I have to say that one of my favourite Scene where the people are in a
close range firefight is in DESPARADO!! When IN the bar the two guy are
shoting...well trying to, and they keep picking up guns with no ammo...Oh
how I laughed <gr>

"I hope I didn't rush anything," Kyle said.
Strevich shrugged. "Nothing thr next guy can't clean up."
"Pleasant image."
<gr> Name that quote!!

Is that the movie with the "guitar cases of doom"? Turning that
bunch into a (short lived) shadowrun team has been a very tempting idea
ever since i saw the movie last fall. And your right that the bar scene
is a good one. The floor is COVERED in weapons but neather one can find
one with ammo. they keep ending up face to face and pulling the trigers
simultaniously and getting nothing but *click*, rool away from each other
pick up a new gun, repeat for 5 minutes:).

Yup. It reminded a lot of us how some "bar fights" must have looked like
a few SR games my group ran.
(20 gang members + 4 runners w/ reflex mods. and Guardians = big mess
for owner)
