Van's resist: 24d6 ⇒ (2, 4, 2, 6, 6, 5, 6, 4, 6, 6, 6, 2, 5, 2, 5, 1, 3, 4, 1, 4, 1, 4, 6, 2) = 93
Initiative: 10d6 ⇒ (1, 3, 5, 4, 6, 3, 6, 5, 1, 5) = 39
I think the Van made it, I also get Init 15 and 5 passes

Why have we stopped? Xabulba, you still there?

Good. I'm asking because I want to learn how the Shadowrun system works.
4d6 ⇒ (5, 3, 5, 3) = 16
12d6 ⇒ (1, 5, 4, 4, 4, 2, 2, 3, 4, 6, 2, 5) = 42

I'm still inside the van, does this grant me cover of some sort?
Reaction 4d6 ⇒ (3, 4, 6, 3) = 16
BA + body 12d6 ⇒ (5, 5, 5, 4, 6, 4, 6, 6, 3, 2, 6, 2) = 54

Sorry for the late post, I'll roll the two extra d6, can it change the outcome of my action?
2d6 + 0 ⇒ (1, 1) + 0 = 2
Guess not...

Rolling Pilot+ Agility. I also have Positive Quality: Gearhead rank 2. How does this apply?
9d6 ⇒ (1, 4, 2, 4, 2, 1, 6, 6, 4) = 30

Initiative10d6 ⇒ (2, 1, 2, 5, 3, 2, 2, 2, 1, 3) = 23
Mine's 11 with 1 pass.
Moses panickes for a second, then starts up the van with the intention to ram the troll on the far left (Troll 3) with it.
This is when my noobness comes up: how do I do that? What dice do I need to roll to perform this action?

Moses grunts in disappointment. Suit yourselves. Take your own car or bike, whatever, let's all go there in a trail of vehicles, yeah, that won't look conspicuous at all. But who am I to teach you the job?. He then replies to Alistair: By the way, I am my own mechanic, and I'm probably better than yours. He then gets in the van and slams the door, waiting for somebody else to take point.

Moses' Van is a old, sturdy GMC Bulldog, parked just in the middle of the lot. He leads the other there, opening the back door and revealing a untidy mess inside. Since he lost his shop, Moses has been carrying what's let of it in the back of his Van, that now looks like a collection of spare hardware parts and random electronics hanged from the ceiling. Here we are, sit wherever you want says Moses rather enthusiastically. Oh, and if you find something useful, don't hesitate to ask. Don't mind the appearance, this is still one of the best hardware shops around. He then goes at the driving seat and starts up the engine (there is also the passenger's seat near him). Right, who knows where is the place?

Intuition and Perception:5d6 + 0 ⇒ (2, 5, 2, 1, 3) + 0 = 13

I suppose inspecting the place beforehand wouldn't hurt... Tomorrow morning I can get us some more insight on the place, no sweat. I know a person, so don't worry. I mean, you obviously aren't worried, because we are all professionals here, right? Moses pauses, then smiles again: Anyway, I have the right ride. I'll bring you to the place.

I plan to use myu thrusty Van. Do you guys have a vehicle?

Does this mean that I don't need to call Tanja anymore for info?

Can't help you with the matrix there, but if you guys, I meant, gentlemen, need some particular equipment I can start looking around...

Ok, good. So, from what do we start this, uhm, run?

There is an akward moment of silence before Moses realizes that the people around him are waiting for his speech. Oh, right. Right. My name is Moses Blake. I've always been a businessman, up until some... unfortunate, circumstances, mind you I didn't have anything to do with it. But I digress. I am skilled in commerce and bartering, and can gey you pretty much anything you need for a fair price. Have a long list of trusty friends all around. Not a killer but I can defend myself he says, showing his big handgun. Oh, I also have a van. Just in case we need one.

Moses, looking pretty confused, talks to the man. So, let me get this straight, alright? We have to hack into the warehouse system to ensure Bertinelli gets his shipment of Nuance thinghies, and then steal and destroy what we find there? Is that it? This is the first time Moses is asked to destroy a shipment instead than deliver it. He puts on a fake smile and says Of course I can do that, for sure. Not a problem for me. I can also help the other gentlemens over here, if they want of course. You have your man, Mr Johnson.

"Any questions? "

Moses has bucketloads, but since this is his first run, he will wait for more experienced runners to speak up first.

Moses observes his sorroundings with a confused look on his face. This is the sort of place you go if you a looking for a run, they said. But what are you supposed to do? Wave your arms and say "hey, I want a job and have loose morals", like those people over there?

When they give him the key, he stares at it puzzled for a solid two minutes, before realizing that it's timed and he needs to move his ass if he ever wants to find a job there.

He takes a deep breath, and more antidepressants go through his body. Better sorry than safe, then. He goes upstairs and enters in the private room. At the sight of the elf already in the room, he puts on a fake smile and says: Cheers, cheers. Are you Mister Johnson?

Since this would be my character's first run, I think I wouldn't know the others yet.

Moses is at the bar, face on the table and a large beer in the hand, trying to forget his recent misfortunes.

And I'm done (I think, still need to get used to the system).

Still need to finalize my gear. I think I'll just copy the equipment from the pregenerated smuggler in the manual tough.

By the way, you need to name this campaign using the campaign tools. As of now, if I click to "new" posts or try to access this or the recruitment thread from Moses' posts, it redirects you to the Paizo homepage. If you name this campaign this issue will disappear.

This is my smuggler so far. I found the character generation to be midly headache inducing. I still need to finish lifestyle and gear. Can you check how it is so far?
