I think James still has a Rating 4 commlink from leaving Ares, but I don't know if he has a Rating 1 burner with him. If not, he'll want one of those. Similarly, I don't know if James has much of his walking around ¥ with him, but I imagine that the bulk of it is with Stevens. If he doesn't have much cash, he'll ask for some, and a pair of credsticks for Illeana and himself.
Let's see what James knows about the laws in Frankfurt.
I'm hoping to supplement that knowledge with a Computer search afterward. Actually, I'm going to do the Search first, and then Teamwork the Knowledge roll. Let me know if you want this done differently.
For the computer Search, James has: LOG (4) + Computer (4) = 8 dice.
Computer Search: Laws in Frankfurt:
8d6t5 3For Laws, James has: LOG (4) + Law (2) + Teamwork Roll (3) = 9 dice
Law knowledge:
9d6t5 4That should get me the basics. I'm curious as to whether or not gun laws and cyberware/bioware laws are mostly similar in Frankfurt as the UCAS. If the tables are relatively the same, James would want a legal firearm, say the Predator V with SnS, and licenses to match. If guns are largely illegal, he'll carry the Taser in polite company.
In preparation for the job, James is going to use some of his Knowledge Karma to buy Area Knowledge: Frankfurt (2). Does he have the time for that purchase? I don't have any questions on Frankfurt right now, so I'll forgo any rolls.
What is the nationality for Illeana's Lara SIN?
I think James will opt for: Arthur VanBrandt, an Aztechnology Corporate citizen employed with Hawker-Siddeley, an Aztech subsidiary located in England.
From examining the file on Senio, does James have any solid leads to start off with? Housing, associates, the like?
