I have my own ideas for the mechanics behind Physads.. but I guess
none of us will know until FASA puts the supplement out, eh?

A bit obvious, I guess. I've always shied away from the pumpers,
myself.. Not too terribly different from Tin Man, actually - better
skills is the real difference.
Can I assume his name is taken from a campaign you play in? I've
always had a helluva time naming characters..)

Do Handrazors count?
A bit cheap, honestly: 4 points of skill, and free stuff, and a 4/4.
I'd probably bump his cost up to 7Y. It does round out the "Runner
gets X free" group.

Wow. Goodbye Astral Sense.
Could see it being cheaper and allowing the player to look at one
*card* of target player. Turn the ability, not the Runner.
I think I mentioned Astral Perception (maybe Projection) in another
thread, as being playable on any Mage, Shaman, or Physad. Gotta
remember the abilities of the other folks.
