Well, you're sorta convincing me, especially since you're the GM, imbued with great and true knowledge of the universe!

Now eTher's got to convince Al.
Well she's made a start...the Voice in your heads gives you a clearer insight into her feelings/mood/mind (whatever) than words might...then again she's a dragon, so perhaps she can manipulate her mental voice...and Isaint certainly isn't likely to be minded to trust a dragon.   She survived a rocket attack and demonstrated what she could do to one of those armoured troopers, do you want to piss her off?  Then again, can she survive you lot?!? ;D

If the advise is sound it doesn't matter where it comes from. Isaint is primarily interested in keeping William safe. Getting to a more defensible position is definitely part of his agenda  ;)

Man, I don't want to fight her. Yeah, half of Al thinks Silk's a sell-out, but the worst he thinks of eTher is that she's impotent and incompetent.
She wants to stick with us, no worries.

And whether we wait around or take off, first step either way is into the building...

I think it might be 'one of those weeks' again so to keep you all going (if you want to post IC):

CoP: feel free to 'explore' the services. You have about a minute before they come in!

TB: border: you can head back home (to a modest heroes welcome) or watch the rather one sided fight

Sub: it's gone quiet here but there is at least one more boarding party somewhere...plus Fox has matrix shenanigans to do...

@Jack - here's those teamwork dice you asked for on your tactics roll.

Teamwork on Isaint's tactics thing: 5d6t5 2

Hope that helps.

@Aria - eTher said she wanted to stick with William - should we assume she went with him and Jackhammer into the freezer?

Payday post brought forward with this month's update.

@Tribal Beats

Have edited this whole post in line with corrections from Aria - basic award still the same, though.

August karma

9 players have made a total of 55 IC posts.

So that is 3 karma and Y6,000 each.

Will apply the remainder of 1 post to the September total.

I'll be posting future-month rewards here, and Aria is going to link this to page one of the OOC.

September Payday

Again 3 karma and Y6,000 for each person.

And again there is a remainder that I'll apply to next month.

October Payday

Everyone still in the game gets 2 karma and Y4,000.

November Payday

Everyone that made any IC posts in November gets 2 karma and Y4,000.

Teamwork SUT (Al): 2d6t5 1[2d6t5=1, 5]

Great. Just one more and we'll enjoy +3 to our attack tests. ;D

I'm busy, but not too busy to tell you how you're doing it wrong.

@CoP
Yeah, Al's still got all the stuff he used to prep the exit breach back at the hotel.

Those rules will take me half an hour to sift through again, so I'll just rely on my calculations from that scene (quoted below) - same effect - one meter breach if it's a meter of structural materal - since I'm pretty sure it's not, the hole should be easily big enough for us to run right through.

Also just buy successes on Industrial Mechanic to be sure about the spot being an exterior wall, with nothing load-bearing that will be affected.

And since our side controls the airwaves right now, I'll use a radio detonator.


Next - damn, those breaching charge rules are making my head hurt.
Without bothering people with all the math, I am pretty sure that if Al places three meters of high-yield det cord on the floor using demolitions skill, and I just buy successes (which would be 2 based on 9 dice), then it will be more than enough to punch a one meter hole in the floor even if it is a meter-thick of structural material and the barrier gets a very good roll on its soak.
The charge should (by my reading of the vague rules) be directional

@pistolgrip

Thanks, I appreciate the effort  ;D
Teamwork SUT reroll: 2d6t5 1 [2d6t5=3, 5]

And once again, Teamwork proves to be invaluable. Gentleman, enjoy your +3 dice for your opening salvo.

And if you lot can do it, expect them to do so too (must go and reread R&G :P)

Of course. I expect nothing less. You can even try to counter my maneuver by getting more hits on your roll, to turn it into a malus. (Same of course for us) ;)

@CoP: I did have a better IC post for you but the damn computer ate it  >:(  ah well, this will have to do...

The majority of the foe are still in the front, but there is evidence that there are snipers watching the back, there's even a sniper and spotter where Isaint set up originally.  They appear to be unaware of the incoming Knights, perhaps they think you hacked their comms...you can probably discount those outside after the initial breech...but yes, that is going to happen before the cavalry arrives to save your bacon (or arrest you perhaps, or just shoot you as loose ends, who knows with these corp types?!?)

@Jack- what happened to that bundle of flash bangs you were working on? Where is that right now?

And the car you jacked - is that right out the back past the kitchen where William is hidden?

Just trying to get on the same page, thin out that fog of war as best I can before we enter a storm of electronic dice rolling!!!
