The First Forumised SLA Industries BPN

[Joose]

I'll port again, through the gap into whatever space I can see on t'other side.

[Grimmie]

There were some lift doors with a slight gap which the kid seemed to have gone through.
Deject looked through the gap with his AV stalk and sees a crumbling lift shaft with a damaged lift car at the bottom. There looks like there's a gap between the top of the door and the top of the lift car.
Toast ports down onto the top of the lift car and looks through the gap into the basement below.
Grimmie pulls the top doors apart, setting off a concealed shotgun trap and copping a round in the chest.
Mephit charges into the shaft and jumps down to where Toats is.
Their combined weight causes the lift car to drop a foot, which pulls the cables, in turn pulling down the machinery balanced at the top.

Red line = Me triggering mangler.
Big thing falling at the top = Falling machinery
Gap = Space between dodgy lift car and basement door

Correct?

[The Shutting Downs]

You forgot the dreads Grimmie

Is there an access hatch into the battered lift?

[Grimmie]

I think the battered lift is about to be a squashed lift along with yourselves if you don't either teleport the hell away, or break through that door ASAP.

[Joose]

if you don't either teleport the hell away

I'll port again, through the gap into whatever space I can see on t'other side.

Im sorted

[deject]

It is 50m up DP said so you could possibly try climbing back up TSDs. Even if you get into the car below, there's a risk that will get crushed too.

Also, I think that the gap is between the top of the car you're on and the top of the elevator doors.

[The Shutting Downs]

OK, then down to the next set of lift doors and a strength test;

I'm going to only pull one side of the doors open, and use it as cover from any booby traps if possible...

10+2+12 = 24

[Joose]

Also, I think that the gap is between the top of the car you're on and the top of the elevator doors.

Nay:

Toast...looks through the gap into the basement below

[Dog Pants]

The elevator car is about two feet lower than it would be if it was at basement level, leaving two foot of doorway exposed. The bottom doors are already open, so Joose can port straight through into the basement. The top of the lift car is only a couple of meters below the floor level of the ground floor (where Dirk, Grimmie and Deject are), so Mephit could feasibly pull himself back up there, but the gap to the basement is within easier reach. The falling machinery is 50m up, so will take a couple of seconds to reach the bottom.

[Grimmie]

First attempt at a 3D SLA map, and not far off

[Grimmie]

Grimmie slowly sits up and puts himself against a wall.

Shit, you have no idea how glad I am that I upgraded from blocker.
Dirky boy, a little help over here?

I could do with a jarfull of hit points please, shaken, not stirred.

And assuming that Mephit doesn't get squished..

In hindsight, we do appear to be rushing into this a little quickly, but at least the new boys are leading the charge, huh?

[TezzRexx]

Tezz: You reckon the barman is probably your best friend in the bar at the moment, but he's not going to be able to help much against the Mama's Boys. The leader of this sub-gang is probably your best bet, but from what you know you'd better tread carefully as these guys are arrogant and possibly hostile.

Okkaaaaaay, could I get the Barman to hook me up with the leader of the subgang and how could I convince them to help us?

Hmmm.. Well, thanks for the advice pal, could ya point me in the direction of the top-dawg around here?

it is a southern drawl btw

[deject]

I''m totally waiting for Spindle to get shot in the face.

Yeah If you could make with the healings Roman, I'd appreciate it.

[The Shutting Downs]

Making for the gap to the basement then, and pronto...

[Dog Pants]

TSD: Gymnastics roll please

Tezz:

Well that'd be Tengu, the tall skinny guy there with the stripes down his jumpsuit. If you want to talk to him though you'd better impress him with money or hardware. That or the assurance that you can kill everybody in the room before they kill you. Me excluded of course, I never kill customers.

[The Shutting Downs]

Erk, I don't have that skill...

9+4 = 13

Ah well, I do have another character ready to go after Mephit gets pancaked...

[Dog Pants]

-3 for being unskilled. You still manage to get partially out of the way though. Damn, now I have to go looking for crushing rules...

... Which is that you take 1-5 hits of 8 DAM 4 AD, minus half your PV. Since I rolled 3 hits I'll split them between locations, one head, one left arm, one torso. You're on UV so no PHYS rolls required, but you need to make a STR -10 roll to get out from under the wreckage.

Phew, that was confusing.

[The Shutting Downs]

PV 7 so is that -3 or -4?

So thats will either be 5 damage to each location, or

As for unpinning myself, thats 7+5+12-10=14

Double tap the kick start (2 doses) and let my armour heal a bit...

[Dog Pants]

Sorry, I meant to be more specific. Armour is rounded up so it's -4. That means you take 4 DAM 4 AD each to your head, arm, and torso. You then drag yourself out from under the metal.

[deject]

Ouch. So as far as getting down there, are the rest of us going to need to find another way down?
