Hey,
I am very very new to this list, and I am also very very new to
Shadowrunning (about 5 weeks of GM'ing behind me now). I have of course a
million-and-one questions,...but they are all swirling through my mind.
The first one being; the NAV-DAT GPS (p. 294, SR3 sourcebook, street gear
chapter), can that be used for a person, or is it singly rigger material
(for use in a car or plane, etc.)? And if you can use it for a person, let's
say as an attachment to your headmemory, could you use it for the
aforementioned maps gotten from Johnson in a run?
I would see the B&E specialist crawling through the ventilation ducts,
meanwhile having the blueprint of the building in a NAV-DAT GPS format being
projected through an image link on his or her retina, while the GPS side of
things constantly portray where the runner is represented by a red blip on
the map.
