First of all -metahumans-...To those whom it may concern,(and even
those whom it doesn't concern-and even those who aren't concerned with
anything) some people are a wee bit upset about this Priority 4 for
Metahumans thing. Being the type of person who often enjoys playing
non-human characters (Pointy ears, ugly as sin, 10 feet tall, can
bench press you AND the car you're tryin' to get away in) I would be a
little concerned at first too.... But if you think about it, it's a
good way to keep the Metahuman population down. Metahumans, especially
big ones(see freindly description above) happen to be a small minority
on the streets...and to keep it the same in the game, Priority 4 =
Metahuman.
Of course those of you who still don't like that(namely everyone who
loves to get an advantage) try this. Since Trolls and Dwarves are the
"rares" put them at priority 4 and Orks and Elves who are more common
priority 3. Ta Da....another suggestion on the board to confuse everyone.
Since I'm unleashing such a brainstorm of unyielding wisdom to
everyone...OUCH!...Hey! I was just kiddin'..Geeez... I'll move on to
the "add the priorities up to 10" thing. FASA had this in their first
publication of Shadowrun and since then has taken it out to restore
"game balance". Believe it or not, they're right. If you think Meta-
humans get shafted now, wait'll GM's start runnin' that system...Our
party dropped to just the most stubborn Metahuman lovers who decided to
stick it out... I'm glad they did, just so we could compare them with
everyone else...The poor metahumans we're practically left in the dust,
even the Trolls didn't have an advantage to the guys with Tech 4, Att 4.
Anyways, that didn't last long.
Hasta Luigi
Guten Seeyoulateren,
The Eye of the Storm never brings the calm...
It merely unleashes the destruction.
