A N00B question here if ever there was one. Since I haven't actually played SR, I don't how actaully how deadly the game can be. If I have a Troll, with 6 Atrribute spent on Body, that gives me 11 right? How much further can I crank this with Cyber?
Plus, what kind of punishment could such a character take? Small Arms? Heavy Weapons? Satisfy my curiosity! |
