This was a mistake, but I think that it was unavoidable. The team had
been hired to break into a facility and steal a small box. The Johnson
told the team specifically "we will be watching you, and we will be in
touch with you after you have completed the run." I wasn't the GM, I was
just a player for this one so what happens next isn't my fault.
We come up with a plan that involves charging the semi our rigger owns
into the front of the building, and then using the pop-up turrets to take
out the six guards at the front desk. From there we would, using maglock
passkeys and brute force, go through the building up to the 3rd floor and
get the box. The plan worked. We blew away the guards, went foot-by-foot
killing more guards until we got the box. At this point all hell broke
loose. Guards were coming out of the woodwork, it seemed like. We busted
our way out eventually, and we saw a helicopter with its searchlight on
the semi. So one of the players (not me) shot it down: called
shot:searchlight, full auto burst, result: 15D with 10 boxes of
overdamage. The heli went down hard. So we run away, and spend the next
week and a half (roleplayed out, a miracle) waiting for the Johnson to
call and pick up the box. Eventually we gave our fixer a call. The J was
in a helicopter crash a week and a half ago. He'd been shot down.
