I think it fits in nicely with my Riot/Bar Fight/Ganger deck.

I guess my real attraction to UB relates back to an SR:RPG session a
couple of years ago. The players, being as all good players should,
threw the GM for a loop so he wasn't quite prepared for us one night.
Plus it had been a couple of sessions since there was any combat. So
the characters ended up in a "sports" bar where all we had to do was
get from one side to the other and all drinks were on the house :-)
Of course we had to trade in all of our weapons for cattle prods and
guns with rubber bullets. Anyway you get the picture....

Also, just so it isn't a complete waste of a message... I haven't
seen anything on this yet. Are runners which have Cyberware built in
(such as Uncle Joe) considered to already have the appropriate essence
loss? In the case of Uncle Joe I can only put 4 more points of
cyberware on him.

This came up in one of the first threads on the list.

Characters with cyber included in their cards (i.e. Uncle Joe's
chipjack or Ravage's wired reflexes have them for free.) There's
nothing printed on their card that says their essence is any less.

Besides, how would a player who has Uncle Joe, but didn't get a
Chipjack 2 card know how much essence it would actually cost?
