I have a friend who loves nothing more than to have the fastest character in the game. If MoveByWire Delta were possible at char gen, no matter the twitch problems, he'd have it. Here's DocHoliday's starting speed stats/cyber, and why he made the choices.

Obviously, he starts as an elf with both Exceptional and Bonus Quickness Edges, in addition to 8 points Ambidextrous and 6 point Lightning Reflexes for a starting Reaction of 7(10)

Cyberware:

• Boosted Reflexes 3 (Beta)
• CyberEyes (Alpha)
• - Cyber Replacement
• - Flare Comp
• - Image Link
• - LowLight
• - Mag x3, Electronic
• - Thermographic
• Datajack (Beta)
• Smartlink II (Alpha)
• - Processor
• - Limited Simsense
• - Induction Pad (L)
• - Induction Pad ®
• - RangeFinder

Bioware:

• Cerebral Booster
• Enhanced Articulation
• Muscle Toner - 3
• SuperThyroid Gland
• Synaptic Accelerator II

Initiative: 14+5D6 (Additional +3 reaction in surprise situations)

Of course, alot of his essence went into being good at something other than speed, since he plays both the Sniper and GunAdept of the group. His goal was to get everything -except- the Reaction Enhancers due to their expense/essence levels. But to make sure he leaves 1.44 of the 9.00 points to get Alpha Reaction Enhancers at a later time via his level-2 Buddies still in DocWagon (He has the skillsets and background of an HTR team-member).

Of course, the biggest debate generated by this discussion previously was the Cultured Bioware and Beta Grade cyberware (all with availabilities less than or equal to 8, and availability is our only rule/limitation at char-gen) :P
