Probably not worth getting too fancy. I know missions are pretty strict on how much money gets given out.

The few that I've read had most pay-outs as as something like "8000 plus 500 per net hit on a negotiate test, to a maximum of 10 000" although I recall one that that more along the lines of "The Johnson will offer 6000 and will buy any paydata or salvage at double standard rates, or if the team negotiates will offer 6000 + 500 per net hit up to 8000, but will only pay standard rates for paydata or salvage."  So they almost always allow for that negotiate roll --but if we don't have the skills, well, we get what we get.

Cool as cool. Maybe 3 hits will get us something :)

I suck at GMING though... i dont have the patience. Plus to be honest after I read through the playbook it didnt feel like cheating... Im sorry guys. On the bright side by proxy you have helped like 4 of my friends who wanted to GM a shadowrun game.

Sorry about that, I had a bit go crazy out here.  Had two family members die in the last week.  Let's get back to the action.

Dang it, I knew I should have kept the winch on my car.

Between Vexboy, Kereina, and Marcus we've got a combined Strength score of 4+3+5=12, and a Body score of 4+5+4=13, for a total combined lifting power of 25. That's probably enough to wrangle the container, but Marcus will definitely be inquiring about a winch for his ride and he'll hit all of you up for a mechanic contact since Dr. Tate probably won't be much use there. I'll look up availability tomorrow morning, as I think that's something that should be easy enough to get a hold of.

He'll also suggest taking two vehicles; his own as an off-road outrider with room for up to two more, and something large enough to transport the container and the rest of the team.

Does Sid mention anything about where in the CZ this thing is located? Let me know if you want a roll on area knowledge or something like that. Marcus will be contacting Dr. Tate if and when he finds out what kind of chemicals or toxic materials we're dealing with unless someone on the team already has such knowledge.

Sid did hand us an address, we just need to know a bit more about it.

Sorry that Alf doesn't have magic that will help much, but could do a strength 7 body six guardian spirit, if that helps with carrying, and could cast an increase body spell on someone to help with carrying capacity.

Getting a bit more of a feel for the size of this thing would be helpful, but if Sid doesn't know then maybe we need to plan on some up front scouting before we get too locked into one plan.
