"You're dead wormboys!" shrieks Lunchmeat when cyberarms goes down. Her voice is cracked and her eyes are wide with insane rage. "You're all chop suey, you hear me!" Planting her feet hard in the doorway and gripping her machine pistol with both hands she yanks its barrel left and right as she...

10P damage base is pretty standard, same as an AK (the gun that messed up Lum). I mean, Faust's two 7P damage guns did more damage that last round than the drone did so I think it all balances out pretty well. What makes the Monsoon impressive is its mammoth ammo capacity. The main downside is...

Faust and Lum's drone are cleaning up.

Just as pig mask is disappearing beneath the fire of Lum's drone, Faust is already turning his guns on the vatjob making her way toward the runners. Faust's Crusaders are several inches too high thanks to recoil and he spends half a second recovering before opening up with a controlled shot from...

Oh sweet Jesus.

Rubberneck, dropping your previous guns is a free action. Readying the grenade launcher is a simple action. Popping out a frag grenade (removing a clip) is another simple action. That's all the actions you have. Loading a new grenade (inserting a clip) would be another simple action. Given how...

Based on how Coyote is rolling for you guys so far don't be surprised if you get a critical glitch and give Herald a concussion with the grenade.

Death Otter - The Matrix, NYNet, NYS Transit Train 213 Host The patrol IC is wide-eyed when he sees the crack sprite materialize. He takes a step back. Resonance 6 + Compiling 5 + Edge 3 (2 + 1) [exploding 6s] = 5 successes Link The sprite rolls 6 dice and scores 1 success Resonance 6 +...

Shayuri, what level Crack sprite are you compiling?

Herald easily scoops up the grenade and tosses it out the window of the door between cars three and four. The grenade pops against the exterior wall of car four and drops out of sight beneath the train, likely to explode in the tunnel behind it. Using a simple action to pick the grenade up and...

Yeah, the Coyote roller absolutely hates you guys.

Informative windows cloud the edges of Lum's vision. This one shows an ammo count. That one is displaying rangefinder data. He only has to think about one of them for it to enlarge and fill his field of view - in the next moment he's seeing from the point of view of his Predator's smartgun...

Actually, I like this. Official ruling: When a spirit or sprite arrives if it has a higher initiative score than its summoner it will use Delay Action to take its pass immediately after its summoner's until it has received orders. Note that this means it will take a -1 penalty to any of its...

Faust rises out of cover in time to spot the flash of a pig mask in a window three cars down. He lets off a quick pop pop pop with each gun. More plastic exploding. It's a damn tough shot, firing through three windows, but one of the bullets knocks the man out of view - the others ricochet off...

Edited my last post to add a registered sprite example for comparison.

Compiling Pass One Death Otter - 27: Attempts to spoof command Death Otter's initiative reduced by 10 Pass Two Death Otter - 17: Uses complex action to compile sprite Sprite - (has initiative score of [roll result - 10] but acts on Otter's initiative the pass it's summoned): Has not been...

Compiling a sprite is a complex action (pg 250). So you'd use a complex action to compile the sprite at which point it would appear and immediately roll initiative. Its initiative is given a -10 for each pass that has already occurred (so if you compile a spirit in the next pass it will get a...

I've adjusted the train map so that distances are listed in meters.

Initiative: Round One, Pass One Death Otter - 27 link Faust - 25 link Lum's MCT-Nissan Roto-Drone - 21 link Patrol IC - 18 Lum the Mad - 16 link Lunchmeat - 16 Balaclava - 14 Herald - 11 link Cyberarms - 11 Pig mask - 9 Death Otter - The Matrix, NYNet, NYS Transit Train 213 Host Death Otter...

For someone shooting from a lit area into a totally dark area I'd probably split the difference and give them dim light penalties (-3, pg 175). I'd give partial light penalties (-1) to someone shooting from the dark into the light (it's significantly easier, yes, but it will be tricky without...
