When Shadowtech came out, one of my players wanted to get his PhysAd's
sword Dikoted. I made him make a trip to Dusseldorf (the group was in
Munich at the time), and negotiate with the company that had just released
news of the process. He had to pay through the nose for the sword, plus he
had to file field reports every time he used the sword, basically being a
beta tester for the corp. Then there was the train ride....

Never get separated from the group. Never let the GM separate you from the
group. Hee hee.
