Thanks for the tips. Due to the weirdness of PbP I am not rigorous about time
I can try and change that so that it is less confusing/more descriptive. I wi sometimes ask for rolls even if they aten't needed juat to keep you guys onyour toes a little. I think I am also going to try to wrap this scene up. It is getting bogged down in trivial actions.

I was looking up what Houston SWAT uniforms look like. They wear camo.

Hmm interesting. I would assume it is mission specific. There will be times when you need to look like cops still. You have a cop uniform.
You probably have an urban camo set and a woodland camo set.

Well I don't know how bigger cities do it; but here, all the "specialty" positions like SWAT are on "as needed" so the members operate as patrol officers the rest of the time.

Has the prisoner transport stopped after breaking, or is it still moving?

Any other details on the woman? Does she have a weapon, wearing attack gear, etc?

Yes, the post said she jad a kusari gama and was reaching into a satchel. Conner only got a brief glimpse through the eyes of a pigeon.

Many of those models can be used both ways. The two darts act as the prongs and can be charged without being fired.

At least the ones I saw used by my police department can.

I usually think of the hand-held version as a stun gun and the dart version as a taser. But either way is better than trying to shoot THROUGH the roof, I guess...
