BORGS-

I'm just curious if anyone is using the borg rules I posted before, or some
type of evil borg-like baddie to torment and delight your players?

My players just love "Ol' Borgie" in my game. The very mention of his name is
enough to give the Razorboy a nervous twitch.

REPLICANTS-

>>>>>>[ Buddy O' mine, Walks-With-Beagles was scoutin' lower UnderVille
the
other day for a job, and he scanned this one dandelion eatin' razorboy with his
magick spectacles and sees somethin' real strange. Aside from the normal aural
trauma y'd expect from a chromed cowboy this guy had a body Walks just called
perfect. I axed him to explain, an' he said all of us got a lot of 'sludge'
that accumulates in our bodies and auras -- product 'o our heritage or
somethin' but this one guy, he doesn't have nothin'. Not a bit 'o extraneous
genetic material. Talk about wierd. ]<<<<<<

WOUND MODS-

Oops. :) I am using the S2 rules, but I have been counting the wound mods
against target numbers to resist more damage. (Not drain, mind you, I *did*
manage to see that rule).

Come to think of it, mods from PHYSICAL damage probably should not apply -- but
stuff like mental trauma, fatigue, and stun: that ought to apply as several
other individuals have already explained. Therefore, what I might do from now
on is only count mental dam. mods for resisting pain. I doubt it will make
all that much difference tho. :)

p.s. yes, there is nothing here about maragarine
