G'Koth of the Narn Empire (by the way, nice name !!) , I think the problem
is people have power gamers and munchkins blurred together.

I can see your point and I agree with you. My group has 2 power player mages
and 2 low-level street samurai (low level as in each players view on
character development and not maximizing themselves but rather buying things
that fit into the character!). I have no problem GMing a group like this. MY
group is more magic intensive but that's not a problem. The average karma
that each character in my group has under their belt is between 350 and 400.
All of it came from ME !! And they earned every bit of it !!

I have only seen 3 PC actually die in my game (2 were accidental, one was me
punishing a very stupid player). I try to make the game enjoyable for them.
If it is fun for them then it is fun for me! I push them to the edge in ever
y gaming session. And they feed off of it and love it ! It is up to each
GM how they handle their group. I do think some people are jealous about
some of the things that you and others in your group have as characters. I
think that your GM MUST have made you work for every bit of karma so it is
just a part of character development for everything you have and these people
need to overcome their problems.

Don't take the munchkin stuff personally. I don't think it applyies to you
at all !! Better cataegory, Shadowrunner !

Keep up the good work so far dude !!

Can we please get off the topic of munchkins ?? It is getting rather old !!!



I do beleive that we belabored this munchkin point to death and it should
stop soon !! It is waisting bandwidth is nothing else !!
