Starting today off a little differently. Last time, I dropped the d100 for a 3d10. Here's how it's going to work

You'll still give me the standard 3 rolls against a a preset DC. However, rather than skills and equipment bonuses taking a way DC, you can use them to increase rolls before results are announced.

Example: you roll a 15,12, and a 17 against a mystery DC to shoot someone with fishgun. Very mediocre. I'll call a vote, allowing you to use your points, off the top of my head, 8, 5 for skill and 3 for equipment, to add to the highest roll. These will reset periodically, probably after an extended period of time out of combat. Any questions?

>>563042
Seems pretty good. Good to have you back Handler!

>>563042

Sounds good to me, at least we'll be able to see how it works

Alright, so last time we fucked up a lot. I asked on Twitter if we wanted to start where we left off, or bring it all back to the top, but no one got back to me.

What do you guys want to do?

>>563343
How badly are we fucked?

>>563343

I say we keep on from where we left off, these things happen especially in combat and they suck but it adds to the realism of the world. Plus I feel like while in the short term we'll get shit for it but as long as we are not asshats and show we're competent moving forward it wont follow us for too long. Every veteran has a few of those "Oh shit I fucked up bad" moments under their belt, it's almost unavoidable, you just have to survive them

>>563343
Eh, let's leave it.
Also, lovely to see you this evening handler.

>>563343
I just want to see Harrison get his own comeuppance with a critfail so he'll get off our back.

Sorry about that. Got dragged over to the sister in laws for supper.

Last thread anons wanted to call for a surrender. If that sounds good, give me 3 rolls of 3d10. If it doesn't, suggest something else.

Write ins will lower the DC. You have no charisma points to raise your roll here

>>563375
Not too terribly bad. Miller came in clutch and very possibly saved the lives of both you and Harris. Yves is pretty pumped about that.

Then you critfailed the roll to call for a surrender, so I took my ball and went home to work out this 3d10

Rolled 9, 9, 1 = 19 (3d10)

>>563767

Rolled 3, 2, 4 = 9 (3d10)

>>563767

I really can't think of any good write ins here

Rolled 10, 2, 3 = 15 (3d10)

>>563767

You take a moment to shake the stars from your eyes, and the ringing from your ears. Luckily, sounds like one of the idiots shot himself in the foot, so they’re done shooting through the floor.

“Come down peacefully,” you shout up the stairs. “We just want O’Neal and the guns!”

“Nigga, fuck you,” the response comes eloquently from upstairs. “Y’all just fuckin’ flashbanged yourselves. Come get ‘em!”

As if on cue, another burst comes from outside, and you can hear them dive from cover upstairs.

Miller turns to you and Harris. “Well, they wanted us to try. We tried. Should we do it the hard way,” he asks, apparently down from his adrenaline high.

“Looks like we’ll have to,” Harris says as he discards a pair of magazines his armor couldn't save. “Damn shame.”

>Plan of action?
>Unknown number of enemies, two wounded. They are suppressed for the time being. However, time spent suppressing these men is time not spent on others.

>>564106
Should we have Harris throw a flash this time?

>>564106
Is there another way upstairs?
Some other angle that we can attack from, to make up for what happened?

>>564127
There are outside windows, but the platform has narrow walkways next to the building. You could get boosted up inside, but it'd be kinda easy to see what you're doing

>>564144
Could we get a flashbang in through one of the windows?

Then when the upstairs is flashed, Harris and Miller charge up the stairs?
Or we can charge up with Miller, while Harris throws a flashbang throw the window.

>>564261
If you get support for it, sure can

Okay, anyone else got any ideas?

>>563042
I don't like this system. 3d10 averages at 16.5. If this is very mediocre, and we have only 8 points to spare on improving results per mission, we'll just fail constantly.

>>564261
I don't think we'd be trusted with a grenade in the nearest future, so let Harris throw the flashbang from outside, preferrably through the window that still has its glass unbroken. This will have the added advantage of distracting the opponents. Then us and Miller can charge upstairs.

Reload with the nonlethal rounds beforehand. We don't want to kill O'Neal accidentally.

>>564827
This sounds good. We need to bang these guys, and we derped the last throw, so time for someone else to give it a try.

>>564827
Yeah. We shouldn't touch grenades for the near future. Fuck, we still need K9 training for Casimir.

Hey, who's around? I can run for a few hours

Also, why are all these street sign captchas from fucking New Delhi with 85 different signs I gotta sort through?

>>567103
The struggle of

>>567103

Here if you are

>>567103
I can play.

>>567103
Here now, though since there's been no response in 3 hours, I guess you're not running after all.

Sorry guys. Figured after an hour and a half with one response was a no go. I'll be around all day today, though, so we can run on and off

>>570023
Ok, let's give it a shot

>>570023
So are we actually doing this?

>>570326
Ded thread?

Nope, we're powering through. Looks like we want Harris to send a flashbamg through a window while we storm the stairs

Give me 3 rolls of 3d10, and we'll get going

Rolled 8, 4, 7 = 19 (3d10)

>>570751

Rolled 4, 5, 10 = 19 (3d10)

>>570751

Rolled 7, 5, 1, 6, 4, 10 = 33 (6d10)

Harris and Miller's rolls

Rolled 8, 7, 5 = 20 (3d10)

>>570751

Since no one else seems to wanna

Rolled 17, 31, 40, 24, 79, 95, 29, 91, 34, 68 = 508 (10d100)

>>570829
Not dealing with 85 d10 rolls so enemies get d100s.

They don't have this many. Just masking the number since you haven't gotten a look at their forces yet

Rolled 10, 9, 8, 4, 9, 10 = 50 (6d10)

Also, you guys have 10 minutes to decide if you want to spend any skill or equipment points on improving your roll. It's currently a 20

Rolled 4, 1 = 5 (2d10)

>>570851
Mother fuck. Odd is you, Even is Miller. Second roll is for where

>>570855

I'm actually good, 20 out of thirty on 3d10 isn't that bad on a bellcurve. Certainly not dropping a grenade at our feet bad.

>>570855
What do we get for the red-dot sight and foregrip on the Saiga?

>>570872
You have a total of three. Two for the red dot, one for the foregrip. You have no skill points in shotgun, though

>>570879
I think we already hit the DC on it?
If so, I'd rather save the bonus for later.

“I’m gonna creep around outside,” Harris starts, also shaking the ringing from his ears. “I’ll toss a flasgbang into a window, then you to head up and start kicking ass.”

You and Miller nod, and Yves slaps a fresh magazine into his M4. Harris leaves out the door, and you and the Frenchman stack up on the staircase.

Nathan tells Cooper to move onto other targets when the flash bursts over the comms, and several seconds later, you hear the loud crack and see the flash of light.

Rushing upstairs, you immediately unload two shells of buckshot into a poor urban youth, shredding his torso. Miller drops a second dazed man, but slams back against the wall, swearing in French. The wooden wall next to you gets three small explosions as the rounds strike frighteningly close.

The flashbang seems to wearing off, and the remaining four men dive behind cover. Judging from the bulk, O’Neal is definitely one of them. You and Miller take your own cover and consider your options.


>Round 4 over
>Kowalski: 1 kill
>Miller: 1 kill, hit. Status unknown
>4 enemies remaining, unknown armaments. Some are taking penalties. No longer under suppression.

>Plan of action?

>>570979
Can we tell where O'Neal went?
Shoot through the cover that the others are behind.
Furniture is no proof against bullets.

>>570979

Let's get behind cover ourselves. If we still have our gasmask, now is the time for the CS/Teargas grenades we brought.

We're in an enclosed space with a guy we WANT alive, right?

>>571010
You know which one is O'Neal, yes.

>>571018
You and Miller both have gas masks, yes

>>571033
Gas the gangers

>>571033

In that case start dropping the gas

Alright. Hit me with those 3d10s and I'll write it up in an hour or so, because I gotta leave for work

Rolled 7, 10, 4 = 21 (3d10)

>>571178

Here goes

>>571178
Dice!

Rolled 9, 4, 5 = 18 (3d10)

>>571178

Rolled 4, 6, 9 = 19 (3d10)

>>571178
last time i participated i rolled a 2, lets hope that doesn't happen again

Rolled 3, 10, 7 = 20 (3d10)

>>571178

>>571187
>>571195
>>571201

You guys want to spend 3 points to get everything to 20?

>>571240

Don't we take the highest roll?

>>571251

Not certain, the pastebin hasn't been updated for it. I thought it was the set DC with the 3 rolls being taken into account with how many passed the DC or failed

>>571342
I take the highest. I was originally going to do it that way, but I switched from D100 to avoid so many crit fails. I felt doing it that way would not fix that problem. I do need to update the pastebin, though.

Do we want to spend any points?

>>571395

I'd be willing to spend 4 to bump it up to 25, definitely don't want to fuck up the gas and this is the jackpot as far as the job goes

>>571410
I agree

You've only got two for grenades, unfortunately. I can add them if that's what you guys want.

It's under the thrown skil

>>571468
Yeah, sure, let's try to not fuck this up.

Rolled 5, 30, 2, 87 = 124 (4d100)

Rolled 23 (1d100)

>>571494

You unhook your gas mask from your belt, and motion at Miller, who is now halfway down the staircase, to do the same.

Masks firmly affixed to both of you, you take a CS grenade from your vest, and lob it to the other side of the room. The hissing starts after a moment, and the choking and coughing immediately after.

You take a peek around the support beam you’re using as cover, to see the man with a wounded foot drag himself over and dive out the window into the water below.

“That wasn't too smart, was it,” you hear Harris’ gruff voice from outside, shortly before three gunshots.

O’Neal pops out from his own cover. He isn't having a fun time. Eyes watery, nose running like a faucet, and struggling to breathe. This makes it fairly impressive he manages to get a few shots of his handgun off, even if they do miss by about fifteen feet.

You shoot back into cover anyway. The way this op has gone, you aren't taking chances.

>Round 5 over
>Jan: 4 incaps
>Harris: 1 kill
>Still three enemies. Taking penalties, but O’Neal is still at least trying to shoot.
>Plan of action?

>>571517
Well O'neal is still up, right?

>>571517
Well, if we know where the others are, let's just shoot them through their cover.
Just don't shoot O'Neal.

>>571517
Slowly advance into the room and clear it by rifle. The others should be in no condition to return fire; by all this they should be begging to not get killed. Slice that pie.

>>571517

Pop O'Neal with the non-lethal dart

>>571590

Additionally ask Miller to suppress the other combatants while we switch to the pneumatic option

One vote across the board for clearing the room, shooting through cover, and hitting O'Neal with a tranq.

Anyone wanna break the tie?

>>571590
>>571619
I'll support darting him

Okie does, let's see some 3d10s. Still have time to change your votes if you want. I'll start writing sometime in the next 45 minutes or so. My job may require me to do actual work soon

Rolled 9, 5, 1 = 15 (3d10)

>>571655

Rolled 1, 5, 5 = 11 (3d10)

>>571655

Rolled 5, 2, 7 = 14 (3d10)

>>571655

Rolled 3, 10, 2 = 15 (3d10)

>>571655

Whelp, balls, how much do you guys want to spend to make sure this works?

>>571832
We'd have to use our skill, for all the good it'll do us.

>>571832
You have 3 points to spend in pistols. Would anyone like to use them? Current high roll is a 15

>>571892
Yes, use them.

>>571892

Definitely use them

Bumping it up to 18. Writing

Rolled 7, 1, 9 = 17 (3d10)

Letting the saiga fall to its sling, you pull your other new toy from its pouch behind your chest armor.

You motion to Yves to give you some covering fire, and he unscrews his suppressor before halfheartedly firing into the ceiling. He doesn't have to try to hard to keep heads down, even from halfway down the stairs.

You load a tranq dart into the pistol, and let it fly with the hiss of compressed air. The feathered projectile sinks into O’Neal’s considerable gut. He curses and continues firing his pistol blindly, the rounds striking the wall behind you.

>Round 6, over
>Jan: 1 tranqing
>4 enemies left. O’Neal should be unconscious in two turns. All are taking penalties from CS gas
>Plan of action?

>>572232
Throw another flash and run in to put down the last 4 men?

>>572232
Use the Saiga to shoot through the cover on the remaining enemies.

>>572232

Shoot through the cover of the last few fellows we don't need alive

>>572232
Tranq the rest. They might be useful to the police.

>>573889
This. Lets try it.

>>573889
>>573932

Dart them while they can't fight back. The cops did say they wanted evidence.

There are still three men, and you only have two non lethal darts left. O'Neal is still up and shooting as we'll.

If that's fine, roll some 3d10s. If it isn't, give me some alternatives, then roll 3d10s

>>574261
Did we take the nonlethal ammo with us?

>>574264
I'll head over to the archives to check, but I don't think so. I'll have an answer in about 10 minutes. If you can point me to the post that mentioned it, I'll allow it.

My no retcon thing doesn't apply to my mistakes

Rolled 7, 3, 7 = 17 (3d10)

>>574275
I proposed taking it before the mission but I think nobody noticed.

Ok, let's tranq two gangers and down the last one, then wait until O'Neal goes down.

Rolled 5, 4, 1 = 10 (3d10)

>>574261

>>574261
I still vote to just shoot through the cover at the remaining gangers. O'Neal is the only one we need alive.

>>574306
Buckshot is actually shit at shooting through cover.

>>574311
Are we still using buckshot? I thought we were using slugs.

>>574325
You have slugs, but buckshot is currently loaded

Also, forgive my slowness. My laptop is working for the first time in months and I'm kind of gorging

Looks like we want to waste some fools from behind cover

Current high roll is 17, but you have one roll left, and up to 3 points to use if you wish to increase it.

This the plan?

Rolled 4, 1, 1 = 6 (3d10)

>>574379

>>574379
sounds good.

Do you want to use any points to increase the roll?

10 minutes to decide, then I'll start writing.

Not a on a phone, for once. Super excited.

>>574389
Let it ride for now, and save those points for when we really need them.

>>574389
You're not, but I am.

Only posting with name because confusion is fun. Only time I'll do it.

Seriously, though, don't spend the points.

Rolled 82, 24, 95, 10 = 211 (4d100)

Writing and rolling. Was busy on a smalls addition for you guys.

Rolled 10, 10, 6 = 26 (3d10)

>>574416

“Miller,” you half-shout over the coughing and sputtering, “We really don’t need the rest of these guys, do we?”

A cruel smile crosses his face, and he say something in French. He pops out from the cover of the stair well, and fires through a TV and it’s stand. A choked scream comes from the other side, and a hand flops around the side, unmoving and pooling with blood.

You take a similar approach, and use your buckshot to shred both an old couch and the basketball fan behind it. Two down, but O’Neal is still up, as is one of his cronies. They’re taking potshots from behind cover, but they’d probably need an actual miracle to hit you.

As the ridiculously one-sided exchange ends, Harris appears at the bottom of the stairs.

“You two got it?”

Miller grunts in response, and Harris replies with another grunt. Those two spend too much time around each other.
>Round 7, over
>Jan: 1 kill
>Miller: 1 kill
>2 enemies remaining. O’Neal is wobbling on his feet, and the final man isn’t sure what to do.
>Plan of action?

>>574434
Pump buckshot into the final man.
Wait for the tranqs to finish taking effect on O'Neal.

>>574434
I FORGOT THE SURPRISE

>>574396
How should we differentiate in /qtg/ now? You be mgHandler and i'll be cqHandler?

>>574434
Demand the surrender of the last dude, whack him if he goes for a gun, cuff him and O'Neal for later use.

>>574434
Try the same trick again with cover for the one guy, then CS and tranq O'Neal.

Items that may be good for clearing rooms nonlethally: flashbangs, stingball grenades and tasers. Most perps will surrender after both tasing and cs gas.

>>574450
He still has a gun, and is actively shooting at you, albiet poorly. That change your plan?

>>574460
Yeah, order him to drop it, tell him he is going to die he doesn't. Make good on threat he declines.

>>574445
Sounds good.

>>574434
"Last chance! Two down and your boss is fading! You can still leave on your feet and not in a body bag!"

>>574498

Seconding this

Alright, give me three 3d10's to call for a surrender

Rolled 8, 1, 10 = 19 (3d10)

>>574654
Hands Up!

Rolled 4, 3, 2 = 9 (3d10)

>>574654

Rolled 7, 1, 6 = 14 (3d10)

>>574654
Rollin

“Hey, dumbass,” you shout into the room. “Fatty here is going to topple, and everyone else is dead. Toss out your gun, and we won’t kill you, too.”

A few seconds of silence, followed by the skittering of a pistol being thrown out. You step carefully out of cover, Miller covering you with his M4. You affix the plasticuffs to both this man and Jamal O’Neal.

For the first time in what seems like hours, there’s silence. Well, other than Cooper and Roman taking periodic pot shots to keep heads inside. Important not to forget you have five more buildings to go through. Especially since the guns and drugs in this one were minor.

>Combat Over
>Loot: 1 Remington 870, 2 Glock 17s, 1 Beretta 92fs, 2 AKs, 1 USP, 1 1911
>Would you like to take anything? Any weapons taken will be dropped when you switch back to a primary weapon, or you can exchange outright

“What’s the plan, now,” Roman asks over the comms. “O’Neal secure? Other evidence?”

“O’Neal and one more in custody,” Harris responds to the black marksman. “No sign of the contraband, though. Where do you guys want to go from here?”

>Plan of action?
>There are five more buildings. Two on each side, and one behind the building you are currently in, all connected by walk-ways that could allow two men to stand shoulder-to-shoulder on them.

>>574874
Have Harris take the prisoners back to be secured, while Jan and Miller go to the building behind the one we're in.
Jan takes point because his armor is still in the best shape.

>>574929

Sounds good to me, we already blew up their means of escape right?

>>574929

I concur with this, but also zipcuff their ankles before we toss them in the airboat.

>>574957
I was going to leave it to Harris to take care of that.
He's so competent, let him deal with it.

>>574874
Go through the buildings clockwise, gassing them then breaching.

Busy and working all weekend, guys, sorry. I'll keep an eye on the thread, and we'll pick it up Sunday or Monday if it's still up.

>>578989
Thanks, handler!

Do we need anything from the rest of the buildings? If not we could burn them down.

>>581053
Clients want the evidence. That's why we weren't allowed to bring explosives to simply blow up the buildings.

>>583482
Guess chemical weapons is the safe choice

>>583884
Supporting this for when Handler returns

>>583884

What do you wanna bet the press uses that exact term to describe teargas?

Hey guys, gonna pick up in about 2.5 hours. Anyone going to be around?

>>598007
That'll be during my commute, so I will only sporadically be around.

>>598007
I'll be here

>>598007
Yep!

>>598007
Yeh

Howdy Ho, Mother fuckers. What's the plan?

>>598726
Have Harris secure the prisoners back at the boat, while Jan and Miller go to the building behind the one we're in. Make sure that Cooper can cover us.

>>598832
Looks good to me
