Okay, now let's back up a step there. The rules in the books are the
guidelines that the roleplaying is often based upon (not always, admittedly).
This isn't much of a difference, at least IMO. If you've suffered the loss,
then options are looked at differently. And, folks, above all else, though
this isn't CP, it's still Shadowrun, and the world isn't always fitting into a
single picture that works for everyone.
