If the PCs have any sense, they'll have over 20 SP on most locations (26-28 easily, in completely unnoticeable and unobtrusive armor, if you get the Chromebooks). You can get +4 BOD with just the basic book, and regular Skinweave (SP 12) literally makes you impervious to 9mm and smaller rounds (2D6+1), which makes combat a drag.Ĭombat is supposedly lethal - except its not when you're wearing armor, especially stacked armor. Give caps (+6 is good) for starting skills it forces a realistically diverse skillset on PCs. A solo with REF 10, BOD 10, a bunch of mods, Combat Sense +10, Martial Arts +10, and SMG/Rifle/Pistol +10 is just boring. I suggest removing all the archetypes' special abilities - most (Rocker, Cop, Corp) can be replaced with regular social skills, Combat Sense is just overpowered, and some (Netrunner, MedTech, Techie) can be turned into a skill everyone can learn equally.īasically, any time a netrunner wants to do something online, if you're using the actual system, you can just go tell your other players to go out for fast food for an hour, because they won't be doing anything. (Solo variants from other books, like Power Armor Jockeys etc., are also playable.) Netrunners would be good, but netrunning is too cumbersome (and stupidly designed 2013 had a better system for it)) to run concurrently with regular gaming. Only solos are worth playing, because their special ability (Combat Sense) is superlative.
