Well, the way I see it is,that no one is going to make mechs.At least for combat in earth.
I do see powered armour and I do see them getting to be rather large..But I mean I see them as ranging from 2.5-4 meters tall and about 1.5-2.5 depending on the meta race in them. But I think anything larger would just make to big of a target. But back to my point, can you make reasonable powered suits in shadowrun,and how would you do it? And why are cyberlimbs so janky? I have looked them over and for all the coolness factor you can get from them,they seem to be like not as good as the muscle replacement,and bone lacing. But you say they look like they are made of crom,and that's cool. You can get dermal plating to do that,or a tatoo or something... |
