Ok looking at working on adding a cyberware section to my character sheets... But how is modularity handled in regards to essense? Basically what is the price of a "Modular Plug" is what I'm looking for.

Or is assumed that you have to buy a full limb to make it modular? Basically if I want Kid-Stealth (Raptor Legs), do I need to buy 2 Lower Legs as modular (2 * 12,000 * 1.1 = 26,400 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/nuyen.gif) ) and then buy my Raptor Legs (another 25,000 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/nuyen.gif) )

Now lets go higher grade, I want Delta Grade Lower Legs (.45 ess instead of .9 ess) brings it to 264,000 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/nuyen.gif) . Now do I need to get Delta Grade Raptor Legs (250,000 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/nuyen.gif) ) as well, or are they still plug and play for anything?

So how can you seperate the Modular Plug from the Cyberlimb? And then do the plug-ins need to be at least that grade or higher? If they have to be that grade or higher, then they're not really "Universal Plug-Ins". But if they are Universal then once I pay for one Modular Deltagrade Hand (66,000 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/nuyen.gif) ) I can get any cyberhand I want as standard grade and only suffer the .125 Essense loss.

--------------
EDIT: Rereading, and coming up with something different now...

To have modular Lower Legs, you need to have Full leg replacement with Modular Cyberlimb modification... So, this comes to (2 * 20,000 * 1.1 = 44,000 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/nuyen.gif) ), then you can get the Raptor Cyberlegs for 25,000 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/nuyen.gif) ....
Total Cost: 69,000 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/nuyen.gif) and 2 Essense.
And since you are paying for more limb then you can modularize... Then there's really no issue (Unless you full cyber up, and Modularize your torso (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) )

So now to save me essense and Nuyen, I need to talk my GM into letting me just get Raptor Cyberlegs as a Lower Leg Replacement (no modular)...
