Are we all ready to do this? I'm ready right now, so when you guys are in place, tell Dirk to send me up.

Did I also mention that I charged my Deathsuit before we entered the building?

I normally assume you have it charged while on a BPN.

Hurrah!

I';; also bring to bear on the other elevator, utilising any cover there may be. Is there anything showing up on my motion sensor? I've not transferred my character sheet from old PC to new yet so I can't remember the specification sof it.

Only the other squad members. Motion trackers work off pressure changes, and the sealed fire door between you and the office would block any signal.

Eraser unslings the mangler and waits for the signal


So we have Eraser and Brainrot in the stairwell, Deject in the lift whilst Dirk, Grimie and Cutter (who I guess to be on autopilot) covering the other moving lifts...

Just so we all have an idea of whats happening

OK then, as soon as the lift starts moving I'll relay that to Eraser & Brainrot.
I'm on my way up, get ready!
And as soon as the doors start to open, I'll take a look with the A/V Stalk.

Across the office you can see two more DN like the three you just took out. They're in one of the elevators that was moving a minute ago. A third DN is running towards them from the direction of the other moving elevator. One of the pair in the elevator is swinging his rifle to bear on your elevator.

As I'm getting ready for work, I'll post the action now if I may, as it'll be the same whatever...

Kick the door open as soon as the word is given

Strength test = 6,6,+13=25

Spray and pray with the Mangler - 3 shot burst

rifle = 9,4,+2 = 15
Autosupport = 9,4 -3= 10 so nothing hit

then ducking into cover =

Acrobatic = 9,10,+2 = 21

So thats 1,2 and 3

You'll still hit one target if you fail your auto/support roll. Assuming you hit with your rifle roll after modifiers. I'll work those out once (if) we go into bullet time though.

Yeah I'll give the word to go and hope he doesn't open fire on me.

As soon as you give the word, Eraser smashes the door off its hinges. Both DarkNight turn their attention to him, and even the one still running for the elevator slows a little as he glances over.

The guys in the elevator are about 50m from the stairs and 80m from Deject.

Re: the elevator that the DN doods are in, am I in a position to open the door to the lift shaft and shoot up through the floor at them?

I'll drop down to one side of the elevator and bring to bear on one of the guys in the elevator. I'll have my gun on single fire and take aim for two rounds for the head.

You can be. You didn't say exactly where you were, so I'll presume somewhere equidistant. You'll have to get there first though, which would be say 40m away with various office furniture inbetween you and it.

I am so confused as to who is what and where right now. Any chance of some sort of sketchy map?

Not with the resources I have available. Remind me and I can do it tonight.

Both floors are pretty much the same, barring the exact layout of the partition walls. They're 100m square and open apart for the elevator shafts, stairwell, and a couple of offices in the corners. The stairwell is enclosed and occupies the centre of the office. The elevators are set towards the corners of the building, about 20m in from the edges. The stairs and the elevators form the pattern of a number five on a die.

In the elevators are:
Deject (7th floor)
Dirk's camera (249th floor)
Nothing (8th floor, going up)
Two DN guys (7th floor)

The third DN guy is running from the empty elevator (which is now going up) to the one with his buddies in.

Eraser and Brainrot are bursting in through the stairwell, Dirk is heading for the elevator shaft underneath the DN guys on the 6th, everyone else is on 6th contemplating their navels.
