1. If a character is involved in Negotations (the skill), would you apply Ettiquette as a comp bonus?

2. Having watched "Underworld" (again) for the silly eye candy, it does provide an easy justification for why a character might be interested in two gun shooting.

Anything as big and ugly as the oversized, naked, mutant rats charging down a hallway and is focused on eating your spleen with a side of relish -- putting as many rounds as possible into the target would be a good thing.

Now, admittedly, odds are you will never be attacked by a big, ugly thing in real life that a single gun couldn't take care of.

However, in SR, scenarios like that in the dark, gritty and usually silly lives of shadowrunners is all too common. :grinbig:
