You might as well just throw in Armor Class, or M.D.C. for heavy armor or
weapons... Part of the appeal of shadowrun is that it's damage system is
just a bit different than other games.

Personally I happen to like the idea of a Resistance roll.

Again, call me a purist, but I like to at least keep a semblance of the
same rules for the game that I play.
