Did it feel good to be a part of a full court press where it was your hoop

You're aware of the Chun Pak / Easy Eight situation? Someone wanted to put
that place out of business bad. To the tune of pressing nearly 200 gangers
from random areas up against a security force known to not have enough jobs
NOT to flood an area with everything they've got. Can you imagine the amount
of money it would take to get gangers to go on a suicide mission? All of
that as a feint to flood the farmlands with some wacko juice that must have
trashed the entire area but good.

The chip truth -- they are capable of a hell of a lot more than just
the combat armor seen the other night. They've been a clearing house for
urban combat weapons for a while now. When Lonestar and Knight Errant
went nuts a couple of years back, the cut all ties with them and, instead
of trying to work WITH them, they've been working on preparing to bid
for the contract themselves. Up until that point, they'd attempted to
stay within the law for all of the equipment needed. That is no longer
the case. What would you expect from a group of ex-/current shadowrunners with
budgets that need no more justification than "do we already have one of these"?
"Nope" "Ok, get use a case, lets test them out".]<<<<<
