OK question time again.
How are you all handling Fat Bacteria?
Our teams are using the rules in Corp. Sec. Sourcebook as is, no problems.
However, they have also come up with some interesting ideas.
We have a physad with astral perception that wants to carry a rod full of
fat-bac.
Once an astral victim is subdued, say in a fat-bac containment net - he uses
it to beat the wizard senseless - kind of like a no karma astral weapon/mage
blade.
I have been allowing this to do damage as a club.
As far as I can tell, the two astral forms cannot avoid each other, and so
are forced to collide, I reason that this would at least do some stun damage.
Now here's the next one - how about an fat-bac whip? No, not a monowhip,
that I won't allow, but a tapered plastic tube flooded with fat-bac?
I'm not sure about this one, again, since it can't really "cut" an astral
body, I guess it would just be a slightly less effective astral club, that
could also double as a material world whip.
Before anyone asks, yes, I have thought about letting this fat-bac moron get
a good dose of Strain III!! :-) <evil grin>
