Hey Dumpshock

I ran the first session of my new game tonight and it went fairly well if a little bumbling (due to my relative newness to gm'ing). The group went to meet the Johnson (this took the entire session: around 3 and a halhish hours) The big player mistake was the hacker who described himself as wearing flats when the group was going to a relatively upscale shadow establishment (a club popular among the upper echelons of the shadow running community in my home brewed city New Boston). Suffice of to say the group ended up finishing the meet without there hacker and at the end of the session the player decided he wanted to make a new character: a gunbunny


My group will now consist of:

1. A razor girl
2. A adept
3. A jack of all trades (his character is more conceptual but is just kind of all over the place skill wise [no hacking though])
4. A Face (who is only going to show up to half the sessions)
5. A Gunbunny

This means that I have no astral projection and no matrix...I am kind of happy, and kind of unsure as to what I should do.

So Dumpshock I need your help yet again.

Question 1: What do you do in a group that has little to no Matrix access (ie. not much more than data search)
Question 2: What do you do with a group that has little to no astral/magic abilities (the adept does not have astral perception and is unlikely to have it any time soon)
Question 3: Do you incorporate Matrix and Magical Defenses? If so how? (spirits for example, or security camera's that will report them to everyone)

Help me Dumpshock You're My only hope!
