Since you rolled a 20 on a Skill check... that actually counts as a Critical Success (a 30). So your result is actually a 40 (30+10)!

But you see nothing that seems to be approaching you. You do, however, notice a small amount of smoke rising up into the air beyond the rim of the sinkhole. It is to the southwest of your current position.

So a ALMOST waisted spot check.

Don't worry, it appears the roller is being nice to this game.

If you follow either Argyle or his drone, you would be able to get good coverage while the team remained outside of any buildings (obviously).

Edditing post.


Also, computer use rolls for hacking:
Argyle's Base: 10
Gnomere's Base: 12
Argyle: (1d20)[1]
Gnomere: (1d20)[14]

Arrgh F***. No chance we can say that Gnomere is actually taking the lead, like she really does?

Any way, total 1+10+((14+12+4-10)/2)
Total is 21, or an auto fail due to a 1.
opps.

If it is always going to be her doing it, then we can do it that way. But not if it's just this time because she rolled better.


However (this time), it appears that almost as soon as you start tampering and before any real information comes your way, you are locked out.

Its fine. Rule 1 of any game: The DM is always right. Besides, you won't get any complaints from me about having a mini-Mal in my suit.

No, she always takes the lead when she can gat a connection, and nothing needs to be physically typed in. (In other words, unless I need a hard conection, she does it and I offer advice should something pop up. Mostly because it's hard to hack and effectively fight...) I assume the rolling is still the same in order to maintain balance?

However, this is a better scenario than being flooded with a data bomb as I was thinking you would do. I would have made it funny though...

You see the sentry posted up in the tower, and two more milling about outside the buildings. Those two are seated next to a medium-sized campfire, cooking and chatting about something. And yes they are all armed. You have no visuals on any of the interiors of the buildings - the bunker is too dark and the others have glass that is coated with dust and grime.

This is purely to give you an idea of the general appearance of the people you see. (Note: there may or may not be four of these people... and they do not necessarily represent specific individuals, at this time.)
