have some sort of imaging system, and hence a camera of some sort. If
a smartgun only projected a DOT onto the target, it would be no better
than a fraggin laser sight, 'cept it would cost more and you would lose
essence for it. Having some form of camera/imaging device would be the
only reason you would need wires running into your nervous system/up to
your goggles. That's also the only way you could really avoid shooting
your friends.
As for shooting around corners etc... The house rule we've always
used is a +2 TN modifier, just like the one mages get while astrally
perceiving and getting two sets of sensory input at once. This gives Sams
a big advantage. While the TN modifier brings down accuracy, it means you
can poke a gun around a corner to see if the coast is clear, and the only
hits you could possibly take are to the hand or the gun. (Unless of course
the guy down the hall has a Panther Cannon and decides to shoot straight
THROUGH the wall... ;) )
Well, that's my 0.02Y worth...
