and now for my 2 nYen on the subject of bioware:

i introduced bioware after a year of gaming with the same people, and they
were beggin' for it all the time...i gave it to them after one shadowrun
by "paying" them not with money, but with a slip of paper...


...the paper had an address on it, followed by a password...the address
was in the corporate section of bellevue (yaknow, the companies that can
afford grass lawns and stuff)...they went there at night and went to the
back entrance and gave the password (they were instructed to do this by
the fixer)...

they were admitted into a lab facility waiting room, where they were told
that the company was looking for "test subjects"...i only gave them access
to some of the things in shadowtech...


the idea seemed to work pretty well...and the runners were pissed at first
getting paid with just a piece of paper...they didnt know it was a
shadowclinic until they got inside!!
