a boo-boo in RBB2? nooooooo....
i have more or less noticed that this was not everyone's favorite sourcebook,
but i digress, did anyone else see that the price for the Harland-Wolffe
Classique yacht went from 3.5 million¥ to 250,000¥ and the Wandjina drone
price went from 20,000¥ to over 200,000¥?? i realize that it is a cutting-edge
drone and that most Riggers would want about half-a-dozen of the things, but
isn't 200K a little bit high for a drone? it's almost as much as a Hughes
Stallion.
but, as always, it's a GM call.
but i digress from my inane ramblings....

I have a feeling that's because prices in the RBB were thought up by the
author, while in Rigger 2 they're calculated using the points system, and
after that they can be adjusted a bit, but not all that much. For example,=

I've been busy updating my Chromebook Conversions to follow R2 stats, and
almost _every_ vehicle ends up costing either a lot more or a lot less
than the price I'd originally put on it.
