I havent been able to find an answer in the rules on whether you can buy pirated software at 10% normal price from the cracker underground at character generation. It seems like it would make quite a difference for hacker characters [would also make skillwires a lot more fun, btw] Anyone knows? |

Degrading software is a pain in the ass. Spells don't degrade, and bullets and cyberware have a shelf life of very much over a month. As for the idea of a roll before playing: I was just passing on what was passed to me. I really don't know what I would do until I do it, I'll know Friday, maybe.
