Okay I'm a bit of a bind, I'm surrounded by Lone Star in hostage situation. Basically the job was to break into some data storage site and make an extraction but my Sammy went and shot someone and my Decker got their brain fried and the alarms alerted The Star and now I'm surrounded got a dead Decker and my Sammy is out of commission due a sleep spell(don't worry I geeked the mage that did it) but now I don't know how to get out because one fo the hostages is my Client, a jerk named Hans Brackhaus and who is telling me to keep stalling for time but how long can I keep this up before Lone Star sends in SWAT? Can anyone give me any ideas how to get out of this?!

So I'm planning a 5e one shot soon and I've decided to basically take some of the character archetypes and just rebuild them in chummer. It's going pretty ok. However I've noticed for some archetypes it gives options that just aren't a thing.

The first I noticed were for the street shaman he apparently has the conjuring skill at 6. But from what I can tell there is no conjuring skill. There is a conjuring skill group but the archetype is very clear about it being the indivudal skill conjuration. I assume they actually mean summoning. Now why I don't think it's the skill group is well when it is a skill group it says skill group.

Now the second I noticed is the combat mage. He's a human who is apparently a troll poser. I don't think that's a thing. We have Orc and Elf posers but no Troll. Honestly might just change this one to orc poser

There are probably some other mistakes I guess I've not caught yet I just wanted to ask am I missing anything about these?

in third edition normal firearm shooting at a vehicle halves the power and decreases damage code by one level. i dont understand the wording. if a weapon is using avm or apds does it ignore only the decrease of damage code or both the decrease of weapon power and damage code?
