LOL, indeed.

Okay, I'm back now, Redjack do I need to note any additional stun damage from that action?

Are we in a place I can leave my bike? How much is the cost for leaving the bike at the garage we're at? I'd like to ride in the car since I drive for shit and need to rest to clear up the one drain if that's okay.

No stun damage. Spell cast at a low enough power.

You are at Anytime Parking, a fenced lot with an attendant that is open 24x7. Fees are 3 /hour. Full day passes are 30 /day and weekly parking passes can be had 100 each.

Ok Team #1. I sync'ed everyone up to the same time and brought Trigger back into the game.
Your move...

Welcome back, Trigger/Tigger.

Umm, I thought Carter had already left the Cat Scratch and gone back home to gear up...Shall I go back and modify previous posts?

He had.. My bad.. I'm editing mine...

Sorry - That was total brain fry on my part...

Glad to be back, hope my stuff is still good for you guys.

Team 1: I edited my previous post.

It is a tradition among my Pencil and Paper group that IHOW gets mentioned at least once per campaign, if not once per session, so I thought I'd throw that in. For some reason I thought of it once and everyone really found it hilarious.

Ok Team #2: Sounds like your ready to move on be I need a little more of the specifics and it looks like Thanee is given the lead. So what route and where would you like to drop the bike?

Edit: As to IHOW... Just as an FYI Saytr is in my table-top group, so there have been several subtle references there already..

Alright, the Johnson sent us the information of where the pick up point for the package is going to be, but I've been looking through both threads and I can't see where anyone actually slotted the chip with that info on it. Maybe I missed something...

I'm pretty sure that Collateral would suggest Hell's Kitchen, because gangers are his scene, not elves, but we do have two elves in the party so that might make the Tarislar route a bit more appealing.


I guess I knew you'd looked at the chip, but I didn't see an actual street address for the pickup point or an approximate destination. It is nice to have all the important information in one place, though.

im pretty sure its all in the IC thread

[quote]
She sits back in her chair and slides a chip case onto the table, "Included in there is the address to pick up the first case, the GPS coordinates and time for the drop off, the location to drop the second case and an LTG number to call if there are unforeseen issues. I would expect that you would be able to adapt to about every situation though so...." She lets her voice trail off as she looks around the room before starting again, "I have already transfered the expense money to Kilroy and I'm sure he will be contacting you with your replacement for the overpaid ork. Any other details you require?"

"Kilroy said you might be a straggler, I see you found the meet. Please take a seat. The team has already agreed to a single payment of 8k for up front expenses and fifteen hundred a piece upon delivery. The basics of the job is to pick up a box in Redmond at 05:00 tomorrow and deliver it to my agent at a location in Tir at 22:00 tomorrow night. He will only wait 20 minutes. Interested?"

"That guy would truely be unlucky, since he would have trouble to move with that box attached to his arm..." Aeryn says, smirking, then goes on. "It's a rather big box. 2m by 50cm by 50cm and 45 kg approximately. Oh yeah, and we will have to carry it for a good part of the way."

Yeah, I read that stuff, but RJ usually likes to give us exact street addresses for things, which is why I was thrown off when it just said that we needed to pick up a package in Redmond. That's really what I was inquiring about.

my bad. i didn't know you wanted specific address lol.

Seriously!?

1 Microsoft Way? That RULES.

I think Aeryn lives over in Loveland (more Mafia territory), that is a ways to the south and west. It just so happens that Zion lives five minutes northeast.

lol great a ugly orc who doesn't like elfs will know where i live j/k.

it is getting a little hairy with time. i edited my post to compensate for storing aeryns bike

Taking the most direct routes via googlemaps, it will take us 7 minutes to get from Anytime Parking to Zion's Doss, and then another 46 minutes to get from Zion's to the pickup point. That's their estimated time using speed limits, etc, so we could shave some time off of it, but realistically we don't have enough time anymore to drop off the bike before getting the package. Going right from anytime to the pickup spot has an estimated time of 47 minutes - right up our alley if we drive fast to shave a bit of time.

RJ - do you think collateral would estimate there's enough room in the back of the van for both the bike and the package?

Worse yet, you don't have room for the package and the bike in the back of the vehicle..

Perfect planning!

Ok, so there are basically only two options...

1) leave the bike here at Anytime Parking as we'll have to get back there, anyways
2) take the bike to the meeting point and remote the car from there

Doh! Guess we should have started to think about this in more detail the evening before...

Bye
Thanee

Well, I had collateral suggest the first option in the IC thread, so that would be my choice. Whatever you want to do is fine with me though, so feel free.

If this is the biggest wrinkle you all have in the next 24hrs!!!

BUHAHAHAHAHHAHA

Yeah, we'd better work on making decisions quicker, lol.

As you can tell, I like the challenge of time based runs. They tend to keep the energy up better.

I knew it, you planned all that from the beginning!!

Bye
Thanee

Even better is that events are occurring behind the scene (for both teams). Meaning that some events are occurring at specific times, irregardless as to whether or not the team is there to see it occur. NPCs are in motion as well!!!

Quick post, been gone for two days, unlikely to post till Mon-Tuesday, kids have strep, life sucks.

Hey RJ, I'd like to make the turn onto stewart avenue, and then stop as abruptly as I can, grab my shotgun off the back of the bike and then hopefully do enough damage to them as they round the corner to scare them off. I'll also use my huge bike as cover.

Driving roll to stop abruptly:

Reaction (4) + Wired Reflexes (1) + Pilot: Ground Craft (1) + Bike (2) = 8 dice
3 Hits

I'll leave the other rolls until you reply to this post, no need to get ahead of myself.

1) Driving the speed limit, just over, way over or foot to the floor?

Knowing quite a bit about the area, Aeryn should know what's doable without getting too much attention (as I have no clue )... probably slightly over the limit to catch up a bit, or within the limit where speed controls might happen or happen regularily.

2) I assume Hwy-167 to I-405 in Renton to Northrup (Bellevue) then Hwy520 to the edge of the Redmond Barrens?

Sounds good. Aeryn will try to avoid any obvious checkpoints, though.

Bye
Thanee

@Unarmed
3 hits is enough for a reasonable power slide stop.
Make an athletics test, a surprise test (REA + INT) and roll initiative.

@Thanee
Aeryn's smuggling experience in limited mostly to the Puyallups District and crossing the border there. However, she is very knowledgeable about smuggling routes in the area so give me a series of smuggling routes checks. First normal, second at -2, third at -2, fourth at -4.

i'm in the car, are we aware of ghe bad guys from where we're at?

I'm not quite sure what to post. >.<

hey RJ dont suppose i could do a logic test to see whats taking him so long i know its only been like three minutes but. just wondering.

@Collateral


@Cedric & Satyr


@Thanee

Okay, then I'll hook my comm up with Aeryn as she and I are in the vehicle together and then go back to summoning a watcher spirit which had been the plan before Collateral got into trouble. As far as I can tell the summoning should be only one combat turn, so I should be done before we realize that Collateral is in trouble but please let me know when we begin to suspect something is wrong. I'll do a quick astral scout and find him so I can share the data with the team.

Question, I'm hoping to avoid drain but I have 1 box of stun and am going to want to rest at some point before the meeting. Assuming optimal conditions how long is this drive going to take?

Magic + Summoning = 8 dice = 3 successes

You can link to this roll at

RJ


Drain roll DV3
Willpower + Logic = 9 dice = 4 successes

You can link to this roll at
http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1077311

This means I'll have a little astral helper available for 3 hours.

Athletics Test:
Agility (4) + Toner (1) - Defaulting (1) = 4 Dice

@Cedric
The current planned travel time is about 40 minutes.
What is the command given to the watcher?

Little feller, I'll call him Alpha, can do the Astral Alarm thingie around my person out to a distance of 15 meters. Any active astral presence, (spirit, magician, dual natured beastie, etc.) and it should alert me immediately.
