not to be picky but.. shouldn't your first simple action be "ready weapon?"

It was already out and ready, silly. nyahnyah.gif

Loving those sucking chest wounds in the yaks. (I hope I don't get any back)
Thanee
I suppose Ghost isn't too far away yet?

Anyways, first action will be Attribute Boost and quickly moving back into a position from where she can charge into the triad guys.

Attribute Boost (Strength) 1 hit (and a Glitch... hmmm... what might a Glitch do on Attribute Boost? Additional Drain, I guess?)

Thanee
Faraday
What does adrenaline boost do? question.gif
Thanee
Err, I meant Attribute Boost, of course. embarrassed.gif

Bye
Thanee
Faraday
Ohhh, strength boost? A glitch would probably boost your muscles as normal, but make you stiff or maybe your clothes won't fit as well (decreased agility or movement).

Oh, yeah, J, in case you need me defend against attacks, I put some in the spoiler. If you need me to make more dodge rolls, I'm going to be worried for Warden's continued health. If there are any negative modifiers, just take those dice off the top.

[ Spoiler ]


Although, if this luck holds up....maybe not?
J. Packer
Thanee, you are close enough to close the distance between yourself and two of the three Triad mooks with a simple action move.

Cruiser had readied his weapon earlier. I believe it was in IC post 89, that Cruiser pulled out his SMG in his right hand and hiding it under his jacket.
J. Packer
Yeah, I went back and double-checked. Both of your combat monsters readied their weapons in previous posts.
Thanee
HAPPY NEW YEAR! smile.gif

At least around here it is 2 am now.

That would put thanee at 2 simple actions. The other one being the strength boost. >.>

And happy new yeaarrr! (In 2 hours)
Von
Happy New Year everyone! I think I may be stepping onto the court from the sidelines relatively soon smile.gif
J. Packer
Thanee, can I assume that you're using one simple action for your boost, and another to close the distance between you and the two Triads?
Thanee
Hmm... I actually wanted to stay a couple meters away still (so I can charge in with my next action). Ideally somewhere near a car or so, that they won't immediately see me (and if so, I would have some cover at least). smile.gif

Bye
Thanee
Thanee
If there is a truck in front of Rick's car, the cover part shouldn't be much of a problem, I guess. wink.gif

Do I see this right, that An Peng is now "around the corner" to me?

Bye
Thanee
J. Packer
Think more opposite side of the truck.

Note that the vehicles around you are in various states of "oh shit!" attempts to escape as well, without much success.
J. Packer
Well, Jonny's luck holds, but his goon and the triads are all apparently very, very lucky...
sabs
btw, JP..
the stun gun I'm using uses wires.. so I don't have to hit him again to fire another dose next round right?
J. Packer
I can't find any official rulings, but I'm going to say that a target of a successful taser shot has to spend a simple action to remove the dart lest he take another jolt. Does that sound reasonable?
sabs
completely reasonable.
Faraday
So yeah, I forgot how nice it is to have super high body and armor to match. >_>

EDIT: Holy shit. Invisible castle loves me.

EDIT EDIT: Would getting on top of the car be a free action or simple? (Probably a gymnastics test if I want to do it with any haste, obv)
Thanee
Don't forget that movement normally isn't an action at all... it just provides modifiers to your actions taken... but climbing/jumping up a car or somesuch might be a simple action for the skill use.

If you choose to use a skill to do it - gymnastics for example - I can see that being a simple action. Otherwise, to keep from being totally off balance, a complex action to clamber up on top.
J. Packer
Aaaaand the Triad streak of luck ends just as quickly as it began. Who glitches on a Reflex roll, honestly...
Thanee
Wow! We are making quite short work with them...

Bye
Thanee

I survived the first IP.. I'm amazed.
*faint*

2 combat monsters at work will tend to chew people up. >.>

Also, Jessie is powerful, but the ammo capacity is a bit limited. I'm down to half my drum already. D:

You didn't just survive, you went through it untouched! :O
Thanee
Are we at the 2nd IP now? Seems so, Cruiser and Warden both have their 2nd action done, right? So it's my turn, I guess. smile.gif

And we really need to do something about An Peng... so, how about Ghost running around the truck and charging the troll (hoping that the mage didn't have enough time to also learn unarmed combat wink.gif).

Ah well...

Bye
Thanee
Thanee
Charging An Peng with 4 hits (base DV is 7P)

Depending on the result, I might follow up with a Finishing Move.

Bye

J. Packer
You might need to modify your results based on his held action (see the IC thread).

Defense Roll 3 hits

I didn't realize/recall he was wounded already (so I will do physical damage with Killing Hands instead of stun damage then; edited above accordingly wink.gif).

Bye
Thanee
J. Packer
Okay, I think we're done with the second IP, and I don't believe anyone has three of them...

So we're back to the top of the order...
klinktastic
Woah! That was like a "rip the heart out punch".
Thanee
Five Point Palm Exploding Heart technique! biggrin.gif

I was quite surprised by that outcome myself. smile.gif

Bye
Thanee
J. Packer
Well, he had taken quite a hit from the SMG earlier, and when you roll zero hits (thankfully no glitch) on your evasion, it leaves you open to serious issues. smile.gif
Thanee
That certainly helps. wink.gif

Only Jonny and one of his mooks are standing now (Jonny with a bit of a shock), right?

That is correct. Jonny, behind the door of the Nightsky, and one of his guys, standing between him and the driver's side of your car.
sabs
I think he took 6 boxes of shock..
Btw, JP did you make his willpower test?

QUOTE
A successful Electricity damage attack can stun and incapacitate the target as well. The
struck target must make a Body + Willpower (3) Test. Apply half the character’s Impact
armor (round down) and any other dice pool modifiers as noted above to this test. If the
target fails, he immediately falls and is incapacitated for a number of Combat Turns equal
to 2 + net hits scored on the attack test. Even if the target succeeds, he suffers a –2 dice
pool modifier to all action tests due to disorientation from the shock for the same period.
Incapacitated characters are prone and unable to take any actions.

Yeah, for once he didn't glitch on a roll against you, sabs. smile.gif

That was damned inconvenient of him.
Faraday
Don't worry, I'll try to fix that in a sec.

I kinda want Jonny alive smile.gif
at least temporarily.

Me too. I have 7 stun in my hand.
Thanee
The Nightsky is right behind Rick's car? That shouldn't be too far away, right?

Can Ghost cover that distance and do a leg sweep under the door against Jonny?

Bye
Thanee
sabs
Rick is going to go walk over towards Jonny on his initiative. But given he goes last.. ah well.
J. Packer
I would think so, Thanee. You have a straight shot down from that side of the vehicle, don't have to weave between the cars.
sabs
Couldn't you just kick the door in his face and do stun damage smile.gif

Aw, I wanted to see thanee to do a door-face kick. frown.gif
