Oh, I assumed I was the first with Ini 31
Combat Sense gives me a Perception test not to be surprised:
Perception(Visual):
18d6t5 6[18d6t5=5, 4, 6, 3, 4, 1, 2, 1, 5, 2, 2, 4, 6, 4, 6, 6, 2, 2]
Surprise Test to react on my full Ini:
REA+INT(3) +3 if alerted somehow
Surprise Test:
19d6t5 4 [19d6t5=2, 3, 3, 1, 5, 5, 4, 4, 2, 2, 2, 1, 3, 5, 1, 2,
6, 1, 4]
Barely made it.
If necessary I'll take Full Defense:
REA 9 + INT 7 + Combat Sense 1 (+ WIL 5)
Dodge:
22d6t5 10[22d6t5=4, 5, 6, 5, 1, 5, 5, 6, 5, 1, 1, 3, 2, 3, 4, 4, 3,
6, 5, 1, 5, 3]
So either 7 or 10 successes to avoid the sniper fire.
