Cyberlimb House Rules

I was wondering what House Rules people have come up with for Cyberlimbs in their campaigns to make Cyberlimbs something that charcters might actually want...

Anyways, here are some that I've been thinking about putting in...

- Cyberlimb Body/Strength/Agility and possibly Armor does not use capacy within the limb... (I'm leaning towards including Armor just to keep the Cyberlimb Enhancement rules as simple as possible.)

- A Cyber Torso is only needed if a character seeks to raise a Cyberlimb's Stat above his unmodified Racial Cap.

Cyberlimb Questions

- Ok, I've never quite been sure how to handle Cyberlimb Armor, surely it isn't meant to simply stack with normal armor, perhaps its supposed to be averaged first? Then a single Cyberlimb with Rating 4 Armor will give 1 Point of Armor after rounding...

- How do people interupt the partial limb rule on page 335 that states that a partial limb's stats only applies to tests involving that limb? Is there really any reason to buy up Body or Armor for a partial limb other then for damage tests against that limb only? (I would assume something akin to sticking your cyberhand into a meat-grinder.)

- And do people give the extra Physical Damage box for partial limbs?

The cyberlimb rules have always driven me insane...
