Summary
Went to a Drone wars tournament held in the horizon studios, joined in and fought other riggers in an arena.
Background
Horizon wants to launch a new combat reality show on their Horizon Family network. Unable to show real people being shot on children's television, they decide to have drones fight for the amusement of the masses. They bring Karon Khaos, a former Trideo Host and ageing producer out to host it - and then network execs realise that the Horizon Academy Rigger All-Stars getting brain damage on live trideo might not be a good idea. Instead, they call in a group of runners. They also invite several corporations to enter teams, as part of a co-branded advertising push.
The Meet
The Runners meet Karon Khaos, the host of the show, in a dingy meeting room at Horizon Studios Seattle. They agree to compete, are informed of the rules, and sign a waiver. Each of them goes a code name: Canter as the Magnificent Mare, Dr. Lollipop as Doctor Steel, Grasshopper as Pizza Joe, and Maire as the Mysterious Stranger. Canter is decides the team name by default after no one else offers up an idea, and so the Runners are entered as the 'Mustangs'.
The Plan
The runners decide not to cheer, until before the final round where they sneak a look at the opposition - Canter's task spirit then tags it.
Aftermath
We defeated the final boss which was an a Prototype Horizon Spider Tank Drone after some while of bouncing bullets off of it and oppression fire it was handled.
