From time to time I thought that it would be fun to make a mundane character with no cyberware as a challenge and do well in the game just through careful strategy during firefights.
The first such character I made was a demented demolitions person who only had Pistols 3 and Unarmed Combat 3 or somesuch as offensive abilities. The second character was a Dirty Harry ripoff with a high Pistols skill but the only weapon he ever carried was a Ruger Warhawk and if he wasn't expecting trouble he would never carry more than 6 rounds for it and furthermore he would never ever use speed loaders. Furthermore, he always wore a three piece suit and *never* any armor, so he couldn't even afford to get hit. I actually had a lot of fun with these characters because I had to play smart and hide from the enemies a lot. The Dirty Harry guy was especially a lot of fun because of his SS attack rate, his vulnerability, and his really slow reloading. I would delay actions and time things so that I could Change Posture, Aim, Fire, Change Posture. Did you ever try something similar? Did you enjoy it, or did you find it frustrating? |
