Subject: Cybertech typo?
Date: Wed, 12 Jun 1996 14:19:05 -0700 (MST)
I have a question concerning a possible typo in the Cybertech book on
the price of the Reflex Enhancer. (Or is it Reaction Enhancer? I don't
have the book anywhere close to check.) It lists the price as 60,000
nuyen. Should it be 60,000 nuyen per point of Reaction gained? The
table in the back of the book also lists it as 60,000 total. This would
mean that a +1 Reaction bonus costs the same as the +6 Reaction bonus.
This would make a big difference between 60K and 360K.

Reaction Enhancer. I'd say it's 60K per point, as that makes a lot more
sense than 60K regardless of the rating.

Also I would suggest you limit the raiting to 6 if you let it go up to
infinity corp cyberzombies with delta grade enhancers get ugly (reaction
+60 and still room for a little more cyberware! Who needs move-by-wire?).
