Well limiting the edges and flaws will help, but one of the best ways to
lower the power level of the game is to limit the availability and such of
gear they can start with. This works with cyberware as well as other gear.
You may want to also limit skills to some maximum level...say three or so.
This promotes more of a wide range of skills, while limiting how badass
they can be at any one thing. Attributes will have to be looked at as
since they don't have alot of points they need to spend elswhere you may
see alot of 6's for atts. Do what you think best as far as this goes, but
be aware of it.

Yeah right. ;)
