First glance...OUCH!!

Second glance...Ouch, but only a Body of Two (tabs screwed up the viewing,
but I think I drew that over properly)? Seems then like anything that can
get past the twelve points of armor would pop the ED-209 pretty quickly.
But still, to get past vehicle armor of 12, you have to have a base damage
code of 13 or better, which eliminates 90% of the weapons available to
shadowrunners. As an "Urban Pacification Unit" this would be outstanding.
As a combat unit, it would probably suck simply because in a war I'd expect
heavier weapons, probably things like LAWs and the like.

BTW, what's the price on that bad boy? Seems like it would likely be very
expensive.

I think I'll forward that back to my home address and make plans to sick
one of those (or something similar anyway) on my players.
