other side and say that due to a grievous physical shock/trauma Joe's Magic
ability has suffered, now after being healed so that his physical existance
as a whole (essence) hasn't suffered he now has a little room to play with
without further disrupting his magical well-being.
I'm not saying this is right. My earlier post was for well more for a "GURU"
response, i.e., "FASA says . . . on page so and so of book whatsits" that
this can or cannot happen.
It's just that I'd like to work from an "official"standpoint first before going
off into house-rule land.

Ultimate GM revenge upon his ultimate rules-lawyering munchkinistic PC's
GM -"Okay, I'm going to allow everything from 'Cybertechnology' into our game."
PC - "Alllllll RRIIGGGGGHHHHHHTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!! Robocrotch (the PC ;-> )
is gonna use his 15 contacts to get into Fuchi's Epsilon grade clinic and
become a VIRTUAL DEATH MACHINE(tm)."
GM - (Ready to start a new campaign that frowns strongly upon Munchkins)
"Ookkaayy, Robo enters the parking lot for the fake front of the clinic
and is greeted by Fuchi's latest success from the cybermantic vats.
A troll who has an almost full suit of heavy Milspec armor (specially
made from depleted uranium)which doesn't cover his forearms. The
forearm modification to the armor having been done so as not to interfere
with the cyber arm gyromounts and the miniguns being held by said
cyberarms, said guns being loaded with APDS Double explosive ammo.
Said troll quickly relates in a monotone voice (and all the more menacing
Because ofthe lack of expression) that Fuchi has decided to end it's non-
profitable relationship with Robocrotch.
PC - "Fine I'll have Spellchucker [pc mage] and Beaknose [ pc eagle shaman] to
geek him astrally!"
GM - "Fine they go astral and find him protecting by three Force (whatever is
suitable to the munchkinistic game plus 2 levels) free spirits that look
at Spellchucker and Beak Nose and start licking their astral lips"
And while you arrange for astral overwatch U.B.A.T. (Ultra-BadAss-Troll)
Goes full auto with AT LEAST your level of skilland a threat pool of 6"
"Now, about that low power, high quality ROLE-PLAYING campaign I've been
talking about starting . . ."
