So my runners are headed for a wild life amongst the swaying palms trees and horrifically large bugs of the Awakened Pacific Rim. I see much time spent bobbing around in the ocean or hiding in shaded river inlets. All that whiz gear they bought is all well and good but now they're going to be very far from the nearest Stuffer Shack and industrial crates of CLP 2070.
Do any of you have a simple and reasonable way to represent or track weapon durability and the wear and tear a weapon suffers when it's not being properly cared for? It is a little simulationist for my tastes but I'd prefer a mechanic rather than their weapons breaking down whenever it's least appropriate. I'm already going to have glitches and critical glitches factor into their survivability. |
