In SR4 you don't reroll the sixs, all target numbers are 5.
will roll em
I edited my post after you rolled.
the dice pools and thresholds needed for the camers and lights are posted now.
trying to control the car will be considerd combat, use Hacking + attack (c)
I’m sorry if I jumped the gun, this is my first PBP game, but I want to clarify what you’re plan is.
From you discussions I assumed that you are looking for a place to ambush the car.
To ambush the car you are planing to use explosives to stop the car them then jump the car with neon spider jinking the trafic systems.
Is there any thing I missed or anybody wants to add?

That's more the idea unless Neon can down their car electronically.
I have 4E.. just never played it. I had planned to have equipment already done by now, but with the holidays and all.. ya know.. I have no problem with anyone recommending equipment that i may need.
6, 2, 5, 2, 2, 4, 6, 2You think this is the best site and postion for an ambush.

Neon Spider: you gain control of the traffic lights and access to the cameras but you were unable to gain control of the cameras. You can try again at a higher threshold but if you fail Lone Star will be alerted.
Samuel Crisno: you manage to construct the IED and plant it in the road but your not sure if it will do the job properly, it might not stop the car or it might blow it in two.
Looking over the ambush site Ronin says, "I think the best place for Grace would be on the roof right above the ambush site. Chance, Sam, and I will set up in the alley and I think Spider should set up in the dead end street across from us. I also recomend that we all wear masks or face paint or something, so it's harder to make out who we are. This is all going to have to go down as quicly and quietly as possible if we are going to pull it off successfully."
"The roof sounds good to me, nice clear line of fire."
Grace picks a roof just past where the IED will explode so she has a chance to off the driver with gunfire if the IED doesn't disable the vehicle. She is also going to bring a rope and tie it to something solid so she can get down from the roof in a hurry if she needs to.

" Ok I have the lights the cams i'll try on the fly later as that way if something goes wrong lonestar will be on us on are way out not waiting for us. "

"Is it possible Spider could sabotage the controls on the cutter as a backup for the IED? I think we should be prepared just in case the explosive doesn't do the job."

Ambush
My understanding was before, it seems the safest way to pick up the courier. Roll up in the pick up vehicle and grab him.
I agree, before.
The explosive is set, everybody takes their places and wait for the prey to arrive. Almost to the minute the Evo pick up team drives down the street. As the van crosses the ‘X’ both Crisno and Neon Spider strike. The IED goes off late blowing the back doors open causing the van to fish tail wildly as it speeds past the blast point. The fishtailing becomes worse as Neon spider cyberneticly wrestles with the rigger.
Neon Spider make a hacking attack against the rigger. Your pool should be hacking + level of attack program + the level of the machine spirit.
Everyone roll for Initiative.
Initiative (1d6=5, 1d6=3, 1d6=6, 1d6=2, 1d6=1, 1d6=4, 1d6=3, 1d6=6, 1d6=6, 1d6=5)
5 hits + 10 Initiative = 15
If there is a reasonable chance she can get a bullet through the windshield Grace is going to try and put a hole in the driver. Otherwise she is going to try and finish the van off.
What is my dice pool modifier for hitting the driver?

Ronin checked his guns one last time as he waited for the ambush to go down. "Explosive in the Predator, AP in the Ingram," he told himself. "Controlled bursts, save the red tabs in case the ork needs a little 'encouragment' on his way to the River Styx."
Initiative:
Grace Guns 15
Ronin 15
Thomas Chance 8
Neon Spider ?
Crisno 1
Grace & Chance: The van is fish tailing to wildly to target anyone inside the van. Roll your actions.
Neon Spider: I thought you were acting at the same time, sorry. We'll continue as is, being this is the first combat there was bound to be a few mistakes.
GM:
My init attribute is 5 and i scored 0 hits, which makes my init score 5 for this combat. Just curious as to why you marked me as having 1 initiative.

Your gunfire blows out the already damaged front tire but your second jams on you.
After lossing one of it's front tires the van skids out of control and runs up on to the median comming to a stop. The side and rear doors fly open and with guns blazeing a human exits out of each side door and an orc steps out of the rear.
Human 1 targets Grace = no hits
Human 2 targets Ronin = 2 hits
Orc targets ronin also = 2 hits
"I'm going to take the one shooting at me, Thomas can you try and get one of them alive so we can question him?"
