Everyone knows the first commandment of Shadowrunning that God handed down to Moses on Mount Sinai - Thou shalt geek the mage before any other.
This begs the question, who do you geek second. Which archetype is so universally dangerous that you should consentrat all f your deathdealing upon after you have returned the enemy magician to the soft bosom of the creator? Please, voice your opinions. |
