One of my players has had the poison breath bio-bit. The piece is remarkable
undocumented (what FASA forgetting something - never). It does give any
information if the piece actually manufactures the toxin or does it have to
be manually filled ?
If it does produce it how many "shots" does have and how long does it take to
recharge ? Also the user is immune to the toxin's effect. Could hyper be
used as a toxin ?

so far as a base house rule I'm using the Toxin sac has two shots, takes 24
hours to recharge (recreate the toxin) and can't use Hyper

Anyone else run into the same problems ?

Sounds like you have it figured out OK. You also get a increased
resistance to the toxin in question. (+2 dice to resist it I think, so hold
your breath for a little while after using it to avoid nasty side effects )

In fact I do. I also have questions about the Toxin Exhaler
in Dr. Dooms most current list of questions to Tom Dowd.

We should have an answer reasonably soon.
