@TB/Tech Fetch:

Can I have a survival roll please...teamwork is possible so you don't all need to roll.  Everybody does need to make a fatigue test though, it's hard work wading through this crap!

How are you approaching Mayday Station?

@TB/Escort:

No need for survival rolls for you  :) ...but I do need to know if you are doing anything special before you get to the boat or just rocking up...?  If somebody wants to describe the scene before I can it's a Samuvani Otter utility boat [H4, Sp3, Ac2, B12, A6, Pi2, Sn2, St8] waiting in the mouth of the creek, one dimly seen pilot.  Terrain is as per the Google maps link for the sake of my sanity (and yours?!?).  It's dark, drizzling and wet underfoot...oh, and the railway you can see is long disused!

So I shared my thoughts on possible approaches in the IC - but that's just getting a conversation started - interested in everyone's thoughts.

I'll be able to do rules and dice and stuff at home this evening.

Al's base pool for survival is seven dice - peeking at sheets, I am pretty sure that's the highest, so I'll roll it (along with fatigue) tonight when I'm home with books and so on, adding in any bonus dice from anyone besides Jack that wants to contribute to a teamwork test.

By the way (since I've been peeking at sheets), I think the link at the head of this thread only goes to Al's physical description.
Full stats are on OP if anyone needs to see it.

@Tech Fetch:

Fatigue is a 'harsh environment' but I'll only ask for one roll on the way there... 4S, so sadly Jack, you're on a point of stun... likely to require 2 on the way back, unless you can find an alternative route...

Bah, I'm sure we'll find a nice friendly bar at mayday, where we can rest for an hour... ::)

Nope, sorry, I can't even write that with a straight face  ;D

@Aria @CoP

As noted earlier, Al is already on internal air.

Granted, Al's move to pin her "satchet hand" to the counter in my last IC was fluff that I didn't roll dice for, but hopefully that post will preclude any surprise if she is making some sort of "powder in the face" move. Naturally Al will try to prevent it...

Do I need initiative or anything?
Some sort of unarmed called shot to disarm or something?
Let me know - again, I'll roll when I get home to the books.

@Jack - nice work!

We have Bane pronounced on us now (!?!?!?), and that doesn't sound good, but you've got Natasha back.
If that let's us regroup, we'll be in a vastly better position to survive until the arrival of Requiem and some Laesal-hating clowns.

Cog is on his dirt bike and is just confirming the craft is the right one with nimbus. he doesn't want to go spooking a smuggler!
can cog see any AR icons for the craft?
Matrix perception if needed:
 matrix perception (8d6.hits(5)=3) DP limit is 3
Cog has 3 noise reduction as well (2 from receiver dongle and 1 from datajack)

Reading and re-reading the IC, I am wondering now if the old woman (and the troll) weren't just offering us the closed sachets...if so I can just move on with the IC.

But not sure, and don't want to weasel out of some nasty attack...so just in case...

(I still can't figure out how to do initiative on Orokos)
Initiative 2d6+11=2 + 5 + 11 = 18

Unarmed combat (subduing)
skill + att = 9 dice
Grabbing crone's wrist: 9d6t5 1

One hit - nice.
Well, if it comes to this, and she gets no hits on unarmed, and her physical limit is 3 or less, then she is subdued. Not impossible, I guess, but definitely also some humiliation potential here!!
If somehow successful, I see it as just grabbing her wrist and stopping her throwing/blowing the thing at me.
Hopefully she was just offering it to me.

Let me know either way and I can roll with the IC.

Both were just offering, the troll tossed it down at Isaint's feet but I suspect it will get trodden into the mud by the disgruntled crowd that are gathering with hostile intent!

Sweet - I don't have to fail to subdue some ancient crone!

Ok, I have to admit: I have no idea what's in that paper sachet. Flower seeds? ???

If it's from those freaks, it can't be anything good.

But good or bad, just not for Al!

Nobody is going to hurt you (much) while in Nightside. They will chant 'bane' and throw refuse at you... Should be pretty unsettling... Feel free to IC dragging yoursleves through Nightside and meeting up with the murder clowns and I will pick up from there next week!

I should also point out that the crowd will try to hinder you leaving, and needless to say nobody is going to help you so no more shopping trips here...

For those of you who don't know, I live in the states. I've never been outside of them. In two days I catch a plane for France where I hope to avoid internet activity for two weeks. Until a few days ago I hadn't planned on going, but due to recent events, plans have changed. So unfortunately I will be unavailable to post for that time. Sorry to do that to two games. I'm going to curse the headache of catching up when I get back, but I think it's the best thing to do.

But really, someone send me a private message if it's important. I don't want to miss a TPK or anything.

@pistolgrip
Hey, congratulations. Have a good trip and enjoy the experience. We'll try to bring you up to speed once more when you are back  ;)

@Aria
Ok. There's only the question what happened to Solo's face through the powder.
