and spell focus in reserve for the spell resistance test.
1. He makes a sorcery test, target number 4 , modified by target standing still -1, +2 for an extra target, end target 5
he rolls 3,3,4,5,9 making for 2 successes
2. Target 1 dodges, target number 4, using his combat pool of 4 dice (he gets 2 successes, and so dodges the fireball completely)
Target 2 is a little gun happy,and thinks he can shrug off the damage, he doesnt dodge.
3. Target 2 makes a damage resistance test. He is wearing lined coat impact rating 2. Target is Power level (force 4) - armor (2/2): target of 3
He has a body of 5, and combat pool of 4 dice, so 9 dice target 3
He rolls and gets 4 successes, giving him a net 2 successes, and staging the damage down to serious.
4. We then apply secondary damage to runner 2. Rolling 2d6 he gets an 11 meaning most things on target 2 will be cooked
5. Time to resist the drain. Drain code is 7D (4/2 + 1 +2 +2) and he has 6 willpower +5 spell pool + 4 focus to resist. He gets 3 successes, reducing his drain to a serious stun.
End result wagemage is seriously stunned, one runner is fine, one runner is badly burned and going off like a fireworks factory.
How does this look, did i follow the correct steps? (ie you can just dodge a fireball)
