Revan would some atral scouting around the gangs territory looking for threats. Also he will attempt to summon a fire elemental and earth.
Are you binding? You can only have one unbound spirit.

Chunan will be going to physically scout the neighbourhood. He will be looking for an inaccessible-to-most perch to lay low and observe the gang.
Will add that in post.

Damn! Really wishing I'd installed vision magnification into his goggles. Will have to come up with something else. Maybe a pair of optical binoculars.
From the surplus store?

Activity!

After Revan's report Kit will do a physical recon.

Post to follow tomorrow.

Merry Christmas all
Redjack
Worse yet, I'm on vacation, albeit a vacation at home still a vacation working trying to get personal stuff caught up (that was supposed to include my games). That and I agreed to a programming contract to raise some extra cash for Christmas. In any case, more apologies from your GM.
Saytr
Make that money man, papa needs new skill softs smile.gif have a merry vacation.
Grinchy McScrooge
Life always gets in the way of gaming, but you gotta take care yourself first, so I totally understand. Between finals and the holidays, I haven't had a chance to put together a post. I'll be doing that tonight or tomorrow.

I was thinking of getting the opticals from the surplus store, as well a camp sleeping bag to keep Chunan warm in his perch at night. He has Rating 2 goggles, but the slots are already filled. I'm assuming that you can't just up the rating on a piece of equipment, but need to actually purchase a new piece with a higher rating to get more slots. Is that correct?
Redjack
Do you all want another fast forward? Any changes given the details presented? Anything more for Jazz to look for?
Saytr
Please do I think just astral recon is what Revan will be do.
Thanee
Happy New Year! smile.gif

Ok. This time, I'm ahead of the players!!! Yea, go me!
Thanee
Whoops! Totally forgot about that update... doh! embarrassed.gif

Thanee
Redjack
Ok. What next? Any what in the world is Chunan going to do?
Redjack
Uh oh.... Am I losing players?
Saytr
No sir just needing a little push sorry.
Redjack
Ok, kinda waiting on Chunan. I posted the 2nd, pinged for Grinchy here in OOC on the 9th, PM'd him on the 11th. Today is the 14. On the 16th, he is declared MIA and I will robot Chunan. If he's still gone following that... Well, hopefully he'll return.

I would also appreciate additional details for Kit and Jazz given my last post. Revan has a good plan and I will follow that through in the next post.

Ditto!
Redjack
Ok guys. What do I need to do to spur you forward?
Saytr
Gang related info from the sounds of, outcome of surveillance basically and any matrix legwork.
Thanee
Oh, I could actually make a roll to accompany my last post about gathering info about the Black Rains gang.

Data Search + Browse -> 6 hits (non-extended; let me know if you want more rolls).

Who is the driving force?
Who holds the gang together?

Looking for fault lines both internal and external.

Who is butting heads?
Who is pissed off but not saying anything (to the boss)?

Who is addicted to what?
Who is slotting whose sister and they don't know about it?


I figure once we get a handle on them, we need to plant some bugs and inflect some commlinks.
cndblank
What can we do to help move this along?


Thanks
Redjack
Your GM is presently escaping the bowels of real life. First week of the month is hell week for me with personal commitments... then my laptop crashed this week. It is now back and going. Tonight I am off and the wife is out with personal commitments... so I commit to catching up all my games tonight. Sorry for the delay.

The gang leader is a heavily cybered ork who goes by the handle Rip; he is rumored to have been UCAS military special forces. His current lieutenants are rumored to be named Typhoid-Mary and a particularly viscous ork called Jugular. Anything specific you are looking for?
Thanee
Well, the idea is to maybe figure out some way to get them to help our cause (willing or not; knowing or not). Therefore, knowing some key people will certainly help. smile.gif

She is able to find a blog where one of Typhoid-Mary's crews were hit by the Chulos protecting, what she interprets to have been, a smuggling truck going through Carbanado.

Revan - Saturday, March 28th, 2071 @15:07; 18110 A S, Raven's Nest, Loveland, Puyallup District, Seattle
Kit - Saturday, March 28th, 2071 @15:07; 18110 A S, Raven's Nest, Loveland, Puyallup District, Seattle
It appears that I copied the wrong text during an earlier post. I assumed Kit to be hiding out in Kit - Saturday, March 28th, 2071 @15:07; Prairie View, Puyallup District in an abandoned house in the Prairie View neighborhood. So, to be clear, where is Kit currently?

Sorry - Cut and pasted the header. That sounds good. She would have created a forward base where she could get some sleep if needed but still be close enough to get them back under observation.

I'll edit it to show the correct location.
Redjack
Enough detail or do I need another day of recon/legwork?
cndblank
Kit is going to match scents up to the data that Jaz is pulling using Vomeronasal organ and Eidetic Sense Memory.

She figures that once she has the movers and shakers identified, she do a bit of backtracking to find out where they hangout and the like.
And who they hang with.

Also if we decide to bug/tracker them, she wants to know where we can get the most bang for the bucks.

Would a Spirit of Man's guard power help her deal with overpowering odors?

That will take time. I will post that with my next post.

Fixers work well for that.

I could see a spirit of air helping with that.

Sorry for being a bit silent as of late.

I'm still not entirely sure, what we can do now. smile.gif

We know a bit about the Chulos and their rivals, but we are still kinda randomly fishing in the dark.

We need to figure out some kind of plan and then fill in the missing details.

Got a few stones to step on now, so we should be able to get it a little more detailed.

i.e. do we want to negotiate with the Black Rains and "ally" with them, or do we want to play them against the Chulos and just lend a "helping hand" from the shadows?

Proposition it like the chulos are planning on taking the black rains territory pit me against each other and then offer a helping hand to the black rain in exchange for leaving the club alone.

Ya, it shouldn't be hard to bring matters to a head.

We're dying on the vine. Thanee posted a suggestion... I give me a direction and I will fast forward. I can move more to story telling mode, even to the point of closing out this run and moving on to another if you guys just aren't *feeling* this run...
Redjack
The death throes appear to be increasing... frown.gif
cndblank
That would be a shame.
cndblank
I agree about needing a plan, but I think we don't understand the conditions causing the problem.

I do think we need to develop contacts in the Blackrain and look for blackmail material on the Churos.
cndblank
Maybe an email reminder to the rest.

I know I can get busy and forget to check up on the game.
cndblank
Bump
Thanee
I'm here! smile.gif

Personally, since the Black Rains do not seem to be the nicest bunch either, I am in favor of playing them against each other. Give them something to occupy each other, so to say.

Bye
Thanee
Saytr
agreed get them to kill each other off maybe offer our help to the other in an agreement to leave the club alone.
