Modified Remote Gear, according to the GM (hell, they give dogs Reflex Wires.
Just amkes them less controllable).

Hell, we had TWO Panthers and the LAWs did more damage....
Check the Armor and Body Ratings of the Behemoth. Good thing the GM just
decided that they were Rigged and not Armored as well. Never know how the corp
would find ways around the 'Cyber-psychosis' that occur when animals are
cybered. Particularly with Aztech, I'm sure a mage could design some sort of
spell to control it. Control Thoughts/Control Actions type mana spell maybe?
Who knows, but it makes a good plot device and keeps things interesting (hell,
we don't know what the government is doing behind our backs nowadays. Who
knows would a mega-corp would try?)
