Like my previous threads, this one is for shamelessly sponging off the forum's collective wisdom to help me go from clueless to powergamer in an acceptable about of time. My laptop is down, my PDFs are unavailable, and I really have not much to do but beg for your wisdom with my thumbs.
So. Firearms. Best friend of everybody with an enemy. Teach me of the weapons of the future. What types of firearms should I be using for which characters in which situations? Are there some types that are completely inferior? Of the useful types, which specific weapons do you recommend for character creation? What about acquisition in play? Drone loadout vs personal? What modifications and accessories are mandatory, recommended, or traps? What situations call for ammo other than Stick and Shock? Other tips on the collection and use of death projecting devices? |
