How do you keep from getting mind-raped by magicians with mind control spells? It seems like you could just have one dude walk in on your whole team of 'runners, drop a mass-suggestion spell, and order everyone to surrender.

I mean yeah, that's what magic support is for on your team, but what if your group doesn't have a caster? He's passed out from drain, got himself killed already, he's in another room, etc.?

I just don't see how a non-awakened character is supposed to deal with stuff like this. There's not even any kind of "mental discipline training" in the martial arts rules to help people resist this sort of thing.
