General Shadowrun Questions III: Ya like that, Chummer?

[DigoDragon]

Well, not until back-up arrives. That's when the men with guns and german shepherds barghests arrive.

One of the best distractions I helped create on a run to collect specific paydata, was calling in a bomb threat to the building across the street from the target building we needed to break into. The target building had better security, so we broke into the building across the street and planted a mysterious package that looked like it could be a bomb (it was a bomb, because the rigger demanded authenticity, but it was not armed, because the shaman demanded sanity). Us Runners dressed up as cops and helped evac the target building. It worked, as no one really questions the police when there are a dozen legitimate emergency vehicles pulling up to your street. Those knowledge skills came in handy too, as we had skills in police procedures, medical evac, terrorist negotiations, etc. from half the party being former Lonestar or DocWagon.

Was one of those rare runs that just went near flawless.

He still got away. They pulled out their phones to check the health plan.

Pffft haha! That's GMing right in my opinion. Making your security personnel seem like real people with real concerns about themselves.
