loving this fight, even if I can't roll above a 5 to save my own butt
actually I did have a +2 still, now that I think about it. +6 to strike - 4 for defensive = +2
Ok got it BAB = +2 +4 Chr -4 Fighting Defensively. All good thanks for clearing up my mind. Now quit stealing the DM's bad rolls.
no joke!
Ummmmmm Correct me if I have this wrong but isn 't Ward close by to Natalie and Russian Woman Agent with Natalie knocked on the ground and he just leaves?
There is that. I like how noone actually noticed the other white lady in the office.
In an Intel office, there are all kinds of people. .. ;-) you are correct though, Ward is at least aware of the agent, Natalie pointed her out before going in to investigate.

Can I hear them?
Yes, definitely
Oh well, maybe next time. I already delcared my action.
Thanks! I have modeled my character after my uncle, CAT Shannon from Dogs of War and a Lt. Colonel Mackenzie fro SOF magazine.
During the Cold War, India got the majority of their arms from the Soviets, they thought the Indians were a strategic partner after the Sino-Soviet split against China. The Pakistanis bought mostly European NATO stuff from Belgium and Germany.
I really like these kind of games.
Basically since Razor is out numbered 4 to 1 he plans on chasing these guys down stressing them out as they can't shake him. Once they are good and stressed out he will start bumping and grinding again. And maybe throw in a crisis at the end for good measure. It does me no good to get to lead 0 and have a firefight with a van full of unarmed men.
BTW does Razor know its 4 in the van?
Not entirely unrelated I never change my vitality points on my character to reflect the nights rest. I would regain 3 vitality per hour of rest and I was down 10. Should I update my character sheet to show full Vitality.
Razor saw four men get into the van before they left. Whether there were more in there before is up to question.
Yes, go ahead and add those points.

go get em, Razor!!
Going to try this strategy 2 more times and then try and cause an accident. And hope that I have a good opposed check on that turn.
DM Shadow let me know if you would like me to post multiple opposed checks in one post to speed up the gameplay or if you want the Chase to proceed round by round.
wow that was some lucky rolling some of those save rolls would have been trouble if they were the check roll.
I'm out of town until tomorrow night. So I won't be on until then, or most likely, until Friday. Sorry :(
Nat and Ward are the Charismatic types. I can help but my character doesn't have the interrogationy stuff in him.
yeah but my charisma can't help until i get another point of will. Last time all I had was a +1 total to my rolls.
side note: I may have shorted myself on skill points.
DM what is your interpretation of page 367 "Further, the Prey's vehicle, if any, cannot move, either because it is broken (if the chase ended with a crash), or because it is trapped by the Predator's lead vehicle or the terrain." So my question is since the the chase ended in a crash is the van considered broken equaling 3 failed saves or is it 2/3 way to getting broken? And then another 3 to getting destroyed.
It is close to broken, and trapped by the terrain, as in some of the bricks from the wall have collapsed onto its hood. It could be driven if it was dug out.

Damn, Macomb isn't taking any risks, is he? Also, I'm not sure if I need to do anything during this interrogation? I (my character) don't speak Russian and you're already rolling for me, it seems.
When outnumbered 4 to 1 you even the odds before asking any questions.
I would have killed them out of hand. Smith isn't a huge fan of indiscriminately killing women although he doesn't mind so much because of his experience in Vietnam.
I was rolling for Ward since you said you were going to be away for a bit. Now that you're back, you're welcome to do something else, of course.

Thinking a single survivor could be a source of information.
Funny thing is that the whole chase took 1 Minute in game time.
was away for the weekend, I'll be back in touch shortly. step one: see if I know russian
I have a question about this interrogation. First off, if this DC has a max helpers thing, we're all sorta out. but also, if this is sorta needing done quick, the wiki does offer the 'streamlined version' in case you want.
If I can assist, I'll do so, as I really don't have any specialty in this field, the most I had last time was that +1 to the roll.
It makes sense that I'm botching my rolls seeing as I don't speak Russian :P I'm trying to charm her and probably insulting her in 3 different ways. In that case, actually: GM, Ward will stop trying to charm the Russian now.
Does my swiss army knife have pliers?
Of course

Not in 1980 it didn't. The multitools didn't come out until the mid 1990s. The best you would have would be a weak pair of scissors. :)
Sure they did. http://www.multi-tool.org/vintagepliers/hoffritz-plier-1.jpg?attredirects=0
I was going to say that my swiss army knife from the 805 had screw driver, tweezers, toothpick, scissors, can opener, bottle opener, corkscrew, several blades, nail filer, but no pliers but I had a cheap model.
I stand somewhat corrected but pliers weren't standard on swiss army knives. :) but its fine with me.
Don't look a gift horse in the mouth, Smith :p Especially if it's a gift horse of torture.
Making do with less is how rangers do... :)
I know it was implied, but I got serious ewwwed out there just now.
That aside, I'd say Timothy's using Worse Cop to end this, but he doesn't have the will modifier for it. Hmmm
My character doesn't like this kind of work at all, but missing mission critical information that could get his comrades killed is not a risk he is willing to take.
would I need a knowledge roll to know why the KGB'd send a false agent to the consolate, because I sure don't understand why, OOCly.
why yes I shorted myself 4 skill points somehow.
I haven't corrected it, depending on what GM wants to do about it, if anything. Always fine with the 'you snooze, you lose' philosophy
I haven't had a chance to look over that with a fine forth comb, but go ahead and spend those 4 and if there is a discrepancy, we'll fix it later. Right now I'm more concerned with how the story is going :-)

if there is an error, I'll gladly fix it, thanks. I'll update shortly.
updated: Slightly more canny, slightly more manipulative
I think Smith is right that the attack only makes sense as a diversion.

this is still a relevant question on my behalf
