Hey hey.

After a few years break from SR a friend of mine decided to start a new campaign, which lead me to come up with a character concept. My main problem with this character is I cant specifically remember how the rules on Recoil comp works in SR3 and while I am sitting in Japan atm my books are back in Europe.

As for my character my idea is for him to be an X-machine gunner who retired from the army and had his cyber removed or severely downgraded. In his past he had a Cyberarm with a built-in Gyromount and almost as much strength as possible built into the thing to help him manage the weapon during engagements.

So basically my question is (not having been a grunt at any time and being far away from my books) would a cyberarm with strength increases be used when calculating Recoil comp or will it be the average strength of the entire body.

The only recoil rules I remember are the ones from Fields of Fire with every other point of Str from 5 and up gave one point of recoil comp.
