Can I call a shot with my dikoted Ares Viper Slivergun and ignore armor while having sex with my ally spirit (assuming I paid for dinner)?

You are misinterpreting my remarks. I'm sure it is deliberate.

what good would having a gun dikoted do? now a dikoted manifested spirit could be fun to play around with. assuming that the manifest was strong enough to survive being dipped in the plasma hot dikote bath.

What about a Dikote Spirit? Would that be the child of a Salamander and a Gnome (Spirit of the Earth Thing?) OR the child of a Fire and Earth Elemental?

Not quite. How about the offspring of an ally spirit in the form of a furnace and a Gnome (Meta-varient)? :grinbig: P.S. Furnace is Dikoted also. |

That's a logical fallacy. I learned that when I studied Eastern Philosophy with my kickboxing instructor |

Liar. I'm a street punk who can kill any black belt, but then I went to the mystical kung-fu dojo and can cast magic spells.
And if you don't munch your characters, you aren't roleplaying properly and are doing a disservice to your players. And you used the word canon. Die. ~J Postscript: where did Wrathful Buddha go, anyway? |

You ex post facto'd my ipso facto ying yang [latin phrase here] whangdoodle. stop that.
These thread are only good for the silly because they have no emotional attachment or content like is generated by a legitimate thread. It's a lost cause. |

So, does anyone else get random phrases stuck in their head? I've been dealing with a few for the past year or so... mostly "7.65 mm rifle" and "buy a shotgun and head for the hills".
On a side note, in Spriggan/Striker Yu Ominae is noted as having a 7.65 mm rifle. Does this caliber actually exist or was it a mistake for 7.62? (Specifically it was in Spriggan/Striker and the Forest of No Return) ~J |

Man, the rules for combat in this cyberpunk fantasy game bare no bearing to reality!
PS: What if I turned my dikoted Ally spirit into FFBA and stacked it with another dikoted Ally spirit in the form of a Secure Jacket ? |

There are absolutely no problems with the rules in SR because a good GM can make anything work and anyone that believes otherwise is a worthless rollplayer that has sex with munchkins and gay wookies every night.
I've banned the following from my games because they're overpowered. Artwinkulation Mnemonic enhancer Smartlinks Wired Reflexes Assault rifles Datajacks Cybereyes Ex-explosive ammo Elves Silencers |

Nu-uh... I could have sworn there was some obscure and misquoted rule that I heard about second hand that says I'm right and you are wrong.

I don't have my books with me right now, but I'm sure you haven't accomplished your goal. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I just like to type and make you read what I type even if I respect you so little that I won't take the time to look it up. Sexcuse my spelling, but my time is so important and my words are so important that you should be able to figure it out even if my memory isn't so good and did I say that maybe it's a house rule but I don't remember which is a house rule and which isn't because I can't afford to buy the books or take the time to search previous postings but you know what I mean and can you tell me your best designed spells to cast while in the matrix using our house rules because this is a contest and I'll award a prize to the one who wins the game.

Coffee or watching together newest BTL chips?
And if you sleep with underage spirit, will spirit police come and arrest you? |

So I have to wait 18 years before I can have sex with my dikoted loa possessed kami ally spirit? That just doesn't seem fair... is that a canon ruling? Because if you can't quote it book and page, it's a house rule. And you know what we do with house rulers around here. Get a rope. |
