That's what I'm talking about. With my control pool (20+!), and a T# of
a -1 (LOVE that -6 from my VCR cyberware), I will get almost all success
-es. Even if he's a rigger, odds are I am going to get more than 4
actions (is an action different than an attack? It seems that the
rigger gets however many "attacks", instead of actions. However, the
drones count as attacks (I believe), and the passengers are limited to
however many "actions" they roll.

Could you please explian how you got a 20+ control pool?

Okay, I might have given the wrong impression. Same results, though.
6: my natural reaction
6: + from my VCR3
2: Datajack link. (in car only)
1: Integrated controls (needed in conjunction with datajack link)
4: Autopilot (p.114 "if the character controlling the vehicle has access
to a Control Pool, the Autopilot rating is added to the Control Pool and
refreshes with the pool")
That adds up to 19 (that's it? I thought it was more :)

Also, don't forget that you get 1-3 dice added to your gunnery/firearms!
Rigger screw #11: Your sensor level is added to your skill when attackin
g. This helps.
Does this give anyone any ideas? This is why I have problems with only
getting to move 4 actions, as opposed to 17 attacks (or so...hate those
1's!)
Hope this helps. Handy reminder from your favorite riggers,Brodie & JEW
