I will take a look and see if there are any weapons visible.

If I was Grimmie I'd be drawing a picture of the three of you peering round a corner, one head on top of the other.
They're armed with crude improvised weapons, one has a piece of metal bar with concrete on the end, the other has a length of pipe.

I suppose it would be too much to walk up to one and ask them if they've seen our killer..

These guys should be easy. Want to have some fun up close? It'd make for better footage. Dirk get the camera ready.

Would be really handy to have Phoebe here with her gash fists, but she's away on holiday.
Who wants to be the close combat bunnies then?

I can perform close combat duties, and if K'trr wants to join me that would be nice.

I'm really *not* a close combat dood. Eraser is though.
I could jump out with my lights on and go "AARGH", might make them pee themselves a little. Or at least distract them from you hitting them in the back of the head.

You want close combat? Chainaxe 10 do? or would you prefer martial arts 6?
Eraser, as quiet as he can wrote: Give the word, and I'll jump in...

I think martial arts is probably going to be quieter than a chainaxe.
See if you can lure them towards us, away from their posts.
Tezz, does Spindle have a melee weapon?

Okay...
I'm going to get one of my Bosh SLA Blades and aim it past the two guards to hit off a wall, then when they turn to investigate creep over and try to knock them both out...
Throw: 8,9,+5 Total:22
Sneak: 7,10,+2 Total:19
Martial Arts: 2,8,+6 Total:16 (guy 1)
5,5,+6 Total:16 (guy 2)
So this is all assuming i get suprise and don't have any major problems.
Night all.

OK, then I will try to sneakily approach them as Eraser distracts them and attack. Camera on and all that.
Sneak: 8, 2 + 4 = 14
I will add in a running leap attack for my strike for some camera flourish. I'll go for a somersault.
Running: 10, 1 + 6 = 17
Acrobatics: 9, 2 + 2 = 13
Blade 1-H: 10, 3 + 4 = 17
That's 2 PEN, 7 DMG, 2 AD + 2 damage bonus, assuming there are no surprises.

It almost works perfectly, except rather than knocking either of them out you smash one into the wall, knocking him senseless but not unconscious, and put the other one on his arse clutching his head. Not a great deal of noise has been made though.

Drag 'em over and keep their mouths sealed! I think it's time for a little interrogation to bolster our observation efforts!

Although pointless now, he doesn't. Do I need one for unarmed combat?
If I did, I was simply going to action "look for something sharp/heavy/ weapon like".

I think you can punch someone bare-fisted, but it wont do a whole lot of damage.
There are a ton of melee weapons on page 230 of the main book onwards, I'm using a mutilator glove because I can wear it while still holding a gun.

One of them appears too badly concussed to put up much resistance, while the other wriggles and squirms and tries to scream. However, he's not particularly strong and has a hand clamped over his mouth (and possibly nose too if it's Eraser who has him).

Yup, It'll be me dragging them back to the rest of the team, after retreiving my knife
