Oh, and go ahead an give me a rundown on what you guys want to do if you want.

Well, Ludi is simply going to wait in the van. She's going to extend the folding stock of her Ingram and keep it close... in case. She'll also positioned herself close to the door. If someone other than one of the three boys comes out the front door, she'll open suppresive fire (sound suppressor on)

It's pretty sad, but my mindset had already switched over to the SR4 rules system, so it took me a moment to remember just how to roll SR4 initiative. With running both an online SR4 game and a tabletop one, along with playing in another SR4 forum game, I was all fixated on getting 'successes'. LOL.

Anyways, I got a 15 initiative.

Depending on if Gun has already starting fighting with the guy, my actions will be different.

If he hasn't started fighting, I'll try defaulting to Charisma to Interrogate/Intimidate the target. Before any modifiers I rolled 14 on the Open Test (possible modifiers I noticed: -4 from defaulting, +1 for my Charisma being 5, +2 from aggressors out numbering him, +1 for visible weapon because I would have pulled out my pistol, +2 for target's death imminent because I'll be threatening shooting him dead).

If fighting has already broken out, I'll try to keep the gun away from the target (assuming he hasn't gotten it yet).

If fighting has started and he's gotten his pistol, I'll move in to attack him with my shock gloves.
Unarmed Combat/Fists

If he goes for his gun I will quick draw a knife and toss it at him. Otherwise I am going to try and intimidate him into sitting down.

Thanks for the complimant on the post. I am modelling gun a little after Chilli Palmer from 'Get Shorty'. Best character Travolta ever did.

Makes me think I should see that movie again.

Anyways, just thought I'd warn you all that (for some reason) I wrote, in my post, Ludi's radio speech in orange. Just to distinguish it from the rest. I'm not forcing anyone to duplicate this "approach". I just noticed it on a lot of other threads and found the idea good.

After I finish helping Hank get in the back door, I'll do a sweep of the rest of the house. Leaving Hank in the main room to backup Ludi while still being able to watch the back door.

I know that IC post didn't really amount to anything... I'm just trying to show how Ludmila is toying with Lars. If the man did kill two women because of some intense delusion, he probably has something for/agaisnt women in general.

Also, I just felt like writing something

Work has been very busy. Next expected post will be tomorrow...hopefully.

Just as a side note, in case it might speed things up for ya, Frosty: if Hank does find a bathub, Ludmila will have Wormwood help her in bringing Lars to it... and then, she'll start dunking the guy's head in it to expediate the whole interrogation thing... anyways... I'm sure you see where I'm going with this.

As of your busy state: IT IS NO EXCUSE! YOU LAZY BUM!
I'm kidding mate

Another shitty-er...busy day. Gonna be another before I get on to post. I am really really sorry.

No problemo muchacho!
Just can't wait to see what Lars has to say.

As I said before, once in the bathroom, Ludmila will start her rounds of question again and again, putting Lars' head underwater and keeping it there for some time between each questionning.

Which is why she needs Gun's help

Here's a little roll

Interrogation / Verbal


Once she's satisfied he's telling the truth (as in: he answered the same thing to the same question over and over), she'll let him breath for some time, so she can speak with her teammates.

I took some liberty in my last post... I hope I didn't step on anyone's toes...

Heh, all my NPC's are assholes. Even the dead model ones.

So, uh, now what?

I guess all there is left is for the team to set up a meet with Stone, give him all the info and get paid.

Ludmila might have a job for the boys: whack Alec.

Not whacking Stone eh?

Quite honestly, Ludmila wouldn't hesitate for a second... but it would be very bad for her street rep. You know... popping a few in an employer is never good.

Plus, now she's probably getting a rep as a stone cold killer I mean, everywhere she goes, she leaves corpses

<------

Huh?

In any case, do you guys need anything from me right now? So far you seem to be cruising along alright.

I'd like pizza.

Goddamn that sounds good right now =) Stupid job and me having to be here...

In case someone wonders:

Da vai (phonetically written russian) : means Let's do it.

Yebat'-Kopat' : basically means "Damn it".

I'm really sorry that I havn't been able to devote the attention to this that it deserves. We are in a very busy time at work and I havn't had a lot of keyboard time lately.

Well, now that I have time to sit down and try this, I find that I am unable to get my head into it at the moment. I feel I owe a slight explanation though, so... There's something in my personal life that has been running in my head non-stop for the past week and a half (don't worry, not a bad thing), so there's something I gotta do, and until then I just don't think I'll be able to sit down and do a decent post.

But don't worry, hopefully tomorrow or some day this week it will all be taken care of.

Allllll cool mate.
As much as we'd like to live on this board, we all have to deal with life (sometimes ).

And believe me, I know how you feel about not being able to get your head into it at the moment: we all have those moments.

Do what you gotta do mate

Stay frosty (oh, the pun!)

Hehehe
I knew someone was going to say it

*cough cough*

Still here/

My computer caught fire and I've been away from work...will try to get something done this week.

Whoa...your computer caught fire? Had you overclocked too much or something?

No clue, need to take it to the computer-fixing people.

Probably a firewall problem.


Ok.... I'll go and hide somewhere.

So what's the final plan here?

Ill do the talking, Ludy does the sniping, Hank the driving, and Worm is back up.

Yep, that seems to be the plan. I'm going to take a quick look around the place, tell me if I need to make any rolls.

Perception would be cool.

Perception: 11 10 03 02 01

Ludmila is aiming for the "big guy with the longcoat". Since her skill isn't all that high, per canon, she can only get a +2 from aiming.

Well guys, this could be it

Jaxques will try staying as alert as possible as he backs Gun up.

Stealth(Alertness) Roll if needed:

Gun seems like a paranoid guy so I wanna wait to see what he plans on doing here. The "associates" are a good 100m from the crane where ludi is now and where hank is parked.

<----- Thread... must.... not.....die

Concerning the "smg coverage", I was running some numbers in my head... and I think that things aren't looking any good if the shooting starts.

- 100 = extreme range = TN 9
- Probably in minimal light (eyes with low light vision) = +4 = TN 13
- BF (gun is only BF or FA) = +3 = TN 16
- Recoil compensation = -3 = TN 13
- Smartlink II = -2 = TN 11
- Aiming = -2 = TN 9
So, TN should be around 9

Well well well... Those guys better not start any trouble.... because over that kind of distance, Ludmilla couldn't shoot an elephant.

Frosty; how about that "suppressive fire" rule in the CC? You like it?

I think it's crap, but I'll allow it...

Meh; if you don't like it, then lets not use it

Sorry for the delay.

Gun only walkked about a quarter of the way to the car. They are going to need to come closer if they want to do the exchange.

The guy openly carrying a street howitzer doesn't bode well for the peacefull conclusion of this meeting.

Give the word and it'll be raining bullets

I think Hank is in the van...did u mean wormwood?

I guess so. I thought Hank was with me.

No matter. Sorry for the delay, Flu again.

I did change him from telling Hank to get the money to telling Jacque to.

I just wanted the money to get a head start on getting back to the van whilst I cover your posterior.

Oh yeah, wasn't even thinking about that when I posted at first. Jacques is paranoid though so although I edited my post a little bit, I kept the part about turning up his hearing amplification.
