Ah, but a Rigger has a Movement Rating from Hell probably....and "ramming"
damage is based upon speed. We had this happen once, really big bad ass
spirit manifested over a concert hall in Denver...the party was part of the
security as they were expecting trouble like this. The rigger "ran over" the
being with the Panzer, which he had up to over a movement of 600....let's see,
that's 60D....yep, I don't really give a shit about "Immunity to Normal
Weapons" for spirits and vehicles...vehicles are NOT "Normal Weapons"....
