It's still in the room.

Somebody chuck that thing out the FREAKINGWINDOWPLEASE.

And somebody more nasty than Edana needs to decide that we need to recover Ballefour's head. He has a datajack - may also be memory in his now rolling noggin.

If you think I'm gunna touch that thing, you got another thing coming.

I'm using air timed grenades so mine should go off before the other does. I've also got my smartlink with the rangefinder and all that junk to reduce TNs.

First shot at the grenade: 20 16 05 05 04 04 03 03 02 02 01 01

Second shot at the mercs: 07 05 05 05 05 05 05 04 04 04 03 02

Well I can dive on the grenade if I have to- it would be in my character to do so---so when the time comes-hand of god save me

other than that it looks like Im spending a lot of magic pool or combat pool

Everyone is suddenly so paranoid about a little grenade...

Toturi--you're up.

Baastard--You're right behind him.

Question: Where is Grave's position? Can he fire upon either of the 2 remaining targets while taking cover behind a wall? If so, he fires 2 burst at one of the society guys.

2, 4, 4, 9, 5, 2, 8, 13
7, 1, 3, 5, 9, 2, 11, 3

Toturi--Yes you can take a shot from behind cover. You are currently at the top of the stairs near the door to the Marquis' suite.

OK, so Graves takes the shots as above.

Is anyone in immediate danger?

I will wait until Graves turn is resolved before my turn.

We're, a bunch of us, online right now... what the heck are we going to do? With the big picture?

Well, its hard to move foward without the GM giving us updates.

*kicks McQ into gear*

No, I meant on a bigger scale.

This is a noble we just witnessed killed. And I bet you ANYTHING, the Society is going to pin it on us. Or we're going to get smeared in some form or fashion. We need to get proof it wasn't us.

We need to figure out how we're gonna get out of here. The van is totalled.

We need to figure out how to make sure Ballefour's company pays for his/their indiscretions in testing.

We need to figure out all the loose ends on our website - Melchior Munitions anyone?

Also, like I said earlier, gruesome though it may be we need to grab Ballefour's head in case there's any data in his noggin that can be salvaged to save the good of what his illegal research accomplished.

We need to find out what we can about his condition.

We need to find out who the hell these Society guys are and figure out just how pissed they're going to be when we've killed their guys and stolen an expensive focus. And just how much badness they can bring to bear.

But first, we need to get the hell out of here.

Don't worry about the Society pinning us. Bishop has an Opticam in his eye and got all this on video.

I'm sure there are some cars we can use. Maybe get us a nice limo.

What is the URL for our website?

I agree about the head thing if he is dead dead dead. Anyone got a heal spell they can slap on him?

Bishop can fill you in on the Society guys once the heat is cooled down.

He is dead dead dead. Decapitated. His neck was vaporized by the explosive ammo. Imagine that his head hit the ground with a not-at-all-right thunk.

At least, that's what McQ said when I asked.

I get the distinct impression I'm about to share Balfour's fate

Oh yeah... crumbs - someone needs to slap a heal on Helios!

Once the remaining 2 targets are down, we can get to binding our wounds. So take down those last 2 guys fast.

Ok, so who's action is it now then?

I think Bastard was waiting for toturi to finish his action before taking going.

No McQuillan was not the poster for the last comment above. He was over at my place last night and appears to have hopped on my computer to check the boards. I was unaware of this so did some posting as him, sorry about the confusion.

Well, either way, my answer still stands.

I don't believe the guy is still standing... That was 2 12D bursts (base damage is 9S).

Toturi--My understanding is that you put a one burst each into 2 separate society members. And 12D isn't that hard to soak with a high body, combat pool and a lot of armor. (Heavy Security + FFBA)

McQ-
Its my turn-how close is Helios? Can I get to him, if not to heal him now, at least cover?


Team- should I drop an IR SMOKE? I think the invisability will be more effective then, and I could keep two or three of you under while you attack.

Bastard--You are about 2 meters from Helios. You should be able to walk to him. Note the invisibility won't be effected by the IR smoke, though the smoke will certainly add its own visibilty modifiers.

for the IR smoke, i think it will bother the society more than us, especially if they are using thermo vision.

Where is Tigger?


I will move as stealthfully as possible moving to Helios, and I dont have a heal spell, but at least I can cover him so he doesnt take another hit, and if I could I would like to change my magazine from stun rounds to my APDS rounds.

First Aid first or Magic? Cause I have First Aid Skill.

Stealth (Sneaking) 4(6)
8,5,4,3,2,1

Tigger is somewhere in the room covered in Freeze foam.

Biotech before Magic...

Yay for IR Smoke when I have Ultrasound Vision.

Toturi--Noted. I will re-roll the second soak test for the Society member.

Toturi--To check, what kind of ammunition are you firing? (Important for barrier damage.)

Buddha--you're up. I need an athletics check TN 4 from you to determine how well you were able to avoid the freeze foam.

The base barrier rating is 12, each success will reduce the barrier rating that is encasing you by 1 pt. To be able to move, I'll need you to either be free of the foam or break free.

What can Tiny see from the bottom of the stairs

blood, guts and misc. Bellafour parts

Well considering you are all upstair and I am still down stairs, yes. I am debating coming upstairs. but if they are making a run for it then I will make way to the out side.

Ecc--You're up.

Toturi--You're right behind him.

Firing off a round at each with my Gamma Scope capsule rounds.

First: 20 13 09 05 03 03 03 01 01 01
Second: 09 08 05 04 04 04 04 03 02 01

Lean out, shoot at the same guy again.

2nd burst: 2 4 3 9 10 2 13 5

Johnson--It doesn't look like the team is going to give them the option of making a run for it.

Buddha--You're last action.

Team--Is your desire to gun them down or simply leave them unconscious?

Ok going to hit the stuff with my acid shrouded fists to get my self free

JT wants justice, and since that cant be reached, he thinks the only way for these guys to go down is either leave them here for the authorities, if possible, or gun them down.


In case there is another initiative phase:

6,4,4,3 +6 (-2 for sustained spell) = 23 edit:21

I will be out of town next week, heading to Wieser ID (don't ask) but I will be in Seattle for 2 weeks after that so I'll be able to post from there. Good luck and feel free to NPC me if needed.

Does anyone other than Bastard have an opinion?

looks like Ecc and I crossed posts...

What's it going to be team?

Uh, has anyone healed me or am I still bleeding to death?

I thought JT healed you?

JT moved across the area but he never healed Helios. I would need a biotech roll or a Sorcery test for Treat or Heal.

HMHVV--I'm going to need a Magic Loss test from you, and if you'd like to self-stabilize to avoid bleeding out you can roll your Body against a TN10.

Body test: 4 dice

1, 2, 4, 8

Magic Loss Test: 2D6

6

Fuck...

Y'know, if I'm this cursed with bad luck, just let me die. I've lost interest in this game anyways, so this is a convenient spot to drop me off.
