I have Connected Lvl II for Sphynx's Mercenary game. This means I can buy and sell weapons at their list price, so I have an issue.

I control an important flow of nuyen into the group. Living on the street, flow of money=skimming. I just need to know how much to skim off the top.

I was thinking 25% fo the list price. Normally the group is going to pull something like 40% of the total price from a dealer, right? So they're making 35% more than they should, if I take the 25% cut. What do you guys think?
