a few mostly, opinoin answerable questions.
What kind of limits do GMs usually put on starting characters? I like
the nothing above Availability 6 rule in SR Companion. And I'm thinking
about using that. Does anybody use that, and with what success?
The only thing that concerned me is that it seems deckers and riggers
kinda get screwed with that. Anybody have some kinda formula with
Etiquette, Charisma, something like that to determine top Avail.?
Also, has anybody tried any of the groups from the back of Companion?
Like the Lone Star team or Doc Wagon team? I'm kinda interested in that,
but to me it seems kinda limiting.
Last thing, well, kinda. I had an idea, thought I'd like to share it
with the list. I recently got Threats, Portfolio of a Dragon, and Corp.
Shadowfiles. BTW I think these are great books. Keep up the good work
Mike! :) Anyway, seeing as how they're supposed to be files on
Shadowland, I was going to let any decker in the group have the chance to
download them. I figured it'd let them read them (not the Game info
though) without me just giving them to them. I figured some of the
earlier ones, like Shadowtech, or something would be more general info by
now, 5 years later, so they could just look at those, but the newer ones,
Atzlan, Awakenings, Corp. Sec., Corp. Shadowfiles, DS, Threats, etc...
could be downloaded. Sound cool? What does everyone think would be a
good test, or series of tests to get into Shadowland? Is it in a book
somewhere? I thought I remeber seeing a Ettiquette(Matrix) test
somewhere, but I could be wrong.
Thanks. :)
