One of the prospective players for my SR campaign is upset because I won't
let him create his samurai with alpha/beta ware or Bioware. He thinks I'm
being unreasonable. I think that he should have to find that sort of thing
(and the black clinic to install it) as part of the roleplaying aspect of
the campaign.

He wasn't thrilled when I told him that any mage wanting spells at higher
than force 3 has to have magical theory. Another one of my house rules is
that spell formulas aren't normally sold at higher than force 3 - mages
wanting to go higher than that will have to create the formula themselves or
persuade someone who already has to part with theirs. Seemed like a good
way to suck off the magicians time and money while the deckers build new
decks and the samurai are getting their cyberware upgraded.

All of this information was on the sign up sheet I posted looking for SR
players.
