The security tally carries from RTG to LTG to PLTG, why not
from PLTG to PLTG? Especially when they're within the same
system. The only instance I know of where you can get rid
of your security tally is when switching from RTG to RTG.
'Course, I'm only about 1/3 of the way through VR2.0.
Which rule are you talking about?

Look in the back of VR2.0, in the Ares System they give as an example.
The tally carries between some of the different computers.
