Well, to put it in perspective for you, our GM threw at us one of the
nastiest beasties you could imagine... It's been a running plotline for
quite sometime. This guy was creating Cyberbeast's, and came up with a
Cyber-Bandersnatch. Well, the Cybersnatch (no crude jokes, please) had
things like Move-By-Wire, Cybermancy, the works, including a Physical
Invisiblity Spell, so that even thermal couldn't pick up the camo'd
Cybersnatch...

Well, Mr. White (the character) had something that he the GM wasn't prepared
for... Ultrasound Sights on his guns, linked to his vision...!
Cyberweenies can really throw a monkey wrench in a GM's plans sometimes...:)
Ah well, just me 2 Nuyen's worth...
