While a Tranq-10 isn't the best thing in the world, one run my group and I
were going on, I had just learned magic fingers, and bought about 4000 in
tranq patches. While they didn't take down anyone I was able to slap the
patch on, I sure as hell was unnerving to have a tranq patch suddenly
slapped down on your neck and not know where it came from. Something else
NASTY, is to buy a bunch of stim-patches and use them on the opposition.
-SHIVER- I hope my GM never thinks of something like this.
