Speaking of PADS and Foci, do other people allow PADS to use Centering Foci?
It seems reasonable, but I seem to remember that they can only use Weapon
Foci according to the rules.

P.S. Please ignore if this is another flame war topic.

I won't treat this as a flamable question. I don't see any problems with
letting a PAD using a Centering Foci, but then that's just me.

I don't acknowledge any Centering Foci.

Well, I don't think this is a flame topic, so long as you acknowledge
the existence of centering foci :)

Awakenings blantantly states that PhysAds can only use weapon and
centering foci. It wasn't mentioned before Awakenings, as centering
foci didn't exist before then.

We allow PADS to use them here in the home game, as it is something that is a
viable option for them to use. Also, since the introduction of some powers
(like Distance Strike) have a range based on the PADS magic attribute would
you allow a PAD to have a power foci to extend the range of that power (s) ?

So far it does not seem like something to be flamed, unless the PAD has a fire
orientation with regards to their magic and it's manifestation. :)
