Given the world class opposition, we really might want a full swinging mage also...

Software(4) + Analyze(6) + Hot Sim(2) + Analytical Mind(2) [5,4,2,3,4,1,1,4,3,4,3,2,5,2] = 2 hits

Agreed - can we please recruit a full mage for the team? Thanks! With that we have the classic team - Hacker/Rigger, Face, Ranged DPS, Melee DPS and a Mage.

Yep, with the high-powered nature of this game, it really is for the best to have a full Magician onboard with Siren doing support.

Thanee

Redjack--All clear.

All--Did you have someone in mind you wanted to recruit? Otherwise, I can do a general recruitment.

Hmmm let me ask around.

In the Runner's Looking for a Johnson topic there are a few players looking for a game. Granted, they both are new to pbp, we have all the die hard pbp I am familiar with already in the game.

Hamagen (player in Buddha's thread, and face to face player) said he's interested in joining up. He should have something put together next weekend, so we can work him in soon.

Cool beans

Awesome! Thanks BishopMcQ.

What is that Hahn Free Market, BTW?

Bye
Thanee

Thanee--For IC info, Local Area (LA), Black Markets, or similar could help. OOC - Corporate Enclaves, p. 53

Aha, thank you... I thought it is some kind of Mall. Well, it kinda is...

I suppose Siren has been there once or so (likely with Papa), but doesn't know too much about the details (her knowledge skills are focused in a different direction).


So, I can roll some dice, too... here's an attempt to cast Increase Charisma into her Sustaining Focus.

2 hits on the Spellcasting and more than enough on Drain Resistance

Since that Spellcasting roll was quite lousy, let's try that again (drop spell and recast). There we go.

5 hits on the Spellcasting and still more than enough on Drain Resistance

Masking is set to looking like a mundane (including masking her spells and foci).

Saytr/Buddha--Are you two headed to meet Papa and Siren in Brock's vehicle? Let me know so I can make the bump for two or for all.

Sure sound good. Brock will put the grenade launcher away though and only keep his hammer with him.

All-- for a quick resolution in the market, each person makes up a shopping list. Roll your Edge and add up the numbers. If the sum is higher than Avail, that item is for sale at the market. If the sum is less, you have to go through the normal Availability tests and timelines. One test per item.

I will post up my list later. For the moment, Papa's edge is 5.

Edit: Wait. Did you mean something like:
Item #1: Edge(5) [2,4,3,3,6] = Availability <= 18

Exactly. Just line up your list, then roll for each one. That will determine if someone at the market is selling it during the time you are wandering the Market.

If the first item you were looking for was Avail 12, you'd find it. If it was Avail 20, you'd need to go through the normal rules/tests.

Edge is 3. Below is my current gear load out. I wouldn't mind trying to get a Singularity Battle Buddy Basic (8R/10,000), Firewall 5 (-/2,500) and a System 5 (-/2,500) for it but I am currently broke so I don't know if we have time to do quick job for cash or if I can get a loan to pay back out of future shares?

The System 5 does no good unless your response is also 5+. Firewall is a special case and can run up to R6, no matter the system. I can spot you 3,000 for that.

Papa will be buying a few personal upgrades and spending most of the rest upgrading drones and the van.

Papa's Shopping List

I can't believe the ones I missed... One line higher OR lower and they would have been available. Also getting (- availability):
- Biomonitor for Helmet {300 nuyen}
- Internal Air Tank , 2 hour for helmet {400 nuyen}
- Sling {10 nuyen}

With the misses above, falling back to my second list:
[4,2,1,1,5] (13) vs 012 - R5 Signal Upgrade {1,000 }
[3,5,5,5,5] (23) vs 014 - R6 Cameras [Flare Comp, Vision Mag, Vision Enh R3, Thermo] {1,150 }

Done.

That's why I would like to get the Battle Buddy Basic - it has a Response and Signal of 5.

If you're using stuff, subtract the cash. At this point, we are in the free form part of the game, so scene changes are driven by the team.

Saytr--I do need the Composure (3) test.

7d6.hits(5) → [4,3,2,2,1,3,3] = (0)
http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/3513689/

Saytr-- you can use Edge if you'd like, otherwise the Vendetta kicks in. How would you like it to go down?

I will reroll edge wow.

this is ridiculous http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/3513794/=0 hits i guess i will use another edge to reroll again so that Brock doesnt go bonkers and lose it in the market place.

http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/3513795/= 3 hits

Bad news dude. You can only use one edge per roll... Looks like psycho troll is coming out to play...

Bad mojo

Well, where's the fun without some complications.

Bye
Thanee

Can I get a Reaction + Intuition test from everyone please?

Saytr--You're at +3 dice for the test.

13d6.hits(5) → [3,3,4,5,4,1,3,6,5,6,4,3,3] = (4)

http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/3515031/

http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/3515038/ -> 4 hits

Bye
Thanee

Reaction(7) + Intuition(4) [1,4,6,5,5,6,5,2,2,2,3] = 5 hits

10d6.hits(5)=6

(Crap, sorry, wrong thread x_x. BTW, hi )

I figure from the description this ork belongs to the halloweeners but since Brock doesn't have gang knowledge he is unaware this ork belongs to the same gang that killed his family right .

Given the circumstances, without Gangs as a knowledge skill, you will recognize the design as belonging to the Halloweeners and know that it is the gang that killed your family, and is a prominent gang in your vendetta to destroy ganger-scum.

The Knowledge skill would tell you about their turf, modus operandi, relationship with other gangs etc, and identify ones that don't play a prominent role in your character's past.

All--Everyone scored more hits than the ganger on the Surprise Test. You all sense eminent violence between Brock and the ganger.

Olethros - 6
Papa - 5
Brock - 4
Siren - 4

Buddha any actions?

Ok since I don't have ANY social skills my chances of talking Brock down seem slim and in fact I run a pretty good chance of glitching in one way or another. I am going to delay and stop other gangers from joining the fray and hopefully just keep it a dust up between two free willed individuals.

Redjack--any actions from Papa?

Observe in Detail: Perception(4) + Intuition(4) + Observe in Detail(3) + Vision Enhancement (3) [2,2,1,2,6,4,6,3,1,2,5,4,3,3] = 3 hits

Redjack--there are no other Halloweeners visible in the immediate area. You do see several of the people with the obvious weapons, whose armbands match the flags on most of the permanent shops.

Saytr--Brock's action?

Crushing skulls. sorry ya'll I have to stay true to bricks character.

No worries.

Dice roll for clubs?

I want to make sure I put this guy down fiery and fast, going use edge point for added dice roll plus open ended rolling. how do I input that into invisible castle for rolling. Brock is also aiming for his head

Do Xd6.hitsopen(5,6) and it should work. If you want to call shot for more damage, -4 dice for +4 DV.

clubs 4 agility 7 called shot -4 using edge (4)= 11d6.hitsopen(5,6) → [5,4,2,2,1,[6, 6, 2],1,[6, 6, 4],5,3,[6, 2]] = (7)

Saytr--Thanks. In the future, if you can add the base DV to your post, it will save me some time.
