THINK fROSTY HAS WEDNESDAYS AND THURSDAYS OFF OF WORK AND HE ONLY POSTS AT WORK
Slacker
Yeah, Frosty doesn't typically post on wednesday or thursday. I am sure he will post later today....to say you all died. biggrin.gif
Shadow
Ahh but I really wanted to do 13m with my throwing knife!

Cop's Defense Roll: 4 unarmed + 7 Cpool (full defense allows no limit on pool). TN4

#D:11 TN:4 H#:11 S:8

eek.gif 8!

Cop's Quickdraw: 5 Quickness. TN7 (5+2 for non-quickdraw holster)

04 04 03 02 02
#D:5 TN:7 H#:4 S:0 *nope*

Jacky it's the same round, time for your second action.
Mister Juan
Sorry Qilin! Ludi is simply in a fight or flight mode right now, and with about 4 bullets in her body, all she wants is to get the frag out of there. I suggest you do the same wink.gif

Alright: Ludi will take her jacket/sweater off and wrap it around her waist as tight as possible (as if she was too warm to wear it... but its more to hide the wounds wink.gif)
She'll throw her quickdraw holster somewhere along the track, and simply stick her Colt in her belt, just like she did with the Predator with the jacket around them, they shouldn't be too aparent.

She's moving as fast as she can, looking for an exit of any kind down the train tunnel.
Qillin
so basically what i'm getting of the picture here is
the cop is trying to pull his handgun out from behind me because i missed him so my backs to him. Jack is facing where Ludi is taking off into the tunnel and he can see a tactical team coming in from the turnstiles in the corner of his eye.
and the cops smg should be in front of Jacky as he hit it out of the cops hands as he passes him.
FrostyNSO
You snagged the sling and the SMG basically went flying. Unless you were leaping I assumed you would be turning to keep the cop in front of you, even though you missed the tackle.

You never passed the cop, just missed wrapping him up. You're basically 8 feet from eachother facing one another.
Qillin
ok but i'm on Ludi's side now . before the cop was in between us.
Qillin
does jacky need to make a perception test to see the tact team coming in and Ludi leaving?

Hey Frosty, just wanted to note that it is up you if you want to roleplay out Wormwood's flirtations with the elf waitress. Or you can just post how well it went. I was just doing that to add some flavor to the meet with the Johnson and Gun.

The next day, Wormwood is going to take the Ares Exec. Protector out of its briefcase and try to wire up one of his micro-camcorders to sit in the case so that it will point out of the gunport hole in the case, and will be turned on/off by pressing the trigger button on the handle of the briefcase.
Electronics B/R Test

*cough bump cough*

Frosty posted in another forum game I'm in with him last night, so I know he is still around. Since he hasn't been posting much lately, I'd say he's just busy in RL right now.
Mister Juan
Good. I was scared for a second (since there haddn't been any sign of life since the 4th
FrostyNSO
Sorry I've been out, life is being shit lately. I don't want to jump in and do some crappy posts to move things along, but would rather wait until I can devote the attention the game deserves as I have (sometimes!) in the past.

As of now, I will be back Fraiday the 23rd. Can I get a roll call to see who all's willing to wait?
Slacker
I am willing to wait. Been good so far and looking forward to the rest of it.
Mister Juan
You know me mate, I'm all cool and frosty wink.gif
Take the time you need.
Shadow
been really sick so I am game for waiting.
FrostyNSO
You guys got lucky and are getting a bonus post. After this one, it will be Friday the 23rd though.

Shadow:

Right now, it seems you're ready to rock and roll. I feel really bad making you have to wait on the others, so if you have anything you'd like to take care of, just knock smile.gif

Slacker:

I'll let you take it from where I left off. Yes, you should be able to hook up that executive protector briefcase. I guess give me an Electronics B/R (4) test (It didn't sound like it'd be too hard to do something basic...extra bells and whistles would be harder. What i'm picturing is a 'you turn it on, close the case, then have to open the case to do anything else with the camera' setup. It will record out of the barrel hole just fine though...possibly not a full picture though)
Success on the test means you got it, and you can add something in IC, or not if you don't feel like it.

Qillin:

You never really told me what Jacky D was doing.

Mister Juan:

Not much to say, just thought I'd say hi.
Mister Juan
While I'm thinking about it... I burned one karma pool dice and used 2 (or is it 3) good karma points, right?
Mister Juan
Ludi activates her low light vision.

Here is a perception roll (in case the door is booby trapped or something)
[ Spoiler ]


And a little stealth roll

Yeah on the Karma Pool die...I don't remember about the 2 points though.

Electronics B/R:

The Protector's briefcase already has a button on the handle to activate the SMG it holds. I was thinking of connecting it to that, but it would be fine to do it the way you described.

I'll post something IC tomorrow.
FrostyNSO
With a roll like that, I think you can make it work.
Mister Juan
Why do I have an "Ork Underground" feeling right now?
FrostyNSO
Good luck, white girl.
Mister Juan
Well, I guess Ludi will have to put her Meta Friendly face on wink.gif
Too bad Jacky isn't along
Shadow
Feel free to Fast Forward to the club for me.
Mister Juan
Just so we're on the same page; Ludi can do three ways, right?
FrostyNSO
upstream, downstream, or "north"

<or the fourth way>

"back"
Mister Juan
Yea... like that's going to happen wink.gif
Mister Juan
When do we get a new act? wink.gif
We're still in act II I believe
FrostyNSO
Prolly after you get to safety...why?
FrostyNSO
You're going to see passages along the way and other runoff ducts...is Ludi going to follow this downstream to the end if she doesn't see anything particularly interesting?
Mister Juan
Yea. I've never been trapped like that, and VERY hurt like that, but I take it that almost anyone in that situation would have one tought: get out.

So yea, she'll follow the stream, unless something grabs her attention.

She's also going to try to contact Hank, to see whats going on.
FrostyNSO
That's what I'd do =)
Mister Juan
A little stealth roll to hide while waiting for Hank wink.gif

Stealth

Hank's Perception to find Ludi

11 08 04 04 02
#D:5 TN:9 H#:11 S:1

Hank's Biotech roll minus complimentary dice from medkit because I don't have books for rules. TN= 8 (serious?) + 2 for cruddy conditions

19 05 03 03 02
#D:5 TN:10 H#:10 S:1
Mister Juan
So, since Hank succeeded, Ludi is down to a Medium wound only?
FrostyNSO
Yes.
FrostyNSO
Bah! Shitty GM. i fastforewarded too far with Shadow and Slacker and have to introduce this timeline mix-up. Terribly terribly sorry! I hope this doesn't mess up the experience too much.
Mister Juan
Ludi will go in... alone. She'll get her jacket on, and
[ Spoiler ]
. She'll also load everything she has collected so far in the investigation in her headware memory, and make a copy on her pocket computer, that she'll leave with Hank.
Slacker
No big deal about the timeline mixup Frosty. It was either this or have Shadow and I uninvolved at all for a long time after the first few posts.

Its already happened so there is no need to worry about it now. Lets just move on.

When he goes to Mr. Stone's house, Wormwood will be armed to bear.
[ Spoiler ]

Metagaming I know its not a trap of his enemy, but IC he has know way to know what to think.
FrostyNSO
Slacker - Stone agrees.

I'm going to wait for input from Shadow before we jump further, hopefully it isn't too long.

By the way:

1 Good Karma point to Wormwood <and> 1 Good Karma point to Gunther - for being troopers and still checking in and doing "future posts" despite my convoluted GMing and the inactivity inbetween.

<also> 3 Good Karma points to Ludmila for some great In-character posting before and since my return and keeping this thing rolling along.

Maybe I'm a bit generous with Karma, maybe not, but sheesh, these forum games take a long time =)

Mister Juan - Are you still getting into the Calling All Mercs campaign?
Mister Juan
Wow... I had totaly forgot about that one. I just got into yet another game and with this one starting up again.... I just don't want to start a game and drop out. So no, I'm going to bow out of it.
FrostyNSO
Damn, dude. Was looking forward to gaming with ya. Oh well, I can always NPC Hank smile.gif
Mister Juan
And thanks again for the karma: I just really love this game wink.gif

Edit: ya same here wink.gif I'm sure we'll cross paths
FrostyNSO
*trying to think up a good opening for Act III*

They all tie together if you follow the events of each act...in a cryptic sort of way smile.gif

Also, just a reminder for Slacker and Shadow not to miss their karma in case it falls behind in this thread with my jabbering.
Mister Juan
Before I forget.

Healing roll for the medium wound:
[ Spoiler ]
FrostyNSO
Nice Rollin'

Hank took care to make sure the wounds don't get infected at least smile.gif
Shadow
Gun is on his way.
