The shootout in front of the warehouse still rages as Ronin swiftly dispatch the SKS guard with a bullet to the head. Kareem is under fire but he's pulling out of his duffel bag something that should tip the balance in his favor; a good ol' AK-47, the third world's solution to everything.
Meanwhile, inside the warehouse, Ghost is dancing around bullets. Avoiding fire from a guard below, she rolls on the roof, jumps headfirst toward the staircase, flips in midair, catch the door's handle and opens it simultaneously as she is landing in a firing position. But what she sees inside the control room is surely not what she was expecting.
There is the elderly African gentleman that was spotted earlier by Luddite, but now he looks like a wildman. His eyes are blood-soaked and feverish. He screams incoherently and waves a huge revolver. His shirt is torn in two places, as if he's just been in a brawl. In the corner of the room, Ghostfox locates Gournay. He looks shaken, almost in shock. He is in a worse shape than the African.
But there is no time for thinking, just for acting. Before the African can target Ghost, she fires at him and catches him in the shoulder. The demented man staggers forward but catches himself before falling and levels his revolver with Ghost's chest. But as this drama unfold, Gournay's expression has turned from shock to anger. As the elderly African's attention is on Fox, Gournay surges forward toward the madman and clubs him with a small but sturdy lamp. The African lumps to the floor and mumbles incoherently. Gournay shouts at him and seems about to club him some more.

OOC:
Ronin shoots twice at SKS soldier.
Range -2, guard has 1/2 cover
Atk VS def 15
20
You spend an AD and the guard is dead. I presume you'll spend your last 1/2 action to stand up from your prone position.
PS: Hey, this AD code works!
PS2: When Ken shot at the SKS guard in round 1, I forgot to add the laser sight bonus.
---------------------------------------------------
1-The rear soldier who rushed toward the front moves 30' toward the stunned revolver guard. He then has a LOS with Kim and Kareem. He shoots once toward Kareem.
He's using an Ak-47, fires a wide burst.
Atk VS def 14
4 + 3
2-The revolver guard is still stunned.
3-SKS is now dead.
4-The guard who had spotted Fox is out of sight.
Fox listen check: 14 + 1 (minus unspecified distance penalty and -2 for ambient noise); no information.
------------------------------------------------------
First of all, as soon as Ghost comes near the edge of the roof, the guard 4 shoots at her in a readied action;
Spot VS Hide check (If failed, Ghost won't have spotted the guard just before the atk and she'll lose her dex bonus)
14 + 3 (-6 for distance); 11
9 + 1; 10
Atk VS def 14 (he uses another SKS)

-----------------------------------------
Ghost jumps down from the roof to the staircase and opens the door. Hmm, so how long does it takes to do all that?
Ad hoc ruling;
Tumble DC 15.
If successful it only takes 1/2 action to do all this in a Jackie Chan fashion, leaving 1/2 action to, I presume, shoot the madman inside.
If failed, you are clumsier and it takes 1/2 to move to the door and 1/2 to open it.
Tumble 16 + 7
Ghost tumbles down the roof and open the door; She sees two men inside.
The elderly African gentleman looks totally wild! His eyes are blood streaked and feverish. He points a huge magnum revolver to her head and...
Ghost Atk first VS def 11
16 + 6
Dmg 8, not stunned
Gournay is in the corner of the room. He looks horrified and in shock. As Ghost attracts the African's attention, he rushes toward him and tries to club him with a small but sturdy lamp. He displays remarkable vigor for a man of his age.
Atk VS def 11 (it's a charge)
8 + 5
Dmg 8, now he's stunned. And hurt pretty badly to boot. Gournay seems intent on finishing him.

Kareem fishes out his Ak-47.

Kim... Well now that I think of it, I don't know what Kim does!

Luddite and Lana have now raced 240' toward the closest usable boats. This would be the boats on the west piers but to the north of the current shootout.
Your best bet is likely to be a small fishing boat only attended by a middle-aged man and his son. Considering the area you are in, this is as easy as it's gonna get.
If you spend an AD you'll find a lightly attended speedboat (1 goon and 1 passenger).
If you spend two AD you'll find an unattended speedboat.
Have you ever wondered why superspies often find the perfect means of transportation lying around when they most need it? It's because they spend ADs on it!]
