Visual Perception
7d6.hits(5)=3

I am looking on the astral, using concealment on myself, and I put the spirit on stand by. Using Infiltration to hide using Argent as cover till we get inside. So pixie size!

Infiltration
7d6.hits(5)=1

Edge
6d6.hits(5)=4

Much better.

Buddha--Perception test reveals several electronic items hidden among the foliage. Both orks have weapons of some kind beneath their jackets.

Just giving a small bump to let you know I'm still here. nyahnyah.gif
BishopMcQ
Thanks JxJxA!

Redjack
Still here as well. I think: D'zan and Argent are at the casino. Uetz is home. Papa is at a Stuffer Shack near the team's house. Leo is unknown? Is that correct?

BishopMcQ
Leo is at home in the loft. Looks like we are waiting on Argent to answer the comm (D'zan still doesn't have one) and talk to the doormen.

Redjack--are you waiting on Argent, or heading to the Casino?
BishopMcQ
Fenris--I still need the Perception (Visual) test.
Buddha72
Hi all!

Is there any other tests/rolls I should be making to avoid being spotted?
Fenris
Right, sorry, sorry!

Invisible castle is down, so I hand-rolled my perception.

Visual Perception - 3 hits.

I'm going to assume you're going to want some sort of 'Con' roll? Can I buffer or add bonuses for the researched information?

Oh, and what did I get from my Horizon Employee roll from before?
BishopMcQ
Buddha--No other rolls at the moment unless you want to try something else.

Fenris--Yes, Con or Fast Talk would be appropriate. The knowledge rolls were included in the above info. Perception test notes cameras along the building and what appear to be pressure pads beneath the orks' feet.

I'll post up heading on over.

Going to throw up an IC post trying to use that "tracking sense" from the Hunt to see if one of the objects is in the casino.
Buddha72
Talked with Fenris and he gave me permission to IC us the hell out of there so we can get all back together again.
JxJxA
Making a knowledge check for a safehouse to take Rene and Etain to.

Hangouts(Safehouses):
Int(3) + Hangouts(Safehouses)(3) = 6d6 for 3 hits.
BishopMcQ
All--Where is the team going to meet up?

Redjack--What's Papa up to?

JxJxA--Many street docs have safe facilities, there are several run by organized crime syndicates, as well as, corporate safe houses. You know of a coffin motel in San Bernadino which offers secure rentals and automated medical services. Certified only, so minimal tracking and maximum discretion.
BishopMcQ
Hey guys--I'd like to move on to the next leg of the job. Do you need anything from me specifically to do that? Ideally I'd like to have all the legwork wrapped up this week, and spend next week making any plans for the job. Does that sound doable?
Redjack
Will post today.
JxJxA
Yeah, definitely. I've got a question on nuyen. I'd like to call a cab and take tweedle-dee and tweedle-dum to the motel with the auto-doc, but I'm short on cash (like 0 Nuyen, lol). Is there any way I could rifle through their stuff and see if they have the cash for the cab and care? biggrin.gif
BishopMcQ
JxJxA--rifling through their stuff, Etain has a credstick with enough money for a cab and the coffin.
JxJxA
Cool, thanks. I'll have a post up soon. smile.gif
Buddha72
So let's all pick a place to gather up and push forward from there as a group. That work for everyone?
JxJxA
I'd suggest home base (because I'll be naked once I shift back), but if someone has a better idea I'll edit my post so Uetz is flying in the right direction.

Invisible Castle is down and I have no dice with me whatsoever, so is it ok if I buy off the stun from the spell? I'm planning on casting Force 3 Shapechange(Golden Eagle) and I have 12 dice to toss for stun. The drain value is 3, so can I buy the 3 hits I need?
BishopMcQ
JxJxA--You're outside of combat and it's a RP thing, so that's fine.
JxJxA
Cool smile.gif
Redjack
Ok. "Today" came and went. Sorry - getting ready to go out of town on business for a week (over the weekend - uggh!) and have had commitments day and night.. Post is up, as it is.

BishopMcQ
Alright, so Buddha and Fenris gave me the okay to post the actions they were planning and then move on to a diner where everyone can meet and talk.

Everyone is together and ready to talk. The table has a built in holo projector that allows AR to be viewed by people without a commlink.
Buddha72
So are we going to try the plan thing or just kick down doors and take what we need? The good news is that our "johnson" probably could care less how loud and noisy we are and you PITO people could sell your feed about the daring robbery. smile.gif
Fenris
Well, we know that's where it is, and frankly, I have a hard on for UCLA anyway, so I say kick down the doors ;D
Buddha72
I was doing a running total o karma thus far and I have us at 61? That sounds right to people?

Anyone else for the direct approach?
BishopMcQ
Buddha--That matches my count for the weekly karma earned since the game went live.
Buddha72
Woot! It's official I can count! rollin.gif

Seriously - I am number challenged in a way that brings shame to my family almost weekly. embarrassed.gif
JxJxA
LOL

I'm fine with whatever route we take, though I'll probably not be too keen on a violent approach. I might also stay shifted in a critter form just to make sure my face doesn't get plastered all over the net since Uetz still thinks the Chimalli are after him.
BishopMcQ
Redjack--I haven't seen a post from you yet. Still with us? Is a smash and grab okay?

All--If you are moving forward with the smash and grab, can I have a rough sketch of your timeline? Are you going now (early afternoon), waiting for dark, dead of night?
JxJxA
I vote for going at whatever time will have the lowest level of security and witnesses, but I'll go with the flow.
Redjack
Smash and grab is good. Sorry. RL is kicking my butt, then as I pick myself half up it comes around and kicks me again..
I'll try to post in tomorrow.
Fenris
I'm going to second the call for the time with the lowest level of activity. I'm assuming night? But maybe not. Maybe Papa can do a quick search to help us avoid any late night activities that are happening.
Redjack
Scouting camp out last weekend, following my third week last month out of town for work... Another camp out week after next then hopefully the rest of the year will be a little more relaxed.

Search for campus activities for the next few days:

[6,3,5,2,2,6,6,1,3,6,6,6] = 7 [7] hits
[6,5,4,6,6,4,4,4,2,1,2] = 4 [11] hits
[5,1,1,3,3,1,4,3,3,4] = 1 [12] hits
[2,6,3,4,2,4,5,6,5] = 4 [16] hits
[6,5,2,2,5,6,2,4] = 4 [20] hits
[4,3,3,2,5,5,1] = 2 [22] hits
[5,1,1,4,2,1] = 1[22] hits - Glitch negates hit -
[5,4,6,1,4] = 2 [24] hits
[2,4,2,3] = 0 [] hits

24 hits
Buddha72
Ok going to cast some spells for the potential mayhem of hitting the campus

Increase Reflexes Force 4 put into sustaining focus
11d6.hits(5)=5

Drain 4
12d6.hits(5)=7

Enhance Aim Force 3 put into sustaining focus
11d6.hits(5)=4

Drain 2
12d6.hits(5)=3

Armor Force 4
11d6.hits(5)=5

Drain 5
12d6.hits(5)=5

That's it for now. smile.gif
BishopMcQ
All of the events, with the exception of the frat party, end before 11pm. By that point, it should just be drunk frat kids. maintenance personnel, and campus security.
JxJxA
Just giving a little bump. I think hitting the campus after 11PM would be good. It gives the kiddies a chance to get their draaaaaaaaaaaank on and hopefully be susceptible to a mass panic attack which would serve as a useful diversion as we snag the target. ;-p
Fenris
Pixie mayhem at a frat party then? Maybe something that gets two nearby frats going at each other? That should create enough excite to slow down campus security. I can disguise the other two of us (plus the shape-changed mage) and we can grab what we need. Do we have a specific location yet? Can the pixie doe a fly by on the campus to narrow the location down a bit?
BishopMcQ
Alright folks--

Last call for actions before night falls and mayhem ensues. I will be bumping Monday afternoon (PST) to the arrival on campus shortly after 11pm since there hasn't been any naysaying against that timeline.
JxJxA
Sounds good smile.gif
Redjack
Scouting Camporee is over and back home. Gladly, I have about 3 weeks of vacation to take by the end of the year!! Looking forward to that slightly more relaxed schedule I mentioned.

--------------------

Probe the node for admin access: Hacking(6) + Exploit Specialization(2) + Exploit(6) + Hot Sim(2)
[5,2,3,5,3,1,6,4,1,5,6,6,1,4,3,2] = 6 (6)
[6,2,6,4,2,1,1,2,3,2,4,1,1,1,5] = 3 (9)
[2,4,5,4,6,4,5,1,4,3,5,4,5,2] =5 (14)
[4,6,5,6,4,1,6,4,3,1,5,1,1] = 5 (19)
Just let me know how many are enough.

This way once we get there, I can penetrate when needed.
BishopMcQ
Redjack--There are no uniforms available in a size which will fit D'zan. Did you mean Argent?
Redjack
Doh! Yes.
BishopMcQ
All Edge from the metaplanes and the kitchen fight has refreshed. Edge expenditures in prepping for the campus heist are still spent.

Map of Campus and nearby streets

IC post is going up shortly.
Buddha72
So back sorry for the drop there - got a little busy. Did we have a series of action points or I am just looking for people and raising all sorts of holy hell?
