That looks good enough. Four of those S's should be finance types, rather than SWAT. Maybe the top four?Aug 25, 2019 12:14 am

The two going for Conner wipe out and fall to the ground, but the three on Mordecai manage to keep their feet. However, their grapple checks with be hindered.
"Get down now!"
That's 2+2+1 successes vs 8 for the grapples on Mordecai.
You're all up, and how does Schlomo respond to this?

Quick questions: Where is Schlomo currently located? Was he able to hear Mordecai?And also, do you want me controlling Schlomo?
Lastly, what do I roll in response to a grapple? Forgive me, it’s been a while.

OOC:
Schlomo is just outside the room, a couple meters to the left of the bottom two cops.Mordecai had to issue orders for Schlomo. I don't mind if you resolve them immediately on your turn.
To resist the grapple you need to actively dodge: you give up your next action for the round and roll Dex+Dodge. Each of your successes negate one of theirs. In this case, you are not grappled if you can negate all five of their successes.
Alternatively to entirely giving up your action, you can split your dice pool: you decide what your next action will be, take the smaller of the two dice pools (Dex+Dodge and your action) and allocate the dice of the smaller pool between the two actions.

The thudding of Schlomo’s heavy set footsteps can be heard as he strides into the room. Mordecai shouts something in Hebrew as the SWAT start taking him down. Silently, the golem (looking like a giant Hasidic Jew) grabs one of the closest SWAT officers and attempts to throw him into one of the others.
Meanwhile, Mordecai doesn’t make any effort to physically resist the SWAT. He keeps his hands in the air and yells, "You are assaulting a rabbi! This is blasphemy! Take your hands off of me!"
I didn’t see a "throwing" maneuver in the book. So i just rolled Str + Brawl for Schlomo, as though he were grappling.; let me know if I should roll something else instead

The SWAT have acted and so cannot dodge. Roll damage, Strength plus five for the successes. This will be bashing damage rather than lethal.

The giant grabs one officer and slams him into another, and both crash to the ground in a sliding tangle of limbs. The other officers faced with a violent threat, release Mordecai and begin to resume.
While tumbled about, neither officer takes any damage.

As two of the SWAT personnel near Conner fall flat on their faces, and as Schlomo slammed two of those near Mordecai into each other, Esther took the opportunity of their collision and the fact that they all hit the ground hard with great force of impact to make some very subtle adjustments to their weapons to render them more harmless.
Side note: Seeing Schlomo in action I realised I haven't worked out my own familiar's stats!
OOC:
Using Matter to distort or damage the metal of the guns, eg for one of them the barrel gets bent from the impact, for another the magazine gets jammed into its holder so that the bullets can't chamber themselves, for yet another, the trigger gets lodged and cannot be pressed etc. All these are coincidental. I'm thinking it's simple Matter 1 or 2 since it doesn't change the element, and affects a very small 'quantity' of the element.Side note: Seeing Schlomo in action I realised I haven't worked out my own familiar's stats!

One success scored. On page 502 of the M20 book, it indicates that at least two successes are required when the Effect is upon someone else. But since you got half the required successes, Esther has achieved a Partial Success, giving "imperfect" results.Aug 26, 2019 5:24 pm
Hold your breath and come this way! Glenda yells as she grabs a couple of vials out of her pack and tosses them out onto the hallway floor. She's blocking the door open with her leg for the others to come through.

Wiki is working on her devices, with astounding speed. ...then the behavior prediction software (mind 2) coupled with the door frame... A green laser quickly traces the outline of the doorframe. ... if I flip sink and source then...HA! A short laugh springs from her lips as she realizes that she is hacking her own software.
Finnaly, the trigger...carrying a weapon. That's it! She hits enter
I'll use a willpower to get one success

While the SWAT are distracted by Schlomo, Mordecai rushes into the hallway where the others are located. He calls to the golem in Hebrew, telling it to follow him and act as cover.

The five of you run down the hallway and them, into the stairwell and down the stairs, Wiki and Glenda leading the way. Gunfire erupts behind you, but isn't directed at any of you. The huge golem blocks the door, attempting to follow.
You're out of sight of the SWAT. Where do you go?
