Ran by: Parker

Starring: Chance as David and Joe as Ashley

Attended by Joe, Chancce and kinda by Owen. We started with terrible technical difficulties getting Owen in over discord so we left him. Session finally starts and the players live in an apartment in the combat zone. The apartments owner offers to give them missions, support, and lower their rent. If they will help her fight the british. They already hate the brits and go along with it.

They are tasked with finding a british affiliated fixer named "bulldog" and getting info out of him. They set off to go to the guy and pass by some kid being mugged. Ashley manages to talk the gangsters down from killing the kid and they drive away. The grateful kid talks about how he left his girlfriend for cheating and then her gangster brother there had come to kill him. When he asked how he could ever repay them he gave them an in to the building by saying they where there to meet his ex.

When they arrived they bough some toy hello kitty walkie-talkies, then David grappled to the roof. Ashley tried to get in to talk to Bulldog. First she went through a ancient and slow door guard and passed the same gangsters, waving to them, which they akwardly reciprocated. The guard didn't let her in when she refused to specify what she was buying beyond "possibly illegal" as that is all bulldog sells, and there hasn't been a cop anywhere near here in forever. Ashley then tried to get in by showing how much money he had, a whopping $40. The guard laughed him away, then Ashley wacked him twice in the head, followed up with a nutshot and chin bonk.

The guys inside took cover as David rappelled in through a big window. The guy outside then called out "nade". Back inside chance blasted one guy who failed at shooting back. The other one behind a table threw a grenade at the door. The guard and Ashley ducked opposite ways down the hall as an explosion opened up the apartment and the floor below. David asked the guy he was near where bulldog was and he pointed to the closed bedroom before fleeing out the window. The other two fired and missed before Ashley dealt a mortal blow to the hallway guard who crawled down the stairs to his death. They shot back and forth, the guard being hurt the others not so much. The guard ran into the hall for a better shot, then Ashley ran through a wall into the bedroom, taking the only bullet on their side (though with no damage). They both eventually got into the room and found Bulldog shaking in fear. Ashleys forgotten bodyguard Bob D Guard walked in and shot the last guard in the skull allowing them to interrogate Bulldog.

Scared for his life he gave them everything. Including cash, a promise to buy David real mozzerela sticks and find them anything else, and info. That info including a shipment of a "microwaver rifle", info on his contact "astolfo", and vague info on the secret to the queens immortality.

Starring: Chance as David, Joe as Ashley, Todd as Z

Chance, Joe and Todd arrived at the hobby games shop irl. I gave them the intel on the truck. A truck with light security was holding the microwaver rifle. It would pass through the desert at night. Towards the end it would pass the wreckage of Davids old train. Finally at dawn it would hit town and get more security. They plotted for a while on how to handle it. Eventually they got a smoke grenade, two spike strips, and a makeshift winch strong enough to pull a traim car with. Then with Bob Degard accompanying them they set off.

They drug a car with a railgun in front of the road with David manning it. Set Bob and Ashley up for a trap, and Z waited in a further back car on a helix machinegun. In came a copy of chances car, the truck, and a pickup truck with a machinegun. Opening fire mostly missed, excpet for David shooting straight down the enemy machinegun, destroying it.

First round people start firing, Engi blows a hole in the british guard on the car in the backs passenger seat, Ashley threw a smoke grenade, and Z jumped down and hid behind his spongebob popsicle, and in the most patrick voice said "hi im spongebob".

Second round more fighting, the trucks driver is allergic and can't aim, the front car Ashley and Bob are fighting the two brits through the windshield, David grappled to his car, the hole man shot his rearvirw mirror off due to the spongebob reflection, and Z obliterated the skull of the poor british gangster next to him with his spongebob popsicle.

Third round more fighting, the driver runs from the gas and barely dodges David ramming his car into her while blasting miley cyrus music, bullets fly, and the engineer pops out of the truck, and shoots Bob with the microwaver rifle, rendering his left leg and right arm unusable.

Fourth round more bullets fly, David and the driver shoot eachother point blank, Z smashes the tech in the head with the spongebob popsicle, and Ashley tanks a microwaver blast.

Round five David grapples to the helix car and unloads on the lady, doing terrible damage, Z misses the techs head, and Ashley is rendered a limp tin can by the blast, followed up by being hit by a grenade from the holey guy.

Round five Davods robo-arm is obliterated by the holey guys lucky shot, and he then misses machinegunning the driver, Z triggers the rear cars nitro, crushing the techs leg between it and the truck, this also pops open a secret compartment with two normal microwavers and a metalgear helmet.

Round six David shoots the driver with a shotgun braced on the rail, Bob pulls a slowly recovring Ashley into cover, and the holey man throws a fire grenade into the roof of his car, burning himself alive.

Round seven David runs and falls into cover behind the car, Z finishes off the burning man with a shotgun shell, and Ashley takes out the driver with a pinpoint rifle hit. Finally all seriously wounded they manage to salvage the microwaver rifle, two extra mags, and some cash from the burning truck. They also take all the heavy weapons and take the arm from the guy whose head got spongebobbed. Finally the mostly unijured bob takes the car and the rest fly off and get patched up in the av as dawn breaks.

Downtime: Ashley and David rested. Z upgraded Ashleys cars to have a heavy chasis, and a mount for the railgun. Bob worked side jobs to help pay for the car upgrades, and went on a date in an abandoned facotry thing to meet the girls gang "family", then was thankfully ghosted.

Ran by: Parker

Starring: Chance as David, Joe as Ashley, and Meshach as Ivan Drago

We open with Ashley in the hospital. For the last hour her limbs, eyes, and ears went stiff and malfunctional, but her organs and brain still work. She went to visit her sister. There she learned that Dr. Humbolt, had just left shortly before after a heart attack. He had been a client of Ashleys in her past life as an AV pilot, and was the one Ashley was taken to robotify her.

They then got into their car, and Ivan onto his bike, when a huge amount of brits piled out. They jumped into another rammer, a gun truck, a kombi with a grenade launcher, a dodge charger, and a double decker bus. They took off trying to escape. Railgun shots missed, but the spikestrip spun out the rammer. David took a selfie with the chasers. Then a grenade spun Ivan off to a right street, with the bus and the muscle car following him.

Bob led the car on a sharp left and through the building he was supposed to be on the date on. They took a bunch of bullets from the gang inside, but escaped off towards Ivan who Bob had a tracker on. Their pursuers got stopped by a rocket in a fiery gas explosion. Meanwhile the other way Ivans bike was between the muscle car and bus. He tried to swerve under the bus, scrapped his armor off on the road and lost the bike crushing it under the wheel. However he clung onto the bus and climbed under it to the front. He killed the drunk driver and swerved into a alley. This caused the corpse to turn on the AV thrusters. Sending a jet powered double decker bus into two buildings. The muscle car escaped, and Ivan finished off the injured survivors luckily with his shotguns.

They picked up Ivan and went to a cybertechs place. There they found an unusual radio transmitter in Ashleys head, linked to all her cybernetics. Unplugging it turned things off, plugging it back in made the body work again. They figured out it was a kill switch for Ashley , connected to Dr. Humbolts heart. Somebody had the genius idea to fully shut Ashley down with the microwaver rifle then take out the radio. It somehow worked. They then went to base and found shipments logs to Dr. Humbolt in their stash of papers from Bulldog. It entailed recent shipments of cybernetics, medical equipment, and extra potent black lace (a drug that prevents pain), sent to the clocktower little ben on the outskirts of little europe. David then bought an agent (smartphone/AI) named charles who speaks in a british accent and whose little image thingy is a handlebar mustach and tophat.

They showed up and had a quick battle with two brits and a guard. Ashley opened with a zap from her spear, which was then stolen by a brit and used against Ivan. While the guard and David both missed shotgun shots point blank. Every enemy, however , was taken out by Bob with three consecutive shots without moving between them.Ashley and Bob went downstairs to a hidden jail cell basement. Ashley tried to choke out the one distracted guard. But alerted him, prompting Bob to blow the guards head off with one well placed headshot. Upstairs was a room password locked. Above it was a placard reading "Without fingers, I point. Without feet, I run. Without arms, I strike. What am I?" It was only when the clock tower struck 10 that they realized the answer was a clock.

They enter and the doctor springs up to attack. He jumped up from behind cover, injected Ivan with black lace (draining him of the rest of his humanity, along with making him not feel pain), then ran into a side room. David went after the doctor, only to be grappled by a freshly crazy Ivan and released by Bob. Ivan then leaped and swung over Ashley on those roof bar things. Then he broke through the wall into the doc's hiding place. The doc sprayed his smg and missed again, then Ivan wrapped his sharp whip thumb around the doc's neck. Bob and Ashley missed their shots. But Ashley zapped Ivans extra arms, turning them off. The doc fired more into Ivans gut, shaving off about a third of his health. Then Ivan yanked on the sharp whip around his neck and decapitated the doc. More battle ensued then Ivan charged Bob out the window. David and Ashley managed to grab them before they fell, but then they fell as well.

Ivan and Bob land, with their armor absorbing the damage, small because they were stopped part way through the fall. David grapples back up and Ashley grabs and throws the docs corpse down at them. Bob takes his first damage of the entire campaign from the corpse Ashley threw. Then he takes at least 4 shots from Ivans shotguns as chance rappels down. David then uses his grappling hand to help Ashley get down with minimal injuries as Bob runs away. Ivan is close to death and shoots David and Ashley, breaking Ashleys leg.

Then Max-Tac flew in from down the street. Ivan popped the flyer in the head with his sniper rifle, crashing their AV, dragging through the concrete to right next to them. As bob took cover behind a car and David took cover behind a building the two C-Swat guys stepped out of the wreck in Metalgear and shot two rocket launchers at Ivan, one hitting Ashley as collateral. Ashley made her death save and so did Ivan. Rekos AV then landed, with Q-Taro blasting Ivan apart with the Helix machine gun, and the max tac guys joining with their rifles, Ivan losing a few less vital organs in the process. Reko jabbed Ashley with some medicine, knocking her unconscious but saving her from death. Bob stumbled onto the AV. Ivan somehow made his save while missing half his body mass, then was knocked out by a blast from Davids crumpet cannon. Then David went under while being tended to on the AV by Q-Taro

All of the important saves, from the save from falling, to every death save, was made possible by our good luck charm and mascot, Tiny Tim

Downtime: Bob gets a new gun that fires shotgun slugs, goes on a dud date and heals up, Z upgrades bobs gun, David just heals

Ashley heals and then goes on a date. She gets matched with someone "independent" and "passionate" named Darek. And goes to little europe for a cooking class at what is essentially a 7/11 where he was learning to cook with CONTINENTAL BRANDS KIBBLE tm (the common food of the time which is essentially dog food with some artificial flavoring). When she showed up the guy is different from the pictures. Thing is the guy in the pictures is a 4k version of "Hans Moleman" from simpsons (i had to look up his name) down to the yellow skin. The guy who shows up however looks like a b list model. Once you get there he won't shut up about his family. He goes on and on about how they where waren rats in a megastructure, poor and overcrowded, but they where close. However as he grew he found out just how poor they where and vowed to pay off his families debts. He just keeps going into such detail, on and on with this guy, so much you couldn't get in a word, though you could write a chapter in your own autobiography about this dudes past just from the parts you still remember. Then he keeps going about how he craves money to help his family, he even shares a bunch of little penny pincher tricks hes been using (gain $50). Finally once the class is over, you having said maybe 3 sentences, 2 of which where about the cooking class, he explains that while you where nice you seemed too boring and quiet for him and he decided not to grow a relationship.

Ivan is taken in by Max Tac (along with the corpse) to prison (the corpse went to a semetry). The two Max Tac cops (and common law) want him executed for murdering the doctor and the pilot. He had however done good work for Milltech in the past, and they heard about his psycho case, specifically that he took down a Max Tac AV with one shot from a crummy gumart sniper. So they swooped in and paid the right people to be able to stop the cyberpsychos execution and instead rehabilitate him. He got some therapy via brainsurgery while in a cryopump before being woken up. He was floated his offer. Sellout fully to Milltech and let them turn you into a super sniper soldier, or meet death via .45. Obviously Ivan choose to live. The two officers gave him 8 elcectro lashes, more then a standard lashing penalty and nearly killing him again. But then he survived, and is now entering more intensive therapy, after which he will be further cybered up and trained.

Boss Gumpus Prison Ellie Liv and Liz

Starring: Chance as David and Joe as Ashley

Bob, Ashley and David arrived amid a sandstorm and were filled in on a plan. Davids nomad clan leader had learned where the prisoners of the train attack had been taken. An underground british tea farm run on slave labor. They planned an assault with the majority of the remaining Gumpus clan.

The clan rode up through the desert and blasted in. Everyone swerved out and took out the bad guys easily, including the players who took out 2 of 3 bad guys in 5 in game seconds. They managed to blast off the other guard's arm and knock him out. They had a hard time getting into the prison cells, taking many rubber bullets, Bob and Ashley slipping and falling, and nearly every attack missing. Finally Bob opened the doors just by blasting the controls. They put a tracker and bandage on the downed guy, and fled.

As the team and Davids freshly picked up daughter drove off into the sunset the dust storm settled, and they encountered Liv ans Liz on bikes. They zoom forward to the players and unload a quarter of a mag into their sides, breaking every side window that wasn't already broken, then turned around to ride besides them. Bullets started to fly while Ellie just kept the car steady. During that time Davod shot the 2 railgun shots leftover from the initial raid. Lizs left arm was disabled with a shoulder shot, and Liv and her bike took most of the damage. Everyone took an autofire blast, and Ashley got hit hard by this, and tried to hide behind the door. Ashley tried to use the microwaver rifle she had borrowed from Z but it failed on the enemies without cyberlimbs to turn off. Ellie used the flamethrower but it had no effect, then Ashley gave Ellie her pistol to attack (though not very effectivly) with. Then Liz rode over and Liv jumped on to her better bike, and sent her 1 health broken bike into Ashleys door. Then they zoomed off with a NOS charge and reloaded their weapons.

Everyone opened fire but didn't hit them. Then they returned and opened fire, injuring Ellie and heavily injuring David. Liv got hit by a headshot from bob and regretted not wearing a helmet, loosing her nose and gushing blood. She jumped onto the cars ram and opened fire, missing everyone. She had a chunk of her side blown out by Bob and dodged a shove attempt by Ashley. But Ellie grabbed Davids crumpet cannon and blasted her off. She held onto the broken doorway with one hand while being dragged on the road, but Ashley knocked her off with the butt of her spear.

Ellie gave the still mostly healthy Liz another flamethrower shot which only lit the tips of her hair on fire, as the rising wind blew it into the air. Liz swung around and emptied her gun into David. David didn't make his save and died. In rage Ellie slammed the car into Lizs bike behind them. The bike skidded away and Liz skidded to a painful hault, ruining her good arm. Ellie grabbed her deceased fathers crumpet cannon and loaded it with a slug, then put it through Lizs skull.

The AV landed a minute later and patched everyone up. As the sandstorm started up Ashley flew away, Bob took the bike back to base, and Ellie drove her fathers corpse back to the Nomad clan. The following day the sandstorm calmed and the Gumpus clans lake calmed to a crystal clear smoothness. The clan dragged his old guard train car here and fashioned it into a crude boat. The enterity of the clan, including the freshly saved memebers, Ashley , Bob, Z, Reko, Q-taro, Keiji, and even Bulldog with a final shipment of mozerela sticks came. They pushed him into the sea and Ellie gave him a sendoff with a flaming crossbow bolt.

Starring: Chance as Ellie, Joe as Ashley and Todd as Z

While everyone else healed and mourned Z and Keiji investigated. They found a man named Dalamar Gamba (Nicknamed Goomba) who was a boosterganger, then became a fixer. He found out about a character named Asfoldo from an old Japanese show. Then he got a full bodysculpt job and new voice to become that character, and gain their obbsessive fanbase. After this spike in popularity he joined the brits as their R&D man. He was the one in charge of the microwaver rifle project, and lost it to the players. Now he is looking for a new project. So he invited Techs to bring their inventions to him, and if they could defeat him in one on one combat with them he would buy them. So the crew got all fancied up and headed out.

On their way out the door they got mugged by 5 albino alligators gang members seeing them as easy prey. Ashley tried to bribe them with $200 but one of them just snatched it and ran. The players killed 3 of the bad guys easily, taking some superifical bullet shots, but no damage. The one with the money threw it back to them and ran, the 5th one hit their head on a car and was knocked out. Then the players loaded up into the car and headed out.When they got there they wined and dined with Goomba. He had 3 very large guards, one of which tried and failed to hide doing a line of synthcoke. Nothing of note happend except for Z pulling the heheheha after the Asshole Exec told about how he is planning to bulldoze some poor housing to build a large building to heckle the poor from atop. Zs laugther lead him to take a liking to Z and invite him to the opening.

They entered the cage and battle ensued. Z hit an opening headshot but wiffed the damage. Asfoldo swung back and hit him. But then with one hit cheered on by the others he cracked Goombas skull, breaking his artifical voice as well, and causing him to inject himself with stim and surrender. Using this cover Ashley and Ellie slipped out the two doors. Z disarmed Goomba, then smashed him in the skull again causing him to start dying.

One of the guards kicked the door open and shot at Ashley twice, the second one shot Bob point blank, then had his gun stolen by Bob and turned against him. The SMG crackhead laid down supressing fire and killed the Exec guy. Ashley stabbed shotgun guy in the back and Ellie failed to search for a key to the safe and ended up just taking it. Asfoldo skittered over to his sword then got bonked again, took two swings then fell over on his sword, causing a bomb to start counting down.

Ashley started up the AV, Z took out the shotgun guy, and Ellie failed to swing the safe at the SMG guy and ate a bunch of lead. They all mamaged to get to the AV (with one of the shotgun guys whose spine they messed up) and started lifting off. The SMG guy opened fire and the Disarmed Shotgun Guy tried to take someone else with him. But he himself got pushed off was hanging on for dear life, before being blasted point blank in the head by Bob. Then the building blew up, with 2 explosions a little larger then a normal grenade in size.

Everyone landed at base and started healing and put the guard in prision. Then they managed to open the safe they stole, finding cash along with documents. They talk about the "Arasaka Job" (Arasaka is a very powerful millitary company based in japan who was a main side in the fourth corporate war) where they stole part of "Soulkiller". Arasaka stole it and "Soullink" back but the Brits kept their information on "Soulkiller". Now there was also a letter adressed to "Liv" consoling her loss and hoping she heals well. Then it gets to business saying that the Tea plant that was attacked earlier this week is going to be the new home of "Soulkiller" and "Liv" the new boss

Starring: Chance as Ellie and Joe as Ashley

They know soulkiller is in the old tea plant they attacked. So they went to chances boss for their intel from the last raid. So they plan their attack in the middle of an acid rainstorm, buying umbrellas. They also borrowed a trailer and two sniper rifles, getting a suppresor for one of them.

When they got there they hid their car, they also hid Reko nearby to evac them if need be. They spent a quarter of an hour, half the storm, digging their positions. They shot the first guard in the windpipe, preventing him from telling his friend, then finished him off with a second headshot. They hit the second guard just as he saw his friend. Then took their time with the second shot, giving him enough time to return fire with his unsupressed sniper. Now known, Ellie started popping tires while Ashley snuck around back.

Ashleys search got her loot from the turret they fought 2 weeks ago, a near miss from a still live turret, and a sniper rifle. Back out front a guard inside grabbed the first dead mans rifle, then shot at Ellie and Bob with a rocket launcher, which they narrowly dodged. Back in the back Ashley cleared some rubble from the raid two weeks ago with a grenade, then crawled in. Just as she got through Bob rammed the car throuugh the front gate with Ellie inside the gun.

Inside was a pissed off Liv and a Tech. The tech ducked and fled behind a cafeteria counter, while Liv acrobatically jumped onto a table with a metal brain and important papers while firing at and missing Ashley. Ashley shot back, lodging a bullet in Liv. On the other end Ellie blasts the head guard with the railgun, while Bob gets into combat position. Ashley severs Livs left hand and she responds with armor piercing pistol fire. Bob blasts a guards head off, and Ellie breaks the head guards shield while he breaks her bulletproof glass bubble. Ashley tries to grapple Liv again but misses and takes more armor piercing pistol bullets while Liv stims back to health. Ellie and the head guard autofire back and forth, and Bobs pistol fire is parried by the other guard. Ashley fries Liv with her spear and is missed by autofire. Bob shatters the other guards head and them races to go help Ashley. Ellie blasts the head guard with a shotgun. Ashley knocks liv to low health and then takes a full autofire volley, lighting her on fire. Bob dead sprints in just in time to see Liv sucumb to her wounds, and put out Ashleys fire. Meanwhile Ellie and the head guard shoot back and forth, and the guard grabs the other rocket, hitting the wall, damaging chance and heavily damaging himself. He survives a crumpet cannon shot to his well armored helmet, then rips the helmet off and takes his own life to avoid spilling secrets.

Once the battle was done they looted cash, and some gear, soulkiller, and the tech. They found that soulkiller is a program that fries a persons brain and turns them into an AI, which can then be put back there or somewhere else. It also has a small chance to fail, simply frying the brain. Ashley decided not to use it for that reason

Finally lucky Bob goes on a succesful date. A Brave Lawman named Valentina Cogburn. She gets him into the freaking executive zone to drink in the business lounge of the country club. She brings her friend Jackson Abbed, a praticing muslim, hella rare in night city. He's her partner, and is like a little brother. On top of the alcohol, she likes smash, a lot, maybe synthcoke too. As the date draws to a close she drunkenly talks about how she values love, love for partner over here (noogies), love for her family, and love . . . for you Bob, here's my number lets do this again.


Session we done by now just wrapping up loose ends: Date 2 bob takes her to a conveyor belt "sushi" place nearby, where the entire time she is eating one handed while recovering from a bullet wound. He asks about how she got them into execs country club being a lawman. She tells about how she and her partner saved the butts of a trauma team exec and their own trauma team backup from a crazy cyberpsycho with two heads in little europe. Ever since then they have had an open invitation to the Exec zones country club on this dudes tab. It turned out she and her partner are on duty for Little Europe. They had been the ones to save Bob and co from the cyberpsycho, small world huh. They keep talking and she gets onto a cyberpsycho boosterganger who had killed her little brother, and had inspired her to join Max Tac. He has two similarly cybered up friends who are with him in hiding, but once she finds them she intends to physically rip his face off. She then talks about how behind love, she also values vengeance.

After you stole soulkiller, the queen was in need of maintenance. Without soulkiller there she died. That coupled with your attacks on this relatively small corp caused it to collapse. The gang portion still exsists full of knife weilding bruvs, all led by the guy in the muscle car that chased you. Meanwhile the small company side of things turned the remaning tea farms into normal farms, which are still really valuable.

You all started to recover, bob had that first good date. Then a few days after the soulkiller raid you talked to Reeko (your pseudo-boss and the buildings owner). She told you how the brits are seeming to collapse into a small street gang and some sort of farming microcorp. This was in the lobby of the five story building. The lobby itself has 2, 3 story tall windows on either side of the door, with another 2 story tall window above the door. It also has balconies for the 2nd and 3rd floors to look out of. You asked her what your next mission is going to be, and she told you it looked like you won. Then she took a sniper round through the side of her head.

Before you could process this, 4 heavily armored arasaka mercs burst through the windows alongside a teargas grenade. They had just recently found some unathorized top secret soulkiller technology coming from the combat zone, signals no longer blocked by multiple yards of concrete and dirt, and where here to take it by force.

You reacted quick. Bob winged one in the shoulder, Ashley jolted em with her spear, and Ellie shot one square in the chest while wiping teargas out of her eyes. They barely flinched as they proceed to open fire.

You all took a couple bullets as you dove for cover. Ashley saw that this was a battle they couldn't win right now. Suddenly gunfire rang out from the balcony. As Cheeseburger and keiji (rekos brothers) shot at the assailants from above Ashley swooped in and grabbed her spear. As she and Bob ran towards the stairs another sniper shot rang out from above, blowing off keijis left arm.

Between the gas and the gunfire Ellie doesn't hear to run away and fires off a few more rounds from cover. She does manage to shoot one who took the bulking of the supporting fire, felling him with a couple rounds in the ribs, then was promptly shredded the combined autofire of the other 3.

The assaulters reloaded and ran upstairs. Ashley and Bob got shot at more on the fifth floor, then burst onto the roof. They encountered Cheeseburger dragging a wounded Keiji to the AV. Then Ashley took another round from this sniper, blowing off a leg. Bob threw both Ashley and Keiji over his shoulders and brought them to the av, as Cheeseburger started it up and flew off.

The arasaka reclemation squad found the bootleg soulkiller on the fifth and final floor, and after their egghead found it was of no use, chucked it out the window. Bob tried desperatly to save Ashley, but between the blown off leg and the previous hail of gunfire, he too died that day.

The building itself was taken over by a gang, and turned into a fortified hangout. Bob and Cheeseburger (and Z) are the only survivors. Now Bob is a principled gun for hire, with a score to settle with arasaka.
