The ShadowHaven successfully infiltrated a Spinrad Global cybernetics factory in Auburn and sabotaged their initial batch of Flaming Cyberhead augmentations.
Harp corp were trying to evict a bunch of ork out into the street. The Johnson hired the party to get rid of them
 
==Background==
 
Spinrad Global has a manufacturing facility in Auburn that researches, tests and produces new cyberware augmentations.  Mr. Johnson (likely fronting for Evo) is concerned about the potential loss of market share to Spinrad Global's newest product, the Flaming Cyberhead, which will launch in the next few days.


==The Meet==
==The Meet==


The Johnson turned out to be a satyr flanked by a mix of troll and ork guards and chose to host the meet in the middle of the large nature preserve out on MacNeil Island, likely to take advantage of the high noise in the area.  The Johnson expressed how dismayed his employers were to the potential loss of market share to this interesting new piece of cyberware and offered two ways to sabotage the initial batch: either modifying the formula of the propellant in the casing or to modify the formula of the alloy used in the flame valves.  Technical details for both were included in the Metalink provided by the Johnson.
They all meet up in the underground on what presumely is the Johnson's house. He told the party about how some dwarfs have taken over their estate and Harp corp (''dubbed as "The worst" from now on'') would be evicting them.
Usagi, Pandora and Ice decide to take Pandora's convertable to the estate, while BB took a van to the estate because she didn't want to be in the sunlight.


The Johnson initially offered 16,000 nuyen each for the job, but the team worked him up to an even 20,000 nuyen each.
==The Legwork==
 
The Johnson summoned a VTOL to pick him and his entourage up, allowing Dandy and Scrabble to peek inside and see Evo-branded accessories decorating the VTOL.


==The Legwork==
Arriving on screen first was Usagi and Ice Cube. Once at the location there was a dispute with a bunch of goblinoids and Hard Corps. Usagi quickly tried to sneak up to Hard Corps but the Johnson was about to shout and give away their position. Ice cube manages to calm down the Johnson before it could happen.


Cyro scouted the facility out in the Astral and spotted mana barriers, a magically active guard (Magic 3) and several watchers.
Once Usagi got the drop on one of Hard Corps he pointed a gun to his head and start to calmly negotiate with Hard Corps. During the negotiation a vlogger tried to record the scene, but was quickly dispatch when Ice cube shoot his commlink which prompt him to run away.


Paladin, Dandy and Cryo hit the pavement around the Spinrad facility and found a nearby hospital where former test subjects from the facility (and their unintended victims) including an ork with a chainsaw replacing a hand and lower arm.  The locals would be glad to see the facility either leave or slow down to no longer have to deal with cleaning up after the released test subjects.
After a long negotiation Hard Corps surrender and wanted to walk away, but after a quick trickshot they were "persuaded" to stay. After that Hard Corps was tied up and the Johnson threw them into a closet in the estate.


Scrabble entered the Spinrad host and was able to pull a detailed security/engineering map of the Auburn facility, but was discovered early and left before doing more.
After this screen takes place, Pandora arrive at screen. Usagi pick up one of the comms and told Hard Corps That they have some of their men hostage. Hard Corps panic and redirect them to a hotline for hostage negotation and he was put on hold. The gang then decide to booby trap the estate.


The team decided to sabotage the composition of the alloy since they just needed to drop in some common bar metal into the furnace, and the metal was cheap to find.
Ice and Pandora decided to get rid of the fire escape to make the place more defendable. Just as they manage to break down the ladder, A truck containing one very piss off banshee park under the ladder. The ladder crash into the truck as BB step out of the truck looking quite ragged. After threatening the truck driver, BB help the rest of the team booby trap the estate.

After half an hour of booby trapping the estate, a man by the name of Mr. Benson came and start shouting at the Johnson. All of us silently agree to ignore them. Until Mr. Benson approach BB, asking them to stop what they are doing. After a few back of forth between the party member, they agreed after a successful bluff check got them to get paid 14k.


Scrabble entered the Spinrad Global host again to create a work order to allow the team to enter as technicians from a known company and arranged for burner SINs.  Dandy electrochromatically painted his truck to look like a work vehicle from the known technician company.
The team decide to infiltrate Hard Corps compound and beat up their backup so they won't disturb the estate.


==Interlude==
The team make its way inside the compound pretty easily. They manage to make their way to the garage where the team of Hard Corps who was supose to be backup is currently located. The party decided to throw some flashbang and pick off the strangler.


Halloweeners pulled up alongside the team while they were in Dandy's truck on the way to the job and looked liked they wanted to carjack Dandy's truck. Dandy pulled her sword and tried to intimidate the gangers into leaving them alone, but it was the teamwork provided by rear grenade launcher (named Cletus) on Dandy's truck that literally started smack to the Halloweeners that finally made them back down.
So they did just. Surprisingly to no one, every guard was suprised as Pandora sprout a bunch of vines which curl around most of them, immobilizing them. After 2 well placed flashbomb most of them were reeling on the ground and gave up. We then tied them all up and blew their vehicles up with some Heavy Explosive bomb and return to the Johnson.


==The Run==
==The Run==


Infiltration of the facility went exceeding smooth with Paladin's smooth talking and the work order. The team was given access to an engineering room to fix their cover story (printers? displays?) and Cyro had the sense to flick one little button to turn off all the cameras in the facility.  Paladin only had to worry about the physical guards to drop in the metal bar and alter the composition of the alloy.  Scrabble actually fixed what the work order asked for and graciously accepted an offer to look at (and copy) some specs on new cyberware being worked on.
Went very well. There was no hiccup, no one died and the runner got more than what they were promise for.
 
Exfiltration was even easier as their exit was covered by one of the guards doing a "Hold-My-Beer" impression of Tony Hawk from the second floor of the facility and landing badly on a piece of machinery below.  The team just checked out with the receptionist and left.


==Aftermath==
==Aftermath==


The Johnson is happy, SpinGlobal's launch of their new cyberware failed because the skulls couldn't handle the heat from the flames and some

Summary

Harp corp were trying to evict a bunch of ork out into the street. The Johnson hired the party to get rid of them

The Meet

They all meet up in the underground on what presumely is the Johnson's house. He told the party about how some dwarfs have taken over their estate and Harp corp (dubbed as "The worst" from now on) would be evicting them. Usagi, Pandora and Ice decide to take Pandora's convertable to the estate, while BB took a van to the estate because she didn't want to be in the sunlight.

The Legwork

Arriving on screen first was Usagi and Ice Cube. Once at the location there was a dispute with a bunch of goblinoids and Hard Corps. Usagi quickly tried to sneak up to Hard Corps but the Johnson was about to shout and give away their position. Ice cube manages to calm down the Johnson before it could happen.

Once Usagi got the drop on one of Hard Corps he pointed a gun to his head and start to calmly negotiate with Hard Corps. During the negotiation a vlogger tried to record the scene, but was quickly dispatch when Ice cube shoot his commlink which prompt him to run away.

After a long negotiation Hard Corps surrender and wanted to walk away, but after a quick trickshot they were "persuaded" to stay. After that Hard Corps was tied up and the Johnson threw them into a closet in the estate.

After this screen takes place, Pandora arrive at screen. Usagi pick up one of the comms and told Hard Corps That they have some of their men hostage. Hard Corps panic and redirect them to a hotline for hostage negotation and he was put on hold. The gang then decide to booby trap the estate.

Ice and Pandora decided to get rid of the fire escape to make the place more defendable. Just as they manage to break down the ladder, A truck containing one very piss off banshee park under the ladder. The ladder crash into the truck as BB step out of the truck looking quite ragged. After threatening the truck driver, BB help the rest of the team booby trap the estate.

After half an hour of booby trapping the estate, a man by the name of Mr. Benson came and start shouting at the Johnson. All of us silently agree to ignore them. Until Mr. Benson approach BB, asking them to stop what they are doing. After a few back of forth between the party member, they agreed after a successful bluff check got them to get paid 14k.

The team decide to infiltrate Hard Corps compound and beat up their backup so they won't disturb the estate.

The team make its way inside the compound pretty easily. They manage to make their way to the garage where the team of Hard Corps who was supose to be backup is currently located. The party decided to throw some flashbang and pick off the strangler.

So they did just. Surprisingly to no one, every guard was suprised as Pandora sprout a bunch of vines which curl around most of them, immobilizing them. After 2 well placed flashbomb most of them were reeling on the ground and gave up. We then tied them all up and blew their vehicles up with some Heavy Explosive bomb and return to the Johnson.

The Run

Went very well. There was no hiccup, no one died and the runner got more than what they were promise for.

Aftermath

Harp corp got 4 of their own kidnap and a whole squad of them surrended after two flashbang, showing how incompedent they are as a company. So completely nothing change.
