Excuse me, but what idiot would get a MBW4 at standard cost? If you're at a
delta clinic, you get it as delta grade. Duh. In my game, thats as
possible as being able to be a grade 10 initiate

Well, since he's not a cyberzombie, none of this applys. And you only rot
if your dead. Cyberzombies are still alive.

If you can get enough karma to be a grade 10 initiate, as some people have
mentioned, and then survived the actual initiation (unless of course, your
just a munchkin who says "oh, I spend the karma and am now more powerful")
then good for you, but it still doesn't change what I was talking about.
