have the SRI version of the book, so if it's been answered there, just post it
up to me. Now, the question:
How should you run Impact armor against this weapon?
I have no problem with the (Str)S damage code, or the fact that if you hit
something/somebody too hard with it, the laser goes out of calibration and you
get to swing around a +2 Reach club, but shouldn't the laser be able to cut
through armor much more easily than your standard combat axe?
What I was thinking of was making the target resist against it with 1/2 or 2/3
of his Impact rating to reflect the laser. Really, right now, as far as I know,all you
get for the extra 2750 nuyen is the bragging rights of owning a laser
axe. Nothing else.
