That is two votes for Data Hack, but there has been a lot of discussion since Teddington voted. Can I hear one more voice for Data Hack or a clear vote for one of the others?
Some of you may want to rest (spending a Resolve Point) or heal as well.
Reading them, all the personal upgrades take an hour to ‘install’ so you should just barely have time even in the worst case.
Edit to add: Starfinder equipment sells for 1/10 what you paid for it. Did your baton really cost you 450 originally? Tactical baton is only 90 credits.

I don't have any hacking related skills, I'm more interested in the paratrooper strike. I'm a bit disappointed we didn't get to see the Zero-G mission.
Well thinking about it we probably don't have the skills for that with 3 soldiers...so maybe we should do something we're good at..which is combat! So I change my vote to Paratrooper Strike given so much has changed since I voted!

"Right, lets leap in behind enemy lines. We'll show them a play them some Star Sugar Heartlove. Music soothes the savage beast, or so they say.." gushes the enthusiastic Gunnz.
And unless anyone objects, lets use that aid token so we can pass it on.
Everyone gets a chance to heal up a bit. Or would you prefer to burn a resolve and keep it... sooner we use it, sooner we get another one... stamina recovery:3d6 ⇒ (2, 1, 2) = 5

Gunnz has used the token for healing. Everyone can heal 3d6 of either Stamina or Hit Points. I will consider it used as part of last mission since you had not started this mission yet. If anyone is using the time to rest and recover stamina, state it.
Back to the planet you just came from.
Venture-Captain Naiaj is barely audible over the roar of the starship engines and the din of battle surging on the surface of the planet below. “We’ve found a vulnerable site where several key jinsul officers direct their ground forces. We’ll air drop you to the landing zone in less than a minute. Once you make it, find the officers and take them out! We’ll come back around for you in just a moment.”
The ship brings you in fast and low. You make a low altitude parachute jump and land close to the enemy lines. There was nothing stealthy about that approach, you expect the enemy will respond quickly!
You have one round of preparation before the Enemy arrives on map.
Teddington moves 35ft forward, pulling out a returning singing disk, and then pulls out the 2nd once he reaches his spot.
He bares his teeth in anticipation, and says to his teammates,
"Remember, you can't flank Jinsul, so let's just smash them head on. Starfinders, time to hunt Jinsul."

The Princess moves to take cover behind the tree trunk, anticipating the jinsul will probably come from the opposite direction. She's got the same artillery laser out that worked so well last time.
Transit back to the fleet gives you plenty of time to recover.
I thought that meant we could spend RP to regain SP, which is what I wanted to do? No? And I was making my grenade.
Anyway, if I can be that close starting out I will be, with grenade laucher out. Yeah, I plan to fire that shock grenade II round 1
[dice=stealth]13+1d20
It did give you plenty of time to rest and spend a resolve to recover stamina. Where did you post that is what you were doing?
I will still allow you to do it this time, but please post when you are spending a resolve to recover.
I had placed people where they landed. You could move from there. No, you can’t magically move all the way across the map like that. Count your movement from your starting position please. Since you are using Stealth, remember you must move half speed or take a -10 penalty to Stealth.
Sorry, I had forgotten to include this in the description.
Green areas have light undergrowth, which functions as difficult terrain that provides concealment to prone creatures. Plants and stumps provide cover, and each large tree is roughly 200 feet tall with smaller trees standing half that height. The river is waist-deep, functioning as difficult terrain that provides cover against energy weapons to Medium or smaller creatures standing in the water.
Jackojare will fire off his grenade launcher with his shock grenade MK 2 in it to hit red and purple. All I need to hit is the square/point, which in most cases is dc 5. My grenade launcher has a range of 60 feet, 12 squares, and I count 21 to 23 square from me to purple/red, so range 2. The grenade is a level 4, relevant later.
I cannot miss unless I roll a 1, but I'm not going to risk rolling a 1, as I stopped within 10 feet of an ally...
Communalism: Once per day, as long as an ally is within 10 feet, a shirren can roll a single attack roll or skill check twice and take the higher result.
hit:1d20 + 9 - 2 ⇒ (1) + 9 - 2 = 8 hit:1d20 + 9 - 2 ⇒ (6) + 9 - 2 = 13I'll be pissed if I roll two 1s in a row, as the odds are 1 in 400. Unless God the almighty is here to play a cruel trick on me.
dmg:1d12 ⇒ 4 electric to purple and red Reflex 17 10+half grenade level(2)+dex mod(5)
Jackojare pulls on his ancestry to make sure his grenade lands where it should. Neither Red nor Green appreciate the gift.
Why no Reflex save:
My reading of the rules for grenades is the reflex save is to prevent additional status effects. You take the damage regardless.
Starfinder CRB, pg. 183 wrote:
Grenades
Grenades are thrown weapons that detonate in an explosive radius when they reach the target. A grenade's listing on Table 7–7: Grenades shows its explosion radius. Some grenades have additional effects, such as blinded or entangled, that apply only to creatures in the explosion radius that fail a Reflex save against the grenade. The DC of the save is equal to 10 + half the grenade's item level + your Dexterity modifier. Any penalty you take to your attack roll also applies to this save DC.
Italics added.
I interpret that as the Reflex save is only to avoid the additional effects.
Gunnz successfully snipes at Green from her hiding place.
Princess Dh’Qa shoots twice at green, hitting both times.

GM Bret, they can take a reflex save for half damage/no additional effects, see below:
EXPLODE:
Explosives have the explode special property, which lists the amount of damage the explosion deals, the damage type, special effects (with a duration, if necessary), and the radius of the explosion. When you attack with this type of weapon or ammunition, aim at a grid intersection. Each creature within the blast radius takes the listed damage but can attempt a Reflex saving throw for half damage. If the explode special property has any special effects other than damage, they are negated with a successful saving throw. Some exploding weapons, such as smoke grenades, don’t deal damage, so they don’t include the damage and damage type entries.
I have bolded the specific part
Also, Jackojare, any range penalty also applies to the DC of the Reflex Save too, so Reflex would 10+2(1/2 Item Level)+5(Dex)-2(Range Penalty). Just a helpful FYI :)
Life Science vs Red:1d20 + 4 ⇒ (14) + 4 = 18 What is it's "thing"
Teddington advances forward and throws a Sonic Disk in the Green Jinsul's face.
Move Action to move 35ft, Standard Action to throw the disk.
Returning Sopranino Singing Disk vs Green EAC:1d20 + 12 ⇒ (11) + 12 = 23 Sonic Damage:1d4 + 12 ⇒ (2) + 12 = 14
Teddington growls as the song of his people strikes the Jinsul in the face.
Red is a Jinsul Sergeant, trained in combat technomancy. CE Medium monstrous humanoid. It has an ability to negate a spell cast at them or their allies,
Defiant Faith (Ex):
Whenever a creature casts an offensive spell that targets a jinsul sergeant or its allies, the jinsul sergeant can attempt a Mysticism check in response as a reaction. If the jinsul's result equals or exceeds a DC equal to 20 + the spell's level, the spell fails. If the jinsul's result exceeds the DC by 5 or more, the creature casting the spell gains the shaken condition until the end of its next turn.
Teddington has really gotten the hang of the disk, smashing it into Green’s jaws.

Red waits until the other two have acted before casting a spell at Teddington, with no better luck.

Gunnz slips through the underbrush, taking a shot at the green one as she goes.

Red didn’t like getting hit, it also sends some damage Jackojare’s way in the form of magical missiles.

I didn't specify, but given there is just the one of them, making them FF is probably a fair call of what Gunnz would have done for her debilitating trick.
Inspiring
Source Starfinder Armory pg. 63
The inspiring fusion imbues a weapon with hope. When you score a critical hit using a weapon with the inspiring fusion, you and all allies within 60 feet gain a +2 morale bonus to saving throws against attacks, effects, and spells from the target of your attack for 1 minute.
First Seeker Elsebo pops up on your displays. "Starfinder hackers have recovered navigation routes for supply lines from a jinsul data center on Agillae-4. Using this information, we have identified vulnerable courier routes in the space surrounding Bastiar-6. The First Seekers need some skilled starship crews to choke the jinsuls’ resource pipelines."
The Starfinder fleet shifts overhead to close in on Callion-2 to scout as much as possible while the Jinsul fleet begins to close back in on Bastiar-6.
Table GMs, the Data Theft mission is closed, and the Sever Supply Line mission in Part 2 is now unlocked.
