2225: Contrary to all logic, it is actually safer to keep the squishy NPCs we've been trusted to guard with us at all times, rather than leave them behind with only the Bear Shaman to protect them. It is easier to heal their bullet wounds than to un-kidnap them all.
2226: Don't try to make the rigger physically accompany you into anyplace, because, even though he has five body, and should be capable of sustaining damage, he will inevitably try to play with any drones/vehicles he comes across, and, being a dwarf, will want to ride them in order to make himself feel taller. While this can be comical, zipping around at "honk-honk WHEEEEE!!!" speed on a very top-heavy forklift drone often leads to "honk-honk CRAAASSH!!" accidents. It is safer to let him be all otaku in his van/back at the base. 2227: There is no such thing as a "nice" toy factory in Shadowrun. They are all actually full of toy-looking combat drones. 2228: Staplers are barely capable of being used as an improvised club weapon, and cannot be taken as an "Exotic Ranged Weapon" skill. 2228a: However, they could be an "Exotic Throwing Weapon"... 2229: Bucket of hamsters plus a touch pool full of rays and sharks does not equal a cheap alternative form of entertaining myself while the rest of the team is doing things that require tact and subtlety. |

QUOTE (Hartbaine @ Sep 13 2009, 05:32 PM) 613. When the PCs are low on supplies I'm no longer permitted to have a creepy guy in a blue longcoat, standing next to a blue torch flag them over and offer to sell them supplies by repeating "Whad're ya buyin'?" "Whad're ya sellin?" and consistently refer to them all as 'Stranger'. (Kudos to anyone who gets the reference, I had the table floored with a brief intermission while we waited for pizza one evening.) 613a. If I violate rule 613 he may not sell the street sam a revolver called the broken butterfly. |
