...and which is not ever mentioned in the book again, except to say magicians buy manatech goodies. What are, or perhaps were, given their seeming omission from the book, manatech goodies? Speculation? |

Actually no.
But people who've been around here for a while and remember the mentions of a couple of items left out of SOTA64 will have a hint of what we're planning. |

you can have gun weapon foci. they are useful for beating people to death with your gun. you can also have bullet weapon foci, for that matter. which would certainly help, because it's awfully hard to kill someone by pummelling them to death with a bullet. |

Suddenly, I get the image of someone pummeling a go ganger with the broad side of the bullet and the bullet firing at just the right moment...

I assume emo's power armor is powered through a specific blood ritual that involves us looking at the stats and then killing him for it? :D
