[Shadowrunner13]

OK, I've been GMing SR for many a year now. It's been forever since I've been in the PC role, but one of my players wants to take another crack at GMing (he tried a few years ago, but couldn't come up with new ideas and so gave up), allowing me to try my hands at the other side of the fence.

Now, I looked around and couldn't find an answer to this question, so I thought I'd bring it here to the rest of you.

1) Armor layering... Form-Fitting Body Armour is supposed to be immune to the layering rules, right? What about cybernetic armor? If I put 4 points of ablative armor on the character's chest (cyber torso), that provides 8 Ballistic and 8 Impact worth of armor on a character with a Quickness of 5... will this cost me Combat Pool?

2) Converting an Ammo Bin... The bike I am considering for the character comes stock with a 1 CF Ammo Bin, but I have no intention of mounting a weapon on it (it's an escape vehicle, not a law magnet :) ). I didn't find anything in Rigger 3 (original version) that covered a hidden compartment, so could the Ammo Bin double for it? Or has anyone developed a vehicle mod for a hidden storage compartment?

Thanks!
