Now this IS wierd because I'm looking at pg 33 now and dont see any of this.
There is a chart at top with "spellcasting talent, summoning talent, astral
sight, and poor link". There are 4 sections under "magical edges and
flaws"
that start on pg 32. I see a "bad karma" a "bonus force points"
(continued
to pg 33) a "focused concentration", a "magic resistance", then
"Misellaneous edges and flaws" headind with stuff like cortex bombs and
hunted. Have there been more than 1 version of the companion? I didnt think
there was a SR1 companion or was there? I bought mine in a hobby shop last
month. It says its copyright 1996... I dont know, If it does say the quoted
material above in the official book then I am incorrect in saying that a
sammie can take magic edges. As for the the other edges/flaws they are still
easily abusible but if the eratta above is true then the edges/flaw table is
much less nasty than I thought.
