(a bit munchie I know, but I just make the systems harder ;-) ) Anyway,
The rules in Shadowtech, Cybertechnology, and VR 2.0 are in conflict (big
surprise). They way he reads the rules he can use the task pool to
augment his base computer skill for decking i.e. with a Computer = 6 and
a task pool of 2 he can roll 8 dice (essentially a Computer of 8). I read
VR 2.0 and it says that the task pool can be used for "tasks". It then
goes on to define tasks to be harware manufacture, off line progamming
and the like.
o.k so who's right, can he use that task pool to enhance his actions
while decking,or does it only help when he is sitting at home designing
new parts, code, etc. I really don't care (other than to know the
rules). I can always just make the system's harder.
thanks in advance
Bill
