QUOTE (Grinchy McScrooge @ Sep 1 2012, 05:46 AM) I sense an interesting story behind this one. Care to share...? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beret.gif) Just an idea I had for a game I might run, if the opportunity presents itself. High-risk extraction of clients, runs to hack corporate data and find evidence as "Discovery," depositions (much more thrilling when the councellors have wired reflexes and cyber-spurs in addition to their rapier wit), that sort of thing. |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/nyahnyah.gif) Just something I thought of when reading up on the Ancients, how often their colors were noted, and the Elven Traditions they imported from the Tir. :/ |

You know, I've just had a terrifying thought...
There's nothing stopping them from running around in big stompy 'mechs, just by modding the anthroform propulsion method of mobility to their bikes... Or other vehicles... |

Ooh, which book? I figure quad 'mechs are better than upright ones for that anyway. More stability, lower profile, basically a tank on legs. |

A well developed, organized and funded street gang turns to building stompy robosuits? You guys have yet to see the horrors I can unleash with Motorbikes and Overmodding! |

Can you cite that? Also, I don't think there are rules for vehicles going hull down yet. Or for that matter, for making taller vehicles more easily shot than low-slung ones. |

Did Empire Strikes Back teach you nothing?! Quad mechs, no matter how impervious their armor happens to be against blasters, are vulnerable to tripping at which point their armor ceases to exist! -- 2038: I am not allowed to attempt to recreate any weapon present in Fallout 3 or Fallout New Vegas that does not already have a direct representative in Shadowrun. |

2038e: I'm also not allowed to heavily modify a Ford Americar, call it a Highwayman, and dare anyone to try and stop it.
