@Boogie: Now that the Y4SUK1-bot is built out a bit and has 2 Upgrade Slots free, could we get a shopping list for upgrades for it?

Turning into quite the hobby! I will price out the upgrades this coming weekend. They will consist of the ones available in Asakaze mostly.

I've realized that a lot of the upgrades are tailor-made for the context of the event...

Here's a revised and more applicable list!

I think this small follow-up question to my earlier rumor searching might have fallen through the cracks: https://shadows.fallenash.com/viewtopic ... 7132#p7132

1) Make a thread to the effect in your PF.
2) Spend a time slot in Slums looking for ronin by rolling Lore: Underworlds/Intelligence at TN 20. Raises called yield more sneaky ronin. If you fail, you can spend as many time slots until you succeed.
3) Ping Tassu to that thread - you get price. Make sure all members of your faction have agreed on this.
4) Once the price is paid, Tassu runs the script and lets you know the outcome.
Because I'm slow, does that count as Seeking Information in the Slums, aka do we need to pay koku to make the roll?

(No character can be assumed to wear armor within the city).
But...

a) Since the area that the combat scene happens is out limits to many characters, is it possible for people without permit to join?

b) Also: since the area is quite dangerous, can one assume that going there requires preparation, and thus, armoring up before venturing?

a) as per map the scene takes place outside the perimeter and thus us not off-limits.

b) nope, you are not heading into desolation - see above.

Reroll everything - unless the unskilled rolls pass without Raises.

More questions about heists! (Because the gms love those!)

Getting some conflicting info from people, so wanted to check since it affects some of my scheduling

Question 1: How many times can a faction hire a ronin for heists? So far, I've heard both twice per session and twice per game, which...changes things depending.

Question 2: Selling the info. I've heard this a couple ways:

A) Whomever hires the ronin is the only person that ronin can sell that gathered info to.

B) That a ronin can divide it up however they like (though multiple sellers would trigger more Scorpion's trying to get you)

Really enjoying the heist mini-game, really cool and I hope th gms aren't too discouraged by the questions :)
