Gaming Stuff
So, Saturday was Game Day at our place. The new game for us is Shadowrun. Much fun was had by all.
The Cast:
Gerry - Troll Combat Mage (![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
satyr_mi)
Justin - DwarfRat Mouse Shaman (margaras)
Kary - Human Mage (lilacmoon5)
Maureen - Elf Mage (jdotmi)
Yes, ladies and gentlemen, we could be oh so royally screwed. The Troll is the tank, and, well, he's a Mage...
So, here's how it went down.
We each got calls one night from a Mr. Johnson. My character (Maureen) had worked for him before. His name is Bob. He's her main fixer, so it's all good. He promised it would be fun, of course she took him up on it.
The group all met at a warehouse to meet with Bob and get the assignment. Our mission, should we have chosen to accept it, was to go and pick up a guy and his gear from a warehouse controlled by the Land Sharks gang. The warehouse was functioning as the gang headquarters. It could be a very dangerous mission, if we chose the wrong timing for the job. We had 36 hours to complete the mission. Both the man and the gear had to be intact.
The target had once (decades ago) been in a rival gang. He was the last living member of that gang. They had captured him as a trophy. He was wired up with simsense gear and basically lived as a vegetable. He apparently had some information that was useful to someone, since we were being hired to extract him. The pay? 3k nuyen each. Well, 12k nuyen to be split amongst the survivors. Collateral damage was highly encouraged.
Yup. Fun to be had.
We wound up getting the Dwarf's truck put together (he needed a power cell and whatnot). The Dwarf and the Troll managed to put some armor plating on it. Well, okay, it was rusted bits of metal, but it worked. We then had a perfectly clean run and got the goods without issue! NOT!
Well, the run didn't suck. After a lot of planning, and re-planning, and scrapping of the planning, we finally just said "fuck it" and stormed the warehouse. We got lucky enough to get it done. I disintegrated one Shark with lightning, Kary helped me turn a cybered up Shark into a quivering mass of almost-dead flesh, and we killed two other gangers before the rest ran like girls. There were only 10 of the 60 there, so go us.
We did manage to steal the contents of a safe that they had in the same office they were holding our target. Got some old porn simsense vids and drugs. Um. Whee? On our way out, we doused the place with gas and ignited it. Thanks to a Physical Mask spell, nobody could really tell what our escape vehicle looked like, so it's all good.
All told, we got out 12k nuyen for the run (split three ways) and another 8k nuyen for the drugs.
Oh, and apparently my character is great with finding out information via computers. (Computer Use 1, Chat Rooms 1)
Right. Rolled snake eyes on that entire Rival Gang Name inquiry.
