Ok all you rule guru's heres a tuffy.

A conversation started in another thread concerning how to handle stun vs a vehicle came up(see quotes below), so as not to hijack the other thread i am moveing this question to it's own thread .

The question is how would you handle stun waepons vs soemthing with no stun track?


Hers what has been said so far.

A Body 2 rotor drone with no armor can pretty much be disabled with a baseball bat

Actually i didn't think you can since drones have no stun track...

(Mutie) Interesting point but wouldn't that mean that the stun is deemed exceeded and moves into physical damage .

My argument being that just because you don't have a stun track shouldn't mean you are immune to stun taking a baseball bat to a car may not disable the car ( mostly because it can soak) but against a 0 body spider drone should pretty much finish it off. I would hate to live in a world where i can't kick in the television screen because it has no stun track

The "No stun track" bit can lead to some really odd situations in Shadowrun.

Big Willy the Troll is pissed off at his Fixer, so he decides to total her car. He pulls out a sledgehammer and spends 20 minutes beating on it, with no effect. Cooling down, he decides to play it smart and pulls out his trusty Cougar Fineblade. In around 30 seconds the car falls apart, sliced to bits by the pocketknife.
