reading close over some of the NPCs in the 1st part of Ghost Cartels, I found xa firebird with a game hiccup....

he has both reaction enhancers and wired reflexes, which in SR4 p335 states wired reflexes cannot work with any other initiative enhancements
his reaction reads 4(7), which i have no problem with

its the iniative that gets weird
init.: 11(12)

I would understand 7(11), but not 11 (12)

any help here or is this just an errata that slipped through the cracks

Mainly, I want to make sure I am running the NPCs right for my game, as I am starting the Ghost Cartels with a pre-mission before jumping into the main stream

thanks

This was discussed in the main Shadowrun discussion forum...my "searchfu" is a little weak right now after running my home game, so I can't direct you to the exact thread.

However, it's somewhere in there...sorry I can't be more specific!

Hope this helps you find the answers you're looking for (and so we don't have to worry about rehashing this topic:)

The official errata states both the writer and editor were smoking crack and tempo at the same time.

This is the end result.

Sorry.
