721. I may not build a ridiculous com unit cluster for the sole purpose of attacking the Stuffershack's security spider (or equivalent) with 20+ grade 6 agents all at the same time.
722. I may not create magical artifacts based off of artifacts from Syfy's Warehouse 13, GURP's warehouse 23 or any other such.
723. Sending in a naked troll street sami covered in glowpaint and Christmas lights to dance in front of security is not a clever distraction, they will not fall for it. It's also cruel and unusual punishment for all involved.
724. No you may not add the zeppelin upgrade to your Horizon-Doble Revolution. It's ridiculous and nothing good will come of it.

I am glad you got the reference. I loved playing that game. I may just get it out for old times sake. And yes I have done it in Shadowrun games too. That is why I am banned from any characters involving demolitions. The GM wanted a pink mohawk campaign, so I gave him one. Big movie like explosions galore. Of course, I was also a mage so with trid phantasm the explosion weren't always real.

I was a player in
Survival of the Fittest and we were on a run to redecorate the penthouse of the Wuxing tower. Our ninja guy Zet (short for Zetsumei) went in under cover to gain intel. We didn't hear from him. After a few hours past his scheduled check-in, the team began to toss around ideas for a rescue. I, playing a decker/thief named Car, did a little hacking. I penetrated their executive personnel files and downloaded the dossiers of the top 15 people employed at the building. Then I transferred them to hardcopy, put them in my briefcase, and walked into the building and into the office of the HR director. I started laying down dossiers on his desk. Rather quickly I ended up in holding. Unfortunatley Zet wasn't there. I also discovered why he hadn't checked in. Apparently anything above the first floor was RF shielded. It was around this time that the rest of the team realized that Car had wandered off without telling anyone of his plans again. I broke out of the cell and met up with Zet. We started to try to sneak up to the penthouse, avoiding the copious alarms my departure from security set off. Suddenly the building began to quake and the air was filled with a deafening crescendo of alarms and explosions. It turned out that our close combat specialist, a dual-katana weilding nightmare named Tanitha, decided to 'screw it' and saturated the front of the building with rocket fire before driving the van into the lobby. Tanitha was rather well known for both her lack of patience and zeal for destruction. Our mage, Kildaire, and our merc, BC, stayed in the van laid down supression fire while Tanitha, Zet, me, and our shaman Max went up to do the job. The violence of the building attack combined with extraterritoriality meant that we were done before any organized security could intervene. We made it out and hijacked a large yacht and took it back to Seattle. Strangely enough, none of us were ever offered work in Hong Kong again. Go figure.
