As for the Thermite I just met a guy that may be able to get it for us thing is it will not be a legal transaction so if your fine with that I'll see how long it will take him to get the stuff. He should be able to get silencers too just means money and time. I'll give him a call ASAP. As for skill with a med kit I have only the basics on how to use it I do have a spell that I can use it may or may not work depending on how cybered up the guy I'm trying to heal is, so best have some back ups in place. Micro finishes his smoke and waits to see if Meg wants Micro to call his new contact he just made. Well maybe it is going to pay off shelling out all that money after all. Micro does his best to think of anything else that is important.
I agree with Meg with the first thing we should do is find away to access the underground areas, if we have blueprints that will let us know great, we should still head into those accesses through astral to see if they are still usable that way we don't go down there and have to turn around. Also if we get that Thermite I don't have a clue how to use it Four Eyes you seem good with explosives maybe you can figure out how to cut a hole with them without cutting a hole in your arm.8

"Isn't all this talk of military grade armour, stealth suits and anti-drone weaponry a bit of overkill? We've already established that the star has gone in for search and destroy and likely picked the place clean of any evidence. Threat assessment is low, a quick recon can confirm this. If the threat assessment is still low then a light armament will be wisest. The only issue is MOE, which the thermite easily covers."
"Oh," he adds, throwing the comment in Shade's direction "Last I checked there was nowhere to attach gel packs to form fitting armour."

I only really mentioned the stealth equipment because I'd love to have some I never really said it like we need the stuff. It is only the stealth I'm talking about does not have to be on military armor either you can put it on any clock or clothing that will cover your entire body. I know it is over kill for this mission but I'd still love to get my hands on some one day. Well with the way all my technology is going it may be better not to get the stuff it may just start lighting me up like a Christmas tree. Micro thinks remembering how his bike and t.v. aren't working the same for him.
If Meg is sporting the bill on some of this I still say every Mage summon 1 elemental each of us with a different elemental around the force 3 or 4 level for added back up.

Shade gives Bishop a toothy smile. "That's why it's called wishful thinking." He looks back to the group. "I just don't wanna hang out there any longer then needed. Maybe she could send something with us."

Yes - wishful thinking - Sorry Bishop for giving the impression that I was going down the route of a Military strike squad.. no - I have just been fishing for potential options.
On the whole I think you have got everything you need to get in and out quietly - which is what I would like - keep it quiet keep it out of the public eye. The more we 'tool up' the more exposure you let yourself in for.
two jobs- One is to check out the above ground building - you should be in and out pretty quick. Like Bishop says there shouldnt be much left since the Star have been through
the second is to attempt to get into the underways - see what has been creted up
If you ever encounter a major threat like the vampire again - then I would like the peace of mind that there is nothing left in its local area that could pose any further threat
OK - you got your gear - go check the building and then have a search for local access routes -

(OOC it would be useful for you to write up any of the access points that you investigate - some may well have been sealed but other less prominent or less obvious routes could still be open.. manhole covers to the sewers.. air vents from rootops.. maintenance tunnells.. the underways of other blocks.. power&water piping.. rubbish/resyk chutes
There are a few things which you have not brought to light yet - discussed with everyone - that you had noticed inside the building.. these may still be available.
of course there may not be anything there !)

"One last thing Meg. Something for further down the road. It would be nice if you could cover some of our spirit expenses. I put almost as much as I make into summoning, even more so this time around. It's simply the cost of supplies. " I looked to Micro "I guess we better get ourselves setup for a little trip."

Now that we have a batch of freshly created alchemical products created by this team of aprentices - there ought to be enough material available to cover at least one of your summonings. I would like to say we can cover all expenses or damages as they are used up in persuing the job.. but I can't do that yet as we are still on a verty tight schedule and may need to dip into different items every so often.. so until I know where the company is then I am sorry but I cannot reemburse you.
We have another four lunar months where the students will be cooped up in here with their experiments. I need to re-establish the contract for the next semester too.. with the UK authorities. We do not have results yet so they may be wary in paying Commute for a further year with no evidence. Regarding this I expect to make a few trips to Great Britain when there are lulls in the onsite activity.. and probably host a couple of visits from the board so they can see what we are doing.

(OOC - please submit your area searches for access points - a writeup of what type of acces you are individually or group investigating. most places will have some light security - but with the Star activity just across the road this will have been beefed up - so resident ID checks and occasional spot-checks by internal blok security will be the norm (demonstrating to the residents that their rent money is being used !
Also you still have two known facts about vampires that you can apply to them.. Henri and Micro have been thinking about their intense experiences from the fight - this can be used to 'know' or realise something about vampires in general..
for example micro may have realised that the body mass is really compact and the lack of internal air pockets would lead to them never being able to float or Henri may have seen in their aura that as they are dual natured they are affected by the thalmaturgical elements far more .. an allergy to air earth fire water.. or pure elements..
This would allow you to nail down an aspect of vampires that will always apply.. (this could stop me rescuing them through use of a weasly loophole!)
could it be that you realise they would go dormant or forget skills because their brain synapses cannot retain information well.. think of it as a piece of successful in-depth research on them - a classic is to kill the parent will result in the death of the young.. but does that work? it is a myth from which you could research the truth.

((setup))
Shade starts by summoning the highest power watchers he can handle. With the forge building in use Shade has been sleeping in the workshop. He gets comfy on his sleeping bag and meets up with micro, spirits in tow over the commute.
"Let's check the area around the building first before heading inside."

(grrr twice my post had been lost.. third time is the charm so they say.. third time is a flamin chore say I)
Does anyone have connections to the Japanese exiles or refugees from San Fran - I am after a swordsmith who can make Katana blades or the smaller ones - Wakasashi...? those are the most popular amongst sammies arn't they? reason.. well there is always a call for good blades - especially something that can bite better than most.. and can disrupt spirits
or maybe a good solid tonfa...

I don't have any contacts that could help you out with the sword smith, I would suggest talking to the brother of Kristina since he knows alot of people in China town they may be able to point you in the right direction.
------------------------------------------------ With Shade Silverwing you stay here and look after me and Shade's body until we get back.Sure thing Micro.
Micro decides to summon 4 watchers at a force of 3 Summoning 6 [dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6] [dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6] [dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6] [dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6]
Drain Charisma 4 (3Lstun) [dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6] [dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6] [dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6] [dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6]
Ok I'm fine with the exterior being checked out first, so exterior then interior above ground, then find access to the lower levels for when we physically go there then take a peek at the lower levels is that the general plan? 8[rand=297076287407814155834237512305986839810264862076447603343982663]

"I can get some types of bladed weapons but I'm thinking your looking for something custom forged, old school?" Shade holds up his sword so Meg can have a better look. "I asked him to reforge my blade. He used the materials we got a while back. I could have gone diktue but I wanted something lighter and went with a monoedge." Shade gave her another moment before letting it slide back into place.
"I know a craftsmen, it's just a matter of haggling with him."
------- Micro
"Yeah but I'd prefer to go in from the top down. I want a look at the basement before we go entrance hunting because that most likely leads to the sewers. It's easy to see down there thanks to all the moss and agile but that same moss can trap us down there too... so let's save that for last."
