Well the good news is, it doesn't require a Lodge. Just Force x Minutes to make the preparation.

Minutes? Well, in that case, in game time it shouldn't disrupt Aria's "it'll still be Friday the 13th when you get there" timeline, then!

Sweet - it'll be worth the wait for the post!

Or we could post taking off into the dust, with the understanding that the alchemying is already done, and maybe cover it in a flashback.

Whatever everyone in Team Tech Fetch thinks is best!

[adamu]

They haven't met up with you yet, but Req will be there when they do!

Just a note on the LCZ: it's not just a barrens, it's walked off from the rest of London and guarded. There are also CFD riots going on up there...

Soooo ka.

Well, obviously there were no CFD riots mentioned in the (SR2) London book!!!

Hey all, I know I've been pushing harder than anyone to get straight out of underdark, and I know everyone that's spoken up lately has agreed that...but this is sounding like a friendly GM warning now...what say we go ahead and leave it to the clowns to show us an exit they recommend?

And once we know where that is, we can think a bit more constructively about where to ask eTher to meet us for the hand off...thoughts?

[adamu]

@Jack - that bodyguard flashback was very cool!

[Jack_Spade]

@Adamu
Thanks

@Aria
... the fuck?

Is Natasha still visible or has she vanished completely. My gun is filled with narcoject+DMSO capsule rounds. If there is any bit of her visible, I'll shoot.

[Aria]

Roll edge (won't reduce your edge), get a hit and you can see enough of her for a shot, I'll roll her dodge more to represent the fluctuations of the crowd than any kind of active defence!

[Jack_Spade]

Ok:
Edge: 5d6t5 0
Shame.
I probably can't expend edge to reroll my edge?

Ok, than it's just a charge through the crowd.

[Aria]

@Obi: just to clarify, the boy used a powder, not a spell...feel free to describe your shot, he isn't exactly combat proficient!  Much swearing is acceptable!

[adamu]

Yeah, much swearing I have indeed done, not only IC but here in my office!

Trying to think what rolls you might want.
Spike is after Natasha - I'll get you a track roll for him once I get home to my books - it adds up to a lot of dice for him and I want to get them all in!

If you want to make a Perception for Al, it's a base seven dice, or of course I'll do that when I get home as well.
Mainly looking for anywhere with more cover than "surrounded 360 in the open by a crowd of freak screening unknown irregular hostiles."

Calming Rachel down - all I got is RP on that one - we'll see if it's enough.

Per things mentioned in the IC, Al is on internal air, his shotgun is in his hand and loaded with APDS, and Spirit Claw and Killing Hands are both activated.

@Obi - power to you shooting the evil troll sorceror (disguised as a child), but also remember the warning from Goodnight - something about this accursed place having automated weapons targeting people that do violence...

[obidancer]

Oh, if the kid didn't cast a spell, I won't shoot him in the knee!
@Adamu, I don't recall that... but the Frenchman's memory is definitely not known to be the best!

We need to identify the caster though.

[adamu]

Heck, I don't even know if anything she told us was accurate. Definitely not second-guessing you!  Just a heads up on a possible threat.
And yeah agree we gotta spot the caster.

And, spell or not, kid or not, anyone that can put Solo down with a little powder....i wouldn't fault anyone for deeming that a kneecap-worthy threat!

[adamu]

Okay, Spike's tracking comes to 12 dice - naturally take off for any mods.
Tracking Natasha: 12d6t5 4

And the Perception test
Perception for any sort of cover to move into: 7d6t5 3

[obidancer]

Modified the post slightly to ready my action instead of shooting directly.

[adamu]

Frenchman is clearly a wise and merciful sout.

Hopefully the good karma will come back to you - we'll need it.

Not sure yet how much opposition we are up against in this scene, but I am getting more of a pucker factor than in the alley ambush, and I was pretty puckered then....

Hopefully we can generate the same winning teamwork on this one that saved us then!

[obidancer]

I'm on the one opponent who hurt us (a Kid!!)
Al is looking for our cover
ISaint making sure we don't lose our principles.
Jackhammer, it's on you to spot the spellslinger!

[saithor]

@ Tribal: Aria, what's your thoughts on me doing Alchemy and liquids and other objects that have to have a specific action done to them for the touch command to activate? I am just wondering, I don't particulary want to Command Trigger eveything, especially considering how much drain that adds.
