hi chummer's

one question about the not hight than aviability TN 6 stuff.
why should a sr character could not by a Vehicle repair shop?
the only thing he have to do is to go into a shop and buy the
working gear.

same thing with the
Portable Sim Recorder
Video Transmission unit
VCR II (if you could buy a Wired II)


and now somethink about the Shadowtech point.
if no player could by shadowtech stuff at the begining, no one
could start the game with memory skillwires(= skillwires using
headweare memory for storage of the skillsoft).
This is because you need a Encephalon to do this.

house rules:

i allow my players to buy all legal stuff, if they have not
implanted any illegal stuff. If this counts for you could go in
a bodyshop; if you have some illegal stuff you have to buy it
in the street and find a street doc to do the implanting.
and if the player have illegal cyberwear he could by all legal
stuff, with a aviability up to a level of his Etiquette(street) Skill.

also if someone play's a doctor(biotech =5+/biology =2+/cybertechnology =x)
he could buy legal stuff up to Etiquette(Street)+cybertechnology Skill.
and the character could also buy some of the illegal stuff(but not the
big stuff), what he can buy in such a case is up to the GM.


---------
and now a question to the character priority generation system.
we use the 10 point system (see Mechwarrior). With one limitation,
only Mages and Metahuman's(not if optional Meta is in use) could
assign two four's(A).
A 4
B 3
C 2
D 1
E 0
each character have ten point's to use.
example : Tech 4; Attributes 1;Skills 3;Race 2(use optional);(Meta Decker)
Attributes 3; Skill 3; Tech 4 (Norm Decker)
Magic 4;Skill 4; Tech 1; Attributes 1; (Mage)


What do you think about this system ???
