As long as ev'ryone's yappin':
Physical adepts in SR can be really good at one thing: killing. If you're
playing Battletech, fine. If you're playing (that is, role-playing) Shadowrun,
then, unless your Character Conception (my favorite phrase...oughta get it on a
macro =O] ) calls for a PhysAd, play a rather specialized Mage.

Consider: Personal Combat Sense, Personal Increase Reflexes +4, Personal
Increase Intelligence +4, (on top of almost maxed-out reaction anyway) along
with a Weapon Focus with an anchored Damaging Manipulation spell and a truly
obnoxious armed combat skill. Throw in a few more versatile abilities such as
invisibility, flight, and ranged combat skills, and you have a much more
versatile and dangerous character. Hmmm, who could I possibly be talking about
here... ;->
