I'm assuming you mean 138th Pl NE. 1 Block away.

Reaction Roll: Reaction 4 -> 4d6 -> [6,6,3,4]=2 hits Link
Soak Roll: Body 3 + Ballistic 6 -> 9d6 -> [6,6,6,3,1,6,4,5,5]=6 hitsLink
1st Pilot: Reaction 4 + Pilot(Bike) 3 -> 7d6 -> [1,6,1,4,6,5,2]=3 hits Link
2nd Pilot: Reaction 4 + Pilot(Bike) 3 -> 7d6 -> [6,5,1,5,1,3,4]=3 hits Link
3rd Pilot: Reaction 4 + Pilot(Bike) 3 -> 7d6 -> [6,4,1,5,3,6,4]=3 hits Link
I guess I get 3 hits on my bike tests. I'm suffering a -1 modifier due to 2 stun damage that is not taken into account with those rolls. Reduces my soak roll by one hit, all others are unchanged.

Wow, beginning to see why this rigger/hacker stuff is so complicated to GM.

Even if your node is on Hidden, if you want to communicate you have to broadcast something on the radio. I have no issues with not seeing Nevada's comms, because she hasn't broadcast anything. But if she wants to talk to ANYONE, there has to be some way for the signal to get from here to there. Like the radio. Broadcast anything on the radio, and everyone else (if they're listening on the right frequency pattern) will be able to hear it (including if you're broadcasting among nodes slaved to your PAN, but you'd have to be close to intercept the traffic since they're signal 0. Hence the value of skinlinks). I perceive hidden as being more of a wireless protocol thing and generally minimizing signals, but if you want to use any wireless-radio device you have to broadcast, and others can listen.

Hence the difference between sniffer and scan. Intercepting comms is much easier, since I'm just listening to the radio. Scan looks for commlinks that are active on the matrix or somehow willing to accept INCOMING signals. Sniffer looks for OUTGOING radio signals, and the rating is the number of frequencies and frequency patterns it can monitor. Sniffer would not be able to detect, for example, wireless traffic from a small device to the nearest cell phone tower, unless the receiver's within that small device's signal range. It would be able to detect wireless traffic from the cell phone tower to the device, unless the tower broadcasts on low power to things nearby.

I fully admit the unclarity of the rulebook, but sniffer has to be useful for something; and high power radios have to be useful for communicating directly or there's no point in buying signal ratings.

#1. Didnt pay for his cyber with essense. You pay full amount for whatever you have the most of and then half off the other type. He has .7 and .7 so that should be around 1 or 1.1 essense total loss.

#2. Geisha you might want to list that your predator gets smartlink for free in your gear list and choose what and how your carrying stuff.

#3. is more for Sparky and Vegas. Somebody loped off the bottom of his mechanics page. (wasnt me hehe).

#4. Oh and to whom i may concern. He has all those stun weapons and I dont know the official damage values for that stuff i guess. I think they changed between the book and the SR4 Errata or something especially SnS ammo. I filled in the book values anyway. So if anyone knows the official numbers they can correct that stuff.

Ok Fool's intent: He will move east or west to find an opening to the north and back onto the 132nd street and then head for Child's location which I believe is one block up from the 132nd + 124th Ave NE intersection. He should know where an opening is behind him to the west so if its a long ways off he will go east.

Comm chatter back at child in case you post this next IC:
"Roger roger, I will make my way towards your position. Keep your comm on. If you dont see or hear from me in roughly 10 minutes forget about me and just look after yourself."
