Was just thinkin' about a piece of gear that might be useful particularly to riggers of certain vehicles, especially aircraft. To cope with problems with pulling high G manuvers. Firstly, do riggers who are rigging suffer the effects of blackout and redout? whether or not they do, it would probably be desirable to keep blood going to the right places. In this vein would some sort of blood pump or something be useful? What bonuses might it give?
In a similar vein would it be useful to have some sort of cyber gyro or headware INS system to help cope with zero-G effects? Are there rules for zero-G somewhere? Just so you know where this is coming from I was toying with the idea of a rigger who was a former suborbital or semiballistic pilot. Questions? Ideas? |
