I've just started the second seasons of missions, GMing for my brother. I've only played PbP SR for the last year or so, after the Shadowrun Returns Kickstarter. I've never GMed before, so it's a bit overwhelming. By the same token, he's never played Shadowrun at all, so he's quite understanding when I'm baffled about how to (say) analyse the bandwidth of a signal between a hacker and his bike. (It doesn't help that he's an EE, and whoever wrote that section of the rules certainly wasn't...).

While I'm open to any advice, the biggest question I have now is about reward. I've read several times that Missions is underpayed, and I expect this to only cause more problems for a single-player team. Now, I know there are radical differences of opinion on payscales on dumpshock. I'm aiming for a single professional in a fairly trenchcoat-style set of runs, with fairly rapid advancement, at first at least. (I expect this character to get retired or killed fairly shortly; at one point in the first run, he was down to 3 in his physical track, with 8 still living enemies. Yeah...)

So, how do you guys think should the pay scales (both Nuyen and Karma) should be adjusted?
