Yep, -1 for every successive dodge roll. Wound modifier might also apply.

| According to SR4 p. 143+, only a full burst (more then 6 shots) would be a complex action, a Long burst (6 shots) can only be done in full auto mode, but only takes up a simple action. Only one long burst can be fired in a single IP, but with another simple action (befor or after), an aditional standard (3 round) burst can be fired, the recoil for the second burst is -6. So Toy can do an additionell similar burst, but only with 3 rounds (DV 3 less) and with one less die, due to recoil. I would not use Edge (keeping it for the next long burst or what ever). |
Well, maybe I'd better do that in this situation.
So, would I just roll agility plus firearms? Is this affected by recoil? What would be the formula.
I ticked us ahead a tiny bit by editing the last post. I hit a wall of sorts, however, when it comes to the VR stuff. First off, Electron Storm doesn't work against nodes, only icons. To do much of anything, you guys will need to hack either of the two head commlinks which both have firewall 5.
Also, you guys controlling the dobermans should probably go ahead and make some rolls. There are currently three large trolls with axes headed for the doors.
Also, I'd appreciate if Auran narrowed down his target
There are lots of heavily armed trolls.

IIRC (can anyone double-check?) Youīd roll the following.
| CODE |
| Agility 7 + Firearms 1 + Lasersight 1 + Home Ground 2 - Recoil 2 (6 - Gasvent III & Shockpad) = 8 |
This is 8P/-1 base (8 boxes physical damage (6 base +2 because of 3 Roound burst)/ Armor -1).
You can increas your base Damage, by sacreficing dice (1 box / die; max. 4) in any attack (but I wonīt do so, here).
Instead of increasing damage, you are generally abled to shoot spray bursts, which decreas the defenders dodge pool (but with these Trolls, I guess damage is more use).
EDIT:
@ TG & GM & Rokur
IIRC, Auran is going for the Troll with the AK (or are there actually more then one?), as this seems to be the most heaviely armed.
Her target!!! and that's why I asked about the AK.... so yea.. Auran's shooting the AK troller.....

If the Armor (AP applyed) had been higher then the DV to resist (base + net-hits), the damage would have been converted to stun (sadly, this is not the case).

Since the Spirits are materialized, shouldnīt we be abled to see, what kind they are on a casual look? This would be interesting!
Following gare the attack-rolles of the Spirit of Man and the 3 Watchers against the Spirit attacking Shade. All of them will hold thair action, to attack at the same Init Score (I wonīt bother to roll Ini for all the Watchers, since the range from 2-4 is slower, then anyone else, anyway, I can roll later, if it becomes necessary).
I donīt know if Shade will allready count as a friend in combat, but if the Spirit attacks him in meele, I think he should (he will return the favour next IP), if he doesnīt yet, just ignote the last die rolled.

By the way, did you get my PM? I was offering you my services as assistant GM to run the game.
To get through the combat turns faster, we need to maybe plan ahead the actions to get the rolls in, so TG can tell us the resolution of the important points, and then we can post and act accordingly.
e.g. China Doll in subsequent combat turns is going tomove from the lounge to her bike in the auditorium, meanwhile working out how to get her team together for the run with the Felix's package. This will take a couple combat turns, and the only thing that matters is whether or not the trolls make it through the front doors.
For some other PC there is a lot more resoluton to go through, especially all the exchanges of fire, and it might help to do something like PC X fires a short burst from cover on the roof until PC X takes a wound and then PC X runs.
Until then, there may be pages and pages of flashbacks to sunnier days in the gang.

Ok then... if this is how we would want it....Here are Auran's actions for IP 2.... if wounded over 6P of damage, then she will spend her edge to go ASAP during IP2..., fire twice and start moving away from the windows.....
Auran's second IP action =
Free Action = Call shot Increase DV by 4
Simple Action 1 = Firing with right Ruger again @ AK guy (if standing).

Also, if the AK guy falls any non-shielded mages next, then wounded mages target 3....
Also, don't forget that shooting electric ammo can cause siezure-like stunning effects (taser effect.) We'll take any bonus we can get at this point

I see 3 hits. Should I use edge?
Thanks for all the help!
Ok... edge would be your call but right now, you're taking 8 physical damage from that first shot... also you have to roll dodge and resistance for the second shot as well....
If you used edge on your reaction test, I'd suggest spending one edge to roll your edge attribute, and explode your 6s.... then you subtract however many hits you get from the 8P damage already... if you get 3 more hits on reaction then you negate the attack (grazing shot)
On the damage resistance, you can spend edge to reroll misses or roll your edge attribute. (you can only explode 6s after rolls where you roll edge attribute, not on re-roll of misses) each hit again lowers said 8P damage by 1 per hit.... also, both of these edge uses would be cumulative, but that is your call on how much edge to spent... IIRC you have 5 left as of now....
Important reminder: Whatever you do, you also have to roll reaction and damage resistance again... unfortunately you got shot twice by an AK.....

OK, so I probably should use edge.
I can use edge once per roll, once for the dodge and once for the damage resist? Is that correct?
And if so, given that I have 5 edge left so far, how many dice shall I roll in order to do this? 5 and then 4?
nope, 6 every time.
Hmm... maybe I should change Raven's action after all and have her improve her Reflexes, so it won't be such a long wait between actions with so many combatants.

There's the problem with Line of Sight... if Felix is near you, then he probably has you covered.
Not sure, if TF has any, but Raven does not have Counterspelling, otherwise she would have moved into a position to use it, instead of hiding where she is.

1st I posted somwhere long ago (and on the wiki as well) that TFīs spirits will attack the spirit approaching Shade and Auran, not the one on the roof. Tag even announced over com, that heīll take the roof and I should take the other
2nd you probably did, but Iīll ask anyway. Did you account for the Errata, when calculating these spirits reaction score? Itīs not F * X, but F + X for all spirits (Ini allso changes accordingly). Allso, does the spirit get -1 die for every subsequent attack, it parries simultaneously, or does that only apply to full dodge/parry?
3rd here are the parry and resistance for the Spirit and Shade.

IIRC you have 5 left as of now.... Important reminder: Whatever you do, you also have to roll reaction and damage resistance again... unfortunately you got shot twice by an AK..... |
OK, I didn't use Edge the first time I rolled Reaction, so does that mean I can:
1.) Use Edge to re-roll failures with exploding 6s?
or
2.) Just roll 6 edge dice to subtract from boxes of damage taken?
@ Wounded Ronin
when re-rolling falures, 6es donīt explode
when using extra dice (6 dice in your case) 6es explode. but if you only decide to take extra dice after the roll, only 6es from the extra dice explode.
You can use either methode on either roll, but only one edge use per roll.

Well, I guess my odds are better if I roll edge for extra dice then. Here goes.
| CODE |
Rolling 6 dice for edge, leaving me with 4 edge. 6 3 2 3 1 2 I rerolled the one 6, giving me a 2. |
Is it just my imagination, or am I generally rolling poorly? Anyway, it looks like I'm still getting plastered pretty bad.
these are pretty bad rolls... given the fact that you can buy auto-successes trading in 4 dice per success.... heh... but hey, you take what you're given.
Also, not to put a damper on this... but I want to remind you that you have to roll Reaction and Resistance all over again for the second shot as well....
Now when you do these, and want your edge to work overtime (which you may want to do to stay alive....)
you can add edge attribute as a "combat pool" to your dice roll.... you can spend 1 edge each on the reaction and the resistance rolls...
If you do decide to do this... all 6s rolled explode.
