What type of lifestyle templates do you find particularly appropriate for shadowrunners, keeping in mind lifestyles are typically used as hideouts and operation base, in addition to living?
I think that a good combination might be: Area 2 (Low) (to save on expenses: if one invests in security, has little to worry from burglars anyway) Comforts 4 (High) (if the lifestyle gets to be used as safehouse, far better to have it comfortable) Entertainment 4 (High) (as above; plus, one gets better matrix access) Furnishings 2-4 (Low-High) (this is another area where one can potentially save, unless the char really likes to be surrounded by beauty; Low is threadbare functional, Middle is adequate, High is stylish) Security 4 (High) (keep your equipment safe) Space 4 (High) (to keep in-house all those shamanic lodges, hermetics circles, and various shops) Plus, for a for a safehouse-like lifestyle, and some Flaws to cheapen it: Defensive Setup +0.10 Escape Tunnel +0.10 Inconspicous Housing +0.10 Privacy Screen 3 +0.30 Reliable Utilities +0.10 Cacophonous Neighborhood 0.05 Disgusting Neighborhood 0.05 Horrible View 0.05 Middle of Nowhere 0.05 Rough Neighborhood 0.15 if one also aims for magical powerhouse: Defensive Setup +0.10 Inconspicous Housing +0.10 Manaline/Power Site in the Basement +0.30 Privacy Screen 3 +0.30 Reliable Utilities +0.10 Astral Magnet 0.20 Bad Reputation 0.05 Haunted 2 0.20 Infestation 2 0.20 Middle of Nowhere 0.05 Or for a more comfortable lifestyle aimed to greater relax: Defensive Setup +0.10 Good Insulation +0.05 Privacy Screen 3 +0.30 Reliable Utilities +0.10 Watertight +0.05 Annoying Neighbors 0.05 Horrible View 0.05 Mail Leftovers 0.05 Middle of Nowhere 0.05 This isnt Sams Pizza 0.05 |
