] by eyeware. That is, no matter how much eyeware you get, you can only lose
] .5 essence. So if you have just normal cybereyes (not beta or alpha), thermo,
] low-light, camera, and mag-3 optics, the character only loses .5 essence, even
] though that grouping of cyberware adds up to about 1.6 or 2.0 essence. (no

Where did you come up with this Rule? I mean this is NOT a flame
but I have NEVER heard an interpretation like this before! As a
Samurai contemplating *more* replacements please tell me where it
says this???
