I think the problem might be more about Drones and Heavy Weapons.

Neither are great for very stealthy or social missions. Nor is it easy or
recommended to sneak them into high security areas or across manned or
patrolled borders.

As a player a single Autocannon drone (or whatever it is called, I play more
than I run now - a gun in an armored turret that can move along a rail in
the ceiling) is the main reason non-magickers have to have assault rifles
and APDS instead of just using a silenced pistol and possibly submachine gun
like they would prefer.

If the enemy has a rigger and you don't odds are you are screwed unless you
have a heavy weapon specialist or magicker to take it out.

What have the street campaigners done when the group first met a drone? I'm
curious.
