<DIV></DIV>>Well, yes ... that's the _theory_ behind shadowrunners ...
yes. But, in my
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>>general experience, players tend to go for the "kill
'em all", or "blow the
<DIV></DIV>

literally" approaches far more often
<DIV></DIV>

<DIV>"Mine" meaning I'm one of Damo's players.I'll be the first to agree
with what Damo's stated above, though we usually plan It differently (3/4 of our time is
spent planning). It just ends up that we go "...stuff It, It's taking to
long let's go frontal assault..", ok maybe not that bad but sometimes you just don't
plan for the unplannable It just turns out that way, do whatever the situation
dictates.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> Weve even been known for the suttelty of a box of hammers,
"...so are you the charismatic bad guy that we have to fight so we can move
onto the next place, If so, we'll just skip to the end & let's just kill
each other, if not can you tell us or point out the where abouts of the nearest bad guy
because It's probabely him, It would be much appreciated." hey It worked!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>If you look at my characters name Gruntius Maximus (yes, thats my real name) or
his street name Ground Zero (GZ) aptly named by my fellow runners for
being caught in these situations, literally on receiving end of said
drek & frag ups. But hey where not undisciplined players, we don't mean to bring a
whole city bock tumbling around our heavy fire support( contribution towards my nick
name), where just qaulified to be dumped in the deepest drek thrown at us
& where damn good at pulling through, one way or another.Hence where
shadowrunners. </DIV>
