HeySparky
McQ -- I checked right before that post checking to see if there were any new additions and the picture was gone.
BishopMcQ
probably mislinked it when I made the updates....I'll fix it tonight
Ecclesiastes
The forums are fixed and I'm back!
Ecclesiastes
Can someone help me play catch up and give me a brief of what happened over the last few days?
HeySparky
Sure thing... After Bling's...

- Helios, Tiny, Gonzales, JT and Edana went back to Ballefour's to get a material link. We got one. Herne chased down a biker that was lurking around Ballefour's.

- Dumped the computer off on someone ... JT's? ... decker contact to be dismantled for clues.

- Dropped Tiny off at Ballefour's HQ to see what he could dig up there and the rest of headed to Edana's to start the tracking ritual.

- Charlie got his decker contact to verify that the train was headed to NYC.

- You (Ecc) were out of pocket for Bishop to send off to the CDC through Colonel Hodge (I think Gonzales may be taking care of that through his Doc contact - but I'm not certain) and I think someone asked poor Hung-Out-To-Dry Graves to get in touch with his contacts to get it sent off and it made him sad. Poor, poor Graves.

- Ritual was successful - turned up that Ballefour is 1) Dual-natured 2) Anxious about something and 3) In NYC currently.

- Everyone is supposed to meet at Edana's after they do their various checking out of stuff. Everyone has her address in some form.
HeySparky
Did I miss anything?

Oh, yeah, if you haven't you should check out the site Edana posted - McQ said he'd make periodic updates. The first link to it is on page 15.
Ecclesiastes
Bishop is Hun Out to Dry as well, so he wouldn't have any contacts to follow up with. He's likely just hanging out watching peoples backs. Ok, I'll post that he is driving over to Edana's place where the group is meeting up.
BishopMcQ
Kremlin--You could always call Chrissie and have her send some of the vaccine down to the CDC for Graves...

Johnson--You do realize that they are going to inject you right...not leave a sample of the serum in your hands to be sold on the black market...
toturi
Grave is not Hung out to Dry, but I didn't want to make use of another PC's contact without permission.

Here's my roll for Etiquette: 4 Dice with Good Looking and Knows it

1 5 8 9

Tell me if Grave succeeds in his request before I post IC please.
BishopMcQ
Toturi--Due to the nature of what you are doing, they are going to need to know what is being shipped. Your roll is good enough to ship anything that you personally have a permit for. Other gear that you want to ship will be based on availability--compare your etiquette test against the availability numbers of anything else you want to put in the box. It will cost 150 nuyen.
toturi
OK, guys anyone who wants their mojo/weps/WMDs/assorted tools of mayhem please post OOC and check that the Avail is less than 9.

BTW, how big is the box? Footlocker?
HMHVV Hunter
Ok, here's what I want transported:

-Colt Manhunter and 5 clips of Regular ammo plus the one already loaded in, and 3 clips each of oak-jacketed, iron, and silver ammo)
-Colt TZ-115 and 5 clips of Regular ammo, plus the one already loaded in, and 3 clips each of oak-jacketed, iron, and silver ammo)
-Katana
-Combat Vest
-20 pistol pouches
-10 shotgun pouches
-Grapple Gun and the spool loaded in (300 meters of stealth line) and the catalyst stick
-Personal Comm Unit

I think I can wear a lined coat on a flight with no problem, and my rucksack and three changes of clothes can be my carry-on luggage.

I hope this box is REALLY big nyahnyah.gif
BishopMcQ
150 nuyen.gif per 20 kilos.
HMHVV Hunter
Hmmm...

-Colt Manhunter w/silencer and concealable holster: 3.45 kilos

-Katana: 1 kilo
-720 total rounds of ammo and the clips they come in: 49.5 kilos
-20 pistol pouches (just realized I don't need the rifle pouches): 0 kilos
-Combat Vest: 0 kilos

-Personal Comm Unit: Don't remember, so I'll just assume 1 kilo.

Total: 69.95 kilos

Bastard
I have a permit for all my weapons, but i think its probably best to ship my Boomstick. So here is my list:

-1 Boomstick shotgun c grenade launcher*---8.1kg
-3 concussion minigrenades (stun grenades)*---.75kg
-3 neurostun minigrenades (tear gas)*---.75kg

-1 armor jacket---2kg
-4 plasti-steel restraints---0kg
-2 clips (24 rounds) gel rounds Ruger Thunderbolt*---.75kg
-1 Harley Davidson Scorpion---350 kg
-4 breathers---how much do these weigh

*indicates permit

JT will carry Ruger with permit--that alright McQ

Total weight: 13.85kg (+breathers)
Cost: 150 nuyen.gif
BishopMcQ
Bastard--Respriators weigh 1kg

Johnson--Is Tiny going to stand in line long enough to get the injection or is he going to leave the line now?
Johnson
Stand long enough to get a sample of the injection. preferbable grab the injection or bottles and run. I will alter IC if I have too.
BishopMcQ
If you're going to grab the injector and run, we will need to modify a few things...if you just want to get injected that's fine.
BishopMcQ
Oh, and I almost forgot...roll your unaugmented Body...
toturi
Guys, I think we all should at least have permits for our sidearms, yes?

I'll understand if that SMG and katana of Hunter's doesn't come with a permit, my carbine doesn't either(but it didn't make the Avail cut which is my own fault) but come on, this isn't Fedex!
Johnson
The body role unaugemented.

Body
16 15 11 09 05 05 05 04 04 02 01

Preferable I should try for the Antidote bottle and the injector as a last resort.
Kremlin KOA
okay will garry my manhunter in airport luggage, have a permit for that. the squirt II and it's ammo can go in ther box, as can my gyrojet pistol, along with my stun baton and the shock glove, my hardliner gloves can go with me as they almost definately will not be noticed inside my mortimer Ulysses coat. spare gloves and clothes can go with the gun in the luggage (what kind of conc bonus does wrapped in long coats give to a gun?)
Johnson
When I get to this point.

This is what I will be taking.

Weapons:
Pair of shock Gloves -- 1 kg
AZ Stun Baton -- 1 kg
Browning Max Power -- 2.5 kg (Permit)
Conc quick draw holster -- 0.01 kg
2 clips Regular Ammo -- 2.5kg
2 clips Explosive Ammo -- 3 kg

My Manhunter doesn't have a permit either. Nothing I carry does.
HeySparky
I knew it!

I knew he was sick! And sick. And sick.

I didn't think he was using his own blood, though. I wonder what he's afraid of or if he's just uncomfortable with craving metahuman flesh.


To ship:

- (2) Ranger-X Bow (STR 3 and STR6)
- (2) Ares Monosword
- (96) Arrow of various types (all within the availability)
- (1) Force 5 Weapon focus +1 Reach (also within the availability)
- (2) Urban camo

Weight: 21kg

All this can break down into a large military ruck (I'm thinking sea bag).
All have permits and are registered under her bounty hunter's license.

Does there need to be permit for Herne?



I keep getting Graves and Bishop confused. Sorry about the mixup.
BishopMcQ
Sparky--When I went to check the page last night, the picture was showing up...let me know if you still can't see it
HeySparky
Actually, I just checked it and it showed. No idea.
Bastard
Everyone: What about the Battletachs? We need to bring those too
Tanka
I'll wait until all the posts catch up with getting to our meet before giving out info on Ballefour.

I'll assume you need a permit for a crowbar (nyahnyah.gif), but not for a knife. The shotgun and ammo will need a nice hiding place, naturally.

Armor comes, obviously, as does the Comm Unit and a few restraints (5x each Metal and Plasteel).
Ecclesiastes
I'm a little lost here. Are we putting together our gear list for the trip to NYC?
BishopMcQ
Ecc--Some people have gear that they don't want to explain to customs, so they are shipping it in a box through Graves' contact. Apparently a lot more is being shipped then initially planned.
BishopMcQ
QUOTE (Kremlin KOA)
(what kind of conc bonus does wrapped in long coats give to a gun?)

That depends on the method used in searching for the guns...X-ray would be different then opening the suitcase...
BishopMcQ
Note: If you are going to Edit your posts drastically talk to me first, otherwise I skim past things without re-reading them. That being said, I let Ecc change his post so that Tiny doesn't have to face 30 guards with guns and an angry mob all by himself.
BishopMcQ
Johnson--Roll reaction as you start to move, also what is your plan?
Ecclesiastes
Running a sensors check of the area.

09 09 03 02 01
BishopMcQ
Ecc--A Large crowd of metahuman bodies is between your position and Tiny. There are several metahuman forms moving on roofs of buildings, obviously armored. Other armored forms--riot gear--are moving along the edges of the crowd. Rigger traffic is present but you do not sense any drones.
Ecclesiastes
Oh this is just ugly.
HeySparky
Wow. I was looking at the games here at DSF.

Most of the games that have gotten as far (in pages) as we have were started months ago. We're smokin'! And not just the crack rock.

toturi
Guys, if you have a legit permits for your stuff.... please please carry it yourself. I think we should reserve the box for more sensitive items.

BTW, McQ, I'm going to try to smuggle the carbine in but I'll do it broken down. Can I roll Security Procedures to check the feasability to of that idea? If Grave thinks it can work, he'll break the carbine down and ship it.
BishopMcQ
With a succesful B/R check TN6 you will be able to break it down far enough that it cannot be detected.
toturi
OK, 4 dice. 3 3 5 (1)

Johnson--You've already grabbed the goods, now you are in the running away phase of the operation. Guards are drawing beads on you, the reaction check is to see if one side surprises the other with their reaction otherwise it goes into Initiative...

Tiny has a reaction of 6, so roll 6 dice TN4...
